Ev's - R32 Gtr - Targa/sprint/hill Climb Build

[355GTS]

Nah Chris Tanner done my Cage, YT taught him though...

and i have a floor mount Tilton pedal box, so reaching the pedals isn't a drama.,.

Cheers

I just looked up the floor mount pedal box......another thing I hadnt considered. Very interesting indeed. Apart from adjustable floor position, what else do you like about them? Is it the bias adjust-ability? How much hassle is it to fit them? Looks like a dash out job to me, which is going to be hard now the cages extra a pillar supports are going in to my R32.

Brakes going on the 32: AP Racing

I will post some photos of them fitted in a couple of weeks.

you are best to balence the car from the first build. I didn't put a pedalbox in mine cause i'm miserable, but i put the nav seat practicably in the back, which gave me a 56/44 weight distribution with driver and nav in (58/42 static). Most other gtst's are 60/40.

The GT-R have better weight distrobution cause of the heavier rear end, box/transfer case etc. But your still best to move as much as you can as far back as you can. If you don't do it now, you never will

Adjustablity was the key thing, as i tossed my ABS so i needed to be able to adjust front to rear, also more weight down low

the biggest plus is i can now see my starter motor, and unbolt it with ease!!!!, you understand this if you've ever had to pull

a GTR statermotor out..

as for fitting it, yep Dash out, also had to cut a small part of the floor away to make it easier to move back and forth

if i was to do it again, i'd go with the canter lever pedal box, where the cylinders lay flat under the pedals..

Cheers

Seat frame is awesome.

[Roy]

Its good to see more people doing this with seat mounts. Any chance of getting the high point of the back seat frame over the tunnerl tied into the tunnel?

[355GTS]

Do you mean gusset the pipe to the tunnel? I don't see why not ? I suppose that will reinforce the seats even more? Will speak to Andrew Monday about it.

[Roy]

The main hoop has plenty of triangulation so not a big worry truth be told, but will be a nice touch that you see done on plenty of fia saloon cars

UPDATE: cage is all but finished.
