"I don't fuck around, I drive around with my dyno sheet in the car because people don't believe me I'm just like 'Read the sheet, man.'" This dude is fucking gold hahaha!!
He's awesome haha in any other One Take video there's atleast one of those comments "X amount of power? Bullshit" and this guy is just prepared for all the haters
Exactly, what Rentta said. If someone is introverted and isn't very talkative I certainly don't want to see them force themselves to be something they're not.
A tastefully modified 370. Tired of guys running excessive camber and stretched tires on Zs. It only ruins a great car. Being low is fine, a little rub is fine. Car sounds amazing (hard to make a Z sound bad)...and looks amazing. Well done sir.
It would be cool if it was a couple inches higher and didn't rub. Porsche pretty much hit the limit of ride height, you go any lower and the car really isn't drive-able.
These is probably one of my favorite "One Take". The owner doesn't intimidated or afraid of Matt. Plus Matt seems like he's enjoying this car. Its like two old good buddies going for a ride. Don't take my comment the wrong way. I think One Take is one of the best car content on UA-cam right now.
That's funny because right after I posted this I was like well okay, maybe it's equal to Jag one take :P The ratrod Datsun was dope (would love to see where it's at today) but this one (god I hate using this word now) trumps it.
Wesley Griffin thats literally all I see here in Dallas Texas is brothers in black or white crown vics with a muffler delete 😂 thinking they're driving a freaking lambo.
Brad Q But that look as good? inside and out? idk, mustangs and Camaro look great from the outside side, but are awkward from the inside (my opinion). And it's kind of lame to have one without the V8. again my opinion.
illsuspect Looks are subjective but ok, but I do agree a V6 powered traditionally V8 powered muscle cars suck. But there are German cars in the Z's price range that have the performance and styling.
Noise limit on a track is one of the stupidest things I ever heard. if you move next to a race track you should use common sense and expect alot of noise.
Balo657 For Real. I practically bought my house near Homestead race track FOR the great sounds. when you Walk out the house and can hear track days going on, it's the Best!
People actually do that kind of thing though - I used to live near the rail freight yards - a young girl moved in next door and constantly complained about the noise of the trains loading and unloading, and told me that she had repeatedly written to the council to complain about it. She could see the fucking trains and cranes and containers from the front yard, what the fuck did she expect? Stupid is as stupid does I guess.
Quit your belly aching... Just had one of our local dragstrips shut down because of this...People really are that stupid... Let's all move next to this drag strip then complain about noise..
@ 6:58 is when it gets priceless! Its a must watch. The banter, the theories and his response! This man makes its clear and to the point, and he carries his dyno sheet for a reason! You just gotta listen why!
Wow... That is, hands down, the best looking 370 I've ever seen.... I'm not usually big on body kits, but this one actually improves the look of this car...WELL DONE.
G weighs more/has better interior. Z sometimes gets old on the daily commute, but is rewarding in every other way. BOTH the Z and the G benefit from better tires, better rear differentials. One of the last true Japanese analog cars we can still buy new, but you have everyone calling them "dated" then the same people drive newer cars and complain about them not being "analog enough" so it's a no win. Hopefully nissan puts the vr30 in the new Z and keeps it under 40k (so we don't have to spend more $ for the Q60)
@07wrxtr1 Nahh. If they do it At all, add hybrid power to the front wheels, ditch the crappy spare tire and some ( already unusable) trunk space to add a smallish battery pack. Make a more compact TT engine to fit it all in. With electric pull on the fronts at take off we’re looking at a fast car. Plus you could cruise around town for a while with the engine off as an eZ lol. Nissan can do this if any engineers can.
Dragon ball Fan, Winner in my book! Cool details on the shiftter and on the fender to show off his love for the series. I really like the Amuse kit on the 370.
I'm live in Florida but when I visit Cali Neptunes Net is definitely on my bucket list. It's an iconic spot in the car culture. Specially those like me who grew up watching Fast and Furious
normally I'm not one for flashy mods, but the ones on this car, while flashy, are cohesive and well thought out enough to make the whole greater than the sum of its parts. the wheel, shift knob, and seats all match, and also match the exterior color.
