That is the sort of cool sponsors! It's a lot nicer to see local companies reaching out to you and helping out in person, than all that Dollar Shave Club, Skillshare crap and others alike who reach to all sorts of random UA-camrs not even related with their business.
I know!! I'll admit that I have done those "other" sponsored integrations in the past, but doing things like this is soooo much more natural and it actually HELPS us vs just selling out an ad spot, it makes it so much more worthwhile at the end of the day.
These videos are always so wholesome and educational. Kyle makes connections with the best people. I've followed his builds from the beginning and I'm always excited to see a new upload. Well done Kyle.
This is the Video I had been waiting for a long time. I can't thank you enough for your content and direction that your taking with the 240sx. I Really appreciate all you had given us man. Thanks you so much Kyle. From StabTheDabb.
The quality of this project is just from a another level. I love some other UA-camrs as well, but most of them just seem to want to make good content and not really focus that much on the quality of the work and to the attention of detail. However you do the both really well.
It's always sad to see the end of your vids. I love watching these types of vids. Cannot wait for the finished product and cannot wait for you to one day be able to drive it!
As a certified welder myself, I can tell you Jon is an amazing welder. I've always struggled with TIG welding because it's super difficult to master the technique, but and he clearly has mastered it.
@@saabkyle04 hes been keeping me posted everywhere ig text message UA-cam I'm well in the loop with your build and I haven't even seen it in person lmao
This dude is an artist Kyle and your car step by step is becoming a masterpiece!!Respect for your work and for the thing that you share it with us! Can't wait for the project hit the road and take the satisfaction of your feelings with your Garrett turbo boost!! Going to follow you in Instagram right now! Your fanatic follower from Greece!!!
@@saabkyle04 I think that the most tricky part was done from Jon and the exhaust is going to certify his very good work!Well done Kyle,waiting for the next 240sx upload!Take care and goodnight from Greece!
I would strongly recommend welding gussets into the upper intercooler mounts, and the lower ones too if they're made of right-angle steel like the upper ones. With the right-angle steel you can get flex where it is bent into the right-angle which will cause vertical vibration in your application and that could cause the mountings on the intercooler and/or the welds on the charge pipes to fracture. Some people might say it's not necessary, but I would say that that's how the brackets would be built if they were being used on a race car to ensure reliability so it certainly would be worth it to ensure the reliability of your Nissan and to prevent premature failure of what is almost certainly and expensive intercooler, as well as potential turbo and engine damage if foreign bodies get ingested...
I have a clip of me standing on top on the intercooler after we installed it, it was welded at 140 amps and full penetration it isn't going anywhere 💪🏽
6:00 I bought one of those Ryobi ONE+ drills and I must say they are so great. The battery is smaller and lighter than the old NiCd and also lasts what seems like forever longer between charges as well. Unfortunately my Ryobi kit was stolen one day and I replaced it with the new Craftsman drill that comes with the C3 19.2v lithium batteries. In principle, it is the same as what I had, but it seems to me like the C3 batteries are a little longer life than the ONE+ batteries.
Great content mate, love the attention to detail. I just took receipt of my running RB25(DE) S13 which i'm pretty pumped to get into after watching this :)
Hey Kyle I got an idea the for oil to the turbo situation. Put on an external oil cooler just like the Jimmy had but use teflon lined braided steel AN lines instead of rubber. But run the pressure line from the engine through the turbo so the hot oil goes to the oil cooler and the return line has cool oil going back to the engine so the oil lasts longer.
Saabkyle04 omg you replied! I can’t wait for the car to be done too! I’m extremely impressed with how thoroughly everything is being done, and it’s really awesome to see where it started and where it is now!
Have you considered a power steering cooler and oil cooler? I'm also building a type x hatch and I'm currently gathering parts for a power steering cooler system
Hey! Unfortunately I don't have an avenue to film Toyota products at the time being. When I dive back into filming more reviews I'll see if one can be sourced somehow. Thanks!
THIS should have been the THING back in the day, when we surely deserved much better than Pimp my Ride! Jay-Z is somewhere with creeps when Kyle is on air.
So what are your plans for the brake booster/master cylinder? Are you going to fab a metal wedge plate between the manifold and turbo to tilt the turbo to the left towards the valve cover? Or is it something else? I love the attention to detail here, good job!
Thanks buddy! I just ordered a brake booster delete kit from Chase Bays. I got a bunch of stuff from them to just replace as much old stuff as I can with things that are designed to work with the swap. It'll make things a lot cleaner and I think I'll enjoy the feel of the manual brakes more than the boosted setup.
@@saabkyle04 Well I can't wait to see the set up soon, it should be really interesting! I haven't ever seen manual brakes on a modern car like this so it will be fascinating to see it all together! Good work
I have 2 questions: How much HP your engine will give at how much psi? I have a J line model... just wondering, because I can't fit any bigger intercooler. I see that you went from 3" to 2.5" THANK YOU
Aw, that's too bad, at least you made some great content with it. Also a great first car story, glad you were able to share your experience with rebuilding your first car.
Those welds are unbelievably good.
Dude, Jon knocked it out of the park, they're spectacular in person!
Ultra tig skills!
Now this is wat I call a RestoMod.
my only experience with welding is from UA-cam videos but those are definitely some of the prettiest welds I've seen

