A 700HP Saturn Sky is Hilariously Dumb
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 тра 2024
- The Saturn Sky is not usually what comes to mind when thinking of an American sports car icon. It was also the Opel GT and Pontiac Solstice - so the chassis was well known around the globe. However with it's ecotec engine not a lot of people pushed the car to it's full potential...so crazy people swapped them to things such as..the 2JZ? Paul the owner of this Saturn has spent years of his life turning this Saturn Sky into an absolute rocket ship. So let's see if the hard work paid off.

The way the hardtop molds/blends into the spoiler looks really sick
Meant to be
I concur.
yeah im blown away by how cool this car is.
Yeah, it's almost like the Z top hard top for 986 Porsche boxters
Well the top was such a pain to put down originally, I suppose this solves that.
Yess!!! Such a cool car for its time. Doesn’t get the credit it deserves for Saturn to give it a go
"How's come the first time I drive a car, it's never stock." You've done this to yourself good sir! 😂
The Temu C6 Corvette
I LOL'd
....with a 6 cylinder (2jz) engine. Your comment makes zero sense...👎
@@boosted2.4_skylook at it. Tell me it doesn’t look like a Chinese knockoff corvette
@@RockinTheDub I've got a 500 hp 2008 Sky...
I can affirm that it is a tiny Vette 🏁
@@boosted2.4_sky well 103 people understood the joke so purely based on common sense your comment is the one that makes zero sense.
Intro music Goes Crazy
Underground Sound by Joey Valence & Brae they tuff
I was like when is this going to end had skipped to the video
@@b_3725love those guys they are the closest we'll ever get to a modern day version of the Beastie Boys
@@b_3725 Real Beastie Boys sound, vibe and quality!! Thanks for the info!
@@james10739 I'm sure your friends love having you over 😘
700hp this car should be a rocket ship.
Honestly can’t believe how well this thing drove. Thoughts?
I have a Solstice GXP I’m motor swapping. With a little work they are a blast
They're supposed to be a blast to drive! My aunt had one. Sky redline. I never drove it but my cousin said it was a a lot of fun!!
I really love this build. Always wanted to put a Buick 3800 in one of those cars
This is a swap I've been wanting to see for a long time! I love that chassis, all it needed was power
@@harkin3684 the 2.0 turbo that comes in it makes more power
Building a solstice GXP now. LS swap for mine
I'm going 1jz
Yeeeeahhhh don't let em die fellas!
sick
You're really just doing more than you need to... the Ecotec 4 cylinder makes as much power with a turbocharger as that V8 ever will...
@@boosted2.4_sky LSA is supercharged
I love this! A few years ago a local dealership had 2x pristine Solstice GXP's in the showroom, Red and Yellow. Fell in love with that platform ever since.
For some reason I have the urge to build a Saturn now, wtf have you done to me.
The car has been around for a long time.. it's good to see that car still running and still in good shape good review. 👍🏽🏁
FORMULA Drift back in 2009 had a LS Swapped one. Awesome.
Yep saw it at Atlanta drift
Nice intro music choice! I just saw Joey Valance in Utah
Thanks man! Only song I could use for copyright - but their stuff slaps.
Dude i was looking at this car recently, and you drop this! It's turning into one of my favorite American cars.
Theres quite a few Solstice GXPs for cheap, its the factory hard top ones that are insanely expensive. Think they only ended up making like 1,000 of em, and they're super clean.
Always liked the Sky it looks great with that hard top
I seen this car in Florida a few years ago at the Bradenton Drag Strip!!!! This specific car started my love for the SKY!!!
This was my first dream car back when I was still small enough to fit in one. It's crazy how all these years later, it's still such a great looking car.
Day 1,582 of me trying to get my 1996 Mystic Cobra in your hands to review.
Is it interesting beyond the paint?
@@thetruthwithin1 Very, I've been building it since 2009.
@@thetruthwithin1no
Where you located?

Adam LZ LS Swapped his Moms Solstice you need that car in your life !!!!!!!
