Just helping with algorithm

[@suddendilemma5137]

This is one of my favorite channels. It’s informative and I love the pace of the information.

[@northerner1374]

Wheeler dealers just did a program on the same car and took the engine/box out from below with the subframe etc. I think it made it an easier job 👏

[@mealflight]

Love the 300zx. I have a green one, can't wait to see what she puts down

[@bitkarek]

300ZX is such a legend, i like this content more than all the mercedeses :)

[@b00st3d92]

The VG30DETT is a nightmare lol. My cousin blew up 3 so he swapped it with a 2j and big Single.

[@cartergarnon6299]

@@Yeahitzbop No need for that.

[@Yeahitzbop]

@@cartergarnon6299 I’m sorry you’re right, that was a deucey comment. I’ll remove it

[@Heyitdave]

hey man to be honest i love this series and i love your channel you have this natural flow that relates to a lot of the viewers!

[@dimitrioskalfopoulos3473]

Love the build! I have old 675 garrets with a complete build 594 at 21 psi. Love my car. So much work but it pays off with years of fun! Hope to see you this year around Toronto.

[@hondaveetc82]

Defiently have to pay you guys a visit when I’m in Brampton

[@midas7394]

We enjoyed watch the upgrade and am looking forward to the dyno test. Thanks for sharing.

[@leocataptebeloy4368]

Nice Sebastian! 👍👍 Watching from the Philippines 🇵🇭

[@randallmason9687]

I think He may surprise a few people on the street with that sleeper!

[@douglasharley2440]

so *hyped* when you drop a video!

[@Amir.z32]

Need more content on this car! Great video

[@JSpecFairladyZ]

Great video, what kept me even more tuned in was the ode to outkast, "Mainstream" playing in the background.

[@righthoekstra]

this v6 is making a awesome sound!

[@asayadtovlog]

Wow! Fun..tastic goob job both of you Zeb..

[@sintwo0one]

You do great work man....

[@HorrorUberAlles]

The algorithm roulette brought me here, fantastic stuff! You've earned another sub! :D

[@endeavour2127]

Great video!

[@nowinczak]

Sebastian, Polska Górą! Nice Car.

[@azargelin]

Looks like a nice project

[@chadlegault9993]

Looking forward to the dyno vid

[@The300ZXGuru]

are you guys crazy? take the wiring harness back off the engine and install it without the motor in the car. Holy crap.

[@Pennychaser1]

I see that we have similar taste. I also own z32tt and CL55k. Upgraded manifolds would've really open her up. Waiting on dyno #s.

[@briandenham7400]

Great video guys

[@K4Lku]

What’s that meter thing that was being used in the engine removal? A scale?

[@39PSIOnTheDaily]

He needs to upgrade his rad. I was running 14psi on stock turbos on a warm day and my stock radiator blew.

[@legodude19999]

Yes! The 300zx has always been my second favourite import! Right after an r33 skyline gts-t

[@johannesleek6160]

@Robert Bandy meh, u find ways to make life easy, and if u really enjoy the car it aint that bad

[@johannesleek6160]

@Robert Bandy didn't really think of it as a problem, bought new ones an just smiled cuz i knew that in the end, i would drive my dreamcar again. Ive been mad at it ofc and just walked away from the garage but still, everytime i start or just look at it im filled with joy. Thats just me, can't force it on noone but i will encourage other to get on the platform if they truly love the cars. I certainly do and no clip or plug is gonna change that¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@michaellewis8254]

hi im building a similar type z32 i was wondering what fuel injectors you used to support 600hp i have a 340lph fuel pump for reference

[@turdrocket]

Sebastian looks like early 80s arms dealer out of jean Claude van dam movies

[@northerner1374]

Got a Z31 myself and always thought of upgrading!

[@JamieGuzmam]

Quick question which pistons did u use and rods?

[@777MAV]

Such a beautiful and rare car these days... Paint to work on probably, never touched one but spent some time wrenching on 3000gt, I bet they are close :)))

[@dieseldan420ca]

Cool build, I wonder if having the intake manifold extrude honed would improve performance.

[@300zx-jdmjdm8]

Waiting on the dyno on the 300zx...🔥🔥🔥

[@dainepetrou8011]

Wanna see next video... Excited to see what figures she throws out. Big Z fan.... One day despite the engine difficulties and being a pain in the arse in going to buy a 300... Bucket list car. 1. TT 370z for me and 1. 300 for the misses

[@eekay3646]

How many hours would you say it took to remove the engine?

[@derekvalverde1921]

How much money estimated to Get a vg30dett to 600hp?

[@AZ-rg3rf]

whats your background? how long did it take for you to learn how to wrench cars?

[@richlikeg3722]

That’s my dream car. Glad I’m able to see it come through the shop

[@johannesleek6160]

Incredible cars really! If u live in America it should not be that hard to find one😉👍 here in sweden its kinda hard, just got my first after 3,5 years of searching. Good luck with your dreamcar!

