Tommy really seems like a friend that are like one and a million! He never seems to have a negative attitude and he has a smile on his face most of the time! Good luck on you drifting your skill level has improved so much it's really inspirational to see your deadication and focus to accomplish you dreams and goals!!!!!! Keep killing it LZ!!!!!😲👽👾🤜🤛🤙🤘✌️👍👌
I’m so happy you included Kevin in the video I have been watching him ever since he came down to Florida to drive the 240s. Super cool guy and one of my fav youtubers
if anyone has been watching Adam for the past few years, you'll know that he is not into v8 swapping his 240 (unless his changed his mind about that). Really Adam's got a few options; 1) he goes with a rb (25,26,30) like everyone is saying for him to do. 2) again, goes with a jz motor (1,1.5,2) like everyone is say or. 3) HE decides by HIMSELF what he want's to swap in the 240. personally i think it would be cool if adam swapped a VQ into the 240 since his put a lot of seat time into the 350z but it up to him. keep up the great content man :)
Its awesome seeing how comfortable Adam has gotten driving over time. Just seeing how he controls the wheel now and how free but controlled he is. Keep it up man!
Yeah, if it's not the turbo feed, the head gasket is leaking coolant. Slow leaks won't send a noticeable amount of steam out the exhaust, E85 steam will mask most small coolant to cylinder gasket leaks. Do a radiator sniffer test with the block cold, then warm, a new/good gasket should show no change even cold.
I should clarify. The reason it would be his head gasket if it's not a visible leak at the turbo is because the car is overheating. And there appeared to be oil in his water a few videos back. Boosted cars typically get oil in the coolant and naturally aspirated motors typically get coolant in the oil with bad head gasket seals. Oil pressure is a lot higher in boosted cars so oil finds it's way to the low pressure coolant passages (most of the time).
^You sure it's not the other way around? Why the hell would anyone put a single cam head from an engine rated at 150hp onto a block that is capable of four times that much
I love that Adam got the 350Z, I can tell that him having that car as well as just getting better at drifting has let him get very good at tandoms. He is getting a lot closer and I love it. Great job Adam!
Already knew Kev would be there because I watched his video this morning haha, his 240 is one of my favorite builds on youtube right now, I love his attention to detail.
You're so humble adam, you straight up, I love how far you've came into the automotive world, and I'm loving the footage. Tried coming to the track last minute to see you drive but couldn't get out of work. Keep up the good work man. Great video
I did have a welded diff forever, I switched to a spool last time I was in colorado just so I could use my welded diff to make a 4.6 (which I actually sold to jimmy). Same thing
Hey Adam, just want to say I've been watching your videos since the beginning of you starting drifting and I absolutely love them. Your videos help inspire me to go out and do more fun and adventurous things. Thank you and keep up the hard work.
hey man super happy i got to see you. i was the awkward kid that legit just came up and said i always wanted to say hi to you, to which you replied "hi" lmfao. cheers man
Man you had me thinking the SR finally decided to throw a rod. If you decide to keep the SR you should think about doing that VVL head or just go 1J entirely
Sweet vids Adam, haha pressuring Kevin to go drifting but at least he got the feel of it and needs to get out of the comfort zone. Also with all these problems going on with the SR a 1.5jz would probably be your best bet. Very reliable and can hold high hp numbers with no problems.
I would have thrown that Sr out a long time ago I don't see why he makes himself headaches of keeping that thing if it's going to blow up or break no matter what
I live so close to Raceway Park, it’s so cool to see Adam drifting past the bleachers where i’ve sat and going to the Wawa where I get my coffee. Definitely need to go out next time he’s there
Dabagel100 it's pretty difficult to swap an engine designed for fwd in a rwd vehicle, I mean look at amelio's k swapped sti, that's fucking crazy how he managed that
Temps moderately high? Maybe evap is occurring a little more now that the plugs issues have been fixed? Would replacing radiator fix it? Lines and water pump the whole nine?
