Nissan Hardbody Drift Truck Track Review

[@S-Kidz]

I see it got that nice "push to start" feature 👌😂

[@bravethewildgaming8139]

Best comment ever lol, that’s that super car option. #lamboLIFE

[@Vcali-cobraV]

that's probably the best sounding single cam KA i've ever heard

[@killsalot78]

All KAs sound good with a straight pipe

[@jarrynsmith]

Truthfully ka24 is one of the best sounding 4 cyl to me

[@mauricemotors8207]

S13 head really opened it up top end stock Ka truck heads aren't made for top end there more for midrange

[@CANControlGRAFFITI]

Jesse Gallarzo sounds like a bum shitting into a tin can.

[@jacobwebb8818]

It's a R4 Nismo cam that's why

[@JDM_Jeffro]

"The shifter is like stirring a pot of soup" -Best DP comment of 2018!

[@nathanyoung3078]

I think we need Riley drifting every vehicle at the end. That was fun. I also like how he avoids the handbrake like the plague so he doesn’t scrub too much of that speed he had to work so hard for.

[@Mpeterson1286]

Gotta momentum drift that 105hp. 😅

[@brucebrucestofiston5554]

The giggling and pure joy on your face was fun to watch.

[@ThatDudeIsrael]

This proves you don’t need more than 300 hp to have fun! The cheapest most doo doo car can even make you smile! :)

[@malakiblunt]

or even much more than 100hp -)

The way this thing dances during drift, the power level and the noise reminds me of an 86 corolla. Just gotta throw it into those corners! I love it!

[@MYERS503]

I love my hardbody. Have owned it for 30 years now.

[@damuhongmaldita]

I have an 86 1/2 that I still drive daily. Has 374K miles now - original engine and 5-spd transmission.

[@poisonwatersupply]

My buddy has a hardbody drift truck and it drifts just like any 240 I've driven its crazy

[@colormesarge]

Hardbody.... Rb swap w/ the trans and diff from said Rb car. Might even get lucky and have the driveshaft fit (doubtful though)

[@justryan5697]

I hope I can drive a stock 240z some day...

[@InquisitiveMind876]

So i ended up here after seeing one n thinkin to restore/build it. What is done to the rear axle itself?

[@AngleAllianceFTW]

Ive been in the truck a few times with Riley, dude makes it look so easy and is super humble about his ability to drive it. Loved the video guys!

[@The_True_]

Now that's the kind of truck setup that forces you to work on maintaining momentum and late apex, high entry speed drifts where you never lift the accelerator while ripping through the corners. Reilly's truck makes good sense as a beginner drift missile, what a guy! Lol!

[@sayidkariman2410]

I dont care if it makes 40 hp it souuuuuuund gorgeous

[@Fjewt]

should listen to drift n lifts volvo 740

[@takcleberry]

It makes more then 40 hp

[@1ute]

which

[@GaJeepr]

Proving again that you do not need displacement for enjoyment. And, mine is slower, burns oil excessively right now but it's an awesome little truck. Does exactly what it's asked to do. Give me smiles.

[@ryanm3797]

What an absolute machine haha! Awesome to see a channel that’s always so composed go out on a limb like this every now and then

[@ssalamri7302]

ka24 and the ka24de one of the bast sounding 4 cylinder engines ever made in my opinion

[@AMLxalex]

Thing sounds like 100 000 pissed off bees 😂

[@chubbylee240]

you guys should do a show like American Touge where you guys get a group of cool cars and take turns driving them time attack style. I loved the old American Touge when drift king came to US and drove and gave their opinion on people's rides. if you guys start doing this, remember me haha.

[@twodub]

PLEASE DO THIS!!!

[@jarrynsmith]

Do this

[@doctorlobsteroctopus]

As a Scion TC2 owner, im saddened, yet happy that this truck is faster around track haha. What an awesome video! Happy New years, guys.

[@Mpeterson1286]

A fine lesson in cheap slow cars driven hard being more fun than fast cars driven slowly/gently.

Shout out to all the mini truck people out there. My 85 "Dodge" Ram 50 has K24 dreams under it's empty hood.

