Happy thanksgiving!

Adam: I think we're gonna use launch control on this pass. Launch Control: I'm about to end this man's whole career.

Engine: I'll send a rod through this block Transmission: I bet I make this car go nowhere Differential: : "Hold my beer" Kaboom lmao Happy Thanksgiving all

ZERO DISRESPECT! But learn to preload 😂 you dumping clutches like your drifting is causing all the problems. I broke 2 axles before i learned to preload an launch properly. Honestly works wonders!

I guess the Cobalt with electric turbo is officially faster..

B I L L E T B L O C K you won’t

Keep it red white and blue for even more Leroy troll 😂

Adam “I like how it’s red white and blue Me “But it’s Japanese

Adam: "Gonna use launch control." Zeroy: *Chuckles^ "I'm in danger."

“I didn’t think that would happen”- wearing a “drive until it breaks” t shirt while launching a twin turbo stock diff car

I don’t think he’s going to get much seat time in a broken car 😂

Adam: *Blows Diff* "Saw that coming..." Also Adam 2 minutes later: " I honestly didn't think that was going to happen" hahaha, total bummer but that's racecar life man! Build, race break and repeat

Gotta use the same clutch like leroy "thats actually slipping on purpose" :)

the irony of you wearing that t shirt saying "drive until broken" :D

Adam: *builds 700hp z without solid diff bushings or diff brace* 370z: *stud on diff snaps and greades itself* Adam: *surprised pikachu meme*

Happy Thanksgiving! This year of content has been amazing! Hope the rest of the year goes just as well! I bet 2020 will be the year of the Super Flex! Edit: I love that you're doing a drag build! It's definitely tough on parts, but once you get it figured out and make a killer pass, it's all worth it!

13:27 Shulman got me on that one hahaha

"I knew that was going to happen" 20 seconds later: "Sorry drag race people I didn't think that was going to happen" ME: 🤔

Like it when u are so honest and real. Not scared to show your bad moments. Keep it up and stay with your feet on the ground or in your case on the pedals

the year of flex is almost completed :( I vote to change it to the decade of flex

I’ve been getting a hella old LZ vids recommendations on KZfaq lately

Zeroy is just perfect I laugh more every damn time

Great content! Sorry about the diff/driveshaft... listening to everyone pull their feet off the track while pushing the Z back though was pretty funny... Happy Thanksgiving! Hope to make it out to the open house !

6:45 "All these cars look slow" haha idk why that part made me laugh so much

Nice E46 M3 there 2:05

Man these tires hook way too hard for this drivetrain 😂

#AdamLz #Zeroy Hats off to you for trying your hand at a whole new motor sport that can be quite brutal. Seriously thought front to back immediate problems I can see, and other things that I believe would help prevent future carnage (I grown up with drag racing my whole life) 1. Polyurethane motor mounts (or something to stabilize the motor more) 2. Bigger, Better transmission cross member with a poly mount. The cross member needs to connect the two frame rails, and it can't just bolt to the floor pan. Look at how the Burnout Kings in Australian reinforce their chassis (box and solid weld every structural joint/component possible) and apply this knowledge to your car build. (High rpm launches tend to cause stress fractures in sheet metal... spot welds will break, sheet will literally rip apart. ) Drag racing is a fight against the clock but also extreme shock loads and torsional twist to virtually every component of the car, anything you can do to mite gate or eliminate that is a step in the right direction. 3. All the rear suspension needs to go... If Zeroy really hooks and the drive train holds, it will start pretzeling all those little chamber arms, upper and lower swing arms, traction arms, toe arms, and the cast parts will crack and break from the extreme shock loads. I don't think you need bullet or titanium parts by any means, but something stronger than stock. Coil overs YES at least on the rear, so you can adjust it for the launches. Bigger sway bars do help despite what every one says "It's dead weight!" it helps mite gate the torsional twist of the rear end suspension, helping the car to drive straighter making your life easier. I would try and avoid solid mount bushings and seek out poly mounts when ever possible, they are more forgiving and less likely to break components. 4. The pinion end of the diff needs support. Pinions try and climb when launched hard, this is why the back of the case is broken. The nose off the diff climbs because of the directional change of torque (it was going straight thru the drive shaft, than the diff trys to tell the power "It's time to make a left and right turn to the tires" so you can use it. This is why the car squats (ideally the car has little to no squat... Watch the Australian drag cars, they are really good at accomplishing this.) Simply put the suspension along with the diff is literally trying to do a back flip under the car. The old school solution was called a pinion snubber ( a rubber bump stop at the pinion end of the diff... this can be very harsh and the floor boards need to be properly reinforced to with stand this solution) The more modern solution is a torque arm. (I'm not going to try to explain, lots of science and this message is long enough already, it is very do able if you take the time to do it right) I would like to end by saying this "I personally would call the AMS GTR Skyline guys and see what they suggest as some suspension parts interchange with the 370z and they mite have some good advise." Thanks for taking the time to listen. Best wishes.

