I was a year late to the gc8 build videos. Im excited about this!

Look's like you had loads of fun. I don't know how many times I've said... "I'm never going to do this again. Next time I'll pay someone" As well as next time it's going on a rotisserie, Now you get to do the good stuff like weld seam sealer, and zinc... 12kg's ( 25 pounds )

Lol yep every time, there just something about paying someone to do something that you can do in just a few short 15 hour days with an angle grinder. Your guess is pretty much spot on, it was 23.4 lbs.

Great to see you again man!

Good to see you building the 350Z! Nice Subaru in the background there... ;)

Thanks! I’m going to try and be a bit more regular on posting updates on the build, hopefully I’ll be getting to the fun stuff soon enough but I’m excited to finally have started.

Glad to see the video post

Glad you like them!

great to see you back and getting after it. Look forward to seeing you back in the woods. Did you go to sno drift for #199?

Man that's alot to cut out! I'll be doing the same with my 370z this year so be watching what you get up to and buying a plasma haha. Do the 350z brakes clear 15" wheels? 370z don't fit I'll see if I can clearance them a little to fit as it's close but otherwise going to have to look at fitting something else to it

Definitely worth it for a plasma cutter if you have to hack apart the car and yeah the stock Z brakes on the 350 clear 15" wheels. I had to remove a unused bracket on the knuckle, but aside from that it didn't need anything else. Good luck with the 370!

That plasma cutter is cheating! XD

It does feel like that sometimes!

Hey what was that thing you used to remove the sound deadening? Just wondering if there's a none air tool for it, for us folks at home.

It’s called a needle scaler. I’m not sure if there’s an electric version of it though.

I also have a 350z and I want to modify it to make it a rally car and I need to decide which coilovers I should use, which one do you recommend? (I don't have a very high budget) I want to drive it on dirt and gravel, nothing special

bro you need to put more energy and less word into this, the intro alone made me loose focus. Im watching the video today but clicked it yesterday. if you greeted with some energy and said "today we will cut out body panels to make the car lighter" and just got to work, cool, I would have watched. the energy in the beginning can be really simple...essentially just dont talk flat :D maybe sprinkle in some simple, small exitment like "we'll see how that goes". thats it idubbbz is IMO very good at this. dud had a table and some stuff on it and gained x millioin subscribers. another good exmaple is harald baldr he makes travel videos, which can be incredibly boring, but he tries and does little things to make is interesting and that really makes the difference. this is a shor attention span, quick dopmain fix kinda thing after all and not a presentation. little adjustment is neccessary. otherwise i appreciate the format that you show almost every step, then little talk after every step like what was difficult, etc...I dont watch the cleetus mcfarland stuff anymore because its too much any energy and too little words, you barely know whats going on anymore lol. I also dont watch speed academy anymore because, boy do they talk a lot, boring as fuck, could be a very cool channel but they just dont get it. EDIT: holy shit just checked speed academy and they changed their shit, 640k subs now and sponsored by continental. no more lengthy talk intros, they give it some enegery, they even do a "coming up"...wow....time to resub... EDIT 2: who also does a great jon is mat armstrong who rebuilds cars. ok the subject otself is kinda exciting already but he also manages to show everything and keep it entertanining, shows some energy and yeah...dont know in detail how he does it but i watched hours of his stuff

I’m gonna need a TLDR lol On a serious note, I know the videos could use more work but I’m not interested in making videos that appeal to the short attention span crowd. Thanks for the suggestions though, I’ll keep them in mind.

So nice to have a new build. I totally subscribed back
