It’s crazy to see how different the channel was 4 years ago…especially James not being on Up To Speed😭😂
I know James is the soul of this channel bro

It's crazy to see how different the channel was 7 years ago...especially James not being on up to Speed 😂😂
Nissan compared the S13 to the Juke...
rip my guy
Of course , they are aiming for the profit .but I hope that some top brass of Nissan could find a way producing 240SX be a pet project that work for business incentive and enthusiast .
De'Merriko Reynolds ha, what a juke eh?
I mean, the Juke R 2.0 is pretty dope.
BattlefrontZero Agreed. I think it gets more hate than it deserves. It’s a unique and original concept
Seeing that Silvia get crushed hurt my soul
That was a R33 GTR though. Nevertheless it sure hurts to see this ;_;
@@Yuki_404 that...makes it so much worse tho
@iiPixel_Rxses
Are you ACTUALLY 6?
@iiPixel_Rxses gt badge does not make it a gtr, gt and gtst/gtt have the same badge
damn thx 4 the heads up / effective conttent warning
"The juke is a much more effective way to go to market" but absolutely NOBODY likes the ugly little juke
I've never seen anyone happy in a juke
*car enthusiats
the general population doesn't care sadly, they just need practical and affordable transportation and the dealers are trying to sell it to them
sales numbers don't lie
There's no good competition for the gt86 / brz, a new 240 would be a great contender against it but Nissan butchered their chances with their terrible overly styled concept...like no wonder it wasn't cost effective.
Creedford you should check out the reviews they all loved the juke they even made a juke R variant
haha the juke appeals to gen x and y more than a Silvia .... yeah right
Blitz Sullivan It does for Japan
13 and I'd never be caught dead in a crossover piece of shit
Blitz Sullivan yeah i would never drive that price of crap juke
Blitz Sullivan gen z here. I was at work and saw an 88 240sx stock parked right in front of me. Creamed my pants.
Up to speed went from being a list of fun facts to an actual docuseries
The Juke is a joke for the younger market. I see enough FRS, BRZs, Miatas, and Hyundai Genesis Coupes driven by young folks to know there's a damn market out there. A Silvia would put all of those out of business (except the Miata of course).
...look at the actual sales numbers haha
i think youll find 90% of young people with those cars bought them used not new
As previously stated, look at the sales numbers, but you also just demonstrated exactly why it probably doesn't make sense: the market is already over-saturated with similar vehicles.
Hell, you can probably add the 370Z and the American pony cars (particularly the base versions of the latter) to that list. They aren't as light, but you still see people drifting them and there is significant overlap in the kind of people who buy these cars and those who buy existing light FRs.
4:30 TRIGGERS ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Folexus No kidding, its really the U.S. Government that put the laws in. really for emission and safety reasons. cough* Hummer* cough*
The government also assisted in making sure the electric transportation was replaced by the Hummer has well, lol.
Katrina Hernandez OH IM REALLY PISSED OFF
I cringed so hard. My soul hurt badly after seeing that.
These guys deserve to get crushed
THE JUKE? WHO TF WANTS A JUKE
Girls at my school
Robert Austin soccer mom's and the elderly
people without eyes
Not even my mom wants a Juke. She's a safety fanatic. Me? I'm a crazy teenager who wants a fun, dirt cheap car. When I first heard some random facts about the 240 I thought "YES! IT'S PERFECT!" After some more research, I thought "Ok, it's kinda a bit price because of the Drift Tax. Still affordable!" Now I think "Maybe next time, junior."
*nissan joke
Whoa.... the first up to speed. Crazy to see how it evolved. MO POWA BABY
I don't know anybody my age (17) that even wants to be associated with a Juke. That car looks like trash
Cedric Bolduc that is a trash
the new generation isn't even interested in cars anymore, they just need something compact, practical, and affordable and guess what the Juke fits that bill :(
blame the engineers and marketers too, the engineers prolly thought it's nice for customers to have a bit of a higher ride height and little bit of extra ground clearance to drive over bad roads and curbs, then the marketers prolly thought this is an excellent idea, it's going to be a big hit and we can sell X amount of cars, the dealers try to match that X amount and sell the Jukes to the naive current generation who think "oh yeah that is a great car"
PHANTOM MEDIA - Cars, RCs, and Lego Technic
No wonder NIssan wants to modify Eclipse into cross SUV. WTF!!!!