I actually really appreciate this series. This is how it’d be for the VAST majority of us if we took on a project like this. We’d have to go for an affordable and often times wrecked/salvaged car and do things quickly/cheaply. These are the issues and brick walls you run into with a build. Keep on with this beast🤙🏽

Blows engine fixes it. Goes to track blows diff. Love the build

ADAM STOP BREAKING ZEROY Edit: also Adam stop using launch controll as all it does is damage. You can pick up your dad in the s13 or s15 Also happy Thanksgiving even though I'm british

you should make a video of your 335i and it just sounds so good with the exhaust and the pops it makes and your 240SX S13 just sounds so good with the exhaust and the pops it makes and i love the pop up headlights and you should make some videos of driving racing drifting drag racing and dyno videos of all the cars that would be sick and you should make some videos of doing tail of the dragon with all the cars that would be sick and you should make an update video on all the cars it has been awhile lol

Correct me if im wrong, but i thought you were supposed to use radial tiresnfor manual cars, and bias plies for automatics. The reasoning i was told was because the radials will spin and take some stress off the axles and diff in a manual car. And in an automatic you can get away with bias plies cuz they hook harder but the torque converter slips and doesnt put as much shock on all the drive components.

370z motor blows... Adam: were gonna fix it in one day Driveshaft and diff breaks... Adam: we don’t have the parts to fix it in one day

Drag race car needs a live axle. Ford 9" for the win!

@adam lz for future reference at the drag strip if you have a pass like your first one please please please just pull over to the side right away and have them check if anything is broke and leaking. If you cracked a rear diff case or trans case you would have just drug oil allllllllll the way down the track costing a very time consuming clean up. It's a courtesy thing!

You should make an announcement when you’re going to the strip, would love too see ZROY rip soon

You should look in to the slipper clutch like Cletus has now.

I would never have these problems with my stock saturn.

Hard to believe that there're places on earth were you can (sort of) legally drive cars like that on the road. You got lucky, lads!

Your just going to have to have built everything with that car haha. I never ran my cars g35s and 350z higher than 3-3500 rpms off the launch and I just ride out the clutch to keep it rolling and not spinning or breaking stuff as far as stock goes, but I never ran mine in the 700hp range either lol looks fun keep up the rippin also I did have one cd009 that didn’t shift as quick as my other ones, not sure why that was besides it had the stock gear oil in it, and with my other ones it’s either Lucas racing gear oil or a mixture of Lucas and normal weight and that way it shifts better when cold.

Building up quite a nice montage of Zeroy breakages 👌

Adam needs to hit the drag strip more often👀

1:46 Dude, *IS THAT A SUPRA?!!*

my favourite thing about adam is that as much as hes a bonafide drifter i love how he does other disciplines of racing especially that he shows it as content and i love the stance and look of the z with those drag wheels

Adam: gonna have to pick another cool car to pick him up in. Must be nice....

21 second pass! Finally a car my old MX-5 would have been able to smoke.

Happy Thanksgiving! If you're going to gear that car to burnouts and drag racing, ditch that manual and get a Powerglide to drop in. You'll go faster and it's better for burnouts.

You’re going to keep blowing HG in the car. You either need a billet block, or Darton sleeves to keep the cylinders from distorting. Then your input shafts become questionable when trying to make a 1000whp plus. After that you might want to consider a stand alone when you’re approaching those power levels or a really good tuner and switch over to Ecu tek.

Adam: * enables launch control* Drivetrain: Aight, imma head out

What color is the chaser No veiws 48 likes Edit: when it blows up billet block

Cleetus had the diff breaking issue for a long long time, i think it is the better to spend the money and upgrade it or do something special like a zr1 diff or something, rather than just to replace it.

"it doesn't like to shift quickly" if your referring to when you let the clutch back out and it doesn't engage quick enough does it have a factory helper spring on the clutch pedal you need to take off?

I’m sensing a pattern with this car😂

Adam: “No ones faster than Zeroy” Leroy: hold my beer

Maybe it would be worth getting a clutch that isn’t as harsh so it doesn’t grab as hard. Would potentially make it easier to slip and prevent u from breaking stuff.

