(00:00):
I like appreciate good swaps, obviously, but the majority
99.8% are good morning, good morning, good morning, good
morning, good morning, good morning.
I'm Tommy F Yeah, this garage has zero.
Our goal is just like they made it 30 years.
They should be able to with a refresh make it another 30.
You know, it's just maintenance and and bringing it back.

(00:22):
The six to seven horsepower range is, I believe, the most
manageable for the normal person.
You're not spending too much to get there, but you're also not
using a stock 26 that could potentially leave you on the
side of the road. I also grew up skateboarding and
skateboarding as a standard. It's very critical.
If it doesn't look good, don't do it.
I don't want to watch it. Style is everything.
People always think I have an ego because I think like there's

(00:44):
right and wrong. I've standards, but I don't have
an ego. The number one thing I hear is I
don't usually like these cars, but I like yours.
My 350Z, my R33, my 996. Of course, there's nothing OEM
about my car, but it is period correct.
I'm period correct. People confuse OEM, so I'll tell
you what OEM plus is. OEM plus is.
Yeah, I've been wanting this forever.

(01:05):
I've been in the field with wherever they throw at me, brush
it off, pick myself up, moving on a little better.
Hey, Yeah. Ain't no error.
Welcome back to the Circle of Drift podcast.
I appreciate every single one ofyou that stop in every single
week for a brand new episode. And today we are actually at
Garage S0 when I had the chance to stop by while I was in

(01:25):
Connecticut for Grid Life. And we get this chatted up with
Tommy F Yeah. And although he doesn't drift
himself, he does build some pretty wild, not just GTRS, but
plenty other cars and has even helped rebuild Sean Booth's car.
But I know a lot of you guys arehere for drifting and one of the
best ways to get into it now is through SIM racing because it's

(01:49):
way more cost effective. And lucky for you, this show is
presented by SIM HQ so you can always save 5% off on your next
upgrade for your SIM using Code Circle Adrift.
Now I do want to apologize for the late upload this week.
I've been feeling a little underthe weather past couple days so
I didn't get to finish it in time.
But this weekend I am actually going to be at Polecat for the

(02:10):
Chase Bays event that is going on there.
And not only will I be bringing the G35 sedan to drive, I'll
have the full booth set up and possibly, probably if weather
permits, I would be bringing theSIM rig.
So if you have the opportunity and are close to Tennessee and
want to come out see one of the best tracks possibly in the US,
come stop by, say hi and enjoy the event.

(02:33):
But without further ado, let's go ahead and get into the
podcast. Oh, well, yeah, we are here in
probably a familiar place to youguys, but haven't Tommy, you're.
Used to, you're probably. By Tommy, if you had any more.
Yeah, sure. You're used to probably seeing
me. There they are.
Yeah, the hater blockers. The the go fast.

(02:53):
Glasses. Yeah, these are.
These came out when the 33 was released at Nissan.
So you get these no shit with anR33?
How much do those cost now? They're probably like 400 bucks,
300 bucks, but they're like a relic.
As bad as I would expect. They're like a relic, you know,
But it's they're not as bad because probably no one really
wants them. You know, like they sit on that

(03:14):
counter for four. It's like the most worthless
$400.00 in the room, you know? But they're cool.
They're cool. It's a good desk ornament, I
guess. Yeah, and I got a 33 and like
people sleep on the 33. So I like 33 era stuff.
You know, I think that was the era.
Why like 90? 5.
Sure, everyone is until they drive a 33 or 34.

(03:35):
But what like Most people can't though.
So what is that? What's the SO?
Like I would say if you can afford a like modified 32, you
could afford a 33, right? Like they're close 30 threes are
coming down, but the 33 is the best bang for the buck because
you get a lot of 34 stuff with none of the negatives of the

(03:57):
3032 is cool. Everyone you know, everyone
knows it, but it's like a wet noodle.
You know, it's like the interiorsucks and they're like squishy
and but they're cool and they feel really fast when they're
fast, they feel way faster than 33.
Like it's the fast 33 can get old.
My car just made 920 choke. My car just made 922 on the dyno

(04:19):
and like it's it's easily drivable.
It'll haze the all four in second. 920 is easily. 922 yeah,
I was scared too when I first heard it like you always hear
about 1000 horsepower cars yeah it's so hot today it'll make
1000 on a cold day you know it'sin between runs.
We stopped for like an hour yesterday on a car same set up

(04:42):
as mine and the car picked up 70horsepower from just cooling
off. They get so heat soaked, just
not moving, you know, So my car is probably I'd call it 1000
horsepower car and not really be, you know, insecure about
that statement, but I can call it a niner horsepower car.
What does it matter? It's fast, you know, it's really

(05:03):
fast. That's any that's faster than
anything I've driven. Yeah, so me too.
Till that till now. Yeah, well, as far as the 33,
why do you think people have thebad taste?
I think the Internet, OK, so youknow a lot like influencers.
I think back in the day, influencers weren't a person.

(05:26):
It was an echo chamber. So let's just say you and I are
OG Skyline guys and 30 threes are the cheapest, right?
Back in the day they were 30 twos were like whatever wanted
they were. They were easy to get. 30 threes
were kind of like and then 30 fours were were pretty cool.
You know there's still $40,000 Cars 30. 2 is like I assume,

(05:46):
legal at this time, right? No, no, I'm saying like, forget
it. Like let's talk where like Japan
or Australia, wherever you are. So the echo chamber is 33 suck,
you know, And then once that gets said, people won't even
give it a chance. So I get a lot of one thing that
I will. I can say whatever I want.
That's right. One thing I'll suck my own Dick

(06:07):
about is like, I tend to build cars that people don't usually
like. The number one thing I hear is I
don't usually like these cars, but I like yours.
That's like one of the most common things I hear at my 350Z,
my R33, my 996, like people justlike what I do in in those.

(06:29):
I'm not saying I build everything great, but like I
have a way of in my mind seeing things that I like and they're
kind of universal, you know whatI mean?
So the the 323334 thing is like 30 threes are the ugliest stock,
right? So they're going to get the most
pushback. I think they're the ugly stock
and I love 30 threes, but done correctly they look 30 twos kind

(06:54):
of just fall off that when they come stock like there's not much
you can do to make them look better.
So you're kind of topped out with a 32 off RIP.
You know, you do some Nismo air or whatever.
It does help a little bit. Still kind of the same 34 goes
gnarly with like Z tune and you can do all that stuff and I can
do body kits on these cars. You'd have to be stupid to do
like some aftermarket body kit on a GTR, but like 34 looks good
no matter what. And then the 33 you got to kind

(07:17):
of work. I think you got to work to make
it look good. But when you get it, it's great.
You know, like my 33, in my opinion, is the epitome of that
era. And that's what I like about it.
It's not like it's the best looking or it was it's this does
this or does that. It just it's the the gnarliest
era, like 95 to 98, even 95 two thousand was like the JDM era.

(07:39):
That's when shit was like popping.
You know, 34 is always good though no one dislikes I.
Think it 34 is what anyone thinks of when you even mention
the GTR in the first place. One thing I learned though is
like 32 is good to like 6650. They're pretty gnarly at 6:50
like scary uncontrollable ish attimes. 33 is so much longer that

(08:02):
that same power is boring. We build a 650 horsepower 33 and
I'm like this thing something. What is the?
Wheelbase difference. I want to say the total length
difference I might be wrong on if this is wheelbase or bumper
to bumper is 8 inches which is aton.
I know wheelbase is like 4 inches longer than the 34.
I think these numbers are all jumbled in my head. 32 is

(08:24):
obviously the shortest. So you got the most twitchy car.
You know, we put cars on the lift and you can't open the
door. It's like, dude, you know,
because they're just, they're not good.
The torsional rigidity of a 30. Two, were the sedans longer or
is that? Sedans are not longer they have
the same wheelbase, use the sameDr. shafts, all that stuff like
32 I don't know about 3033 is probably the same as GTR 34 is

(08:46):
probably 34 is longer body. The exhaust from the axle to the
rear bumper is much longer than a GTR.
Like the trunk. Wow.
Yeah, the trunk is much longer, but I don't know how much that's
rear seat, you know, I don't know.
It's I don't care about four doors.
I'm actually heavy on 4 doors. I like like A344 door with like

(09:08):
all the arrow. Like I can appreciate them, but
it's like given the opportunity,I'm taking the coop.
Yeah, 10 times out of 10. The 32 four doors.
I like 430 twos. I had a really, really fun one.
We're building 1 right now. Has to be type M has to have OEM
skirts. Very hard to find OEM type M32
skirts but 32 four doors are rad.

(09:28):
The doors tiny though, you know what I mean?
Like the door is tiny but they're super cool cars.
All fun. Well, you, you mentioned the
body kits and stuff. So I, I can kind of understand
from a GTRS perspective not to put an aftermarket kit on it,
but what is like what's your reasoning for that?
Is just staying true to the the?Factory body is timeless, so not

(09:50):
timeless in the sense you don't know what air it's from, but
like trends and stuff come and go.
Factory body, trends, stock arrow.
I mean, my headlights in my 33 were 20 grand.
Stock factory headlights. That's right.
And I was willing to pay it because they were new, they were
good. There is Xenons, they're

(10:11):
special. There's not an aftermarket
headlight under the sun that I would pay 3 grand for, you know
what I mean? It's cheaper, it's shittier, and
it's usually body kits especially.
It's trendy. Shit that was cool in 2000 isn't
cool today. But then it'll come back.
And I don't want to build a car.I don't want to build a car five
times. I've so many cars I don't want

(10:31):
to build. Oh, it's time to update with the
trends. Like I'm not going to do that
build. Five of them.
Yeah, I'll build five of them. The shit that I do to cars is
like, it is nostalgic. It's throwback, but it works
today. It'll work forever.
I think stock aero will work forever if the car is cool, you
know like GT Rs are cool, GTS, TS, Type M, like stuff like

(10:54):
that's cool, aero bumpers. Like look at the money and aero
bumpers getting, you know, for an S13.
What do you drive? That's true.
I have a 353 and then I just picked up AG 35.
Today, so don't talk about that.So it's.
The first time. You got to see that.
You got to see my 3 DZ. It's just a, it's an O five.
I've got Nismo urethane skirts, the like the double hump ones.

(11:16):
I've got the rear spats, gratty lip.
I back dated the front bumper. I forward dated the hood.
I have the HR hood. I've got Nismo Juke R seats.
I got gratty brakes. It's on all lens HKS exhaust
like LMGT fours. That car is like the 350Z, you
know what I mean? And it's not like I did

(11:37):
anything. That's the other thing I got to
say because people think I thinkI'm I got like an ego.
I didn't do any of this, you know what I mean?
I didn't, I didn't help design any of this.
I didn't, I didn't do anything. I'm not taking credit for my
builds. Like I'm just putting the right
pieces where I think they go. It's like an aesthetic thing.
I'm like a curator of a car, like this room, you know, I
designed this room by just throwing shit in it and it, you

(11:57):
know, worked. I take no ownership for what
these cars look like because they had nothing to do with it.
But I do know that my combination looks best to me,
you know, and. That's an interesting way to
think about. It people always think I have an
ego because I think like there'sright and wrong I've standards,
but I don't have an ego. I think the right way to do

(12:18):
stuff is OEM arrow that flows and works period.
If you got some dumb body kid dragging on the ground, it's all
like BN shit. You know BN stuff might look
cool on one car, but people put it on like I want to BN kid, I
want to make this work on my E36.
No, it doesn't. It doesn't do that.
So it's you know, it's like thatPulsar, like that's an

(12:40):
interesting car. Imagine changing pieces of that
car, you know, like that's 1992 has IT B's and an SR20 and
all-wheel drive and like that's an interesting car.
Put a body kit on it to like make it your own when it's
stupid. Is there ever a a line that that
can be crossed? Well, like I put the.
Ready lip on my 350Z. That's not all we am.

(13:01):
It's urethane though. If that lip may be uglier, but
it's plastic, so I'm down with it.
Even if it's a little uglier, I know it's not going to turn to
dust. I know it's going to protect the
bumper and it's going to do whatreally.
That's what they designed that part to do.
That part is not for looks. It looks good, but that's to
protect the bumper when you pullin and out of spaces.
And if you hit it, you can just replace the lip and then they

(13:22):
make it look interesting. That's that's cool.
You know what? About in like the Skyline case,
because like obviously if it's just a GTST like it would you
open if say you got a GTST and it's nothing special and you
finally wanted to make a beater car Skyline like are you still
going to go OEM stuff or is it have?
You seen our GTT, our yellow Alti out there?
I don't think so. OK, so it's I'll I don't know

(13:45):
yeah, I'm going to go OEM stuff.It's going to it's going to
last. That's why it's going to do wait
till you see our GTT that car. It's an Altia, which looks like
a body kit. It's all O OEM.
It's Altia. It's it's like Nismo esque.
It's a, it's a little different,but it's got a big dumb wing and
skirts and a different crazy bumper.
I like it because it's Oh yeah, it's ugly kinda.