I rarely ever see any black people on this show. For some reason it's rare for black men to like tuner cars or have tuner cars. Does anyone else notice this too?
You should hit more events that actually have enthusiasts as the demographic. Autocross in my region is sorta diverse. You can't base preferences on what you see rolling down the street.
I would LOVE to have this car. Beautiful, tastefully modded, great power increase over stock, sounds so good... Everything, imo, is great about Rich's car.
that car sounds amazing!!! great exhaust note! It probably rubs because he only normally has 1 person in the car. 2 people changes a lot when you're that low
This Z is perfect (except for the rub). So nice to see such a tastefully modded Z!!! Question: Is the hood not able to close with this SC setup? Mat, I'm 52, and although not my daily, I still love getting in and out of my 2007 350z!!! An aftermarket exhaust will free up 18-25 whp on the HR and VHR engines. I currently have 285 whp on my VQ35HR with just a "fast intention" exhaust and HFCs. Would love to add a SC to get Rich's power!
I think he has the hood like that to allow for additional cooling as the Z needs a bigger oil cooler once you start pushing it. Fast intentions is the way to go: HAND built in the USA! They have a 3 month waiting time for a reason. Cannot wait for mine to arrive!!!
Now a days idiots say durp its stage 2. Wtf is that I thought we where in the real world not need for speed underground. So stupid. Stage 1 2 3 etc fuckin hipster vapestain Subaru idiots
Enjoyed this one. Not really an import guy but this one was really good. Car looks and sounds damn awesome! Video was also fun to watch. Thank you for this one.
Great video with a great owner! I do not always finish these because they can be a bit look but with a guy like that, it was worth watching to the end.
Great Video maybe your best One Take Ever!8:45 Any California native can agree that when in a modified car there is always someone who's looking to test you....always!
Yea we all don't give a shit it sticks and it's fast. But having a dailed in suspension setup is critical too. I'm sure there are few shops in cali who do suspension tuning for living. Won't be very expensive either.
Damping wont do shit for scraping, that's body control (transitions/bumps). Car just need to be raised up a bit, or alternatively stiffen up way more (with appropriate damping upgrade). So yeah, probably more raised up a bit. It's riding too low for the spring rates and he's probably pounding through the bumpstops most of the time (and rubbing).
Why is Matt saying "this is the last (insert car) I'll be doing" all of a sudden? There's lots of cool builds that completely transform cars he's "finished" doing that I'm sure are still out there.
ToxicHorsePucky if a crazy build comes up, I'll always consider it, but at a certain point, I simply don't have anything else to say about a certain type of car and I have no desire to say the same things over and over in videos.
"i dont give a fuck about the Internet, fuck them" lmfao love this guy
Nick Bonilla that comment he made was gold lolol...Str8 awesome
You guys look like a couple of movie undercover cops
Martin Quin They would make a good buddy cop cast wouldn't they?
Xplosion51 you the one talking about Xplosions and glazed donuts 👻
car ramrod
🤣
Fat and skinny guy lol
"I don't fuck around, I drive around with my dyno sheet in the car because people don't believe me I'm just like 'Read the sheet, man.'"
This dude is fucking gold hahaha!!
He's awesome haha in any other One Take video there's atleast one of those comments "X amount of power? Bullshit" and this guy is just prepared for all the haters
Love to see it. guy did his car; loves it and wants to let em know.
i was scrolling down the comments, and wile i was reading yours it was that moment in video XD
Cars are built to be used.
"License, registration, dyno sheet". Classic.
this dude had my love at the Dragonball Z shift knob.
garf117 do you know if the Dragon Ball shift knob is weighted though? Lol like dude I’m going crazy to find out if it is 😂
garf117 lol I totally agree
Yup. Same generation as me. Dragon Ball
Good energy and conversation on this one. Take notes, y'all!
People have different personalities. You just need to deal with it.
Exactly, what Rentta said. If someone is introverted and isn't very talkative I certainly don't want to see them force themselves to be something they're not.
mr big Because this is a car channel not a let's review owners personality channel
I need to learn to make videos this interesting lol my wrx gets boring :(
Never said a thing about personalities. Haha. Salty, salty words.
