Thank you guys for watching. If you guys want a signed print for your wall I print all of them myself from my large format Canon printer larrychenprints.com/
You're right America buys more Z's than anywhere in the world. So why Canada is paying $4,000 less when we buy 10x more Z's...?
For those who don't know Nissan has historically used #23 on a lot of their race cars because in Japanese 2 is pronounced "Ni" and 3 is pronounced as "san" so 23 would be "Ni-san"
Prayers for you larry. Thank you for the video. I know kens passing isnt easy for anyone esp the people closest. Again thank you.
Thank you Larry for your life's work in automotive industry. History is made every day with living legends like yourself. 43ver
How you get brown stuff of your nose bro?
Dude ease off with the brown tongue.
I couldn’t imagine anyone from the Hoonigan family posting anytime soon. If I’m this heartbroken, I can’t imagine any of you guys. Y’all please take care of Lia, and his family. #KB43VER
Heart did on his channel
@@derekgrant1783 I know. ❤️
Sorry for your loss Larry...because of YOU Kens life’s work will forever be etched in American car culture! Sending lot’s a luv&aloha from Hawaii brahda🤙🏽🙏🏽
not just America buddy, I live in the UK, yesterday I purposefully wore a Hoonigan T-shirt, I went to the grocery store after work and you wouldn't believe the the amount of head nods and thumbs I got, everything from teenage kids to 50+ guys
@@daboy12s
We ALL understand Ken’s a WORLD wide icon...but he’s from our side of the pond💪🏽
@@808vws8 sorry I had no idea you have to be from the same country to appreciate someone, hope your ok reading this in OUR language
6:05 Nissan/Nismo used to make a factory GT4 equivalent of the 350Z called the 380RS-C. It was priced around $200k and was actually raced throughout Asia and specifically the Nurburgring 24hr under the Falken Racing team.
Nice! Do you know how many they made? Or I guess did they make them available to the public other than the people racing them on Falken etc?
@@phlooke I'm not sure how many they made exactly but there were a substantial amount raced in Japan over the years. Similiar to the GTR GT3, I believe they were available to anyone who placed an order but I could be wrong!
They also did this with the 370Z, i find it funny that Chris didn't catch that considering Brian Heitkotter was driving around in a 370Z Nismo RC for Doran Racing back in 2015-2016.
The Nismo RC is essentially the same thing as this, meant to be homologated in GS/GT4 classes back in 2014 or so.
@@maizurieta1 That's true, I just don't think Chris has been into circuit racing long enough unfortunately.... There was also the Gran Turismo GT Academy (Team RJN) which used the 370z GT4 at the Dubai 24hr and potentially one of Silverstone endurance races?? I cant remember. Nevertheless, Zs have always been good race cars!!
Hope you and the rest of the Hoonigan crew are okay. Sending love
With kens passing I appreciate you and everyone else at hoonagian now more than ever ken was gone too soon thank you for always posting amazing content
I always watch Larry’s videos until the end just for the epic outro.
U ain't lyin
Only UA-camr that I'll Always watch the outro! Sh*t is fire!
Me too.
I learnt about Ken from Dirt, and saw his crazy and the coolest drifting videos around the world, especially in the empty SF city. RIP. Good to see his spirit is still carrying on strong.Take care.
Natural carbon fiber is made from plant fiber rather than synthesized chemicals for the cloth material. which cuts down a ton on greenhouse gases and toxic chemicals and energy used. They are making plant based epoxy also.
Nice car throughts and prays for the Hoonigan family ✌✌✌👍👊😎
Chris, Brandon and the team at super chill 🙏 lucky to have met them before
Chris had the best garage full of Nissans in my book
Rest in peace to the GOAT of the century 😞
23 in Japanese is Ni-san....
Therefore Nissan...
Really enjoyed this, great feature.
Extremely sorry for your loss.
This new z is a beautiful car. I'd love to have one but I also love my 2022 wrx.
I want GT4 racing to take off in the US. It’s such a badass old school car spec.
That "Natural carbon fiber" isn't actually carbon. They are using Flax, or hemp instead. It is a little heavier and not quite as strong, but is great for things like body panels that aren't really structural.
I want one so bad! I live in Alabama so I don't even know where I could race it, but I need one.
*250,000, nevermind I just want a 400z.
Barber Motorsports Park !
Love Larry...Ohhhhh...Ummmm...Wooooo...Aaaaaa. Gaaaat it. Super cool dude and I honestly look forward to all his vlogs.
