Wow! What an incredible difference! It really does look much better!
Just change the mirrors. You can get both new for $120! The install is simple.
He probably spent under $20 but could have saved major labor.
Where’d you get the bull nose from? Got an exact link?
Nice a bro
Nice job love my z
Nice car man!
I bought mine for 20k. Its top
How good is the clear coat? Does it hold or chip over time?
Did you ever make a video on reworking the headlights to only come on with the headlight switch?
While this is an old post, I'll comment on your faded back hatch hinge. If you hit that with Cerakote, it'll spruce up pretty nice (source: did myself, although mine was less faded).
Any worries that drain plug hanging down lower than OEM and get broken off by a rock or something?
That's my concern. I'll stick to the oem It's not a problem to remove just replace the crush washer
How long did it last in good condition?
Beautiful car in a beautiful color. I'm too scared to mess with anything on my 90 twin turbo, but if i did and it came out like this i'd consider a big win.
Dan, how did you get your front bumper to look like that? I saw somewhere else call it kevlar but no info.
Had to give it a like 👍 just cause 2:34
I love your content. I've binge-watched everything. I'm currently looking for my first 300zx!
Clean ride!! Did you do the turn signal modification to fit the ash spec side mount intercoolers? Mine pokes out a bit and I'm wondering if there's a different way.
Came out really nice! I know this is from two years ago and I'm a new used FJ Owner. How has it held up? I know there are a few companies that make "Plastidip". Does it matter which brand I use?
How does the plasti dip hold up to car washes?
How are they holding up ?
Thank you for showing how to do this, it saved me from buying that expensive ass trim kit.
the dog is very happy
I don’t even wanna know how much this build cost🤣
My boy is shirtless
What kind of pad did you use with the compound? Cutting pad? Polish pad
Did you consider taking the mirrors off to paint or was leaving them on easy to manipulate them during the process? I'm asking because I'm about to to the same project but thought I'd remove to paint them.
What kind of paint did you use on the mirrors & interior?
Which hose goes to the upper turbo inlet?
Man you can just hear the disappointment in your voice...time to send it back
Okay, I'm in 1:56. He has selected the wrong oil grade for one of the best Toyota's ever manufactured but isn't going the extra mile and buying the fluids and oil filter from a Toyota parts counter. Expensive, yes, worth it, yes. I believe you'll find that it's generally recommended to check the automatic transmission fluid level but don't change or flush the fluid, just top it off if needed. Since I'm not going deeper in than the point I stated I do not know what was said but do replace the rear and transaxle fluids and of course the air cleaner and cabin filter and top off the brake and power steering fluid if needed. I'm not knit picking when I say to stick with OEM products. Toyota engineers their vehicles as an integrated unit and it's best to keep it as original a possible. When you buy an FJ you are paying top dollar, so why risk it.
It is the right grade oil for 2007. After 2010 with the engine change they changed the grade to 0-20w.
One suggestion using the Motive Power Bleeder is to fill the brake fluid reservoir with fresh fluid after initially sucking out the old (I use a MityVac). Then just use the Motive to pressurize the system with air. Keep an eye on the fluid in the master cylinder so it doesn’t run low and top off as needed while you bleed the brakes. That will save you having to clean out the brake fluid from the Motive container. Also you can attach the drain can with the attached wire to your lug nuts and just loop the tube above the bleed screw to get your air escape space.
If you do run low on fluid in the brake fluid reservoir, do you just unscrew the Motive Bleeder cap and add the fluid there and then re-pressurize? Or do you add the fluid directly to the brake fluid reservoir (again having to re-pressurize the bleeder)?
@@elijahh2258 The Motive Power Bleeder is designed to hold the fluid inside the pressure vessel and push it out to the master cylinder forcing out the old fluid. But I find it more convenient to suck out the old fluid from the master cylinder, add new fluid, then attach the MPB and pressurize. I have less clean up to do that way. And with the correct adapter you can easily release pressure, unscrew the adapter on the master cylinder, add more fluid if it runs low, then screw the adapter back on and repressurize the MPB and continue bleeding with fresh fluid.
Awesome, Thank's for your video!!
