Some updates from my friend Danny:

Cage is done, now waiting on my dimple dies to get here.

Harbor freight Notching. Not the best but it works well after a little touching up with the grinder

Plasma cutter doing werk

My Powered by Max subframe risers came in the mail today along with some other goodies. I'll edit in the picture I took of that stuff later on.

ballinnmiami240sx · 11-12-2009, 08:32 PM

nice build man ... its going fassst .

ballinnmiami240sx · 11-13-2009, 09:36 PM

Put about 4 hours into one tub today. Damn that was a bitch. Now I have to make the other side match......

Im not done underneat, but you get the idea. Stephen plans to run this car super low on some rediculous size wheels and tire set up next year. We planned ahead and made up some clrearance to fit dunk ride rims on here.

godrifttoday · 11-13-2009, 09:50 PM

wow that came out really good i bet it must have been easy with the plasma

95KA-Turbo · 11-14-2009, 12:03 AM

I got to see these in person tonight, I am extremely pleased with them (they came out exactly like I wanted).

Big Big Big thanks to Patrick (sonomadrifter) for meeting with me at VIR and letting me steal his tub design

. We used different dimensions to allow for a little more clearance, but the shape stayed the same.

S14.Kouki.808 · 11-14-2009, 12:17 AM

you take good pictures.

sonomadrifter · 11-15-2009, 02:26 PM

COPY CAT!

Looks good man.

Pure_JDM · 11-15-2009, 02:36 PM

damn... the cage is tight, the tubs are SUPER nice, and i can't wait to see the rest...

mothon · 11-15-2009, 05:12 PM

I see you actually are notching out the upper frame rail to allow more tire clearance. Thats the exact same thing that i was wanting to do to my car. What gauge metal are you going to use to reinforce it?

ballinnmiami240sx · 11-16-2009, 07:08 AM

Im putting in 14ga plate back in. Im working on finishing that today.

EccentricAces · 11-16-2009, 08:01 AM
