The pic showing the motor from head-on has the headers going forward then down and back. Looks funny but hey...BIG V8+350z chassis= do whatever it takes to make the darn thing work.

I do not like the roll cage on a roadster, if it's stictly a race car, why not use a coupe? Althought in that last pic, with those exhaust manifolds coming to the front like that, and the TB right there, it looks like a nice spot to stick some TT's

Nissan wanted him to do a convertable for marketing reasons.. Plus it is a TON lighter.

The cage is awesome in person, one of the best that I've seen. Gary Castillo @ Designcraft is the MAN!!

The motor is going to be N/A, the headers are going to dump out at the front fender.

I like the sticker on the windshield better. "Too close for missiles, switching to guns"

i'll take that over a poo poo platter anyday! I can't wait to see that mods and actuall hp numbers with the z having a much more effeceint drivetrain then a titan. Also I'm guessing there's going to be a very trick hood made to grace that brawny engine. Perfect 10 for originality!!!
