IS350 Stanced

admin — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 16:36:20 +0000

Recently picked up an IS350 for a daily cruiser but being the type of people we are I couldn’t leave it alone. So I picked up a few parts to make it a little more fitting for me.

Advan RG-D 19×9 +35mm Front 19×10.5 +15mm Rear

Blitz Coilovers

Greddy SP elite Exhaust

Cusco Rear Camber Arms

Project Kics Lugs

Carbon Fabulous Lip

STOCK

Here is a pic of the rear camber arms and coilovers

Pic of the rear with the exhaust installed, the rear needed about -4 degrees camber and some fender rolling. Don’t worry i got some cheap 265′s for the rear.

Now its a little less boring.

And then some window tinting.

So the first thing to go on the Z are the side trim pieces

Unfortunately they are riveted on along the side of the car

a little sanding

a little welding and sanding

and all gone…

Project : Datsun 280z

admin — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 03:50:49 +0000

Picked up a 78 280z a few months ago and am hoping to restore it in time for the up coming Autorama show in March, don’t know if that will happen or not but I hope it does. Since I got the car I’ve added some JDM fairlady mirrors on the fenders. Some Rota Grid-v’s to hold me over till I figure out what rim size I will need to fill up the ZG flares. Stay tuned and I will update the progress of the car.

Injector Dynamics ID-1000′s

admin — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 04:29:57 +0000

We got some Injector Dynamics 1000cc injectors instock for EVO 8, 9, X and Top Feed Subaru. They range from $450-460 for a set and jumper harnesses are $20-48 extra, if you don’t wanna cut and crimp on another clip. We have installed a number of injectors from other companies and have found that Injector Dynamics are the best idling and consistent injector we’ve come across. They are just not flow matched like most injectors out there but they are dynamically matched as well (pulse width matched). So the latencies will match in each cylinder so you won’t get different amount of fuel each cylinder.

We recently finished up with Mahmood’s Evo X with a GTX-3076r, Cosworth cams & springs, ARP head studs, AMS O2 housing downpipe, AFI exhaust manifold, Injector Dynamics 1000cc, Cobb Fuel Pump. The car was sent to The Boost Creep in Colorado and was pro tuned with the Cobb AccessPort. Put down some pretty nice numbers to rip around the streets on. The above dyno graph is with 104 octane at 29 psi of boost.

This dyno graph is on 91 octane and 25 psi of boost.

Here is a video Mahmood made of his dyno pull

admin — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 15:12:19 +0000

Recently acquired a AFI EVO X manifold ($999) to mate with a GTX3076r. Fitment of the manifold was great no issues with the install. Along with this Evo’s insides are some AMS O2 housing downpipe, Cosy Cams, ARP headstuds, Deatchwerks 1000cc injectors, Cobb Fuel Pump. This should be a fun setup, can’t wait to see what it does on the dyno.
