If you buy the Tokyo dirty dvd it comes with a second disc I think but anyways they have the making of the movie and they show how they built Hans car step by step with veilside. I remember them going through in detail of the veilside car about the challenges with the body kit and how they went about it.
Hi TJ, the car it´s looking great, and the gap betwen the trunk and the back bumper is like that, others Vielside kits have also that gap that is going to be "filled" with the rubber seal.
@@codyf1562 yes and no, my Z32 has a VeilSide EC1 spoiler that I installed and water just puddles there so I don’t think VeilSide expects their designs like that but maybe on fortune Kits
I was and still am a huge fan of your first RX7 build, it is just the perfect street car. So naturally, I was blown away when you announced this Veilside build. This just has nostalgic vibes of when You and Calvin worked on Miley in the small garage. You are just such an inspiration to the younger generation of car enthusiasts. Congrats on everything You achieved so far and thank You for constantly inspiring and being who You are!
TJ, I hope you see this! When you go to mount the rear quarter panel piece instead of taking out the entire enterior to gain access. Just drill out the hole round and put a threaded rivit insert. It will make life a whole lot easier!
yep I used rivnuts on my horrible fitmen cf sideskirts and they would make the mock up of this so much faster and less frustrating. plus rivnuts are so easy to use
OG's remember when Danny had that Mazda 3 hatchback. Throwback to when he had that wild hair and Teeg first introduced him to the channel. It's crazy to think that I've been following TJ's rise from 1000 or subs to now, like no joke been watching my guy all through my teen's to now. NGL his early videos in the Calvin's driveway inspired me to work on my cars and knowing he had the e90 330 sedan before Miley was hella cool but tbh i never messed around with it too much. Now with the 4Runner I got I been putting in that work and shes come a far way, props guys for entertaining us over the years man.
I’m so hyped to see a veilside build because they’re not common. Also it’s crazy how fast your progressing on the build and it makes me look forward to your videos coming out. Can’t wait to see this in person!
I really hope that people appreciate what TJ does when he constantly says that he does not know what he is doing. Intentionally or not, he shows people (like me) that they can do stuff like this no matter how complex or difficult the seem to be. As long as you have some common sense, know how to read, have the courage, be patient enough and have a team/support system(preferably), you are capable of almost anything.
The lines that the veilside kit create make it look timeless. It also adds a boxiness that actually makes the rx-7 seem even more tough than it does stock, and this is coming from someone who loves the curves and the lines that the stock body FD has. Part of me wants to see it in the 2 tone black and gold so that it's a complete F&F3 replica, but part of me also wants to see it in a completely original colour scheme. Either way, this is gonna be siiiiick when she's finished.
Still blows my mind something worth so much is so hard to fit properly. Going to look awesome once you get it right though, stoked for content later in the week ;)
@@lane9668 nothing to do with its age. For a start the car is from the 90s and has definitely had a few shunts and is probably not straight. And then you have to remember epoxies always warp and mive when they harden. If you think this is bad you should see somebody try to fit a Liberty or RB Kit. They're $100k kits and are wayyyyy worse than this
@@ceecadventure7599 Liberty walk kits are 20-40k for fibre glass for supercars. Rocket bunny are ~5k and the legit ones fit much better this. Just look at the 350z videos of teejs
@@ceecadventure7599 from my research, fiberglass are more susceptible to that than “plastic” kits today but a good fiberglass bodyworker can make it perfect. But you’re 100 percent right it’s a 20+ yo chassis that moves too.
Honestly, what i think this kit is a reject kit. Veilside used to sell reject kits, which were basically kits that had bad fitment and or visual defects for a reduced price, a friend bought a reject 350z kit from them for like half off the usual price. Either that or the chassis has defects, the kit didn't survive the Texas heat.