A tastefully modified 370. Tired of guys running excessive camber and stretched tires on Zs. It only ruins a great car. Being low is fine, a little rub is fine. Car sounds amazing (hard to make a Z sound bad)...and looks amazing. Well done sir.
FideTheProducer lol he's got stupid low suspension and too wide tyres. lemme guess you're black too
Suckit up that insult doesn't even make sense idiot lol
Suckit up Damn man, I'm seeing you all through the comments. Another Pecker obsessed with black people. lol
It would be cool if it was a couple inches higher and didn't rub. Porsche pretty much hit the limit of ride height, you go any lower and the car really isn't drive-able.
"hard to make a Z sound bad" LOL they sound terrible from the factory, sounds like chewbacca taking a shit, terrible drone
These is probably one of my favorite "One Take". The owner doesn't intimidated or afraid of Matt. Plus Matt seems like he's enjoying this car. Its like two old good buddies going for a ride. Don't take my comment the wrong way. I think One Take is one of the best car content on UA-cam right now.
Easily my favourite One Take so far. Great banter between the two of ya and a fucking sick car! (y)
Very well flowing rapport.
yeah I agree, this was very chill and fun to watch, Rich seem to be a real nice dude to hang out with!
are you forgetting about the ratrod datsun
and the ls3 jaguar
That's funny because right after I posted this I was like well okay, maybe it's equal to Jag one take :P The ratrod Datsun was dope (would love to see where it's at today) but this one (god I hate using this word now) trumps it.
Dragon Ball shift knob.
Make Knobs Dragon Ball Again
That with that strut bar makes it.
i have a 7 star one. found it on ebay.
You rock.
I have have the 6 star
Dragon Ball shift knob went over Matt's head.
frenchie5k I'm pretty sure if your older than 35 dragon Ball means nothing to you.
MrGhost370 what saying is he was to old by the time dragon Ball got big here.
MrGhost370 The new one is even better.
frenchie5k he's like 40, it would be worse if he know about it 😂
Crazy right? He looks like krillin! Lol😂😂😂
That steering wheel is beautiful.
It really is, never seen that one before
It really is, it looks like some exotic modern Porsche\Dodge wheel with a flat bottom.
Orxon momo
You have zero taste.
If it had a Z badge that would be the perfect steering wheel!
you can tell matt liked this guy
This video was so chill
Nice to see another brotha into the car scene and not sportin some crown Vic on 24s
Wesley Griffin thats literally all I see here in Dallas Texas is brothers in black or white crown vics with a muffler delete 😂 thinking they're driving a freaking lambo.
Factss
Very true... I'm black and love my z.. Would never get a crown Vic...
Jets Set . I live in Fort Worth and I basically see the same thing.
I'd drive a Vic... Just not on 24s lol. My back can't take it
The 370z is way under-appreciated, its a great car an for the money there is no true competitor. Great owner, great car, great episode
There are plenty of cars in its price range that are as good if not better.
Brad Q But that look as good? inside and out? idk, mustangs and Camaro look great from the outside side, but are awkward from the inside (my opinion). And it's kind of lame to have one without the V8. again my opinion.
illsuspect bmw 335i is great performing and great looking car
illsuspect Looks are subjective but ok, but I do agree a V6 powered traditionally V8 powered muscle cars suck. But there are German cars in the Z's price range that have the performance and styling.
The Fulcrum *Cough *cough 300zx z32 TT *cough
First impressions of this guy were wrong. Cool guy, cool car, cool shirt!
and cool ass shift knob!
HAHA! What exactly was your first impression, noob?
why because hes black? racist
wow
OK Andrew L gets fuck wit award.
"I don't give a fuck about the internet." Hahaha, this guy is cool as hell.
If we were to build our cars for the internet, they would look like a car version of Frankenstein
Easily the coolest owner yet, and nice 370z.
Noise limit on a track is one of the stupidest things I ever heard. if you move next to a race track you should use common sense and expect alot of noise.
Balo657 For Real. I practically bought my house near Homestead race track FOR the great sounds. when you Walk out the house and can hear track days going on, it's the Best!
