Such a rad dude! Who would have guessed two or three years ago that you would be taking apart engines or cylinder heads without a pro present, or removing the engine or trans. As a car enthusiast, with no desire to skate nor issues with watching it, it has been nice to watch how you have changed
That is what they have done with the latest Formula 1 cars the 2 smaller pipes next to the exhaust are from the waste gate also on the Mercedes Project One.
Dual shims is literally just 2 shims with the slots in them instead of one flat one and one slotted one. Bit late now, but you know now incase rocker arms keep popping off. RAS reduce the chance of rockers popping off but when they do it makes more of a mess, because the rocker arms get jammed between the RAS and the cam. Snaps them and damages the cam. Experienced both with and without at 400hp and definitely found it better without 👍🏻
Just went through the exact same thing. My rocker stoppers pushed my rocker arm into the valve stem and held it open, punched the valve into the piston real nice
All these Super Mechanics that keep commenting blaming Alberto stating you should BUY BUY BUY are only there to troll. It is your car your money Alberto is a competent Mechanic you are learning loads from him and others about a car that takes one hell of a lot of abuse every time you drift, the way you noticed the tick from the lifter and stripped it and fixed it is admirable. The car onced tuned sounded fantastic and the speed of the rev increase is well fast and you are right the sound is RX7.
why is everyone so quick to complain about a repeated clip? What is he perfect?? Come on. The cars amazing and this much work put into that 240 deserves more respect than some clip vigilantes. relax and appreciate the man
I'm a master mechanic of 12 years. You worry too much about the youtube warriors out there. Alberto is a EXTREMELY talented mechanic. I would actually love to meet him one day. My point is this, how many of your viewers could identify a shim feeler gauge from a micrometer.
Elboost The struggle and the mental pains when doing big jobs like this takes you on a rollercoaster ride for sure. Add lack of sleep to that and you have that moment when you can start act like your 10 year old. I seen it many times and all you can do is sleep or have friends that stand tall. A interesting side note i also noticed: Good mechanics can swear or be silent, but never react like somebody "less experienced", always keeping a cool head. The car world have its own psychological frustrations is what im trying to say here i guess. I been on that frustration train my self and man its hard 😊
I know what your saying ive been there and done that but is what i was trying to point out is im happy he stayed true through all the trouble. Thanks for the nice reply tho ;)
I’ve been running my ecumaster emu on my 1j for about a year now and love it. I also lost the barb on my radiator cap thing. Tried the tap route. Didn’t work. Then I ordered a new cap and bung and welded it on. It leaked a little. So I cut that out and welded a plate where that used to be. Now I’m running my rad cap inline with my upper hose.
So happy to see you happy and satisfied with your car, you have put so much time into it and I can not imagine how that thing feels to drive. Congrats man you are going to tear it up in that thing.
"cream corn" is perfect since it's running on e85 and on the radiator overflow, just torque a new barb into it, it's aluminum and soft enough, and doesn't really need to be a perfect seal
“You don’t get power from aftermarket ECU” (paraphrased) That’s extremely false. Most old style aftermarket ECU’s are only 16 bit processors. The factory ECU in your car would’ve been an 8 bit processor. 98% of high-end stand-alone ecu’s are 32 bit processors. To the average joe that just sounds like mumbo jumbo. But when your ECU can handle a much broader, and FINER map than the old style, and it processes input/outputs TWICE, sometimes FOUR TIMES, as fast as the current ECU, you gain more power. There are guys picking up over 100hp going from a standard 16 bit ECU to 32 bit ECU’s.
Chuckie25 But Adam "just wants to drive the car". He just wants to drivethe car, so he doesn't finally put a normal engine (that is not an sr20 and actually makes good power without breaking), he won't put in a good transmission and he won't get an aftermarket cpu...
Good stuff!!! Could always go speed density and get the MAF out of there. Would clean it up even more and expose the compressor to help peel that corn :)
Stoked for you to have the 240 running again Adam hopefully you have the SR back in soon and I cant wait for you to have the CD09 so that you can stop breaking transmissions
After all that fuel dilution I'd definitely run a break in oil or anything with no detergents to make sure your rings seat properly. Gas can leave a film on the sleeves.
my sr has lasted me for 3 years now 3 track days last year and countless times fooling around on the street its also my daily try replacing oil more often than every 10,000 kms and dont put on shit parts?
RedShiftJellyfish No offense but bragging that your engine has survived 3 years of use as a daily + spirited driving + 3 track days in a year isn't much of a benchmark. By that standard my 13BT is a unicorn, engine is original from 1990, just over 150,000km on the clock (low for it's age I know). In the 10 years I've owned it it was my daily for 4 years and averaged 12-15 track day events a year for the last 8 years and the motor still runs healthy, it's everything else that's wearing out at this point :D
SR sounds AMAZING !!! 🔥 Did you secretly put a rotary with SR cover & hide it from us all? haha 😂😂😂 18:45 You think merging lanes in a truck is hard? Try driving here in Malaysia, no matter what vehicle you drive people will not let you merge except few really nice people. & yeah with your indicators on!!!
Armour Shooter I drive a semi and Dallas Texas is the worst about merging in the US as far as I’m concerned put on your blinker and if you don’t cut them off or almost get in an accident you’ll never get over.
Hydraulic lifters are part of the sr rocker arm problem, with solid lifters properly adjusted there is less chance of having excessive clearance (lifter not doing their job perfectly). Rocker arm stoppers are also not worth while, its usually better to let the rocker move around then get wedged between the cam or other moving parts doing more damage. Otherwise, new set up sounds sick man! Looking forward to next drifting vids!
Lifter tick happens when the lob on the camshaft is pushing on the lifter (when the the car is turned off) pushing the oil out of the lifter making it tick next time the car runs it doesn’t happen while the car is running. Keep up the good work I am loving the vids.👍
So much respect when you started playing UNDEROATH! Easily my fave band of all time from all the way over in Australia and was able to see them live in February! Keep up the good work man! love your vids!
I'm stoked that you're stoked!
It's crazy how much you and this car have been through in the past 2 years!
we need some blue under glowwwwwwwwww
no
lol
SIMPLYBEAST1231 wym no he had red before
Manny De La Cruz low key we need to bring back underglow
Such a rad dude! Who would have guessed two or three years ago that you would be taking apart engines or cylinder heads without a pro present, or removing the engine or trans. As a car enthusiast, with no desire to skate nor issues with watching it, it has been nice to watch how you have changed
Been waiting for this all day. That new turbo sounds insane.
Is it ever an Adam LZ video if it doesnt have 2 duplicate clips?
TheHickiesFTW I thought I was tripping. This happens all the time and just assume it’s me but now I know
Adams been editing while sleep deprived again 😂
No he just really wants E85 lmao
Either that or he his high
Tyler Travis Same 😂😂😂😂😂
The external waste gate to atmosphere was a great choice! Sounds epic
That is what they have done with the latest Formula 1 cars the 2 smaller pipes next to the exhaust are from the waste gate also on the Mercedes Project One.