(14:08):
But it's like interesting ugly, you know, And I've got like a
Tomei high, high rise wing in the other room.
I've got like weird stuff that Ithink is cool but like, I don't
know. Where you find this stuff?
Like where? Where do you learn about all of
this that. Like just finding it like behind
me is GTR magazine 0 through 50.They came out in 1994, so I've
number one, which is #0 from 1984.

(14:30):
I can look in that and find a lot of stuff.
I had the first HS goods master.So the turbo kit that's on my 33
is in my 1994 goods master and Ican look it up and I can get
specs on it and I can read it like that's cool.
I think the reference material is as cool as the car.
And all these are like the cars aren't a car to me.
It's like a housing for parts that I find interesting, right?

(14:53):
It's like a canvas for interesting parts, not a car
that I want to make different. I want to put there's parts in
this room behind me that I want to put in a car.
Like that's a veil side R33 exhaust.
I don't need to own that, but that exhaust will make me buy an
R33. Like I'll be like, I want to put
that on a car. So buy the car and I'll walk
through this room, find all the stuff like build 4 cars with

(15:15):
shit in this room, you know, like fully built.
I believe that. Yeah.
Well. As far as sourcing them though,
like is it just all importing from Japan?
I'll find some Facebook marketplace buy EI bought a my
turbo kits from Poland. The one of my business partners
cars from Malaysia. You just find them eBay, eBay
UK, eBay Australia, Facebook, Facebook UK.

(15:36):
You know, I'll type of my location as Manchester.
I got a buddy shout out gas in in Manchester and I'll find shit
there and just connections and you got a hunt for the cool
stuff. Yeah, and it's fun that that's
you know, is that your girlfriend, I assume?
OK, so the hunt is fun, you know, for a girlfriend, that's

(15:57):
like an interesting part of it. It's kind of the same thing with
parts, you know, the chase, you find the part, you get to touch
it and feel. That's why I don't like these
like turn 14 pills. Like I just go on turn 14 and
yeah, that's what I'll take. Like, I like using parts like if
they have a turbo that I need orwhatever, but that chase is just
as fun. And then I roll to a Skyline

(16:17):
event or something and no one's got the same shit.
Not all of it, but like a lot ofmyself, no one has the same
stuff and I think that's fun too.
Do so. You're obviously just like
scrolling constantly for the most part.
I'll just type in like BNR 34 and go through 150 pages.
The 1st 10 are really where all the stuff is.
But I'll keep going because I found stuff like I'll tell you a

(16:39):
story. I was in Australia for GTR
festival and I was eating dinnerwith Tamara Sun.
The the. Do you know who he is?
He helped design the 3435. We were talking about stuff and
I was like, he started talking about gearing and he has a 32,
He's in Midnight Club is a 32 with A6 speed and we're talking

(17:00):
about gearing and and he's like,yeah, I had Nismo back in the
day, make 50 sets, a three, seven final drive, 50 sets, a
three nine. So the 34 is a three 55354.
The 3332 has a 411. So if you put the 6 speed on the
four elevens, you get like a quick, quick gearing.
It's cool for like 5-6 hundred horsepower.
It's not cool for 9:00 100, right?

(17:21):
So he was telling me at Nismo Omega set of three 70s instead
of three 90s. So you try them 50 of each.
And I showed him a picture that I had a set of three 90s that
I'd found two weeks prior that I've been hunting forever.
Yeah. And he was like, and he looked
at the price. He's like that's what they cost
brand new, you know, like and this dude, this dude knew the
part number for like Lamont turbos.

(17:42):
Have you heard of R33 LM? Yeah, like the blue one.
Yeah that had special little bitbigger cold side and 1 turbos
specific to that car. That's the turbos he ran on his
32. He knew the part number.
Holy like discontinued for 10 years or something.
I don't know when they discontinued, but yeah, so like,
you know, sharing that, showing him I had a set of three 90s.
We have the same gearing in our car like us and 48 other people.

(18:07):
Yeah. And like so, I've been heavily
wrapped around gearing at the moment too, because on my car, I
actually still have the three five in it and I still have the
five. 50 speeds like drifting wait.
The RB 5 speed, sorry. Oh, why did you do that?
At just that's horrible. It's it's.
That car needs a 410 or 430. Yeah, with A5.
Speed. The way I calculated at the

(18:28):
time, I was just trying to get the swap done essentially so
it'd. Get drivable CD double nut.
So fish. Racing.
More complicated for that specific car to do the swap.
Because it pushes the motor backand then you have to do all that
fucking. Well, the motor so much farther
forward and then the CD is actually kind of like short and
stubby. So the shifting been under the

(18:49):
dash completely. The RV is a little bit longer so
it like it stuck it out a littlebit past.
You want to hear the most controversial thing I'll say on
your podcast? Yes, I fucking hate.
I have to say this carefully andfollow it quickly.
I fucking hate engine swaps. I fucking hate them.

(19:11):
So with that being said, you have an RV 20 and you put an RV
25 in your car. That's not an engine swap.
If your car came with RV 20, youput a 20.
That's not an ensure RV 26. Even not an engine swap.
I hate. I had a 4 cylinder, I put a six
cylinder, I had AV 6 and I put astraight 6 because it does not
work. Period period.
Now if you're going to swap your3 VDZ, you put a VR38IN it, you

(19:32):
put a VR30, you put a 370Z mode out.
That sounds dumb but like you dosomething like that.
You don't put an RB in a car that was designed for AV 6
because it doesn't work. I hate S chassis with R BS.
I fucking despise engine swaps like that.
I've done them. I've done a lot of engine swaps
in my day and the one thing I'velearned is it's trash.

(19:56):
It's trash 100% of the time, every time.
I wouldn't say 100% of the time,I mean that.
It doesn't. You're going to follow that
statement with. OEM, right?
You're going to follow that statement with, but it's a drift
car. Oh no.
That's what all. That's what we always hear.
Well no, no, I'm not going to use that at all because people
do. There's there's literally an RV
swap G35 sedan 15 minutes down the road for me that the do

(20:19):
daily drives has AC on it and everything and it's swapped
incorrectly, just like mine is. So the motors too far forward da
da da da and like but he loves it and he like he enjoys.
So when when does like the personal?
I don't care what he has feelings.
I don't care about like you knowwhat I'm saying?
Like I don't care about like your wants and your desires and

(20:40):
like you're not Nissan. You're not you're not an
engineer. I don't think so.
Your wants and desires are just ignorant.
You're like, I want an RV in my ass chassis.
I'm not saying you. Let's get off of you for a
little bit so no one gets upset I want an RB in my ass chassis.
Like, go ahead. Upset at me for what I say on
the Internet so. Go ahead, put an RB in your ass
chassis. It's stupid.

(21:00):
It's stupid. You could build the Sr. to do
let's say 110% of what you can get that RB to do because your
constraints within that engine Bay are going to hurt you and
now there's 1000 horsepower R, BS, and S chassis.
That's fucking stupid. It's possible, it's doable, but
I would love for someone to say this car is clean and let me

(21:21):
look at it and let me list 10 negatives to it that I could see
immediately because I've tried to do it.
I've tried to do it OEM, I've tried to do it where it would be
like Nissan doing it. I've tried to and it's not
possible because the dimensions are not there.
They designed the car around things and then people are going
to bring up, well, the R34 was designed about a VQ.

(21:41):
It's the exact same engine Bay as an R33.
Identical. I could take parts from a 34 and
put in a. There's a little changes but
like they're the same engine Bay.
I've used aprons from a 33 on a 34 and vice versa.
Engine swap suck. They suck, they suck.
If you put a VR30 in your car, you'd be on stock trans, you'd

(22:01):
have stock weight distribution, you'd have nothing custom and
obviously there's going to be custom stuff.
You'll have not not the level ofcustom that you have, which is a
one off that if it fails or it'smade by some Chinese company, or
it's made some by some guy who doesn't care about St. driving,
or it's made by some guy who doesn't care about track
driving. Like there's too many negatives

(22:22):
to that shit. If you want that engine by the
car came in within reason, you will enjoy yourself 1000 times
more and it'll be cheaper. It will be fucking cheaper at
the end. Wiring specialties makes a
harness for that now to that swap so.
I always say this, wouldn't people bring wiring specialties
dummy proof? This game wouldn't exist without
Yuri and wiring specialties. We all owe everything to wiring

(22:47):
specialties, period. Only wiring.
Specialties What? Like what?
What do you mean by that? Like reason why all this
wouldn't be here. Not this but I'm saying like
this. Swap culture SRS in USDM 2. 40s.
Truthfully, sure, SRS in USDM two 40s is doable.

(23:08):
In the early 2000s when Yuri wastaking in your harness and
merging your K in your Sr. harness, that's what he used to
do. He'd use old old stuff and he
grew to where he is now. It's opened up the doors for so
many things. So many like Chaser.
So like an RB25 Neo in a 32, there's ways to get that to
work. That's probably a bad example

(23:29):
because you can use the accessories from there between.
But like things like that are just so easy.
All bar especially just place anorder.
If you do a bunch of custom stuff, it's going to take you a
while. But if you go with like a chill
set up and you're OK with wiringlike they just made like one JS
valuable. You know because you couldn't
A1J VBTI dude they used to be 1000 bucks because you couldn't
put them in anything except for the car they came in which was

(23:51):
like nothing What A1J VBTI come in that you could get 5-10 years
ago. I mean nothing here.
Nothing here. So like you would have to wait
and get like a chaser, you know,or whatever.
Now you put A1J VVTI or A2J VVTIin a Supra, which is not a swap,
but it is. And that's a, that's a way
better engine. And like, I don't know, people

(24:13):
sleep on it. But like that business and that
brand is, I mean in your car, you couldn't do that without
them. The dashworks and everything.
Like, I mean like he used to. Say wiring.
I hate spies wiring so. Yeah, he he did, he did like a
can conversion with 350Z. Like that's insane.
That's insane. That's such an insane system,

(24:35):
you know, so I don't know. Shout out wiring specialties
always. Yeah, we got, we kind of went on
a wiring specialist, Yeah. But but swaps suck.
But no offense wiring you. Mentioned the Sr. on that point
though so like I guess that honestly proves why people are
so glorified on the Sr. side in an S chassis because truthfully
the way it drives is incredible.It's hard to beat in any other

(24:58):
chassis I would say. I like appreciate good swaps
obviously, but the majority 99.8% are fucking trash period.
We see so much. It's not a single one that you
would like you would get tip your hat to a little.
Bit there's yeah, sure. It's going to take me a while to

(25:20):
think about it, but I can't think of a car that like I OK,
I, I here's one. I got one for you.
Cool. I built a golf bar.
I I worked with a company and built a golf bar.
We did an RS3 drivetrain and a golf bar.
The entire drivetrain, it's 5 cylinder went from 4 cylinder to
five cylinder, 7 speed trans, the DIF, the gas tank, the

(25:44):
seats, the steering wheel. That was a cool swap.
It was dialed. But like at the end of the day,
it's the MQB chassis. It's the same chassis.
It's like doing a 20 to a 25. It's a lot harder, but it's a
swap. It's an extra cylinder, you know
like it, that was cool. I'm going to do a poor swap in
that. I'm going to do A9912 engine in
my 997.1. So that's an O7.

(26:06):
I'm put a 2018 GT3 engine in. There's still falls.
Same architecture, Yeah, like same, same stuff.
So like your RB and your 350Z. Not it, not it for me.
I didn't. You have your fun.
Just for like for one it was my first real swap so trying to
test myself I really loved RV's and the motor and trans and full

(26:28):
swap just kind of like fell in my lap.
And three of these ZS were probably cheap.
I had it already. I have to like.
I have to like always when I have these conversations.
I have to like disclaimer, theseopinions are mine.
Like people think I'm speaking factually.
I'm on a podcast with you to tell you about me.
So I'm telling you my opinions, my opinions and people want to

(26:51):
argue them in the comments on it.
I'm not going to read it. I don't give a shit why you
think you're LS fucking whateverthe fuck is cool.
It's to me it's trash. I'm not ALS fan so I'm not like
I get you. You're RB in your 3D Z, I'll
just say to you. So it's direct, it's trash.
I sure you love it. I'd like to drive it.
I'd like for it to change my mind.

