I love when you drive the coupe because it’s like the “hero car” of the channel, but I agree you should build a new comp car. Everyone in your friend group and the fans always get bummed when this car gets into accidents because we know how much work you and B put into it to make it nice
@@SMUDESS It'd be interesting to see what engine he goes with. He's always saying how weird the jz feels in an s chassis. The 180 with an ls would be dope. Compete a lot better than another 400hp sr. What'd be better is an s14 or 15 since they have better geometry.
I’d really love to see you use the red e36 for a drift chassis. You have the built motor, the m3 subframes and the knowledge. And since there’s so much fab work involved in taking down a chassis and doing all the work, it’d make a lot of great content. And by next summer you really could have it ready.
I dont think he will prep a RHD e36 imported from japan for comp, that VIN is to rare for a comp car. Buy a ship shell and building it is the most efficient way to go imo
@@Slammed46 both m5x and s5x engines are used worldwide for drifting. Like sure, you can’t make 1000lb ft with them, but they’re plenty capable. Theyre great engines, we just don’t have a million of them running around, and therefore less specialist.
Always love hearing the excitement in a car guys voice when things come together and your project does what you intended for it to do. We really do be coming alive. It's like kids on Christmas morning and unwrapping that N64.
Comp/ seat time build: E46 sedan, there’s loads of them, they are cheap, tons of aftermarket support, they Can be made too look the shit, you can go thrash the hell out of it and not die a little inside everytime it gets hit or scratched like with the S13, because it’s too nice for comps now.🖤 And this is ALOT better than most UK car content nowadays,keep it up!🤘
thank you for the good editing and the music level between cuts is perfect. almost every youtube video ever has music that is 2-3x as loud as the other audio. THANK YOU, the effort and skill is noticed and appreciated.
Honestly your my favorite youtuber rn, the content is always interesting, humble character, and knows what we wanna see. Plus we live in the same state. Def would love to meet all yall at some event or something.
Do a OG early 2000's d1 style comp out of one of the hatches at the shop. But have updated suspension stuff and all put into it. But still keep it SR amd stuff.
Definitely not a mistake making the trip out, so good to see you get to run shoulder to shoulder with experienced drivers. Going to be great watching your skill improve each event!
The excitement in your voice during this is why car guys are car guys. Always brings me up to see guys like you get to that “it” factor. Keep it up dude!
Loved being able to see you this weekend man, glad I got the opportunity to chill for a minute and talk. Appreciate the content. Keep up the great work!
19:37 Found out recently the % for a forecast isn't the chance of precipitation it's how much of the projected area will receive the precipitation, so if it's 40% rain and you live in Brooklyn NYC then 40% of Brooklyn is projected to receive rain.
It's becoming a regular thing in my life to watch these videos with my GF, and I love when I pause or rewatch a part 15 times while I'm going nuts because I can see jimmy stepping up into this new realm of drifting and explaining to her why I think so. Then immediately being backed up by jim when he says how crazy different it feels, how it should have felt all along.
My opinion, if Jimmy wants to build a pro-2/FD style chassis, I think the 180 would be a good way to keep the S-chassis spirit without the attachment we all have to the 1J Coupe or cherry hatch or any of the other cars we’ve watched him build. If not, we all know he’ll do something super dope regardless
Jimmy you should see about a tire sponsor honestly. Even if its discounted rate for you vs "free" tires. Just a thought. I think you are marketable enough for something like that. Just do what you feel is right. Love the channel! Can't wait to see what happens next!
I drove and instructed at the corvette museum’s track on Thursday 2 hours south of Salem, the day switched hardcore from being crazy hot, to cold and wet. Sorry to see our Kentuckiana weather has been so rainy for your visit so far.
@13:03, @j race cars with as much jam as youre making neeeeeeds rear mount radiator. that way you are doubling if not tripling the amount of coolant in your system and the added piping adds to the cooling effect as its more surface area to help dissipate the heat. you need to rear mount. alos that will help increase efficiency of your intercooler as well. less flow restriction from the rad. win win win!!!
Love how humble Jimmy is saying he has to break habits and get "better" but in my eyes it looks like it's clockwork for him! But I hope to be even 10% as good as jimmy whenever I start drifting! 🙏
Travis is killing it and making us PNW boys proud, love the content with all boys that's what life is about, making memories and having fun... love to see it 🤙
You need some Derale fans boss. The ones on my VVTI 1J S13 work very well, they do 2k CFM each. Those and a derale oil cooler with the fan/fans on it help keep the car running very cool plus you're already on E so those things will make a huge differnce, I recently lived out near AZ for a couple of years and keeping the oil temps down drastically help with the water temps.
Hey buddy love the driving also I think it was your clutch slipping and the reason for the grind is also because it’s not fully dis engaging bring the rod in for more pressure or it’s to far in and it’s been smoking them! People forget you can’t adjust clutch pedals on hydraulic clutches for better feels!
I know exactly what you mean. Drove with my mate to get my Caterham 7 flat floor set up for my weight with correct camber ride height etc. can’t believe how much better it is. Feels totally different and then my mate was just chuckling as he didn’t get it so much😅
It’s so awesome seeing Jimmy so happy about the coupe suddenly. He’s seemed so down about how he didn’t like the performance. I really hope he takes this car far and does what he wants
Jim I really take my hat off to all you guy... driving 14 hrs straight is crazy to me bud... I live on a island that you can go around in literally less than a day... mind blow bud... have fun!!!
I think Jimmy should take a vacation to Florida and a build a drift car with LZ. I think with a proper car he could really shred!! Regardless, keep killing it Jimmy, loving the content as always!!
Let jimmy know that I know where the holy grail twin turbo 300zx is. Its like someone checked the box on the build sheet that just said all when the order was put in. And from what I understand just from factory upgrades the car is already pushing close to 500hp. If he wants to know more about it let me know. I just figured if anyone would appreciate a car like this with all of the plastics still on it, window stickers, and it's only been test drove a few times, jimmy would.
To me, the coupe has always just been a seat time car. A kind of car you can go out and rip on without a care about cosmetic damage or what not. Building a different chassis would be the way to go and would also bring a new car into the shop. Which we all know would please jimmy very much! Regardless its always dope to see the coupe rippin. Once i get settled im gonna send some fan mail your way!
Need to see a Oakes Race Team or something similar merch collection that all fund goes towards your new comp chasis. We'd definitely have your back and sell it out in the first week!
Man it never gets old seeing the coupe rip i agree its a different monster now and sounds sick af id like to see u get another coupe to build as a deticated comp car u gotta stay in a black coupe tho but one u dont care about lol i know thats no easy lol
Damn man, I was starting to get upset when Jimmy was talking about scrapping the chassis as the main comp car. Seeing him shredding immediately after was the best second hand excitement ever😅 I absolutely love the S13! Such a good car!
Fucking stoked to see some competition content on the channel, excited to see you branch out to the comp world! Build something nuts for next year, but learn what you can in the coupe!
Bro I’ve always wanted to make it to riverside. It’s only 30 minutes away from me and now their biggest event is going on. A couple days before of course I had to catch covid. Hope you all have a good time
man u killed it Jimmy ... i so just wanna ride with ya a few drifts to maybe gain some knowledge but also bro u rip tf outta that car fam ... peace n love bro keep it rad stay safe and build on brotha ... l8z ps that thing banging limiter sound so rad fam
As i am not a patreon i dont know what you have in the works but i think a bmw comp car would be sick. e36/46 chassis behaves great and you can see how many people use them plus they can fit any engine you want.
I love when you drive the coupe because it’s like the “hero car” of the channel, but I agree you should build a new comp car. Everyone in your friend group and the fans always get bummed when this car gets into accidents because we know how much work you and B put into it to make it nice
this is the way
maybe one of the hatches?