Love this channel, just came to an agreement on a 1991 300zx twin turbo with 52k miles, garage kept, no leaks, in absolute mint condition, completely stock except for new exhaust with clean car fax. It does however need the 120k service by age and that was factored into the price when I negotiated. Certainly paid a premium at 24k but was listed originally at 34.5k. This was my favorite car in high school and plan on keeping a long time and putting money into it. I wanted as clean a base as possible. Can't wait to get it in my possesion
Hey! Nice! Congrats and thanks for the compliment on the channel.
What model battery is that? Is it like a 24r or 35. I want one but tring to get one that has a color. Your z is the same color as mine and came with a red top oem battery so it looks cool. The green looks great too
No idea sorry. I will be putting in the specialty z performance battery with my build, so I don’t even have that battery anymore
I like the white roof
Love your vids man.. How much for the front bumper?
Thanks! $200- just pay shipping
@@danmeyers8881 how much is shipping to 11787
Did you just use high heat paint to make your headers ( ??? I think that’s what they are) red?
I think your talking about the plentum and no that was powder coated a long time ago before I even owned the car. I’m currently cleaning that all up and will be re- powdercoating it
@@danmeyers8881 is that the only way to color this piece?
No, it’s just the most reliable, longest lasting. You can use high temp paint. Just make sure you clean it up real nice
@@danmeyers8881 thank you! Been tryna look it up but never heard the name plentum! I’ll do more research! Thanks for your reply!!
Very nicely done. I like your approach, so I just subscribed. I will now get the seat covers for my 08' FJ. Thanks...
Awesome! Thank you!
Good shit bro, i deleted everything also on my turbo along with all the other common deletes and its crazy how much weight you remove off these cars when you get all the old overgineering tech out of it.
Nice! Couldn’t agree more
Great Job👍 I'm currently restoring my FJ Cruiser (same color as yours) 😊 Stay tuned for my video tutorials & many custom upgrades!
I will check it out
Where did you get your covers?
Came with the car. The originals
Yes, the sling is a must. Also, if your rack is leaking at all, this is a great time to rebuild.
Thanks! Steering rack is all good! Thanks for the heads up
Just almost finished my motor tear-down, all I can say is simplify everything you can while it’s out haha. Merlin engineering do a AN water line conversion for cooling loop on the turbos which look the goods and would probably increase the cooling capability of the turbos. I’d also see if you can go the r35 coil conversion by polar engineering if you already haven’t, but other than that she looks solid mate 🤌
Appreciate the info! Thanks
700whp is very serious power in any mans language, so please make sure you have the stopping power to match the 'rocket ship' you are building. At least you have chosen one of the most beautiful production cars ever created to spoil. Thanks for sharing.
Nice! I do gotta say your manual skills look like you usually drive an automatic or something lol.
Lol
Wasn't alive early enough to be a "dream car", but I sure do love mine. I got a 150k mileage, dented, beater 300zx. Me and my dad brought the engine back to life, and now i'm trying to work on it more and get the body work done. These Zs are dear to my heart.
Nice! Good luck
Quick question for someone just scratching the surface on his own Z32, would you recommend an electric fan? I'm running a cheap chinese fan and clutch from the prev. owners. I'm hearing yes's and no's from different people, but none know enough to tell me pros and cons.
There’s so many mixed reviews. All I can say is I’m keeping my OEM clutch fan. They work amazing. Not to sure about your aftermarket one, but there’s a bunch of companies that make a very good aftermarket fan
@@danmeyers8881 Yeah, I've heard many good things about the OEM fans, and I'm pondering on switching to a TT fan or changing to electric. The fan I have now isn't efficient and makes a loud and obnoxious "WOOOOO" that sounds like a bus.
Im a little confused. Does the short line plug into the left or right of the sandwich plate. I dont want to plug the oil cooler lines in backwards. Thanks!
I honestly can’t remember, but I’m pretty sure it actually doesn’t matter
Absolutely Beautiful car. Tastefully done.
Thanks!
Black one is the same weight and knob with a black finish. I just bought the red and it’s 600 grams. Anyways nice car. I have a nasty Focus ST. Looks ralley man
