Man it's great to see this back on the channel. Time to bring it back to former glory!
i absolutely dig the engine bay color and flake. all for color matched bays, but i’d keep it
Big fan of the s13 glad you're bringing it back you said to hit you up about those seats what are you asking for them ?
Super glad to see you smiling, working on the 240, and making the content that you truly want. Keep moving forward brother!!
Best s13 there was, the blue was cool, but I think she definitely needs to be ah3 again, such a clean, iconic color! Also, look for a 20 neo! The head flows way better, and the added benefit of vtc is a game changer. Also, they’re way(well, a little) cheaper than a standard det
I love the GTR but everyone whos an OG can agree we all missed the hatch. Love this car brotha so glad you kept er.
YYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!! Back to the old days when I first started watching your videos
Few mins into the video and i just wanna say im sooo glad ur going back to AH3 red!!
Yesssssirrr i been around from way back with this thing
The last time I remember seeing this car it had a running RB , a complete clean interior and looked pristine on the exterior
Awwww yeah. More 240 action. This is how i found you. Keep me motivated working on my own.
Can’t wait to see the car back to its glory days excited for the content
So stoked to see the S13 back getting worked on!!!!
I gotta say it’s amazing to see you happy again and back in the s13!!!!!! Already ready for the next ep!
Bro that car is so nostalgic for me because i love watching your old video of you doing little things to it all the time
I'm super excited for the s13 build! what a trio of cars.
I remember watching a RicerMiata video years ago and he came across you and the 240 before the color swap! You had just gotten it together at the time! Man the years have flown by
Loved that car back in the day. Can't remember what the first video of it I saw was but I do remember always seeing the clip of that car doing the burnout at the start
Hey dude! I've been watching since you first bought the Z as an NA auto all those years ago and I'm making the switch from warehouses to working in a shop and going to school. You are an inspiration and I hope you blow up and are able to make a living off content.
Love to see this, I’m also in the middle of bringing my hatch back to life!
hell yeah can't wait to start working on my car again
Yo never stop showing off how nice that door closes. So satisfying every time 😮💨🤌🏾
agreed, for value of these shells, daily driver for sure!
10:01 i now vouch for a "shrimple style" kalvin slap sticker. I would put that on all of my cars lol
You've been at the grind! 🎉 despite Upstates weather today and so on... it is GRIND TIME! 🤟🏻 time to get my Z prepped for paint
You should definitely keep the seats u currently have-the corbeaus! Nothings wrong with them and they look cool!
Roadtrip in Europe would be fantastic!
YAAAASSSSSS THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR!! Im leaving 5 comments on every 240 vid!!!
Pumped to see how this turns out. I also should dust off the 240 and start driving it again. 🤣
Bring it back to its former glory, before the blue even happened. When you said you've had it since 2013, it just made me realize I've been following the channel for that long. Still remember the crusty s14 days and the home garage vids.
Great to see you working on the s13 again. You were the reason i bought mine 4 years ago over here in the uk. Still collecting parts for my rb20 swap though 😅
The GTR is an awesome car man, and an all out project will be so rewarding at the end. But from experience, having a simple but fun clean car to cruise and work with is the best also. Do it, man. Bring the 240sx back. I'm working to get mine there, KA-T, 300zx TT 5 speed swap, the whole 9. I've been watching your content since the beginning and the 240 was the whole reason. You're an inspiration for my s13 build. I'll shoot you progress as I see yours. Get after it brother!
Ps. I'm a big fan of sparco anything on 90s jdm. I'm gonna run the sparco R100 reclining street seats in mine. Simple but period correct, IMO
Glad to see this car back, its so iconic to us. Plz keeo the seats you have, they fit the car so well. Plz bring back the purpe ice crean paint you had in the bay before. Rb20 or 25 would be awesome but they are getting expensive. Keep up the fantastic work Kalvin!!
I wish i could send my opel Kadett E gsi to u but that would be difficult considering im in South Africa XD
I'm soo excited for this build bro❤!!!!!! AND AH3 WILL BE SOO GOOD
Im more stoked on this than the skyline 😅
Kalvin has been going hamon man
Hell yeah, keep grinding bro. Stoked to see this.
Clean oem style with possibly a quality lip kit.
I can't wait to see your S13 back on the road man, glad you're doing just a street car. Keep it clean my friend👌🏼
The old setup 🔥
Missed this car
Let's go 🎉
Glad to see the 240 getting some love!
Yesssss let's go! I miss this car man! 🎉
Miss this car..... still finishing my rb20.
Was going to send you a oem side mount intercooler vent for your pig nose years ago when you hole sawed yours.
There standard on the uk turbo models with c18. then you type x it so never mentioned it.... Still got it and a pig nose to go with it and the lip from the rs model 😂horder🙈. Good to see the 13 getting some love! 👌🏼
I wish you we're in Florida,🙏
definitely keep this car as street car!
Yes. Yess! YESSSS!!!!
Love the big crazy builds and swaps but i love watch small and simple upgrades and the attention to detail.