(27:11):
It's probably not. I'm like.
I'll be honest with you too. Like it's.
No one. It's cool you did it though, you
probably learned a ton. And you know, and then some
amount of info, that's what it'sgood for.
I had to do a so much research just to make certain things
work. And like I fabricated all the
motor mounts. So I kind of taught myself how
to fabricate like there was, that's it.
Benefits to it. There.
That's And that's what it's for.Yeah.

(27:32):
And then I'll look at it and be like, oh, you couldn't Weld this
day, you know what I mean? And like, we're good because you
couldn't Weld that day, but you learned to.
I can't Weld but it's because I don't do stupid swaps.
And stupid cars. Not saying it's pretty but it's
two pieces. But.
You're better older than me, youknow, like, I just, I don't want
anything. I'm trying to, like, offend or
insult anyone. I'm just trying to give you me,
even if it's a little on the extreme side.

(27:53):
So, you know, what's the point of this if I'm going to be like,
yeah, that's really cool, man. And then everyone on your
podcast is like, hey, that's really cool for me.
Differing opinions. And everyone built cars like me.
I'd be bored. Yeah.
I couldn't talk shit about anything, right?
If you build cars like me, I'd have nothing to talk shit about.
So and I like talking shit, so that's.

(28:14):
I love criticism, I I enjoy evenlike how you just said you won't
read the comments, I'll still read them.
I'll read them, but they won't. No one.
'S going to change my mind. It's not going to fucking
happen. I'm not going to change yours.
You can hear it. Don't listen.
It's podcast. If you don't like what I've
already said so far, 'cause I'm sure it's going to get worse,
you know? I've got one question on the
topic of swaps. Let's go.

(28:36):
Front wheel drive conversions torear wheel?
What's your opinion on? That as dumb as saying Jimmy O
Come on, I'm tight with Jimmy, but like that car is
interesting, but it's fucking dumb.
Yeah, fucking Civics are. Oh, I'm not talking about, well,
that. I thought you said front wheel.
Too dumb but like as far as likemotors so like K series

(28:57):
converting those to rear wheel drive.
It's a swap. I hate it.
So OK, it's a swap. Like let's blanket statement
that like you want to put AK series in an S2000 and you know,
do all the work it does to do that still swap.
But like I always ask, why do you?
All right, let's talk about you,because you can answer questions
in real time VQRBY. VQI absolutely hate working on

(29:21):
them, there's too much going on.Just simply to do a rear main
seal like I just did. Was you're taking up the whole
upper oil pan off doing all that?
Why do you feel simpler? Why do you feel that you needed
more than what you had? Because that's the RV was like
power, probably you making more power than you used to have.
So yeah, I felt I was capped outon skill level as far as the

(29:45):
power that I had. Boosting and nitrous on a VQ is
questionable, so didn't want to go that route.
And plus I just purely hate the sound of a VQ.
Yeah. So that's one thing that I'll
never take into consideration for a car built.
Yeah, is sound a. Stock exhaust is going on the G
I'm not dealing with it. You should hear my 350Z.

(30:06):
When we're done, we'll have to check it out.
Check it out. I do want to take like just walk
around. Yeah, leave a tour where it was
just crazy a minute ago. Yeah, you can.
Like I said, I'm I'm going to belike a not a prick, but like I
want to like really give it thatbecause this isn't my audience,
right? Circle of drift is in my
audience. I can drift a little, you know,
I can slide a car around. I had a 370Z, did OK.

(30:26):
You're involved with drifting too.
Many friends I always. Do it.
I always do it, you know? Yeah, I wasn't drifting, but I
blew my Colorado transmission uptoday with TJ this morning.
Yeah, drifting, sliding around. So like, I mean, I, I like it,
but this is an audience, so I want to give them all you know,

(30:49):
and like swaps and that type of stuff.
It just, it doesn't make sense. It doesn't, it doesn't make
sense like, but with that being said, I do want to do 1 and I
want to prove to myself again that either I hate it or I love
it. And I'll, I'll tell, I'll tell
you, I'll tell them I want to doan Altezza with an A 2.2 liter
Sr. Really.
Yeah, because because the beams is is dumb.

(31:12):
Agreed. And the one jii would consider
A1J as well or like A2J as well.I would consider it.
But I just think after driving like DJ has a beams, he has a
Altezza and I drove it. I like the way the car fell and
I don't want to mess that up. I've driven a nice 302 without
turbo and stuff but like and I just been driving down the

(31:33):
street taking some corners. I just think A22-SR and Altezza
like is a match made in heaven. I think I would.
Agree. But I'll prove myself wrong or
right, you know. I feel like the four-cylinder
would have better weight distribution.
Better weight distribution, I'llmake like 454 eighty wheel but
no torque. The car's tires suck like tire
fitment sucks on Altezza's wheelfitment sucks on Altezza's.

(31:54):
So you can you can pull off a 245 or 255, make 300, three 150
foot pounds, make 450 horsepowerwith A22 and just have like a
really good car that I think will make cool noises and would
be fun. I don't know though it would be.
Interesting to see. I'm surprised nobody's done that
yet. I mean, maybe they did.

(32:15):
I've never looked it up and it'll be easy.
I looked at it, it would be easy.
How? How?
What do you mean easy? Like what?
It would be easy to have a very similar front subframe.
They use the same transmission as an S15 that I forget what
it's called in that car but theyhave this.
The beams has the same 6 speed as an S15 internally, 5th and
6th gear I think are a little different or something, and the

(32:37):
and the architecture is obviously different, but like
same trance, you know, like there's just something there.
I just that's the weird shit where I start going, like I find
out does the same trans. I'm like, what if it had the
same engine? That'd be kind of cool, but I
think it you know, we might talkmight have cooling issues or it
might hit the steering shaft. Who the fuck knows, but I think

(32:58):
it'd be cool. I yeah, I'd agree.
Now the beams though, you obviously said you didn't like
the beams. I agree with that.
But why? What's what's your reasoning
behind? These are like people say turbo
and do this and do that like that's a cool engine for like a
a 86 or something really light. My buddy built one like to the

(33:18):
gills one time with IT BS and all that stuff.
He made like 186 wheel. So if you look at like the size
and the weight and the the everything, all the details of
it, you could take an NAK 20. So let's say we're talking
swaps, which I don't even know why we're talking, but like
let's say we're talking swaps. You could take you could take
AK-20, make it rear wheel drive and put it in whatever car You

(33:40):
could put a beams in and have a better engine.
K24 have a better engine. The beams, it's kind of like
capped out, you know, it's kind of a little capped out, but.
Do you plan on doing that anytime soon?
We'll. See if I can find a good if I
can find like my spec like DJ spec Altezza is what I want.
It's a black TRD kit, manual like beautiful car, had a paint

(34:01):
job, which I don't love. Beautiful car.
If I could find one, I'm going to find one in Japan.
Like somebody's cream puff. Some old lady's going to have
it. I want a red one or a black one.
I'll do it. You know we have the machine
shop to build a Tutu and it allows me to test our Sr.
program without having to drive a piece of shit 240 I love.

(34:25):
Two 40s. I love two 40s.
I love looking at them. I don't like driving them very
much. I don't feel like piece of shit.
I have only driven an S chassis a couple times in my life
actually, so why if? They're feeling a position when
you when you get in the skyline.A323334GTS TI don't give a fuck

(34:47):
non GTR. Spoiled with all these?
Yeah, they're just a better car.It's like a better chassis.
I think one of the best cars is A-25 Neo swap, 32 GTST Type M.
That's like, I want 1 so bad, but everyone's just raped 30
twos and like I can't find one that meets my standards.
I don't want to build 1. I don't want to paint it and go

(35:08):
through all that. So I'll find some MIT one to do
an engine swap in a weekend likewe did.
We did that to Adam's dad's car.So Adam's dad has what I call my
like dream beater. He's got a 32 GTST with a Neo
with a spectrum turbo, which is a 25 Neo turbo with a 3071
center section. I had one of my 4 door.
I made 493 horsepower, 47 torqueat 35 lbs of boost on ethanol

(35:32):
car walk like Gallardos and four5/8 is, which not is not that
big of a deal, but it's funny tohave a 4 door that's walking
like a 458 or whatever. But that's what I want.
I think that, but it's such a better car.
It's such a stiffer better. It's a grand touring car and
that's Jesse's at fucking Econo Box.

(35:52):
You know, they're write off cars.
That's why they were drifted. They're real driving.
They used to be cheap. Economy cars for sure.
Yeah, but I love like a 2 tone sea foam K's arrow sitting on
there on that lift. I'd love and I'd look at it and
just like that, I wouldn't driveit, you know, being a piece of
plastic. Yeah, that has to become a
problem. It is and where I like get to

(36:13):
the. Point.
It's so nice you just you refuse.
I don't mind driving nice stuff,I just don't drive it cause like
that cars makes 300 wheel and I've got a 3233 and 34 and but
996 and a client turbo. I've got a bunch of stuff that
like I would jump in instead of that clearly you know.
So I don't know. It's sad though.

(36:34):
I want to save that for my son. I want that to be his first car,
but it's kind of nice and he'll probably fuck it up.
Yeah, maybe second car. Yeah, good call.
First car, some Pulsar or something first first.
Well, as far as like the R BS and stuff go, because you've
obviously I guess why have you chose to invest so heavily into
that market given the US, Nobody's really done it in the

(36:58):
US. When we're done, I'll take you
for a ride. OK, No, I don't really.
You'll know. But it's like I've had like
Porsche Turbos and they're greatand I've had Evos and S chassis
and RX Sevens and I've had a Supra and I've had Pulsar.
I've had a couple Pulsars and 350 ZLS swap Colorado Golf RI

(37:21):
mean I've had over 1000 cars well over 1000 cars driven on
the road and there's nothing like a a gnarly GTR.
There's nothing like it. Like my 33 makes 922 hours per
hours like mellow. It's a 3 liter.
I'm like cheating. No RB-30 bullshit is a 26 block
HGS great motor that they made work as a three liter with

(37:45):
AG401150 and it's so fun. And then it's a little much so
so then I'm going to build my 34to be like a little lower spec
below that like 750 wheel, real responsive fawn.
And then my 32 will be like 650 wheel with the sequential light.
You know, if I want to like do some track days or whatever, but

(38:08):
it's just cool. The R BS, the RB and the Sr. are
like the prettiest engines ever.It's it's weird, but they all
absolutely. They're just so like they're
like carved out of like metal, you know, like we, you see,
like, I don't know, I'm trying to think like 2 JS are OK.
You know, they have a kind of that like prettiness to 46

(38:31):
threes. Yeah, yeah, it's like on the 2
J, like the center, I don't know.
But the 46 threes, very utilitarian looking 4 cylinder.
It just works where the Sr. justlooks cool, you know?
I don't know. They're so dressed up.
The RB is the Skyline. They're just, they're great, you
know, And then the RB2J thing ismy favorite conversation because

(38:51):
Freddie is here tuning. He's a 2J guy, real BIG2J guy.
It's like the conversation should never be engine versus
engine because they can't do anything.
Those engines can't do anything without chassis.
But you put a 34 against a Supraand they make the same numbers.
It's a wrap. It's a wrap. 34 is going to
fucking destroy the Supra every step of the way because it's

(39:13):
going to put the power down, Youknow, 405 hundred 678 that there
the, the now we're talking drag racing and slicks and all that
dumb shit like whatever, but I'mtalking like realistic builds
that I want to drive the Skyline's king, you know?
How did you make a business out of all of this though?
Because you had to have been like leery at first starting all

(39:34):
of this because the market just wasn't really there here.
I don't know, I like, I always call this place a spite shop.
I'm built. I, I started my own shop to in
spite of and to spite shops thatI had worked with in the past.
They're all trash. And I don't mean all shops are
trash, but they're all trash that I dealt with and I worked

(39:58):
with and I tried to deal with orwhatever.
And it's like no one is willing to do.
Not no one. I got to watch my words.
If we were talking about camera,I wouldn't have to do this.
But like they're not willing to do.
Not everyone's willing to do what I'm willing to do, you
know, like paint bait. I mean, I didn't even give you a

(40:20):
tour, which is kind of fucked upbefore this, but sorry, it's all
good. But we've got paint in house by
painting body in house. We have a machine shopping
house. We have a dyno in house.
We have mechanical in house. The only thing we don't do here
is zinc plating, you know, So wedo all that to bring these back
like a time machine. I want to be able to go back and

(40:40):
buy a brand new 33. I can't.
So I'll just build 1, you know, as best I can.
But what like I'm trying to cause from a outside
perspective, this looks like a essentially a GTR restoration
shop and that's simply what it is.
I know there's more that goes onwell to make this place
function. Yeah.

