How much would this job runs you? Parts wise

What about Alignment?

Great Vid! And special Kudos for using a Camera Tripod unlike so many that try to hold the Cam and do the work (Shaky Cam LOL)

You are a cool dude.

Stop using ‘cave-man’ numbers. The world’s gone metric now! 😂

Will c7 Zo6 brakes and rotors work on a base model c6 ??

Man I’ve been seeing more and more people not like a 350 ls swap and I’m bummed cause that’s my dream car. Always wanted a 350z for the looks but not enough power for me so I wanted to ls swap. Want something I can drift but also beat a hellcat while in my dream body, but sounds like I should find a new dream car :(

Great video! I contemplated this swap for some time . My question remains, is it really such a huge improvement in Braking to justify the considerable cost? I compare the braking of my C6 Z51 to previous cars ( like a 930 Porsche and a Mercedes 450 SEL 427) I don’t race anymore and would like to find some concrete braking distance 60 mph to Zero Comparing the Z51 system to the Z06 Set up to see if the investment is justified, other than looks.

I just used 15mm spacers all around so I could use my stock base wheels. I didn't want to replace the studs with extended ones but if you go that route you only need 8mm spacers.

That’s great ! 👍 Now do the rears and don’t forget to measure how much the callipers stick out. Cheers from Sydney Australia ✌

Perfect tutorial!

Is it difficult to bleed the brake lines or can you make a quick video and then?

You'd be better off following the NHRA specifications (SCCA is almost identical). The upper mount should be below the shoulders - not the same height. You want equal pressure on the shoulder as on the lap belt on the hips. Your overly worried about compressing the spin - but you can stretch it also. NHRA regulations are written in blood. For your example: a) the seatbelts are way too loose. b) the top of the seat is not supporting the belt. If the belt was tight, it should be a straight shot from your shoulders to the mount. You will not compress the back because your lap belt is putting the same forces on your body (same direction.

I completely understand you my brother 🍻

I swear, the roll on slow cars is the best part about them to me, makes it feel like you're really doing something lol

Forsure a beautiful car 🗣️

Great video and explanation! Subscribed. I have one question though. If you have the Z51 model with the slotted rotors, can you just replace the calipers to the larger Z06 size? I already have the wide body conversation with the Z06 size tires.

I like dual springs because it's easier to deal with tuning than a progressive spring

Came down on the shoulder, I've done that as was lucky I didn't break anything, but it still hurt, had bruised ribs and hip for about 3 weeks

I was a beginner once

Beginner mistake, stuff happens.

Some people just can't fall

I don’t think you should be riding bud lol

Reminds me of trevorton pa coal county. I miss it.

Beautiful knowledge. I love it. Easy sub.

Learn something new everyday👌

Watching this video in 2022 and hearing you say 15k made me cry. Lol I can’t even get the swap done now a days with 15k. So much more expensive today.

Where did you find your zo6 brakes and everything? I can’t find them anywhere

Just a giraffe in the background

You can tell it worked because it took the skin right off the knuckles!!! Friggn Classic! 😂😂😂

Tip: you can enter dimensions in inches and it'll convert to metric for you. For instance, type in 4.75" (with the quote to indicate inches) and it'll immediately convert it to 120.65mm for you. (Just a nice little feature that can save some time.)

Have you shared the STL or Fusion model for the spacers anywhere?

COTA should be a fun time!

Just saying, thay are 21mm bolt 🔩 heads size not bolt size

Which size wheels would I need for a 05´ C6 Basemodel to fit aZO6 brakes?

no burnouts tho

misss your vids

so sick

where are the new vids

I saw your handle, "I used to be cool" on a minivan.

Okay, I give up: WHERE did you find 15mm bolt-on spacers? The only ones I've found are priced as though they are made of platinum. I've been running 20mm for months now, and I'd rather not have the tires digging into the fenders at an upcoming HPDE.

Hey I used to be cool, I have a 2004 350Z that the motor is about to go and I have some money I just inherited that is burning a hole in my pocket,would you be interested in building another one of these? Ill pay you whatever you need to do it the way you want to and then some and pay you well enough you can take your time and do it exceptionally like you did yours .i don’t know if you do this for a living or if you’ll ever do it again but I am very interested in getting it done .i live in southern middle Tennessee the car is a 2004 automatic it’s the same silver color as yours ,the only problems with the car rite now is no power steering and massive oil consumption and no power please let me know something ASAP thank you

Where did you buy your wheel spacers from

Where did you get your spacers from

What size spacers did you use and where can I buy set

Outstanding video, I've been thinking about this swap for quite a while on my 2006. Thanks for doing all of the work to make it easy for us!

What wheels are those on the z at 1:48?
