changing out the 17" original step lips Equips (not original specs at all tho)
http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0703.jpg to 18" meisters http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0736.jpg also. am trying to find a pair of USDM zenki headlights with good mounting points (that are under 200) so I can build another set of the chaser retrofit headlights and make a thread on the process. for now here's the couple pics i did take: all you need from the zenki headlight http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0577.jpg shaved down chaser headlight http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0578.jpg chaser guts in the zenki frame http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0579.jpg after everything has completely cured http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0575.jpg |
Off to very nice and clean start....did buy those headlights or fully customized? Looking for a set of headlights myself....
|

one year later.....and nothing much has gotten done:
tubbed the front fenders http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_2339.jpg thought this was the way it was going to go..... http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...c4a99a466c.png sold the built 1.5JZ and picked up these, all very similar specs, to fit with the ZG flares http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_3207.jpg ....then this happened http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_3691.jpg now need to sell all those wheels and pick up ones that will fit the TRA V2 flares without needing 30mm spacers. |
Subscribed. Loving the build. Any pics of how much did you shave off of the back of the zenki housing?

If not those then I am not sure what you are asking about. |
Sorry my bad lol, I meant the zenki headlight housings for the chaser retrofit and do you have any pics of the back of the headlights after completion? Also how is the light distribution at night with them?
|
This is the housing without the plastic or chrome lenses:
http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0536.jpg This is all that was needed for the retrofit: http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0577.jpg Chaser headlight housing trimmed down to necessity: http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0578.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0580.jpg Glued and sealed http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_0575.jpg Honestly the light output isnt terrible, but I would not want to be driving in the mountains at night with any rain or fog. The light is there its just not directed correctly. If/when I build another set I will more than likely retrofit a LHD correct projector setup into the chaser housings. |
Thanks for the info. I was considering this as an option if I don't retrofit my current headlights. I have jdm housings with clear lenses at the moment and the output is terrible lol. The chaser retrofit with proper projectors does sound interesting though.
|
Omfg, if I still had a Zenki front end I'd LOVE to hav those headlights! They're gorgeous!!!
|
Love it! Where did you find that v2 widebody? I can only seem to locate v1
|
Holy shit that kit makes those wheels look like 15s lol. Sick build. Being from Georgia, I've heard about the great work you guys do up at Koru Works. Subbed.

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...4/IMG_4496.jpg progress is near turtle pace |
Even unfinished it looks badass. What color are you guys thinking of going with?
|
Red on red with fancy color wheels
|
TEAM BLUE or BUST!!
|
Stein the s14 won't be part of the TeamRowdy blue, but the cressy will be
|
Are those s13 fender flares? Could you get a better shot of the side/ rear quarter?
|
Awesome Build!
Loving the Trakyoto kit on this. |
yes they were meant for the s13 hatch. they somewhat fit the s14 since not that big of a difference.
thanks tougefactory! |
Had to register on forum 'cause I'm in love with your RB build :drool:
Has there been any progress lately ? :) |
Currently building up the motor and making sure everything is nice and fresh while waiting on HKS cams. Picked up some new wheels that should fit the flares better. 18x11.5-30 rears. Still waiting on the fronts which will be 18x9.5-35.
One of the rears http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...45001281_n.jpg |
horry shet
|
I can't wait to see this car finished. I absolutely love the S13 flares and skirts. How much "massaging" was needed to fit them to the S14?
Props to you sir! |
