so i went to our storage the other day and we have a bunch of stuff left over from the shop and everything that we could probably get rid of. i figured i’ll just make a dedicated page: http://www.powerzamcam.com/blog/marketplace/
…any author here can go to admin->pages, click on marketplace and add whatever you like. soooooo if say, george and vosko walk to get some chinese food one night and george happens to find a vacuum, he could throw it up here for any of us instead of leaving it at my house. also i’m sure toycoma has some non-devilish stuff we might be interested in… .
we have ish and debt and more ish that could be traded/sold/donated…so here’s some for the taking. most prices will be checked with google/ebay but if it seems crazy high let us know. anything without a price is up to you to decide it’s worth. maybe you’ll find something special. email whoevs is listed if you’re interested. we’re in jersey so pickup is preferred or buyer pays for shipping and paypal is required. everything is sold is as (especially the electronics). but if they’re broken let us know…we’re good, karma-powered peoples =) . .

Jak se staví (1JZ) sen
December 5th, 2008 by Spitfire
Název je sice lehce zavádějící, ale tohle auto podle mě vystihuje dokonale. I když ten sen momentálně nepokračuje úplně růžově; Powerzamcam, garáž z New Jersey, která má tohle auto nastarosti, musela kvůli finanční krizi v USA v září zavřít svou dílnu. Tak nebo tak ale auto pořád jezdí a reprezentuje se vší parádou.
Tahle Sil80 se začala stavět začátkem letošního léta a odraží se v ní řada věcí, který jsou poslední dobou na scéně Nissanů Silvií a drift kár obecně hodně populární. Jsou to jak detaily jako například klec lakovaná jinou barvou, ale hlavně zahození původního čtyřválce KA24 a jeho nahrazení šestiválcem 1JZ z Toyoty Supry JZA70. Lidi z Powerzamcam detailně a kvalitně zdokumentovali kompletní průběh stavby a na fotky se můžete podívat tady.
Kromě 1JZ-GTE najdete na autě taky Silkroad coilovery a 2way samosvor ATS. Výkon motoru je momentálně v sérii (260hp), ale to je pořád dvojnásobek původního KA24 a na sklouznutí to bohatě stačí. Časem se oboje sériový turba vyměněj za jedno větší…
So I figured it was time to make a post on the other powerzamcam drift car. So here’s George’s car.
So lets start at the beginning. Here it is after they picked it up at the original Powerzamcam shop (Sal’s garage)
Stock KA is out, but I have no idea what he was doing. Lol.
Sorry I don’t have any pics of them putting the SR in L
So after the SR was in, and it was lowered he decided to make a roll bar. Sorry for the bad pics, you can’t really see it.
Shortly after he decided he did not like it, so he cut it out and did an entire cage.
On another note this is what happened to George’s exhaust after visiting the “mountain” one night… I believe he’s been through like 4 or 5 different exhausts most from his car being so low that it would hit the ground constantly eventually putting a hole in it.
Anyways back on topic, a few quick pics of the completed cage in action, and to give you an idea of how low it was and why he went through so many exhausts. And yes we would drive 8+ hours each way to events in that car as is, scraping the exhaust everywhere.
Getting ready to go to an event.
More on driving to events. I believe we were coming back from VIR or summit point, I can’t remember, but it started snowing. So we had to drive back in this all the way from Virginia. By the time we got back into New Jersey it was bad. I remember George telling me about one point where he pulled over and then got back on behind a salt truck hoping to stay behind it to get some type of traction, but he couldn’t even keep up with the salt truck due to the lack of traction. Lol. I still don’t know how he made it home that day. I would have pulled over and waited for a few days, until the snow was gone. Lol.
Anyways, look at the determination…
Next was some fresh paint…
So, after George had the car painted he decided he wanted to make a hard top for his car and completely remove the soft top. His initial design was pretty bad. And yes I told him it was. Lol. So I stopped by the shop one weekend and we spent most of the day doing the top. Unfortunately we were so wrapped up into it that I forgot to pictures of the build. All I have are these few. I forget what we used to make the mold some type of Styrofoam. I think it was some kind of stuff used when building a house. Lol.
Here we began fiber glassing
After countless hours of fiber glassing and sanding the end result. Not bad for never having done fiber glassing before.
So here’s what was next…
Getting it all tuned
So stay tuned for next season to see what’s next, Cuz I sure as hell don’t know. Lol.
first event! fell in love with the car all over again, the motor feels nice, i didn’t have a tach so really couldn’t push it (haven’t even confirmed a rev limiter)…other than that, great time driving. but of course it wouldn’t be an event unless i lose a front bumper =D
next stop: summit point for drift nirvana on 09.28!
after countless sunrise welcoming nights and tons of help from everyone, betty has finally been put back on the street. she looks gangster, not ghetto (with stock 15s and no sideskirts on an aggressive kit) and sounds even better. this is one of those moments i could say i’m high on life (or maybe it’s driving around all day without exhaust gaskets). so now she’s back at the shop ready for an oil change, some side mirrors, and a high flow cat.
