[@michaeljames1337]

Hey guys

[@michaeljames1337]

You reckon yous would do a Mitsubishi GTO project

[@garethlloyd1815]

the game

[@dylanfield5290]

Mighty Car Mods legends

[@HarryTwatter]

Mcm and skid factory are the new force on KZbin automotive videos

[@martinss13]

Wesley Green the new? Hmmmm, they like always have been there.

[@joshmocarski4778]

They aren't new but always have been the best! I'd love to meet them in person one day. Love to take them for a rip in the cheap vw builds I have going

[@R0FLC4T5]

Yeah if you want new force look at BoostedBoiz and the like lol. They're making 1000hp Hondas for fun and MCM wasn't even making that on sponsorships 😶😶😶

[@WilbanksUSMC]

love it

[@upurkilt7246]

Project binki...... that is all

[@wesb5553]

Moog, I know its hard to release a lot of the music you produce for the show but I have to say, this latest soundtrack for the Fairlady build has been outstanding and I really hope you release full songs. Keep it up gents!

[@AetherLemmie]

MCMix Tracks!

[@bobbob3630]

Wes B I like the one that goes wub wub

[@JordyValentine]

Nothing beats the 2 Sexy anthem haha

[@FerrowTheFox]

Yes! I've been commenting under like every video since the Mira build about the awesome music. Moog puts so much heart and effort into them, so I really hope we see a release of all the outstanding background tracks currently not available.

[@xParoxysm]

Will the d'n'b intro track be released? That one is mad.

[@mikeycawley]

The music of this series has been insanely good.

[@mightycarmods]

Mikey Cawley Thanks heaps mate. We make it all ourselves and try and put as much effort into the films as we do making the cars. Thanks for kind words!

[@zintaxza7555]

Whats the song at 4:50 ? Been wondering since last episode

[@luis1633]

I've been trying to figure out the name of the song on the beginning of the video for the past 5 episodes... I've commented in every video and still nothing

[@Kozo_Hoshino_]

me too!! i hope they tell us.

[@markandisobel]

no it has not

[@gazerzgarage9487]

That bit where it doesn’t start, I just got my 240 running after a year. It sucks, but man when you get it to go it feels like you’re on top of the world. Absolutely high on life, I was smiling all day long. Just keep at it until you’re done.

[@PedalExperiments]

"You can go 'zoom zoom' straight into the bin!" 😂

[@chrisgee3845]

ha just wrote exactly the same thing!

[@hamstersong123]

I've heard it with Moog's voice before I even watched the video :D

[@Financmajster]

just like all the apex seals

[@Vvewa]

Then I got an advertisement for mazda in the the video break

[@boggeshzahim3713]

GO WATCH THE VIDEO FIRST MY DUDE

[@BarryMahcockiner]

D'aww. I almost thought Moog was gonna cry towards the end. Must be an amazing feeling to see a forever-car you truly love come such a long way with so little drama (aside from the whole engine removal thing.)

[@terminalpsychosis8022]

This old classic is one of my fav builds. Just the meticulous attention to detail. Can tell you guys really love this car. The junkyard beaters are fun too, fast n dirty, but this here, is a work of art.

[@TechShowdown]

Great to see that RB26 finally start, this series has been awesome!

[@ravenc703]

Tech Showdown whoa, fancy seeing you here ;)

[@JoeJoeMoto]

WAIT WAIT WAIT!! We never got to hear what Marty wanted to do!! Awesome job though team, well done!

[@MRTuning704]

Video quality goals Quality content 👌🏽🔥

[@WSO83]

I was going to mention how awesome the music has been throughout the S30 build. But loads of great people have the same idea =D Truly awesome content. Great people. Pure automotive awesomeness blended with a brilliant sound track! Love MCM so much.

[@sarcastomimic2683]

Doesn't Moog produce all their soundtracks?

[@Subdubbin]

he does.

[@scottmahoney4658]

I know right Moog makes some seriously good music. Hope he releases it on iTunes or something

[@max_x2]

There's a lot of music on their website

[@irishwristwatch2487]

Scott Mahoney some of it is on iTunes/GooglePlay

[@whatthejohnnys]

Literally got teary at the moment the car started up. So smooth and sounds great. You guys are the champs.

[@jberkhimer]

Love that Al got sucked into the MCM universe. Great guy, wealth of knowledge, and just a laid back individual. I get the sense that when they invite him to do stuff he just says "Yea, I guess I can come help." He has his own mini series now, his own shop, and he still finds time to help the guys. That's awesome.

