+600 hp Nissan 300ZX (Z32) as widebody restomod!

Not quite as common on the tuning scene as the Supra (A80 MkIV), the Z32 Nissan 300ZX is also a very interesting car. The Japanese originally entered the US market as an affordable supercar alternative and more than 30 years after its debut, the Z32 still has a loyal following around the world. However, fans of the MkIV Supra are quite simply blessed with the better engine. Because the 2JZ-GTE six-cylinder is an icon of Japanese engineering. So why not combine the advantages of both vehicles? That's exactly what it has Jesse Laaksonen from Finland and set up a kind of 'Zupra'. And that's exactly what happened in the Speed ​​Hunters Magazine now featured. And of course we can't withhold this unique piece from you. The vehicle is a 300ZX from 1995 as USDM-Model. And it no longer has the VG30DETT engine under the hood, but a tuned 2JZ-GTE.

The engine enjoys various internal improvements (crankshaft, forged Pistons & Connecting Rods etc.) and the factory twin turbos were replaced with a Holset hybrid single turbo. Also installed is the Supra transmission, which uses a three-plate OS Giken clutch from a Formula D car (Nissan Silvia S15) brings. And it is obvious that the appearance of the 300ZX has changed significantly compared to the series. That plays a big part in that Rocket Bunny S13 body kit with the distinctive ones fender flares all around, reshaped for the Z. Underneath, there are powerful 18-inch Weds Kranze LXZ rims with a heavy drop center. But it goes on. The front is adorned with a GReddy bumper, on the side there were specially made Bomex side skirts made of carbon and in the end a new paint job was necessary. The choice fell on a beautiful Midnight Purple (purple) with large metallic pigments.

The huge carbon rear wing is not painted, but there was purple paint for the Aerowolf mirror caps. By the way, the martial look is rounded off with a coilover in combination with a stance part Air cup lift system. This makes it possible to raise the vehicle by 50 mm at the touch of a button if necessary. And the modifications continue inside the cabin with carbon fiber Bride Gias II seats and Willans x Nightrunner 4-point harnesses. Also there was one Steering wheel by Equal Hellboi and behind it sits an AiM MXG LCD display. By the way, the 2JZ currently delivers around 600 hp on the bike, but soon it will be up to 1.000 horses.