(41:02):
There's more cars than just GTRSlike that I mean.
Yeah, sure. But are you taking in like full
on builds and stuff from people like skyline builds?
I mean any I. Guess skyline builds that's it.
So like yeah, 323334 OK, I'll ohS chassis too.
We have a couple S fifteens, fourteens, like big, big spec
builds. That's why we started the

(41:22):
machine shop was like it's a bottleneck, so let's have our
own. You can't.
You can't trust they're going todo what you want them to, ever.
Ever. We saw literal have that issue.
But you can trust that I'm goingto do what you want me to
because I care more than you. I care more than you know to
care because I don't want to hear that I'm a fucking idiot.

(41:48):
And like, we in the past have sent engines to machine shops
that have been doing this for 20years and had to take the
engines apart, you know, in early time and that we have
machine shop with machinists we trust.
And I look over everything. Dude, you, you got to talk to my
techs and stuff like stick my hands and fingers and

(42:08):
everything. Like I walk through the machine
shop and I'm like just doing weird stuff.
And like, you know, we'll, we'llget someone who's like, oh, I
had this engine built somewhere else and I'll leave in the
machine shop and something went wrong, whatever or something
wasn't right or they're scared or something.
Their buddy had their engine blow up.
So they don't want it to blow upbefore I'll stick my hand in
there and feel, you know, sand in the valve cover or you know

(42:31):
what I mean? Like it's just little shit like
that that like you can't pin on them, but you know what's but
you also if you live in some little like bullshit town, you
can't get anywhere else and it kills the vibe, it kills the
build culture. You get burned once good.
Someone who earned and spent 3040506070 eighty 150 grand on a

(42:54):
car and they get burned once, they might never build a car
again. Yeah, they'll completely opt
out. I've seen people, I've seen it
happen. Yeah.
I'm going to go buy a Porsche, you know, we'll buy a turbo
portion. Just call it a day.
Just call it a day, get a warranty, but I don't know we
it's not that like nothing and everything is profitable.
I think having a specialty is super important and like if the

(43:19):
only piece of advice I'd give anyone that I that I would be a
Dick about enforcing is like if you go to a shop and they will
build anything that you want to give them 99% of the time you're
getting. Fucked.
You know what I mean? I would agree.
I I I've seen it, I mean Ryan literal, for example, along the

(43:41):
lines of Arby's. I know nothing of him.
I've, I heard one time he's likethe spokesperson for Arby's and
that's kind of an. OSD sure within he's the only
one that runs an RV platform or only one that has in a while so
and he's stuck with it now we're.
And already he doesn't give it avery good name.
And yeah, but he one whole year he was blowing engine round

(44:03):
after round at the round. Turns out next year you realize
it was a machine shop the whole time.
No shit. So they were just completely
bullshit in the machine. There's obviously three parts
every build, right? There's the person who put it
together, the machine shop and the tuner.
If it breaks, I like to know it's me, right?

(44:27):
Like, I don't don't know. It's us.
I don't want our car going to a different tuner and the tuner
going on your machine shop fucked it.
Like if it breaks here, it was me.
Yeah, it was us. It was no one else.
And then I can go give them a new one without a question in my
mind. Give them a new one, give them a

(44:47):
new engine, give them whatever because that was us.
Just settles everything. Having able yeah, settles
everything. There's a couple things that can
happen that aren't us, but it's like very, very, very rare.
If everything's firing, it's us.And I'm confident in giving you,
I can't say this word out loud. My attorneys won't like it.

(45:08):
A warranty, A guarantee. Well, there's a lot of overhead
that's happening here. So like from like from my, what
I'm trying to understand I guessis given that you have so much
overhead, how are you able to make enough by doing all that?
Like do you can you only take onhigh ticket bills and stuff or

(45:29):
like. No, like to be fair, I make more
profit. Expensive off.
Bro ticket bills. Really.
Absolutely, if you give me a timing belt job to do, I'm
taking 1500 bucks from you. Just like for like.
Like an RV, if you have your skyline, you're like, I need a
time belt, water pump, tensioners, blah blah blah.
I'm getting 1500. Let's just say I'm just making a
number. Getting $1500 from you in a day,

(45:50):
four hours. I'm not going to do it flash.
I'm not going to or hourly rate this.
You're paying 1500 bucks. It sucks.
It's a lot of work. It's going to cost you $15 in
labor. If I could do timing belts every
single day with two techs this place would make, they could
probably each do 1 1/2 to 2 a day.

(46:11):
They would make each $3000 a day.
That's $6000 a day. Make 30 grand a week.
If I build your car crazy, I'm making 30 grand over six months
and I'm not making 30 grand. I'm take I'm taking 30 grand of
above what my cost is, but I can't account for the lights on
and the fucking guy in the bathroom.

(46:34):
I can't account for all that like to the T it's nearly
impossible because there's so many variables.
Make way more money if I do the bullshit way more.
That's crazy. What's think about, I mean like
how many fucking mom and pop mechanic shops you see where the
guy drives a fucking nice car? The owner, you know, he's got a
bunch of like low paid dudes in there and he's driving something
nice. He's there half the day.

(46:55):
It's because they're just turning shit over.
McDonald's makes more in a day than your five star restaurant
because of the numbers. You know how much they can do,
so I like. It's not there though.
They do two time belts today. No, fucking no, it's not.
It's not realistic. Yeah, that's only the machine
shop now that isn't localized. You couldn't be in California.

(47:15):
Say, can I can I have an engine?And we're about to get an engine
Dino and we'll be able to like give them almost a tune with
their engine because we'll have an engine Dino that we can
TuneIn house and say give us your hall tech or whatever, tune
it and ship them their engine tune.
We'll fucking put it in your car, plug your ECU in our locked

(47:35):
ECU. Reason we lock it is not to
protect our tune, it's to protect your guarantee if that's
unlocked. I know somebody else stuck their
fucking hands in there, but it'dbe.
It's going to be so cool when weget to the point where it's like
you can have your shopping Cali of save the money and shipping.
I probably make more money building an engine and shipping
it than I do fucking slaving over your car and finding every

(47:57):
bolt and doing all that shit. Taking up a lift.
Sell you an engine, sell you a tune.
Yeah, taking up a lift and we'lljust service local people or
people who want that level of build.
But we'll be able to send an engine to Nick Collier in
California. He can be thrown in the car,
plug our ECU in and let it out the door he makes.
Something like that cost. I don't know.

(48:19):
If someone wanted to just get a basic, you know. 25 Four. 100
horsepower rebuild. I don't know, foreign horsepower
costs 4 horsepower. I don't like 2 sixes.
Like I don't I stroke every engine.
It's it's actually cheaper. It's a weird way to say it.
It's not cheaper. It's more cost effective to
stroke an engine than it is to like build this 26, you know,

(48:41):
OK, like 4 horsepower. I don't even like building 4
horsepower cars because it's notreally a build.
You're over building and then you're just turning it down.
Kind of 5 horsepower cars, 28 itcost you.
I don't know, let's just make ita 25 to 35 grand, send you an
engine, have your shop put it in.
Like if if someone sent us an engine and we'd have to paint

(49:04):
the Bay, we don't do anything. You just wanted us to swap it.
They do in three days. Engine out, engine in, plug in
the ECU and drive out. We do it 3.
Let's say Ford Adam's dad's car.We got his car in our shop
Thursday at like 4:00 PM. Barely touched it on that
Thursday, worked on it all Friday.
Two guys Saturday at 3:00, Adam and I were driving the Mountain

(49:27):
Rd. You know, like.
That's incredibly fast it. Takes a lot of planning.
You have to know what the fuck you're doing, you know?
I couldn't do that with an RB and a 350Z ever in a million
years you know? But unless I did 2 and then it'd
be come pretty easy. Second one, yeah.
Obviously, but in that like I would love to do that and not

(49:49):
have to paint bays in order to do that and then when the people
want it, because right now I don't offer that.
I won't do it. I'll I'll have to paint your
Bay. I have to put the zinc plots and
I have to powder coat. I have to replace shit like I
have to because I don't want youto be like, oh, I got an engine
swapped on the Tommy's and the fucking Brent brake bastard
cylinder went. It's like, what the fuck?
I didn't do anything with that, but like that's annoying for

(50:11):
you. You put the bad taste in your
mouth and you know you're. Just trying to create that
standard. Trying to create a standard and
I'm trying to give you a reliable product.
A lot of people now because of the price of Skylines in their
brain, they think they're going to a dealership and buying a
brand new car. I don't know how to else to word
that, but that's what they think.
And realistically you're buying a piece of shit 30 year old car

(50:32):
and it lasted this long, but nowit's time to redo it all so it
lasts that long again, you know?But these people, you spent
$200,000 on an R34 and it's like.
Oops, sorry. You put you spent 200,000 on R34
and you're expecting that thing to last.
It's no more reliable than an S chassis with, you know, that's
settled, or a Honda Civic or a fucking whatever 350Z you buy

(50:56):
off marketplace, you know? How this place has to have a lot
of money wrapped up in GT Rs? What do you mean?
So like customer cars? How many of those are actually
the shops or yours specific? Right now we have like 6
skylines that are like 7 skyline.
I mean 7 skylines that are the shops or mine.

(51:17):
Yeah any. We've had 42 skylines in the
parking lot before that weren't ours.
That's insane. Yeah.
OK, so. It took us two years to get
through them. Yeah.
You know, but that was my bad. That was me starting a shop, not
really knowing and being like a little concerned because we had

(51:38):
a lot of overhead like you said,and it was like, oh, you want
your car belt cool. Oh, you do cool.
And it let's say it hurt me or my reputation because things
took longer than they were supposed to and things take
longer than they're supposed to 50% of the time.
Very rarely do you get like this, like Breeze, but we're
getting it fine-tuned and it, ifyou throw a wrench in the works
like I want this instead of whatyou do at this point now I'm

(51:59):
like, no, I'm not going to do that because that's going to
cost me 10 hours or it's going to cost me this or it's going to
hurt my timeline 36710 months from now.
You know, So if you're cool withlike the packages we offer, then
I can guarantee from today forward I'm not going to have a

(52:19):
car more than 90 days. That's cool.
Yeah. So I how often are you having to
like, push people away then? I mean, I push people away once
a week, probably, really probably or just no offense to
anyone, don't respond. I hate saying that out loud as a
business person, but like it's, there's so much that if I read

(52:42):
your first line and you're like crazy and it'll be crazy, like
insane, just like says some wildshit.
I I bought a skyline and it camewith no motor.
It fucking see ya, you know whatI mean?
Like there's some some things you could say that I'm like, not
for us. You don't want to pay what
that's going to cost like not for us.
And like it's everyone thinks it's like a luxury to be able to

(53:04):
do that, but it's honestly, it'sa safety, it's a protection
measure, measure, you know, because I'm protecting you and
me, there's no chance I'm going to make you happy.
There's no fucking chance I'll do that.
I'll, I'll sometimes I'll offer to buy you this shit and be
like, I'll just buy that from you.
That's going to suck. I'll buy that from you because
I'll part it out or I'll finish it or I'll swap some shit

(53:25):
around, whatever. But yeah, I don't want bullshit.
I want to build clean cars wherepeople appreciate our style or
like logic or, or just how we doit.
Yeah, that's how what I want to build.
So then what are the packages? Because you mentioned that are
there set packages? Yeah, pretty much.
So you could you every car is getting a 28I can explain why

(53:46):
it's a sales pitch, but it's really a real sales pitch.
I can't guarantee any of your work if you keep your original
engine. And if you do all this and you
keep that original 26 that's 30 years old that like I can't tear
open and measure bearings. Like by the time you're like
making sure that engines good, you might as well just fucking
rebuilt it, you know, So everyone gets a 28 now from that

(54:08):
point. And that may change in the
future, but I don't really see abenefit to me to get putting 2
sixes in cars. We're building street cars.
Let's just do a 28. You don't even like touch I
guess. 20 fives and stuff. Oh I love 20 fives.
I'll fuck with 25. I'm just talking about GTRS
right now. So 28 is the bottom you're going
to 28 and then from there you get to choose pretty much 3

(54:31):
turbo options. You can do a single GT34R, which
is an HDS kit that like we put in Adam's R32 it's his favorite
car. Like we get to say you you
respect Adam altiest whom right is builds.
That is my. Favorite car of his?
That's a bolt on car. People try to give me shit
because we do bolt ONS. Oh they're a bolt on shop?

