Fong hails from Stockton and tried a few shops in the Bay Area before finally coming to ZCG. His 1993 300zx Twin Turbo is the one of prettiest Sapphire Blue Z32s I’ve seen with a great stance, J-Spec front/rear and sharp Enkei RPF-1s.

Fong came to us for some general maintenance including:
-Suspension bushings and Powertrix control arms
-Fixing the HICAS
-new oil lines, PCV system
-alignment


With a relatively short list of items needing attention we freshened this Z so
Fong can continue Enjoying the Ride! What can ZCG do for your Z?

Steve S. has a serious addiction: he can never have enough horsepower! He came back to ZCG with his gorgeous Vortech supercharged
G35 to push the envelope and make even more power. Rob tuned the ivory G on 100 octane and produced some impressive results: 548hp/431tq to the wheels! This is on the stock block and we don’t recommend doing this but Steve’s appetite for power is insatiable…

When Linda N. saw the power gains and heard the sweet exhaust note on her son Anthony’s Altima SE-R…she had to have an exhaust system on her own ride! Linda’s Armada has 185k miles and she drives it hard. To help her enjoy the ride we installed a Magnaflow exhaust followed by Rob’s UPREV tuning.


With the exhaust in place we put the stately SUV on the ZCG dyno. With the exhaust and tuning this Armada now makes +15hp and +18tq at the wheels. Power delivery is increased throughout the entire rev range:



This is one driven Nissan family and we love sharing the gift of more power with them.

Anthony’s parents
Mark and Linda N are both serious Nissan/Datsun enthusiasts and what better present to give their son than a new exhaust system! Anthony’s daily driver is an Altima SE-R, here is the Magnaflow exhaust vs the stock system:


We put the mighty VQ-powered FWD sedan on the dyno and saw some nice gains. Keep in mind this is a CVT-equipped car:

The dyno revealed peak hp gain from 205 to 222rwhp while peak tq stayed relatively the same. Take a closer look though you will notice that more torque is available at both low and high rpm ranges:
A birthday present that gives more power and a throatier exhaust note…we know Anthony will enjoy the ride! Stay tuned as we have more to come from this Nissan-crazy family 🙂
