5NDIME Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Are the front and rear windows lexan as well? May I ask where you sourced them? They sure look to be with the non-glass glare. But may just be the light. Quote Link to comment
Bart's 510 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 No videos yet.I did just one test day before they closed Midwest tracks for winter.I post some videos in few months:) Windshield and quarter windows are lexan rear is stock glass for now.Front was custom made by stock car shop and sides I made myself.Front was expensive As I remember I paid $350 for it.We made 5 of them it was minimum order to make them.You can email Steve Bonk he arranged whole deal.datsunracing75 at aol.com Quote Link to comment

HudsonMC Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 You use Don's (DP Racing) pedal box as well? What were your impressions of it? Quote Link to comment
Bart's 510 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Yes I have pedal box modified by Design Products,not the easiest one to install but I like it a lot.Pedal is very firm with 280zx front calipers,short travel and balance bar helps to dial front to back bias.I am using Porterfield front pads and even without brake ducts at nearly 100 degred F few weeks ago at the track I had plenty of brakes.Zero overheating problems. 1 Quote Link to comment

That's great. My impression is that the DP pedal box is bolt in except for the hole in the firewall? Quote Link to comment
Bart's 510 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 It is bolt on after you weld supplied plate to the firewall and drill few extra holes:) Quote Link to comment
