I just got my '72 Z back on the road with fuel injection. It looks like crap to me and needs paint, but I get 2-3 compliments everytime I drive it. I guess it just has that look that everyone is missing.
Stop... You had me at blue 240 lol. This is going to be great. Subbing for sure. Only a few minutes in and like the filming style. Love the background music too. Reminds me of something WuTang would have used in the 90's. Great stuff.
This just makes me sigh and think of my old 260z.🥰 They are such beautiful cars to drive, perfect seating position, great steering feel, so easy to locate the wheels with pinpoint precision, when cornering. 👌🧐🍸 Nice work on yours. It's a really lovely ride.
we could do so many things with todays tech but nah. we completely fuck ourselves over because of a bunch of lgbtq sjw 'awareness' bullshit. cars themselves are disappearing right before our eyes. imagine how the car scene is going to look 30 years from now. honda civics are gonna be the new classics. they already are.
@@possibleproblem479your right oh mighty explainer OTO, imagine a toyota Z from the 1970s with today's brakes, EFI,ABS, but none of the engine management that is installed to achieve the rediciculous omissions regulations that are strangling toodays manafactureres, everyone would want one, they would actually save up (like in the old days) so they could eventually buy one, personally I think car manufacturers should tell governments to go and F/Off and make the cars the public want. . the power of consurmism over government guidance that's imposed on us by unelected none representative over paid (by our taxes) jobs-worths in Brussels,
@@sicks6six best part is the regulations are bs. they have no idea what they're doing and just put out all this shit to make it look like they've got things under control but they dont. until it effects their wallets directly they dont care
Reminds me of my blue 1973 Datsun 240z I bought a year after I got out of h.s., though was a black & white interior. Then I did some upgraded that were available at that time. But these are better in technology & engineering. I will get another one soon.
Sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Now they want to slow down all the gas station fuel pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emission- and smoke crime.
The main reason: T3 has been making track tested and proven parts for decades. And this car will likely see the track a few times a year. It also is a plus that they are local to me and are owned / operated by some awesome folks.
@@DeLaGarage thank you for the reply. I was just wondering. I have everything T3 makes for underneath my Z. But the stuff Apex is turning out looks amazing! Thought of selling my T3 setup for an Apex track kit
@@kuraabella Disc brake and CV axle pricing is listed on Z Car Garage's website (www.zcargarage.com/new-products/). For suspension pricing head to T3's website (technotoytuning.com/nissan/240z).

Great mods....is the track width narrower on the front than the rear? What is the purpose for that? Is it to give more tire clearance on the front when turning? Thanks for sharing!
Yes, I still need to find a good place to get my fenders rolled before increasing track width. Tires were already rubbing on stock suspension with 15" Panasports
Wow great vid! I'm sure it was a huge difference. I would recommend that you change all your bushings, like the subframe and differential with something just a bit stiffer than stock. Should make for another good change. 👍
Good call! I actually did get around to changing the mustache bar bushings to polyurethane, along with adding helper springs to the coilovers, but I didn't get a chance to get it on video. The bushings were pretty worn, so it did make a difference.
I love this action with lift making the job so simple to do with getting all down on the floor and getting back up etc. Amazing what you can accomplish just having a LIFT. Exactly what I need for about six months is PRIVATE garage with nice LIFT and man you can getter done. The one I find online rent is little too expense plus it open to public. Nice work/videos enjoy it very much. How many days did actually take for you to finish the entire job?
Not sure what peoples fascination with these cars all of a sudden. There will be nothing out here left far as classic to be restored. Nobody rode nissans now everyones in a nissan. Tons of honda civics out here that need love.

That dual caliper (parking brake / caliper) bracket wasent designed to work with techno toy tunning struts….. and that rear control arm bushing cap could have been installed properly for the exhaust wasent in the way
Man I love these early Z cars. I think they will always be timeless. In fact, they still look better than most new cars on the road today.
i agree 100%
I just got my '72 Z back on the road with fuel injection. It looks like crap to me and needs paint, but I get 2-3 compliments everytime I drive it. I guess it just has that look that everyone is missing.
Those modifications on the that Z makes want to get another 240z. Impressive!

Thanks, they're AME x Fatlace wheels
I saw that stack of 5ZIGEN FN01RCs 🔥
Good eye! Not mine unfortunately. I'd love to get a set for my gc8 one day...
STOP VIDEO @ 11.04 !This guy doesnt like EYESIGHT apparently. No eye protection. Im sure his bosses insurance company will flip.
Excellent work and very excellent video from CR🇨🇷
Beautiful setup you have there. 👍
Thank you! Love your Z build as well. Hope you're able to get it on the road soon! 🤞

This project took around 20 hours at the shop
Super castom ! Super apgreib !

Good
my dream car
Definitely will follow this build. Love this car so much
May i found a girl who love cars.
That’s a sick car!
great video, even though it gave me rust anxiety
Why did you guys choose the T3 parts over Apex Engineering?

Thank you for this video!!! And perfect music also thank you!!!
Thank you! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the video
My jaw just dropped
dope bro!!! when i get my Z i'll have it swap with you guys as well!!!
Right on! Whenever you have all your parts ready, be sure to reach out to Trackspec Autosports in Fremont.
@@DeLaGarage How much did it cost everything for the full suspension swap with the disc brake system. and cost of labor like everything2x? 😅😅

Always great to see an old car getting new parts fitted on
Now i have no choice but to get a z30
S30's are great. From what I've seen, they have been shooting up in price and popularity, so snag a clean example while you can. Happy hunting!
@@DeLaGarage trust me im trying lmao
It's always satisfying seeing new suspension parts go on.

💕🔥😍👍
Everyone loves butter!
Gonna do a custom chassis/suspension for my Z..
Nobody seems to make proper suspension for the Z, which is unfortunate.
Nice work on yours 🤙

Ufff, que satisfacción da al ver el video, me encantó

What's your shop info I will probably take my car to you guys I have my EM1 and need upgrades
The shop is Track Spec Auto in Fremont, CA
Hey, I was hoping you could answer a question for me. With your evolved coilovers did you use flat top hats in the back or the taller tapered ones?
I used the solid pillow mounts in the rear - technotoytuning.com/nissan/240z/240z-260z-and-280z-solid-pillow-mounts
Love those fatlace wheels I want me a set

What suspension did you guys install I'm looking at the apex
Techno Toy Tuning
Researched the EDIT was RIPE !
🔥🔥🔥
if you have to cut on new parts to make it fit it's not worth it.
That dual caliper (parking brake / caliper) bracket wasent designed to work with techno toy tunning struts….. and that rear control arm bushing cap could have been installed properly for the exhaust wasent in the way

What wheels rims are you running?

@@punkracing thanks. Gotta save up now.
@@punkracing so are these the most exclusive wheels ever...
@kstoff2218 Hit up AutoRnD if you're looking for a set. They still may have a few sets. Not sure if they still have the same bronze color though.
@@DeLaGarage good looking out. The bronze are the best looking but I might have to get the asphalt if they can’t help me.
Time lapse make me not enjoying every moment your video... But you're content is great dude...
Id pick this over hearing “whats up youtube”and selfies from vloggers all day