Get a NON VVTI 1UZ-FE,Stick a HOLSET HX52. The whole setup including engine,turbo,piping tuning and fabrication will cost like 4200$ even cheaper if you source cheap parts.It will be lighter than a jz or a rb but more reliable than the sr.ON STOCK INTERNALS.
The coolant is ether leaking onto the ground...leaking into the oil or getting burned. You would see it leaking onto the ground or around the engine bay.Maybe try jamming pieces of cardboard around where you suspect it leaking and see if it is wet after a short run.You would see the oil getting milky if it was leaking into the oil. Now if it is getting burned you would see one or 2 spark plugs cleaner then the rest and look wet plus the leaking cyl would be clean....try using a bore scope to see if any cyl are really clean compared to the rest.Easiest way I can think of to trouble shoot the lost coolant.
Cool as fuck to see kevin in the video, seeing his progression in welding and painting being shown through his hatch is crazy. Best of luck to the both of you
This is sad to hear but i get why your doing it. Hope to still see the cream z in videos in the future and look forward to see what this choice brings to the advancement of your driving
darren corbit He's said before that he wouldn't put an ls in because it's too powerful and not very much fun. Rotary would be the answer if he wanted more problems and rb is also a bit problematic!
It was sick meeting you finally. Sorry I couldn’t help find out where the coolant was going. But it was better trying to help in person than in the comments lol
dont ruin the balance of the car with a big heavy 2jz or other straight six. An aluminum ls1 will keep the car most similar to how it is now. Would also be cool with a 1uz or VQ
Floyd Frampton just look at chelsea denofa's channel. His 318ti is essentially a small body M3. Stock e36 is pretty boring to watch. That's what I drive and it's kinda dull haha
that over flow hose should not vent unless your overheating. i have mine just venting to the ground and have never had to add coolant. so if you just take an easy on it and keep the temp down and still losing coolant you got something else going on
its cool how you're still in contact with the seller of the s13
KFC Gravy ex owner's car looks like 🍎
Tommy really seems like a friend that are like one and a million! He never seems to have a negative attitude and he has a smile on his face most of the time!

Adam please take the question mark out the title and make it a statement and not a question 🤦🏽♂️
Axel Gaming look at his insta it’s confirmed he’s getting a 1uz
Kyle carroll thx
Kyle carroll wait he's going V8?
Kyle carroll nothing is "confirmed" when it comes to adam
DelTalkoh 1jz
Cmon dude the Sr is iconic in this channel like the s13 is. They always go together :(
8:44 “This is actually black” “no it’s not” lol
Dick Stroke I thought that shit was funny as fuck😂
10:31 casually drifting no hesitating en then boom white car out of nowhere
Adam at that moment: CLUTCH KICK CLUTCH KICK

Could you record more with Kevin? he seems like a really nice guy
why not go to his channel
They live too far apart
Its awesome seeing how comfortable Adam has gotten driving over time. Just seeing how he controls the wheel now and how free but controlled he is. Keep it up man!

Rooftop cam is the best. It lets us experience the angle your getting. Love it
i want to see an fully built rb30 or an 1.5jz
His built JZ is going in the S15, so you've got that to look forward to lol
Nämen tjena
Id rather seem him put a nearly stock 1jz in it or something like that not an overbuilt engine
Go watch Kalvins Garage. He's working on a rb26 w/an rb30 head, going into a kouki. Dude puts in some serious work
^You sure it's not the other way around? Why the hell would anyone put a single cam head from an engine rated at 150hp onto a block that is capable of four times that much
I love that Adam got the 350Z, I can tell that him having that car as well as just getting better at drifting has let him get very good at tandoms. He is getting a lot closer and I love it. Great job Adam!
Swapping in a NA KA?
Destin Ginnis k24 supercharged!
No Please No?! 😂
If you want reliable stock ka is where it's at
Naka lol
Best comment. Better than the V8 comments
Already knew Kev would be there because I watched his video this morning haha, his 240 is one of my favorite builds on youtube right now, I love his attention to detail.