Yeah, it's like buying a house next to a Airport and then complaining about the noise....
People really are that dumb.
People actually do that kind of thing though - I used to live near the rail freight yards - a young girl moved in next door and constantly complained about the noise of the trains loading and unloading, and told me that she had repeatedly written to the council to complain about it. She could see the fucking trains and cranes and containers from the front yard, what the fuck did she expect? Stupid is as stupid does I guess.
Quit your belly aching... Just had one of our local dragstrips shut down because of this...People really are that stupid... Let's all move next to this drag strip then complain about noise..
The sound of this thing more than makes up for the sound of that Subaru yesterday. :)
Troggie42 Yes, that subi sounded like diarrhea. This Z sounds like sex!
Bow Wow made an upgrade from his Hulk car
More like T.I.
Angry Toast bow wow and t.i. did the fusion dance 😂😂😂😂
"my life be like, ooooooh ahhhhhh ooooooh ahhhhhh"
Ryan lmao gold
Lmfaoooo
Definitely one of the greatest One Takes. Great car, great owner and excellent energy
took long enough for an owner with some personality to get on here
the great Strait seriously
the great Strait they get all computer nerds he actually gets pussy
This guy...I like this guy, smooth cat.
This guy is awesome,wish all One Takes were like this
I haven't been enthusiastic about body kits like that since the 90s. But each to their own. Sounds good. The owner seems like a really nice guy.
DUDE, I'm 68 and still have a 350 6-speed (mild mods) in my garage. Age don't mean nothing when you enjoy driving. 😀
Awesome man, I hope to drive until they take away my license because of old age
I'm 70 and enjoy driving my 2019 370Z sport 6MT around the SF bay area. I'm going down to LA to get a custom exhaust system and a Stillen intake.
@ 6:58 is when it gets priceless! Its a must watch. The banter, the theories and his response!
This man makes its clear and to the point, and he carries his dyno sheet for a reason!
You just gotta listen why!
As a 370 Zed owner I really enjoyed this One Take, excellent interaction between the two.
Haven't watched a one take without skipping in a while. Good chemistry.
"There's no way you can run Laguna with this exhaust..." - "That's why I haven't been back!" LMFAO
the confidence in his ride, attitude, breathes more confidence. just like everyone else, i really enjoyed this one take as well! Great job matt!!
shiet its T.I
T.I.P. comin live from the V.I.P.
Wow... That is, hands down, the best looking 370 I've ever seen.... I'm not usually big on body kits, but this one actually improves the look of this car...WELL DONE.
Most beautiful 370Z I´ve seen! Great build! :)
This guy seems so chill and genuine.
Cool build, Driver, and Vid. I've been on the market for something new. He's making me consider a 370z. Good Stuff!!
Stefan Myers dude in my area brand new 25k for one fucking steal I want one
Steering wheel is awesome. Also this is the best sounding 370Z I've heard
I drive a G and i love the VQ engine
Brad Rothschild the VQ engine is fantastic. I had a maxima with the VQ. I loved the power band on it.
A G is not as fast as a Z lol rythms
my g35 sedan is faster than every 350z ive ever came across but my next car is a 370z for sure .
G weighs more/has better interior. Z sometimes gets old on the daily commute, but is rewarding in every other way. BOTH the Z and the G benefit from better tires, better rear differentials. One of the last true Japanese analog cars we can still buy new, but you have everyone calling them "dated" then the same people drive newer cars and complain about them not being "analog enough" so it's a no win. Hopefully nissan puts the vr30 in the new Z and keeps it under 40k (so we don't have to spend more $ for the Q60)

Plus you could cruise around town for a while with the engine off as an eZ lol. Nissan can do this if any engineers can.
I've heard from others that the 370Z's engine is quite durable, good vid.
this guy is a beast
Iron Sheik why?
Dragon ball Fan, Winner in my book! Cool details on the shiftter and on the fender to show off his love for the series. I really like the Amuse kit on the 370.
Dude's lookin like a superstar with those aviators on.
That's a well done Z, nothing RICE about it.
When I get one, it's straight to the rice fields
this one take is one of my favourites sick looking Z and the owner is just mellow and chill. Matt seamed to really like this Z a lot.