Why wouldn't you just do nutserts in the factory holes to hold the rear flange of the fenders to the body? This would prevent having to access inside the quarter moving forward.
@@boiedy12 normally I'd agree, but if I had the friends he does willing to do this stuff with me, I'd sure as hell be doing it with my buddies. That, and this is a hell of a kit for taking it back to a garage build for the channel.
@@connormcmillin9725 yeah totally understand I mean he needs content for sure lol, but damn for a $25k you think there wouldn’t be this much fitment issues
It awesome to see that coming back to TJ's after a couple years that he still has the same vibe when he was working out of Calvin's garage. Absolutely awesome to see where you are now and still keeping it real.
This was my dream car for years, I'm so into this build! I honestly like the kit without the wing. I know it doesn't get the hot boi status without but I think it's slick.
Im sure that gap is purposely made that way possibly so you dont smash your fingers with the hatch or just to be able to lift the gate so your not pushing up from the spoiler.
Why didn't you nut cert on the rear end where them rear fenders go on instead of reaching down through the interior panels to put a bolt . Nut cert is much cleaner and faster.
I haven’t watched any of your videos since hs(2018) missed your content TJ glad to be back, and it’s awesome to still see familiar faces. The BRZ build days man
They are hella busy. They are also currently working on the new BRZ/FRS/86 street hunter hit that they are developing. During Sema for the c8 kit reveal, they almost weren't even able to finish and in fact had to finish some of the car on the show floor because SoS has so much going on before Teej showed up. Same thing with Premuim when he got his Lambo wrapped. They would have done it but they are already over scheduled so they didn't take the Lambo on.
I really think you guys will figure every thing out by the end and you probably like the challenge of doing that as well. Im really stoked to see the result! But if you gets "stuck" there is a guy named Lukas Kooz from Swedan who has built a Veilside RX-7 (like 12 years ago though) who maybe can be helpful, explaining all the hickups in the kit. Like i said really stoked to see it transform and the final result!
That’s what I thought and then the rubber weather stripping around the hatch stops any water going in. Probs just needs some holes for sitting water to go through.
Love watchint all the build series i think its the fact that they are not professionals and they doing basic common since thats what makes it interesting keep up the good work
This build is looking amazing. Not sure if you need another opinion, but I looked at quite a few photos and some of the models built for this car and it appears the gap at the hatch on the back is they way it is supposed to be. Once the car is painted, especially the two tone it really does blend in. Keep up the amazing content!
That space between the hatch and bumper is for you to be able to grab the hatch and lift it up. Car looks fire man love it. And personaly i would fill the gap but leave like a 6inch in the middle as a handle
It’s insane how much wider that body kit makes the RX-7. The progress looks pretty good. You boys are doing a great job. Can’t wait to see it finished. Curious if you’re going to go with the same two tone paint job as in the movie. I love the black and orange. Keep up the hard work!!
I haven’t watched your channel since, I’d say, 2015-2016. Life happened an I got away from RUclips and the car scene. I had a recommendation for your channel this morning an about shit myself. I forgot all about your channel. I’m beyond stoked I found my way back an you still have Calvin (or however you spell his name) around. Shits wild
Its so dope that y’all are putting this kit together yourselves. I’m so excited to see how its gonna turn out and how you’re gonna add your own touch to the car.
Sand the paint all the way down and use panel bond to glue it to the body. You can even use it to fill in the hard line you was talking about. To make it not as hard of a line.
so cool, I knew that when you both the new rx-7 that this build was coming. I love it tj and I really hope I can own one my self. all love to you and the team
Been watching since the red wrx hatchback days and you have done so many great builds since then but this car easily was my absolute favorite in f&f series excited to see it done