I have videos of this car from a few years ago at IDLS Winterfest in FL. The 2 step on this car is INSANELY loud! Every time the car would pop you could feel it in your chest. It’s an amazing machine for sure.
User to be someone in Europe who drifted a 2JZ Opel GT and it always looks scary as f*** but that looks so much fun. I'm sure a lot of work went into developing how the power is delivered and put down, great job zzp!
I just seen this car run it at the drag strip last weekend, surprised the hell out to me…it’s badass!
I like how you can clearly see the opel design
Probably your best opening david!!!
I see a DF Goblin in the background! Hoping for a review on that soon! 🤙
That’s the owner of the Sky’s “other ride”
This is absolutely beautiful. I feel like the time was spent well to research and really mate all the things together. Love the body work and the small details added around the car. This is a LOOKER for sure.
Dude I have pics of this car at grid life Atlanta years ago! Sick ass car
SO SICK! I love it
Damn that intro went hard! Great work as always!
I felt like breaking on that new intro. Dude. Cool. This car is sick. I always wondered why these cars didn't develop in the tuner community. And it's twin the solstice. Nice. ❤❤😮💪👌😎
It's rare I see a video and think that I need to see it. However, this one could not go without being watched
My dad has been telling me for years that he wants to get one of these. I really think he should just do it.
Things are kinda sick ngl
Hard 🔥🔥
Man I love your videos. That music in the beginning was such a breath of fresh air from the typical car edit shit most everyone uses.. Loved it
Toss my like at Paul for this one! Very cool seeing this car evolve over the years!
Nice video altough i was waiting for David to rip it like the old mk4 supra videos from texas where he was giving them the beans.
I was 100% throttle. The car is just that well setup, and the gearing is long enough to send you into space.
underrated car for sure
You always know when David likes a car by how much time he puts into the intro
My mom had a manual sky and even stock it got tons of head turns.
Bro finds wild cars, always love it
Amazing!
That’s a true thing abt Saturn owners. My sis had a first get SL2 and got into a wreck next thing she bought was a second gen SL2. She still wishes she could have her second gen to this day even tho she’s in a Lexus es now
I love these cars. I want to ls7 swap one like Hot Rodder magazine did. It's so cool gm designed it specifically for an ls swap!
Again and again! Hello from Romania! Here it came first!
I didn’t watch it yet just the intro and that is the coolest looking sky I have ever seen
This is why I come here for videos like this, great video, such a cool build
Hell yea!!! Awesome seeing Paul's car on here.
A none clickbait title, nice one
That’s both hilarious and terrifying. That has to be a riot to drive
I like how this edit was done. Nice transitions between shots and which were synced to the rythm.
I bought my sky redline back in 2006 and took delivery in April of that year. It was actually the first in the blue stone color, it wasn't originally available but they put a note on the order that should it come available to paint it that color. I still remember getting the phone call from the Delaware factory saying, "Hey, we decided to do that Blue Stone color, do you still want it? It will actually be the first."
Fast forward 190k miles and 12 years and I decided to LS swap it. Built a supercharged LS3 motor and swapped to a TR6060 trans, which turned this thing into a beast ... but I can't drive it on the street right now because I got scammed by Norm's Fiberglass. That hardtop you have on the vehicle was made by Norm, who I paid in full back in 2018 for the full body kit. He never delivered, so my sky has been sitting without a trunk and roof since then. :(
ive been waiting for this for so long! paul made such a killer car.
That’s freaking clean. From the aesthetics of the looks and sounds, to the engine and transmission. Good stuff 🤙🏻
Seen this car over the years around Clearwater and Tampa. Thing is sick!
I drove a saturn sky once as a valet. This was a tiny car designed for shorter people. I'm 6'3 and I could barely fit in the car. The 30 second drive was painful and I struggled to even enter or exit the vehicle.
What a badass little Saturn Supra Mustang
So cool! I've always thought those would have been cool with a hard top and bigger engine. Love the build. Such a sweet ride.