Thanks a lot Alex! We're only just beginning too!
Thank god todays the first clear day around charlotte. Great to see the journey continue!
Thank you Edward! That's the truth!
This guy is a welding genius! That’s proof of what long time practice will do
I just binge watched all of these 240 videos starting with the first one in 2016 and its so awesome to see it come this far!
Wow those welds are damn near godly.
I knowwww, I was mesmerized!
This is the Video I had been waiting for a long time. I can't thank you enough for your content and direction that your taking with the 240sx. I Really appreciate all you had given us man. Thanks you so much Kyle. From StabTheDabb.
Aww man, I appreciate that! Thank you for supporting the build with all of your comments and suggestions!
@@saabkyle04 your very welcome man.
I found the series and I just can't break away from watching. Love the stuff, it enabled me to see the whole turbo system, greetings.

Thanks so much, that means a lot!
He looks like Jason from engeneering explained but with a beard.
I was thinking he had an uncanny resemblance to Charles "The Humble Mechanic" without as long of a beard haha. They even talk the same I think! 😂
Less annoying too
It's always sad to see the end of your vids. I love watching these types of vids. Cannot wait for the finished product and cannot wait for you to one day be able to drive it!

He's all self taught too, amazing guy!
Much appreciated dude ❤ I'm honestly my own worst critic ask Kyle lol
@@jondillard3777
I guess that's how you got to be this good!
Kyle the way you hold your self and edit these videos is like This Old House and I love it haha
I am ashamed that I never watched TOH, but I get where you're coming from haha, thanks pal!
I've never clicked on a video faster in my life.
Thanks so much!
I'm probably the 1st to watch this amazing video.
The cleanest video I've watched this week.
Thank you so much!
Can't wait to see the finished product... Looking good my friend!
I didn't notice the rain noise in the background until you mentioned it and now I can't unhear it :
That front set up looks cool, (sorry for the bad pun), but great RestoMod none the less. ;)
Hahaha thanks dude!
Holy crap, that dude can weld! Really nice work - that car is gonna be SICK when its done!
Jon is amazing!! I'm dying to hear it run, trying to go as fast reasonably possible haha.
@@saabkyle04 Don't rush it!! But I know what you mean - I'm quite itching to hear the thing run myself!! keep up the good work!
That dude is laying some dimes, even when he’s not in his shop
Men...that beast coming out so well. I'm happy
Me too my friend, me too!
Fantastic job Kyle, this ride is coming together for sure!
What an awesome fab job, your buddy Jon is an artist indeed.
I can't wait for him to come back down. We're shooting for the end of this month. We have a handful of cool ideas for the car!
John is a great guy does amazing work
Yeah he is/does!!
@@saabkyle04 hes been keeping me posted everywhere ig text message UA-cam I'm well in the loop with your build and I haven't even seen it in person lmao
Loving these restomod vids man! Tons of inspiration for when I get 5 mins for mine!
Thank you so much!
It's insanely hot it Australia atm, the sound of rain on the roof is nice. Great build, and good to see you guys using safety equipment. ;)
Can't wait to hear this thing roar!
This 240 is gonna be so freaking awesome! 😍
So pumped!!!
This dude is an artist Kyle and your car step by step is becoming a masterpiece!!Respect for your work and for the thing that you share it with us!

Thank you my friend! Jon is incredible, I can't wait to see his work on the exhaust. Of course, we'll shoot a video on that too!

