Clearly you’ve never done a manual swap before. Extremely common to do this. Not only have I seen it done on many other channels, but have done this myself a couple times
Hey TJ just wanted to throw some advice on an issue that i ran into with my s14, when converting auto to manual the firewall where the pedal mounts to can get flimsy, i would recommend getting a brace for it or make 2 flange washers one for either side of the firewall to brace it better. Thats all
You can get those headlight and turn signals stalks new at O'reilly or probably most other parts stores. The brand is "Import Direct" but it is EXACTLY the same part as OEM. Did this for my S13.
Get IR window tint on the windshield 70% will do and strip what you applied on your dash and then do a leather conditioner treatment on it to preserve it from cracking and yes I’m aware that it’s not a leather dash.
Should do a UV protection 80% tint on the windshield to help prevent the new dash from cracking. A lot of times the sun causes it. Not sure on the 240’s personally
Doing an interior is super rewarding. This weekend my 08 Impala had an heater core leak that messed up my carpet and insulation so I decided to just order a whole new carpet and took out all the seats and center consol and fixed the heater core and replaced the carpet and insulation and it was super rewarding when it was done and back to clean and stock interior.
Tj I’m sure you probably won’t read this but I’m super excited for vlog mas it going to surely help me get through these final days of military training. On to the plane back home, I’m super excited to see what you have to post each an every day.
All my years fantasizing about doing an S14 build, the dash has always been the black eye of the 240sx. I always wondered why no one ever thought to make a replacement carbon fiber dash. I thought about that with you having that preserved one out. It would be cool to have someone like Seibon make one that they could offer to the general market.
Did you guys bolt the top of the clutch pedal ?? Don’t think you mentioned it at all throughout the video.. but there is a third bolt on s14’s that your forgetting, or the pedal will feel kinda loose..
Proud to be a Filipino viewer here!! Because of you kuya calvin!! Kuya calvin teach TJ some tagalog words. Always watching your vlog here in the Philippines teej!!!
When TJ said be careful not to brake anything and he broke something reminded me when my boss told me to watch out because that thing breaks easily and after 2 minutes i left he broke it
Yo tj not sure if you did it because u didn’t film it but I know in the skylines there is a 3rd bolt / weld on the clutch petal assembly up the top to stabilise it all and stops it feeling sloppy. Fairly sure it’s there on the Silvia’s also. Cheers for the vids ✌🏻
On the first day of vlogmas, Tj gave to me: a dash for the s14 🤩
And so it begins
Bars!
Well played mate
very creative mate
@@stop6578 yup just like last year lmao
TJ: “yeah i’m a BIG fan of clean, OEM interiors”
also TJ: *hacks the brake pedal in half with a sawszall*
TJ should mail you the sawed off piece.

and some paint on the cut edge

When it’s done you should tint all the windows with the uv protection film, should protect the interior and keep the heat out.
“i want the cleanest oem looking interior” proceeds to cut the brake pedal in half
Same when he was putting those rusty ass nuts on the peddle lol
Rudnick taught him well
Was thinking the same. Deadass also drills a hole in a freshly painted engine bay, does no paint protection before working on the car either.
RB26 Mustang chilling on the lift in the back looking spicy 👌 13:12
make a reinforcement plate for where you cut the hole for the clutch pedal thingy. dont wanna blow that hole out ⏸
The airbag panel will pop out and snap back in. Easier to clean by just removing the panel.
Get IR window tint on the windshield 70% will do and strip what you applied on your dash and then do a leather conditioner treatment on it to preserve it from cracking and yes I’m aware that it’s not a leather dash.

Best way to get dust and crap out of gaps like around the airbag is to use a soft paint brush and a hoover works a treat.
Dude you had me in the beginning I was expecting the vlogmas intro lol. This is going to be one clean ass 240 bro.
A Christmas tree bit? Lol I think that’s what we’d call a step bit.
use the spray and get a detail brush then vacuum the remaining debris, works well
The Meguiars cleaner also helps with UV. It’s the only thing I use.
Use a scrub brush on a drill bit like the pro detailers to get the cracks clean
5:48 the best Ainsley reference 😂
you can get the light switch/stalk on ebay lots of models use that same part. i got one for my customer for his nissan.

Love the vlogs Tj. Bought some merchandise today for the first time cant for it to come in
💪 looking pretty big at 7:20 Calvin. Work you’ve been putting in is definitely paying off!
Can’t wait to see how the S14 turns out!!!
13:00 oh i was a stunden back then and studied to be a car mechanic. I remember that your url was something with Ironman :D
Hey TJ. Love your videos!
You should use “303 Aerospace” to dress the inside of your cars. Not shiny and makes your interior look brand new.
So if i buy something today, do i still have a chance to be picked on the 15th? Or do you need to buy something each day to be entered everyday? 🤔
i could look at that midnight purple all day
Vlogmas is literally the best thing to exist!!!