[@larryfly3615]

Was about to go to sleep, but saw this notification so I did what any normal person would do! Cheers mate 👌

[@ottonajera1216]

@MCM i love your guys videos I’ve been keeping up with this 240z build im 16 years old from the US and have a 1985 Toyota Celica Supra i have almost all the parts for the engine and just wanted to let you know that you guys are my inspiration!!

[@BrendenPragasam]

19:20 For non-Australians, "Gumtree" is basically Craigslist for the people Down Under. You're welcome

[@WSO83]

We got Gumtree in the UK aswell=D great website

[@GrimYak]

Brenden Pragasam im not australian but i buy at gumtree for my fords that are Australian designed. I have a ford Everest and a ford escape ZD.

[@abshassan]

I think this is one of the greatest things, mates upon mates, just hanging out and building a car together. The range of emotions from pure frustration and annoyance due to the car not starting, then utter relief and happiness when the RB turns over and fires up. Absolute legendary boys.

[@jimothyus]

20:39 will we ever find out what marty thinks they should do or will he forever be rudely interrupted??? find out in the next episode of 240Z - RB26 Engine Conversionnnnn

[@trainin2bBIG]

YESSSSS can he pls reply to this

[@realluzkillingzombeis3668]

safedanger clear

[@dcrafty427]

Sitting in my living room... In northern California... On the couch... Watching on the TV... It's 1130 at night... After watching you all go through building this I even got the goose bumps from it starting!!!! Congrats guys!!!! Can't wait to see you driving it in the videos!

[@wlehtola]

Yay. Fricken dig watching Al and Benny in action. You two aren't half bad either

[@ThomasThorr]

when moog was choking up after it started... you could just tell how much time, sweat and passion these boys put into the car and how much it meant for moog to get it going. awesome guys.

[@TheDrunkardHu]

Please know, Yoda... You're a god, and all of your work in these projects is greatly appreciated, and entertaining!! Keep up the great work, guys!

[@MrNodnarb123]

Seeing Moog jump almost a foot in the air and the BIGGEST grins hitting your faces made me tear up. Truely a pure automotive accomplishment. Beautiful.

[@JamesMelzer999]

How cool would it be to get a video on the status on all of the builds MCMs has done! If the car has been sold maybe get an update from the new owners. Would be a rad video.

[@dragonbrownies517]

One of the kids woke up to me watching this and stayed up until the Z started. Not sure who was more happy, me or her. Thanks for making my kids' day!

[@SIRICKO]

All I have to say is BEAUTIFUL.

[@brb2jndett254]

SI RICKO the car or turbo yoda?

[@SIRICKO]

Both lol

[@neilbusante5211]

Definitely both

[@OffensiveJestr]

No matter how many times I've worked on engines or did a swap, or watched people do a swap, to see your creation come alive is so fucking magical. AWESOME!

[@MichaelBacon212]

If it's meant to drop panties then don't let Marty drive it because he might find another Cheryl. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@garystinten9339]

Michael Bacon Cheryl 2.0

[@nemesisslr]

Not her again.

[@niclassunde3941]

If it weren't for the emojies, I would have liked the comment.

[@GhostRyderFPV]

Still wouldn't be an issue... Cheryl didn't wear any.

[@slin3232]

isn't Cheryl Moog's ex?

[@CryMoar_]

The best non PC friendly funny genuine non pretentious KZbin automotive channel of all time. Never give up boys. You’re gonna be so big.

[@digitalrailroader]

17:53 the Fairlady GT-R LIVES!!!

[@Moparornocar74]

I almost shed a tear when that RB finally lit. You guys do such an amazing job of engaging us viewers, it feels like we're living this build with you. MCM FOR LIFE!

[@JDM_DAISUKI]

#pure

[@JDM_DAISUKI]

New music is off the chain!!

[@cnl1213]

Adam and Eve pre-snake.

[@CowboyBleepBlop]

You guys have been much of my inspiration for continuing to work on my projects. Been on and off the fence about selling my s13 because of the frustration and struggles and no mates to help me. Seeing you get emotional at the end their got me a bit choked up too. I think I'm gonna finish my car and do all the things I wanted to do with it. Thank you guys, been a crazy 8 years I've been watching!

[@NickPDX22]

Love all you guys do, but this is my most anticipated build you guys have done yet! Can’t wait for the *Mad skids*

[@legallyskids582]

This series has brought pure automotive passion out of everyone and the car community appreciates it

[@OvAeons]

feel like the car should be called Skylady or something..