The shift knob solidified it. This is my favorite car.
This is one of the nicest looking 370z ive seen. its such a nice clean look
Bay Area, right on man. Matt needs to get up here and do some one takes on Highway 1. Love the Point Reyes area.
I'm live in Florida but when I visit Cali Neptunes Net is definitely on my bucket list. It's an iconic spot in the car culture. Specially those like me who grew up watching Fast and Furious
As much as I love our 911, I do miss my 350Z!
Thats awesome, T.I. drives a 370! This dude was cool as hell.
what exhaust, header combo is he running? i NEED it for my Z. it sounds so beautiful
I like the passengers who actually talk and are sociable. Have him on again, Matt!
he loves his car^^
normally I'm not one for flashy mods, but the ones on this car, while flashy, are cohesive and well thought out enough to make the whole greater than the sum of its parts. the wheel, shift knob, and seats all match, and also match the exterior color.
I rarely ever see any black people on this show. For some reason it's rare for black men to like tuner cars or have tuner cars. Does anyone else notice this too?
sharpemang No, not every black guy likes huge rims on old cars lol
Justin P I'm saying man, where you guys at lol. You guys are like unicorns
You should hit more events that actually have enthusiasts as the demographic. Autocross in my region is sorta diverse. You can't base preferences on what you see rolling down the street.
SDD525 I live in the same area as Matt. Venice lol
Yea I feel alone
This is a really good One Take! Fantastic interaction between the owner and Matt, and the car was well-done too, a bit of rub aside.
Best one take so far! Love the Z and that DBZ shift knob is golden. Cool dude in from SF too
One of the coolest owners and cars. I loved that Z, and the Dragon Ball shift knob.
I would LOVE to have this car. Beautiful, tastefully modded, great power increase over stock, sounds so good... Everything, imo, is great about Rich's car.
that car sounds amazing!!! great exhaust note! It probably rubs because he only normally has 1 person in the car. 2 people changes a lot when you're that low
why are all black guys so cool?*not racist*
Pawan Kumar lol.
Pawan Kumar anyone can look cool. its really up to the person, not the race.
Pawan Kumar "ask a black dude with Paul Mooney" haha
Pawan Kumar lol😂😂wtf
scrapes every bump. cool = "try hard"
Easily one of the best one takes yet!! Also, can wee all appreciate that SHIFT KNOB. Dope.
This Z is perfect (except for the rub). So nice to see such a tastefully modded Z!!! Question: Is the hood not able to close with this SC setup?
Mat, I'm 52, and although not my daily, I still love getting in and out of my 2007 350z!!! An aftermarket exhaust will free up 18-25 whp on the HR and VHR engines. I currently have 285 whp on my VQ35HR with just a "fast intention" exhaust and HFCs. Would love to add a SC to get Rich's power!
Quidproquo07093 my dad is 53 im trying to get him into jdm but he likes v8 i telling him to get rid off the tahoe n get something fun so we can cruise
For cheaper than a new Tahoe, you could get those guys to build him a ls miata. How's that for compromise?
Ask him to get a 350/370 and do a LS conversion then you're both happy ^^ (and bring it on one take)
Quidproquo07093 SR20 is the way to go. #SR20gang
I think he has the hood like that to allow for additional cooling as the Z needs a bigger oil cooler once you start pushing it. Fast intentions is the way to go: HAND built in the USA! They have a 3 month waiting time for a reason. Cannot wait for mine to arrive!!!
best one take yet. Coming from a Z owner this man reps the car well
Matt make a shirt that says licence, registration,dyno sheet./mod list. I would buy one.
Great idea. Sent it to my T-shirt people. If we end up making one, you get one on the house.
Now a days idiots say durp its stage 2. Wtf is that I thought we where in the real world not need for speed underground. So stupid. Stage 1 2 3 etc fuckin hipster vapestain Subaru idiots
TheSmokingTire Thanks Matt. It will look great with your other shirts
Yesss that's a fantastic idea. Will be my first shirt from TST
Cha Ching! Shirt is now in the store. Email me matt@thesmokingtire.com your address and I got one for you.
