@@CorgiOnStilts_ Thanks for that. I just assumed it was a completely new platform. Still can't wait to see what sick builds will be done with this car. So much potential!
@@CorgiOnStilts_ CONGRATS FAM! I'm loving the new Z. Got an ETA on arrival date? And hoping the dealer doesn't screw you with markup cause demand will absolutely be high. I just paid my car off so I'd like to live car payment free for a year or two before jumping back into them payment waters lol.
@@DarkMikaruX nah in Australia we don't have arrival date or pricing yet. Fairly confident one hasn't even arrived in our country yet. Not having a car loan hanging over your head is a great feeling man. Hopefully the Z will be worth the debt. Only time will tell.
Hats off to you sir. That incar footage at 12:10- is by far the best POV shot that I've seen so far when it comes to video and audio quality. Brilliant video.
I can nothing but totally agree with you. It was so intense for me to watch it. I had a feeling like I really, I'm mean really was sitting in that specific car! II know it sounds stereotypical, but the camera says it all in my opinion..Great job from all of the people who were involved!
I’ve read the new Z motor is not closed deck design so it might be difficult to build one to over a 1000bhp and be dependable. So it makes sense to use a GTR motor especially for the high stresses of Formula Drift.
You got a video with Chris!!! You’ve come such a long way in terms of production quality and features in “the build” series! Can’t wait to see where the channel goes in the next few years. You can only go up!
Christ gotta be blessed I have good taste coz the algae Rythmz recommended this and I don’t regret clicking. Oh god, it was sooooo good. This entire video made me feel like a kid a again. Taking my drift sims very seriously. But this is IRL and gosh. Those shots were ephemeral man. Thank you.
Great video! I Love Foz & his FD friends! Hes soo chill. When he & Turk get together its mayhem! What blows me away is their ability to not only drive but wrench & build the cars!! F1 has paid drivers as does NASCAR & others. Just wished that more $ was available for teams to hire drivers & relieve some of the pressure off Foz & others. I know Papadopoulos has a driver but from what I know, hes the exception.
The VR30 is hitting about 1000HP with AMS test mule but its reliability and consistency is still up in the air, buuut we shall see the VR30 is about to get a lot more love with the Z just around the corner.
@@Areku06 You aren't getting a B58 for under 49K new and lets be real here 99.99% of the community isn't tuning to that point even among the after market community. Both engines have similar limits and prices up till around 530-550WHP.
@@BigHeadClan you can get used 2018 bmw 340i under 40k with 15-25k miles almost new. B58 with stock turbo maxed out around 500whp but with pure 800 turbo it’s about 750-800whp, big boost turbo can get you to 1000whp with upgraded fuel pump and some meth or e85.
@@BigHeadClan you may as well get 2017-18 bmw m3 and beat 99% of vr30 cars for under $49k stock. If you do FBO that’s about 650hp stock turbo. S55 is hand built, closed deck engine that easily handle 650-700hp daily on stock turbo. S55 is most reliable used m3. It’s probably best sport sedan for the money on used market and it looks incredible.
@@Areku06 Then your comparing apples and oranges, the 340i is a very different cars dynamically and the Z/Supra are a much better sports car and starting point in terms of performance. You are also comparing a new car vs a used car in a few years you can probably get a used Z for a fair bit less than a 3-series. (Pending on demand/and popularity naturally). Again the VR30 has similar limits , although you do need a few extra supporting mods to hit 700-800WHP for the VR30, but your spending thousands less up front so total cost works out to be around the same. End of the day though majority of people modding their cars are tossing some down pipes and a tune at these for around 450-500WHP and are just going to enjoy it. As for the M3 its a bit closer in purpose and a fantastic car (M2 is more my thing) but again used vs new and you're spending double what a used Z is likely to cost.
Im pretty sure an engine swap is due for most vehicles when you want to hit 1200 hp. Besides those few holy grails that come with the swaps from factory
The fuck is big power to you? Anything over 400hp is big power if you plan on driving anything other than a straight line, but most Americans can't figure that out so they chase 1000hp to play right foot go vroom vroom on highway.
Car looks great - crazy great setup - GT-R engine - this thing cost some dough-re-mi - would like to know OIL brand @Chris Forsberg uses - my fave on Earth is AMSOIL. Versus drifting would like to see this thing actually "race" - great video !
But why replace the engine? Why not take the VR30 and bring it to the limit? I think this is a much more interesting project because it opens the door to new mods for Nissan Z and Infiniti Q50/Q60
dont think there is support yet for higher hp builds plus to be competitive in FD you need 1000hp+ so if hes running 500hp while others are running double his hp then hes just going to lose. Plus Forsberg has been using the VR38 for years why change engines now?
I wouldve been impressed if it used the original engine...that just means the Z motor is pointless. P.s the supra used the same b58 motor and won last years championship
Z engine is not pointless , they chose to use the GTR engine . It was a choice . I would say something about the supra but it’s not a real jdm car any more .. so it’s “ pointless” speaking on it.
Is the front fender largely the same as the stock on the upcoming Z? If so, I'll have to remember to get a wrap or paint job that is going to utilize a black to separate the front grille from the rest of the front fender. This one looks greater, but the stock Z I'm seeing online don't seem to have nearly as nice of a fender.
Good job guys. Very impressed with your build with this new chassis. Why would someone go with a VR30? You have races to win. Even though the size of these tracks a smaller engine can do it too.
Ok.. so it's got a GTR motor in it. That makes more sense. I was about to say.. dayum.. car only been out for a month and someones figured out how to get 1300HP out of it already! Jeezus! lol

