Supercharging For 2013: Eugene’s Z33 Roadster

Last year Eugene V wanted to start modifying his 350z roadster thereby proclaiming “2013 as the year of his Z”.  Topping the list of upgrades included supercharging the Z. With most forced-induction builds we see customers coming back to upgrade their brakes but Eugene decided to tackle this first in preparation for big power…very wise!

Stoptech big brakes at all 4 corners were installed: ST-40s up front and ST-22s in back.

Stay tuned for more updates as we fulfill Eugene’s New Year’s Resolution of big power and great handling!





Never Enough: Steve’s Vortech G35

Steve S continues his mission to extract as much power as possible from his Vortech supercharged G35. Our last update netted 548hp/431tq at the wheels but Steve really wanted to push the stock block even further. He sourced an upgraded drive belt to allow a pulley change. He also designed his own cold-air intake with a 4″ inlet plus a massive air filter to improve breathing. Again, this is on 100 octane and ZCG does not advise pushing a stock block this far. Do not try this at home. With the new intake and pulley the G made 572hp/456tq at the wheels!

New Shoes for Ben’s RX-7

Ben’s LS1-powered FD RX-7 has always been one of my favorite cars to come out of Z Car Garage. Ben brought the 7 back for some serious power upgrades to the already potent V8 engine swap, more details coming soon. In the meantime check out his latest upgrade:  ADVAN RS wheels!  The old BBS wheels have been on the car for what seems like an eternity and we love the new look and stance. The concave spokes complement the beautiful, sexy curves of the FD’s body:

 

Below is a comparison between the new Advans and old BBS’s. On the right is a small teaser of the beastly LS1 underhood, stay tuned for a ful update:

 

Great wheel choice Ben!
