1 Year Update + 300zx Z32 Guide

[@doursen]

the fact it's actually been a year is absolutely insane, it feels like it's been longer now i think about it. i can't wait to see the full car done, it's gonna be crazy.

[@yellow_soup6722]

when you get it painted holy it will look SOOO good

[@joshuafyeah]

With the lmgt wheels would go insane

[@evanproud4090]

That Z deserves all the love it has, you treat it so well

[@screamerchaotix5182]

I honestly thought it would've been a bit less, but like you said the small things really do add up. Also, the flashbacks to the build take me right back to the winter when I first started watching. I'd have your playlists going out in the garage for as long as I could without freezing my 🍑 off.

[@joshuaevans3226]

Can't believe it's already been a year time sure is flying

[@Policecat22]

My favorite part about Saturdays. Love the videos man keep it up!

[@NoooNamee]

The video hasn’t even started and I’m exited already

[@werhujipnksdfujpa]

now that its started how do you feel

[@rceps4999]

ayo? pause

[@streetlegalbuilds7644]

Glad to see I’m not the only one who’s spent to much on a car and it still ends up slower than stock 😂😂

[@stevebuscemi3622]

Mike is THE driveway fabricator, respect

[@TheSaltyExplorer]

Can’t wait to see it painted. The mismatched body takes so much away from it but I know it’s all part of the process. Great work sir.

[@ColeMerks27]

I just picked up a 300zx z32 about a month ago, they really are timeless cars so many features that my newer car don’t even have

[@MoonPercs]

dude i got a 92 dodge stealth rt twin turbo, i have 2 bigger turbos and fuel injectors coming in. yesterday i was working on putting some coilkovers to slam the car and after getting my ass handed to me by the 32 year old seized hardware and only being able to install one coilover. the car wouldn't start. all i would hear was a click. i thought it was a bad battery so this morning i bought and installed the battery and still nothing. was feeling really down about it, but i did my research and found its a common issue that u cant stop, but it does have solution. i ordered the stuff i need and after seeing this video my motivation is back

[@LOVE-VIBES-X-PROJECT-CARS]

Good job covering all the info. Oh and yeah the chrome bezels are on the 99+ jdm Z32's. They come with hid's standard. Very very expensive for what is worth. Oh another fun fact this headlights are also on the Nissan R390

[@kingtaco536]

I cant wait to see this thing painted!

[@chrisyarber3352]

Its gonna look so good. Mike did a awesome job with jtm

[@therealjhall833]

I would love to see you build a Delsol from ground up !

[@whogotmycash]

Let’s go more mike!

[@Supersayinbulldog]

Recently tore my acl so I’ve done nothing but watch yt and this vid got me wanting to work my civic again🙏❤️

[@psementalist]

Hey PizzaMike I've been patiently waiting all morning long for your video. I love the 300zx

[@hunter3551]

I got a 2004 Volvo v70r manual I’ve had it for almost a year at this point. I’m a college student so driving between school and home I’ve put around 15k on it

[@waffle_chuter]

I would have guess around 10k not including wheels and body kit. But 14 still doesn’t seem crazy because having to buy so many little things adds up to like buying one big purchase like ecu or exhaust etc. Honestly I’m not the biggest fan of the 300zx model as a whole, but I absolutely love yours. Probably the best 300zx out there in my opinion, and it’s still not even painted yet! 🤘🏻

[@01dbiker]

Mike, you've done such an awesome job bringing the 300ZX back to life. So very impressive your skills are amazing. I totally enjoy watching each new episode. Keep up the great work! Also, say Hi 👋 to Franzy for me.

[@R0KU]

Can’t wait to see the end product. What an awesome and wholesome journey

[@jasonpetrich4141]

Dude there is no way it's been a yr already with the fairlady ? Wow time Flys now, you really do make the most of your time my guy!! Always makin moves

[@smallidaho1379]

Can’t believe it’s already been a year. It’s going to look sick once it’s painted.

