Is Grant's dad gonna buy him a z so he can fit in with all the other kids

Tommy looking at thousands of dollars in engine upgrades and is like, check out this ground wire! Lol

The Z is in good hands with Josh 🙏

Love when Tommy decides to refresh his cars. Its always worth it. Also never heard him once call this a "build" or mention anything full custom.

Best automotive content on KZfaq. Keep it up boys. Much respect for you and your crew. Goals: buy GTR that isn't clapped out and get it Fyeah spec.

Josh is hammering down on the projects at jdmspace garage!!

I wanna see more of Ben’s welding.

everyone needs a friend like josh, buys a car and josh is like yeah i have worked on it lmao, and just goes to town

Tommy's shop needs a second floor lol

Papa Tom over here sniffing the air like my dog does

On this season of hgeu, all the boys buy Zs. Grant is 100% getting a Z

You can't rush quality. I'd rather have quality over getting something back that's unfinished and not dialed. Just as long as I know what's happening.

I so enjoyed every second of this one! The combination of technical info and beautiful pieces of work really does it for me.

I don’t know what you pay Josh, but it’s never enough. lol

For the shop you should get a Smudge pot. They burn motor used motor oil. It’s a fire place and they burn clean, and vent it out of the shop. Basically free to run. Look on market place they are everywhere

I’m upset Nissan shadow fixed this issue and never addressed the issue with the gallery gaskets.

Grant's getting a Z car, everyone's getting a Z car! I'm sitting at about 120k on my DE, it's gonna need a lot of love real soon. I got that car with 89k a few years back and it's been mostly good to me aside from this past year. While it had a lot of service history I quickly discovered there were a ton of original parts on it, and I've replaced/upgraded a fair few things over the years. 2021 saw a lot of things breaking every 6-8 weeks which was super fun. It's going to get a full engine refresh and I'm gonna take it off the road and rock a turbo Subaru instead. Got an older FXT for dirt cheap off a friend and already have everything for a complete engine refresh/upgrade as well as Cobb stage 3 (in their terms), should be a fun 300ish whp beater when it's done.

💥 NEXT VIDEO = Going to pick up LZ's new-to-him R32 GT-R with Grant ❗

I really, really, really wanna send the GT-R over to get a full body/susp restore and a bunch more strengthening upgrades. Just need some time to replenish the GT-R life funds xD

I wish we had a better scene with these cars here in the uk. Don’t see them much here. Perfect platform for drifting. But drifting is just not as popular as traditional racing or rally here. We also mostly have boosted 2l engines. Our aftermarket parts are also hard to come by. With all our insurance an emissions regulations you can’t even remap an ecu without having to declare it and paying a fortune in insurance. Particularly for young drivers. You guys in America just don’t get how lucky you are. Wish we had your freedom and gas prices! My first car was a 75hp 1.1l Ford Fiesta. I payed £3k for the car and £1700 insurance at 18 years old. The only positive is most of our cars are manual. Not many automatic transmission here. Good luck brother. F yeah!

The difference between Tommy and everyone else...? No one except him has ever looked into an engine bay and said "Check out this brand new ground.Look how good that looks"

Love seeing the how to build now. As for your chains, try a Pontiac 3.4 that has both a chain and belt for the 5 cams.

Behind every great KZfaqr there is a crew that deserves their flowers shout out to the boys that keep things moving 🏎💨💨for the boss💪🏼🎥🗣Lets Fucking Gooo🏁

Josh has got You covered !!!!!!!! He’s a gem

“Cars aren’t getting worked on” aren’t there like 30 skylines at your shop of course some probably aren’t being worked on yet. Especially with only one mechanic

*“We have a special guest I mean we have a guest”* *Brutal*

You should do assembly plates :) "this vehicle was build by JOSH"

That's the dumbest timing cover ever, I have a friend that's been a mechanic for 20 years that worked on one VQ and said he'll never touch another because of how long everything takes to do on them the customer never wants to pay the labor rate so instead of quoting people he just says no now... He compared it to working on the 300z but said the NA 300z is a little easier

Josh is so gangster 😳 10x better than Dom , and us Doms dont diss other Doms but damn he makes us look bad

I still don't see why you keep the twin turbos. Wouldn't a single turbo clean up the bay and make it a shit ton easier to work on? The new Garrett turbos spool insanely fast so I just don't see the benefit of it, unless your doing it just for the nostalgia.

