MADBUZ Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 So alot of you will know of this ute as Cheater_5 build. A wee while ago now I was lucky enough to purchase this bad boy, and have loved every moment of it. When I took ownership Chris had done all the hard work with fitting the sr20de and 5speed to match, exhaust, coilovers, coupe front brakes, reset rear leafs, stiffened shocks, 260z seats, modified tunnel... The list goes on and on. A real credit to Chris for building it to the point to where I took over. A lot of trial and error, experimenting etc.. Since I have owned it I have fixed some rust, drive shaft hoops and other small thing that would be needed for a cert. when I took it for cert, got a big shock with work that needed to done. Stuff like: fuel tank bash plate reweld coilovers and crack test, reduce camber, raise ride height, new gear box x member, a few small things really. So as of now I'm upgrading the brakes as cert man said it wouldn't be enough. So with some luck will have that sorted in the next few days and then back for recheck.

MADBUZ Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Got my adapter plates back today. Looks mint. Changed design a little and went for a thicker plate. Away for the weekend so might give it a nudge on Sunday night? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
