Ls1 t56 S14 Kouki build
In October 2001 I crashed my first car, a 93 coupe Se
got a 96 zenki to replace it
The white zenki lasted me a little over a year. May of 2003 I drove to NYC to purchase the car which this build thread is based upon, my 98 kouki.
Started doing some light mods, lowering springs/shocks, Hid's, CF hood, Gt spec exhaust
then megan coilovers, z32 brakes, subframe spacers, switched to rsr gt2 exhaust because ground clearance sucked on apexi gt spec, etc.
Also did z32 wheels, z33 wheels, and g35 wheels
scooped an s14 sr
driveshaft shop 1 piece driveshaft, diff bushings, nismo trans mount, etc
powered by max flex cobra downpipe
drop in day
making progress
decided to do s15 front, now i debate whether or not i made the right choice. *Mind made up, going back to kouki
ARC oil pan
digital climate control
took it to re spec garage to figure out a fuel issue
took it to ma motorsports in baltimore to diagnose some strange noises
turns out the weird noises were that some jackass put my throw out bearing in backwards and it actually melted to my pressure plate, my flywheel wasnt torqued so it was loose and beating up against back of block, and timing chain guide was broken.
sent my z32 uprights to stephen knoop (fortune auto ls1 s14, va beach) to have the lower shock mounts reclocked to get rid of the wretched binding that occurs when using these on s14, also had def's speherical bearings put in.
Work Rezax wheels
Trust DD exhaust
Instant gentleman s15 kit
