Hakosuka fans unite! Yet another vintage Skyline has graced the shop floors at ZCarGarage, and this one’s a beauty. Peter brought his 1971 2000GTX to ZCG for some ignition and carb tuning work. He acquired the Skyline through the well-known
JDMLegends shop and earlier this year it was even featured on
Speedhunters.
Yes, those are real, authentic Hayashi Street Type CR wheels! The car sports the L20A engine with triple 40mm Solex carbs and the same header found on Gary’s C10. We started with a baseline dyno of 91hp/98tq at the wheels:
Once the Skyline is dialed in Peter can continue enjoying the ride…then it’s time for a 3.2 🙂

Brad G. brought his silver Nismo 370z to ZCarGarage for high-flow cats and UPREV tuning. Below are the Berk Hi-Flow cats replacing the factory units.
The stock Nismo Z34 is rated at 350hp/276tq(flywheel) and on the ZCG dyno it produced 297hp/246tq at the wheels. The plot on the left compares this baseline run with the Berk HFCs installed and shows solid gains of 9hp/9tq. Rob UPREV tuned the Z and extracted even more power for a final output of 312hp/260tq at the wheels:
Stay tuned for more 370z action later this week!