I think he should take the e36 and make it a monster, just my opinion 🤓
It’s like adams cream s13 “the og build”
+1 for the comp chassis build
Would really love to see jimmy get into competitions and build a car for it.
I’d really love to see you use the red e36 for a drift chassis. You have the built motor, the m3 subframes and the knowledge. And since there’s so much fab work involved in taking down a chassis and doing all the work, it’d make a lot of great content. And by next summer you really could have it ready.
Hell at that point just have Mr.Lz setup that e36 to the same suspension spec as his klutchkickers car. Jimmy would have a wild setup at that point.
@@johnmay6432 agreed. If jimmy goes nuts with the suspension stuff and mostly leaves the rest alone, he’d have one siiiiiiiick car.
I dont think he will prep a RHD e36 imported from japan for comp, that VIN is to rare for a comp car. Buy a ship shell and building it is the most efficient way to go imo
@@dpedd12 that motor will not hold up in a drift car. no one uses M5X or S5x in comp for a reason

Have a safe trip. Can't wait to see how it turns out.
Jimmy, Welcome to Indiana!!! Home of the Greatest Spectacle in Racing “The Indy 500” and The Motorsports Capital of the World!
My opinion, if Jimmy wants to build a pro-2/FD style chassis, I think the 180 would be a good way to keep the S-chassis spirit without the attachment we all have to the 1J Coupe or cherry hatch or any of the other cars we’ve watched him build. If not, we all know he’ll do something super dope regardless
Good to see you getting seat time
That little piece of electrical tape over the info is a life saver!
Use that 180 shell you have laying around for a comp chassis, seems like a good time to use it
Jimmy you should see about a tire sponsor honestly. Even if its discounted rate for you vs "free" tires. Just a thought. I think you are marketable enough for something like that. Just do what you feel is right.

Car sounds spectacular nice job so simple and clean

I know exactly what you mean. Drove with my mate to get my Caterham 7 flat floor set up for my weight with correct camber ride height etc. can’t believe how much better it is. Feels totally different and then my mate was just chuckling as he didn’t get it so much😅
My new E30 bootleg tee came in super hyped to wear it out tonight!
Top effort, really nice and controlled steering input.
Well done Jimmy!
mr oaks your energy throughout this video was fire!! good to see

mount an electric waterpump. that way you can keep the water circulating and the fans running when the engine is not running
It’s so awesome seeing Jimmy so happy about the coupe suddenly. He’s seemed so down about how he didn’t like the performance. I really hope he takes this car far and does what he wants
Thing rips
It was so crazy seeing this car at my local track as well as many others. You were shredding man!
Enjoy have fun and do your best
Get those brand deals baby!!!! AutoZone? Macdonald's? Where you at!!?
Jim I really take my hat off to all you guy... driving 14 hrs straight is crazy to me bud... I live on a island that you can go around in literally less than a day... mind blow bud... have fun!!!

Hell ya Cricket is awesome! Love the cameo
Buddy your going to need to put a LS in your next car. It's that big torque an power that they just pull away. But car looks alot better now.
To me, the coupe has always just been a seat time car. A kind of car you can go out and rip on without a care about cosmetic damage or what not.

Way to go Jimmy. Good experience time on the track ✌️
Hopefully we get to see this full competitive car build from you jimmy good driving man
Definitely start from scratch to build a comp car. Don’t use the s13, use a more modern platform that you won’t feel guilty if it gets wrecked
This car definitely isn’t setup properly to be a comp car. Definitely keen to see you build a dedicated comp car.
I came out yesterday, and the show was definitely fire!! Today is going to be wild I'm sure 👌👌
