admin — Tue, 07 Nov 2017 06:11:42 +0000

Here are some pics and info on the awesome 370z Nascar Build.

Penske Mopar Nascar Engine all fitted up, with our custom made swirl pot and radiator lines for our rear mounted radiator. Still in the works are our custom made front break line.

Full billet suspension modified by us for massive steering lock and new custom made Racing Logic coilovers.

Rear mounted PWR custom radiator with custom alloy hard piping.

Rear window template designed by us for maximum airflow to our rear mounted radiator.

Steering setup all installed

Modified headers for maximum ground clearance.

Custom designed adapter for the Holinger. All designed in house at JPP.

Clutch and slave setup all in for a trial fit.

Lots of steering lock.

Here are a few picks of the beast in action.

New s15 comp car

Now that we have sold our 180sx shell we decided that JPP needs new comp car. When we came across this cannery yellow S15 that is more then a bit rough around the edges we could resist the challenge. Stay tuned for all the info on this build.

After building a not so missile R33 we decided to send it off to a good home and start again. I don’t have many photos of the build but here a few pics of it now. You would have seen it up at a few QR track days, this will be our practice car while we build our S15.

Now that we have completed our 180sx VE build we have decided to build a R33 missile for the upcoming Drift Matsuri at QR. After matsuri what is left will be driven by Hugo Drift from D1NZ in the Australian Drifting Grand Prix. So here we go…

Our R33 Shell

and the fun begins

Kando dynamics T67 25g fitted, along with 760cc injectors and a nismo fuel reg nearly ready to go back in the car

modified x member moving the rack forward to reduce binding and fix steering angle due to modded knuckles

Found some omori gauges

not so missile looking R33

and now for our wing. In true JPP style we have decided to go with something a little different. Some will love and some will hate it but we think it looks pretty cool.

Now for a bit more paint and some JPP graphics.