(54:51):
Who the fuck wants one off intercooler piping and this and
that? Like I'd rather find you some
weird like, you know, re/max shit from 1995 then build you a
custom intercooler pipe kit thatthere's so many intercooler pipe
kits on there you'd be stupid todo your own.
Now if you're a fabricator and you want to fuck around like

(55:12):
hey, do you, but like you're going to a shop and like hey
guys, I really want this and canyou maybe custom intercooler
piping? They're just like sucker, you
know, cuz that's stupid. That's fucking stupid.
It's not serviceable, it's not repeatable.
You need that one guy who knows how to do it and what he did to
fix it. If something happens and
everyone says what's going to happen to an inner core pipe.
The other day I had one blow offand I ran it over.

(55:34):
I went in the parts room, took one out-of-the-box, I put it
back in. It was crushed flat.
They're cast, it happens. You're making 300 horsepower and
it pops off because that's what things do sometimes and be
fucking running over like that. Got you guys be like here, are
you free tomorrow and your fabricators, you go, I'm booked
for six months and now your car's down for your season.
Your life sucks. My shit's all repeatable,

(55:57):
replaceable, fairly easy. You know, OK, SO28 bottom, you
can upgrade little components. I want this oil pump or that oil
pump, whatever, whatever. But like 283 turbo options,
which is I like the Nismo R threes which come in the CRS
R323334 that Nismo does kind of like the Z tune.

(56:18):
I like 25 thirties, which are HKS or I like the single GT34R.
OK, so if you want a single, you're going GT34R.
That's we put in Adam's car. If you want twins, we're going
25 thirties 99% of the time that's we put Alex Bowman's car.
We've done like 10/15/20 5:30 cars.
They make about 6:40 to 680 wheel.

(56:40):
The single car makes like 640 to660.
It's a much smaller range with the single.
And then you can do a different engine package with that 28.
And then we can open up like a little bit bigger turbo or do a
little bit bigger hot side or whatever.
But like those are that's prettymuch the packages.
That's all you're getting, so. That's that's pretty
straightforward. R3 turbos are great for pump

(57:01):
gas. 25 thirties are ethanol. GT34R is good on pump or
ethanol. So if you're like I'm only doing
pump, I'll do R threes because they're a little smaller, a
little smaller hot side, the spool a little better.
You'll make 550. You know on on pump you'll make
less than that. But I mean on ethanol with those
turbos, you make 550, you make like 450 on pump on 25 thirties

(57:24):
you'll make 650GD34R, you make 650.
And we have done GTR s s, which are 25 forties technically and
those do, we just did 755 on. But the engine needs to be like
fine-tuned. We won't just throw that in the
run-of-the-mill 28. We got to do some stuff to spool
those and make them drivable. But those are the packages

(57:46):
outside of that. I hate you.
You. Know so you're not taking my
car. I get it.
We'd love to, like we'd always love to build an engine.
You know, you want to build an RB, I'll build you an RB.
That'll take the abuse. We built Sean Booth's car, 28 in
a Neo. The thing is, no one knows this.
The thing is like 11 to 211.2 toone compression.
That car cannot go on pump gas because the Chamber of the Neo

(58:09):
is so much smaller and the 26 Pistons are so much bigger that
that thing's fucking spicy. That car, it's two years old.
Booth isn't easy on anything, and he's got a little bit of a a
touch where if it's overheating mid run, he might not lift.
You know, he overheated so bad that you couldn't see space in

(58:30):
between the fins of the radiator.
They just all just it blew up like a balloon.
It's still going. Sumner 6 isn't the happiest from
what I hear, but like, still going.
Yeah. And that's a basic bitch 28 and
a Neo. Like that's like no rods, crank,
Pistons, some machine work. Simple as it gets.
I think we have stock cams so. How much does like if someone

(58:51):
wanted to get that exact engine package?
Well, let's like not talk about any parts because they're always
changing. Our labor is roughly like engine
head, like like complete long block.
Our labor is about 4800 bucks. It's like 1800 for the head,
3000 for the bottom end. That's line own, you know, bore,
skim, do all that stuff. And then the head guides, valve

(59:12):
job. Always do guides, always do
valve job minimum. That's minimum.
If you want to do like clearancing for different base
circle, like shit goes up obviously, but it's roughly 4800
bucks. Like if you said build my 25,
here's a ball the parts and you will parts that we like it cost
you 4800 bucks on top to get done.
You get a long block back like you'd get you'd be able to get

(59:34):
it and like you wouldn't have toput the head on.
If you want us to time it and stuff like that, we could do all
that. What if I said just what you
what you think should be on the engine?
You go ahead and put your opinion in it.
Just do it how you want. It like if you dropped your 25,
I would do 2-8 with no rods. I'd use 26 rods.

(59:54):
We have a ton of them. They're Fords are stronger.
So probably cost you 10 to well,actually, I know what are two
eights cost the 28 package through our shop.
So sketch because it's differentoptions, but like 26, let's say
you come to me with a 26. Can you like make this A28 with
a step 2V Cam like what I would put in a car?

(01:00:17):
Oh. Damn it, what is going on here?
Like what I would put in a car. It's about 16,000 all in.
Cool. You come to me with a block in
it. Yeah, 16,000.
That's like parts, labor bearings, you know, that's.
Like ready to drop in? Pretty much you have to bolt
everything to it, but yeah. Which I mean if you're.
It's a lot of fucking money it. Is but if when you justify the

(01:00:40):
fact of how much an RB costs in itself.
Like if I was so how much would that jump up if I didn't have an
engine at all and had you had tosource it for?
25. Sure. 25 neo jump what what that
costs unless you unless I sourcelike a block call it 35 to 4500
bucks X-ray and I would do it toa neo like if you if you wanted

(01:01:01):
my advice to 350Z get yourself aneo try to find a head in the
block bring me your head and block.
Also in case there's some parts or some weird shit I can use put
a 28IN it do the head work get some tome cams 260 cams for fuck
with the yen right now. I think they're like 400 bucks
for both cams. I guarantee you that thing will
make 600 horsepower forever like4 ever right, turbo G3770 good

(01:01:26):
manifold. You make 600 horsepower forever
if you're not like Booth and youget a good tune, you know?
I'm not the nicest. As a streetcar that will last
forever, as a drift car, it'll last.
Watch Booth and then like doubleit if you don't drive like him
or follow it if you drive like him.

(01:01:49):
We'll see when it let's go. Well, he's our testimony.
People think we did that for him.
We sponsored him. I like Booth.
He deserves it. He's a gangster.
He's a fun driver to watch. But now you know which data we
have from like and like. I don't know if his tune is
great, you know, like, I don't know all that stuff.
It's got to be decent. But like, you know, much data we

(01:02:10):
have from that. Because none of these GTRS are
doing what Booth's doing, so Booth can do that.
Fuck dude, most of these GTR guys barely get into boost.
That car will last forever. What it like as far as data
though? What is?
What all is he providing? Nothing, just time.
I just see how long it's working.
Oh, so you're just visibly watching?
Just watching. I don't even look at as long as
I can't do that. It's tuned by somebody else.
It's not. It's not accurate to anything.

(01:02:33):
Yeah, but it's lasted, and that's all I care about.
If that dude can drive like that, it all.
He drives a lot. Adam fucking brings him around
like he can drive like that for as long as he does.
You are blowing up a fucking GTR.
No shot on the street. No fucking way.
No way. That's crazy.

(01:02:55):
Yeah. That is a good car though, just
from. We painted it and like, did all
that. It's a gangster car boots.
A gangster I hate. I hated Booth when I met him.
You see, I look at the camera when I say funny stuff.
He is a fucking prick. Yeah, he's a prick, but I love
Booth. He's a homie.
He's a homie. Lee's cool.
He seems like a lot when you first meet him, yeah.

(01:03:17):
He well, he's like me. Maybe that's why I hated him.
Yeah. Don't feel dirt.
Yeah, just. Do you feel that's like, does
that hurt people in a way, especially on the Internet?
Hurt their feelings or hurt my reputation.
Not, oh, I guess reputation or what?
So what it does, I'll just explain it real easy.

(01:03:37):
If you're doing something I don't like, I've got to take the
long way to be nice to tell you that.
If I just tell you the dickhead way, you know, way quicker, you
know, to a different degree. Oh my God, that's interesting.
You know, it's like different than fuck that hat, right?
That's interesting. You go home and go.
What did he mean by that? And just the hats a bad example,

(01:04:00):
but take that into considerationwith anything.
Yeah. I don't want you to leave me and
go. What did he mean by that?
You know what the fuck I mean? You know, I'm like, I don't want
to offend you. I don't want to.
That's not the goal. But don't ask me a question that
you might get offended by the answer.
I think to the right people though, it's almost refreshing

(01:04:21):
in a sense, especially out of your comments section.
Dude people are like like the the podcast you just did with
what are the right hand drive guys?
So I stopped reading comments onthat dude.
Well, but they were from. My perspective, I read through
almost every single comment on that podcast and majority of
them are good comments for the most part and they fucking
appreciative how you know directand blunt you are about certain

(01:04:45):
things. And this podcast will be half
the time you do this podcast with Nate Hamilton, who's the
nicest guy in the world offense.Nate, like he's twice as long
Sugarcoat because he's not not that he's not direct.
No offense. Nate like he's going to
sugarcoat. He's going to be nice because
that's how he is. He's nice.
Nate's an amazing. Dude, Nate's the best dude.
He was here this morning. I saw him all sick.
Yeah, and that's why I thought of him.

(01:05:07):
He's the nicest human in the world, you know?
But like, the podcast is going to be longer.
You may at the end not have quite a vibe of his opinions or
his style or whatever. That's OK.
I just want to get as much information to you as possible.
As quickly as me and Adam talking shit goes like that, you
know, shit happened so fucking fast.

(01:05:27):
Me and Adam talked because he doesn't he doesn't sure coat he
he's better at than me, but just.
I think he's more just better atnot speaking at at certain
points you. Better get shutting the fuck up
you. You will just say it, I'll just
the filter completely isn't there.
I would say and but like people like Adam appreciate it because

(01:05:47):
he he's a deep thinker, you know, and like, he's the guy who
will be like, what did they meanby that?
Or take it wrong or whatever. Where I don't care enough to be
like, what did you mean by that?Or I'll ask you, what is that
supposed to mean? You know what I mean?
Like you say something that I find mildly offensive.
What's that supposed to mean? And then if you're like, well,
no, no, no, I'm like, no, reallylike I want to know.

(01:06:09):
But I'd love for you to like review one of my cars.
I'd love for you to like, find something you don't like.
I'd love that because I get to either have a discussion
argument or I get to go, that dude doesn't know what the fuck
he's talking about. Or maybe you're going to go,
you're going to open my eyes or something, which is the most
valuable thing ever, you know, in my opinion.

(01:06:30):
Yeah, because you mentioned, I don't, I don't remember the
exact wording of it, but you mentioned it on that podcast
like when as soon as you are immune to like learning you as
soon. As you're shut off the learning.
You're useless. Like that you're a useless
person if you're not being not teachable or refusing to be

(01:06:51):
teachable or being so rigid yourgrowth stops immediately.
And that's how that's my persona, I guess, or my
reputation is that I'm rigid with my opinions.
But like the things we're talking about, I've thought
about for the last 20 years in, in, in its entirety.
You will never change my mind, right?

(01:07:12):
So I'm rigid because I've explored as much as I'm
interested in exploring to the point engine swaps.
You're not going to change my fucking mind.
It's not going to happen. And like I said, and just swaps
loose because a 20 and a 25 and a 26 are all like the same
architecture. But like you're not really going
to change my mind is is there a chance I'm going to get a car

(01:07:33):
this minute? Just swap and it's good, chef.
Sure. It's one in a fucking million,
you know, it's one in a million and I'm down to feel that and
maybe I'd buy that call whatever.
Like my Sr. Altezza.
Yeah, I'm stupid enough to know I hate swaps and still want to
do that, you know, and then learn it's either good or not.
Yeah, and that information is sovaluable too.

