Im not rich but this is my dream car and i want it so bad.... i see them for like 15k in bad state, is it worth it ?i dont care if it takes me 10 years to finish it(dont need the sickest engine). How much wil it cost after the 15k.. so much questions 😭

The Z Car Garage guy is the perfect host ever in the motoring world. He cares about everything and clearly everyone on involved. Makes you love the builds more because they are built with pure respectable passion. What superb content. If he did stand-up he would such an awesome orater too.
Rob and Z Car Garage helped me build my Datsun Bluebird 411 SSS up from a basket case to a rolling piece of Japanese art. My 300ZX Slicktop also benefits from the fine work at Z Car Garage by Rob & Company. One of the sexiest NAs you've ever seen. Perfect stance, StopTech Kit, Work XD9. Great down to earth guys. A ZCG, you're more than a customer, you're family.
I can't imagine driving that beast. I bought a 240Z right off the showroom floor in 1970. No changes in engine, trans, etc. only factory model street version and I got it to over 120 on the NJ Turnpike at night. It was like driving a bullet. That car is a four wheel heart attack. Love it.......
Love Rob's shop. I remember when he got one of the original Motorex R34 Skylines back in the early 2000's. The guy is a legend. That S30 is a work of art. Brilliant
Finally got to see L28 TURBO so many people swap sr20 rb26 ls nice to keep original engine on it i watch a japan guy build turbo carberator L24 thats thing rip
I know this type of build is more expensive and refined than just taking the short cut to max power by just dropping an LS in there but man is there any better way than this? This is just *chefs kiss.
Finally someone used an L series motor and now you see how great that motor can be when it's built properly. :) What a beast!!! Great vlog and the car is phenomenal!

I’m typically an Italian exotic car fan/snob but that Datsun is freaking beautiful! You all need to feature more cars like this!
FINALLY I honestly hate LS swaps
Same here. Sure, LS swaps give more power for less money, but it also ruins the soul of the car.
this is the right engine for this car, but I do love a good LS swap in other cars.
Back in the day...there were Camaros and Mustangs and in another World in the same town there were 911's and Z's. They stayed in their World's ,apart from each other......in the same city /Town......!
As do I however I respect well built vehicles.
Honestly, knowing the nature of how hard engine swaps usually are, this probably cost the same as doing a turbo LS conversion
Hands down, my Fav Z. I find myself coming back and watching this video over and over. Makes me want to ditch the LS in my 280z and go back to a L28.
When did Colonel Sanders start a Japanese car garage?
Baddest Z I've seen in person and Rob a humble and really cool dude putting San Jose on the map for the best Z shop in the bay.

Because it’s 60 years old, it’ll always sound a bit more rough than a JZ/RB/Barra.
