New Project Car + BIG NEWS!

Woody bought this Neat VG30 Twin Turbo Z32 300zx in November 2018 as a surprise for Al.
With a Melted VG30DETT and clean paint this was a perfect donor for a stupid engine conversion.
Originally Al went down the path of bolting on a pair of G25-900's to a Nissan VH41DE 4.1L Alloy V8 but as the months went past lost interest in the project due to the complexity of the build.
A few engine conversion ideas were floated around including a DCT backed Honda K24, Turbo VW VR6 or even just a stout VG30 but in the end Alan landed on the path of building a RB25/30.
With the help from some epic companies like‪@haltech‬Haltech, Go Fast Bits, Raceworks, Golebys Parts and Supercheap Auto this vision is coming to life and AL's Dream 300ZX will soon be a reality!

It’s a huge job putting out regular videos each week, and we’re all the better for you sharing your amazing skills with us all over the years Al.

[@drekzy0]

Couldn't have said it better!

[@emersonc1210]

You guys should take a page out of the Skid Factory book. Their project cars are different each time, nobody wants to watch a youtube channel build a Honda civic or a Mira over and over.

[@chrisparish9145]

Wow, big news indeed. Can't say you won't be missed Al but I have every faith in Woody taking the channel forward and I will be here every week in support.

[@dnick1981]

Al departs in typical style - maturity and gravitas. Thanks for the advice over the years mate. In the guise of car show content you have presented us (mostly men) with great life advice. And an example of how to succeed as a man - working hard, being loyal to your mates, being a leader, being responsible for your family and looking after your mental health. Well played mate. Hope you enjoy the change.

[@guggesalven]

I 100% agree with you mate, Al has always been a great father figure or mentor to many of us younger folk. Thank you Al for everything! Much love

We will really miss you Al. And you've done an unreal job with this show Woody, you're nailing it and I have full faith in you keeping it going.

[@MichaelSmith-kr9qw]

Al , I understand your reasoning but man you will be sorely missed on the show as you're a wealth of knowledge, wish you luck in whatever endeavor you go !!!! Thanks for all the great content over the years Al ! BTW It was the Lamborghini Diablo that used Nissan 300 headlamps not the Countach

[@13harward]

Devastated, not going to lie. Al, you're a hero of mine and many others I'm sure. I've really enjoyed your progress from awkwardly standing in front of the camera to now being natural, laughing, taking the piss and being an absolute character. I've never wished someone was my best mate AND my Dad (because you do much for the sprogs too) as much as you Al. I hope you find what's good for you, I get that you need to look after yourself and completely understand. Please do pop up in videos here and there, it's going to be rough without you around. ❤️🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝

[@darrenhateley3854]

Far out huge news! All the best Al, hope you enjoy some well deserved time off. It has been your delivery, knowledge and humour that has built the best automotive channel on YT. Woody as a patron I'm 100% continuing to support you and the show. Can't wait to see your fairlane and hope you can bring in some guests to help out over the first 6 months to bounce off and have fun with. All the best boys

[@jyrrays]

I will miss you Al, you are the real thing!

[@TorqHub]

Al's customers will be able to look forward to having their projects completed roughly 3 times faster now they don't need to be filmed in a presentable way! 🤣

[@TorqHub]

On a somewhat more serious note though, got to say a massive thanks to both Al and Woody for The Skid Factory up until this point. Was a large inspiration for us to see that it is well recieved without having to do American cars for an American audience, and some of your influence can be found in our own content. At the moment it seems like a weird landscape to imagine without Al in it, however with Woody still keen to keep it rolling I have no doubt that it will still be a ripper show 💪🏻 I'm excited for you dude and I'm sure you're planning hard AF to make sure 2024 is an absolute BANGER, and the doubters will be eating their words. Get after it brah! 💪🏻

[@dank_productions94]

​@@TorqHubBloody oath, well said!

