Anyone else notice how much better Johan is getting at explaining what's going on?? He also seems much more comfortable in front of the camera - love to see it 👏
I just love the quality of the videos in the new shop. The lights are amazing, all the new builds, Johan is so on point & makes everything look so awesome, the sound quality is tops & of course Adams enthusiasm & charisma is addicting and it shows with everyone that works around him. I have been excited for each new video to post, keep it up everyone, I thank you all for your efforts and the enjoyment.
I love the difference in ability adam has. Like one minute he's wrenching on an engine looking confident then goes to do "home repairs" and is absolutely lost. Fan fucking tastic lol
I cannot get enough of these videos. I've always wanted to "build" my own car but sadly, my financial status does not support a project car. At least, watching you guys building cars helps a little bit with the frustration of not being able to work on my own one. Love your videos. Keep it up!
I’d be totally happy to see more technical videos of Johann’s thought processes on fabrication as he definitely is thorough and understands things need access for maintenance. He would be a solid mentor!
Great vlog. Loving the longer format. Johan is awesome. Getting better all the time at speaking in front of the camera. Can’t wait to see the full rebuild of the r32 GTR.
Congrats guys on keeping the shop clean, organized, and efficient. Being organized is the key to driving them instead of repairing and or replacing the expensive parts you didn't install properly. Half the DIY builds that aren't finished are because builders are unorganized and have no plan, budget, etc. A good idea for high-performance street and track vehicles is to do what NASA does, after the final assembly or as they call it "Closeout", take a photo of the position of the finished part, assembly, fluid level, etc. I recommend using a paint marker on critical fasteners, oil, fuel, coolant lines, filters, Fill and drain bolts, etc. to verify they were torqued, secured, and filled with fluids.. Tearing up your new Strange engineering 9 inch Ford differential / Gearvender overdrive isn't a good day.
The heat sink having peaks and valleys makes it have more surface area than just a straight bar at least 200% I imagine. That is straight genius! Little touches like that are what sets companies apart, You knowing that I give you mad props, stay humble, all of you. LZ stay out the weeds!
Gotta love have a fooking genius on your team. I’d sell everything I have and move in a minutes notice to be able to work with such a knowledgeable team.
PRO TIP for Adam LZ home improvements. Put your bit through the center of a paper plate and then drill your hole in the roof. Saves the trouble of holding the box and catches the dust waayyyyy better.
The fins on the inter cooler Johan was taking about, the main benefit of it being like that is to maximize surface area with the added benefit of increasing the total airflow
idk if it’s just me but i really miss seeing adam send a car out like the 240 or even the chaser and just getting doors. this stuff is definitely interesting, just liked the drifting simple videos with his friends.
I’m checking in after a minute of not watching. Dude I’ve been around since the peppers. 🤟🏻 This is what RUclips is all about. Thank you for this experience. It’s keeping me on Track+.
Notifications Gang! Edit: can’t wait for the CT squad to be here again! Been loving the vibe the videos lately. Feels like when I was 15/16 watching you for the first time Adam.
That dudes a joke, he has very poor judgment on an extremely important part of tuning. Knock detection is the most important thing to monitor when tuning and he has Mike looking to see if he hopefully notices puffs of smoke or not... Especially on pump gas, loves pump gas nonetheless...
@@Brother2Jis_27s4 Hi, Brother 2J, I'm "That dude". And you're absolutely right. Knock detection is the most important thing to monitor. I usually tune with a stand alone per cylinder knock detection system. However after years of use, it finally died. I informed Adam about it, but he wished to continue with the tune. Here is a link of how I use that system when I tuned Tavarish's twin turbo Lambo. ruclips.net/video/6enoipq1U6E/видео.html Since I didn't have it in this case, I asked Mike visually check the back of the car. Now you may be wondering why I didn't monitor knock through the ECU. Thats a good question. The Link, just like any other stand alone is a universal ECU, does not have knock control is not active or calibrated right out the box. Nothing is set. No center frequency, no activation thresholds, no gains are set, nothing. Now I know the center knock frequency for an 86mm bore is 6.7 KHz and the second harmonic is 13.4 KHz. But I don't know what harmonic to use without using my stand alone knock detection equipment. I would have to intentionally knock the engine. And for obvious reasons I didn't want to do that. Furthermore, the original knock sensors on Nissans from that era were ignored by the OEM ECUs past 4k rpm because the signal to noise ratio of those old style sensors were that bad. So because the OEM sensor is so bad at it's job and given what I had to work with, I would trust Mike's visual observation over the knock sensors that Nissan them selves ignore past 4k rpm any day. Again, you are right. Knock is the most important thing to monitor when tuning an engine. I was just working with what I had. Thank you for the opportunity to explain in more detail :)
@@erik_cruz I think like most things on RUclips and other social media thevideo didn't give the best context. Realistically the timing numbers weren't shared so I don't know how conservative it was or safe it may have been. I believe, also not knowing the context of what conversation that took place, that I would have postponed the dyno session or any real tuning until a better detection system was in place. But that is also not knowing if you had 32 degrees in it or 3 degrees... I think if you get the opportunity in the future you should get a chance to explain the context of what happened. I do apologize for being harsh, I'm not sure if anyone else realized that what was going on could have been seen as reckless given the context of what was portrayed on video...
If you have access to the attic above that room go up there and put two 2x6s flat against the sheet rock screwed in from the sides with 3 1/2 inch deck screws then you can run your TV mounting lag bolts right into that wood from below.
I don't expect to ever expect to see you on fh5 myself, but I will say tandems on there are quite fun. I am also hoping that your new fd car ends up in that game officially at some point! Also the funny bit where Johan was tossing the steering wheel was hilarious
If you want good drywall plugs you should get the steel anker ones the have a umbrella that gets opend up when you screw the bolts in to it. They are way more reliable than the normal plugs you used
Kinda of an unseen and semi unspoken thing about weight reduction, wires are heavy AF. Taking out systems like ABS, cruise control, etc. you can lighten a car by a pound or two up to 10+. Doing a vq swap on my s30, my dad and I took out airbag wiring, cruise control, automatic transmission, and stock speaker wiring. Estimated weight saved is around 11.5lbs
Anyone else notice how much better Johan is getting at explaining what's going on?? He also seems much more comfortable in front of the camera - love to see it 👏
Johan is the best. I wish he'd have even more camera time expaining stuff.
love when adam makes johan use the camra like you say he getting better an the man is brain box
crazy what professional on screen training can do
Johan is my favorite.
He's getting so good on camera fast
So stoked to see even more of Johann enlightening us with his mechanical genius!!!
Agreed!!!
Agreed , but he needs to start wearing some gloves and long sleeves when welding. Those UV rays are not very healthy for your skin.
I enjoy watching him work, his welds are insane.
@@nomad7991
“ no ma’am CD

