My name is Joel Villarreal and it has been my dream to create a career with my passion for cars, racing, and travel. Inspired by RoadKill, Cleetus Mcfarland, Dana Lynn Bailey, ChangingLanes, and many more amazing people. Follow along several video series as my wife and I travel across America in our RV, fix up old cars, and hopefully try our hands at some drag racing and drifting!
The Z finally gets a Catback Exhaust
The last thing the Z needed to actually be enjoyable to drive was an exhaust system. At some point, someone smashed the T-top, stole the sound system, and cut the cat off this poor Z31. The straight pipe sound under the car resonated so bad it was legitimately undrivable. Now that the car is more reliable than ever and looks pretty damn good too, the exhaust was holding me back from driving it more. It was starting to get pretty cold but I fabbed up a quick exhaust with a random 2.5" muffler I had laying around and some piping from the local auto parts store. It turned out to be a solid setup, the car sounds deep and performancey but also pretty quiet. Now we will see how she does with da...

If you didn't make it to the end of the "We painted the Z" video, then you missed out on this little payoff I put together. I bought this 1985 Nissan 300ZX Turbo for $1200, after putting about another $2500 or so into it... this is how it turned out. It's still missing a cat-back exhaust but lets ignore that for now LOL

The 300ZX Z31 gets a fresh paint job and looks AMAZING!

The "quick and easy" Z31 project I picked up a few months back quickly spiraled into a nightmare of chasing a million small issues along with some major tune up jobs. All of that is a distant memory now after seeing how it sits today. It's still a rusty crusty 37 year old car... but now when I park the Z, I look back and see this fantastic page of 80s car history in all its glory. Then I unlock...
Z31 300ZX digital dash LED bulb upgrade
Просмотров 3,5 тыс.2 года назад
I must have been pretty burnt out because I just realized I repeated myself like 3 times in this video LOL! Today I tackled upgrading all the burnt out bulbs in the digital dash, compass, G-force gauges, and climate controls. It looks so insane! I also proceeded to fry my new keyless entry box too, womp womp. The interior of the Z starts to go back together with some quick reupholstered door pa...
The 300ZX Z31 gets keyless entry, a stereo, and its fuel gauge power supply repaired!

After we took 3 weeks off we are back in the garage with the 1985 Nissan 300ZX Turbo making some simple improvements that make old cars like this WAY more useable IRL. First up we add a door lock actuator and keyless entry kit. Next up we tackle the fuel level power source as it had a bad connection in the connector. Then I pretty much had to wire up a new head unit from scratch! I ran new spea...
Bittersweet Halloween fun in our 2009 Honda Fit GE8

I can't resist getting some cool shots in our local graveyard during October... or the rest of the year for that matter. We have been looking to free up some cash for some new projects so we have been kicking around the idea of selling our 2009 Honda Fit GE8. I have owned this car 4 times longer than any other car I have owned, it's either sell it now or k swap it later! Follow us on Instagram ...

Finally got a legitimate test drive out of the Z! I had never done a FULL PULL in it till this video and it is finally running great! Thanks to fresh ball joints, inner and outer tie rod ends, pads and rotors front and back, timing belt, water pump, thermostat, plugs, wires, a battery, and a little love she is running better than ever! There is still a few gremlins to figure out, and a bunch of...

First drive in the Z31 300ZX Turbo but can't get into BOOST
Просмотров 2,7 тыс.2 года назад
I have been waiting to drive my 1985 Nissan 300ZX Turbo! I finally get some fresh bucket seats bolted in along with some better tires for the front. And the last piece of the puzzle was a broken intake boot on the throttle body. I have learned a bunch more about the car, it needs ball joints, tie rod ends, brake pads/rotors, and misfires under boost... Tune up is next! Follow us on instagram: J...
The Z31 300ZX gets its first wash in years. The engine bay was NASTY!
Просмотров 3,8 тыс.2 года назад
The Z seemed to be the victim of having its T-Top smashed and stereo stolen at some point. Then worse than that, it was left outside for enough time to get plenty of water damage on the seats and carpeting. A quick wash and a ton of scrubbing later and the carpet looks marginally better...

We get the 300ZX running with new hatch struts... I mean a fuel pump.

After I got a round of parts ordered and delivered I can finally dig into this 1985 Nissan 300ZX TURBO (Z31). I started by getting immediately annoyed by the blown hatch and hood struts, so I got those installed in an easy few hours of fighting, cutting, and welding. After that I was able to get the car squeezed into the garage where we threw a new fuel pump on it, flush the fuel lines and get ...