Hmmm. My Dad had a 1975 Datsun 280Z in that exact blue, with mag wheels. He drove it till 1993 when he sold it to buy a Volvo 850 Turbo. He knows the guy he sold it to didn’t drive it after he bought it. This wasn’t found near SF CA?
Looks like such a fun car to drive. Simple and clean, with just a few extra "pro grade" mods like the stands, the SADEV and that absolute gem of an ABS setup. Wonder how hard you need to press the brakes for anything to happen.
Oh, man, if only dealerships didn't screw over consumers by jacking up the price you'd probably see a few more on the road
My 75’ runs perfectly fine with the efi system? I think the only upgrade i would want would be the fast efi system 🤷🏼♂️ i like the fuel injection but i guess if you’er looking for that throaty carb sound, to each their own….
Do they make ITBs for the L28? Seems like the best option.
The number 23 means, 2 pronounced has ni and 3 pronounced has san in Japanese. so, ~ Nissan.
Nissan latest F1 car numbered 23 for the same reason.
The Zs are basically american cars. From the very start, they were all about catering to the US market. All thanks to Mr. K
23:08 hahaha im dying love larry
Wenn Ihr schon WERBUNG für das Wunderbare Auto macht , so bringt BITTE eure Werbung in DEUTSCH da ihr es ja in Deutschland verkaufen wollt.
Dude has his own z channel and doesn't know a 240z from a 280z?
Good stuff, it looks so good in this trim.
Still waiting for an independent timed laps track test of the GT4, race cars are not only for looking at and it's getting frustrating waiting for something so basic.
This car follows the ethos of the Nissan 380RS-C
Drool worthy Z! amazed at how skinny that steering wheel was..
Didn't Nissan also call it the Z instead of Fairlady in the US because their market research said Americans would prefer the sound of 240Z?
Where's the twin turbo 300zx
FB always lets us take a peek
Ford sells factory race cars too
When you find an old car like that, you really shouldn’t mod it. I mean, I’m sure your mod would be cool for the moment but future generations won’t be impressed with what you do to it. You should keep it bone stock.
this new z look is starting to kinda grow on me
Better looking than any boring Porsche
Dude I hate guys who don’t know how to film, if your talking about a subject learn to keep the camera on the subject not some you tuber who thinks we tune in to watch them,it’s the subject matter
Actually they released the 380rs-c which of course we didn’t get the 380rs or the 380rs-c
Did I hear that right? You can order it from nissan for about 200k? And it got 100hp less than stock?
I drive my Z nose '78 Z thru "NATURAL CARBON FOREST " every week end ! Yeah ,I love that place.......
You know the 240Z had a real wood and resin rimmed steering wheel ,that was a big step in composites in 1969 -73 ! How cool is that.
Buy the way,,I'm heading out to "Natural Carbon Forrest" this week end for a picnic with my girl friend, she loves long walks in Natural Carbon Forest as she looks for Natural Kevlar flowers!
The most are sold here not cause of the car but simply due to the population of car guys :) plus the rest of America lol
Let's keep it about the car....just for a little longer.
- Weird that this thing doesn't have two holes for the dry break filler. That's usually a thing that's there so that air can rush out of the fuel tank as fuel rushes in, speeding up the whole process rather than having bubbles interfere with flow. Did they say this was race spec?
- I kinda just assumed all GT4 cars had flat floors, like GT3 cars do. Also note the complete lack of a proper diffuser - just a lot of cooling equipment and that single exhaust.
- Oh yeah.....kinda digging the single tailpipe. I'm not usually one to care about this, but it feels very "JDM".
- Did Chris say he was getting two new cars or one? Eager to see the new Z in GLTC form, if that's happening.
- 17:53 LOL at the stock key just ziptied to the fucking big red knob.
- Hatchback gets a big thumbs up from me, in general. Missed opportunity for so many sloping rooflines to have hatchbacks. It helps practicality a TON. Cool points for the new Z.
Lastly, gotta say......Chris Forsberg at the Indianapolis 8 Hour. I hope there isn't an FD clash (EDIT: THERE AIN'T! YOUR MOVE, NISSAN!), because it'd be kinda cool to see Chris tackle an endurance race. Maybe just bring the entire GLTC team out, Heikotter and all, with a guest driver to fill out the order, then send it. Maybe the N24? Now that Nissan finally have a new factory GT car, the sky's the limit for cool shit to happen. Frankly, Heikotter's performances in SRO Esports races have me convinced that he shoulda been a GT3 driver YESTERDAY. I'm genuinely looking forward to seeing how the GT4 situation develops, and if it leads to a little bit of the old Nismo coming back _(fuck I miss Nismo TV)._
(It goes without saying that everyone close to Ken Block needs peace right now. I don't have much to offer except well wishes, but we're all thinkin' of you, Larry. Fascinating vid as always.)