[@discojesus00]

It’s been an amazing few years guys, and you’ll be sorely missed Al. Woody will continue to absolutely kill it though I’m sure.

[@dKJustwon]

You will be sorely missed Al, from MCM to TSF to today been watching and supporting on Patreon since day 1, excited to see Woody going forward and hope to see more of you in future builds. Good luck and enjoy your well earned YT-retirement, it has been an amazing few years.

[@glynnjohnson9065]

Al, You've taught me everything I know about wiring, engine management and fabrication, without the skid factory I'd have never completed or even attempted some of the projects that I've done in the last few years. You guys are both an inspiration and a real motivator, and I'm sure Woody will smash hosting duties. All the best in the future Al!

[@802Garage]

I have learned so much from you, Al. First on Mighty Car Mods, then here on The Skid Factory. You are a major role model and inspiration for me. You will be missed on the show. Can't wait to see what Woody does and what else you get into!

[@TeamGambleBMX]

Alan. Thank you for being so open on camera over the years, and always keeping it real. Enjoy the next chapter, and all the challenges and adventures that it brings.🙏

[@alexanderjones6383]

Cheers to the next iteration of this fantastic show. I've been learning for years. Y'all have taken the time to document the small details that most outfits breeze over.

[@UncleManuel]

Yepp, most people don't have any clue HOW MUCH WORK it is to film stuff, narrate it, edit tons of hours of footage every week and keep the production quality to a high standard. And of course how much TIME it takes to produce episodes every single week. I know Woody does the majority of the digital stuff but having the camera around like all the time can take away the fun of wrenching on cars. So I totally underatand Al's decicion. ✌️ And don't worry Woody - we surely will stick around with ya! 🤟😎

[@pheonixfps9248]

We'll miss ya Al. Thanks for all you've given us over the years, and best of luck with your future. Thank you very much.

[@turbokangaroo8407]

I’m from the Netherlands and don’t even have a car or a car license, i just ride motorbikes. I’ve watched every single skid factory video since the beginning and Al was always so genuine, funny and a never ending source of knowledge. You will be missed Al. Woody, you’ve grown so much the last years (judging from the videos) this channel will continue to be epic 😊

[@krazed0451]

Another motorcycle only guy checking in... Good entertainment is good entertainment :-)

Wow! You will be missed Al! No doubt I'll still watch Woody!

[@Chilled_Mackers]

Flight of the Conchords - Not crying. Very fitting here. May your turbos have no lag Al, you are an epic legend. Woody, you go for it chap - anyone who can grow a 'tash like you have will have no problems going forwards!

[@sickdevs]

Al, can’t thank you enough for all the wisdom you have shared and both of you for the brilliant show you created together, the best car content on KZbin. All the best for the next chapter and hopefully you can enjoy some R&R. Woody, cant wait to see what next year brings, looking forward to it!

[@leewot]

Al (& Woody) thanks both for keeping me entertained over the years . I know you Al are a similar age to me and your best placed to know when it’s time for a change. I know you will always have Woodys back if he needs you but passing on that baton comes to us all. Enjoy your time away from the camera- I know you’ll pop up from time to time and share your immense knowledge, sense of humour and pearls of wisdom with us all. I for one salute you and look will forward to seeing what’s next . P.s. Woody you’ll do just fine !

I am both very sad and very happy at the same time. Al, you are a top man and your advice and guidance has been so valuable and very good for my mental health.

Thanks for all your hard work and laughs Al, can't wait to see what's next Woody ❤

Wowsers. Big change. Been amazing journey for you both and look forward to see where things go from here. Best of luck with the change for you personally Al.

[@dan91sgarage]

We'll all miss you Al, know exactly what you mean regarding filming for yt weekly. Everything you do takes twice as long whilst trying to record content and then the wonder of editing the episodes at night, but atleast the monetization pay is terrible! Full support for Woods and the future of the channel ❤. Don't be a stranger bro.

