Re: Project Greenstone.

Mental Note to self Check my Mats
Re: Project Greenstone.
FINALLY !!!!! I got a package today containing my brake upgrade !! Ok, so it`s only the calipers for now, discs I have from racing days but bells will now have to be made..
Once the brakes are complete I will give her a tentative run around Zwartkops..


These are all 4pot Brembo Mono blocks which I prefer to the usual side bolted jobbies.
From a Porsche something or another.
The rears are also 4 pot but sized appropriately for use on the rear .The fronts are just humungus mothers !!

Not really...It`s who you know in life that makes things easier...
There is a blue Porsche Turbo in the shop that has extensive rust under the battery tray . Unfortunately the left side torsion mount is also under this area. I am fixing this in lue of the brake calipers for the client.

im more inlove with her now.
i must say you showing her the respect and giving her the treatment she deserves.
She looks the same but it doesnt feel the same, I like the ride very precise and its remarkably responsive at altitude.
car look amazing and i love the subtle changes.
i enjoyed the visit and i must say you have a stunning workshop with lots of toys, esp the Datsun 120Y.
Then the alfas and then the imports s14.
Enjoy see you again!

and I FINALLY got my intermittent wipers working...after buying new switches, units, modules, I found it was as simple as an earth problem !! Faaark ! Well, at least it`s all working as it should. Next up is the ABS system...


Re: Project Greenstone.
Latest update.....no, not yet, only more suspension stuff...I am almost done with the complete suspension. Car is a rocket, handles brilliantly although it will only confirm this all at the track.
front setup so far..

and the rear.
Guys, you want the best out of your Nissan S chassis ? Do the suspension ! Period. You will not regret it at all !

Re: Project Greenstone.
How much is this costing you?
Driving is not my hobby, it keeps me sane
