With the Behemoth back in our hands, the time has come to focus on getting the Kurtzee RB build up to speed.  The freshly powder-coated coilovers have now been fitted to the car to make it a roller once again so that we can carry on with the chassis stiffening.  We were really excited to see this car back on the ground after sitting by the wayside for some time, now is the big push!!

The chassis will be modified along the same lines as the Behemoth build so that the nearly forty year old body doesn’t destroy itself the first time we step on the “fun” pedal.  It will also allow us to remove the bolt-in roll bar that was previously installed.  The new setup will help provide a more solid feel in the entire car on the street and on the track, oh man these cars are going to be a handful!!

To prep the car for the cage/stiffening we needed to remove every part of the interior.  This isn’t a difficult task but it can be time consuming because you really need to make sure everything is handled properly to prevent damage and labeled accurately to ensure that the re-installation goes smoothly.

I should have some photos in a week or so when it gets out of the fabrication phase.  The car will then be stripped down even further and sent off to William’s Auto Body to have the engine bay cleaned up and resprayed to perfection.  As with all the RB builds that we do, all the holes and parts that are no longer used with the new engine will be removed or smoothed to provide the cleanest engine bay possible.

As you read a week ago HERE, we recently received all the parts for the ZCG Big Brake Kit that has been a few years in the dreaming/engineering phase and I am happy to report that all of the custom CnC’d brackets have been given a beautiful black anodized finish.  We can’t thank Ken over at Roost Billet Products enough for donating so much of his time and hard work for this project, the quality is amazing and rest assured it doesn’t get any better than this for a 240z.

There are a few more photos after the ‘read more.’

The wheels that are on the car in the picture blow are just to roll it around!!  Please don’t send me hate mail!!  Thanks.
