What Did You Do To Your Busa, Today?

[ColdBusa]

Cut the cross member on the frame and buffed it down.
Also removed a whole pile of stuff off the frame. I think I have a but of work ahead of me...

I am not going to short neck it. But I am putting an offset to it.

Please explain? Short neck and rake?

Essentially, short necking the frame allows you to drop the front end event further rather than just sliding the forks up the tubes. Done to get the front end down to extreme low height for drag racing. See the pic attached how a portion of the frame is cut out.
As for rake or offset, we offset or bring the tire in towards the engine, so we can put the rear tire out further. Puts that much more weight over the front tire. Again, for drag racing.
Hope that answers it for ya.

Hi. I am going to order the CP pistons and Carrillo rods on Monday! A GIRL ran a stop light I totaled her 2015 SUV with my 1997 Ford F150. I will have money left over to buy a 2005 Chevy truck with only 76000 miles for $1000. I will drive the Chevy untill I get a used bumper for the Ford then sell the Chevy.

Rode mine for the first time after swapping in a new motor yesterday! All is well, gotta adjust the thrust adjusters and replace the rear sprocket. Now onto some more go fast parts! Hahahaha

Hi. How about the bolts that hold the calipers together and the bleeders? I have changed all mine to Ti. We lose 1 gram at a time.
