damn that's absolutely jaw dropping!!! Why no sequential trans instead of the 350z?

Wow! What a fantastic build.

Will there be video? I'm dying to see that car in motion!

probably in about 2 weeks there should be a video up. race is this weekend and need some time to edit videos etc.

Which class are you running in?

It's going to be difficult to beat the past records set by the french ;)

Can I ask a, perhaps, dumb question? How come the swap to a Z33 Transmission? Is it because the factory trans is made of glass? Or because custom gear sets aren't readily available? Or is it some other reason?

Beauty overall package btw!

Well our first pick was going to be a Holinger but it couldn't be done in time and for the power it wasn't going to hold. But yes you're correct about the factroy trans isn't the best trans. So we went with a z33 because cost wise and how easy it is to find them. You can even get them from factory brand new for really cheap. Also we knew that OS giken made gear sets for the car which made us go with the idea. With only 2 month to get the car ready we didn't have much of a choice.

Was a t56 not an option?

What are the OSG ratios?

I know Brian installed them for you.

In case no one has seen it yet:
