Terk is a member of the family and at the time, I wasn't sure what to do since selling was NOT an option. After a conversation with my brother on what direction we wanted to take with our 1987 300ZX drift build, we decided to abandon ship on that platform and focus on building Terk into our drift project, using the Nissan S-Chassis parts we had acquired and some goods from the 300ZX.


Here is the plan:
Suspension:
ISR S13 coilovers
ISR rear arm set
lots of poly bushings
Z31 front subframe and LCAs
S14 rear subframe
Z31 power rack & pinion

Drivetrain:
6 bolt 4G63t (nothing fancy)
I have a question for ya,even tho this an extremely old post. What all had to be done for the rack and pinion? I'm cutting down a montero xls 4x4 front end to put on my 50. It has rack an pinion but I have to get a narrower one for the fit. Thanks,and love your build too!
