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