RageAgainstTheToyMachine Thanks :). Car is filthy right now haha. Maybe we will add a hydro soon
Turbo k24.. 500hp and hood exit.. :D
zal roo I am so many kinds of down for that
It wouldn't break down as much that's for sure
You're so humble adam, you straight up, I love how far you've came into the automotive world, and I'm loving the footage. Tried coming to the track last minute to see you drive but couldn't get out of work. Keep up the good work man. Great video
All this time I thought the diff was welded
NIAtoolkit maybe crown and pinon badly worn?
NIAtoolkit that's because he has said it all the time, even in the tail of the Dragon video
to be honest, a spool feels just like a welded diff and does the same thing so it doesn't make that much of a difference
Same
I did have a welded diff forever, I switched to a spool last time I was in colorado just so I could use my welded diff to make a 4.6 (which I actually sold to jimmy). Same thing
Imagine he builds a KA-T and never has any problems and loves the power delivery? One can only hope.
Will you get an RB26DETT?
I don't think he will get one ever because all of his friends who owned one had reliability issues so that makes him not want one
unreliable just like SR
Just a guy its not unreliable here in portugal many people swapp RB's and tey last forever dont now how they blow em up
Rb is better then a 2j all day.
boost sideways Well see Adam already has a 2JZ why would he need 2?
Hey Adam, just want to say I've been watching your videos since the beginning of you starting drifting and I absolutely love them. Your videos help inspire me to go out and do more fun and adventurous things. Thank you and keep up the hard work.
Please go see Scotty cranmer!!! Ride with the boys!!! Liked and commented before I've watched the video!👌👌👌👌
Jay Good yessss
Jay Good I think Scotty was one the riders talking shit bout Adam
He’s already home
That would be sweet! Do it Adam!
BLACK SANTA why was he talking shit? What did he say?
I love how the SR sounds
First, but damn, I’m gonna partially die when Adams ditches the SR20
Xavier Ridge same here bro 😭
hey man super happy i got to see you. i was the awkward kid that legit just came up and said i always wanted to say hi to you, to which you replied "hi" lmfao. cheers man
Man you had me thinking the SR finally decided to throw a rod. If you decide to keep the SR you should think about doing that VVL head or just go 1J entirely
5:16 just by looking at Adam’s, Nicole’s and his engine bay you can definitely tell that it’s a hybrid between Adam and Nicole’s car
Kevin's car is exactly what I want my s13 to be beside color
Update. Watched the whole video now. That definitely could have been worse. I’m relieved. Hope your car holds together man.
Its been a long time coming, time to start a new chapter with this car!
Sweet vids Adam, haha pressuring Kevin to go drifting but at least he got the feel of it and needs to get out of the comfort zone. Also with all these problems going on with the SR a 1.5jz would probably be your best bet. Very reliable and can hold high hp numbers with no problems.
Dude you should rock that hat in every video. Your driving skills have been getting better keep it up.
It's definitely the help
Kevin is such a cool guy. I love his videos
Basic 2jz setup like Trevor? Maybe less power?
Lapras Trevor's car only has like 50 more horsepower. Would be super reliable which is what he needs.
I would have thrown that Sr out a long time ago I don't see why he makes himself headaches of keeping that thing if it's going to blow up or break no matter what
Daniel Alvarez i mean he probably liked the sr but i can agree with you.. an sr can only be so reliable, before hp upgrades
450 hp is really good for is driving style but what ever he go with im going to be happy cause its the 240
Id like him to do a 2j bottom end with 1 j top or whatever it is . Idk if i got those backwards
Anyone else just notice how clean Kevin’s bay and just his whole car like 👌🏽👌🏽
Nordin Jafar thanks :), it’s still a work in progress
Too bad you sold that 4.6 I built you
Junkyard Dave Jimmy Oakes is loving it though
Jarod Kemp everyone else's diff whines mine is nice and quiet. Need to get the one out together for my coup
Junkyard Dave love your channel
Pat thanks 🤗
Haha i thought it was your diff that blew up.