Enjoyed this one. Not really an import guy but this one was really good. Car looks and sounds damn awesome! Video was also fun to watch. Thank you for this one.
Genuine question: How much difference does a strut tower bar make? (The one on this car looks super awesome by the way.)
One of the best one takes in a while.
Sign this guy up as a presenter. Quick!
Love this Z34 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 Owner knows his shit too. Need more enthusiasts like this on the channel 💯 The strut bar is an awesome touch as well
a twin turbo setup on these run very nice and sounds insane
prab virk but reliability
Josh Clark relabilty on the turbos is just fine, I know tons of people here in the UK who have done it and use it for drifting
prab virk I'm not saying its impossible to have a reliable TT car it's just the more complexity you add to ANY THING the margin for error is greater.
prab virk i prefer a single larger turbo on it.
Great video with a great owner! I do not always finish these because they can be a bit look but with a guy like that, it was worth watching to the end.
"433 wheeeel 339 tooorrrrque." Haha love this owner. Sick car too.
You need to give this guy a tv show. Best 1 take in a long time!
This guy is awesome
seems like a really cool guy, I wish all one take owners were this chill
damn a lot of the last of these days man! are we out of cars
Just making room for that new shit.
Omar Chakkour probably makes it easier to filter for new things when people don't make submissions on cars he's done several iterations of
nta hna hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
hhhh ana hna w tmak w finma mchiti atbi
One Takes will probably end soon. On the podcast he said that 500 is the magic number. Probably won't do more.
This is one of the best one takes in a while
really cool guy!
By far my favorite one take ever, this guy was super genuine.
sick car!!!!
Great Video maybe your best One Take Ever!8:45 Any California native can agree that when in a modified car there is always someone who's looking to test you....always!
I didn’t know T.I was into JDM cars lol
Isc is local to me. Great guys, always up at the track drifting and actually testing their products!!
Man u need to adjust the damping and rebound to get it not to scrape.
TRDSpecs Like he said he doesn't give a shit
Yea we all don't give a shit it sticks and it's fast. But having a dailed in suspension setup is critical too. I'm sure there are few shops in cali who do suspension tuning for living. Won't be very expensive either.
Damping wont do shit for scraping, that's body control (transitions/bumps).
Car just need to be raised up a bit, or alternatively stiffen up way more (with appropriate damping upgrade). So yeah, probably more raised up a bit. It's riding too low for the spring rates and he's probably pounding through the bumpstops most of the time (and rubbing).
I broke my exhaust off before learning this..... $$$$$$
He black, is coo mang
Agreed, peaking through all the comments and I agree with everyone. This was one of my favorites so far this year, the energy was great between them.
I didn't know T.I had a supercharged 370Z lol
One of the best looking Z's ive seen and one cool owner!
anyone else notice Goku holding the Z symbol on the fender :D
Thats Vegeta....
jody024 I assumed it was goku because he had his hand up like the spirit bomb, but they don't get close enough to tell
Nice catch, super hard to see so mistaken identity can be forgiven. lol
Quality video and vibe. Loved every part of it !
The steering wheel really stuck out to me, my favorite mod on the car.
LOVE that body kit!
I want the same set up for my g37
easily the best car I've ever seen. just a beautiful setup. kudos
Why is Matt saying "this is the last (insert car) I'll be doing" all of a sudden? There's lots of cool builds that completely transform cars he's "finished" doing that I'm sure are still out there.
ToxicHorsePucky if a crazy build comes up, I'll always consider it, but at a certain point, I simply don't have anything else to say about a certain type of car and I have no desire to say the same things over and over in videos.
Fair point. I'm just hoping that people who have cars you're done with don't get discouraged from sharing.
SDD525 Yeah, its unfortunate.
That shift knob is SICK!
That z is baaaad!!! Love the momo !! Who cares if it rubs.. Rubbn's racing!!!!
u killed it on this one Matt... it's hard to get everything right every time. but this was a great video... thx
Didn't know that Lewis Hamilton is driving a Nissan ;-)
Christian Meisel Come on now this guy is way cooler than Hamilton.
his modifications show great taste in style. sweet ride.