My man Tommy’s nose started going crazy when he smelt that gear oil😂😂😂😂😂😂

Nah bro these KZfaq mechanics could do a full resto on a rare JDM car that was never sold in the states in 2-3 days easy

Gonna work my ass off so one day I can have the knowledge josh has or close to it, guy really inspires me

Turns a paint booth…to a parts room. NOW THATS SMART

Great content, Tommy! Josh, is the definition of Master Mechanic!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Seeing y'all do gallery gaskets on the Z brings back Nam style flashbacks of doing this exact same job in my friends garage in the Texas summer.

All the people mentioning cars aren’t getting done forgetting the fact the Tommys standard is higher than how they left the factory. Customers are paying for a service and he’s making sure they get perfection, and I doubt the owners mind the wait when they know what they’re getting.

can we dedicate a 20min Video of Josh Assembiling a Engine!?

It's junk dood, unlike that mint one in the attached shop.😉

Fucking Grant.. "I'd be SHOOK if you couldn't buy just the condenser itself." 😂 😂 😂

Grind the welds and use Stainless steel shot blast it will hide the welds on that oil pan

"Why is this leaking??" "I don't kn.." "FIX IT" I'm getting Gordon Ramsey vibes lol

Im waiting to hear your opinion on 350z, 370z and the infiniti versions. Do you see them going to be legends like the skylines?

3:21 Honestly that's how I want my oil cooler to be. I don't mind it going all the way to the passenger side, but my original goal was to sneak it between the intercooler and a/c.

Water pump is another thing on these vq. Its sealed by two o rings and when the first o ring fail, it leaks coolant through the side of the block and when the second o ring fails it goes straight to your oil pan and can be looked as head gasket problem😂 I am working on doing the same exact job or vq de and it sucked scraping off insane amounts of rtv lol

I don’t think people fully understand the struggle to get parts right now. On the outside it might look like nothing gets done on the GTRs, but it’s not your fault because parts just aren’t available and you only have Josh

Maybe I was hit in the head as a child. But I have secretly kinda liked how the z's sound. I know they get a lot of hate for the exhaust note but I don't mind it. Can't wait for drifting content. Keep up the good work boys!

“NiSmO cAtCh CaN” only you would be so excited about that dang catch can you showed us three weeks ago 😂

Hopefully one day I can grab an R32 before they get even more expensive and rare. I'd love an fyeah restoration. So sick

Josh is the GOAT. I would 100% trust him to work on my cars. Tommy, try Nivea Smoothness, it is unlike any other.

I know it's not your style but paint matched to body color oil filters would be fire on some of those engine bay's. Already have paint in the gun when you do each bay so you could spray a couple and send them with each customers build.

Grant getting 370z also .. must be nice 😊.. that project you doing to you’res 370z my family shop charge $2700 for it and since you’re there we also tell customers to add oil catch can and replace vavle covers gaskets and water pump kit .

I have an R33 GTR here in Oklahoma. Where can I get more info on your options and pricing for what you can do with it?

they lower both ratios and thicken the splines on the gears to make it stronger so you'll have technically the same ratio it'll just be heavier then stock as well

The quality of you and your guy’s work is insane. You guys are killing it. Juggling content for a dope as KZfaq channel, a shop, and still having a personal life outside of all this I’m sure is pretty hard. We appreciate the quality of your content and attention to detail you and your shop provide. Thank you. 💪💪

Dustin Williams is about to get that FYeah spec treatment

Tommy show us how to clean the transparent OEM reservoirs please! Clean reservoirs, and fluid looks good! You know whats up!

Pappa Tomm, how are any of us supposed to keep up with this outright big ballin?

