Sub to Nathan’s channel here youtube.com/@Nathanmakovec Part 2 drops this weekend! 👊🏻
I’m so glad the drift cart series introduced me into the channel, this is awesome. These old ZXs are one of the few cars which look sick regardless of the ride height. Personally I really like the brown and blue thing you’ve got going on now with the seats, wheels, cage and paint, but if you want to black out the interior that would be pretty sick too.
THE BAGS ARE ON!!! The Z looks sick ❤
Thanks bro! Absolutely love the asthetics of this car when it’s slammed 😍
So glad the 280zx is getting some love!!!!!!!
New project! Sweet!!
Although I still have a soft spot for the 240/260/280Z cars, so I still want to see this car progress
More dump tuning please with the new clutch, and then some pov driving and cruising would be sick
Such a tastefully done S130, never paid much mind to that chassis, but yours sets a good standard. Now I must continue to collect parts for my Z32 project.
Back in 1996 I used a set of Bushwhacker brand off road flares, made for an S-10, on my friends 78(I believe) 280Z. Of course a full ground effects kit was used too. I still have pics of it, and we're still friends. 😊✌️
What a story! Would love to see those pics 👀. Dm them to me on Instagram if you can @itsmikelake
@@itsmikelake I'll find you in a bit and then find where pics are posted. I use shop name- Rolling Art Studio. Just FYI 😊
Man that looks sick as dude 100% a dream car
Thanks bro. 100% agree!
that’s epic bro! love your datsun!
That car is come along way! I remember the video when you got it. It is a beautiful piece of machine right now. Keep up the good work Mike.🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
I loved the Subaru part reminded me of all my mates from home mad video bro your killing it bro
Haha cheers brother!
This is getting to be one of my favorite builds as of recent, and it's even inspired mine (turbo location) Good work!
Can you tell us how the car handles and rides once you've got some runs in with the air ride? Looks like quite the undertaking, but ive been contemplating doing the same to my S30 for a few years.
Love the Datsun! Very clean, beautiful looking car...
looks so good great job guys.
Cheers 😁
wow man you are doing things to this zx that i want to do.......much appreciated my bro.
I love your channel !!!!!!
Thank you bro! Such an awesome car. Can’t wait to have it all finished and take her for a cruise 😍
damn Mike, your zx looks badass, love seeing your build! it inspires me to keep working on mine
Thank you bro! So happy that my vision is finally coming to life 😁
Enjoying the videos 😁
Cheers Randie! Lots more incoming 👊🏻
Air bags are sick!!!
Right?! I’m surprised by how much I like them 🤣
Keen as to cruise with out clean street cars!!
Cannot wait for Saturday 😍
I love these 280 zx's my old boy was a 'datto freak' as he would call them growing up, i think at one stage he had 8x 280s , 7 were parts cars for the 1 and he had an r30 as a daily with 3 of those for spares lol... im not far off but have a range of different cars mostly toyotas and one r32 gtst with a 1jz 😂😂 ..... good to see others playing with these though, makes me want one 😅😅
No way! That’s so fricken cool. I wouldn’t mind having a spare shell or 2 for parts 🤣
@@itsmikelake unfortunately he scrapped most of them in the late 2000s and the one main one he was fixing up sold for $800 back in 2010, it was a red targa with twin su's , 240k 5 speed, complete red interior from another shell and the origional black interior spare 😭 i was like 14 when he sold it... spewing
What year are the airbags u got cause I would like to get some for mine and from what Subaru
Mike, although running the lines through metal is fine, a rubber grommet seal would prevent the line rubbing on the metal and wearing a hole into the line, also alittle worried about welding that support to the steering knuckle like that, normally cast migd wont hold forever and the weld could crack apart, double check the penetration from the knuckle to the coil over support tube, and if needed grab a pipe cut it to a length where the lower section of the shock slides into it and then cut the pipe in half weld both sections around the lower tube of the coil over tube on the knuckle, so weld around the bottom, both cut sides and the top this will give you a reinforced lower section before putting the coil over in
Good call on both! I have installed grommets on all 4 points where the lines go through the body 😁. Also, in the vid I didn’t show it but the body of the coilover fits over a stub on the knuckle. Then it’s welded. I also got waz to do a second pass over my weld and he was happy with it all. I think it’ll hold up fine!
Honestly I found a 280zx for 6k usually it’s worth higher but it’s tempting and it’s a 5 speed and it’s black painted respray maybe that’s why but it doesn’t seem rested it’s tempting tho make it a 500 L28 Twinturbo monster and give it drag slicks is what I want to do
Hello friend, I would like to know what measurements your ring has so I can buy one like that for my car.
On ya mike 🤟
Thanks homie ❤️
Keep the brown seats they match your rims.
I may have already sprayed them black with the fabric paint 😅
@@itsmikelake as long as you like how it all looks that's all that matters. I do like the air ride i was going to put one of those on my 06 Honda Civic .

Let me guess the project, Rex's Eseries Barra?
damn
because your NZ born... I have to agree with the way you say "Sue Bar roo" rather than "super roo" like the Ausies say!
🤣 it always confused me so much over here. People look at me so weird when I say it
What happened to the fevo? :O
👀 surely scroll through the videos on my channel and see we rwd evo converted it 😛
Time to cut and raise the rails so you can drive tucking rim
Was literally thinking this 👀
Bro has a skyline or a r34
Yep! That’s my girlfriends car 😛
