$13,000 Custom 350Z vs. $33,000 Custom 350Z | HiLow

$13,000 Turbo 350Z built with CHEAP parts vs. $33,000 twin-turbo 350Z built with EXPENSIVE parts. Does more expensive mean more better? We’re gonna find out once and for all.
Donut bought two identical Nissan 350z’s, and for the past few weeks have been modifying them to be FUN, daily drivers that you can take to the track.
Team Low (Nolan Sykes & Aaron Parker) got a bunch of really cheap parts and in the end got a slammed turbo z that shoots flames all for around $13,000.
Team Hi (James Pumphrey & Zach Jobe) on the other hand, got a bunch of really nice expensive stuff totaling an astounding $33,000.
Then we tested them to see which components are actually worth spending the money on. We’re gonna break down the cost of building these two cars, test them head to head on track, and decide which is better.
Low Car got a set of eBay coilovers of unknown origin, and Hi Car was treated to a set of KW V3s.
Next, we installed wheels and tires. Hi Car got some sick Advan RGIII’s wrapped in Bridgestone RE71s. Meanwhile on the Low Car, We bought some XXR 527s, and decided to run Federal RS-RR tires. In the end, both cars were able to achieve supercar-level braking distance by switching to super sticky rubber.
Nolan and Aaron installed more aggressive brake pads, steel braided brake lines, flushed and replaced the brake fluid, and bled the lines. Over on Hi Car, Zach and James replaced the car’s entire braking system with a 6 piston, 13 brake kit from Wilwood.
After that we went inside our Zs, installing racing seats. The Hi Car got two Sparco QRT-R seats, a Greddy steering wheel, and a hub to make it removable. Lo Car received some Corbeau DFXs racing seats.
Next, both cars were fitted with modified differentials to make sick skids easier. Hi Car got a very trick Kaaz 2-way differential. Zach spent a lot of time adjusting the spacing, making sure it was perfect. Over on Lo Car we took a different route. Instead of installing a new differential, we welded ours together!
After making a bunch of performance upgrades, it was time to alter the looks of our beloved Zs. Team Low decided to give Lo Car some plastidip.
Over on team Hi, they took their car to a professional vinyl shop.
Finally, we gave the Donut Zs some BOOST! Hi car got a Jim Wolf twin turbo setup that made it sound like a Baby GTR. And the low car got a single turbo kit by way of eBay.

Love the series. Keep it up. Thought: Maybe conclude by doing a piece by piece summary on what worked/recommend instead of the “pick one or the other” choice? Or maybe do a vs matchup where each team is given a budget to build the ultimate daily for a variety of competitions (1/4, drift, track, mpg, etc?

Nah, it makes good sense to still have a spread but not break the bank on either the hi or low cars. It is relatable because many people could still afford either.

Cheap baseline vs expensive baseline End up with roughly the same overall spend Cheap car: $5000 initial buy with $30,000 in parts Expensive car: $25,000 initial buy with $10,000 in parts Both spending about $35,000 overall Just as an example

2011 Ford Fiesta Hi/Low is what I’d LOVE to see. Just because it’s my personal car and I find it almost impossible to find parts to make it amazing. (Just an opinion)

[@thatft-86kid63]

James: "I can't afford one!" Also James: "For HiLow I make $4,000,000 an episode."

Sarcasm? Whats that taste like?

[@jdewitt]

Great series guy, really fun to watch. I'd love to see your list for the "mid-car" build. What low parts would you put on and what hi parts were worth it? What would be your perfect combo?

[@Træfisk]

lo car with the kw's would be perfect.

[@dankhill2033]

@@Træfisk I agree that's be awesome

[@Chocolate_dragon]

Mid car without the high end seats. Wheels. High dollar brakes And wrap. That's what 10k less?

[@likeaboss11123]

By mid I think he means mid range parts, so not high end but also not cheap lol not a mix of low and high

[@jdewitt]

@@likeaboss11123 I was thinking of a pure mix of high and low, but yeah, I kind of wish we could see what mid range price mods would be like. For example, what if low car had gotten a nicer single turbo kit? They went pretty bottom end and the install was a nightmare. Would the performance be worth it?

My choices for next series: - Miata - RX-8 - Civic Si - S2000 - Old muscle/pony cars (mustang/Camaro) - WRX - BMW 3 Series - solstice/Saturn sky

[@stoweboarder720]

Would love to see the E9x 3 series. There are plenty of ways to go ultra premium or ebay special on them.