(01:07:54):
I would agree. I mean it's because I I even
tell people all the time give meyour criticism.
I'm I'm more than happy to hear it and make the changes that are
necessary. And but like from your angle,
especially on the Internet too. Like you almost made a YouTube
career off of being blunt and talking shit about other

(01:08:16):
people's. Cards.
The problem is like, I talk shitabout things that are unsafe,
stupid, whatever. I don't.
I don't. Want to seen it as you talk
about the stuff that the people who are majority of time just
scared to talk about. Sure.
Or like open setting. If I look at a car and it's like
a color I don't like, I'm not going to fucking talk shit about

(01:08:36):
that. Like oh, you painted your car
pink? Like OK, whatever.
I'm going to talk shit about using like a Mishimoto radiator,
a chase based power steering reservoir, like garbage.
I'm going to talk shit about that.
That's where I get a target on my back.
You know? It's like people like that shit.
I use chase base stuff. That's the worst stuff in the
world. I've never had an issue.

(01:08:57):
Never had a leak. I've never had an issue out of
my Chase base stuff. I I I'm not joking.
Yeah, no, I mean, sure. I have heard of people that
have, but I sure most of the time I I feel like most of the
time when people have issues outof their parts, it's bad
installation. That's my perspective on it.
It's like what? I found is like things with

(01:09:17):
chase bases like the powder coator the paint or whatever made a
surface not flat and the crush washer didn't work and like
that's quality control garbage. You know, fluid management's
pretty important and just skip the bullshit.
Just skip it. I don't need to take chase bases

(01:09:37):
junk again. I've said it 200 times on the
Internet and dude, I had Mishimoto reach out to me one
time. I was like, we want you to come
to our factory in Delaware or whatever, and I'm.
Like Mishimoto I. Just responded L0L 0L0 Li
literally just emailed back lol.It's fucking chunk.
I'm not interested in learning. We put a mishimoto on a car, put
it on the Dino for the fuck of it and it chilled like 11°

(01:10:00):
warmer than the coil just chilled there.
It's garbage and your gauge is mine.
Showed up with all the fans fucked up and like dude, yeah
it's bad. One of my buddies one time got
one in the mail and it was like banana like you know at the
time. Filler cap isn't even welded
directly over the hole. I had to modify my funnel
fitting just to make it junk. Yeah, coil step above ARC Nismo

(01:10:25):
better PWRCSF they're they're better.
Things are better. I don't know about CSFI guess
I've had an issue with that. But like there's better out
there. Just fucking spend the money or
don't do it. Your stock rate is probably
better than a Machi just doesn'tlook after market you know?
Trash. All trash covered up anyways.
I talk shit mostly. Where I started was not to talk

(01:10:48):
shit or be controversial or ragebait.
Once again I call it. It's called YouTube right?
So if I have a YouTube channel, that's about me.
Pretty narcissistic obviously. Why are you watching it?
Don't know, but I hope it's because you agree with me and
your opinions aligned with mine so I want to give you all of

(01:11:11):
them because I feel like I'm in an accelerated position.
You haven't built 50 skylines. Your opinion on skylines or the
parts is less valuable than mine.
So if I don't critique things, Icould get you up to speed with
me if you just watch my YouTube channel and get you 50 skyline
builds under your belt if you just watch my YouTube channel,

(01:11:33):
right? So I think that's valuable for
me. And people see it as like a
target or whatever, and it's targeted me before, as you know,
but like, I'm just doing it for the people who aligned with me,
not doing it to change anyone's mind.
I don't give a fuck. If you like Mishimoto, you're
wrong. See ya.
That's cool. Go watch.
Go deal with the problems. Go deal with.

(01:11:54):
The problems? Go watch those channels.
But like, it's my tube, you know?
So if you like this shit and youlike the cars, maybe my
personality don't love, but you appreciate the builds.
Like cool, I don't want to scareanyone away with my personality.
And a lot of people meet me like, wow, you're way different
than on YouTube. And it's like I am and I'm not.
I will still talk shit and I'll still do that.
But like, you're only getting the like condensed version of my

(01:12:18):
prickness in those like little single line.
Fuck Mishimoto, you know, or fuck this or fuck that.
Like if you take that to heart, like you're not going to last
there anyway, you know? So I don't know.
I think I just want to cut the bullshit in cars.
I also grew up skateboarding andskateboarding as a standard.

(01:12:39):
It's very critical. If it doesn't look good, don't
fucking do it. I don't want to watch it.
Style is everything, performances every, you know,
like those things so you know it.
Did you ever skate? I I was bad at skating, I was
better at being mixed. OK, Do you know about mall
grabbing? Yeah.
How insane is it that that gets made fun of?

(01:13:00):
But it's so sick that that's a standard.
You can't hold your skateboard by the trucks.
That is sick. That is fucking standards that
like the whole community can spot an asshole from a mile
away. That's me with Mission Moto.
I can spot the asshole from a mile away.
The dumbass, I can spot them from a mile away.
And if you have Mission Moto, I hope I'm offending you.
And I hope you're taking it to heart.
And you go out and get a coil oryou go out and get a better

(01:13:21):
radiator or whatever the fuck. Like that's the, that's what
it's bullying. To be fair, that's what it is in
skateboarding. If you push Mongo, you know, you
know what pushing Mongo is? Yeah, you push Mongo.
Just say again. You push mongo so.
You I. Don't.
OK, OK, that's, but it's funny to make fun of people that do.

(01:13:41):
It's skateboarding. You can't push Mongo.
It doesn't look good. You look out of control when
you're pushing Mongo, right? I love this.
You're going to get a lot of clips, you know, from this, but
like, that's where my standards come from.
I want everyone to have those standards.
Like this is the skate community, it's the car
community. Have the standards.
Trash brands will disappear. What's ruling right now is

(01:14:03):
Chinese eBay shit because peopleare going OK.
It's fucking not. It's chunk.
You are taking money from brandsthat put R&D, do the work, push
the limits, get the machines to make better stuff.
And Mishimoto. I got to stop saying Mishimoto.
These people are copying it or putting their head in that, you
know, doing good marketing, selling it $10 cheaper.

(01:14:25):
It's trash. You know it's all trash.
How do you spot a company when that stuff happens, like when it
when a new company comes around and because like obviously the
industry is growing so more companies are coming I'm.
Truly uninterested in new companies.
Really. Well, I guess, yeah, you follow
the obviously the OEM stuff well.
Like it's not even OEM, I mean 922 hours, but there's nothing
OEM about my car. But it is period correct?

(01:14:47):
I'm period correct. People confuse OEM, so I'll tell
you what OEM plus is. OEM plus is within the original
manufacturer. This is my opinion.
I think I define OEM plus prettywell if the original OEM is
original equipment manufacturer.So if you have an OEM plus car,
what does that mean? It's made by the original

(01:15:09):
manufacturer. It's all Nissan inclusive to
some deal that would happen. Sure, like Altia or Nismo or
whatever, it's all Nissan. It's all Toyota or Honda.
You can't say. Well, Olins are OEM plus that's
not only in plus because they'regood.
I hear that all the time about Owens specifically.
Owens suspension is the best. It's aftermarket.

(01:15:30):
They do do OEM stuff for like Ducatis and stuff like that, but
it's aftermarket. OEM is Nismo and Nissan and
Altia and all tech. Those are OEM plus.
They came on cars that you buy at the dealership, right?
That's the definition. So if you have a 328 BMW and you

(01:15:51):
put them three shit on there, not just the badge, that's OEM
plus. That's it.
Nothing else. Nothing.
Aftermarket is OEM plus. OEM plus is up.
Not a badging, it's up trim leveling in my opinion.
So your 350 ZVR 38 OEM plus VR30OEM plus OK RB25 OEM minus no

(01:16:15):
just kidding, RB25 it's OEM. It's your decision if that's OEM
plus, but that's OEM. You're not playing at one, Ji.
Probably wouldn't categorize that as OEM plus.
Yeah, and me neither. It's a swap.
It's weird. It's like a weird because it's
negative because of the technology.
Different generations. All of it and I wouldn't either,
but per my definition, I guess it's it's OEM, it's original

(01:16:37):
Nissan engine. You know, if you get this fit
with stock mounts and shit by taking them from a fucking Q50
and a trans mount from a frontier like that's OEM plus as
fuck. I'm in I'm with it.
If you RB25 swap that without buying an aftermarket part like
I'm intrigued you know? OK.
So on the lines of the OEM plus then you mentioned like E30

(01:16:59):
sixes and stuff like that. So if you just bought a base
model E36, put every little detail that makes it an M3 on
the car. Is it now an M3?
No, it's an OEM plus 318 TI or 318 IS or whatever.
But we have a GTT outside. It's Altia car, it's yellow EV1.
It has R34 GTR front and rear seats, R34 GTR steering wheel,

(01:17:22):
Nismo cluster in triple meters, You know the three gauges, you
know 350Z guy. Hey, come here, come here.
You're good. Come here.
Hey, we're talking about you. Oh, yeah.
And we're talking about money. Now that he's coming over here,
you guys have to badge of the shit out of him.
I've been trying to work with you for years on getting an

(01:17:43):
episode. So like that Altia, that car as
GTRC, GTR steering wheel, Nismo LMGT fours, it's got R35 brakes,
it's got RB26, it's got R3 turbos, it's got Nismo carbon
air box, carbon piping, Nismo intercooler, it's got stock R34

(01:18:03):
intercooler, Nismo radiator, Everything on the car except the
coil overs, the fuel pump and the injectors you could buy from
Nissan at some point. That car makes 540 horsepowers.
Fucking gangsters. OEM plus OEM plus.
What's your definition of OEM Plus?
Slammed on BSK FS. See.
See. Damn it, BSKFSOEM.

(01:18:26):
Plus it's very simple concept, Idon't know why.
If you say so. I don't know.
Simple. Concept.
You know, I've seen this duty pizza from California.
I can't take his opinion on anything seriously.
I bet it had pineapple on it too.
Say about Connecticut pizza. What do they say it's?
Like Chuck E Cheese. That shit fire.

(01:18:46):
Chuck E Cheese pizzas fire. Hey.
What's that tire shop? It's called Tractor Supply.
Tractor Supply. They're going to.
They're going to. You'll like it there.
You never. Heard a Tractor Supply What?
It's a Tractor Supply store. It's like a mini Home Depot.
Yeah, just see if they got it. It's right down the road.

(01:19:07):
No, there'll be a tire on a wheel.
You'll be able to just throw it in your trailer.
Buy the whole thing. It's like 170 bucks.
I'll be out in a minute. Yeah.
So right now you came at the best time.
Like TJ and Nate were here, Grant was here, Hertz here,
Trevor from Ocean Auto's here. Like everyone kind of converges
here at the shop. Yeah, we fuck around.
Like tonight we're going to dinner.

(01:19:28):
Like it's just a good time. We'll see.
I don't know if they made a reservation, so I hate to say
that to you and not invite you, but I'll see if they if we just
have a room or what's going on. I'll invite you.
No, it's it's fun. It's a good time.
Yeah. Well.
Enjoying the time. I like to pull people into the
world that we do because I thinka lot gets like missed, you
know, on YouTube a lot. You don't get to see what's your

(01:19:49):
opinion on that thing because like, I know I don't.
Care fuck everyone like they don't need to see us going to
dinner, but I think it would be pretty interesting for somebody
who watches everyone to come to dinner with us.
You know what I mean? Like, I'd love to just like pick
a random viewer and be like, jump in, you know, and do 140
miles an hour down the highway with everyone inches from each

(01:20:11):
other and. Why aren't you done that?
Well, 'cause everyone's weird onthe Internet, you know 90% of
the people are weird. I guess you are.
Yeah. You know, like, you know, when
Adam comes into town and everyone's in town, we just, we
just fuck around like homies that have cool shit, you know,
and I think that's like, it's a vibe that's like my favorite
thing. That's my favorite thing about
YouTube is like my YouTube friends that like, you know, we

(01:20:35):
could talk shit about each other, whatever.
And everyone's just understands,you know, 'cause and mother
fuckers have to have thick skin.It's crazy.
It's crazy. While the people on the Internet
are like. Especially doing this, yeah.
I don't care about like bullying, but it's crazy what
they're willing to like, say or do or whatever.
And most of them are pussies. You know, people talking shit.

