I've been having exams lately which make me a little bit stressed out. However these videos of you working on the stagea really make me cheer up and be happy. Thank you Tofu Auto Works!

Haha, mate you're out there inspiring thousands of people everyday. Not to mention you have a proper grown-up job on top of all the amazing content you put out. I mean this when I say it, if it weren't for you and people like you out here showing what the car community has to offer, I doubt I'd be where I am today and probably wouldn't have ever bothered with KZread.
Excellent work! I feel like your design style has evolved so much for the better from the Mazda. Your choice of lines and the width of the flares keep it very tasteful. Looking forward to the next episode! 😃

Yeah I definitely feel that too. I'm putting more thought into the functionality of the design rather than just "Let's make the widest widebody I can" which was my design philosophy on the Mx5.

Lesson's were learned with the miata, this has to be functional to drive, and legal.
You sir, are an artist!! I also don't know if it has been said before but, you are an example to the youtube community for always using safety equipment where needed and taking your health seriously!

Absolutely, so many people are willing to do the wrong things and somehow thinks it makes sense to upload it and act like some sort of teacher. Theres a few guys I watch that still take it seriously but many dont. Heck I’ve been seeing videos where the comments get spun up because they are doing it wrong and the next video they are mocking the comments. If you are gonna do the wrong thing just dont upload lol.
Loved watching you sculpt the foam from an ugly block into something that just looks right on the car. I don't think I'll look at an M35 Stagea the same way again after seeing this come to life. Keep up the awesome work!
Man! You are absolutely the guy to go to for a kit! Your attention to lines is what a lot oh the modders are missing! Great stuff!

That little trick for drawing where you are going to cut is the coolest thing ever. 🇯🇲 big up.

@C4membert he does em separate, he uses basic tools to do his work. No fancy computer gadgets, he's certainly talented either way 👌
Really enjoy this type of content, where your work does the talking. No need to explain what’s goin on, clearly articulated. Great Job!!
как же она бомбически выглядит в этом обвесе, желаю что бы ты остался доволен симметрией, когда будешь делать вторую сторону, а ещё, слушать звук работы инструментов очень приятно
I like how you’ve incorporated existing body lines into the design, they emphasise the extra width.
I watched all 22 episodes and really enjoyed it.
Ive watched this video no less than 100,000 times!
And that, ladies and gentlemen, goes someway to explaining why a body kit for my car would cost at least 35% (before paint + finishing) of the car's purchase value . Outstanding! 👏👏👏
Great use of the existing body lines, a laser and a long bending ruler. Looks great!
Mate you are so next level with all this it's insane. Total inspiration
From Iraq, very wonderful design and work, I congratulate you
it is very interesting to see how the body kit for the Sta-GTR is created and what effort it is But that's something to be proud of, they look like they were made for it
So amazing watching the process... Easy to take for granted when you see the finished article but the amount of work that goes in to the design process, the shaping etc, let alone creating the moulds and everything else that goes in to producing the final product!! Massive respect! :)
Love watching you work, finding the right lines, refining, adjusting, refining again. It's fascinating. I always look forward to your videos!
this man does everything so confidently. id be scared to touch anything after the foam
Rain was making me relaxed
Love that u used a picture of JP's R35 as reference at 10:30
I just Binged watch the videos for this series! Man, i wish i had your videos when i was building a fastback for my Miata back in 2018. This thing is going to be amazing!
Man that’s starting to look so friggen good!
I'm still impressed how you are pulling out all those tricks out of your sleeves with 9 of the 10 times you don't wear sleeves and all. 😂🤣 That's what makes your channel so dam cool in my opinion.
Thanks for watching! I'd like to announce that I've just launched a Patreon page if you would like to support these builds! www.patreon.com/TofuAutoWorks Patrons will be able to watch ad-free videos before they go live on KZread. Patrons also gain access to a bunch of exclusive content like ultra high detailed build threads, behind the scene posts, real time updates, patron mentions, access to polls where you can vote on future video ideas / mods and exclusive merch.
Thats very cool, you can really see the shape coming together now, the way you followed the factory lines gives it such a nice design. It will need a cool paint job after for sure, something bright or a cool pearl metalic maybe. Look forward to the next one!
Superb work!! For the future I would like to see a version 2 with a more unique style for the fenders
Колоссальный объем работы! Молодцом!🤝
Hats off! This goes to like Bob Ross levels of rollercoaster as you shape the things.
Man, you are amazing! Great work!
Bravo man....just wow, so much work, so much skill, and what an amazing design for the widebody.
It looks incredibly cool mate. Love watching you work - can’t wait to see the final product.
I love watching you make these. Your vids are like the dudes digging pools in the woods but for car guys
You are the Michelangelo of the Automotive World!
Wow! Just epic! Your skills and craftsmanship continue to amaze! 👌
Wish I had a shop like this of my own , hopefully one day 🤞
You sir is an artist. You inspire me to do these kind of things
Absolutely a masterpiece. That pandem style is what im wanting to do on my bagged civic sedan. Was sad to see the video end i coulda watched 10hrs straight of u working and not even realize it. Cant waot for next episode. Have a good one

