Fast N Loud's 1975 Datsun 280Z - GAS MONKEY GARAGE - AutoFocus Ep002

[@TheRaiderdude30]

That build is probably the most fascinating that I've seen on TV that car is fantastic

[@hoagiesherlin7732]

I know they put stupid money in this car but it turned out so badass i guess it was worth the price

[@GasMonkeyGarage]

Thanks for the love man! We put everything we had into this, wanted to really turn heads at SEMA and now on KZbin!

[@86c5corvette]

you need to check out the Datsun over on flying sparks garage channel

[@lsxtmt4910]

Once again they had to bring in a real builder to produce somthing other than the usual played out hoopties

[@polong99]

Worth every pennies i can tell u that

[@fredflinstone2791]

Not a huge GM fan. But to many Z owners who actually owned one of these loosie goosie Z cars... This is one amazing car and I hope there will be more. Worth watching out for.

[@genemaster74]

G'day boys.....im a big datsun fan...my first was a datsun 1600,....but ive always wanted a 240/260Z...love the GMG twist...cheers from downunder!!

[@migueltovar9702]

This car slapping heads! One of the best build they have ever done!

[@napster7033]

I usually don't like the 2+2's but this one looks awesome!

[@tezzrterry7485]

Nice car build, and good to have it free on youtube, for those who cannot see their Discovery show.

[@rahb3rt]

I dont say things like this lightly. I LOVE my Porsches.. classics, and new alike.. but wow.. this Datsun is something that deserves so much love. It a shame that cars like this dont get made anymore by manufacturers.

[@yaboykawz]

Might wanna put the car on the dyno and get the tune sorted and get rid of that misfire!

[@Damijet]

yeah that thing ain’t making 500+hp hahah

[@Anirossa]

Kawz C Boss probably not giving them the time for it

[@SALTYDATTO]

I posted a previous comment about the odo only having 5 digits, which it does. But I think you guys did an outstanding job 100 percent (forgot to mention that). I've been a fan since '12 when the show came out and I have been waiting for you all to do an S30z! It looks perfect and thanks for keeping the S30z from the scrap yard. GYSOT

[@justincoward138]

The best care ever done, wish I could own. So outta your depth when you started this but what a high end car. Would not swap for anything.

[@claudiomonterrubio803]

you should try to make more imports!!! this one turned into a jewel!!!! Best Z around. Kudos for the hard work and well spent money!!

[@rickerd83]

I think the only thing I would do differently is that there would be a RB26 rather than the sr20

[@IRollEngineer]

Rickerd Aylward Any RB is better than SR for this car. It really should have a straight six. Except choice of engine it is spot on!

[@durpycat3912]

Rickerd Aylward go check mighty car mods, RB26 240z build going down👌🤙

[@robertlund5694]

Rickerd Aylward mighty car mods are building an rb26 240z 😀

[@rickerd83]

Robert Lund i just watched the new episode!

[@ahsan7416]

Rickerd Aylward mcm guys are building a 240 with an rb in Australia

[@timminer5774]

It's a shame this car got destroyed. It was a beauty.

[@mikemonti66]

That Brings Tears To My Eyes. NICE!!

[@michaelbrothers5732]

Very nice I used to watch you guys and you let me down all the time, this makes up for it! Great job.

[@jonnyspeed]

Such a sweet build. My favorite thing about it is that you used a 2+2. Awesome.

[@miners_treasures]

The green is nice. Roll down to Deep Ellum in that and no one could stop staring.

[@PHUSII]

The tune seems to need some work as it misfires here and there but other than that, this is one of the best cars you have ever build.

[@elplopplo]

Janne Kokko was just thinking the same thing, lagging a little

[@robertlund5694]

Janne Kokko horrible!

[@bugsy9069]

Janne Kokko I think that's a rev limiter.

[@deeze67]

LOL right, in the middle of the shift... Tune needs some work, dunno if the pump is getting enough pressure for this big turbo...

[@ishotjustin]

Janne Kokko that is not rev limiter that is definitely loss of either fuel pressure or something in the computer, you’re right definitely needs a tune up.

[@pierresirven950]

I just love her! You lucky guys, it's almost impossible to get such a wonderfull car on road in France!

[@freddievantonder5154]

4 banger putting a smile on Richards face

[@SinghM3]

Really gotta day this was an amazing build and seeing all that was put into it even someone not into Japanese cars can appreciate this, great work guys! Now you need to build some crazy bmw or Mercedes lol

[@MattyJasper]

Shame its a 2+2, but its the best 2+2 I've seen so good job!

[@GasMonkeyGarage]

Thanks for the support! More kickass rides to come!

[@tezzrterry7485]

They are the cheapest donor car to buy.