Awesome car built by an awesome dude! Paul really went through the paces with this thing! I remember when he bought the car. It has come so far! Great presentation. The car and Paul deserve the notice. Good job sir!
Had to watch that intro twice. Best one yet 👌
Never thought I’d say this but I love this Saturn Sky. Makes me wonder if an RB would fit in one.
I was always in love with the Saturn Sky Red Line when they came out. I ended up with a G35 instead, which I loved for 10 years. So I never got a Saturn Sky, but i still love the look, and I always thought it looked like a baby corvette. This thing is amazing.
My problem with the sky and solstice was the foot well. The pedal box is hella SMALL. I had trouble pulling one into the shop with boots on. Had to jam my foot sideways to fit in there 😂 clutching was a chore lol
I really liked the b-roll intro David, good start for the video.
Love the JVB intro song!
Keep this car underrated and away from the stance/drifters
If I remember correctly their was a saturn sky that was used as a drift car. When I played dirt 3 that was the only car I used lol
Naw folk,let whoever get'em and show'em some luv! Don't say restrict a certain style,not good for the culture.
@@audiwankenobi361"culture" 😂
@darksu6947 At this point, you're the only one who understands something funny...
@@audiwankenobi361 I also speak sarcasm as a second language.......
This is sick. Ive always liked these
First off I think Paul did an excellent build.
Love the video.
I’ve always liked the sky/solstice.
I also really dig how it’s a gm car, with a Toyota engine, ford rear end and the tremec.
It seems like it shouldn’t mesh but it totally does
I remember seeing this car at winterfest a few years back won the two step competition too
I love my Sky. Keeping my 2.4 in it, but building the hell out of it for track purposes
It looks sick good work paul.
Let’s goooo!!! So hyped to see my man’s car get the attention it deserves 🤘🏻❤️🤘🏻❤️🤘🏻 see you at the tail with the “real racecar” 🙈
Had one, loved it, will have another very soon
Best intro yet!👌
GM chassis built to compete with a Miata paired with a Toyota engine, a Tremec manual gearbox, and a Ford rear end.
A true match made in hell. And not in a nightmarish way for us human beings. More in a Doomslayer type of "made in hell" type of manner.
I remember seeing this car at gridlife south back in 2018.. still got pics of it
Wow that’s a really cool build, I love the mustang parts that were used !
Best looking Saturn sky ever seen. Nice intro music too.
This is such a cool car! I had a Saturn Aura with the 3.6 V6 and it aged so well… it’s crazy that in like 10 years you’ll probably be covering battery swaps instead of engine swaps 😳
Not gonna happen. Electric isn't sustainable.
that thing looks really good and sounds great
Sweet build! The car looks great
These cars are underrated.
Hopefully, it stays that way 🙏
We don't need this thing getting hype taxed lol.
This car looks way too clean! love all these different builds!
love the stryling on these
never seen one of these done up and I love it
Badass intro! Love it
I just finished my sleeper 2jz single cab short bed Colorado with a AR5 and love it soo much the reactions are priceless
I always loved this car. I really love how low you sit. And the styling? Timeless and classy.
Nice
Joey valance and brae for the intro hell yes
I love my Saturns, I’ve got an m62 2.4 ion. Saturn life 💪💪
That's actually sick! It's like the American S2k...
The intro was perfect!
Need a video talking about the Pontiac "returning" page from Car & Driver.
It was a joke ad. There's a disclaimer at the bottom of it. It wasn't made by GM. it was Car and Driver.
I must admit, I did not like any of the Saturn models when they were around, but I like everything he has done with this Sky, especially the 2JZ swap.
I love my Redline!!! Nice to see it getting some love! Damn I wish I had that 2j though!
The Sky and the Solstice were SO COOL!
Saw that thing in Tampa a couple months ago…so dope
This thing is chef's kiss. 10/10. Beautiful
Seeing these under appreciated cars are a breath of fresh air
The intro was fresh.
