★ Nissan Z History : Everything YOU need to know! ★

[@808ALOHASWAG]

This guy deserves more credit for his content and his knowledge, underrated youtuber

[@gtrzdaddy]

totally! easily one of my favorite channels!

[@07wrxtr1]

Agreed, he actually comes up with original content, not just the typical rehash approach that everyone else is trying.

[@samharris4684]

CHADDAWP I was actually going to say this. I've been subbed for a few months, and every time I get on to watch a new video, I expect the sub count to be way higher. There are other much shittier (usually car lists) channels that have blown up. I don't get it.

[@lanesteele240]

Easy to fix. Share his channel to 10 car guys and ask them to do the same

[@thewhitemustang]

Yeah, this guy is really good. His speaking skills, insight and video presentation are top notch. But playing that music over his voice makes no sense. When someone is speaking, I just want to hear them speak. I don't understand why people do this, it adds no benefit to the video. It makes me not want to watch any other videos he makes because of this. This "background music thing" is a horrible trend on youtube, it turns good information into a cheap generic hard to listen to video. It devalues the video by alienating a certain % of viewers that hate music over voice. If people like to hear music while listening to you speak, they can do that on their own. They can play any music they want. When the video comes with built-in music, people don't have a choice. We're forced to listen to the music if we want to watch the video. I wish youtube channels would release 2 versions of their videos. 1 video with background music and 1 video without. They'd have twice the content and it wouldn't cost them any extra time or money and they'd be capturing the whole market and making everyone happy.

[@jayempreem]

oh man, the father of the Z's. I salute you big boss. #Z

[@jonezy300]

As a Z owner for over 20 years, I have to say your information is thorough and spot on. Very well done!

[@andressanchez9620]

My first car was a Nissan 300zx 1990! This History about the Z is very very Great :) Learned A lot. Great Video!!!!!

[@GTContent]

Nice! Thanks!

[@loganherren5667]

Funny same here 89 the vi says but its a na white red leather 5 speed t top and i love it

[@04dram04]

Nice mine too!

[@blaze-glz2126]

Was it reliable?

[@Still-Sitting]

That’s one hell of a first car! Mine was an 82 Ford LTD 😭 had a 302 and a Holley carb tho

[@myusernameisthisduh]

Dude, you make such great videos, I absolutely love your time and dedication that you put into making these! Really hope to see your channel blow up some day, you totally deserve it!

[@GTContent]

Thanks man!

[@leanmeangreenbeanmachine3347]

240z is definitely one of the top 5 most beautiful cars ever made.

[@sunilayya8948]

Ditto for the z32 300zx turbo too.

[@carlososorio7645]

The first 4 z gens are sick asf

[@tony_5156]

It’s absolutely beautiful

[@yungsnoop47]

I felt like I actually got attached to the history of nissan after this video 👏RIP MR.K ☝️

[@GTContent]

+Epic Snoop 👍

[@christopherhowton8734]

The best Z car history on the internet. Great job!

[@joeydacus1219]

I currently own 4 z cars from 260z to a pair of 280zx, have probably own 20 or more so far . I have to say it’s the best sports cars I have owned and prefer the older editions. I never knew that Nissan didn’t like Mr.K , he was loved and respected here and by the Georgia Z club . Thank You Mr. K , your efforts were not missed here

[@cooliebwoy415]

Learning the history of the "Z" brand makes me appreciate the revival of the 350 and 370Z even more

[@WorldOfRock4U]

THANK YOU for this history lesson. I owned a 280zx t-top 2+2 hydromatic and it was a dream car for my wife and I. I intend to buy another one this year. I'm definitely a ZX Lover!!! They're too beautiful for words.

[@kevlouis7445]

WorldOfRock4U Amen... they’re Awesome ‼️‼️‼️

[@samlung2724]

Dude, you deserve more recognition lol. Love theses types of videos

[@GTContent]

Thanks man! (Fingers crossed)

[@jims9259]

Excellent and accurate well put together video! Perfect pace. Great tribute to all Z car enthusiasts. Thank you.

[@sunilayya8948]

The Z32 was the best by a looong way, making it to car and Driver's top 10 , six years in a row.

[@sbruce899]

Very nice production, makes me like my '73 Z even more. Keep up the great work.

[@GTContent]

Thanks man!

[@lounge2fly2]

Excellent video. Your pace, knowledge, research, delivery, editing, dictation and script are top notch. Keep it up, you’ve got a good thing going!

Awesome! Mr. K lives on every time I drive my Zed. Thank you!!

[@GTContent]

+Thompson BMX You're welcome

[@07wrxtr1]

Wow from near bankruptcy to market leader in under 36months! that's crazy!!! Did a report on that back in college, a lot of backroom handshake deals/collusion, and well they never recovered since! Asset bubble, sounds very familiar (still going on today in the USA?). Great video! I love my fatbody 370! (just need to lose the chrome headlights!!!)

[@GTContent]

Thanks!