No Nissan skyline? Im disappointed.

Lol Civic gtfo

[@etravix]

Cool comparison. My 05 350Z is just above low car price. But no turbo, just decent suspension mods. After all the real fun in driving a Z is its handling. Thanks for sharing.

[@alexandros-charischari6113]

I'd like to see this series doing a rally car project

[@elvis1745]

Would definitely like to see how much it costs to make hi/low cars with the only goal for them to kill it on the rally track

[@RichHomiePanda]

I'd like to see either a Honda Civic HiLow or something out there like a Ford Mustang Or even a Miata

[@DeskyFanny]

or a Honda S2000

[@YouKnow257]

Why not a pair of old jeeps?

[@patrickmurray8031]

Yes, the ubiquitous Civic, and the mustang and Miata are great choices as well. Also, I think anything from the best cars under 10k video would be good

[@8.2deck]

Fox body street/strip cars would be cool

[@redeyedfreaks]

That would be perfect. I'm down to watch all three.

[@pepijno3]

I'd love to see a 92' - 95' civic HiLow season!!! other suggestions would be a vw golf mk 4 or a bmw e36. regardless of the car, I love the first season and the whole idea of the series

[@LMDF2000]

HiLow on a mk4 gti would be interesting to say the least... (meant that on a good way)

I’d really like to see a Golf GTI HiLow season so James can get his VW fix

[@maco34576]

he sent his golf to the shop, he posted on IG! im pyched to see how that comes out

[@joshuarhamey1127]

Or the rabbit 2.5 because then we get to see them put a turbo on the i5

[@connorcook5769]

I’d like to see an E30 or E36 bmw in the next series. Great job guys.

I second that, they both have so many mods by now that they would both make great candidates.

[@pablosalinas4775]

Ákos B my guess is labor work...but idk if they added it for the rest of the mods

[@charliemcmillan4230]

All the numbers added up correctly. My guess is they redid the graphic of the money for the last mod going up to keep the aesthetic of them both rising in cost. Or it’s just a mistake, idk

Idk but it looks weird they wrote FREE and adding 1k😂😂😂

Go with an interesting car, something w/o a sporty attitude and try to see where can you take it. I would do either a E46 / E36 BMW (not M!) or a no-glory plain Honda Civic (Again, not SI or TR) or even better - an old Nissan Versa

So awesome to see that you guys came to New Mexico to test HiLow. We love you guys out here and would love to see you again in the future!

Civic is boring now :D Cuz it's overused car everywhere. I think GT86 would be interesting :)

@@Litassa that would very interesting but still being above 15k per vehicle + mods that would be equivalent to STI money territory. It just doesn't seem practical. But you're right the Honda thing does seem over done

[@ricardoruiz58]

Truthfully, I would love to see a Hi-Low with miatas. They're cheap cars and yea they're slow but that's a car a lot of people buy to beat on or even learn stick shift. Regardless, I think itll be fun to watch. I think team hi was better, but for that price, team low won imo........I'm also broke so if anything thatd be the long term route I'd take🥺🥴

Agreed Miata's and mo cheap is mo betta

i don't think james and nolan would fit in a miata well, im 6'1" and i CAN NOT fit in one with the seat all the way back it feels like a go kart.

Don't forget that's just the price of parts not labor. That high car would be insanely expensive for a non mechanic to build

You should do a series where you see how much money it takes a non special car like an e36 to be as quick as an e36 m3.

[@QuattroZack1]

I like that idea. Would prove if the M badge is really worth all that extra $$ or if you can bring a regular e36 up to par for less $$

[@lunakai_360]

E36 m3 us or euro tho? cuz euro is insane and us got shafted. (I know because I own one) :(

I'm pretty sure Car Throttle did that exact thing... but with a diesel 3-series wagon against a stock M3. Interesting videos to say the least.

Or how they mentioned the hi-car was cheap porsche money, they should test it against a stock porsche of the same cost on the track

Loved The Series! Go off-roaders for next season. Suzuki Jimny would be a good pick I think

Or Jeeps! Off-road seems like the obvious and best choice, you can buy a Wrangler from the mid 2000s, they're cheap and probably have the most customization market

@@Robert-pn1vo I guess speaking as someone who lives in Greece my mind didn't really go there, since jeeps usually have 2.0L+ engines... In Greece those get extremely expensive. I now realise that ain't a factor in the US soooo, yeah. Plus... Jimnys are cute and fun.
