This build is very exciting. I plan to be with you on every post. The quality of your content is second to none. Your enthusiasm is so much fun to see.! Let's go!
This video definitely reminds me of the scene in the first fast and furious movie where they begin to build the supra and have all the parts ready to build 🔥
Dude you just made my day! Love the gears and gasolines guys and definitely aspire to create content on their level. Appreciate the stoke on the build!
The car came with a PBM highmount intercooler which doesn't work with the factory A/C. I'm trying to see if I can find an A/C setup that would work with this intercooler because I love the placement and the piping would be nice and short.
This is kinda nuts , pretty much a 240 dream build right here with quality parts. I'm pretty amazed. I'm currently building a 240 and I wish I knew how to get my hands on a handful of these parts. I don't even want to ask how much was spent or I'd hurt my own feelings knowing. Can't wait to catch up on the video series and see how this turns out : )
I belive if you get a Subaru Impreza GC8 Ac condenser and flip it upside down it should work perfect for you I know w AUS spec one should work perfect for your situation.. and also I’m so happy I’ve been with your channel for a while now its been that long I honestly can’t remember but you always have the most cleanest builds and appreciate them all and I love that keep up the great work brother and can’t wait to see the next vid!! ❤️❤️
Oh hell yeah, I'll look into that! And thank you so much for being subscribed all this time and continuing to watch the videos, that means so much to me. Appreciate the kind words about the builds too!
I just hustle my ass off and make some bad financial decisions haha. This isn’t my full time job, I work full time so that helps. I also detail, wrench, and provide marketing consultation to make money on the side.
This is awesome I’m building my other 240 this year trying to figure out my engine plans may just go with the enjuku kit mine is in that nice green and is absolutely rust free can’t even find surface rust my other one not so much but can always clean these cars up somewhat easily
I was searching this kinda video. Thank you soooo much. Do you have the part list for all? I m trying to do everything you did on the video. I have 1996 180SX
Glad you enjoyed it! I don’t have a list as I sourced stuff from all over, some new, some second hand but let me know if you’re looking for something specific.
Thanks my dude! Anything new I buy from Nissan Parts CC, RHD Japan, or Nengun. The used stuff I find from people on Instagram, Facebook marketplace and Facebook groups.
Would it not be possible to run that intercooler and have custom AC lines made, which may even improve the AC? Feel like I've heard of a few doing this
So lines would be pretty easy, just costly, the real issue is the stock condenser goes where the intercooler air. But I'm going to reach out to a contact I have at Vintage Air and see if there's any sort of aftermarket solution that I could maintain the factory controls. I do lover where the intercooler is cause the piping would be SUPER short but I can't do it at the expense of A/C. Haha
Funny enough, that was the other wheel option I was considering! I'd like to eventually get a set that I can have in rotation but I fell in love with the CR Kais and pulled the trigger on these.
Your plans mirror mine in some ways. Motor crossmember powder coated black... check.. Urethane bushings in the rear subframe... check.... SPL arms all around... check... Fortune Auto 500-series coils... check... Not sure what I'm doing for brakes yet... Z32 like you... or something Wilwood... motor is still up-in-the-air... decisions decisions... Any clue where the original owner got all the hardware? That is going to be crazy awesome to have... I hate putting old hardware on areas of the car I just got done de-rusting/freshening up! The sheer organization and attention to detail the previous owner paid is impressive... most of these cars just seem to get hacked together nowadays. Great choice on the wheels... I was planning something similar for my own build, but I don't know where I'll end up yet... I assume the fenders have already been rolled and/or pulled as needed for tire fitment? It looked like they may have been, but it was hard to tell for sure. Would suck to mess up that fancy paint job!
You've got great taste my dude! All the hardware is the original hardware zinc coated by neu.jdm in Texas. Hit up Mike, he's great and who I'll be using to zinc all the S14 hardware as well. And isn't it crazy? This was literally the best case scenario of buying someone else project I could ever imagine. It was that combined with how well the car was cared for from the beginning/it was stock up until he bought it made it impossible for me to pass this thing up, I had to find a way to buy it or I'd regret it forever! Thank you, I'm so happy with how they look next to the car and can't wait to see them on it. And yes, the fenders are rolled thankfully!
Out of respect for the previous owner I am not publicizing the purchase price, but I will say these things are getting cheaper and you're going to have to pay for a clean one.
Appreciate the sub and the more the merrier! Too many clapped out, neglected 240s out there. I’m always glad to hear about more well cared for examples.
Please make the engine reliable and not a 500hp shitshow, too many people build these insanely clean cars with way overpowered motors that just let them down constantly. That parts list is insane though man absolute dream build
That's the plan! High horsepower numbers are pointless if you can't enjoy them. My goal is a reliable 400 horsepower that's fun to drive on the street.
@@avengednick it is not. It’s kouki aero. Type x was a sub model. The tail lights and front bumper came on every kouki 180sx. You could buy an auto type R with the aero package IE, side skirts, spoiler, and rear valance.
I was primarily talking about the aero package pieces you mentioned being type X so I feel like we’re splitting hairs here but I appreciate the insight.
Underrated should have way more subs, keep it up💪🏽
My dude, thank you!
Just “finished” building my s13 Silvia and now want to start again after watching this video 😂
Sorry for the bad influence… Haha
Just came across your channel and I’m blown away at how underrated this channel is! Crazy high quality videos.
Thank you man, these are the comments that feed my fire to keep going! Glad you’re enjoying the content
I’m so glad UA-cam recommended me the first video of this 240 I can wait to see the progress on this
Me too! Thanks for the support!
This build is very exciting. I plan to be with you on every post. The quality of your content is second to none. Your enthusiasm is so much fun to see.! Let's go!
I appreciate that! Time to get it!
Can't wait for it to be finished!
That makes two of us, it’s going to be soo good!
Best content on yt for sure keep it up bro you will get far🤙
Thank you, that motivates me more than you know! Appreciate the support
This video definitely reminds me of the scene in the first fast and furious movie where they begin to build the supra and have all the parts ready to build 🔥
Haha hell yes, I love that! I think we've all dreamed of doing a full build like that so I can't wait to share this with all of you!
Keep re watching these videos tryna get some parts while I'm here in Japan!
Hell yeah! Have you scored anything rad yet?
Respect for a clean build! putting Tacoma on the map 🙌🏻
Appreciate that my dude! PNW represent!
The professionalism of the vid made me think u had wayy more subs(giving gears and gasoline vibes) 😂ready to see the process of this car gettin built🔥
Dude you just made my day! Love the gears and gasolines guys and definitely aspire to create content on their level. Appreciate the stoke on the build!
What intercooler are you gonna use just wondering to see how you are gonna cut the bumper and run ac
The car came with a PBM highmount intercooler which doesn't work with the factory A/C. I'm trying to see if I can find an A/C setup that would work with this intercooler because I love the placement and the piping would be nice and short.
Next level build for sure awesome 👍 can't wait till the next video
Thank you man, I appreciate that!
wow wow wow mantap bro! im so jealous...
Thank you!

