This is one of the biggest milestones in the entire project. Getting a modern Nissan 370Z rear setup to fit inside a classic Datsun shell was never going to be easy — clearances, mounting points, alignment… everything had to be spot on.
In this episode, we:
Fit the 370Z rear cradle into the chassis
Dial in positioning and alignment
Fully weld it in place
Push the build one step closer to SEMA
This build is all about going all out — fully bespoke fabrication, no shortcuts, and making something you don’t see every day.
If you’ve been following the build, this is a BIG moment 👀
Next up is the Custom suspension, so keep a look out for the next video.