We need more out-of-context clips like the one of Johan just throwing that steering wheel up and down while looking through the window.
And Collette with her Inspector Gadget jacket.
I agree! Weird random shit like that is always funny.
SePå FAAN!'!!!

Don’t think I’ve seen a chaser built with this much care before.. they usually don’t get enough TLC
I mean the race cars in Japan get a TON of attention, but that’s a different kind of tlc 😂
There are some beautiful chasers in the UK and Ireland
Welcome to the lz builds lmao
@@Matt_Lanzer_13 Not really, most racecars over there are hacked together with off the shelf stuff
@@ollie786 uhhhh have you seen half the fd Japan builds? Theyre mental with all the custom work and fancy parts... hardly “hacked together”😂
NGL the polished intercooler piping and Polished engine cover looks amazing together can't wait to see the car done

The amount of blitz 03’s this man has is just insane
Just like tj hunt😂
I’d be totally happy to see more technical videos of Johann’s thought processes on fabrication as he definitely is thorough and understands things need access for maintenance. He would be a solid mentor!
Johan is to Adam what Josh is to TommyFyea. These dudes are LEGENDS in their own right.
I was standing behind Adam at a subway n Fl i don’t think he saw me he ripped a fart thinking no one was behind him. Smelled like greatness.
I really hope this is true 😂😂
Adams got over 20 cars, you think he'd be catching the sub?
@@JohnDoeC78 he said "at a subway" so my guess is he was getting a sandwich
@@JohnDoeC78 you think there’s actual subways in Florida? Lol
@@JohnDoeC78 r/woosh
Johan is so good at what he does! I would love for him to be my mentor, master, boss! Hahaha
Hey Adam! May I suggest using drywall toggle bolts instead of dry wall anchors. They hold much more weight and are much more secure.
Great vlog. Loving the longer format. Johan is awesome. Getting better all the time at speaking in front of the camera. Can’t wait to see the full rebuild of the r32 GTR.
Johan is the GOAT!! So down to earth guy, seems so genuin and kind!
All the love to all of the crew, but Johan and Adam is my rolemodels🙏❤️
NEW TUNER ERIC SEEMS LIKE A PRETTY CHILL DUDE
This channel is the best ever since his BMX arc. Adam is the GOAT

