  1. NISSAN cant sell this COLOR at all on their 400 Zs. Its ugly!!! Its NO ONES CHOICE!!! Ask Nissan dealers they dont even accept delivery for inventory! 😂

  2. The S30 value has PLUMMETTED! 2 YEARS AGO $50K is average 240z that is clean or all original. That is now worth $20 -$25. I have 40!years in these cars. MILLIONAIRES restore these cars no one else should bother!

  3. They show up at a track, tell us "its great to finally stretch its legs…use 6th gear", then close the video with the cars slowly going round the track. Just sad. Thumbs DOWN.

  4. Hey You guys, love the setup, we are working on a similar project here in Belgium, but we can't get our setup right, we also use the EFI Fast but can't figure out all the settings, (PS – we only have 98 octane here…) what are the numbers you are using?

  5. I see in the beginning of the video the engine is installed straight up. The engine sits to the passenger side 14°. Then later I see the engine is sitting correctly. What's going on?

  6. I love everything else about the build, but I just can't get past those headlights. They look absolutely hideous. I don't know why they thought they were a good idea.

  7. I really enjoy seeing a nice clean garage like that and the work on The Z is really nice to see a JDM products for a change right guys good job. Also I noticed when he got out the 280z and shut the door that it sounded bro. No Z31 WTH

  8. The wheels and tires are clown shoes. The fender flares are unnecessary if you used proper tires, too. The rest of the build is pretty cool. Commie grey isn't my color, but I have to admit it works here. You guys get a C+.

  9. you didn't mention anything about the fuel rail….it's from ProTunerz and you are using what kind of injectors with the stock intake manifold? they don't come in the kit – or i was looking for the wrong kit 🤷🏻‍♂

  10. So are we ever going to get to hear the car run? I hope there's another episode. We need a total review of the new suspension and the car as a whole.

  11. FAST EFI technically makes this car not road legal. Even in Texas, if the tech notices it's a FAST system during a safety inspection, it could fail and lose it's road legal status. Yes, the safety inspections can look at the general presence of emission compliance. The only way around that would be to declare it an antique car, side step safety inspections and not commute to work in it. This is a big deal — you should probably warn users. You might get pulled over by TX cops who believe there is no exemption from inspections, and have to fight to drive around without the sticker.
