Larry Chen’s SR20 Swapped Datsun 240z is ALIVE! Ole Orange Bang: the 1 hour special
Рет қаралды 535,017
3 жыл бұрынMr. Larry Chen himself isn’t immune to the pitfalls of project cars - a 2 month project can turn into a 2 year project, real quick. Trust us, we know. But now is the time for him to get back into his pride and joy: Ole Orange Bang. SR20 powered and running the best it ever has, Larry’s mind was so blown that he filmed a whole 1 hour special - just to show off all the detail on this thing.

I have been a customer of z car garage for almost 10 years. Rob is the greatest guy to work with, I felt like he knew me and what I wanted from my cars everytime. He has been not telling the customer Dyno numbers for years and the first thing he does when you come to pick up your car is, washes it, warms it up and has it waiting for you in front ready to go. You walk in he hands you the keys and tells you to drive the car and I came back with a smile on my face every single time. The best shop I have ever worked with by a long shot. Don't forget Rob is just a mastermind a lot of the miracles come from the guys he works with who are top notch. Thank you Rob Fuller.

You can hear it! He tuned it, matched the turbo, matched the cooling and everything so that the response is so close to mimicking the naturally-aspirated engine. The torque comes on smooth, the power comes on smooth - it doesn't seem like it's spooling to boost, it sounds like it is boosting along the curve. Pay the man, Larry!

The smile 9n Larry's face says more than any reaction that was voiced during the vid. If not for folks like Larry Chen we the car peeps would be left in a void of nothing to feed or need for our passion. If I ever happen to be around some one looking for this level of work than I'll send them yalls way. Great thing is I could see all those little things adding up to a big change which means a big deal of extra power. I am so jelly @-@ .

I’m a Fiesta ST guy on a stage two Cobb tune, short shift kit, 3” exhaust and sticky Mitchlen tires. It’s a 2014 and has 98,000 miles on it, I’m on my 6th set of tires, I’m 73 years young and love driving on three wheels. Never sale that Z, you’ll regret it if you do. The Fiesta Flash. 🤙🏼🍺🍺🍺