[@JarrydS]

Huge news but totally understand the reasons. Hope you enjoy whatever the future holds Al! As someone that has owned three z32’s, and spent hundreds of hours in the shed working on them, all the complex parts, all the weird control modules mounted in wheel wells, and the FPCU, I knew exactly what you were going to say when you pointed to the back corner. The huge transmission control unit and factory Nissan ECU, the ABS unit in the rear….bleeding it if you get air in it is hell…gosh so many memories flood back from all the countless hours I’ve spent working on these, but I’d lie if I said I didn’t get emotional seeing you work on one. These were my dream car as a little boy when I saw a horrible bright yellow one drive past me as a kid. Also I love the headlight shade thrown at lambo at the end, something any fairlady owner loves to brag about at every car meet. That’s how you know who the owner is, find the guy talking about his lights that Lamborghini use!

[@EnriLobato]

Woody's got our full suport, but wow... we truly gonna miss you Al we understand you need to step back have a breathe and enjoy a bit too, we will miss you buddy, mcm and car fans all around the world know and love the all mighty turboyoda. Lots of love from Spain.

And remember, it's not a dress rehearsal you only get one go at it. You have inspired so many with your innovation and enthusiasm for cars and love for all things different! You sir are a true trend setter!! Woody, saying you have big shoes to fill is just not rite! You have always had you own style and ways and we do look forward to seeing you grow mate!

Good luck with whoever you do next Allan, hopefully you are still around sharing your wisdom whenever you can.

The Lambo with the 300ZX headlights was the Diablo… but F*** that noise, Al’s retiring?!? Thanks for all the entertainment, knowledge, fan and banter Turbo Yoda! Been a lot of joy watching you and it will be sad to see you signing off. I hope you continue to follow your passion, you will be missed. Must also be said, Congratulations Woody! I’m sure the Skid Factory is in safe hands and it’ll be great to see where you take it in the future.

Echoing what everyone else has said, Al. It's been great watching you over the years both here and with MCM. It will be sad not seeing around as much, but I would rather you be happy and get to do all the other things you want to do with your life.

[@travishumphery]

Thanks Al.

[@Finne72]

When I was in the swedish Airforce, there was this officer who drove a black 300 ZX. This was in 1993, I was mighty impressed. A fellow of mine, drove a Toyota Crown MK II, almost more impressing.

[@SteamGeezerUK]

As a KZbinr myself, albeit on a much smaller scale, I can vouch for just how much effort it takes to produce regular content. Putting out even one video a week is a full time job, and as soon as you start filming something, it ends up taking four times longer than just getting on and doing it, and that doesn't include editing and all the rest of the "behind the scenes" stuff. You guys have done a great job and I for one will be continuing to watch. Good luck to you all 🙂

[@malls9016]

Massively shocked - just spat my tea out!!! - Will be gutted to see Al go... but fully understand the demands of a channel.. Wish you the best of luck for whatever your future holds Go get em Woody - it's all yours for the taking

Really sorry to see that you're stepping away from the channel Al but can't even begin to appreciate the pressure and time involved in making the videos, you will be missed. I had a small tuning company and was working all hours under lots of time pressures, etc. so can't even imagine trying to do it on camera and try to get things done in any kind of reasonable timescale. Thanks for all the years of knowledge and entertainment and good luck and all the best for the future. 😎

Firstly when you finally relinquish the role I hope you manage to get a well deserved rest and time away from work. However it will be a lump in the throat moment when you do. As a fellow Al (Alan like you rather than the fake Al’s) having spent far too many years watching you first on might car mods and then the skid factory I’ve enjoyed every single one. You will always be the turbo Yoda and I hope you, Marty, Moog, Benny and Scott get back together again for a build in the future.

[@cyclonicleo]

Bit sad to see that you're moving on Al, but as someone who understands mental health issues (depression, anxiety), I can tell that you need a break; stepping back is the right thing to do, so please go enjoy life and you're always welcome back here when you want to come back!