English town looks soo good irl.. one of my favorite tracks to run on the sim
When adam and taylor ray upload at the same time... which one to watch first
BackIntoGear Saving taylors video for the morning. so relaxing
DoctorMaddix it was a good video. Good progress
BackIntoGear Taylor’s because his was uploaded first.
Johnny Green yea a lil b4
Adam
I live so close to Raceway Park, it’s so cool to see Adam drifting past the bleachers where i’ve sat and going to the Wawa where I get my coffee. Definitely need to go out next time he’s there
Who wouldn't love driving that Platinum F250. I sure the hell would. Lol
Haven't watched your videos since my last phone broke. I just binge watched you like Netflix. Instant gratification is nice
h22a swap- fly brent and the boosted bois out :0
Dabagel100 it's pretty difficult to swap an engine designed for fwd in a rwd vehicle, I mean look at amelio's k swapped sti, that's fucking crazy how he managed that
yeah true, emilo's swap is still gonna have some of the engine sticking out of the hood :/
Dabagel100 props to him, he still managed to drop it a few inches though, that's going to be the most reliable 4 cyl subbie
just recently came across the original build log for the s13. its been through so much
RB26 inc
Adam It was nice to meet you yesterday.
I was the last guy that talk to you.
🤙🤙🤙🤙😁
Sorry Taylor
Temps moderately high? Maybe evap is occurring a little more now that the plugs issues have been fixed? Would replacing radiator fix it? Lines and water pump the whole nine?
Vq swap, already got the transmission installed...(;
Get a NON VVTI 1UZ-FE,Stick a HOLSET HX52. The whole setup including engine,turbo,piping tuning and fabrication will cost like 4200$ even cheaper if you source cheap parts.It will be lighter than a jz or a rb but more reliable than the sr.ON STOCK INTERNALS.
So your doing a rb
Monticello Thomas ew
unreliable just like SR
^ the two comments above me.
hes said rb will never happen every time a swap comes up lol
we simply cant get the parts. its the same up north the running cost is high sadly or they would be ran a lot more
The coolant is ether leaking onto the ground...leaking into the oil or getting burned.
You would see it leaking onto the ground or around the engine bay.Maybe try jamming pieces of cardboard around where you suspect it leaking and see if it is wet after a short run.You would see the oil getting milky if it was leaking into the oil.
Now if it is getting burned you would see one or 2 spark plugs cleaner then the rest and look wet plus the leaking cyl would be clean....try using a bore scope to see if any cyl are really clean compared to the rest.Easiest way I can think of to trouble shoot the lost coolant.
TIME FOR A 2J
Cool as fuck to see kevin in the video, seeing his progression in welding and painting being shown through his hatch is crazy. Best of luck to the both of you
Why does the title still have a question mark ?????
Was awesome to meet you! Hope all was well Sunday with that huge storm. My car was parked in a pond when I woke up lol
9:49 is that the 86 from progression d?
K Swap? It's lighter than a SR and a great platform for boost and doesn't have the overhang of a RB or JZ.
I hope you’re not so in love with the Z Cars that you’re gonna put a VQ in it
Justin Robinson and twin turbo it🤔
This is sad to hear but i get why your doing it. Hope to still see the cream z in videos in the future and look forward to see what this choice brings to the advancement of your driving
If I’m not mistaken, but is that ChrisFix’s car @ 7:50.
Jonnathan Morales yeah it is his truck
Jonnathan Morales you can see it better at 7:59
probably since this is ChrisFix's "home" track
Where are you guys? 4 days no vid :(
I don't do that lol Facebook only
He got that lone star drift hat lol
I think so
Lot of love from Scotland for this S13 keep up the good Videos and vibes!
Adam just needs to put a ls, rb, or a rotary in the 240. Like if you agree
Normally I would be unsure about this but I think he needs to mix it, up so I agree
darren corbit He's said before that he wouldn't put an ls in because it's too powerful and not very much fun. Rotary would be the answer if he wanted more problems and rb is also a bit problematic!
