Fitting a 1JZ in our NASCAR drift build was...SO EASY!

[@ForOdin]

Y’all need to get a “boom tube” for that car, that’s the proper NASCAR exhaust, plus I think it would be cool to hear a JZ through one

[@hereforthecomments1818]

I was thinking the same thing when I watched the last video, should be interesting ɓecause its difficult to screw up the sound of a 1jz turbo

[@ronf8017]

💯

[@jackmagnium6115]

bruh chris forsberg already has a JZ swapped nascar

[@jessemunroe1672]

I cannot like this comment more

[@ForOdin]

@@jackmagnium6115 I know, I mentioned it in their first video, as did the video (did you not pay attention to the videos?)

Anybody taking this build seriously has missed the point 😂 We are only doing it for fun, and for super cheap 😆 Cars like this serve no purpose, other than a bit of a challenge and laugh with your mates

[@Axial32]

It's fucking awesome

[@KSwapTheWorld69]

I'm with the shits! Go have fun with this thing, it doesn't have to be full on drift masters car but just have fun with it!

[@trunk8d]

my dude thank you. what a great idea. i bet its a show stopper!

[@DannyWildmen]

There's a guy in the states that put headlights and turn signals and break lights on an old NASCAR he made it street legal! He drives it all over. So useless hardly not. It has been done. I would have a dam hard time getting in and outta something like that. But it is a cool daily driver.

🎉It was fast and easy because that frame is a Universal Engine Frame able to fit almost any Engine to it in the Simplest of ways!!!

So now you’ve got a Nissan drift car with a nascar engine and a nascar with a Toyota engine! Rad!

[@driftgames_life]

Ha we just realised that 😂

[@liam24_]

I’ve always wanted to do this, I live in the states kinda (Alaska) and an old nascar is cheaper then a lot of jdm cars. I’ve always had this exact idea of drifting a nascar, I can’t wait to see how it performs

[@86zero86]

Love a good Wayne cameo 😂

[@TechkNEiK]

those mounts are beutifully done, im drooling over them over here

[@russelljacob7955]

Nascar pit crew be watching and thinking 'Amateurs. Took three days? Shoulda been three hours!'

[@tphelps1992]

Can’t wait to see this thing running and being put through its paces!

[@TerminusVox]

I think the fact that you're less "swapping" an engine into a NASCAR than installing a different engine than it had before. The tube frame is a tube frame not built specifically according to Multi-National Corporation's requirements. Adaptations must be made but the tube frame allows for that. Shoehorning a Nissan engine into Mazda chassis, for instance, is understandably harder. BTW, Chris Forsberg, Dylan Hughes, and Ryan Tuerck did a similar project a while back but I don't think they ever really intended it for drifting.

[@danielandersen8206]

Thats INSANE, that you guys already made that thing run! I had my thoughts after seeing the first video! 🤣😱❤️ Love the content! Best regards Daniel from Denmark Europe

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Eirehunter22]

Excellent bit of fabrication and welding by Ryan without any cnc, break press or ironworker ect,no fussing about just making full use of mounting points that were close👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 My guess is achieving full drifting steering lock will be the first headache then to get wheels that suit it without the massive sidewall tyres….actually do you know would it drift with the big sidewall tyres that are on it or would they be all over the place?? Really looking forward to the next instalment Josh 😂👌🏻👍🏼

[@adrianharrison5176]

This cool to see minds come together just to see if it can be done great work team beats putting a lx motor in something which has been done way to much. Wheel in the rear going to be catch 22 I think

[@Speedy180R]

Not gonna lie I didn't see it being that easy to drop in a JZ, I knew there was room but wow that was too easy!

[@enorym]

Should do a verossa wrap on it would be sick.

[@deejay9561]

id be impressed about how quick it was, but its a purpose built racecar made to work on, so im not super suprised it was easyto fit a different drivetrain to be honest lol either way its freaking rad and i love everything about it, cant waitto see whats in storefor this beast 🤙

[@BeardedTherapist]

I think Forma D driver Chris Forsburg has done a 2JZ Nascar, but I believe it was more of a drag/grip racing car. I don't care enough to check, plus this is my favorite. Good luck from the U.S. lads!

[@alezisaa]

Short n sweet... 👌😁

[@evana1112]

For not knowing who craftsman tools is, not surprising since it’s from the USA, his red tool box looks identical to a craftsman one here in the USA

[@BOOT]

American 10mm would be like the 9/16 but not actually size, just very common bolt head or nuts. Size would be closer to 3/8 but still plenty of 1/2" & 5/8 used as well. Also carbs may be kinda analog but they are more reliable and scientifically Proven to always make more Horsepower than EFI Not that i have any issue with EFI, my cars are both types. Different strokes for different folks. Nice work boiz!

[@haroldchu13]

Maybe you guys could send it to US and do a union with Dylan Hughes 2JZ NASCAR,that would be cool 🎉😊

[@poundeclipse]

love the fact they started with a jdm car with Nasar engine now they also have a Nasar with a jdm engine🤣🤣 love that for you guys

[@diamondsink2000]

Thats some fast engine swap

[@doomiedee]

you guys should grind off the aero on thop of the roof, its meant to help keep the going straight on track so trying to go sideways it might hinder aero slightly

We don’t think that is our primary issue 😂

[@frestkd]

Congratulations you put a JZ in an Ox Cart!!!

[@CanadianOutlaw]

So a couple of things. You might want to check the rear end gear. I believe at this time depending on the track they were using either an LSD or locker rear end. Don't know which would be better for drifting but figured you should know. Also check the paint. A lot of these cars were just wrapped so you might be able to do a full on custom livery.

[@Danger-Dave]

Wouldn't it be ironic if this "joke project" turns out to be......holy shite this thing drifts great!!! 😁 I'm all for it.

[@mavr1ck853]

This definitely needs Nascar boom pipe exhaust

[@97MrFluffy]

I know you're short on time but I'd love to see a proper boom tube exhaust on it, not only for the look but also the sound. I'd love to hear what a JZ sounds like through a proper book tube