I'm sorry I'm not a hippie I would rather ride my bike than drive a juke thanks anyway Nissan
AWBurd I am but I wouldn't be caught dead in a juke
I ride a bike and it fucking sucks ballsack sauce I'd rather have the juke tbh
I’d rather have like a fit or something. Juke is probably the most tragic looking thing I’ve ever seen on 4 wheels.
Juke R has the same engine as the R35 and it has crazy tuning power but if you rather aesthetics than fair enough
Banni really? I didn’t know that the gtr had a 1.6 L four cylinder engine?
That drift tax clip tho... Thanks for using one of my clips in your video. Contact me if you ever need anymore. Ill send you the full res clip.
Clipping Point Media did they even give you credit ?
Clipping Point Media llooo

The real first up to speed
Wow, so this is what up to speed was before james?
Great video! I am the second owner of a stone stock '91 hatchback with "only" 240,000 miles and I still love it!!! I have owned it for 21 years now and will keep it as long as I can get in and out of it (I'm 63 years old and the knees complain a little about the low seat height)! It is still a joy to have young guys in fancy newer cars give a big thumbs up and want to "talk 240" for a while!!!
I love these documentary style car videos that teach you about the car. I'm now craving a 240.
That was a really really good video! Great job donut media :D
+BenXL Thank you!!
Best video ive ever seen, so detailed yet not overly done. good pace and i can understand what your saying, no stupid jokes. it was awesome good job
Brooooo Donut has changed soooo much, major throwback with this video
9 must know facts about the BMW 3 series, would be a fantastic video...
Where is S10 /S11 and S12?
Zuze91 weren't called a 240sx as far as I know, and are nowhere near as popular.
idek what they were thinking with the s11
Zuze91 Broken and rusting in fields.
"The Juke is a much more effective way of going to market" Oh my god, they think we want the Juke????
Damn I miss my 89 240. I still have it it's just sitting several states away in my parents garage. But thanks for letting me know it's not worth $1,500. I thought that seemed awfully low for something and so much demand. When it wasn't sitting in the garage my mom would call me at least three times a year with people leaving notes on it asking if I wanted to sell. Hell no! That's my first car!
my dream first car lmk if u do ever sell it
It's there for your taking, get it yet? I miss mine as well :(
@@MrBryant240sx I moved pa in November. I have since got it running. Needs a little bit more $ thrown at it and some rust fixed but I drove it and damn near creamed myself the first ride back
That’s wild I have a ‘89 S13 hatch that’s been sitting on the side of my parents house in California for the last 5 years since im stationed on the east coast it hasn’t moved. Original single cam KA automatic in that ugly red color. Rhd conversion, SR20 red top, 5 speed, repainted plum crazy purple from a 70’ Barracuda. Every christmas when I see it I almost cry. 4 dry rotted flats, seized Z32 calipers, spider webs, rat shit and this last christmas I came back the SR wouldn’t turn over. Still a west coast car with no rust. They receive so many offers for it, they stopped responding to the post-its left under the wiper blades. Gonna get a full restoration one day when I stay there for long enough, until then its a shell of its former self. Great first car when they were cheap asf in 2013 tho.
Love your guys content, and donuts.
How about the 86 old and new?
I’m from gen z and I can confirm NO ONE NO ONE HAS WENT "Oh mom I want a juke as a first car"
Ohhhh helllllll nahhhh
Thank u I am now an expert on 240s and will flaunt my knowledge at all car meets
The first up to speed
couldn't care less about drifting I just love how stylish the 200SX looks :(((
9 facts about 3 series, these videos are awesome
9 facts about the e30! :D
e36
Fact #1. Dan got a motorbike in the side of his.
