KoruWorks S14 Project
Posted: Thu Aug 15, 2013 2:27 am
This is the FOERST official KoruWorks Project car. 1995 Zenki S14 SE.
Of course me being me, the very FOERST mod was some Rays/Volks SF Disk mesh wheels. 16x9+10 fronts and 16x10-4 rears wrapped with 205/55s
Started out bone stock. Automatic. Being an auto means less chance of anyone having messed with it with exception of Nissan or other service shop. Underside was clean as heck. Interior was a different story. So FOERST couple things I did was replacing nasty, broken, or non-functional interior bits. Upgraded the stereo and got rid of the nasty factory wheel for a nice quick release and deep dish wheel.
Stage One. Basic suspension and brake upgrades. FortuneAuto 510 coils, Nismo powerbrace, PBM tension rods, PBM traction rods, PBM toe rods, PBM RUCAs, and ISIS subframe collars for suspension. Z32 brakes, EBC red pads, PowerSlot slotted rotors (still waiting on the fronts), R33 ebrake cables, and Z32 BMC for brake upgrades. Also threw on some ARP wheel studs for good measure.
And after its FOERST trip to GTE for an alignment (well after a bit of work to the rear fenders to fit the 16x10s)
Stage Two. Motor swap. Motor of choice-1JZGTE VVTi and R154. Found out the hard way that some of the 1JZ VVTi motors are full DBW (pulled from a JZX110). Ordered the correct JZX100 1JZ VVTi and started the teardown to make sure its proper throughout and throw on some new gaskets after giving it a good cleaning.
Still working out the full game plan for the motor. More than likely going top mount, bigger turbo, bigger injectors, standalone ecu, cams, and rebuilding the R154 with Marlin Crawler bits. Already picked up an Exedy Hyper Single, ARP flywheel bolts, and ARP head studs.