[@theguyb6707]

hey prizza mike im loving all the videos you do man since day one you've been legit and super informative about cars and body work ect i just bought a 03 acura tl for cheap not the best condition but a great fixer up and cause you and the videos i seen from you doing the interior ect i legit made the acura tl interior like new lol but its (NASTY TAN COLOR) ikr everyones favorite and i took out hella dents lol thank you

[@icanseeyouallfromuphere]

, cool build Mike 👌🏻😀for your interior panels, and mouldings, I've come up with an idea for a classic car I'm after, same model my Mum and Dad had before I was born...and I've designed the full interior and decided I'm going to mould the whole dash board with Aluminium sheet and use the original wood trim inserts and clock surround, that'd look totally insane in your Z all the mouldings in brushed or polished alu sheet

[@gglazier_ofcl8692]

The fact I wake up and look for a Mike PRIZZA video every Wednesday and Saturday…

[@geonghuber2606]

J'aime la Z32, c'est une magnifique voiture, merci pour la présentation et les modifications faite sur ta Silvia 32

[@Kaptain_Kian]

Love that you've given that Z a second chance! My daily driver for the past 2 years was advertised as a parts car. It's an Alfa Romeo 147 Ducati Corse edition. needed a bumper, headlight and AC condenser after it had a small crash. It sat up for 2 years. I also replaced the timing belt, deleted swirl flaps, replaced boost pipes and fixed the EGR with a tooth brush and some oven cleaner 😅 Paid €1400 for the car, €600 in parts, then I found a set of Alfa GTA wheels on Crooober for €500. Italian wheels, sent from Japan, to Ireland 🤣 I've also fitted some BC racing coilovers to it for €1200. Did all the work in my driveway, I swear it's been the most fun and reliable car I've ever owned. It's like it is thankful for being saved. Thinking of a hybrid turbo as the next lil upgrade for it 🤌 Keep it up man, inspiring stuff 😎

[@asosa7100]

300ZX has been a unit 👌 build is coming along 💯

[@adamfarkasbdp]

holy shit I have been following you for more than 1,5 years? Time flies man....

[@joshuaboiii]

This man made me aprecciate cars the way they are. Thanks mike!

[@user-ds1nb9sg6n]

Cant wait to see the black Z project going

[@Ryoneftw]

Can't wait for you to paint it, it's going to look soooooo good.

[@bluecookies9857]

10/10 video Mikey 🤙🏻 be safe, have fun, an enjoy the ride

[@markbailey1911]

Mike your car is the total personification of you , and it's amazing dude. Love your channel and everything about the Z. I'm really keen to see how it looks in the end but man the journey has been so worth it. Well done mate Mark

[@Hunts_accord]

Me and you got our cars around the same time lol I just hit 1 year with the accord. Love the content man your doing great

[@Futurensen]

Bonus clip at the end made me nervous.. I want more 😂

[@michaelbrown2779]

I drive a 1999 Toyota Camry which I bought with 286,000kms (177,712M) last April so in a little over a year ive put almost 37,000kms (22,900M) on it as it now sits at 323,000kms or 200,702 Miles, Love your content, All the work I’ve done to my car I’ve logged in my notes with the Mileage and what was done, Thanks for your many tips keep up the great work

[@Lewuaptedama]

Just sending my regards! Regular viewer on saturdays!

[@SlipsExploits]

I was thinking probably 8k before the newer performance mods you did, id say I was decently close to be fair.

[@carolchia1001]

That sounds about right. lol Thought I could save some money by working on my own car and collecting parts from junkyards, but omg, definitely spent more in the last 2 years than the previous 13 combined taking to a shop. Don’t really know how that happened. Appreciate you being honest about your build number though!👍 P.s. Miss Fran adding some balance to the bro-heavy content, but I get it, sometimes you’ve gotta take a break😉

[@Metman2J]

My daily was in the shop for a while, but I just got it back around the beginning of June. I have put over 3000 miles on it since then.

[@andydhillon1977]

14:29 That is for the controls for the adjustable suspension.

[@gateaccess818]

soooo stoked for turbo swap on the Z!!!

