Datsun Roadster Hardtop Project Finished!

Filed under: Featured Cars and Projects
by Alvin G @ 6:17 pm on February 12, 2012

I have always wanted a body-color hardtop for the roadster and I found one through a fellow Datsun owner about three years ago. The hardtop needed some love as the weatherstripping was deteriorated and the underside cracked. I was determined to tackle the project myself and after struggling with re-installing the windows and trying to paint/prep myself I gave it to Rob at ZCarGarage.

William at William’s Auto Body reinforced the fiberglass and applied slick black paint to match the body. The interior got a new 2-tone headliner and weatherstripping. Thanks ZCG!






370z Bolt-On Power

Chris P. came to ZCarGarage to see how his bolt-on mods netted any performance gains. He installed Stillen Gen 3 intakes and Berk Hi-flow cats himself and Rob UPREV tuned the Z34 for an improvement of +11hp/9tq at the wheels:

Later this week we will have updates on several Z34 and G37 projects from simple bolt-ons to full forced-induction setups…stay tuned!







This Z32TT has been with ZCarGarage for several years and in its current form showcases what the right formula of parts and tuning can achieve. Rob and Seb recently dyno’d the Z with impressive results: 644hp/571tq at the wheels on 100 octane!

Rob was kind enough to take me for a spin today and I was blown away by the raw power of this car. Acceleration was violent, and when the tires had enough heat in them to hook up…I was getting dizzy with each roll-on. Here’s a short video clip, more to come!

LONG LIVE THE Z32 TWIN TURBO!

Special thanks to Seb of SpecialtyZ for tuning this beast!
