| | | A four-leaf clover; Indian head penny; hot blonde majoring in Applied Physics—all things that you don’t come across often and extra special when you see one. Now we can add “Alyssa” to that list. This black beauty started her life in Japan as a 35th anniversary Nissan Z-car and never looked back. Canadian resident Alex Yao took Alyssa on a journey to the US that has transformed her into the 420Z that she is today. |
No, that’s not a typo directed at our hemp/car enthusiast readers- the Zed is powered by a 4.2L (actually it’s 4.24L, but who’s counting) custom built VQ. When you give Alyssa a cocktail of 100 octane race gas and methanol injection, she won’t hesitate to put out an amazing 760 rwhp/713 ft-lb torque at a mere 18psi of boost. Oh yea, I forgot to mention Alyssa is carrying twins; both named Garrett. Move aside 1977 Topps #207 C-3P0 Error trading card: you just got served on the Rarity dance floor! Alyssa’s tech sheet seems to come straight from of a Grand Am race team: Darton sleeves, custom 90mm crankshaft, port & polished heads, custom valve train, Cosworth bearings, and the list goes on and on. The plethora of engine components easily places this build as one of the craziest non-corporate builds we’ve ever seen here at JTuned.