Thank you man! And a lot of this stuff us out there, some you have to be more patient and keep an eye out for. Appreciate the support!

where are you getting the money for these builds and can i have some?

Hell yeah man, finding one without rust is damn near impossible today so hang on to that one for sure!
I luv og oem cars.
OEM+ for life!

Where did you pick up the zinc hardware from?
That’s all the original hardware restored by Mike at @neu.jdm on IG
Yet again another awesome video! Where do you find all the parts to build these cars?

@@avengednick ah totally makes sense. AC is def a must luxury and worth the work. Look forward to seeing the solution
you should get bronze TE37s for it 17” front 18” rear style. edit: nevermind cr kais are mega
Funny enough, that was the other wheel option I was considering! I'd like to eventually get a set that I can have in rotation but I fell in love with the CR Kais and pulled the trigger on these.
Whats the name of the the company that u partnered with on this build.
Drift HQ!
What are the offsets for the wheels?
+28 in the front and +20 in the rear
@@avengednick Thank You!!!

how much did you spend in this car (sort of) greetings!
Out of respect for the previous owner I am not publicizing the purchase price, but I will say these things are getting cheaper and you're going to have to pay for a clean one.
Love the build so far. For suspension I'd check out what SaabKyle04 did with his S13. I personally thought what he did was amazing
Thank you! And I'll check out his build, thanks for the recommendation.
love it! sub'd. ...clean. but, not alone. i have an equally clean 93 hatch in blue. they'd pair well. following build
Appreciate the sub and the more the merrier! Too many clapped out, neglected 240s out there. I’m always glad to hear about more well cared for examples.
Looks like Tommy fyeahs build
Stick around and you’ll see it’s going to be on a completely different level
Please make the engine reliable and not a 500hp shitshow, too many people build these insanely clean cars with way overpowered motors that just let them down constantly. That parts list is insane though man absolute dream build
That's the plan! High horsepower numbers are pointless if you can't enjoy them. My goal is a reliable 400 horsepower that's fun to drive on the street.
@@avengednick i was more envisioning like a reliable 250, But its your car. Good luck making 400 reliable and streetable
@@OPEK.mate its not hard to make a reliable 400
Powered by max.all the way. Spl stopped development on the S13.
Are you saying the stopped developing after the S13 or didn't fully develop those parts?
@@avengednickI meant R&D. Ill support companies that's still pushing S chassis alive. I do love thier tie rods and endlinks.
This car is basically a copy of tommyfyeahs 180sx
But it will be nicer 😏
Do a give away and only let me win jk
I'd love to do a giveaway to this level in the future, but it definitely won't be any of the cars in my garage currently! Haha
Stop saying type x aero.
Lol what? That’s literally what it is
@@avengednick it is not. It’s kouki aero. Type x was a sub model. The tail lights and front bumper came on every kouki 180sx. You could buy an auto type R with the aero package IE, side skirts, spoiler, and rear valance.
