Dailey A is an auto-tech school student and came to Z Car Garage because he wanted his SR20 powered (S13)240sx to be a reliable daily driver. The car needed sorting and had its share of issues. We took care of intercooler leaks and sloppy work performed by the PO like a damaged gas tank. Upgrades included a Z32 MAF, JWT ECU, GReddy FMIC, and an Aeromotive 340 fuel pump:


Dailey’s 240sx now makes a dependable 222hp/218tq to the wheels:

Francisco M met Rob at the Contra Costa Cruise last month where they discussed adding some bolt-on performance parts to his G35 coupe. The following day Francisco made an appointment and soon his G was treated to a host of go-fast goodies. From left to right: Motordyne plenum spacer, CF intake manifold, Motordyne XYZ pipe, Motordyne straight pipe, Amuse R1-T 3″ Titanium exhaust system and ART test pipes…

Let’s take a closer look at that pretty Titanium Amuse muffler+Motordyne exhaust combo:

Stay tuned as Francisco comes back to ZCG next week for an UPREV tune to take advantage of all these cool bolt-ons!
