a company called ZISIZIT????

 

I was cleaning out my shed that I have not been in for years and found a brochure for them with a post mark from 1991. The were located in Las Vegas and did engine swaps and body kits and a turnkey car called the ZRE based on the early z cars.

 

I remember stopping by the shop when I lived in Vegas and was amazed to see the they were swapping 4 cylinder engines into z cars. The brochure says it was an L20b and developed 249hp. They also did vg30 v6's with twin turbos that made 450hp. And of course they did v8's.

 

The body kit looked pretty nice. They did the Pantera style hatch back and the front looked kind of Pantera-ish. It also had Ferrari 308 style air scoops along the upper part of the door going into the rear quarter panel.

 

The brochure also mentions a company for suspension parts that I am not familiar with- it's called g-Machines. The car used McPherson struts and coil overs.

 

Brakes used JFZ calipers.

 

They mention a custom european style dash and remodeled consol and door panels.

 

The brochure also claims that the L-28 engine has been know to produce over 800hp!?!?!?!?!

 

I don't know if they are still in business but I doubt it. Anyway, thought I would share that blast from the past.

Yep, that is the one I was talking about. Dave at Arizona Z Car had purchased the molds when they went out of business. Dave told me he had never used the molds. Dave has since sold his fiberglass molds (I assume this was included) to a company in Ohio. The last I heard was that the new owner would be sorting through all of the molds he bought to determine what he had this summer. Hopefully he will make it through all of them and will offer parts to the public in the future.

Zisizit closed up shop in the mid 90's, Mark morgan was the owner of said shop. He did all the work on my first 510 back in the day. As a tribute to the dayz of wayback I Took marks license plate he had on his 300z twin turbo. It's now on my NX 2000.
