No he just isn't used to driving it. He mentioned 'its a first for me' when Larry was orgasming off the sound of the BOV's, so homedude prolly has just driven it around the garage and that's all.
I love everything about this build aside from that sound from the VR30 engine. I wish Nissan would release a true successor to the RB26 which happens to be a turbocharged straight 6...
From here on out, if I'm ever feeling down, I'm going to watch this video. Words can't describe just how GOOD this set up is! I currently have a G35 Coupe and plan to turbo it soon! Can't wait!
@B. Chandler yeah that's why I said "most" I mean like Audi V6 5.2s are like one of THE best engines ever made if not The Engine P.S. considering when they first came out
Larry’s work is absolutely amazing. If I were a manufacturer, I would sell a testicle to get Larry to shoot my product. So few cars are selling right now that no manufacturer is really all that concerned with security of design. Being open and luring customers into their development strategies is a great idea. I drive a Nissan daily, and my weekend car is a 944. I suspect my next one will be a 370Z...I honestly want that suspension setup for my Porsche really bad right now.
evan hasner i think he probably meant to say from the turbos all the way back, you know since turbos run off the exhaust but then shin i wouldn’t doubt it
evan hasner i think he probably meant to say from the turbos all the way back, you know since turbos run off the exhaust but then again i wouldn’t doubt it
Is that why they're referring to it as the new 300ZX? I almost thought they would have swapped the VR38DETT from the GT-R instead, but I guess that might have been a bit too much with a car with such a short wheelbase...
I recently purchased an ultra-low mile '07 Infiniti G35S Sedan, with manual 6-spd. transmission, and the 3.5VQ hr motor. I'd love to get the chassis tied down nice 'n tight, and wake the already powerful-for-it's-time engine up. Highly underrated car with lots of potential.
Wow as soon as he gets pressure that is when you stop and really notice all they have done and they need to bring a 3 whatever you want to call it ZX to there line up even if its just an option like hell cat ect ..... great work Larry always get stoked when your videos are up
its the delay of the electronic throttle body. he would have let off the gas before letting the clutch off but the tune of the computer wont be set to respond that quickly. being that the engine was only ever offered in automatic it would still be running the same tune i would say.
Why would you want a newer small turbo motor in the next gen Z. Possiblities with 370Z VQ's are better including the Titan 5.6 V8 drop in and not fabricating shit up. No one wants a 2.0 turbo, do you?
Apparently Mr. K died 2015ish and Nissan might lose that Z heritage for sport car as it halted. They Z might become a sport crossover next gen with the next designer, sad. Like the mitsu eclipse. If you do buy a 370z get it in white and base model add your own lsd wavetrack or any kaaz 2 way. The nismo has nothing good but feels for 20 grand more. Unless you like it stock the nismo Z aero looks terrible.
Tommy Sandoval they look nothing a like you don’t understand card. The heart of the 300zx is no where near comparable to any new car. You’re also a month bub
That's because we're all spoiled by the sound of VQ37VHR motor. It's one of the best sounding engines out there and not too many engines can match or top its sound.
What feel? Modified cars don't feel anything like stock anyways. Either the chassis is tuned for balance at limit(fast lap) or give(fun). The VQ is best motor from Japan. And the Z34 is the most fun Z.
AWESOME CAR AND SHOTS!! BUT, you know messed up the editing when I have to rewind the guy talking to hear what engine is in the car. They don't state they swapped out VQ, well they don't make it very clear IMO. Its almost like they had someone new edit this one... I could be wrong it may not have been an editing issue and the Nissan guy just didn't say it up front. IM DROOLING!! I WISH THEY WOULD HAVE SAID THE TOTAL RETAIL COST OF THIS SWAP!!! We all know NISMO stuff is NOT CHEAP!!! More like hella expensive! Nissan won't ever do this, but they totally should!! Why would u buy a GTR tho if they offered a Z with this spec???
I think tuners just pick something to see if it's possible. Current VQ37 with a Fast Intentions TT easily makes 480hp for +/- 12K. Nissan has got to find a way to it's next iteration and more power, so why not a VR30 TT since it's already proven in the Q60? It will be interesting to see how they answer to the Supra? NO collaborations please!
Very nice I think Nissan should have included the orange paint in the colour lineup. Friends of mine owned a original paint 1971 Datsun 240Z, in Sunkist Orange and the colour really does the car Justice
It's just a VR30DETT out of the infinity q60 mated to a stock 370z transmission. But it is a 3.0 liter twin turbo so that's why he calls it the new 300zx.
I think “Blow off valve” is the only turbo term Larry knows lol
Justin Zuniga its the only term, “son” 🍌
He’s a photographer not a mechanic just sayin

*edit* And that car is sexy too
Welcome to Hoonigan Bonus.. its Larrys new Shoot and build breakdown channel! Haha
No problem
This car is the orginal test mule for the current Z model.

