In a thrilling collaboration with Nissan, EmeliaHartford embarks on a daring mission to transform a Nissan Z into a ferocious drag car using the powerhouse vr38 engine from a Nismo GTR. With the clock ticking and the pressure mounting, Emelia enlists the help of her trusty team, including the likes of Josh and Baker, to strip the Z down to its very core in preparation for a complete chassis overhaul.