Loved watching this!! I have a 91 too no power steering or Air conditioning shes ugly but its been good to me. Back in 91 my Dad helped his co worker to get the truck.He co signed for the loan......the next day she passed away. I remember going with him to the dealer to return it or work something out but the Bank didnt care. Its a good thing they didnt take it back once I was able to drive I took it off his hands lol.The damn thing wont give up Everything is pretty much still stock since 91 except for Tires, brakes, Fluids( some of them) thermostat and My ignition switch some rookies tried to steal it but couldnt take it.

[@christopherclarke6163]

I really enjoyed this video would love to see more cheap vehicles like that get tested cause I was a fun to watch....plus I think cars like that make u a better track driver

[@NorthforkNetwork]

love this truck i remember it back quite a few years ago. i am definitely one of the two hardbody drift fans mentioned.

[@alocal1334]

I love this truck!!!! Before fast and furious I drove a similar one to deliver chinese food... it was so low you couldnt fot a pack of cigs under the frame and the bolts for the lowering blocks would take chunks out of speed bumps.....it slid around corners like a spongey brick but it was so much fun!!!! Thanks for bringing back the memories

[@CaramelColored]

That thing seems to have the Miata deal to it. Just an AMAZING goosebump inducing sound with a 100% raw feel. I have many iconic JDM cars, including a Miata....I want a hardbody drift truck NOW.

Wow, that truck is just the epitome of something that is purely just fun to drive!

[@panchonorthmann6408]

Thumbs up for noises! You kept saying it was slow, but that howl and rasp consistently convinced me otherwise. Great party trick.

[@jasonpetrich4141]

I drift a 1980 long bed chevy truck ( my icon) sbc 400 built 8" drop in the rear 4 1/2' drop in the front gt drop shocks. Long live drift trucks. I have wall tapped it cuz its so long. But i love it!!and i think its funner than a 240sx.

[@desmondmoonbear4143]

I've seen and heard of weird drift missiles but this Sir has to be on the top of my list 👍

[@jasonpetrich4141]

Steel plates in the bed help with grip and not looping out, no hydro (yet) all power initiation's, it takes alot to figure out angle with trucks specially a full size😉😎

[@stevenhorsefield2909]

Put that 400 in a s10 blazer.. shorter and more balanced weight.

[@timc8551]

I remember growing up watching Riley drift. the amount of love for this truck is unreal, sadly i moved north of Edmonton and i miss all the CSCS's and other fun things.

[@VWayyyyyyyy]

Ahh! 😫😆😆 This Hardbody lowkey sweet. Drifts good too! I"m sure this is a fun whip.

[@Sruikyl]

I was dissapointed when he popped the hood lol. I have a D21 aswell , its got a built single cam, ARP studs top and bottom, Manley Rods, Arias Pistons, ACL race bearings, billet GTX3071R turbo, 800cc injectors, 3" straight pipe, runs on a microsquirt that I tuned myself. Makes 400whp on 21 psi definitely not slow.

[@The124cbr]

Old mate running some humorous commentary mid drift is bonus points for days. Consoder having this guy join the SA team I'd say!

[@rileysexsmith770]

Aaiden Coote I agree he should definitely be invited back to thrash more cars!!

[@jiakabery3550]

Love the laugh at 5:17. Hahahaha. Looks like you had a blast.

[@MikeLaRock88]

People always talk about how slow these are when just a simple turbo puts them up with V8s. 2000lb car with 250-300ish HP gets down

[@boro92]

that's a proper truck. 1:29.5 is nuts out of that thing! entertaining as hell to watch

[@rileysexsmith770]

After a tire pressure and brake bias adjustment I was able to get it down to a 1:27.3! I think there's still a lot more time in it as well

[@ogfromutube9649]

Just bought a 93 hardbody 1 owner with 75k original miles... Has small frame patch but all in all pretty damn clean for a 28 year old new england truck. Mines 4x4 but i wanna get some more power out of it. Was considering maybe some sort of engine swap. I know lotta ppl do the sr20det but im almost thinking a volvo 5cyl whiteblock or 4 cyl redblock since i love volvo and am very familiar with those engines. My 98 s70 t5 i got 400bhp and 504ft lbs from stock internal b5234t9. Even a b230ft with a nice holset from a diesel will make an easy 300 wheel. And super reliable...

[@paulwisdom5383]

"It's so slow in a straight line" But it sounds amazing and you had a huge grin 99% of the time you was driving it. Speed ain't everything! :)