This gent is super under rated!!! thanks for always making me laugh ^_^
Sometimes I go bacjt to watch these older videos... boy old Donut is... different!
I'd love to own a Nissan 240sx, since it's a pretty good beater car, but the drift tax might discourage me from doing so. I might spring for a Volvo 240. Hey, not much of a looker at first, but it can make a good drift car with some tuning, and a daily driver when you need it most.
Everytime I see a video on S13s or Silvias or 240SXs or basically the S-chassis I amazed no one mentions the 3 back to back to back IMSA GTU Championships the S13 has won back inthe early 90s.
I love it but names always confused me ,that was really helpful,awesome video
Thankyou For The Tips🤟
When I see a 240sx I cry thinking about the thousands that have been thrashed by drifting.
This is when " 'donut' media" was " 'doughnut' media"
Great video!!! Fun and educational! Would you guys ever do a video on the Datsun 510??!!!! THANKS
Pretty sure I have seen every video yall have put out more than once. So I'm gonna need some more content flowing.
Beautiful
great vid guys. snatch up those manual is300's people!
+Garrett Martin I know right. I have been thinking about that too.
+ Garrett Martin snatched my bone stock sport design, even with factory LSD
+Mogo McG got mine a couple years ago. found a bone stock one with 80k miles, 5 speed with LSD. they're getting real hard to find in clean condition and stock. right now mine is being prepped for a big single GTE swap.
+Garrett Martin nice! i may go Na-T one day, but right now i'm focusing on suspension mods!
I love the early 90s vibe to this. Such memories
I've had my 200sx RS13U (european spec, which comes with the CA18DET) for 14 years. I bought it from an 82 year old man, Mr Price, who stayed in my home town, Cape Town South Africa. He imported it brand new in 1992 from Belgium to South Africa. I bought it from him (I was the second owner from brand new) for R18 000 ($1158) in 2008, it had 78 000km (48 000 miles) Full service history, everything was OEM, including the rims, radio, sunroof bag, full tool kit and jack and some other OEM goodies from Nissan in Belgium.
After 14 years of ownership, she still puts a smile on my face, hearing the turbo and exhaust sound. Looking at her all polished and clean always makes me think what a beautiful car that Japanese made.
My 200sx still is OEM, with a full service history, original radiator, original shocks, original springs (never cut), still stock height, original rims, original midnight blue paint, the only upgrade i ever did to my car, was a stainless steel exhaust and T28/T25 turbo, original exhaust manifold, original injectors. She is making a reliable 158kws and 285nm. The current milage is a very healthy 184 000kms (114 332 miles) still full service history, i change the oil and oil filter every 5000kms (3100 miles).
If you guys would like to see pictures of my car follow me on instagram @200sx_ca18det
Lets hear some stuff about E30 BMW's or just the 3 series in general
+Blake's Garage In Europe E36 is the new drift king. E30s are getting more, and more expensive each year.
darek4488 Yeah I keep seeing lots of E36 getting drifted around the Euro tracks.
9 facts about a miata
mx5 na
That would be cool!
+Cory Schilpp Haggard fan spotted
+Donut Media just a little lol
Eunos Roadster
I own fully loaded s13 hatch back and I love it. Best rear wheel car in the 90s
I am SOOOO glad Jman phumphrey's took over this! He made this show legendary with his attitude, dedication, and appreciation for CARS!!!!! Thats donut!
I dont know is it true but I heared than 180sx means its 1.8 ca18det, 200sx means 2.0 sr20det and 240sx means some kind of 2.4 l engine
Gedas alekveravičius KA24e (89-90) KA24DE (91-98)
All models or 240sx used Ka24? Btw Honda has KA-series engines.
Gedas alekveravičius Honda has a KA engine but all 240sx came with a 2.4L KA24de or KA24E. 180sx came with either a 1.8L CA18DET, 2.0L SR20DE, or a 2.0L SR20DET.
No it's not as simple as that and most people get very confused.
The 180sx was originally a 1.8 turbo in 1987, then they changed to the 2.0 turbo in 1991, but the name stayed as 180sx. Later models around 1994-1998 came with the SR20DE non turbo option.