You heard it here first !!! Adam in Zeroy and Cletus in Leroy ... Rocky Mountain race week 2020. Like if you want this to happen !

9:10 u can just hear it tearing itself apart 🙈

My face when you said you was gonna run a 10 🙀

I love the amount of things Adam does in one video . The man is grinding

It's not you Adam. That Nissan & Infinity platform naturally have a mushy brake pedal feel.

I may be a girl, but I think it’s time for a billet block and some internals 🙏

Adam just start with putting a 9 inch rear end from like g force or someone lol dont even bother with another z diff 😂😂😂

Not sure if it will work with the Z, but you should talk to Cleetus and see if you could install a slipper clutch, a similar one to what is in Leroy.

Make the 370 an actual drag car it would be sick man. Put a slipper clutch in it just go balls out man. Happy thanksgiving Adam

Love how you broke the entire drive train now

Need to invest in an ice machine my guy

That track prep though

Do the Aussie thing and put a Dash Mat on the dash to cover the exploded air bag (essentially its carpet , lol . you can buy them pre made in Australia, RHD though)

Before watching, I predict 1/4 mile of 9.7 secs Edit: Turns out it was 21 secs 😂

My morning has been made!

dude, there are these shacks all over the place in florida called "twice the ice" that is substantially cheaper than everywhere else, and they give you more. look into it

So sick!

the shulminator at the end made this whole video LOL had me DYINGGGG

the Christmas tree in the back ground at the start looks so sad :(

Its crazy how fast the builds move on this channel, other KZfaqrs take months to change a radiator.

That drift leg will break stuff every time. Use hand brake to preload and don't worry about "hard launch" until you're used to slipping it. Start at like 2k and drive it off the line...

Vin Diesel, " you never had your car!"

haven’t been this early since calvin had his lexus 😂😂

Can't say I didn't see that coming, but great to see the Z up and running again! Here's hoping the day will come when it can handle a proper beating.

Time for a Ford 9 inch. Happy Thanksgiving!

Launch control 2 Zeroy 0

Adam, that is a stock car, of course it'll start like a stock car 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ 😂😂😂😂

Looks Badass...Hope yall have a Blessed Thanksgiving

To be honest, it was probably first run that did the damage, those lurches were brutal.

Z1motorsports.com bro get the high cap. Diff and everything else you’ll need.

3:13 she can’t even focus on grocery shopping no more 😂 she just wants to know how this passed through inspection 😂

It's okay Adam, you are just figuring out the car and the weak points. However, It is pretty cool seeing you drag racing man! I can wait for the next Zroy videos

14:56 "I'm down to fix this tonight" Adam's Face: Real Shit?

Track prep: Spinnin ain't winnin. Drivetrain: I'll show you spinnin...

You need subframe and diff bushings along with a Bell Raceworks diff brace to be able to launch it. Do all of that and you'll be good, the axles will handle it!

You should put a powerglide in it that's gonna make your times drop a bunch and would slay in a burnout comp when you wanna

Happy Thanksgiving. No the men, don’t do all the cooking. What bizarro world are you living in good sir?

Not sure why but I enjoy the vlogs more when the gangs in FL 🤷‍♂️ either way hope everybody had a great Thanksgiving.

You’ll get there eventually Adam! I remember when you did you first tandems and look where we are now. One year and you have a killer Z and you’ll be good at drag racing! Can’t wait to see that happen :)

Just send it!

Grenade the engine..... Check... Grenade the tranny..... Check... Grenade the diff..... Check... Grenade might be a more suitable name.... Test and tune.... LOL I'm sure at some point Cleetus will wheel it, and probably break it.... Love the build and can't wait to see more content with it!!!

WHAT TIRES IS HE USING? They hooked up like crazy!

He be flexin. Adam is like, so we could not make a pass in my 600hp stock drive train 350Z so lets drop 20k in to it so we can make it down the drag strip.

Personally would love to see you and alberto help cleetus build sick drift car and cleet, dr spray em all and coop help build Zeroy....would be awesome content for both channels id think. Happy Thanksgiving to the LZ fam.

If that's going to be a dedicated drag car you'll most likely continue to struggle to go fast with that trans and rear end combo. Top of 4th gear will only be around 115mph, and the CDxxx isnt 1:1 until 5th gear. You need to run through almost 5 gears to run anywhere close to your goal of 9s or 10's, but 1/4 of the time you're goin down the track you're in between gears.
