[joshoelrey]

[heymisterderp]

Zamn!

Why aren't we neighbors? I'd bring hot cocoa over every day to hang out in your garage and learn by helping you!

[yotafreek]

@heymisterderp , I'd rather have coffee pls.

[heymisterderp]

@yotafreek Only the finest Columbian Supreme coffee for you man!

[joshoelrey]

[germomr2]

Hey this car is awesome! take her of it when it's done. I have an L28 which I'm using a Turbo with 30k miles off a srt4 ....Where did you manage to get that exhaust system?

Good job keep us posted.

[yotafreek]

@germomr2 Exaust was custom made by a local shop.

[leighThe4th]

how much have you spent on it ?

[yotafreek]

@leighThe4th

I wont even tell my wife what I spent on this.

[Oddmanout84]

@yotafreek That's normally how it goes. I won't even tell myself how much I've spent on mine yet, lol

[yotafreek]

@leighThe4th my secret

[skylineracer360]

hmm how much is it taking you now??

[lcvd1]

Are you selling it now?

[yotafreek]

Nope, not selling it. It's not even done yet. Bought a house and need to work on that for a while. I'll have it back on the road for the summer.

[flatl1n3]

awesome build!

[jthefreeker]

where did you get that exhaust manifold?

[M0thaphucka]

your garage is a mess i cant wait to get mine fixed up

[tech87]

Lookin nice, can't wait to see it running!

[Spadadiforza]

Sorry, but the zero offset wheels are for newer cars only.....you're missing that critical outer lip... :-(

Look at Polished panasports for a better look.

all else looks like it is coming together quite well.

[yotafreek]

Personal preference I guess.

[DragonInfraXtremeRGT]

im interested in buying a 1978 280z i could find any on auto trader. where should i check to find one . im looking for one in good condition. how much will it cost me.

[yotafreek]

Just check your local listings and wait for one to pop up.

[DragonInfraXtremeRGT]

i already checked i couldn't find any and i dont know where to check

[barthoedemaker]

I love that color on a classic z, gives it the vintage look.

[snowflakemizu]

is it carburated or fuel injection with that turbo set up?

[yotafreek]

EFI controlled with electromotive combuter.

[bandito08]

hello maybe you can help me out where can i find a l28et motor? i cant find them anywhere maybe im not lookin in the right places, i live in new mexico.

[Diller2]

Car looks great. I'm trying to buy one after I finish my civic project. What are they like to drive?

[yotafreek]

2200lb rear wheel drive with inline 6, IRS. Lots of fun.

[yotafreek]

Well, this is a 240z with a L28 swaped in but it still has the L24 Valve cover.

[snowflakemizu]

where did you get that engine? local area or some online place?

[yotafreek]

Well i got the engine from a 280z parts car. Locally

[LynxOGrady]

....wait a sec. If this is a 240Z, it would have an L24 not an L28. The 280Z Had a L28 i thought

well anyway, the 240Z is such a good looking car thought

[sphinkterx69]

[MisterBaz1]

Quick question, where did you order your Wilwood brake kit from?

Awesome build.

[yotafreek]

[FalconXE302]

If you're doing all that work yourself... cudo's to you... well bloody done!!!!

[juggnautbitch]

[AstroandyQQM]

What block and head you using

P 90?

[yotafreek]

[cambellschunkky]

real wood brakes ajajaja jk

[crzy88crzy88]

I saw your car at the Z shop in Surrey last week. Very nice! big bucks!

[yotafreek]

Yea Thanks,

I got sick of not working on it so I had him install some Stainless fuel lines for me and make a couple brackets. Hopefully i'll have more time in the near future.

[zfreak1981]

looks great so far. i wish mine was almost finished.

[kingofbikes69]

Everything looks great but get some real seats.

[yotafreek]

Haha,, I wanted comfort, leather and heat. I'm kinda doing the high end sports car thing. It should make more sense once the custom wood interior pieces are made.

[kingofbikes69]

Wilwoods! GC Coilovers! L28T! T5! This car means business! Its gonna be sicker than you think man! But whatevers comfortable to you I guess Dude!

[71DatsunZ]

Looks great! I have the same "1000 parts near the car" Z in process too.

[chav300zx]

Awesome ride. I was wondering, where did you get the 5 lug conversion? I would like to do that to mine, so i can put some willwood brakes on mine. I would really appriciate it.

[yotafreek]

Arizona Z Car.

It's a  AWESOME KIT....

Cheers,

[bizerk2o6]

[nismo218]

[whatsupdoc96]

[hsc87]

[mengo530]

[jrockisthebest]

Nice, is it running now?

[yotafreek]

no, I'm WAY behind. I still need to finish the fuel system, Airbox and all the wiring.

[daalp1]

Nice Zed mate; its gonna be one of the high quality rebuilds out there. Keep the vids coming!

[bigdiente]

great beautiful 240z i wonder how do you add a fuel injected enjine on a car with carburators.

[dragonmotorsports]

[yotafreek]

[turbo280z]

[ComradeCharlie]

awesome car/project/build... man you need to organize your shop :D. my room has 300zx parts all over it so im that way too. Im tearing down a l28et from a 81 turbo parts car I have, I couldnt find a 240z for the price I wanted which is like 200 bucks, so im going to use a corolla that I have... hope to have it done by next summer or end of next summer. good luck on your build, looks awesome!

[yotafreek]

I organized my shop and all my parts for 3 hours after making the video. It realy realy needed a cleaning.