watching you work is really interesting. the stea-gtr is looking good
Dope videos! This man loves sanding!
It's looking fire! Can't wait for the next update!
Whaou, what an amazing job! It is fantastic, congratulations!!!!!
Amazing!. don't know why I would like to see something more extreme, probably because your level of commitment
Love the under cut look on the lower rear wheel well, can't wait to see how you will incorporate the back door to open
So glad I found your channel last night. Love the style of videos, and more importantly, the style of projects! Keep doing what you're doing! You are talented sir!
The amount of progress each video is astonishing!
33:08 Ayyyyyyyyy!!! There it is 😂😂 The progress you've made and the information you give out is phenomenal! I would like to say a huge THANK YOU for that, for providing so much learning material. Thanks again Sensei and keep the videos coming 🔝🔥
Brilliant. I'm hooked. I hope you get someone nice give you a GTR engine and gearbox to compliment this build. This car is special. You are awesome.
Daaaang. That looks 🔥. I am in awe of the work you are doing on this stagia. That wide body is gonna look so cool man. Watching in anticipation
This man has some serious mad skills…I wish he was my neighbor! 😊

You're doing a masterful job. So nice to watch. Keep it up. Don't get tired 🤘
Seharusnya channel yang seperti ini yang banyak subscribernya🔥detailing nya sangat sangat josss
man i just wait for these videos to come out. such attention to detail as always, cant wait to see this done 👌
This is definitely worth staying up late for
Bro that kit is coming together! Nice work!
Man i never thought watching video with caption relaxing me😂. Btw excellent job. Can wait for next episode
This work is pure genius! Your body kit looks already incredible 😉
I'm also amazed at how rudimentary the MX5's body kit looks next to this! Reminds me of TwinZ's 300ZX widebody; just really clean-looking and complimentary to the car.
Such a great Job man, seriously be proud of what you do, im about to start my own widebody project and your videos just make me feel boosted!! 🔥🔥
Wow that is so awesome fabricating going on hey. Thanks for sharing your content.
This is becoming one sick car! Can't wait to see how you mimic this design to the other side, looking to start desiging my wide body on my G35 soon.
Mind blowing as usual! Such great work and excellent eye for details 🙌🏽
When I carve foam like this I tend to use an electric carving knife if I need to carve a lot of material. Works really well.
Amazing work good sir,love working on cars and joyfully driving them after, goodwill to you.
Looks amazing, greetings from Poland
You sir are an artist!
Epic!! Widebody looks awesome!
Looks awesome man! Good job, looking forward to the next episode
Thats some great work! im doing a wide body on my project but i have access to proper wide rear quarter panels and front arches specifically made for the car, they still need to be bonded on and blended in and painted which is a lot of work for me but the fact your'e starting from scratch is just a different level of work and imagination. Well done man, cant wait to see the finished build.
12:20 thats boostwars, the car with which JP Performance started its career, incredible 1000hp build
Very impressive work from the beginning on to now
Amazing work my man. Your a true craftsman
wow you are a true artist and professional!
Another awesome vid! Been looking forward to the start of the widebody. ...and over 77k subs now too - wow!
it would be nice to see the side where the gas door is completed and somehow make that door go upward instead of side ways that way both sides look symmetrical, but man that is very great what you just made right there ,looking awesome !!
This is so amazing an soothing at the same time - it's like wathing a monk painting a car mandala...
you deserve to have more subs the hard work you put in is amazing
This thing belongs in Sema!
This video was worth the wait. Excellent job!
Good job Tofu. I love this car.
THIS IS WORK of ART!!!!!!! Brilliant!
I don't know if you're already planning on doing it but I think that since the front fenders won't be covering the whole bumper you should maybe add a canard or something along those lines to make the car look lower and complete the front end. Awesome progress, can't wait to see the finished parts! This car might even dethrone the RS6 Avant as my favorite wagon ever.
Been binge watching your videos for the last 2 weeks,.amazing eye for detail ,dedication and skill to pull off all of these modifications, be interested to know if you're planning any engine and brake upgrades ? Keep up the great work 👌
Lots of work on that project! Nice going!
Brilliant work
them cardboard aero-discs lookin fire!🔥 lol, all jokes aside i love your channel and the Sta-GTR looks awesome so far, keep it up :D
Going to look sick!
oh. JPs GTR. i've seen it in person. real nice car.
The rear fender is awesome perfect with the design
Dope stuff as always. I really like that bottom section on the front part of rear fender...

粉が舞う作業は、動画見ながら画面に息を吹きかけたよ。 私は元々整備士(今は農家)でFRP造形もしていたので、このチャンネルは楽しいです。
When I first clicked on and saw you was doing an expanding foam body kit I was like NOOOOO! Everyone I've seen attempting this online has just ended up fucking up their cars and from what I've seen, it just doesn't look good. HOWEVER... watching you do this has just astonished me. The end result looked absolutely fantastic. Just goes to show how good these kits can look when you know what you're doing. Hats off to you. You have so much talent and I love to watch the evolution of the cars you build. Just wish i had an ounce of the talent you have. Can't wait for the next installment. Keep up the good work 👍

And just remember..... This is just the first stage of making the plug. By the time he refines it enough to actually make the mould for the final flares, it's going to look awesome!