I hope Nissan does 1000 limited Edition release of this GT for paint scheme.
Both the 350z and 370z had factory race specs similar to this.
400hp 380RSC for the 350z and 350hp 370 nismo RC. Pumped up NA VQ and racing platform built by nismo.
Nissan can build a car like this, but Subaru dumps the STI in the trash....
i have a z32 convertible twin turbo i am going to sell if you are interested!
who wants to build my 510 Sr20?!
I am 6'4" tall, do I fit with my helmet on? It's a dream, and probably will remain one, to race it at the Nurburgring 24h race. So enjoy it, if any of you compete with it.
Stop interrupting Chris…😂 he’s getting pissed my man.
It actually looks like a modern day F&F car, but without it looking ugly. Nissan did a good job on this design.
I hope this car comes the GT7... and the Camaro GT4.R and Civic FK8 TCR...game just needs a buncha Gr4.
Hello Chris ! Thanks for video to show your 400z GT4 ! How much for everything you did after this ? May i know ?
Porsche used natural fibre on the Cayman GT4 Clubsport as well. Road & Track has a write-up on it from 2019, explaining what it is and why they use it.
I know it really doesn't matter but.. 4:50 just hurt me
Yall think Chris is paying sticker for these Zs?
Omg I have some of those cars that are featured in The Crew 2
Can you get dual weber carbs for an L28 Chris they would sound so good on that Z man ! GT4 is awesome if i could have a new Z thats the one id want to have for sure and with that single exhaust I bet it sounded so good !
Larry you NEED to do a Z drive with Orange Bang, Gold Leader, DOC Z, and a few more Z guys. Do a ride out!
Love the dig at gentleman drivers being on bad shape lmao
This is a hard watch man you keep interrupting
Why did they put dodge charger wheels on the z
There's no "dry" carbon used here, and the natural carbon fiber isn't carbon fiber at all. Basically those traditional parts are made from actual carbon fiber fabric preimpregnated and traditional resins derived from petroleum products. The "natural" carbon fiber is probably a linen or hemp fiber and potentially resin derived from plants - so not carbon at all... unless you count that everything on earth is made from carbon :)
so awesome!!!! love the fact the fd cars have some throtl stickers on it!!!! can't wait to see the 400z gt4 running!!!
Where can I purchase that spoiler?
Wasn't it weird the way he said radiator at 10.33
Needing out over a rice car.
Tell Chris that I will give him my L26, twin SU carbs, if he get me a RB25.
damn how are nissan/nismo not gonna put lmgt4s on that
Love this! man Me and my Dad are building a 260z like oem plus style.
Nissan also still sells the GTR GT3. It won the Super GT 300 class this year
Larry stop breathing into the mic!
Looks so nice.
Amazing to see, specially as a GT4 fan. Thank you very much for sharing Larry!
Who makes the exhaust….is it Nismo?
The orange peel in that wrap is insane. Have they not figured that out yet
I love my Nissan Z 2023 400Z
I'm looking for sponsorship PLEASE Larry , 🙏🏼 I've had my 88 10th anniversary RX-7 for 24 year's!!! And I'm disabled ,helping thousands of diabetics doing my best ! Engine is about done , 13B TURBO BRIDGEPORTED, And will doing fundraising for my community and many things trying to get my Small town connected 😀
Sounds like you need to talk to some local or some near you performance shops or go to a show and talk to some different companies the key is to sell yourself and what you could do with their parts on your car !
Wow can it rain one on me for free lol
They need to make a modern datsun 510 version off this chassis.
what the heck is natural carbon fiber? it doesn't use resin?
Thank you Larry! I love those hanging out video. Sending much love from up north in Canada.
14:06 I’m really digging that single exit + additional coolers setup!
Amazing Z i miss owning a Nissan had a 85 300z and a 91 240sx i live in Utah now so I'm into subies now 2021 WRX totally different Nissan are built for a beating...
After watching Donut Medias hi car low car with the pair of WRX's I don't see how anyone would put their money into a Suburu.
What a awesome car great video larry looking forward to seeing your racing career take off you got this
Yeah I can sell ya a r32