I'm assuming it's where you can lift the hatch from instead of the wing.
@@lxcivic2k1 Now that you mention that, you may be 100% right. :) But as as said, all the kits i have seen have that gap.
Another reason the gap is there is so water doesn't collect and create a puddle? If he seals it then I don't see a path for water to escape from.
@@codyf1562 yes and no, my Z32 has a VeilSide EC1 spoiler that I installed and water just puddles there so I don’t think VeilSide expects their designs like that but maybe on fortune Kits

I hope he paints it just like the movie! That'd be freaking sick!
You're changing the exhaust, try to make it sound like the movie! Owning the movies replica would be sick also

I was thinking similar, why not just drill it out and rivnut it!

@@DaveRogers1985 Oh My God spot on was just thinking the exact same thing aha
Yes! Was thinking this the whole time when they were struggling with the bolts and nuts! I was like just add a rivnut!
He no ordinary character orf a bachelor. Cqll
This RX-7 already looking beautiful, can’t wait to see the finished product🔥
Maybe they should have bought a c6 rather than ruining an rx7. But it's still a rotary, not an LS. So it's acceptable

That kit is so sick, I've been a Veilside fan since before F&F even came around. Can't wait to see this thing all complete, great build!
It awesome to see that coming back to TJ's after a couple years that he still has the same vibe when he was working out of Calvin's garage. Absolutely awesome to see where you are now and still keeping it real.
Hey teej just a suggestion but my guess is that trunk gap is for you’re fingers to open it 🤷♂️ Great video bud
never clicked on any videos this fast in my life, i cant wait to see how well this comes along!
The split window is such a killer look on here.
Congrats on hitting 2M Teej! Am so proud! Been following since plasti dipping Miley’s stock rims
This build is gonna be unreal! Lets also get more Danny!
This was my dream car for years, I'm so into this build! I honestly like the kit without the wing. I know it doesn't get the hot boi status without but I think it's slick.
The vision is coming together great. Cross threads are better than no threads lol.
TJ, for your seatbelt sockets in the rx7, black fabric/plastic dye will work a treat, done plenty of interior trim pieces in it and it works 👌🏻
Im sure that gap is purposely made that way possibly so you dont smash your fingers with the hatch or just to be able to lift the gate so your not pushing up from the spoiler.
i was thinking the same, with that heavy wing how else would you be able to open the trunk.
My exact thought..
Best build on the channel yet in my opinion. I love jdm builds and the fast and furious aspects added the icing to the cake 🤟🏼
Why didn't you nut cert on the rear end where them rear fenders go on instead of reaching down through the interior panels to put a bolt . Nut cert is much cleaner and faster.
I haven’t watched any of your videos since hs(2018) missed your content TJ glad to be back, and it’s awesome to still see familiar faces. The BRZ build days man
Is Oscar and SOS to busy to help with the build or are you no longer using them? Heard you mention Torrey pines instead so was just curious
Probably just too busy and a bit more expensive
They are hella busy. They are also currently working on the new BRZ/FRS/86 street hunter hit that they are developing.

This project gonna rock
What color!? I vote for a stealth build, nothing flashy. The “Tokyo street race get away from cops” vibe
Seeing as he's building "Hans Rx7", i'm gonna say Orange and Black....just a guess.

I'm surprised how little I see this kit especially with how iconic it is. Can't wait to see it complete
I can't wait to see tj and dustin together with both the rx7 when finished and dustin with the APR evo it is going to be nostalgic

So excited for this build!!!
This is my favourite build too date soo far! And I really enjoyed the r8 build too! Can't wait to see this built!
THIS IS DEFINITELY THE EPITOME OF WHAT THEY CALL WHIP SURGERY!!!!!! YOU GUYZ ARE ALL BOSSES!!!!!! LUV&RESPECT 👍👍👍😎😎😎🙏🙏🙏

This made be my favorite build and I’ve been here since day 1
19:12 Best power Move of 2022!
The best build so far.
Tj be shaving everything out here im just waiting on the manscaped sponsor at this point in time
Nothing like lunch break and a video 😌😌
TJ the gap in the trunk is that way! I look for pics on interner and all have that space. Maybe is to grab and open the hatch. Keep the good work!

Tj hunt is a Boss always good vibes with the mad scientist Calvin...
Dude Calvin always looks like he's strapped with 2 pistols with that suspender holster thingy lmao
Don’t care if im working. I see a teeg notification I gotta watch

Can we address the elephant in the room? Calvin's transformation, working in a cloak? sunglasses and a holster? Amazing!
The all white looks kinda dope lowkey
In class rn bois

such a wild kit, it's like a completely different car
Been watching this chach since his BMW days pre-Miley. This fd is my favorite build so far 🤙

Yessirr back it at again with the veilside
Actually awesome to see an video of this kit getting assembled because there's not many videos on it tbh.