[@danielmelendez9943]

I am glad you mentioned the "near bankruptcy" comment. CEO Carlos Goshn is the idiot who has now taken the family back to shame for fraud and perhaps again to near bankruptcy for reporting false company financial statements. he was not alone in this, seems like Japan courts have found that a bunch of Nissan executives were aware of what was happening and they fail to report his illegal activities. Shame on all of them because this can potentially affect how the company will cut models from production to increase the bottom line, At any rate it is in the best of interest of Nissan to design a killer Z model, this could make or brake the company in the near future.

[@swazi5]

Fascinating story. Can't wait to see what the next Z is like. Sub count goin up & up! Very nice work.

[@GTContent]

Thanks!

[@BearerOfDreams]

I have a 240z I feel special to know that my car is the first generation of the z project

I don't think that later models look good,from 1990 not nice ,the newer the uglier

[@pippinosborne2372]

I've seen a couple of your videos and you're getting better and better. This was a great history lesson and you seem to do it without bias. Congratulations and good luck. I look forward to more great work from you. Pip

[@GTContent]

Thanks!

[@guidoman01]

This was a great overview, detailed, complete, and well done. I'm from a family that has had 2 240z's, 1 260z, 1 280Z2+2, and 1 280ZX 2+2. I grew up in these cars.. Thanks...

[@aerlial360]

Phenomenal video. Bravo. I've owned 3 280ZX's and 2 300ZX's in the 80's and 90's and was a die hard Z enthusiast. I've since moved onto Corvettes once I could afford them, however I still remain a massive Z fan.

[@kevlouis7445]

aerlial360 I’m right with you ‼️‼️✅✅✅

[@dr.mosquitosmoofinbuggm.d9168]

I like how you actually talked about the 300ZX Z31 everyone always just skips over that car I love that Z it’s my favorite one thanks!

[@mehyaraus]

Amazingly education video. Thank you for your time and effort.

[@jgraham8248]

Thank you for this video. Very informative and entertaining. I've been around Zs since my early teens in the mid-late 70s. Had a 240Z and 280Z throughout the 80s. I currently own a 72 and 74-1/2.

[@alonsomajikal3158]

Great video man. Thanks for taking the time to make this. Its exactly what i wanted to view. History of Z. 😊

Awesome presentation !!!! I have a 2003 350Z and it's terrific!! When I kick it I feel like I'm an Indy or Daytona driver. The thing is fantastic. It's not a pony car, it's a race car you can drive every day.

[@MyBlueZed]

I absolutely enjoyed this history! I have owned a 1976 260Z 2+2, a 1984 300ZX and my current 2003 350Z Track. Great job Sir,

[@peterz22thomas5]

Great vid. My dad bought a brand new 280Z in the late 70's when I was like 6 or 7 years old. I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen. Beautiful cars. I later bought an '82 280ZX turbo. Also a beautiful car.

I’m an American car guy through and through. Then I saw a z32 300zx for the first time a few months ago and bought one the next day. It now has a supercharged 6.2 liter v8 LS3. Best of both worlds.

I live 10 minutes from Nissan's (former) North American headquarters in California that was mentioned briefly in this great video. They didn't change the name from Datsun to Nissan on the building until the mid 90s. Their hq is now in Texas.

[@07wrxtr1]

It's just a huge mystery to me why corporations are leaving California. I just cannot figure out why would they do such a thing? (sarcasm).

[@GTContent]

Yups. I believe dealerships were still under the Datsun name as "Nissan" cars were being sold on the lot during this transition phase. Good to know Nissan Corp. wasn't until later.

[@GTContent]

Had one myself. It was a love and hate relationship though. Loved the drive and power. Hated working on it.

[@TheBruceWang]

GT Content Agreed, the maintenance is a pain, but it's been worth it in the long road. I have a personal attachment because it was my dad's old car from the 90s, he sold it and then I tracked it down and bought it from the guy that purchased it from my dad. Feels like when I was a kid everytime I get in.

But Hey I luv it just the same. I gotta add it’s also rare to Still have a Spare Tire....too! And way more comfortable ride than the Vette, Believe that or not....it’s a Perfect Fit for me!

[@ralphsmallblock4367]

Hey excellent video , very factual however affordability wise the 6th Gen Z car is a bargain as a budget priced sports car. compare to its competitors today in Canada you can buy a 370z nismo manual 50k plus taxes and it’s rivals are corvette Porsche as they more expensive and for some reason they compare this car to the Subaru BRZ and there is no comparison. Like comparing a corvette to a chevette but if you ever decide to do a exclusive on the 370z nismo let me know as I am a 75 to 78 z owner and 16 to 18 nismo z owner and a driver automotive incline and true open minded car enthusiast and I call any bullshit I see fit from all manufacturers so I am not a brand loyalist but a car lover especially sport cars I feel the z is a proper sports car that can perform with all the big boys I hope you found my 2 cents worth to read Takecare you definitely have one of the best car channel on you tube
