bought some z track wheels this weekend 2/23/2019 to be able to roll the car found them on offerup for $400 with tires in ok condition, might just refinish them and use them for track also

all caught up to date on the build
will update as much as possible with more better/detailed pictures

nice build so far!

what trunk is that with the built in spoiler looks very good.

Thanks dude!
It is the Dmax trunk

Definitely one of the cleanest Zenki’s in SoCal

Can’t wait to see it running again!

Thanks bro
Same goes for your coupe one of the best ones here!

Weren't both of these S14s at Nissan Jam '16? I was there an I thought they were both my idea of 'just right'. Are you keeping them both?

Yeah man 16' haha
You had that hatch there with the s15 seats and TE's right?
Well the black one is my friends which now has the SR that was on my zenki.

Sick!! Really like where this build is going [emoji1689] [emoji1786]

Great progress cant wait to see it finished even though it will be LS :rofl:

Very awesome build man, in for another LS 240. Just remember it’s your car and fuck what anyone else on here or around you thinks. After reading your note about being ref’d that’s really odd. Orange County however has a reputation to uphold. What HP numbers you aiming for with the Erod motor?

In for updates man, this thing is gunna be sweet!:snoop:

Yeah man its cool haha I still have the kouki to keep it jdm haha
Well im planning on leaving it all stock for a while. Nothing can be modified in order to pass inspection but im sure im going to want some more power after a while!

Thanks everyone hopefully it can get done this year!

Subscribed. Same engine and tranny combo as your build so excited to follow your build.

Just in case whoever doesn't know who Snorlax is haha

Got my bell housing in the other day and bolted it up to the case.

Started to pull out some of my stored objects!
Got a clean black dash along with a Nismo wheel and brand new front end lighting that I've been storing for a while...

I don't know why but that cobalt green and the red tint kouki tails look so good.

Keep up the build definitely subscribing to see where this goes.

That's cause watching it is like Christmas all over again.

Is there a thread on how to tint kouki tails like that?

Yeah that's me lol. I live in Japan right now but I still have that car. I miss it a lot :/

Happy to see your car here finally. Both of your cars were super nice and a lot of people can learn from you. I dig the whole LS thing because we're from CA and I know how shitty it is for cars. Looking forward to seeing the car completed!

Looking good so far!

So clean, keep it up!

Yeah man pretty much only reason im doing the Erod kit cuz of the Ref.
Thanks!
Going to start on the interior next. Still debating wether to run the SF rear seat delete panels& door cards on it or not.

Looking killer. In the midst of LS3 swapping my s13 and was curious what length Sikky relocation shifter you decided to use as I also have the t56 magnum and the QuickTime bellhousing. They have told me via email that it's not needed and I know that's not correct

Havent had that much time to work on the car these past weeks but some progress was made!
It was time now to start fitting the engine in the car..

since the car no wheels , I found a good deal from local guy and picked up some LMGT4

With the removable core support made install of the LS a breeze!

decided to send the car out to my Buddys shop to get the exhaust done first. sent the car out as of today. I will try to get pics of how the exhaust system is made when I go over to help.

DAMN this got even better!

love the wheel and brake setup. looks killer. great taste in tools too. :)

oh dude this is SO good!!! TE37 Saga is the best spoke design out of all the TE imo.
Cannot go wrong with LMGT4 either.

Those massive brakes really fill up the wheels. I know the 6-piston requires at least an 18" wheel but it looks pretty unforgiving in the offset department as well. Any chance you could measure the clearance next time you have the wheels off? I would be eternally grateful.

Here is Wilwood's clearance measurements for example. Sorry for cluttering up the thread.

Exhaust is done on the car for now. 2.5'' pipe coming out of the manifold flange to clear frame and steering column. Space is tight but not impossible.

Ended the exhaust with the Reinhard Tip

Got the car back home. Going to start now on mocking things up to see where im going to want stuff to sit in the bay.

I also have the stock center part of the core support, don't know if state ref will make a big deal of the dimple core support so ill maybe swap it out when I take the car in. Snorlax looks empty with no AC condesor or front mount after many years of seeing with them on. haha