Mayhem Inc good schematix
Mayhem Inc we want the evo back, and will beef ever finish his car.... stay tuned!
Just went through the exact same thing. My rocker stoppers pushed my rocker arm into the valve stem and held it open, punched the valve into the piston real nice
breaking srs bad schematix
Mayhem Inc when the new video coming
Holy shit the new build sounds so incredible. By far my favorite sounding SR20 for sure. I love it.
Michael Bacon I heard this sr in Japan that had a titanium exhaust with long tube headers that sounded insane
it sounds better on 85
Go look at jimmys
Ismael Mendoza ah you beat me to it jimmys is gonna sound amazing

i agree with this comment
Thanks!
i also agree with this comment even if it makes no sense to agree
The shot of the car at 16:02 is sick as hell 👌
you know the car Is loud when the sound breaks the mic 🤣
why is everyone so quick to complain about a repeated clip? What is he perfect?? Come on. The cars amazing and this much work put into that 240 deserves more respect than some clip vigilantes. relax and appreciate the man
TheKenman88 You just said something important tho
TheKenman88 I know man like he put a lots of work into all his cars
We’re just saying so he doesn’t make the same mistake
It’s so odd tho never seen it happen before
That is an angry sounding sr!
Wow you can actually hear the turbo 👌🐌
It kinda sounds like a 13B, dope af
I thought the old set up sounded great, but the noises it makes now are breath taking, by far favorite sr build
I noticed the coollent overflow Starbucks cap is missing
rick is a savage 87 he showed that it wasnt fitting great so he took it off and is gonna fiddle with it
Let’s not forget that Mia still needs a new paint job
Hector Garcia I’ve been waiting on it too buddy👌🏻
And a turbo
And a jacuzzi in the garden
Same.
Sell that piece of shit instead
Please fix the loose garage door insulation, it’s driving me crazy! Love your videos!
NaXen it annoys me too lol
same
Yes! Please!
Yes i agree
YES