(01:20:57):
Just trolls. I mean, I, I'm in favour of
bullying to an extent, Yeah. It's.
Well, that's a very skateboarding society, I told
the guys. My techs like, hey, people I
hire like this place run like a skate park, whatever that means
to you. That's what's run like.
So if I see you doing some dumb shit, it's like we're going to

(01:21:18):
be like, oh, look at that idiot doing that dumb shit.
You know, it's like, and you'll be like, fuck, that sucked when
everyone you know, there's things that someone did so small
six months ago. That's like their name right
now, you know, in the shop, because it's like you did so
stupid. People talk shit about me too in
the shop. They make fun of me in the shop,
you know, like they say some pretty crazy shit sometimes, you

(01:21:38):
know? But yeah, it's a vibe, you know,
like we went to GTR festival andAdam, my favorite time we went
to Dallas. We ate at this really nice
restaurant. We had like 30 of us tomorrow,
son ate dinner with us. Like, you know, the Australians,
whoever, everyone was eating dinner with us and we left.
We had our GT Rs in downtown Dallas, which was a vibe
everyone hopping their GT Rs andlike Adams live streaming from

(01:22:01):
backseat, which I didn't know we're doing 100 and 3000 and 40
on the highway hurts right here.Flames coming out of his car.
Like it it looked like fucking need for speed and it was like,
you can't film that. Yeah, you could live stream it,
I guess, but you couldn't you can't film it and you can't.
And then you go, yeah, we were doing this and it just sounds
like a story, but like it's it'sit's YouTube I.

(01:22:21):
Guess not YouTube, but that's like behind the scenes.
YouTube. After dark or whatever.
Yeah, that's crazy 'cause like Imean, obviously we all I am that
person like that you mentioned you wish you could just take
someone to along that's just been watching.
I it's it's weird from my angle because I still don't it doesn't
feel like all this is kind of real.

(01:22:43):
So all of you guys that I've seen on YouTube non-stop for 10
plus years now or whatever. It's like I have so many
questions. So that's why this is valuable
to me. And I'm sure it.
Feels so. You know her.
Odd. Yeah.
No, I've, yeah. You've met him before?
I've literally been talking all the guys you mentioned I've all
talked to. Have you met him in person

(01:23:04):
before and stuff? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's that's cool for you. It's, you know, I think that's
cool. If you watched him, that's it's
very cool. I never watched.
Surreal because it's like you, you almost see you have this
image in your head for so long. It it all comes back to like
don't, don't meet your heroes, but you do.
You should. Sometimes.
Sometimes you're so. Yeah, I've met a couple that are

(01:23:26):
like. TJ Hunt fucking pussy yeah no, I
was getting TJ driving my 996 around today like I just threw
him the keys yesterday and. He's one of the ones that kind
of gave me a shot A. Little bit I gave him a ride in
the Colorado, blew the trans. So I blew the transmission in
the Colorado in this morning round two kick and on video
things all over. And this morning round two

(01:23:48):
happened and I've been beating the fuck out of thing for months
and like for some reason today TJ in the car third year left.
It was funny though. It's funny.
It's $250 transmission, it's whatever, but it was funny.
I I feel like I have that bad luck as well.
So something goes wrong when yougive me a ride along.
I'm sorry. Every time I get in someone's
car for a ride along something happens dude.

(01:24:09):
Whether they they wreck their shit trying to show out.
Or like I won't get in the car with anyone.
Weird breaks. There's very few people I'm
going to pass your sheet with. Really.
Yeah, dude. I mean, you got a camera,
there's a good chance you're going to die.
Someone's going to try to show off, you know, like Hertz not
going to try to show off for me.But some viewers like, you know,
you know, any times you take a ride in my car, I'll drive your

(01:24:30):
car maybe, but I'm not going fora ride with you because that's
when we die together. I can understand that.
I don't want to do that. I don't want to die with some
fucking idiot who can't drive their shit, you know?
If I ever do ride with someone, I'm usually not recording.
Yeah, you keep the camera I. Don't want to encourage it, I
guess I will. Ask this while you're talking.
Oh yeah, you're good. We obviously have like the

(01:24:53):
aftermath of everything that's happened.
How have you handled it from your side and been able to, I
guess move on from everything? And because I know you put a lot
of time into the business and it's it's kind of showing on
from a viewer perspective. Sorry, so say the last part

(01:25:15):
again because I heard it but I didn't understand how I moved on
from like drama. Yeah, so obviously.
I don't move on from drama. I don't move on from it.
Like I grew up at a different time than I would say the people
who I have drama with, people I have drama with, the person I'm
just going to say person that I have drama with.

(01:25:37):
People don't understand loyalty,right?
Like they don't understand loyalty.
I growing up, like I remember being like, yeah, I'm loyal to
my friends, right? Like if you get in a fight, even
if you're wrong, I'll get punched in the face for you.
If the cops roll up and and you're in, you know, or your
girlfriend calls me and says it was he with you?

(01:26:00):
You know, whatever. That's how I am.
He's younger people don't have they don't even have a fucking
spine to say the like, oh, loyalto themselves.
So I don't move on. And everyone likes to say the
like, oh, rent free thing, right?
Like right now we're talking about it.
Someone's going to say in the comments, blah blah blah.
Is living rent free? There's no, I've got tons of
space up in my brain. And if I if, if there's people

(01:26:23):
living rent free and I'm still able to function at the level I
am, what the fuck is your excuse?
Because I'm running a shop with people, building sick cars,
owning sick cars, maintaining relationships with people that
are actually homies, all while still hating your mother fucking
ass, you know? So I don't let go anything.
I'm a fucking petty, spiteful piece of shit.

(01:26:46):
If you cross me. It's not that I, oh, I don't
fuck with him. I, I really don't want you even
to live. Not that I don't want to kill
anyone. I just, I wouldn't give a fuck
if you weren't on this planet anymore.
Actually, that'd be the only time that you would probably
leave my brain is if you just didn't exist, you know?
So I don't move on from it. I just keep doing what the fuck

(01:27:10):
I'm doing, you know, and I thinkI'm doing it at a level that I'm
proud of, the level at which we're doing it.
We are doing it, you know, I, I like where we're at.
And I wouldn't change anything. I wouldn't change anything.
I don't give a fuck enough to change anything because what it
did is everything that happened brought me here and I'm cool

(01:27:33):
here. So if I will, I want to change
this. I think that's more rent free
than than hating somebody. I think rent free is being like,
I wish I didn't, you know, blah,blah, blah, like that's rent
free. I think what I'm at is just like
I saw your true colors. Fuck you.
I'm glad that happened because Iknow you're a piece shit and I

(01:27:53):
don't have any. I don't have to put any more
like actual effort. I I try to help everyone.
That's my thing. I try to help everyone.
Do I want to have an upside? Yeah.
I like symbiotic relationships, for sure.
That's what I like. I like to help you and you help
me, you know? And that doesn't mean I won't

(01:28:13):
help you unless you're helping me.
I just hope maybe it comes back one day.
But like, you know, praise the Mike.
You did it. You did a thing with him.
Like I didn't know him, I helpedhim built his car in my shop, we
machined it, we did everything helps.
He's a YouTube. I can't help everyone but in
that instance there was a littlebit of an upside.
I didn't get anything from prison.
Like you think I got a fucking build from him or or even I

(01:28:35):
didn't get anything. Couple more followers that are
on the fence about me and could turn into trolls in any given
minute or could be a die hard sure.
But like I want to help everyonebecause when I was an up and
coming YouTube, that shit goes far, you know?
I mean 5 grand off of some laboris a month's check and a month

(01:28:55):
check is really, you know, it's already spent by the time you
fucking get it. So see the value in that.
I see how it could help me. I see how I can help him.
I try not to take more than I give.
I hope they don't take more thanthey give.
And it's cool, you know, like Maddox is here building the
GTGTST. I'm trying to show him the way,

(01:29:15):
you know, I'm like, I don't needto do that.
I don't, you know, And he's a skateboarder though, so he.
Can get a soft spot for you, youknow.
Seriously, yeah, 'cause like those people give a fuck about
things. Skateboarders give a fuck about
stuff in my opinion, you know, like it's got to look good.
They, they work hard, they each,they eat shit, you know, they
like, do stuff. I the whole like skateboarding

(01:29:37):
thing is so telling of someone'scharacter.
I think BMX 2 not not just skateboarding BMX 2 good BMX.
If you just like had a BMX bike and rode around your town like
that's different than like I used to BMX.
You know what I mean? Like I.
Wasn't a hardcore. Being no, no, I'm not talking,
I'm just saying in general, likeyeah, anyone who's doing things
that they have to see it throughgetting their ass kicked,

(01:30:01):
nothing in in exchange. Like what does a skateboarder
get for kick flipping A5 set? You know, especially if it's not
filmed. You make it a woo Hoo.
Yeah, you get to be like, I did that.
You could tell if people could talk about it.
They're doing it for themselves,you know, and that's me with
cars. I'm doing it for me, and now I
get to do it for people who can't do what we do.
That's all it is. If, you know, it's this shit's

(01:30:24):
fun. My engine was out of my car
three times in the last seven days to make it on the dyno,
make 922 wheel at a low boost. You know, when I say low boost,
it's like 33 lbs of boost. It's not like crazy low, but
like, that's not fun. But the skateboarder and me had
to keep going. It's like throwing yourself

(01:30:45):
downstairs and eating shit. Like you want to land that
trick? I want to get my car on the dyno
before Freddie leaves. Do what we got to do.
So that's kind of what my perspective, not perspective,
but what what I wanted to get into.
Essentially it was because like,I don't, I don't feel it's my
place to pick a side or anythingon the drama that happened and
but. That's and plus.
This The story's already out. Your side's already.

(01:31:06):
Out The biggest thing I. Found valuable was like your
your mindset to continue on and although you don't post nearly
as much anymore we'll. Be back post.
And like it's 2-3 times a year, whatever it is, consistency.
It'll be back to like once a week, twice a week.
I'm just like trying to run the shop and like focus on that

(01:31:27):
filming and and to get the return of like even 10 trolls.
It's like, well, we can chill with that for a little bit.
You know what I mean? Like my viewers appreciate it
when I come back when I make a video usually gets pretty good
views, you know, and like stop for six months, come back.
My 34, I drove it on Fuji, like it got 75,000 views or whatever

(01:31:47):
and I'm happy with that with 283,000 Subs.
I'm happy with that, you know, but I did learn, like perception
is is pretty wild because we canboth experience the exact same
situation and you feel differently at the end of it
than me or experience a different situation even though

(01:32:09):
it was the same situation. You know what I mean?
Yeah, like. It plus, I mean the way you were
raised as a kid too, that all comes into play too.
The way you perceive things justnaturally.
Right. And yeah, yeah, shit you dealt
with. But I got, I also got to learn
like who the real homies were, right?
Because there's people who I don't talk to anymore after that

(01:32:30):
that I've heard are like, oh, I guess I reacted too soon.
And there's people who were like, you know, fuck all that
shit, you know, like Larry Chen,Larry Chen's a homie.
When that went down, he was honestly one of the first people
to call me, you know, And it waslike, that's cool, you know?
I mean, Adam talked still, you know, I talk through with it

(01:32:52):
with him. And what do you think?
Cuz you can't talk to like your girlfriend about it.
She doesn't fucking knows. You have a totally different
perspective on things. So you talk to somebody who
kindness had some controversy orwhatever.
You find out what your homies are and like I still have 90% of
the same friends. So something's there.
It was interesting to see cuz like especially going on to

(01:33:14):
other people's channels and stuff too.
And that's the only thing. That can get mentioned about it
too and like. That's the only thing I hated is
like me muddying up someone else's content, my drama
muddying up someone else's content.
But at the end of the day, in anLZ video with 3000 comments,
there's 100 bad ones. If they're about me, he probably
felt better than them being about him.

(01:33:35):
You know what I mean? Like if I took that, if I took
that spotlight off him, he was probably like, cool, Tommy got
all the hate. I didn't get any hate.
I'm chilling, you know, I'm like, that's and I signed up for
it. So I like he wouldn't want me to
experience that. But it didn't really negatively
affect. I didn't want it to negatively

(01:33:55):
affect anyone else. You know, Hoonigan came through
her fucking collab with some pretty fucking big Youtubers and
become friends with them. Not just like do a video or
whatever pizza mic. I talk to him once a week, you
know about cars or questions or want to do something.
Adam, I talk to almost daily. TJI talk to you weekly.

