Zebrakenko Storm bottom bracket

Is there anyone out there that might know what kind of bottom bracket I'll need for a Zebrakenko Storm? I recently bought the frame, but it doesn't have a bottom bracket. The width of the bracket is 70mm, which leads me to believe that I need an Italian bracket. Can anyone shed some light on this subject?

You should be able to figure out if the threading is english or italian by either looking at the threads, or running your fingernail aound the thread to see which way will tighten the bb cup.

It is a known fact that a lot of Japanese frame builders copied everything they did from old Italian bikes... down to bottom bracket size and threading.