The European s13 200sx only came with the 1.8 turbo.
The s13 silvia was never sold in europe
We only have the 200sx s13
And at 0:37 he says that. Are you blind?
We don't have the coupe, that's what i ment to say
Yes , you’re right and also the american coupe has technically a silvia s13 body but with 240sx front end but they show a photo of silvia s13 in video
Roby pugliese you didn't hear what he said = you're blind...
Wait, what?
Omg First up to speed episode

Umm, sorry, but I think 200sx s13 coupe was never officially sold in Europe, correct me if I'm wrong...
You are wrong
No he's right. We only got the hatchback.
The coupe with the pop ups was only sold in the US.
You are right, only pop-up headlight hatchbacks here! If you see a coupe it is certainly an import
In Ireland we have the hatchback but I've never seen the booter version
Lexus sc300 or Toyota soarer
Soarer bcuz 1jz gte
sc300 bcuz 2j
I love you rosa...
No you shut the fuck up. We don't want these beloved cars to succumb to the drift tax.
Oh yeah yeah
We need more of these videos
S14 2nd owner bone stock, clean title. Counting my blessings.
Skyline

9 Facts About the BMW E30 325is. Please!!
what a nice content anyway!
Love how they added FIAT there ❤️🧡💛💛💙💜🖤
The s13 is the best because it has pop up headlights. I don't give a shit if the others are lighter or have more power, hell, I don't give enough shit to check the differences besides the chassis, because they don't have pop up headlights. The only exceptions to this is the Nissan Skyline GTR's.
1994 Mazda rx7 > 240sx.
Unless you want to actually drive the thing around in a city, as a daily driver.
hell yeah, them pop ups r so sexy, u tell em!
GermanGameAdviser
Pop up headlights are life.
Some Weeb if you love pop ups, why not show some love for the mark III Supra
MkIII Supra love for days! And this comment response was so car normie it hurt...
Let them know how you feel by not letting your mom buy a fucking Rouge and Maxima lol
I had the s13 240 sx SE cooue Red manual..i had great great times with the hand brake also.
browsing and finding out the first up to speed 240 is insane, re do it with my 240? I'd be so down to lend it out for a refreshed episode
whyyyy why not s16? :'((
“cheap” lol aged bad
EDIT: i promise you gen z doesn’t want to drive a juke, no one wants to drive a juke, but it’s usually what they can afford
Love it when they mention initial D
It's pretty nice to watch this as an owner of a unicorn s13
what was that movie at 2:50
that was actually a music video featuring Eminem drifting his personal S13
If you look up “Option DVD videos” you can buy them for cheap
People who have Juke dont even know that it is nissan.
In Australia it was always called the Silvia, and also had the separate model of the 180sx, we shared the same market as Japan.
Want information on parts Dealers enjoyed your video!
The Juke is a joke.
OI YOU FORGOT KENJI!!! HE HAD A 180. ALSO THE 2 GUYS FROM TOKYO
Also at 2:40 IT'S MAKO NOT MAKA!!!!!!!! BAKA!!!!!😡
Im getting this to be my first car!!
Love it at 1:28 when they Say it's not twitchy and they show mad mikes Miata because that's exactly what I thought
datsun z
The juke...
Really
DOPE AF
the S15 was marketed in Australia to the drifting community. i remember ads in car mags with it doing doing skids back in the day.
Would be nice to find a good one that's not been drifted that can be made into a nice daily driver and track car
the juke ?! wtf ew
Videos are awesome just need to be a little bit longer
Hey donut media make more of theses videos
The Nissan juke is aids wtf they thinken
if you can't get a 240sx, miata is always the answer.
Awesome Dude slow and gay
Awesome Dude
240s are just B-A-E doe and Miatas seem too compact😷
I've been thinking about getting into drifting and yes i'll be using the 240sx and make a fun career out of it.
yea you aren’t gonna make a career out of it my friend. the best way to make a small fortune in racing? is start out with a large fortune.
Thanks for helping with price inflation, I've got my coupe already
