350Z SR20DET Drift Car Build :)

[SR 240Z]

Well the man behind my blog site is Joey Todaro who has been a friend of mine since we were in high school. He does all the graphic design, logo work, and upkeep with the blog as far as the look and function of it.

I made a new post about his site http://www.jdmftw.com on my blog which you can check out the full post at: http://www.drftmytail.com

Aside from basically completely tearing apart the 240z we now want to re-do some things for better selection of wheels and aftermarket parts so we are swapping to mostly all S13 suspension/brake setup.

The 350z I am waiting on my FRP body parts to get here.... Please read the entire post I just put up on http://www.drftmytail.com

Thanks for all your support and thanks to Gruppe-S/Dynamic Autosports!

Another update on the 240z this week! The s13 suspension conversion has been completed, check out the entire post at: http://www.drftmytail.com but here is a little sneak preview for you guys.

Guys, I admit I really lacked on keeping the blog updated. Thankfully, the reason of this happening is because we received multiple customers that wanted to do swap projects so we had to put our projects on hold.

But the wait for an update will be over tomorrow night. We have been hard at work lately and actually switched to a different drivetrain platform. To know what it is you will just have to wait and see a little bit until we get the mock-up done... but it will be turbo!

The body of the 350z has been painted a Satin White and we are going to be painting the rest of the parts tomorrow: doors, fenders, side skirts, and the front/rear bumper. The roof was already previously painted satin black and the hatch and hood may also be painted satin black, we have yet to make the final decision.

Be sure to check it out late tomorrow night or Monday morning: http://www.drftmytail.com or http://www.alexvillabrille.com

OMG!!! I love your car!!!!

I've been swearing up and down since i got my 350z that when the vq35 poops I'm gonna throw in one of my sr's. Did you guys go sr for uniqueness or you have a personal preference on sr?

Me personally I've kinda felt with the six speed and low redline of 6500 the vq was a little awkward for drifting, maybe i'm just used to the sr gearing and ultra high rev capabilities.

Goood Luck keep us posted!

Well the car has finally been painted as promised. Its been a long weekend and we left the shop a mess! Oh well, tomorrow is another day.

Today was another progressive day and got some work done on the car. We modified the temporary suspension we have on the car to get an idea of the stance we want to achieve once our new spring rates arrive and we actually install our track suspension. Installed the Arizona Z Car 6-piston front brakes and 4-pistons rear. Also put on the rear bumper. Pictures are courtesy of Joseph Todaro from http://www.JDMThreads.com

Check out the blog for the complete details and more pictures, but here is a teaser for you:

Car is all painted, 1 set of the MB Battles were painted gold, DigiDash installed and pleanty of other parts installed. Check out the entire blog post for complete details at http://www.alexvillabrille.com but here is a small teaser of how the car sits curently:

I cant believe how long its been since the last update. We have been trying to catch up on all the work we had come into the shop so that now we can make time after hours to work on our projects again.

Motor and trans are now permanently installed which can be seen in the picture attached and also read the entire new blog post at: http://www.alexvillabrille.com

Well we had been hard at work but realized the car wouldn't be ready before I leave to Argentina. So we decided to buy a practice car in the meantime so I can hit events and get some more seat time while we can finish the 350Z at a calmer pace. We will end up upgrading the cam now and do tuning on E85.

I posted a new blog entry over at www.alexvillabrille.com that you can read about the new purchase and the upcoming event I will be attending!

Here is a teaser photo:

I feel bad for the lack of updates to the blog, but we have been working so many hours to do as much customer work as we can during the day and then at night stay after and work on the missile car to get ready for the next and coming track day.

I updated the blog with a long post of what we have been up to lately since before I left to Argentina in September. Here is a sneak preview picture of what we are up to:
