Nissan R34 v Toyota JZX100: DRAG RACE

Yea agree, alot of races are done after first one. This one was real competition through the whole race. And they sound way better than the regular supercars👌

[@ziddthe1st]

Guys, I think it's been a month since watching CarWow and I can say this is the most fun vid I've seen out of most their recent ones. I guess the struggle for them to race brings out the laughs and giggles especially out of men, hence better content and enjoyment. " This surely does put a great smile on my face"

These aren’t the fastest cars they’ve ever raced by far but you can see the excitement that crazy Manual cars can give people judging by their reactions. Much more animated and you can see the adrenaline is much more intense

[@Traxxmaciek]

On a roll these cars would probably walk some cars that you don’t expect. Adam LZ has a Chaser, and he has said that it pull on his tuned 911 Turbo S on the top end

[@totov7673]

​​​@@TraxxmaciekNot a chance no it wont! these cars are not that fast there just verry fun to drive. a bone stock MK8.5 gti will smoke them I hope you know a bone stock mk 8.5 gti FWD 🤣does 13.8 on the 1/4 mile. Its automatic so the others are more fun to drive.

[@totov7673]

​​@@TraxxmaciekBro they had 550 HP and only did 14.3 on 1/4 it shows building your own car and modding vs manufactors its a defferent level bc manufactors are enginered plus with less HP they will be faster. I bet you put these on a dyno you would all freak out how much less it would have.

[@Traxxmaciek]

@@totov7673 definitely it will. First of all go back to school and learn to read. I said His chaser and His turbo s. Nothing mentioned about the cars in the video. And I said top end. A 1/4mile is a launch and low end, nothing to do with top end. His chaser has a 2jz 3l with 750wheel hp. It definitely can pull on a 700hp crank awd car. And yes modified cars definitely faster than production cars. Don’t compare drift cars that are built to lose traction in a 1/4mile. A drag built 400hp civic can smoke a “manufacture engineered” 600hp car in a 1/4mile Don’t talk if you don’t know what you’re talking about

[@yota8325]

​@totov7673 it's a traction issue. Ofc If they had a less stancey alignment and better tires they would be alot faster in the quarter

[@anthonydunstone8398]

I've seen Luke drive a couple of his cars now and that guy is an animal. Just personifies the tuner scene and he an absolute fighter pilot 💙💙

[@abolfazlabouali5084]

I loved this drage race. Thanks for testing these handmade cars. It was great. ❤❤

[@MaxFiveGames]

Matt a car reviewer does not get the limiter... Bro you bang it off the limiter until you see speed is not climbing anymore, then you insta shift it. Or even better do a test run and look at what speed you hit the limiter and shift at that time.. :D The car is literally stuck at 70 km/h and he still bagging of the limiter for like 5 sec... cmon Matt 🤦

[@rolandbrazzers7786]

I was looking for this comment 😂😂 like God damn that was brutal to watch haha

[@ArchiveAmerica]

Literally scrolled 100 comments before a single person even mentioned this! Ive never seen ANYONE not know that sound means shift! He must be deaf as a post not to hear it.

[@sdluke]

well that's because he's used to the no skill drag race of automatic transmissions. he should do more manual launches to learn proper

[@Traxxmaciek]

Mat is used to hold the brake and throttle. Let go of the brake before the hands go down and that’s it You could see in this episode that yianny is a better driver than him. He understands cars more

[@prithvichudasama8682]

Well this shows Matt's not a car guy like we have thought!

Former JZX110 Mark II owner. Man I miss that car but I don’t miss looking for parts that aren’t performance related. Fricking rear passenger window regulator was $500 imported from Japan and 4 week wait.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

Are they not even common with other Toyota/Lexus models on the same platform of the same era?

[@cheeseontoastbrah]

So i guess you didn't know where to look is what you're saying

[@01gtbdaily30]

@@Beer_Dad1975 the JZX110 Mark 2 isn’t like the JZX100 chaser which is basically a Camry in North America. Interior pieces weren’t shared with any Lexus IS model or Camry model . Interior pieces and parts were completely different.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

@@01gtbdaily30 I'm somewhat familiar with them as they are fairly common on New Zealand roads, & I've owned a fair number of JDM Toyotas myself over the years - but didn't realise they were so specialised. Guess it was a different time back then, now days manufacturers steal everything they can from the parts bin to save money.

i am not sure what happened with fifth gear in the skyline, but i just saw that NASTY moneyshift in 18:01 from 4th to 3th, lucky his engine stayed in one piece lol luke is a legend as always, proper driver who knows his car well, i think it would be good to have him here more often

"3th" nice

Threeth

[@CrazyPanda688]

Bro went into threeorth gear

[@olibarber2232]

Did you not watch the video? He lost 5th gear… as he went to lift his clutch up he didn’t have any 5th gear so when he accelerated it just went straight to the limiter as if it was in neutral. Definitely not a money shift from 4th to 3rd.

[@garage5125]

@@olibarber2232 for sure sounded like it, and it also appeared on the dash, than he went form 4th to 3rd, i don´t know those gearboxes internally, but maybe he misshifted and damaged the internals by the brute force, and thats why he could not select 5th. for sure went to third, the dash would not say that for nothing, even sounded like that

This respectful comment 100% out of this context, while I still drive my late Dad's trusty 1.983- 4, Nissan K160 + original P40 carby motor, (Just some ~ 150 bhp @ 3.400 rpm), just short of 380.000 km. Had complete engine + head overhaul @ 322.000 km in 2.015 + clutch, trannies, differentials checked as well as bearings all around. All oil seals replaced w/ OEM parts. Just one rear right axle bearing w/ slight pitting, so I replaced ALL rear axle bearings + shims + oil seals. I'm quite happy it's still running well, beating NÓ records, changing oil motor twice a year + all filters, (No matter what kms, burns NO oil..). Still drive it once or twice a week. Right under 800 kmts per year right now. It was made in Japan in 1.983, purchased 1.984. Body restored + frame + body re.painted in 2.016. Only non OEM parts : 15" x 8" alloy wheels + Pirelli Scorpions some 13 yrs ago. Oh!, forgot this: Said Nissan K160 Safari is / has been used only by TWO ER / ICU (Rural + city..) MD's: Dad & me. NOT for sale. Thanks!!. 🤓💪🙏🙏🙏