Julian Drennan I'm just trying to say he needs to mix it up a bit and get rid of the problematic sr20
darren corbit I agree but same time i don't the rotaries are mot reliable, they will give more problems than the SR
Julian Drennan rbs aren't more problematic... sigh smh learn some facts
It was sick meeting you finally. Sorry I couldn’t help find out where the coolant was going. But it was better trying to help in person than in the comments lol
dont ruin the balance of the car with a big heavy 2jz or other straight six. An aluminum ls1 will keep the car most similar to how it is now. Would also be cool with a 1uz or VQ
2 uz 🤔
You just can't beat an ls. It's cliche but it works, reliably.
You should rb25 ur cream s13
unreliable just like SR
But an rb will stay cooler than a jz
Liam Crawford But also be unreliable. And cooling is nothing if you know how to do it.
Rb30
Brennie1001 please explain how rb’s are unreliable
Dude in 8:04 behind the guy there was chrisfixs pickup truck
NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
end of an era
Sr20VET
Just have to say. You vidz are always awsum. Watching every vlog? All the way from South Africa. Keep up the great content!
Who here from Kevin Camacho's
AWESOME SEEING YOU OUT THERE CANT WAIT TILL NEXT TIME!!!
Be diffrent guy and go rb26
Eralp ANIK rbs on my channel if you want to check it out
I hope you stay with the sr thats my favorite part about this channel
For some reason I really want to see a E36 mostly stock drift build?
Floyd Frampton just look at chelsea denofa's channel. His 318ti is essentially a small body M3. Stock e36 is pretty boring to watch. That's what I drive and it's kinda dull haha
Floyd Frampton more skids has one
kevin is such an undersubscribed youtuber, his content is way better than some people with 100k+ subs
Just dont do a v8
Moto_Nerd inb4 he swap a 1uz in it lmao
I see Adam swapping engines but keeping an SR motor with the trans for a later build.
No more sr rebuild videos please!! Channel is getting stale with the same event, sr rebuild, event, sr rebuild pattern.
The dude with the pinkish widebody S13 coupe lives like a minute away from me lmao
No surprise. You keep half assing it. Have someone put it together right. Another new one you do yourself will be much of the same.
I'm a Nissan guy through and through but if you're looking for reliable, as much as it hurts to say this, go stock ls.
Bmw v10 swap
16:00 Neon Nox twisted getaway
10/10 music choice
Swap it with a 4AGE and make it rev to 11K hahahaha
Geeky Car Guy
I think a 4AGE is 1.6 liters
Rax TheMemeGod idk tbh hahaha
Rax TheMemeGod he should do a na 11K 4age with itbs
4age is a 1.6 16v
Would be good with 4G63 (still 2 litre motor) something that is unique
Your driving is getting better. It doesn't look like you're choking the car as much. 10:10 (pun semi-intended)
I dont know what it is but I really have not been interested in any content Adam has put out this whole month. I've been bored with every video.
ManMrKrazy then stop watching fool
Just so you know. I can tell you still get wheel hop. So issues are, either you don't have solid bushings, or you're suspension is too stiff.
Could be both. But I was just throwing my input
more boring in car footage
BLACK SANTA ... Yep... I just skip through all of it. It looks the exact same for every track and event
Julian Drennan To be honest the in car footage is my favorite part, and I skip the parts where he's rambling.
DANK MEMES hell yeah. How are these guys gonna pretend to care about engine talk if they don't enjoy watching them in action...
ImaDjentleman lol what just wanna the car get sideways not a steering wheel n the only in car footage we wanna see is his footwork
that over flow hose should not vent unless your overheating. i have mine just venting to the ground and have never had to add coolant. so if you just take an easy on it and keep the temp down and still losing coolant you got something else going on
Just go LS
Love the content of the 240! Can't wait to see what you drop in that bay next!!
Kevin is the man
I dont want to see the sr go tbh yours sounds so good and it's a iconic piece of the car even if you have to get a new block
Your driving/drifting is so smooth man, love watching your in car footy! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
hi adam im irish and in ireland "diffing" is illegal street drifting on public roads but its mostly just donuts
Eoin Nilo y'all got your own pro series. There's plenty of tracks and pro level drivers.