[@brian_sipe]

Yeah, FairLine doesn't really work as well does it? I was thinking, Shiroi Majo, if that's translated correctly that should be moon-speak for White Witch, but I'm putting my faith in Google on that one...

[@NeXMaX]

Skylady Z GT-R

[@NorthernChev]

Thanks for the loud music playing over the first-start... Could barely hear the engine. That was THE most important moment in this entire series. And we (mostly) missed out on it.

[@wrathofbod]

this is going to be a BEAST, love it. next i think you need to do a Datsun 72 Hakosuka GTR

[@ericlewandowskivlogs]

I remember watching you guys from Marty's driveway doing what you could with your shadetree setup. Your channel has easily turned into one of the best car shows out there, including anything you can find a TV also(and thanks for not leaving youtube like some other guys have, ahem RK). This car is incredible. And the guys you get to help out on your builds add so much to the show as well. Thank You MCM!

[@MarkGibbons]

I love thGlat they're frequent and this is my favourite series you've ever done but there's so little content in these videos. They fell 2-3 minutes long (so you're obviously making great content) but it feels like nothing has happened. I watched the whole twenty minutes and I feel like I saw a couple seconds of the end of a break kit and a guy talk about a wire that wasn't shown. Boom, twenty minutes. More details!

[@MarkGibbons]

Wow I butchered this. That* feel* and I apologize for the numerous grammar issues.

[@JohnCasale]

There was some good tech content, but you're right. I wish they talked about which wire was place wrong, and why it caused the car to not start!

[@kavinskysmith4094]

true but have you never heard of a guy called Tavarish lol hi I'm tavarish, this is thing A you already know about, here's how I saved $$$$$ oh this is how much this $$$$$, trust me son, while this aint DIY, its a damn sight better than that crap! like good christ clickbaiting motor moron doesnt even begin to cover that guy lol

[@Whackfear]

Mates! I just got my MCM book and I have to say, the quality of it is amazing. One of the corners got a bit knackered in transit, but that's because German postal services are mostly braindead. I'm looking forward to reading through it in one go. And then again. And Again.

[@buddhamack1491]

Guys please enter the Shitbox Rally one year. It raises money for charity and it would be so much fun to see you guys trying to complete it. Or compete in your own version and set yourself some cheap car challenges.

[@heartbreakr3191]

Buddha Mack I don't think this would meet the 1000 aud limit of the shit box rally

[@buddhamack1491]

LOL clearly didn't mean this car. Would be very interested to know what this car would cost to build though, especially if someone was paying for all the labor costs they've put into it.

[@Tony-112]

Buddha Mack good idea

[@mattfisher4256]

Kudos to Dave, wiring the whole car with only 1 minor mistake. Well done and what a legend

[@wasabicars]

Looking forward to more.

[@TheBigboi16]

WasabiCars hey cool to see you here

[@wasabicars]

Couldn't miss this build. I do prefer bog stock cars, but I'm really, REALLY enjoying this one. :)

[@Andrewlang90]

No BS, had a small tear in my eye when it finally turned over. This is a beautiful car, and has the MCM golden touch. Great work, look forward to seeing this girl run the 1/4

[@standingpineapple6651]

Yoda you are a beautiful guy!

[@Otto-ct6jw]

Standing Pineapple It’s YOTA. Jesus Christ

[@aussiebloke609]

Actually, it's Yoda. As in the wise Star Wars guru of all things arcane and obscure.

[@Otto-ct6jw]

aussiebloke609 no, it’s like Toyota, but instead it’s turboyota

[@aussiebloke609]

Check out his page...you'll notice the Yoda cartoon at the top, as well as the spelling. facebook.com/theturboyoda Maybe it's an accent thing, but it's definitely "Yoda" - with a "D"

[@bustinMR2]

Bzzt. Wrong answer.

[@xXDePettriXx]

That first start after marathoning the finish of a project is so worth while.

[@boggeshzahim3713]

Meanwhile over on B is for Build... In today's video I test fit the v10 and find out it doesn't fit in my 240z

[@aah444]

Boggesh Zahim lmao very true

[@Scott-qy2ts]

but bro, watch me play some fucking video game on my 'car' channel for 10 minutes on my 14 minute long video.

[@xRamRacing]

Scott W too be fair, he doesn't have near as much of a following as MCM and he does KZbin as full time. He needs all the sponsors he can get so he can do builds like that.

