Roshen Udugama: 1990 Nissan 300ZX

Roshen Udugama had originally picked up his 1990 Nissan 300ZX as a naturally aspirated model, but when the engine developed problems, he knew what he was going to do. He dove head first into a full VG30DETT engine build to revive the car over the course of 14 months. From there, he addressed aesthetics and added more performance modifications as time went by.