From here on out, if I'm ever feeling down, I'm going to watch this video. Words can't describe just how GOOD this set up is! I currently have a G35 Coupe and plan to turbo it soon! Can't wait!
"The exhaust is great."
Really??!! ...From inside it sounds like a '93 Civic DX with a loose fart can exhaust!
But, I love the rest of the car!
V6 themselves rarely sound good
Sounds like that outside too
@B. Chandler yeah that's why I said "most" I mean like Audi V6 5.2s are like one of THE best engines ever made if not The Engine
P.S. considering when they first came out
I first heard the drive by and thought it sounded nice and was gonna argue...then i got to the clip where he is inside 😂😂
Well it is almost completely gutted, so that has a role in how it sounds inside
Saw this car when they were still modding it in the shop. So cool to work with these amazing people who create pieces of art like this
Looks so good but sounds so bad (except at idle it's okay)
Am I just that high on lsd or did they not say what swap it had?🤷🏻♂️
Brandon Lewis they said they worked over the motor.
I'm curious too.. he did say the term "swap"
They refed the factory power of 400hp which is the twin turbo VR30 capable of in the Infiniti models
Yeah im confused. Is it a stock motor with some bolt ons? Or is it a 300zx motor swap?
@@breakupgoogle maybe its a q60 swap or something
Lowkey great editing on this video!

MrFlashRoc thanks... was trying to figure that out
Is that why they're referring to it as the new 300ZX? I almost thought they would have swapped the VR38DETT from the GT-R instead, but I guess that might have been a bit too much with a car with such a short wheelbase...
It's actually a vg30dett. It's an old iron block from the z31 300zx. That's why he's saying the new 300zx. But the generation to come is a new 390z.
Jovan Solomon lol no. It’s the engine out of the q50 400 or whatever they call it these days.
It's a vr30dett
No diss to anyone else on the crew, but, aside from Ken, Larry’s out there doing numbers and filming the best content. Good job, Larry.
starting to like this channel more than the regular one
"That exhaust is great" Top lie of 2018
imagine keeping it clean
I'm sorry but while you were riding in the car the exhaust sounded like a shit can Civic muffler with holes drilled in it
THat is so true
Making the vq engine sound good is impossible
This one is not as bad it almost sounds like a Porsche
Because its straight piped without any muffler or resonator, if they put some muffler in it it wouldn't droning so bad and sound tastier.
@@johngorgis there's not a VQ in this its swapped
That Z is ridiculously clean! 😋 Nismo's had cool polo shirts since I can remember, Hoonigan performance polo reverse engineering in progress... Lol.

Dunno bout that zorst. Sounds half Honda, half tractor
It sounds horrible

The 300zx will never be replaced such a beautiful looking and performing car
Michael itsYAboyMB Well sorry to bust your bubble but the z34 did that lol
@@pushhrodd01 maybe to you lol its still not a z32 and never will be
Please shows us between the engine and transmission, is there an adapter plate? Or what bell housing are they using??
For those still confused, it is a VR30DDTT and the car was built by MA Motorsports

So beautiful 😍 it’s absolutely perfect
as always thank you larry for the beauties you deliver. this thing looks like a dream. its fit and finish are amazing imo. thanks larry
sounds like rear mounted twins turbos for some reason. sounds amazing looks great
The whistle of the blow-off valve tickles my ear... it sounds so good
Nissa guy clearly has no idea what he's talking about and omg his shifting! Wyd bro?...
Right, blipping the throttle on upshifts?!
its the delay of the electronic throttle body. he would have let off the gas before letting the clutch off but the tune of the computer wont be set to respond that quickly. being that the engine was only ever offered in automatic it would still be running the same tune i would say.
WOT shifting, good for the clutch lol

Looks like your wish has come true mate, I've ordered the new Z. I hope you have done the same.
Where can I see your photos? The blog don't update often.
Did Larry just do a super quick build bio? Lol Larry doing the most out here
Those guys who don't like the exhaust sound of this car are definitely never been any real race event ever!
You can't really compare a z34 to a z32. Anything after the z32 just doesn't have the feel that the older z's have.
agree nothing feels like my S Chassis does
Isn't the z34 spiritually incline to the Datsun? Lol. The lines I mean
What feel? Modified cars don't feel anything like stock anyways. Either the chassis is tuned for balance at limit(fast lap) or give(fun). The VQ is best motor from Japan. And the Z34 is the most fun Z.

Aye I've been toying with the idea of sliding the VR30 into my G37, AMS did a lot of work on it and can probably answer a bunch of questions.
That exhaust vibrating too much, def no muffler, what is that like 110dbs?

Kinda disappointed with this one . This video does no justice does mention the swap details of the 3.0TT
Nissan doesn't want to give away details about much since they haven't publicly announced the 2020 Z yet.
It's just a VR30DETT out of the infinity q60 mated to a stock 370z transmission. But it is a 3.0 liter twin turbo so that's why he calls it the new 300zx.