[@philspaghet]

B is for Build is stuffing a whole M5 into a Z chassis in his garage on a budget while MCM is doing a very straightforward RB swap polished down to the last bolt with brand new parts

[@motorised1]

Why he didn't try a six in there was always my question, I mean V8s have been going in them forever and some motors are just over done.although there's a guy on retrorides.com shoe horning a jag V12 into triumph tr6 with an insane bonnet buldge

[@ehjhey7]

Dude, I was kinda tearing up at the end. This build is so epic.

[@MichaelRadelet]

love the show but i wish the songs were listed in the description

[@jnrogers4886]

Michael Radelet yea i want to know the music used in this vid aswell. Theres a whole lot of stuff on soundcloud Moog produces but cant find this tune on there

[@alfredhabraken3340]

It's Moog his own productions

[@MichaelRadelet]

still some songs that they use i cant find

[@julianbrecciaroli7577]

Was great to see how emotional you guys get when the engine finally turned over. Just shows how much this build means! Can’t wait to see it on the road soon!!

[@DeathPonyy]

16:38 is now my wallpaper!!!

[@Toast491]

You guys have a way of making me smile and I don't even notice till 20 minutes later when my face slightly hurts.

[@hothothotmale]

When is the Bad Obsession Motorsport collaboration?

[@jondonnelly3]

That way those shocks and brakes look together is stunning.

[@knownuser09]

A good way to fill your engine with oil, is to keep filling it, till it comes out the top.. I couldn't help myself. LOL

[@Shepard_AU]

You'd make the engine starve of oil that way, you keep going until the bottle's empty.

[@mReading]

AFTER DARK rip Derrick

[@ruinertv9478]

It's so rad to see that thing finally fire up after all the work and chasing down that ignition gremlin...I hope someday I can do a build half this epic on my own channel...cheers to everyone that worked on this project, she's truly a special one...

[@ThatOddGarage]

Woohoo! Playing My Summer Car while watching this :)

[@robdp83]

the art of keeping calm in an incredible test of nerves has been epic.

[@MultiXRS]

ive never been so early to watch this :D you guys are the best!!!!! :)

[@exedracs4029]

Your music never gets old Moog. Could never get sick of hearing it.

[@jamiemumby]

17:53 Panty dropping goodness! ✌️💥🏁

[@biohazardshrimp]

That’s how you build a 240! Very well engineered, original where it should be and modern in all the right places. This is not an abomination like some other KZbin builds. This is perfection.

[@michaelblacktree]

ISN'T SHE GORGEOUS?!?!

[@Tony-112]

m.blacktree soo pretty

[@AngieMeadKing]

Thank you for the in-depth build video

[@speedobsession_]

RB POWER!!!

[@WataruLevin]

17:51 i need this moment in my life. I'm trying to do a conversion on an E46 to 3.2 S54 Engine. Im so hyped to do my car after seeing this season on MCM. Thank you MCM for bringing my motivation back to Mighty Mod this E46 to its glory. Pre-Facelift '99 E46 to Still pre-facelift but with all the goodies of a facelift fit into a 99 E46. Keep up the good work guys. I'll see you in 2019 with my new-born E46 (That means interor, engine, suspension except for outer look of the car) Much love from Estonia

[@RCTanksTrucks247]

Holy Santa Claus Shit! Man she is looking beautiful!

[@tylerweigel9430]

Awesome guys I am currently stay at home dad and live in a apt so my mechanical needs I live vicariously through you guys!! Thanks and your doing great!!!!

[@daftbence]

Guys! I know what your next JDM project should be! An AE86!! It would be awesome to get some initial D action, you could swap in some modern toyota engine maybe, or just tune the engine and make some mods or something!

[@dc2blair]

Congratulations guys. When you’ve been involved in a longstanding project that’s taken blood sweat and tears, skills , good luck and faith, you can fully appreciate how good that first start feels. I pretty much fist pumped for you in the middle of a rush hour train. Congrats on a badass whip.

[@MrGomoma]

yes

[@thewindow6]

Ain't nothing better to put a smile on your face than an MCM Fairlady video

[@camerongsx9122]

do you plan on sending the car away to get clear wrapped to protect the paint from chips, scratches and even fade ?

[@norcalzx3]

IT LIVES!! Hot damn, I'm so stoked for you guys. The process has been long and tedious, but it finally lives. Thanks for taking us on this journey.