Cars aren't realy getting done, merch isn't really getting shipped but hey can't sleep on buying wheels asap. But for real long time watching this channel. I knew before buying stuff that getting anything from tommy was kinda a meme

I want to see meat possum! Hope he's doing well!

I'd effin love to work @ Tommy's shop so many different projects to get experience with!

Daamn u pulling alot of views over these last vids, congrats dude the content has been fire lately so the views are well deserved

Special guest coming + Track car = Dustin Williams

It's insane seeing all those cars around the shop. 🐐

The shine off Tommy’s head is better than most the of rudnicks cars

did people get their t shirts from the civic yet?! i didnt get mine yet

Is Dustin Williams headed your way with his R32?

It seems like it would be much easier to just throw a 2jz in that Z rather than rebuilding it

Bens Grind Hole 😂

Do you have an extended oil pickup to take advantage of that deeper pan extension?

You DO NOT impact the galley gaskets covers. YOU DO NOT IMPACT THEM.

Frenchys performance garage does upgrades for standard cas sensors to make them work like a trigger kit so you won't loose that oem goodness

are you chopping that oil pan and doing a deeper pan mod and extended pickup? maybe add a qt or two to total capacity? and dude im in RI and work in Mass. and i fucking feel you with the chapped lips. i started using blistex its a "medicated lip balm" shit works good. you can get in like the checkout line at any store. the cars are looking fantastic as well. kept watching and my question was answered. dope video.

And Josh is the GOAT mechanic. Only thing left is to get a Dyno and a tuner then everything is complete???

That S1 is fuggin clean

Any updates on the merch from the civic giveaway? I still haven't gotten a email about delivery or anything... Trying to sport my OEM Plus Shirt to represent 💪💯👍

Greddy / Trust extended sump on the oil pan. Edit: Didn't realize you would show it in the same vid lol.

SHOULD HAVE VR30 SWAPED IT!!!!! Made it oem+

The stock hardware on the gallery gasket covers do then to loosen by themselves.. they why ppl use the hardware with the ECS Tuning kit.

Need to run aftermarket gally gaskets rip oil pressure

I work on those engines every day. The oem oil galley gaskets are paper. They are trash. Only bad part about that engine. Also the chain is easy.

Holy fuck watching that timing job on the Z makes me shudder. I just got the last of my parts for my IS timing job, and it’s like playing with legos compared to that.

The zink coated shit is dope af

So basically no cars are finished just like they said on Facebook?

Don’t lie Tommy we all know your only friends are will and grace next door haha

Probably should've used EPS gallery gaskets for the Z tbh

I bought a really clean z from azirsona. 160k. Makes 30psi of oil pressure at idle and 90 during a pull. So imma just unbolt that black cover and do the tensioner haha. I don't wanna pull that all apart yet haha.

Just a reminder that the 14+ metal gallery gaskets will still go bad after a time they’re better than the paper gaskets in the earlier model engines but you still have to do it and the gallery gasket job with someone that knows VQs will go so easy

The thing is your work is amazing and you’re very good at your detail you love your detail into the engine base I like that and that’s why your work does take a bit longer than normal if anything I don’t know why people don’t think your car is it getting built day they don’t get built in a day do day especially when your hand building some of the parts yourself your spray in the cars you’re doing everything yourself so one stop shop

So has everyone gotten their merch already? Because I’m still missing my stuff I ordered on October.

I'd like to see some of Josh's personal projects/vehicles

Hopefully your picking up ckanes civic

A d.a sander will hide welds better than any sand blast could. It also leaves a similar finish to the sand blast but takes off more material.

Well done josh I did them gaskests on my z big job to take on especially with 3 timing chains took me a full day of cleaning and replacing parts hope tom gets you some beers in!

The Evo 4 finally arrive?

*I noticed a lot of aftermarket gaskets are metal with a paper, and rubber coating/topping like a three layer cake*

Every time someone sees those blue couplers they are going to make it a problem.

Where’s filmed at?

Lee’s car is so nice and Bowman’s is just nuts. Id keep the blue couplers tbh in that bay. I honestly cant wait to see you’re gtr get the treatment

I may have missed but y’all should also do the heater core hose
