Chassis strengthening.

Hey gents.

Im going to create a post regarding the chassis and how to strengthen it.

Currently in my build im at a stage of rust repair, pannel replacement and seam welding.

I'd like to gather some info off members about this to share with the community.

I have seen a nismo diagram or areas where to strengthen the chassis and will post up along with my personal pics.

Front anti roll bar mounts are a common place to split, Had to have mine welded up

Is this for motorsport use or genral body work. As i have no rear floor , no ineer arches etc and soon to have no roof id love to hear your suggestions

I'd scrap it mate but don't expect much as most of it appears to be missing lol.

Id scrap it too but the the mould for the roof and rear floor would be such a waste

yep rails around arbs are a big weak point
floor pan to inner sill
also the front outriggers aren't very strong either due to the shape of them, not sure what you can really do about that though!