since i’ve been out of the game for some time now, what better way to come back than with a new cage, some gold, and what some will call a superior motor! i’ll always love sr20s =)
3 months. it’s been 3 months since i last posted on here. something i told myself to do monthly turned into me not being in front of my computer for weeks at time. and when i am, it’s simply to check late fees or approve some whack ass photo kristian or david or ankur decide to send to our myspace. BUT, i am happy to say 2007 is exceeding our expectations. the powerzamcam name is building the image george and i set out to establish stronger and stronger each day. as i’m sure you’ve seen, chris orso is officially the face (and car) of 2007 for powerzamcam drifting. thanks to DUNLOP TIRES, SMAX PERFORMANCE, ENDURA-TECH, DRIVEN-ADDICTIONS.COM, XTC AUTOSTYLES, DRINKNOS.COM (much love to ernie manansala), chris was able to have his car ready (at 9am) for the d1 driver’s search. check out chris at myspace.com/chrisorso and become his friend =)
also at d1, driven by myself, was the STREET VERSION of BUDDY CLUB USA’S s13 which will be completed at powerzamcam this month and raced/shown along with it’s TWIN RACE VERSION at events all over the area. both cars are owned by mark manansala and will be representing another significant part of the powerzamcam drift team including co-owner, george zamouzakis in the powerzamcam vert and chris orso, powerzamcam driver. mark will be driving BUDDY CLUB USA’S race version, also fully built by powerzamcam. a HUGE thanks goes out to the two cars’ sponsors:
also premiered recently was the official BOSAL SUBARU STI, sponsored by HIDE YOUR RIDE, PERRIN PERFORMANCE, ENDURA-TECH, VOLK WHEELS, SUBARU PERFORMANCE TUNING, G-SPEC, and ZERO SPORTS. this is an important build for us because of the high quality companies that made this car possible in support of Bosal Performance, the STI will open the door to a whole new market for powerzamcam. look for it at major shows, including hot import nights 2007. thanks Bosal!
sooo, as you could see…powerzamcam is officially a name in the list of many that are forwarding drifting on the east coast. we are now noticing the people, companies, and teams of local and national notoriety that we’ve seen for years recognizing us for what we are. our family here is something that i know for a fact is unlike any other group i’ve ever seen. we grew up living and breathing the entire racing world. some of us were in shows, others strictly raced, some are new to imports, others experienced beyond comparison…but the passion and commitment we share along with our ability to try and do as much as possible for the benefit of the shop is where our heart is. that is what sets us apart from others, we are brothers all looking for one thing. to drive.
So a lot has happened in the last month. First off we got chris ready in time for his debut at Englishtown and he’s been killing it on the track like he never left.
Next we had a monumental event happen on 4/24/07 which from now on will always be celebrated as DUNLOP DAY!
Thats right Dunlop is now the official tire sponsor of Powerzamcam. Thanks to the amazing help of our sponsored driver, Mark Manasala and his brother Ernie, we have finally obtained every drifters dream to have corporate sponsorship to help bring our driving skill, and experience to the next level. I want to take this time to deeply thank and show TREMENDOUS Gratitude to 2 people who have not only helped us accomplish what we could only fantasize about but who have also guided and mentored us into this business, but most of all have become 2 of our best friends and truly become like family to us all here at PZC. Mark, Ernie we love you guys and appreciate everything you’ve done for us and look forward to all the sick projects we will bring out this year and for years to come!
Another crazy development for us is the fact that for the 1st time ever on the east coast the D1 Grand Prix will hold its season opener here in Englishtown, NJ. The world’s best drifters will be competing and wowing the crowds at Raceway Park with some of the most intense drifting battles ever witnessed and both Sal and Chris will be driving in a 2 against the world battle on May 4th to try and obtain D1 Licenses in order to be at the Big event on May 5th.
Sal will be supported by of course Dunlop tires, Buddyclub, A.H.M Performance, S-Max Intercoolers, Drifz Wheels, and Nos energy drink in the Drift Diaries/Buddyclub drift twins s13 (street version) built by Powerzamcam. Sal just recently acquired the opportunity to drive this great vehicle and is very excited to not only be the man who helps build the car but also campaign it in 2007.
Chris will be supported by Dunlop tires, Endura-Tech, S-max intercoolers, XTC Autostyles, Nos energy drink, and of course Powerzamcam as it’s driver.
Sal’s car is currently being worked on here in Powerzamcam and with only 24 hours before the 1st practice session takes place we have our work cut out for us.
Chris’s car just came out of the world’s fastest paint job and custom hardtop fab due to D1 regulations that requires one. Thanks to all the hard work by Shri, owner of XTC AutoStyles, Chris is mean and green for D1. We’re currently installing his Endura-tech coilovers again with the new spring rates of 9 and 7 and his Endura-Tech Brake pads courtesy of Justin Hynes of Endura-Tech.
Make sure to come out on May 5th show us some love at both the Dunlop pit area and the Powerzamcam vendor booth. Also check out our new and updated galleries on the main website for even more pics of these amazing builds.
24 hours from now is our D-day, our pain and our joy. 2 against the world…………….
the winter is starting so that could only mean one thing: long term projects! besides rebuilding the s13 hatch, putting a full roll cage in the vert, and rb’ing an s14, we’ll also be working on other people’s cars =). unfortunately, we don’t have a picture so you’ll just have to feel a void…
