Toyota Hilux / Miata Chassis Swap?? Building a Shreddable Drift Pickup Truck
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- The folks at Driftworks build some mad creations - many times they're full of horsepower, big motors, big tires, and big fenders. But sometimes... simplicity is key. And the most fun. Which is why we're all about this here Miata chassis-swapped Hilux. Could drift trucks be the next wave?

Thanks again for coming to visit guys!
Thanks for showing us the Driftworks Hospitality... Let us know when the Lambo is ready to party. 👍🏼🤘🏼
Love to see awesome rides. These vintage rides take a lot to keep them going. Nothing better than hitting the mark like this.
Craig at Dyno torque is a genius.. some of the stuff he's built just for the driftworks guys are insane
Ps James's ae86 is 👌👌
Menace to society
I love it, pure mad skills with build, execution, driving...so unassuming of a truck, the definition of a sleeper. Great work guys keep it up
The DriftWorks fleet is one of the best in UK!
Facts! The DriftWorks squad knows how to build some serious street / track cars. Every time we go pay them a visit they always have another project in the works. Props to the Driftworks squad for holding it down in the U.K.
Love it. My first farm car was one of these. Got it when i was 10 and had a hell of a lot of fun in that thing, even though it was a tired 1600, 4 on the tree, and holes in the floor. Currently have 3 or 4 of them floating around the car farm.
I like how you said if you can do a donut and he does a whole power slide into a donut and Bones out
Not a power slide, just handbrake.
@@superbarnie Ya what an idiot right? Good thing you corrected him, who knows what would have happened.
@@OneEyeDollar6 What would have happened? Misunderstanding and the propagation of untruths.
@@superbarnie "Misunderstanding and the propagation of untruths" You're insane lol
@@OneEyeDollar6 Consider this for a moment. If five people who didn't know what a power slide were watching this video and happened to scroll down to the comments and read OP's comment, they would think that what they saw was indeed a "power slide". Now, while conversing with their friends or strangers online, they might further spread this misunderstanding. And so on, and so forth. And all of it could have been prevented by one person speaking up. That's why things like this must be nipped in the bud before they get out of hand. If there is one duty we have to society, it is to preserve and uphold the truth. Without truth, a society has no sense of direction and will soon find itself in dire straits.
I just absolutely love these little trucks! Datsuns and Toyotas and the occasional S-10 and blazer can make awesome little trucks like this to cruze or rip around lol
Price, Performance, and Availability: What’s your engine swap of choice?!
V8 Magnum 360 (MOPAR)
Literally ALL DAY EVERY DAY!
I own two!
Good for :
Drifting
Dragging
Rally
Sreet
ect.
All around GREAT engine!
@@cadewithac couldn't agree more!
HEY H🛑🛑NIGAN!!!!!!!! Y'all should really ask these questions more often! I HIGHLY recommend you ask this same one on one of y'alls bigger channels!🤘🏻🤘🏻
Probably a 5.3 or 4.8 LS, you can get them in running condition for about 100-300 bucks at a pick and pull.
@@ktmedia7599 NICE!
Still can't believe larry came to my home town.
You must not pay attention to our social media! We always drop what spot we are hitting next. We’ll be back soon...
Love this channel. Best hoonigan. Gets all the oddities in the car world. Awesome work
Driftworks got such cool stuff man. I wish they did another Outsiders Video. I radomly watch that every once in a while - such a good Doc.
Amazing what can be done with these little things.
So light, almost like a gocart.
How cool! A Miatatora☠️🖤☠️
I love it when Larry said "l love that something like this exist". How not to agree, I'd actually love it even more if it was in my drive way, which is rather difficult since these were never sold here..
Freakin love it that thing is so nice
I LOVE IT!!!! GREAT VIDEO LARRY AND A GREAT BUILD!!!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!! SO MUCH FUN!!!!
Drift works makes some sweet builds
Too awesome for words 😮
Yes!
For a second I thought Larry hucked the truck into donuts
Thing is sick
Rip to Hilux prices... Seeing how easing the swap was, we can almost guarantee this will become a very popular swap. The secrets out!
This exists and makes me happy
Idk what it is, but its awesome to see mini trucks drifting
We can change the oil but we'd rather just put an LS in it. I need to take my car there!
Ah, I see that he is a man of car culture as well.
Maaaaaan your content is getting better and better...you sir are a legend
This is my plan almost exactly for my 1990 isuzu. I want a beams swap, with a miata rear suspension subframe and diff. I already have the junk miata, and live right next to JDM orlando. If i could get a saturday AND sunday off in a month, wed be gravy
Kyle Rombousek Blacktop BEAMS would be so sick. Look into 3sge RAV4 too, they fit better. Check out TommyFYeah, he's doing a 3sgte swap on one
Kyle Rombousek do you plan on using the 6 speed they come with? With an engine like that, you’d be so set. Stock, it makes enough horsepower to be seriously fun and it’s easily reliable for well over 200k miles. Such a perfect swap.
Its been a longggg process but in a couple months, i should be going to jdm orlando! That gives me time to decide rear suspension, the more i look into it, the more i might just go with a 4 link solid axle rear, no more leaf springs! And i founf stiffer torsion springs for the front, 2" drop spindles, and im thinking a junkyard ford explorer rear end. My only issue with my truck is the 6 bolt lug pattern. Very limited on wheel/brake options. But i love the beams engine. Something about higher powered NA 4 bangers gets me goin
And yed i plan on using the 6 speed.
This is the shop with that had that film of the E46 with the M5 E60 V10 in it with valved exhausted
I wouldn't mind a V8 700bhp swapped in for my 1.9cdti, but my Astra Estate would have to have a RWD conversion too.
Oh and I still want to get 50mpg as well.
I dig this thing because it still has a bed. It seems like everyone is all about bagging trucks and hacking up the bed with huge axle tunnels. To me trucks are only cool if you can still haul stuff in them.
I wish PCI or some company made some type of Side skirts for this Mini truck. Like from the Bed back to make the truck body lines Flow better in my opinion.
Epic!
That TVR blow me away!! 😍😍
I was wondering when this truck would grab y'alls attention.
@7:22 .... Larry scumbagging a drive.... another bad habit (or not ) picked up from the Hoonigans.
Warning: Scumbagging is contagious... Who do you think Larry picked it up from... We blame Louis....
Up the Villa!
Awesome
I like low budget and low power drift car.. because drift is fun.
Thank you for the golden content 💖
From South Africa indeed 🇿🇦
Super cool.... more please