[@HeartLessGem_]

The Z deserves boost! Been one of the best budget builds to date man 👌🏾🇦🇺

[@BalochistaniAviation]

I saw a turbo in the box I cant wait dor the next video!!! Also please dont part out the black 300zx its such a beoutifull car and rare one please dont take another one of the road Anyways i love your videos so much and it also got me into cars ( i have a celica)

[@SamTyler-zu7lc]

Man I can't believe it's been a year and it's come this far and man the money I didn't realize you spent so much but all makes sense though. Is a sick build though. An amazing job as always mike

[@chop_mane]

Going to be so good once it is turbo converted. 4 cylinder swaps into GT cars is sick. Reminds me of Castrol Toms GT500 Supra.

[@jasonpetrich4141]

A black shell on red or the pearl black on white would hit sooooo hard bet it's real nice

[@ethangiordano562]

Can't wait to see more on the black Z!

[@CasualVendetta]

As someone who moved to Tennessee from aurora Illinois, i gotta say im happy i left, no emissions and i can basically do what i want to my car

[@CasualVendetta]

Also loving the 300zx, im lookin into one myself at a neighbors, its in good condition, engines just dead

[@gateaccess818]

yes, the 99+ spec headlights have the chrome inserts and they have HID factory

[@Effect2o]

I miss the junkyard days!! Totally should do a From junk to Treasure series. Get a car from the junk yard, and get it up and going from only junkyard parts. That would be SO fun!!

[@chonou.v3]

this makes me feel better about my car 14k is crazy man at least it was a fun journey and u made most of that money from videos im guessing so that works out in ways

[@RafaelPerez-ow7mx]

Good job of buying and building a 300zx

[@TasteofBlood]

Im loving your 2+2, cant wait to hear it boosted. Just to clarify, some convertibles were the only ones that got the bone interior and the jdm 99 spec cars had optional hid headlights that came with the chrome inserts. They were available for sale for years until recently.. Nissan NLA'ed them.

[@PrizzaMike]

Great info!

[@Miraxzcle]

been enjoying your content.

[@Antiliv.]

Hell yeah more mike content, unrelated as hell but I found out about shit brown vert z32's again recently and I want one so bad

[@TasteofBlood]

Cocoa Bronze Metallic

[@Antiliv.]

@@TasteofBlood yeah I know the paint code, I just like calling it shit brown haha

[@TasteofBlood]

@@Antiliv. root beer turd metallic

[@ak-dudegitchel6977]

I'm dying to see Uncle Jeff's car running lol

[@aurimasmaldzius5345]

14:42 on the other side of the window washer fluid screen there is a smaller screen that indicates automatic variant modes: Power & Over Drive modes. There are cruise control indicators on one of those screens also

[@callsign_hoxton]

I bought my omega last year and I put 15k miles in it, now it has 155k on the dash but the bmw straight six is still going strong 😁

[@jakeroger1790]

a YEAR DANG man i been here since 20k subs good shit

[@pixelthec]

I have a 1990 JDM RHD 2+2 TT auto 14:36 Big screen is for washer fluid lights, HICAS, Anti-lock (ABS) system, cruise + cruise control indication, tail warning lights 14:41 Small screen is for A/T hold, Overdrive, A/T power. This is only for automatic cars afaik

[@PheezyYT]

Keep goin' ham!

[@dumcrapcat]

All those differences for a somewhat unusable backseat is crazy lol

[@differentgroove1]

Love this Z !!! Unique ride .

[@KingSSASBO]

Hi Prizza mike the clocks are an easy fix, just take it apart and re soldering the connectors on the board especially where the connection for the wire plug is should do. fixed plenty of subaru and nissan clocks that way as it is a common problem.

[@aknoob4391]

I know how it is. I’ve E34 M20B25. Haven’t done any performance stuff, haven’t done any huge visual difference. Just did sports interious, MTech 1 wheel, different smaller things inside as an options, some springs, wheels and maintanance, over the I’ve spent around 4K€. I think that sky is the limit for project/daily cars.

[@Jay991gt3]

Time to paint it!

[@spont24]

11:47 HID Xenon headlights were OEM but exclusive to Japan, Nissan still produced them and you could buy them off most Z/NIssan sites until they were discontinued a few years ago

[@deyara_]

Love to get actual prices. Great vid

[@deyara_]

And yes i commented great vid 2 mins into the vid. I know what im getting!