Adding on to what u about keeping the car clean u should get a dachmat for it 👍
By the way I like using Mother's VLR to clean leather seats 👌

Just bought a 02’ 330xi, know it’ll be a lot of work but I’ve always done cosmetic and body work. Engine’ll be a new era for me.
Love the vlogs TJ. This month is gonna be amazing!
If Calvin starts using keeps we can track his progress
Yes it’s finally Vlogmas!
Thanks for this build TJ! So excited to see all that's ahead!
Get yourself some detail brushes dawg… and compressed air… that dash would be spotless

I've definitely never heard a step bit referred to as a Christmas Tree bit, but I like it
Whatever you do with the new BRZ the first install HAS to be in Calvin's garage
I'm sure you have a air compressor. Use a blow gun to get the dust out of the hard to reach spots.
TJ we need the vlogmas Christmas jingle back ASAP! I was waiting for it like a kid on Christmas Eve 😓
Paints car, lean all over it. Paints engine bay, drill some holes in it. Hope you guys at least painted the bare metal after cutting it out
Definitely not 🤣 like the ghetto brake pedal.
Not allowed to lean on a car anymore? Jesus its a car not a piece of glass or something
Thinking the same thing
Wondered why paint was the first thing when it was going to be worked on
Please prime and paint where you cut into the firewall. You don't want that to rust!

The new drop is sick, can't believe it's already Vlogmas!
Tint the windshield to save the dash for a bit longer
350 looking good with the new livery
Miss these kinda vlogs.... glad they're back!!!
tj looked so happy in his last video and im glad :)

Haven't seen the video yet, but that sounds like something he could do himself with Streethunter. You know he loves his carbon fiber
Hope you guys painted the hole you cut in the firewall to prevent rust
Definitely need a snowboarding trip this vlogmas
Could use a fabric dye on the felt in the dash, but I’d be sure to tape off the area around it extremely well
Tj hunt is a Boss always good vibes with the mad scientist Calvin...

Calvin has more gold necklaces than Mr T.! What a choch! Gotta love him!🤟🏼
YESSSSS VLOGMASSSSSS U HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG I WAITED FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try using compressed Air instead of a screwdriver and a rag. Pro tip
Tj is on the 240 kid style. Hacksaw the brake pedal in half and leave raw metal after drillin a hole
Proud to be a Filipino viewer here!! Because of you kuya calvin!!
Kuya calvin teach TJ some tagalog words.
Always watching your vlog here in the Philippines teej!!!
you should reinforce the inside of the dash with a vinyl or something so you cant see it but it can prevent future cracks.
I love Mickey in the background "I DOUBT YOU I DOUBT YOU" HAHA 😄
When Calvin’s voice equally matches the Nanai audio. Love it.
TJ dont forget to touch up the cut section with some paint so that it wont rust.
These vlogs are fantastic to listen to on the go!
Good thing for you "Niles 1409" is like a $40 part
Should get a steam cleaner to clean all the crevices and etc. it will elevate your detailing by 100 percent
You need a set of detailing brushes 👌 clean those cracks and seams
And a deburrer 😅
Hey tJ I was on your website buying some stuff for the giveaways.
I was wondering, will you ever restock the hydro flask again?
And the valvoline pre orders shipped today! LFG!! W
Vlogmas baby! Love to see it, super excited about the drop!
Love the JDM vlogs TJ and big ups for kuya calvin for his nanay’s quote.
Ay nako tita!!! 😂😂
That Intro is a massive throwback, don't ever change it Teeg!
No Christmas outro like last year, TJ? Last year's Christmas outro was actually the best overall outro, very Christmasy and fitting for your channel 👌
Felt so good to see the vlogmas transition once again. cant believe ive been watching for 5 straight years
Make sure you rust proof the metal you cut in the firewall
Calvin's hair dude he is the ultimate chaaaachhh
Clean and simple
Booyah for VLOGmas. I’m ready to comment and like 25 times this month!
Are the delays because of supply chain shortages?

Don’t know about the 3rd arm but 3rd leg yeah
Hey Sabrina, it looks like TJ could use some quality interior detail brushes for Christmas
Hell yeah brother
I would replace that windshield with a new windshield that have high UV protection to prevent that dash from cracking again.
Use an airline blower on the felt 👍🏼
Check the 350z's oil cap.
Happy Vlogmas everyone 🤙🏾
“Loves OEM interior” has tan seat belts in the rx7😂
Tj got the bubbles glasses hell yeah
Damn Alvin! First the oil cap, now the battery??
Nice!
Someone please teach TJ to use spray bottle and air hose for getting dust and grime out of the cracks!
Hahahaha Damn! Nanay is savage! Don’t be pissy boy!!

Fire video 🔥 Love how ya filmed the process and things you had to do to get the dash out 🤘🏼
“Congrats to everyone who is early and who found this comment”
Calvin the best best friend of all
Sheesh that into hit different this time of year
Awesome job
Gotta love Vlogmas man
Vlogmas baby let’s go!!!!
