Baggsy – February | March 2021 & The Start Of The #LSXR35 Rebuild

February 2021, the shortest month of the year!

January went by pretty quick for us this year, and with another month rolling around we are still in deep with multiple builds here at the SB Motorsport HQ.
This wasn’t without our – out of workshop trips to partners though!

Early on in the month we headed to our awesome Wrap & Vinyl sponsor, @FLSLTD. Where we had some patch work completed on the race van. This was a result in installing the side window, so the guys replaced the logos we had to cut off the side. 
February was a month of snow in the UK, and as we don’t get snow that often, it was a big deal to most.

This was also the week we collected the freshly painted #LSXR35 shell back from @BoltonBodyWorks.
The #SB350z is also near completion, with the @Garrettmotion G25-660 turbo mounted. Next step is the radiator & intercooler.
We started our LSX engine rebuild, which will be installed into the #S13V8 for this year.

At the end of last year, we decided to completely strip and rebuild this fire breathing V8, to make sure 2021 saw nothing but reliability for the car.
The last few days of Feb were our busiest, with the rebuild and Version 3 of the GT-R. A newly painted shell, subframes, steering arms and suspension ready to go on, all in the first few days.
March 2021. With what seemed to be a very quick February, we rolled into the third month of the year primarily focusing on the rebuild of the #LSXR35. 

The bare shell quickly became a rolling shell within a few weeks. Documenting every nut and bolt being fastened onto the car. Filming the progress of the build as it happens.
The front & rear subframes installed, @RadiumEngineering Fuel Cell in place, wiring harness and steering column all fitted.
Now it was time to test fit the new Version 3 @LibertyWalkSilhouette bodykit for the first time. Reportedly the only kit to be shipped to Europe!
This is shaping up to be our best, or even coolest version yet!

Keep watching our socials to keep track of the progress.

March was also the month we announced that we have partnered up with @FunkMotorsport in our 2021 race program.

Their quality products ready for the #S13V8 and the rebuilt LSXR engine install.

With the delay of our #PS13V8 coming back from Oman, we decided to make a few upgrades to the S13 to make it a competitive beast for the UK drift championships. 
This included moving the whole cooling system to the rear of the car to work more efficiently, and a custom exhaust using all @VibrantPerformance parts. 
To end off the month, Baggsy collected his new race trailer from Fleet Livery Solutions LTD, who have been wrapping the Brian James Transporter in the 2019/2020 GT-R Baggsy livery.

Another show piece from Ash and the guys at @FLSLTD!
Baggsy – “Both February and March were great months for us, and I’m super excited to show you what has been happening in the lead up to this years event season.”

“And… my new GT-R Version 3”