Thanks for watching Jed!!
Great watching this car come together.
Thank you for the support!
Beautiful work. I absolutely love seeing these videos
I find myself enjoying these videos and I'm not sure why as I am not really into car modding.. guess I like it because it is Kyle lol...
Whatever the reason, I really appreciate your support my friend. Have a great day!
can not wait to see the final results
It's going to be great!
You are my favorite youtuber. I love watching your videos!😁

@@saabkyle04 Just keep doing it brother! You'll get better every single time!
Thanks dude!!
This car is going to be glorious.
Yeah it is!
You and Chris fix should race when it's done
Those welds are beautiful
I've been working on my 240sx for 11 months now, and I will say I want to see yours run almost as much as mine lol.
Haha I appreciate that dude! Best of luck with your car!!
It sure was a productive episode. Loved the welding. :)
Awesome video Kyle!
Thanks Andrew!
I watch it to the end amazing job
Than you!!!
Awesome car and build keep up the great content, Its very enjoyable as a car enthusiast.
COOL Custom Fabricated Charge Piping & Intercooler Mounting: 240SX Restomod Ep.30
Kyle the 240sx is looking better than ever
Thanks Alexander, I just want to hear this thing run as soon as possible!
What an amazing job and brilliant welding. I’m following him on Instagram too. Love the Clarkson sticker on his helmet 😂😎👌🏼
Those welds got me feeling super jealous
Me too! I want that talent hahaha.
Kyle would make the perfect future host of Motor Week.
Amazing fab work!
Jon is soooo talented!
Keep it going Kyle!
You got it!!
I didn't know Kyle could weld!! Pretty cool 😎
I wish I could weld like that LOL, I'll be getting into it soon, lots to learn!

Work very nice and well done Kyle
Thank you!
Hey Kyle make sure to take the spark plugs out and crank the motor for about 15 to 20 seconds with oil to build up oil pressure.
For sure 😎👍
Heyyy love this channel but time for bed i will watch tomorrow Kyle
No worries Jack! 👌😁
Hey Kyle I got an idea the for oil to the turbo situation. Put on an external oil cooler just like the Jimmy had but use teflon lined braided steel AN lines instead of rubber. But run the pressure line from the engine through the turbo so the hot oil goes to the oil cooler and the return line has cool oil going back to the engine so the oil lasts longer.
Super clean man!

Well Kyle's you look so cool in a beard that's called your shop the Apostle's
Wow!! Really nice!!
Thanks Robert!
Awesome vids brother !
Thanks a lot!!
Nice work
Good job guys
Thanks Erick!
Looks SICK! 👊🏻👌🏻
Thanks pal!
This makes me want to buy another Miata and restomod it 😹 beautiful build Kyle!
Thank you Sean! She's coming together, yet there's so much to still do haha. I'm hoping this beast will be on the road by summer!
Saabkyle04 omg you replied! I can’t wait for the car to be done too! I’m extremely impressed with how thoroughly everything is being done, and it’s really awesome to see where it started and where it is now!
It’s always raining in your videos!
Dude, seems that way!! I'm so tired of it. This has been the wettest fall/winter we have ever had.
Dope as hell !
I know right! Jon is one talented dude!
Looks awesome
Thanks Owen!
Great content Kyle! I believe you should wear a welding helmet when using a plasma cutter...
Yeah probably lol, for what it's worth, I wasn't looking directly at it.
OMG how good was that man I think I need a mate like that 😎
I'm lucky to have friends with many talents hahaha
Super cool!
Thanks Paul!!
He do Very Nice 👍🏽 welds love the videos
Yeah he does! Thank you!
The welding gun sounds like a hair cut razor
Type x front bumper 😍😍
It looks soooo good! Wait till the rest of the OE kit is installed 😊
Got to get some insulation on the inside of the roof my dude.
I have some, but it's only enough to block out water/moisture. Need to get some more lights before I start throwing up more insulation haha.
Have you considered a power steering cooler and oil cooler? I'm also building a type x hatch and I'm currently gathering parts for a power steering cooler system
Friendliest UA-camr ever
That's what I've always gone for! It's all about enjoying things and having fun, life's too short!
Awesome piece of art
Yeah it is, Jon did a fantastic job!!
Oh god Heatwrap Heatwrap Heatwrap Heatwrap!
looking good
That’s a $70/hour welder right there folks
Video Idea: Do an interior detail on the GMC Jimmy by gutting it like the Nissan 240SX
Have you considered runway racing? Your 240s gonna be fast. It'd cool to find out how fast.
Great video keep it up.
Thanks a lot!
Kyle please do an in-depth tour of the new 2019 toyota gt86 trd! It’s beautiful!