[@TeardropSidemarker]

A pod of 2+2 Whales are some of the coolest groups in the Z community.

[@MrAgsProd]

Gas Monkey Garage how much did you guys pay for the original car?

[@Off3er]

Matty Jasper shame????

[@Republic3D]

What a stunner this car is. Awesome vehicle.

[@t90mexico23]

They should build more jdm cars would love to them build a Supra or drift car maybe a 240sx

[@kidistight]

The problem with building a Supra is the high cost to acquire them, unless you mean a MK2 or 3. A nice JDM MK3 would be gorgeous. I bought an MK3 about 2 weeks ago, needs work but wanted to get one before the prices started rising.

[@mayoluck]

Jermaine J seen a mk1 around dallas for 3,500$ sure it needed more love than listed

[@kidistight]

Mayo Luck man I wish I was there to get it.

[@yoits90slizzle41]

I love how you guys stayed with the green instead of something different

[@timo03495]

Génial c'est toujours un plaisir que de voir des voitures restaurer par GMG ! Wow !!

[@BillyBoy444]

4:28 - Turbo lag poker face love it haha.

[@damianpuig2999]

Awesome, I'll wait for the show to see it. Simply the best

[@AZ81RS]

I love this car, I’d be interested in what they’d be willing to sell it for honestly. The details that they painstakingly went through to build this ride clearly shows the level of polish it has.

[@KozmikEl7]

I would have went with the American muscle body kit but still this is a sick ass build. Much Respect 👏

[@kevinbernier8093]

I love everything Gas monkey garage does. Great Car awsome work, as always.

[@nicoxis]

so glad you went with an SR20 build but seems too rich mixture at WOT (raspy pull at the start of the video and the ignition issues later)

[@shawnjacobi8717]

This is by far one of the cleanest z out their hope you guy build a gtr r32 next step your game up

[@insanewayne8282]

Sweet ride ! thats pretty similar to the CA18DET powered 74.5 260Z I'm in the middle of building ...

[@douglasg8827]

Should have kept the L28 engine, but with Jenvey ITB or triple DCOE 45 webers, but other wise nice work. Its given me a few ideas for my GS30 / 260z

[@Typeman5]

One of my favorite builds. It looks so badass

[@johnvu6560]

Nicest 280z I've seen, badass 😎

[@jimmyhicks5926]

I love it. its a kick ass ride. awesome build guys

[@JohanGavieres]

Love the 2+2. Hard Datsun to find

[@datsoon9236]

They have worse handling and the seats are barely usable in the back lol

[@kevinhealey9485]

dont see why people hate the 2+2 so much

[@datsoon9236]

I personally don't mind that much, but the reason is because it makes the car heavier and longer, therefor the handling is worse. Also, the seats in the back have pretty much no leg room, so they basically have no purpose and it makes you wonder why they are even there...

[@johnjennings5429]

Datsoon because at least you’ll be able to bring more people sure they’re gonna be uncomfortable but who cares you’re the one driving

[@datsoon9236]

@@johnjennings5429 You have a point 😂

[@Chepeoffroad]

Perfections. Simplicity is key.

[@bigsohc]

Oh PLEASE do a rotary build! Late 90's rx-7 or such. Would be a sick flame spitter!

[@linoaguilar3038]

Good colors Combination! Green & BLACK.

[@alexnava7664]

Super clean nice job gmg hats off too you guys

[@paddy5141]

No seats belts love it, love freedom 😎 Great car!!!!

[@andresvargas594]

Hola gas monkey solo quería preguntar cual fue el precio de fabricar el Datsun ... muchas gracias 🙏

[@screamingmetalgarage9788]

Great, more JDM cars in GMG!!! :D

[@cellmonkey]

Asombroso la verdad Richard soy tu super fan ya regresa a discovery para seguir viendo tus programas

[@ALONSOIBARRA1967]

Hi from mexico!! i celebrate your open mind to another styles, markets etc.with those two last builders you get more and diferent style. just a problem , they are not so fast builders as you desire it!!

[@ALONSOIBARRA1967]

i edit my broken english

[@Datsunz-fr2nw]

im getting a less than 2K mile 280Z 2+2 in grey. It has been wreaked and perfectly repaired twice. its been in an insulated garage for its entire life however all four tires are flat, hasn't been started in 12 years , extremely dusty , broken fuel pump and its missing a hubcap. its bone stock and was one of the first 5000 or so built in the 280Z 2+2 line

[@blahblah8037]

Cars take a bit of TLC to get running after sitting for a decade

[@juanpablo2231]

RICHARD RAWLINGS ÍDOLO !!!🏁

[@elrestauradordemotos6373]

Buen coche, buen trabajo 👌 saludos desde Barcelona 🇪🇸🏁😎

[@scottbrown1454]

Just watched this episode on tv, was looking forward to the "twin turbo" they said they would do. Must have missed how they did that on an SR20 🤔 😂 Absolutely gorgeous car though.