Man this car inspired me to do so much on my s13 back in the day. You were the reason I did the CTSV brake swap. I’m hype to see it back to the original AH3. I completely agree with keeping it a street car for sure. I can also appreciate your way of building a car because it’s the same way I would be building a car from a budgeting standpoint.
yes!! i think this was the car that got me into youtube auto channels! so glad youre bringing it back!
Keep it as a street car!
Yes, please more s13 content😊😊😊
Some dark red/black Recaro SPJJ would be siiiiick with the red paint. RB25 Neo would be a cool and efficient swap
Can’t wait to see it back in maroon with an RB 26
So nice to see this s13 again, your videos on the RB in this is what helped me with my RB swap. Excited to see this come back!
So happy to see the 240 back, very happy to see you pushing on and bringing us these great videos.
Kalvin awesome making the 240 great again glad to see you are things finally getting back on the road with the seats I would stay with the seats that you got to save the money. Factory seats are hard to come bye for that or the confetti seats are too darn expensive I understand sometimes you need a break it gets to maintain working on one car all the time you need to change it to get a clear head to proceed. Keep up the great contact buddy. 👍🏼😊🤙🏽🙏🏽❤️
Oh my god I love you for bringing this gem back! SUPER excited just seeing you clean it up a bit. Gosh it brings back some nostalgia.
One request I have for now, just one... Please put on the OEM headlights back in, these cyborg looking ones look weird.
100% agree on headlights lol
@KalvinMalli heck yeah!
Keen to see this back on the street! RB20 for the nostalgia would be mint. 👌
How are your cats doing man?
Rust is literally to a minimal here 😂🔥
Its funny. Your s13 is honestly the car that got me into s13s. Ive been dying to see you give some attention to it. Also if you're considering putting something in until you find the right engine why dont you go back to your original idea and put a junkyard 5.3 or something like a K series? Im pretty sure with your skills you could definitely do a super budget K swap.
This will be interesting
lets go!!!
schassis time
yes please rb, and make it super detailed, that way i know if im missing anything on mine xD you might save my car lol
Always impressed by your ability to hope between builds. Can’t wait to see how the 240 turns out!
Dude u should BN kit the 240 would look dope asf with a different colour love the content btw
AH3 hell yeah 😎
A super clean street OEM plus S13 would be cool. 🤔🛠🔰
The rb20 is the way to go. Higher revs solid block. its a no brainer
Ouuuu lets go! ❤
Not bad! I need to get my 89 hatch back on the road. Its been sitting since 2016. :-/
I think you should do a nice restoration. Get it as OEM as possible. OE+. Thats what i did with my 240SX. SR20DET swap with minimal upgrades. T28 Spec R turbo, Greddy FMIC, Nismo injectors, Z32 MAFS.
I should make a video of it for my channel.
Kind of loved the pig nose became iconic for the car
300zx deep dish looks clean on 240
Dude!!! Get with Jimmy Oakes... he has motors stacked on top of motors. He pulled a rd25de from his r34 maybe you two can collaborate on this? I would love to have you build my 240 but $ is to a minimum. Lol😂😂😂
I would get the Bride seats with the arm rest. shit would be pimp relax mode and plus like no one has done that yet. I think they got like 2 different models like that.
Keep the ones you have. They looked to be I pretty good shape, and if you’re doing just a street build you might want to think about a comfortable ride as well as performance.
240 content is gonna be so good
Wish I could smash the like button so hard it breaks
Hey man I got a rb25 s2 block and an rb20 trans, block is complete but sold the head other than that got everything for the motor besides the head and hot side
240sx is back 🎉🎉🎉
I’m about to scoop up a 240 now 😅
Bass boat competition 😂😂😂😂
recaro pole positions would be great in the s13!
Rust is actually to a minimum on the 240? lol, so excited for the build and yea im thinkin RB too bro
Let’s gooooooi
Hey bro, there's pig nose, shark nose and after market bumpers for cheap in Maryland.
Yh i think u should keep it as a street car,but also please put it to the test on a track one day
All for that!
Hey Kalvin, what product do you recommend for underbody coatings.
Not gonna lie, would have loved to see this with a 5.3 in it
bring back the good CA18DET to life ! it's a good engine and nobody is trying to build one, also could be a good content for the channel .
@itsmikelake just built one and put it in a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo replica RWD converted car.
Definitely keep the 13 as a street car she doesn't deserve to be ruined
Put the RB & gearbox in from your R32 GTR and source/build a new RB & sequential transmission for the GTR worthy of the restoration.
You should do a sill80 conversion, you don't ever see those.
i wanna see a full "type x" kit on it. also I hate those headlights
R32 seats in the s13!
If I were you I'd put together the Rb26 from the gtr in the S13 and sort it out. Your R32 is a long ways from being on the street.
You might as well start getting something back from all that money you've spent on it. You'll enjoy it, and get views too.
I got some hatch plastics down in Florida that I’d be willing to ship for you, a good price.
Put a Sr20 in!! Please !!
This car was so nice, how did this happen. Lol
I still say u should continue with the ls swap. That would be cooler.