Genuine rault car from Japan. Look at driftworks channel.

Why is there literally no comments???
C'mon car guy$!!!!!
Sometimes a video just leaves you speechless...
@@LarryChenPhoto lolz
Got to work to pay for the toys
I agree rotary is cool but not reliable so any engine that makes power is better
Hey that's running our knuckles and control arms

@@crystalwhite9997 lol
Never met anyone more proud of 5th place in our lives... Way to pull through Michael! 😂
@@LarryChenPhoto no joke lol
@@LarryChenPhoto Thank you. I have been waiting for the majority of my life for this moment. Again, thank you.
Please talk about Phil's Lambo... :D
Once Phil finishes the Lambo we’ll have a good excuse to make another trip out to the U.K. The real question is, do you think Phil will let Larry drive it...
@@LarryChenPhoto Hell no! I'll scare the living crap out of him though!
Everyone on Ebay, marketplace, craigslist after watching this video...
I want to body drop the exact truck but on a evo9
nah sr20 was a better choice in my eyes more power ;)
What's up with the dually in the background?
That's Chevy Minaj our shop truck.
Here this was featured in Speedhunters. Like if you recall this year back.
Marios Tabajen I'm so glad someone remembered! It's cool to see a former speedhunter give this truck some recognition. Man I sure do wish Larry would come back to contribute some more features for SH

Scumbaggery at its finest
Larry is low key one of the biggest scumbags we have.... Don’t let his “Larry Charm” fool you!
@@LarryChenPhoto Larry charm! Lol
Should’ve done a 3sgte instead
I wonder dose Larry get the revenue for this channel or dose hoonigan get it?
Both, most likely Larry gets a set amount, Hoonigan takes the rest.
I'm sure it's fair or Larry wouldn't do it
You should nickname it the "HX-5"... for Hilux 5...
It's called the Hi-5.

Damn... I need to miata subframe swap my truck
What are you waiting for... Go hit the your local junkyards! You’ll thank us later.
When God the Almighty One is in Control every thing falls in place.
For 24yrs living next door to aLS.
Bradd who dafq is Alice ?
Miata chassis? Thought they are unibody
Truck frame miata subframes
Get gingium on this
RX7 guys always hatin' on RX8s, but still getting butthurt about LS swapped RX8s?
Did he just say "blow a motor n its only 50 quid"??? not sure the value of a 'quid' but that sounds impossibly inexpensive...
Rusty smashed up MX-5s are plentiful in the UK.
mmm... Fiat guacamole.
Please, conversion, not swap.
LoL
I miss my 69 datsun
Ugly waste of money!, but it’ll get us views and make us money so why not?! 🤣🤣🤣
?
Miatas don't have a chassis it's unibody