[@thaiboxing67]

that car is sick! Well done.

[@PAC9322]

One of the best channels , Respect 🇸🇦💙🇺🇸

[@CarsBikesandCoffee]

Awesome to see you guys represent for the Z crowd!!

[@magnummax78]

Damn! Wish they could help me with my Datsun Z build!🤯 I bet it would right up their alley, too. Full engine swap out, subframe replacement, etc.🧐

[@linchester8464]

that is one bad ass Fairlady Z. given the choice to redo another Fairlady Z, will you guys be doing another 240Z with a better budget allocation and within time? I would be nice to see the 240Z with the original L series engine running triple Webber/Mikuni carbs

[@robertp3596]

Any chance anyone knows what tire/wheel combo that is? It looks SICK!

[@mimimitchell1989]

Grandson (6 years old), loves this car , wants to trade his custom built army tank for this car. Great job .

[@baldeaglesonabudget2885]

Definitely best car you have built

[@gilbertoadventuresandspoof1290]

Quick Question Is UTI A good place to go to do what you guys do?

[@zjsz4954]

I love this thing

[@markmiller4503]

Great choice on staying with the factory Green color!

[@malcolmjcullen]

Apologies for the language, but I fucking love this car.

[@wanaco1234]

Beautiful...cost of the entire build?

[@gabrielc1060]

I like it but an RB motor would have been a better suite for it. I love how nice and clean it is though. Good job!

[@alexanderwingeskog758]

I actually like the "ketchup" effect on the small engine, medium/big turbos.... you can drive like a grandma or you can just be thrown to the backseat with enough RPM's... and when you are doing pedal to the metal you just ride on that sweet spot RPM's...

[@chawenhalo0089]

An inline 6 would have been nice under thar long bonnet. Looks great though!

[@tomnichols3447]

ChawenHalo 008 that sr20 is an in-line 6. 🤷‍♂️

[@joeyvenal7304]

Tom Nichols it’s actually a 2.0l Turbocharged Inline 4

[@wojciu95]

Yours Datsun is pretty cool! First think When I saw SR20 - No way! You like big v8 engines.. (LS etc...) kind surprise- jdm old car with japan R4 turbo engine. Congrats! Greeting From Poland:)

[@jairedigolo5068]

Did they happen to say the size of the rear housing?

[@danny240z4]

Damn this is so dope! I wanna see more videos of this Z

[@rubberducky243]

I really love Clean look it’s wonderful and like all those freaking stupid highly modified ones

[@alejandrojacobo4838]

Love that they finally did a jdm import

[@noegauthier3485]

when can't disociate dream to real, we take real MAGICAL

[@carbon748]

finally built some thing that doesnt go to dinner or icecream shop!

[@XxFlyingweenerdogxX]

Taking some audio and visual cues from Hoonigan?

[@jerrytyler3810]

Absolutely beautiful vehicle

[@jdmsidewayz5336]

This is really clean.

[@alexgarza5663]

damn i saw it when they took it out on a test drive! clean af

[@04dram04]

I love that its a 2+2

[@Datsun510zen]

No disrespect for the SR20, I have one with a 3071R in my 510, but a Z 2x2 is need'n an RB26.

[@spuds94bravo56]

FREAKIN SICK !!

[@beschuitfluiter]

Daaaaaaaamn that is one sick ride!

[@angryywolf5326]

I love Datsun 280z ♡❤♡❤♡❤♡

[@marco18463]

Clean af

[@javiermelendez6855]

Bad ass ride 👍keep that beast

[@polong99]

Love the green color

[@nilsonugre1559]

2+2 actually look cool!

[@tigergray1100]

What a beauty

[@jeffcon123]

I like it a lot.. this and the f40 and Ford Gt are my fav.. the misfire could easily be remedied by simple tuning I’m sure they know that.

[@tigerskone2945]

Love it!

[@pablosky1374]

It's the program in discovery max?

[@themightydash1714]

Now thats a car I want to see on the show

[@aaronharris8245]

I have same leaf green 2+2 I would like to know more about your paint mix please :)

[@kemosabe8313]

I watched the TV episodes on this build. Fucking love what you guys did with it!! One of the best import builds

[@danielmelendez9943]

what was the final built price?

[@tommurphy4307]

the four-seaters are the road racers' choice. its all about high-speed cornering- and not having to sit on the rear axle.

[@filipbabic8092]

does anyone know what are those shades that richard has called?

[@Edwin_E36]

How much cost a spoiler for a BMW M3 ?