Rx7nator you’re not much of a master if you think Alberto is a good mechanic
It's quite obvious you have no idea on what you're talking about. Have fun being a keyboard warrior.
Alberto knows his shit. Disprove me with facts or dont argue.
SR's are seriously one of the most underrated engines this just shows a sick example of that
So sick Adam! Super happy to see you stoked on your first drive! Congrats my guy!
Krispy Media ayeee krispy!
Krispy x Adam LZ feature 😍
Isaiah Francis there was already one...
Niall Corcoran yeah but he didn't have a traditional street feature
Dad notice me :)
"Only 22 psi"
I was hoping at least 30.
jk
thats enough for that engine and it was rebuild twice so 22psi is enough
22 pound made 415hp on my standard sr with a gtx3071, 24 made 450hp
Ryan but your right
Haha right, like already 4 over what is safe yet thinks it can take way more
Love how you actually get stuff done unlike Tj
I really respect the amount of hard work that went into finishing you rebuild. You really went the extra mile trying to get this done so quickly.
Because off your video's I don't sleep to
Has a lift..but still lays under his car 🤘
It's a nice place to chill :D
"Im gonna go jz if one more thing happens" 4 hours later "OMG THE POWER THE TORQUE I CANT STOP SMILING"

Did anyone else notice the clip repeat?
happens quite often, even in albertos videos
First time I noticed it, I thought RUclips was glitching
He does it on purpose
Michael Hamburgo yeah
yeah, it happens on a lot of his videos, but I think he does it on purpose

i'm glad you kept the factory intake mani. i love the torque curve and the rotary sound.
next vid: Nicole in a bathtub of creme corn...
flatlinesup when
Lol
so the peanutbutter bath was on the wrong channel then?
flatlinesup exactly bro, these people haven’t been around long enough to know what they’re talkin about.
I’ll be in my bunk
adam only needs 109k for 2 million lets gooooooooooooooooooooo
Edit: he will hit it sooner than you think😎
That smoke ring she blew at 9:48 😍😍
That was lit 😂
Good spot!!
235i bmws do it when its piss cold outside
So happy to see you happy and satisfied with your car, you have put so much time into it and I can not imagine how that thing feels to drive. Congrats man you are going to tear it up in that thing.
Thumbs up if Adam should throw slicks on the 240 for a night and drag race it
jacob k. He’d break it
crazy, always thought sr's sound horrible but this one sounds so mad! love it
Back at it again with the double clips. Its ok Adam. Were all human.
Sr20 is secretly a rotary. That idle tho
And now it actually sounds like one...
Same reliability as a rotary haha
issa rotary undercover 🙄
Why is the car right hand drive in the thumbnail? Someone please explain.
EthanM244 bro wtf how did you notice that
He probably reversed the image when he made the thumbnail
Listen to bobles..
Exacly
His wheel is quick release and he happen to put it up on the dash while they prepped the dyno
It was so worth the sleepless night's, digging the new sound of the 240 Adam
Adam, please, take some days off and spend them with Nicole.
I was gunna say the same take some days of and just go out to dinner and spend time with her
Ahahahahahahahahahaha you guys are actual classic funniest shit I've read in a while
what about the name cream pie?
Change the plate to "CREAMY" 🙌🏻
CORN.
ROTARY
Brandon Flicek nope, he has a CT antique plate thats leagues cooler. And creamy sounds really weird
FRAPPE
Niall Corcoran lol that's the point it's funny ahah but he does have a cool plate
It actually sounds sick!!! and it seems like it rips aswell as soon as you step on it. Stoked for you Adam!
It makes me so happy to see her running again
Yeah #teamnosleep!
I tought lost royalty already had this name??
#Teamnosleep #creamcorn
lol @ the section in the beginning where you repeated the same clip twice. you're tired, dude. get some decent sleep.
Street Lethal Garage for real
#teamnosleep lol jk
"cream corn" is perfect since it's running on e85
and on the radiator overflow, just torque a new barb into it, it's aluminum and soft enough, and doesn't really need to be a perfect seal
Those equal length headers make the SR sound so good!
1. Got outta school
2. Open RUclips
3. See adams video
4. Made my day☺
I'm a fan of these 2 day videos it shows a lot more progress than your normal videos
Your cams sound like a rotary. Mrep mrep mrep mrep
PrivateFox haha it does!
PrivateFox mrep mrep mrep mrep mrep merrrrrrrrrrAAAAAAAAPPPPP Stustustustustustu
10:57 and until the turbo stops spooling 😍😍😍
Instead of Cream Corn how about *Metal Maize* 😏 bit of a play on words
Sam
you did this quick haha still waiting for TJ to finish his 350 that he started 4 months ago lol no hate
Car is RHD in the thumbnail
Lmao
MMT25
It is lol, I wondered why something seemed off
Ikr Adam wanna be jdm
I didn’t know that until I known
MMT25 wait wtf whoa why is it like that
mirrored the picture, he probably just thought it looked better facing a different direction
why its sounds like a freaking 1000hp ROTARY ON THE DYNO ?!