I dig that [Cast Iron] gray color you had that JZ block painted a year or so ago. It also makes leaks easier to spot which can save an event/ engine.
Love watching Johan work. Thing of beauty👌
To see you get the original gtr and the whole collection would be sick
fr, eagerly waiting for an r33 lol
@@LiLWessie I mean he had a 33 for a while lol so sorta counts
All painted the period correct midnight purple for that chassis 👌😂
@@Matt_Lanzer_13 yeah i was here for it, the giveaway one. I just wanna see him build one for himself
@@Matty.Hill_87 except r32’s never came in oem midnight purple...
Definitely one of my favorite builds can’t wait to see them all lined up ! 🔥
Loving the Chaser build! Missed the classic White Chaser :)
Man that HP to TQ ratio on the 32 is some Honda stuff lol
Johan in front of the camera is just so genuine and wholesome.
PRO TIP for Adam LZ home improvements. Put your bit through the center of a paper plate and then drill your hole in the roof. Saves the trouble of holding the box and catches the dust waayyyyy better.
JOHAN IS A SOLDIER!!!!!... Would be good to see him open up his own JDM workshop one day
Johan is a legend! what a great guy to have around
The fins on the inter cooler Johan was taking about, the main benefit of it being like that is to maximize surface area with the added benefit of increasing the total airflow
Tip on drilling in the roof, use a cutoff of a Coca Cola-bottle or something. Tape it to the drill and viola, catches all the excess material
idk if it’s just me but i really miss seeing adam send a car out like the 240 or even the chaser and just getting doors. this stuff is definitely interesting, just liked the drifting simple videos with his friends.
Listening to Johann explaining stuff is so relaxing
Johan forgetting to struggle lifting that transmission on to the transmission jack hahahaha
Can't wait to see the finished build back on the road
Same me too!
Nah fr !

This is what RUclips is all about. Thank you for this experience. It’s keeping me on Track+.
Johan literally living my dream 😭 wish I was an amazing mechanic like him
You are capable. If you truly want something, don't limit yourself. Set no limits and negative self talk and you'll get there with time
Adam I love all the hard work you put into your videos and the way johan explains everything it all just works so well keep up the good work
we need more videos of Johan,he is really good at explaining and teaching
Adam wouldn't be able to have ANY OF THIS ,If it wasn't for Joh'an! Dudes a magician!!!
Anyone else curious why Adam didn't rotate the mounting plate 45 degrees to redrill the holes so that the pipe was centre?
because that makes too much sense and none of us would of thought of that either, lol.
@@sirmonkey1985 I literally had to go back to the video to see if he mentioned why he couldn't but I guess it just didn't come to mind 😂

My man living his dreams🤗 so happy for this guy. Inspired me for years and will inspire me for the upcoming years as well. Thanks 💞
Tuner guy is pretty rad, Hope to see a bit more of his progress with your cars.

This man really needs a supra and an r33 and he will have every 90s - early 2000s monster 🤘🏼
If you have access to the attic above that room go up there and put two 2x6s flat against the sheet rock screwed in from the sides with 3 1/2 inch deck screws then you can run your TV mounting lag bolts right into that wood from below.
Johan needs a raise, he’s killing it!
Yohan did a great job explaining stuff this episode
Digging the clean polished bay with the 2j. 🔥
Run from that tuner, watching for knock?????? That’s one way to turn pistons into confetti.
I don't expect to ever expect to see you on fh5 myself, but I will say tandems on there are quite fun. I am also hoping that your new fd car ends up in that game officially at some point! Also the funny bit where Johan was tossing the steering wheel was hilarious

They are way more reliable than the normal plugs you used
Midwest Mike back at it again with the fire tunes in this video! The Midwest Emo vibes are on point.👌
The white&polished is so good together 😩
that valve cover is a piece of art I love it
They just keep building “dream builds” ❤️
Man Johan is a wizard at what he does 👌🏽
That custom valve cover is sick!
Johan is awesome, great builder
johans work is so clean
Adam speaking french is absolute 👌 like we say in Quebec bravo mon gars / good job buddy (for at least trying )
Little tip: when u drill, use a vacuum and hold it next to the drill to suck away the mess😃
Grab some snap toggles for any of your drywall anchoring in the future. They are great.
That GTR sounds PERFECT
Hell yeah brother and I love Johans Spirit
The lzmfg valve cover tho 🔥
Can't wait to hear the stututu on that car 🔥🔥
I would love to see more compound update videos. I think they are fun.
Those tv mount wheel spacers tho for that proper tv fitment 👌🏼
This guy Johan is so chill.
Can you imagine a Car build with Josh from Tommys channel and Johan ? 🥶
Beautiful car man. Really enjoyed the video! Thank you for sharing with us!
Johan is killing the game! fabrication quality is through the roof!
Those beeds are perfect Johan
You’re an inspiration and what you do is my dream and one day I plan on doing it but keep growing and having fun, stay safe too have a good one!
I'm looking forward to that 4 rotor build 😩
Johan is dope af.. get him to weld up some more exhaust pipes.. so gorgeous
My favourite thing to watch in the mornings 💪🏻💪🏻
Johan is a legend
It’s a good day when Adam posts
“dub hyno” love it
home improvements a whole nother ball game aye haha, att'a boyz. Keep doing you, it motivates & pushes folks. IMO, be safe, salute
Adam. I hate wall anchors too. If you want a stronger anchor. Check out zip toggles. A little better than your standard anchor…
Johan laying dimes 👏👏👏👊🏻💯
Johan is so awesome.
Johann is the man. I hope gets paid all the money.
Keep up the good work guys. Ik Adam is the face and yall are the background but if it wasn't for yall he wouldn't be where he is rn
Lovin' that JZ build. Great content as always.
You know who else is good with link ecu's? Jimmy!
love the colour of the GTR !!!!