(01:34:16):
Her. I talk to you like I talk to all
these people all the time. That's awesome.
It's they're homies. I guess as far as all of that
goes, what is your planned for the the future?
I guess, I mean, obviously the business wasn't really affected
by the drama as much. Who knows if it was right?
You'll never know. Like I didn't give people that
called me and I'm like, hey, I was going to move my car to you,

(01:34:37):
but I didn't. You know what?
I mean, I don't get that like kind of directed your audience
to more who you want. Exactly right.
You have customers that are likeget their car and they're proud
of owning their car and their car is clean and you know, I
don't know, I I'll never know what it cost me.

(01:34:58):
And that's the problem with defamation.
And that's why defamation's no joke.
And defamation is saying things that aren't true about somebody
and presenting them as facts andhurting their money or the
reputation. I was defamed with enough
falsisms or, or lies that there's comments still today,

(01:35:19):
three years later. I don't care, but it's like who
is that affecting? Who is that influencing?
Like maybe your old partner heard some stuff and talk shit
about me on the Internet and nowhe's not here to hear that.
He's a fucking idiot. You know, very simple stuff that
like. By the way, I did apologize off

(01:35:43):
camera. I didn't even know, I'll be
honest with. You.
You're not the first person I'vedone that for, OK?
Yeah, no, I didn't know. You told me like, and I'm sure
that's like a a knee jerk reaction to be like, Hey, I'd
like to do something with you. But my old partner was a fuck
wit, you know? And like, if he's gone, I don't
fucking problem. You know, if he was here though,

(01:36:03):
I'd probably rather do a podcast, someone that didn't
like me so I could fucking make fun of him and talk.
It would be, it would be fuckinggreat.
If anyone has a podcast out there that doesn't like me, hit
me up. I would love to hear things that
you have to say. But what?
I have to ask this, would you ever be interested in doing a
podcast with Rudnick on at the same time or is that even

(01:36:25):
legally? Oh, it's legal.
We don't have it all to happen. Yeah, no, we don't have any
anything with Rudnick. The only thing that with Rudnick
is I am hair trigger to. If he were to ever defame me, I
would come at him. I let the statue of limitations
run out on one thing because I was busy dealing with the other
thing. If he were to ever defame me

(01:36:46):
again, that dude wouldn't even be able to have spit come out of
his mouth without fucking me jumping down his throat.
With that being said, is the. Beside that, most people focused
on was the redneck stuff. Sure.
I don't know. Yeah, sure.
It seems like. You could.
He couldn't do this with me because he couldn't keep up with
me. He couldn't have a conversation

(01:37:08):
with me. I could tear apart everything he
could ever want to say and the only way he would get anywhere
is half truths, which is what was the past, which is how they
got me. Last time that was coordinated,
that was in a coordinated attackwith someone who was in my shop,
proven by the person who made the videos Hurricane In told me

(01:37:29):
personally, this person, this person, this person, we would be
on phone calls talking about howto edit this, where to put this,
how to present this, blah, blah,blah.
And I mean, that was an attack. If we were in the same room, he

(01:37:50):
wouldn't be able to. He can't keep up.
He just can't keep up. He's he's he's about a 72 IQ.
He's got, he's got nothing in this situation.
Nothing. What about with Ian?
Me and Ian are actually like kind of straight Ian.
Ian's not that bright. You know, me and Ian are
straight and all. I tell him this, everything I'm

(01:38:10):
saying right now. Obviously I'm assuming he'll be
seen. He's not that bright.
But I wouldn't go on a podcast with Ian because he's got
nothing to fucking offer anyone else on an opinion.
He said everything he had to sayand a lot of it was twisted
hearsay from other people tryingto he's he was where I was going

(01:38:30):
with he's not that bright. He was easily influenced by
other people in a situation thathad half truths.
The long and short of that wholescenario is expectations versus
reality from both sides without clear expect expectations.
So you come here and you say, I want my GTR Bill.
I say sure, if you don't talk tome again and you wire me money,

(01:38:56):
I assume you want it done my way.
Well God forbid it gets finishedand you look at it and you go I
didn't want this, well what the fuck are we doing?
Right? So that whole situation was
things not being said, business not being handled correctly and
eventually someone being in a position to be influenced by an

(01:39:22):
outside source for that to be a sore subject because I never you
know, there was the first line of the of the first video was a
lie where it was. If you're seeing this video,
I've tried to contact Tommy for two weeks.
That was in documents and provento not be true.
You can't make a statement like that when it's not true.

(01:39:46):
It adds A twist to the story that I'm trying to duck someone.
There's so many little things that you can say that are
harmless that paint a whole picture to defamation doesn't
need to be a one line of this person's this.
It's what you feel like when youleave the story.
That's defamation. And all those little chipping

(01:40:06):
away statements like if you're watching this, he's ducked me
for two weeks, you, you're instantly on you.
He must be guilty. Or he, you know, whatever.
And it's like, that's not even true.
He tried to call me the night before when I was going out to
dinner with my family. And then it's a fucking phone
because I didn't talk to him very often.
And usually when he called me, he wanted something.

(01:40:27):
But his perspective is I told Rudnick to tell you I was trying
to contact you and, and running never told me.
So that's perception versus reality.
He's tried to contact me for twoweeks, little loose statement
there because he didn't try to call me.
He had my number, he had my textmessage, whatever.
He said Rodnick tell Tommy blah blah blah and Rodnick chose not.
This is from me inside. I don't know.

(01:40:49):
Rodnick chose not to tell me why.
Who the fuck knows if, but here's the difference.
Because I'm loyal. Whenever somebody said I've been
trying to contact Rodnick, he owes me money or or something
like that, I'd be like fuck you,he doesn't owe you money.
This is bullshit. I know the story, blah, blah,
blah, blah, blah. Dude, you don't know how many
battles I fought for that kid with Tommy the painter who

(01:41:10):
fucked him out of money. Even Jack and Roberto, who, you
know, not Jack so much in the sense that that, but I, I had
confrontations with my friend Jack because of what went on
with certain deals that running was a part of with HP logic like
that shit, I was his like, what's a word?

(01:41:33):
I I was on his side, Coordinator.
Yeah, no, I was on his side for everything.
Even when he was wrong, I was onhis side, you know, because I
knew him and his lacks lackadaisical attitude and how
that can get him in trouble. And I'd also call him a fucking
idiot all the time for letting himself get in a certain
positions. At the end of the day, I don't

(01:41:57):
think he's doing better than me.I'll say it like that.
It's it's not my my place again to like pick a side or say who's
doing better and best and whatever.
I I feel in a better position that I would want to be than
what I see from his side. And it's, I think it's, that's
visible. So my thing is, I just want to
make sure that if for any reasonsomeone's dealing with any

(01:42:20):
relative situation, what is? What do you get out of this?
Well, I'll tell you advice. If you ever there's two pieces
of advice, write things down andagree on them have them in
writing so they can be referenced.
No, you said this look, which isa tiring fucking thing to do.
But if there's money involved, write things down.
And if you're on the other side,and this is advice for even like

(01:42:48):
Ian, have proof that you were trying to resolve it outside of
destroying or trying to destroy someone's reputation.
Because at the end of the day, Inever heard a fucking word that
there was a problem until a video went up about me.
I mean, that's almost let me letme rephrase that because I, I

(01:43:09):
did have conversations with withIan where it was like, you think
that I think this give me something in writing.
But like that was two years before a video.
So there was no conversation of there's a discrepancy.
You need to right this wrong or even here's a complaint from my
attorney. What do you want to do?
It was let's go to the Internet and hurt his reputation and hurt

(01:43:32):
all the people around him and hurt everyone and cause a big
scene for a little clout. Because at the end of the day,
that's the only thing you would gain is a couple views.
That's all. You're not gaining.
You didn't win. You didn't get what publicity's.
Done at that point. Yeah, publicity's done.
And other people were sitting back going, oh, this is working
beautifully while not having to put their neck out.

(01:43:53):
Nobody else could have been suedfor defamation except for Ian.
How does that look for the people who influenced him and
and manipulated situations? Like he was told I was going out
and buying a $600,000 R 34 or like just who gives a fuck.
I bought a $200,000 one. But like he was being like poked

(01:44:14):
and prodded to like react and people were facilitating it.
It is. It is.
It's really not a very boy thingto do.
It's no offense. It's a little femalish, you
know? Emotional.
Yeah, it's just, it's, it's pussy shit.

(01:44:36):
So. Well, after the fact now that I
guess pretty much everything's died down at this point.
Videos. You're still talking about it.
People involved aren't talking about, so if you're still
talking about it, you're the loser.
I guess now, now that is there anything that you can see from a
calm head perspective, post perspective that you could have

(01:44:57):
done from the jump that would have completely excluded all of
this from happening? Like what I just said, like what
I just said, you know, and what I would have changed it or
reacted differently was I wish Igo back and it was actually
pretty like I don't have anxietyor anything.
It like it like fucked with me alittle bit.
It made me like uncomfortable oncamera and even traveling

(01:45:18):
because I got like threats and like somebody said like they
were going to knock me out at something and I wasn't looking
or whatever. Like that's real.
That could happen. There's fucking idiots out there
that I'll go to jail for their, you know, chick latooth Internet
idol. But like, at the end of the day,
I could have, I should have justkept pushing him and like, fuck

(01:45:40):
you. And that's it.
Yeah. Instead of like pulling back and
being like I, I like pulled backto like look at the the climate
and they and they didn't stop like there were like there The
defamation thing. I was telling you that I let the
statue of limitation run. I was running a claim by I
threaten him and his family. Like he said that in a it's
still up on his YouTube, which actually is a probably get that

(01:46:02):
removed. But like I wonder if that
actually tolls the statue of limitations that it's still
public. I never even really thought
about that, but it's still visible and you can go see it
today. So I would argue I should
probably call my attorney. I never did This literally just
happened to me just now. Just thought of that.
None of that was true. I never threatened his, him and

(01:46:23):
his family. That's fucking stupid.
I don't even need to talk about what was misconstrued.
But like, I didn't do that. Yeah.
When things like that would happen, it would like, reset me.
It would reset my, like, timeline of getting over it or,
or dealing with it or whatever. So it sucked.

(01:46:44):
It's over. I'm, I'm chilling, you know?
I got everything I want and I, I, I hope that my enemies are
unhappy and miserable and don't have the things they want and
they get to see me talking to you about how lame they are and
see the shit I own and see what I've built.
I've got a family, I've got a house, you know, I'm building a

(01:47:05):
house or a property like I'm doing good.
And that is the best revenge, you know, It's just your life
sucks and I'm chilling, you know?
We're all still human. Yeah, that's my petty side of
me. Yeah, I'm petty.
So it's if you, there's so many persona, Yeah, if you fuck with
me, I don't want you around, youknow, it's that simple.

(01:47:27):
Well, everyone's asking obviously in your comments and
everything else when and you mentioned it too, when is the
content coming back? So I have like a bunch of banked
videos, but I don't want to comeback and then go go ghost for
another 100 days. So I'm going to come back when I
have like a solid 2 videos a week for a couple months and I'm
about there. I've got a bunch of shop bills.
I got a bunch of my own bills. I got a bunch of shit I bought,
I got a bunch of traveling I did.
I went to GTR festival in Australia.

(01:47:49):
We're prepping for GTR Festival USA where last year we what I
consider we swept it without, you know, not the drag racing
side, just what we were there for.
We did fucking amazing. That's why our focus right now.
And yeah, that's, that's kind of, that's kind of what's up.
So those videos will come out and this is really the higher

(01:48:09):
paying months of YouTube anyway.So right now till December is
where you make the real money. January to fucking July is like
you're working for nothing, you know, so it'll come back.
It'll it'll be back, let's say September 1st, you know,
sometime around there after all this nonsense dies down and we
can clean the shop and I can park my cars away that they're

(01:48:29):
not being taken apart like that's today, you know what I
mean? So we're going to Japanese
classic car show in Long Beach, we're going to ours meeting in
Japan, we're going to GTR festival, we're going to Grid
Life. We were going to go to Car week,
but we're going to Grid Life andwe're going to Tokyo Auto Salon.
Like we're going, we're getting back into it.

(01:48:50):
So sick the end of the year. We're actually going to be there
this weekend. That's cool.
Oh yeah, yeah, that's what that text I got.
I've got a pass is waiting for me.
Oh yeah. Well, hell yeah, man.

machine shop or deal or wants toget an RV built, that's in