TeRyx HQ he's getting a transmission it's just not here yet
If your tuner doesn't know how to tune on them they are useless
the deja vu is real with this edit at 1:14
Glad the car is running and tuned.
Audi R8 Red is also very cheap coil pack upgrade, but I understand, you'll go Japanese...
Lmao the fact he said the liscence plate number 😂😂
9:48 his car blew a smoke ring
Good stuff!!! Could always go speed density and get the MAF out of there. Would clean it up even more and expose the compressor to help peel that corn :)
Adam without the stache is weird now
I enjoyed every single minute of this video!
George Altezza besides that double clip 😉
Novaticz haha was about to say that
It sounds like a deep sounding Rotary
I bought VEMS ecu for 300€ (~300$) and for my 1.3 4 banger turbo is enough. Sequential injection, ignition, and other goodies
When adams drift car makes more power than TJ’s brz
Will Adams s15 make more power that tjs 350z
Stoked for you to have the 240 running again Adam hopefully you have the SR back in soon and I cant wait for you to have the CD09 so that you can stop breaking transmissions
SR sounding like a rotary now
i commented this before you said it in the video haha whoops
Just be careful on not blowing up this engine because it’s fresh
Let THE CREAM CORN RISE!!!!!!!!
Love the sound of this build!😁😁😁 Never really liked how it used to sound.
So awesome that you're so hyped about it.
After all that fuel dilution I'd definitely run a break in oil or anything with no detergents to make sure your rings seat properly. Gas can leave a film on the sleeves.
A big baller ecu is gonna make you'r car run better, you can only do so much with a stock ecu dude
The new blow off valve sounds sick
Sr20? It sounds like a 13b....
The SR20 lives.........
To blow up another day
ER33 well you all should stop wasting money on srs then cuz there are plenty of engines that take a beating for years...rb,jz,ls
my sr has lasted me for 3 years now
3 track days last year and countless times fooling around on the street
its also my daily
try replacing oil more often than every 10,000 kms and dont put on shit parts?
RedShiftJellyfish
No offense but bragging that your engine has survived 3 years of use as a daily + spirited driving + 3 track days in a year isn't much of a benchmark.

You can really see he is so happy! Congrats Mr. LZ
Dude this thing sounds so much like a rotary that's super weird
Revive an sr20 is a rotary
anti clikb8 I hope you're joking
anti clikb8 no it isnt
anti clikb8 you're thinking of a 2j ;)
Get a rotary, no more valve's, and lifters, and shims, and shit :D But that turbo noise.... love it. And it sounds sick
GeenIdee2 valves and shim arent that bad compared to apex seals
You know I was sarcastic right? But besides that, apex seals don't give problems unless you fuck them up.
GeenIdee2 the s20 sounds like a rotary but it isnt lools
New name: Cream Pie
Run the intake through the pass side bay area and use a huge cylindrical K and N behind the bar. Works great and gets fresh air
That thing sounds amazing, hope it holds up.
Creamed corn is amazing
Also Adam, if you twincharge it the SR will fully sound like a 13b on throttle. At least from the front.
I've been watching you through this whole build and I'm stocked for you that it worked out really well. The car looks and sounds great. Good job :)
*Sr20 braps*
Can I just drive it through a tunnel? 😭
SR sounds AMAZING !!! 🔥 Did you secretly put a rotary with SR cover & hide it from us all? haha 😂😂😂
18:45 You think merging lanes in a truck is hard? Try driving here in Malaysia, no matter what vehicle you drive people will not let you merge except few really nice people. & yeah with your indicators on!!!
Armour Shooter I drive a semi and Dallas Texas is the worst about merging in the US as far as I’m concerned put on your blinker and if you don’t cut them off or almost get in an accident you’ll never get over.
As a Malaysian, I can confirm that is true
Merging in a truck is easy. You just have to be a little aggressive about it
Armour Shooter the secret is not putting in your blinkers so they don’t know your coming you could never let them know what your going to do
It really does sound like a Rotary. Was thinking that the entire video. Sick build man!
Hydraulic lifters are part of the sr rocker arm problem, with solid lifters properly adjusted there is less chance of having excessive clearance (lifter not doing their job perfectly). Rocker arm stoppers are also not worth while, its usually better to let the rocker move around then get wedged between the cam or other moving parts doing more damage. Otherwise, new set up sounds sick man! Looking forward to next drifting vids!
wow it does sound like a rotory
Race Life probably the cams
Now you have a Rotary sounding 240 and Rb26 sounding 335i😂
His 335i sounds like a mix of an RB26 and a 2JZ.
At about 1:20 yall put in the same clipp twice
Dejavu....
Ov3rwatch M3M3R69 he pulled an all nighter just live with it lols
Lifter tick happens when the lob on the camshaft is pushing on the lifter (when the the car is turned off) pushing the oil out of the lifter making it tick next time the car runs it doesn’t happen while the car is running. Keep up the good work I am loving the vids.👍
So much respect when you started playing UNDEROATH! Easily my fave band of all time from all the way over in Australia and was able to see them live in February! Keep up the good work man! love your vids!
That is not a normal Sr right there...
17:22 best part of vid