[@ts9596]

Daves got to be the only one still wearing those necklaces. I understand man, i loved the 90s as well, but you got to let go..

[@davenonameforrester]

Yep, Fair point.... How good were the 90's though!!! :)

[@damstachizz]

Nah fuck off we need to go back, the 90s was the last good decade

[@richardwhittaker1838]

This is seriously a dream build! you guys have really out done yourselves this time I'm so incredibly impressed! Hard to imagine that you guys started out doing how to videos in a driveway! Marty and Moog got the sauce!

[@clairoux.matthew]

Mcm! Huge favour boys, i really want that Ryobi wrench you guys are using in this video, sad part is, only offered in Australia, if I pay for it all plus shipping, would you guys be legends and send one out to me? I need it to finish up my DIY tool box! Only part I’m missing! Ryobi is a rad company and makes amazing stuff, have a lot of their products and in high need of this! Thank you both for all the content and hopefully someone can help me out!

[@willnewing4240]

Matt Clairoux Milwaukee do one man if you are able to get that were you are.

[@clairoux.matthew]

IMPORT SALON my Dad has that one so I have used it in. Only reason i want the Ryobi one is since all my other tools are Ryobi, same battery packs and all instead of having 1 tool of a different brand. Like being able to use batteries in diff tools without needing all different chargers.

[@Thommybee-85]

not sure if it helps you out but there are a lot of Ryobi cordless stuff on ebay. one of those sellers would ship international.

[@garystinten9339]

Tom Berry most will if you're willing to pay shipping but can't honour local warranty if something goes wrong.

[@clairoux.matthew]

Tom Berry they do sell on Ebay but its like $75 over retail value, may need to pull the trigger! Guess we’ll see!

[@TheAndrewjmilner]

I don't cry at much but, when that engine started and Moog cheered then kissed Turbo Yoda their was a tear in my eye 😢. Well done everyone awesome work.

[@anton.unseen]

Will that rear end swap also work on my girlfriend? Currently it can't handle the power I'm putting down...

[@garynew9637]

Haha

[@danieltjr5649]

That RUMMMBLE down UNDER brought me tears of joy!!!! well done guys can't wait 'till the next episode!!! hurry up Wednesday!!!

[@jameshall4385]

If you guys are going to be driving that car with no pants, you might want to get seat covers.

[@icebreakertech]

The setup looks so good in the car, it just belongs. Great team effort with an amazing result, dream built!

[@RustyCraftKnife]

yeet

[@wolbi01]

My pants just dropped when the car started. Great team effort from everyone on the build looking forward to the next video. This has got to be the maddest 240 in the world.

[@PsychoticAce]

So much for sleep XD (from the UK)

[@WAYTOOCOMPLICATED]

Oh that first start reaction... Hits you right in the feels...

[@aidenmullan2999]

Build a Torana or Monaro please

[@BrosefDudley]

No, please don't

[@kavinskysmith4094]

is there any left?

[@duncanb1981]

Yeah a Torana with an a12 or a 3k in it. mean!!

[@jemselectrical9239]

What a legend turbo Yoda is. A man of few words, but very expressive

[@jtamboaon]

The most amazing feeling. When the build actually starts

[@frizky101]

17:45 easily one of my top ten highlights of 2018. such a good vibe!

[@harrisonpilch2825]

When you shut off the engine and the turbo spins for another 10 seconds, Mad build guys!

[@hasbeengood]

Well done guys. Probably the most extensive and well rounded up project you've done. An absolute gem!

[@Finne72]

I remember how you guys started out, been a true fan ever since, well done.

[@3ddrew691]

So happy this car ended up being a bigger project than you guys thought. This car is epic as. Super excited to see it driving.

[@metinali2642]

wow just wow, followed you guys from the start and everything has gotten bigger and better, this series was my fav cant wait for suspension setup and the first drive, that conversion was meant to happen and hearing it run was the sweetest music ever, well done boys

[@clubsport9334]

I'm sure it's all the same for all of us in KZbin land to dream that your builds happen in weeks... Just want you to know that the epic amount hours you and all of your incredibly skilled Mates put in is what makes your channel the massive success that it is today. Well deserved.

[@Uniqueillusionz]

Man that must be such a mint feeling to hear that thing start. I thought Moog was gonna tear up a bit. Congrats mates! #MCM

[@olympiawa]

I was walking home earlier today and I saw a beautiful 270z. This is my dream car, I would love to own one some day.
