Very nice and clean! Looks like a totally different car from the Zenki it was before.

timlush · 03-08-2009, 07:03 PM

Is there a reason you didn't use the braided line/AN fittings for the radiator hoses this time?

GSXRJJordan · 03-08-2009, 07:11 PM

Car looks good! Maybe kouki or LED tails, a rear diffuser, Gracer or equally low pro front lip, to go with those skirts?

gsracer · 03-12-2009, 12:30 PM

yea im getting a lip but i havent decided what to do with the rear, maybe a diffuser or something.

Heres my latest idea, more power

SicBastard · 03-12-2009, 01:10 PM

F'ng brilliant! The lower part of the VH intake manifold being all nice and flat on top is just begging for someone to fabricate a SC mount. Is that SC from a cobra?

highwhey_14 · 03-12-2009, 07:12 PM

I envy you so much.

chairmnofthboard · 03-13-2009, 11:21 PM

Awesome!!!

I FUCKING LOVE YOU!!!

now is it me or does it look like the lower intake manifold on the front cylinders can be used on all 8? if so it would make it easier to adapt that super charger I would think.

dirtdiggler666 · 03-15-2009, 01:24 PM

i hope its a cobra blower they sound so cool and make good power dooooooooooooooooooooit

or if you have cash get the kennybell

Kenne Bell lol - and going centrifugal would probably be cheaper if you're not buying used OEM (junkyard) stuff.

SicBastard · 03-15-2009, 09:50 PM

Cobra blowers are cheap as all hell and good for 500 whp. Plus positive discplacement rules all over centrifigals, especially if you can fabricate an intercooler into your manifold.

deolio · 08-19-2009, 12:29 AM

anything new? i love this build.

gsracer · 08-19-2009, 09:02 AM

well , ive been driving and beating the piss out of it, drifting and such. Its been holding up good.

latest update well not really update because ive not finished is

Custom cams, with custom titanium super tech retainers and custom supertech valve springs. Thanks to our good friends at Mazworx.

These will be going on the car shortly with a rebuilt bottom end, for some high rpm n/a (for now) power.

pics

Heres a few action shots

Def · 08-19-2009, 10:04 AM

Nice - specs on the cams? Did you just regrind, hardface them, or get some billets made?

gsracer · 08-19-2009, 10:42 AM

They are regrinds, the car that tested these out saw a 40whp increase and useable power all the way to 8000rpm BEFORE tuning.

heres the specs
stock
Advertised Duration 240* Intake, 240* Exhaust
Duration @ 0.050" lift 177* Intake, 176* Exhaust
Maximum valve lift 0.368" Intake, 0.355" Exhaust

new cams
Advertised Duration 272* Intake, 272* Exhaust
Duration @ 0.050" lift 185* Intake, 185* Exhaust
Maximum valve lift 0.420" Intake, 0.405" Exhaust

Def · 08-19-2009, 01:42 PM

Nice - approximate cost? I imagine they just drop in too right?

gsracer · 08-19-2009, 01:48 PM

mazworx has them listed for 1150, they do drop in but valve springs at the very least are required

Shift n Drift · 09-07-2009, 10:26 PM

you are the man,

how much was motor/harness/and ecu?

S14_Kouki · 09-07-2009, 10:33 PM

I guess zenki's are not for everyone

jspec240 · 09-07-2009, 10:37 PM

I knew you were gonna supercharge it!!! Awesome Youtube some of this shit!!

gsracer · 09-10-2009, 08:06 PM

heres a preview

rican_nick · 09-10-2009, 08:14 PM

oh my. damn

Tantwoforty · 09-10-2009, 09:20 PM

oh my god...

teamsprock · 09-10-2009, 09:51 PM

Someday when my children have grown up and moved away and zilvia is just a distant memory... I will build a car like this in my garage as an old man and drive around smiling, knowing how sweet my car has finally become! I loved the first build and I really love seeing the different forced induction setups. Continue with the good work!

atcclude · 09-11-2009, 11:16 AM

you're a freak! i wanna ride in this car homie.

nismo 240sx · 09-11-2009, 11:25 AM

so next time i see one of these

i'll be sure to call that thing a 275 GTB-DOHC

gsracer · 09-11-2009, 11:56 AM

wtf??

msglnth

ranger240 · 09-11-2009, 02:20 PM

everyone calls that car a 275 GTB-4 or a quad cam V8 opposed to the 'regular' 275 gtb with the sohc heads

having to explain a joke kinda ruins it

but anyway, your car is awesome, i remember you were a bit discouraged a while back when it was converted from a great navan-zenki to a fender flared black kouki but im glad you pulled through and finished it (for now)

keep up the awesome work man

gsracer · 09-11-2009, 02:48 PM

thanks, for the compliments,
