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. As they delve into the intricate process of modifying the car for quarter-mile supremacy, challenges arise, particularly in the realm of turbo fitment and chassis design.
Amidst the chaos of the build, Emelia contemplates the possibility of transplanting a vr30 engine into the GTR, sparking discussions on performance enhancements and potential future projects. The team's meticulous attention to detail extends to considerations of weight reduction, tire fitment, and the utilization of factory brakes, all while maintaining the essence of the Z's interior. As the project gains momentum, Emelia's friends Daniel and Jeremiah join the fray, bringing their expertise to the table and pushing the boundaries of innovation in the build.
With Deeds overseeing the crucial chassis setup for optimal speed and stability, the team sets their sights on a groundbreaking steering wheel configuration, aiming to maximize control and performance on the drag strip. As the days fly by and the deadline looms ever closer, Emelia and her crew press on, tackling challenges head-on and inching closer to the realization of their high-octane vision. From wheel design to interior modifications, each step in the build brings them closer to unleashing the full potential of the transformed Nissan Z, promising an adrenaline-fueled journey to automotive excellence.