[@Thomas-yo6td]

Any East Coast Mechanics for Turbo Install on 87 300zx??

[@trentdawg2832]

How is the Lil porsche speedster project coming along???

[@turbochilyman6543]

do garret make the kit or do z1 buy the turbos and add the extras and clock it ect cos that was my understanding?

[@kiddoxsupra2]

Z1 buy the garret turbos and mods them for 300zx

[@r32stro]

Why haltec over AEM infinity?

[@runningrich]

Where are you guys located?

[@therealboofighter]

Are you close to the Speed Academy shop?

[@chodkowski01]

Owned since 2002. You have a good base car to make horsepower.

[@sidneycelestin2619]

Sound like me 47 years old. I’ve had my dream car for the past 20 years hoping to build a rocket one day.

[@doffmoffin]

It's actually quite easy to remove and insert the wiring harness with the engine in on a RHD car, I don't know why it is so difficult on LHD.

[@RizwanY37]

I see this video was uploaded a month ago and still no second of this video. When is it coming?

[@VNCTHE1]

10:32 OK WTF! So where does the wiring harness go through now? Did you guys weld a piece of sheet metal to the firewall and paint the engine bay??? So many question on this lol.

[@mando3984]

good ass vid

[@joeoregano4251]

Yall ever did a Ford powerstroke 6.0 turbo engine removal

[@benistingray6097]

Why would you not use the rear wheel steering? Weight cant be the ony reason, is the system not working good for driveability?

[@xfmotorsports]

It starts acting up on modified cars and can be dangerous

[@reidonz5848]

Really unpredictable when u start pushing it.

[@deciplesteve]

Nissan's rear steering is neat but extraordinarily troublesome.

[@D3nn1s]

@@xfmotorsports thanks, was wondering the same

[@VZGarage]

That’s a lot upgrade yay lol 😆!!

[@THESLlCK]

Would LOVE to see you buy a beater car to see your experiments of just screwing around, basically a channel content car lol

[@30dettjimvg]

All of that work can be done engine in

[@youngstah619]

You guys maybe had never removed a chevy astro engine from the top lol. Nice job.

[@nickgeorgiakakis7249]

Roadster in the back looks interesting.

[@IvelLeCog]

Yup

[@wkrwu]

Just a suggestion, could invest some wireless mic for the audio. It will make the video 100 times better. * from mighty car mods

[@VanekLarson]

Getting famous off comments day 193, so I can live the dream, live everyday like it’s your last day🤙🤙

[@Ano_ny]

Grab a life please.

[@mohamedyasinarakkal5130]

Finally a video that is interesting and not not boring

[@tarekz9992]

Why on earth is this motor so heavy? Aluminum heads, so the block must be a behemoth of cast iron. BTW water to air or water to water intercooler?

[@christopherstorey3177]

The intake is huge, has two turbos, four cams, all the accessories on the front, and finally a cast iron block. These come with a split FMIC(s) that is air to air.

[@marcuslatrent528]

Just bought a 1994 n/a 300zx. Want to drop the turbo engine or forge the internals... not sure, we'll see

[@hydorah]

The 300ZX isn't my kind of thing, but the standard of the work you guys are doing definitely is!

[@murdurer333]

What's up with not redoing the shot when it's off center? We can't see anything from 1:29 to 1:46

[@D3nn1s]

Dont be a dick, you can cleary see enough and you didnt pay anything to view this...

[@TheDaniels5s]

Wtf, 6 min into the video already 3 sets of 2 un-skippable ads!

[@rotorblade9508]

The bmw n52 weights 161kg 3l 265hp but it’s not recommended to turbo charge it. This Nissan engine looks so much stronger

[@david929190]

Is he painting the car? What's with the blue color scheme?

[@GilbertoCLugo]

you needed an engine stand.

[@1one3_Racing]

No oranges?

[@cafe88racer53]

newer q50 3.0tt wouldve been a good swap lol

[@djsonicc]

Nissan managed to out-do Audi by about 10 yrs ahead.

[@aktik6000]

You mean out-do in cramming stuff in around engine? Yeah you are right, it took germans ~10yrs to overpack their engines to this point 😔 All jokes aside, nissan knows his engine stuff well 👌

[@mando3984]

i’m nervous to own one lmao

[@sylwer7]

I have to ask again, maybe this time I'll get an answer. Is Sebastian polish?

I know they say the customer is always right, but surely this guy should have spent some money on tyres with tread on them before forking out a ton of cash on turbo's etc??

[@rimka11]

Sabastians accent sounds latvian.

[@jz-qy9hb]

Those definitely are not the biggest turbos you can put in there

[@hondaveetc82]

That was stupid of Sebastian to do to remove the water pump without a drop pan in place

There's not a mechanic on the planet that hasn't forgotten to drain or catch coolant at least once when working on an engine.

@@greybeard27 that I agree on. But your removing a water pump. What do you expect to happen?
