Hey man thats the cleanest zenki ever!!! what the hell is it doin in mississippi?? naa Im from gulfport,I havnt seen that car around yet.. I drive a mexican style s13 red,white,and green for now haha with a SR and fno1rc's...

[s14_240sx]

Nice zenki, not really feeling the painted trim. The previous owner of my zenki did that, took like a day to clean em up and make it minty fresh.

[got chub]

it nice to see my twin! i didn't think you had the navan fogs? I'm going KA-T with my s14 just casue it is cheaper for me to do that. I'm picking up a complete motor next Sunday and found a full bottom end build for 700 and that is with wiseco pistons, eagle rods and arp hardware. if i had the cash to do a full build on a SR after i got it then i would go that route.

i think the only differences i can see is the wheel color and specs but same wheels

[brizanden]

zenkis like this is why i almost got one. then i decided koukis look a hella lot better in stock form which i knew mine would be in for awhile lol, anyways nice s14 man

lol, my car is registered in MS, I'm in the military so I'm in California. I did that so I wouldn't have to deal with smog and all the BS Cali laws for cars.

Sexy! What is that ebrake handle?

The shift knob and ebake handle are a matching set made by Tenzo, they have interchangable weights on the inside of the shiftknob as well.

[johnnycham]

sweet car. what side skirts are those?

[brandonDavid]

one of the cleanest zenki's i've ever seen. props man.

[rb30dett]

Dang those are nice wheels!! Where did you get those?

[Scuffed_ChukiCoupe]

a flea market

[ksmirnov1212]

car looks very nice

[raven2345]

one of the few zenkis so far that i've really likedcongrats

edit: first post on second page. word. hah

[ddgsxr504]

a flea market

ehh, the wheels are played and aren't my first choice but at $350 for all 4 with tires I wasn't going to pass'em up.

[Black on Gold]

Side skirts are also Navan

[rb30dett]

Actually he bought those wheels at my flea market!! I parted out my s14 after I had an accident. Im still trying to get rid of some stuff!

[JDM 4 Life]

your 240 = WET WET NICE AND SIMPLE HOPE YOU KEEP THAT WAYMAY I ASK WHY NOT THE CA18??I WENT CA INSTEAD OF SR

[TerminalVelocity]

your 240 = WET WET NICE AND SIMPLE HOPE YOU KEEP THAT WAY

I agree.

MAY I ASK WHY NOT THE CA18??

Because he has an s14... that'd just be weird.

[Black on Gold]

Seeing that the S14's are heavier then the S13's, having a CA wouldnt do much justice. Its just not worth it IMO. I cant wait to see how the new motor will look inside that sexy beast

[krisdeezy]

holy....that is very clean ! that's so major offset man !

p.s i see your front license plate...cops are a *****...might wanna consider they'll pull you over for not having a front plate...

[Notes]

What're you going to do about smogging it once you drop in the SR?

[JDM 4 Life]

I never really thought about it that way goodi was asking because i have friend who went ca in his S14 and it pulls nasty hard!!!

[kornaz]

What're you going to do about smogging it once you drop in the SR?

His plates are out of state. No smog and sh1t.

[Black on Gold]

Notes apparently doesnt Read lol

LOL at the irony

[Ghostdrifter88]

i really like the white. nice and shiny

[slipstream_pnoy]

God i love your Zenki, I wanted to do the exact thing for my pearl white zenki, but like you, my motor went out on me. Good luck with the swap bro.

[ddgsxr504]

In regards to the front plate and passing smog once I drop in the SR.....

my car is registered out of state since I'm in the military, I'm from Mississippi which only requires one plate, and no smog so I'm STR8!

[Kristine]

GAHHHHH.

your car is so sexy.

[spooled240]

ehh, the wheels are played and aren't my first choice but at $350 for all 4 with tires I wasn't going to pass'em up.

where in the hell did you find those baller fn's WITH tires for 350????!!!! Nice find and I'm LOVIN the zenki aero, it just makes zenki's 10x nicer IMO.

How much do you think the ka-t route will be? I'm not an sr hater, I wouldn't have mind swapping one, but smog issues would have forced me to do an engine swap every 2 years as opposed to taking all the boosting parts/mods of the ka. Witht he ka-t, I could just about take all my mod's off and have it n/a with the stock exhaust ready to pass smog within a few days(Under the table is like 300-350 ) If you can build the ka-t for about 3500 I think it will be worth it because you'll have a ka-t with more power, more torque, you could have a bigger turbo right off the bat, and it will run like a brand new engine being rebuilt and all. Just my .02, both routes are good tho GL!

[ddgsxr504]

As for cost prices between KA-T and SR it all depends on who you talk to.

Now, while going KA-T allows you to pick and choose your parts, more torque and power due to bigger displacement, and easier smog passability there are many other things that come into play.

For one, you will most likely need to rebuild your stock KA engine. Now for it to handle moderately boosted situations of 10psi or more (reliably) you will have to fork over $$$ for forged/performance internals.

Next comes the turbo kit itself, most people say you can piece together a relatively cheap kit, but at the same time you know they will flame for not getting quality parts. A turbo, intercooler, engine management, FPR, downpipe, elbow and the other misc parts will run you at least $1500-$2000 if not more.

Then comes the reinforcement of the other parts... fuel pump, battery relocation (optional) and the other loose odds and ends will pretty much run you up to your quoted price of $3500. Now like you said that is a pretty good price but it's quite the work and something that I don't want to nor need to go that route mostly because I'm looking for moderate power (300 WHP) and just a "quick" clean daily.

Most SR swaps run between $2000-$3000 (ballpark), generally don't need an engine rebuild, all engine management and drivability issues come with the swap and with simple bolt-on's and a mild tune can put you around 230-250HP. Not quite at my goal but nothing a little more tuning, some bumpsticks, and an S15 turbo couldn't cure. Not to mention that SR parts are wayyyy more available and abundant than KA-T

Basically I'm looking for something that is pretty much a "complete" swap with little hassle on my part, not that I am not capable of nor wouldn't mind tackling but at this point in my life I don't have time or money to have my daily down and re-build my KA.

Now in conclusion I think KA-T's are bad @ss and in no way I am I playing the SR is better than the KA-T card but for me and my needs SR is the easier way to go.

I do plan on keeping the KA to maybe one day tool around with and rebuild, boost and throw in a shell but for now..... SR get's my vote.

[Nvkreationz]

a flea market

which flea market?

[rb30dett]

which flea market?

I sold him those wheels for cheap cause I knew he needed some; also cause he's a friend of mine. I'm also still selling parts from my s14.
