My 76' 280Z was one of my favorite cars ever built; but it was such a pain in the butt lol. We still need your help with the Z build though, so be sure to let me know what mods we should do to the inside of the car! Or don't, i'm not your dad. Oh yeah, don't forget to subscribe :)
I gotta be honest I put fortune autos on my 32 GTR and my gfs Wrx has BCs and the fortunes suck. I got them custom valved for the spring rate with swift springs and the generic BCs are better. My fortunes were as bouncy as everyone says they are at higher spring rates
Ooh, the Work ZR10 is a really good choice! I nearly bought a set in the same colour but in 17x7 ET47 for my 2010 Honda CR-Z. Can't wait to see how the Z build turns out!
Those wheels are really nice. Kind of like a more technical TC105 or ZE40. I've always heard good things about BC coilovers but my only experience was with a customers car that was slammed and dialed all the way stiff. I'm sure if it had been set up to be functional beyond rolling shots for the gram they would have been nice. Be cool to get a functional review.
I’m about to take delivery of a 24’ Integra Type-S and yeah I haven’t even begun to dream up how I want it. I’ll keep watching and see where you go with yours bud.
Honestly a Super GT or Really livery with ecstatic would look dope on the 400Z, one thing I would recommend looking at graphics from Nismo’s from the 90’s
One could argue that the conti extreme contact sport 02 are essentially the same tire for less money. They just are "posh" lol but man, they work and work well.
Alex, I watch every video of yours. How it comes that I didn't notice anything about your second UA-cam channel yet? I know about MartiniWorks but didn't know about the UA-cam channel. You need to advertise it a little more ☝🏼 Greetings from Germany
I feel like the Z gets more hate than it deserves. The people who did bad things with it have ruined in the eyes of many. I actually love them for the car not because they were/are “popular”.
It's one of those "cult classic" moments in my opinion. Something where you don't really appreciate it until after a bit of time has passed and I think this is a perfect example of that. Twin turbo, rwd, lsd, manual, 2 seats; what else would you want?! Unfortunately dealerships are still withholding them from coming to market without insane markups but I think once that goes away, you'll see them grow in love exponentially.
Yeah that a sucky situation. With the 350/370z the inexperienced brought them to the public eye in the worst way. People get slammed for liking them because of those people, when you actually appreciate it for being fun and sporty.
Because unrefined hooligans drive them. Saw a 350z with ridiculous camber looking like a clown car years ago. I am part of the s2000 community and the people driving them are more mature and classy.
@@1HeatWalk I’m glad to hear that. I by no means hate cambered cars but the level that TikTok took it to is very similar to a clown car. I’ll strive to be one of the people that doesn’t ruin them.
Ayyye someone else who started with a 3000gt. I'm starting out with a dodge stealth rn and I'm wondering what your experience with it was because mine is beating my ass.

The ZR10's are exactly what I was going to suggest! I want a set so bad!
You started with a 3000gt/stealth respect 🫡
his wife is hot guys
@@HITTHEHAZARD lol I just got a base SOHC 98 3000gt and its burning coolant. So need a new engine lol
Really love the breakdown of the goal for this build. Looking forward to how to feel about any difference between the coilovers.
Trying to bring everyone along for the ride!
The 300zx is 🔥, I was never a big fan of the 350/70, the new 400 is nice. Looking forward to your build

Thanks dude! Come back in two weeks and I think you'll be stoked with what we did with it!
Those are the exact wheels I want for my M2C! Absolutely love them!
When you decide to pick up a set let me know! WE have them over on MartiniWorks!
@@AlexMartini. appreciate it bud but I’m in Australia and I’m going to guess shipping would be wildly expensive

That's the goal! I'll get some miles on the BC's before switching and comparing!

Can't wait to see more of the new Z!
More will be coming out soon!
@@AlexMartini. WOOOOOOO
Love those wheels! I got the 20 inch for my gtr and it looks great! It’s gonna look sick on the z
Excited for the build, if you want to take it to the track you should get a sick cold air intake! Make it fast as hell
I was hoping K&N would come on board but I haven't heard back :(
Put tint on the katanas and see what it looks like, kind of two tone black up top I would hope to make the color of the rest pop that much more
Honestly a Super GT or Really livery with ecstatic would look dope on the 400Z, one thing I would recommend looking at graphics from Nismo’s from the 90’s
Definitely need to move the side mirrors up front
Z is one of the best platforms to do mods to 👌
I'm excited to see how this one takes to it all!
Excited to see the comparison between BC Racing and Fortune Auto coilovers. That's a big claim from BC Racing and not a small price difference.
Exactly; and that's what I wanna see

We're putting a set on a M2 Comp and comparing it to the Nissan Z on PS4s's at USAIR in a few weeks actually! Will report back
2:46 respectfully to both parties involved: can confirm 😅

i don't think you could build the car any better than you described it. Maybe a shift knob that matches well with the final build is all I would add.
I'm trying to find a brand that works well. We'll see how it goes

Full custom exhaust build 👀
You need to get rid of those 4 catalytic converters. They muffle the car too much. The exhaust not of the vr30 is very nice when unrestricted.
Totally agree. I want to see what it would sound with 200cel cat vs. catless, but we will find out!
Need those zr10s for my evo 😩
Pick up a set from MartiniWorks ;)
What if we did an older front bumper and grill something resembling the 300zx could be cool
Just put The Martini Works livery on the old Z it looks good on a racecar ! New Z not so much ! LoL
The yellow might clash with literally everything hahaha
@@AlexMartini. that is if you leave it lame yellow my dude ! Do it either white or black with the Martini Works Livery it be cool !
Ayyye someone else who started with a 3000gt. I'm starting out with a dodge stealth rn and I'm wondering what your experience with it was because mine is beating my ass.
Is yours the SL or VR4?
@@AlexMartini. It's a dodge stealth R/T so it would prob be closer to the SL. DOHC and FWD.
The 3000gt was the most interesting part of the video
More than the old z? :(
You should give street hunter bodykit a try
My husband said to get over fenders and fender mirrors take it back old school
Swan neck rear wing!
Know of any brands?!
Awsome 🚗💥💨🔥
You need some big big style work on the body too
Can I send you a shift knob? I hand turn classy wooden knobs on my lathe for my 370z. I’m betting all the specs are identical.
Do it up man! Send it to the MartiniWorks Address :)
@@AlexMartini. Anything specific you want? Most people want a plain dyed black but I can do most anything you think of.
How could you NOT Mention the viper??? Lol @1:20
Oh shoot! hahaa
2:46 "My wife is hot." Yeah we all kinda agree on that :)
What's a cmo
Alex is not far from 32 years old
Maybeee
Mhm what skateboard deck is that my guy?
Who's tuning it? 🧐
Dude could have got a hot Mercedes, and decided to get a Nissan. 😭
Such is life when starting over haha, don't worry we'll have one eventually. a pro spec AMG GT is the dream!
@AlexMartini. haha the z is still going to be a cool car.
How old are you?
Are you 33? Lol
