Zenki VS Kouki ? - Page 5 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

turbozxi · 04-03-2005, 11:23 PM

Modded Kouki owns modded Zenki in my opinion. But I still like my zenki.

mr_240sx · 04-03-2005, 11:56 PM

for soem reason, the kouki headlights dont seem to follow the lines of the car when it has aero installed.

i dunno why this you guys are still talking about this. i pretty much summed it all up on the first page

KwKouki · 04-04-2005, 03:05 PM

I go through phases. I fell in love with the kouki though, it was what got me liking the 240sx

dorifto-san4o8 · 08-29-2005, 12:49 AM

i love the zenki look when done right. but i sold my zenki to buy a kouki. I NEED JDM AERO!!!

TurboZenki · 08-29-2005, 08:44 AM

Nissan sold a bunch of Zenki's in the US, then they started making Koukis and next thing you know nobody bought the car anymore... which also made Nissan stop selling 240's in the US. Which denied us the S15. Seems like purists are more about the zenki...

justinhustle · 08-29-2005, 08:48 AM

why do we bump the damn threads that are so damn old

=/

420sx · 08-29-2005, 09:10 AM

zenki looks fuckin hot with a right kit. just need to get the glass lights

MakotoS13 · 08-29-2005, 09:28 AM

if the S13 wasn't such an unrefined pile i'd say it owns all.

zenki looks good from all around. the headlights match the rest of the curves of the car.

exactly my friend

Straight on kouki looks pretty savage (but not by a huge margin at all over zenki) but the rest of the car doesn't have the body lines to pull it all together. I'd take my zenki anytime. Just me though..

hunterljc · 08-29-2005, 01:08 PM

Stock kouki > stock zenki

both can look bad with some tasteful mods but I'd never trade my kouki for a zenki.

agreed, stock for stock the kouki wins, zenki reminds me of a camry without the right mods, but with some clean aero and german headlights it looks hot

damn this topic has been beaten to death. why raise it. WHY

REDSH!FT · 06-21-2006, 07:19 PM

Because some people don't understand why Zenki's are better...

Rofl, this thread was revived twice.

Omarius Maximus · 06-23-2006, 01:12 AM

Kouki owns, as long as the kouki gets the last word in this thread

samms95s14se · 06-23-2006, 11:44 AM

Wow! this is back. This thread was only meant to get people's opinion on what they liked about the differences in the two, not to determine which one is better! Also I wouldn't say Kouki owns anything.... more like borrowed over half the body of the Zenki instead of getting it's own full redesign. For example... notice there is only one style of R32,R33 and R34? So if you want to get technical about it Zenki does own Kouki!! since it was the original S14.

Omarius Maximus · 06-23-2006, 01:04 PM

Regardless, the kouki is in greater demand. If you try to sell both a zenki and a kouki, both in good condition, which will command a higher price? The kouki, because its in greater demand. Its in demand because its rare, hasn't been abused, and it also doesn't look like a toyota previa.

240trainee · 06-23-2006, 01:10 PM

and it's newer? and generally they are in better condition and lower miles, for whatever reason besides age.

Dunkee · 06-23-2006, 01:41 PM

Bah most Koukis now were originally Zenki's w/ a facelift. I like to think mine looks like an R33 from the front

Previas

Hopefully this will get locked soon and Zenki will end it for the win..