[@plodno9867]

I love you're video's man

[@TheeMaxDean]

Blows my mind it's been a year already 😂 great work man, I wonder if you ever thought you would be putting more than 10k into it when you bought it

[@emilherbestam3590]

Nice job man👌

[@Forest__Spirit]

Best z around. Once its ka-t it’ll be wild 😮‍💨

[@Fubbzie]

God brother your living my dream, keep it up love the content.

[@luckduck5031]

Non car people never understand how expensive actually molding your car costs

[@auscarlover7485]

Yeah those two gaps underneath the cluster are for lights, engine light, Hicas light, and other etc

[@PrizzaMike]

Good info!

[@nyxiph]

It has already been a year???? If someone would ask me for how long you have been building this I would have said like 3 months. Its just crazy how fast time flies by.

[@longjohn8735]

Heck yeah

[@gateaccess818]

@14:34 heated, non heat. angle adjuster. and then the other slot is for auto fold mirrors. 96-99 z's came with this.

[@PrizzaMike]

Ahhh folding mirrors! Good call!

[@dubtapes1529]

​@@PrizzaMikeOn my 91 Z TT that spot is for adjustable suspension dampening switch... two settings: comfort and sport. It adjusts the actuators on top of the shocks (similar to EDFC)... mine works well. Most ditch that for overall better coilover suspension and factory OEM adjustable shocks are unattainium or wayyy too expensive.

[@vincentlevesque30]

You could change the title to « basic 300ZX guide » and would help a lot the community!

[@josephsamsor1698]

I have a bmw 335d. It’s tuned but otherwise just maintenance. It’ll be one year that I’ve been driving it in about a week, but I was also on vacation for a month and put a lot of miles on my motorcycle. Still comes out to about 30k miles in one year.

[@otkrivenje0]

I'm following your channel for the past two years, maybe more, idk. I'm a mechanic. And to be honest,, if i were able to put a 300zx in my country on the road for 14k$, i would do it no matter how long would it take. They are expensive and rare AF, especially in Croatia(my country). Just keep on going

[@adrianncharles436]

I want to see the new Z build but please keep it original bring it back to glory and a full set of rim not miss match lol like how you drift guys like it. Great content as always man keep up the positive energy.. 💨💨💨 and let’s see that turbo install on the OG Z 💨

[@DingDongDrift]

i stopped keeping track because the number got too big. it's better to not track how much you spend lol.

[@PrizzaMike]

Yaaaa this was my first time adding it up 😬 I thought I was below 10k lol

[@DingDongDrift]

@@PrizzaMike it's never below 10k haha

[@TheCarDemotic]

$14,000 sounds like more than I would have thought. Then I add up my project, and I realize you’ve gotten way more done with the money you’ve spent haha. Cars are expensive

[@letpigsfly]

On my daily driver I put about 9000 miles a year. We do less miles in the UK. My fun cars I only put about 1000 miles on each year.

[@5thgenZLE]

Very respectfully, I thought the point of moding a older car of this generation was for saving money, at 14k plus body kit and wheels/tires, let's call it 17k. You can get some really cool cars for not much more. Even tuner type cars. V8 muscle cars for sure. Wrx type stuff. This guy is sooo good with a wrench he has saved himself a ton of money vs paying someone to do all this work. 17k kinda surprised me.

[@shawnfreebairn4464]

First off I love the vids look forward to them when you drop them , question what app do you use to track you maintenance and when you get fuel for your vehicles

[@Gemtii]

16:50 in the video, you can hear that poor flat spot on the wheel😅😂

ive been watching you since the 240 tbone, how the fuck have i only just now subscribed???

[@JackPecker911]

That is a pretty big investment, but at the same time this car has come a long way since you bought it

[@j05h.m]

The Z has now been added to GTA with the latest update, but sadly no bomex looking options :(

[@asosa7100]

14:43 that is a screen too I have a early model Z (1990)

[@8Bitplus]

Im about 14-15 into my vert. But mine has way less mods and stock ecu so i think you did well!