Give it time my man and subscribe
with time ! keep it up
Hats off to you sir. That incar footage at 12:10- is by far the best POV shot that I've seen so far when it comes to video and audio quality. Brilliant video.
The highlights are literally blown out and clipping throughout most of the shot. Quite poor video exposure settings if we're being totally honest.

none of this footage is done by the channel tho. just taken from other youtube videos.
Wait I went back and I didn't see a camera on his helmet. How?!?!?
No cap I was reading this comment and watching the vid a y the same time and I check the vid time and it’s 12:10
12:10 at this moment, this has to be the best in-car experience/feed I have ever seen. I was literally grinning from ear to ear, just amazing!
Love the quality and amount of work put into each video, keep it up
10:00 love that tight radius. What a spectacular build
no this car is not ready for drift absolutely, need many many hours to make right suspension setup
Why this channel doesn't have more views? What's wrong with TH-cam?! Thanks Cody you do amazing work brother
I wasn't expecting this quality of work from a channel this size. Great Video!
Love the idea, love the storytelling! Very cool seeing what goes into prepping an FD car. Keep it up Cody!

1000 would be too much for the Z imo. id like to see high power builds in the 800s.
Give it time people will figure it out.
@@mitchjames9350 it has had plenty of time its the same motor from the q60 red sport
Don’t worry 2jz swap is on the way
@@ninemillimeter1 AMS Q60 Red Alpha comes to mind... with that kind of money, I wonder if the VR38 swap is cheaper.
I am in love with the new Z. I want one so bad! It's my goal to get one
4:05 for the non initiated and new people they know him as Rob, but all the OGs know him as Chair Slayer 😎

1300 hp damn 😱
Dayum the wide body looks crazy 🔥
Wow man awesome vid. Subbed!🙏🏼
1:51 It has a VR30 Engine from Infiniti Q50/Q60*
Watch it again ;)
The 400z stock comes with the same engine as the Q60 but the formula drift 400z is engine swapped with the same engine as the r35
The new Z is gorgeous
This is just Absolute Overkill to the max across the board
I think the "Tron" led outline design for the sport would benefit in safety and cool factor maybe in watch-ability for the sport.

It looks gorgeous 😍
Wow 6 mins ago never seen this channel love it, u guys need an editor, manager, assistant?!

You just confirmed buying the new z is pointless if you expect to make big power. By swapping the motor.
Im pretty sure an engine swap is due for most vehicles when you want to hit 1200 hp. Besides those few holy grails that come with the swaps from factory
I would say where the Z shines is really the chassis. It was understandable to swap the VR but LS would be the move in my opinion.
@@cooliecrewspeedshop VR38 is just as capable as the LS. Built billet VR38s have seen upwards of 4000hp.
The fuck is big power to you?
Anything over 400hp is big power if you plan on driving anything other than a straight line, but most Americans can't figure that out so they chase 1000hp to play right foot go vroom vroom on highway.

personally, i feel that the 370Z was the pinnacle i terms of design
nice, my first example seing the car outside of its concept/stock form. feels very familiar to my 370 lol
That body kit makes me want a Z so bad
those turbos❤❤❤❤❤
The livery is a work of ouauauauauauah
That car is so bad ass
only 60k? deserves more..
sir you just gained a new suscriber
The car is bonkers.
Thank you for using ultra wide format, and not just putting bars on the top and bottom. :)
brand new body kit got so beat up 😲
Awesome video man. Please do other pro drift cars!
But why replace the engine? Why not take the VR30 and bring it to the limit?
I think this is a much more interesting project because it opens the door to new mods for Nissan Z and Infiniti Q50/Q60
3-4 weeks made so time ig
dont think there is support yet for higher hp builds plus to be competitive in FD you need 1000hp+ so if hes running 500hp while others are running double his hp then hes just going to lose. Plus Forsberg has been using the VR38 for years why change engines now?
Bc it’s already near peak power before becoming really unreliable
Brace yourself for a Rocket Bunny bodykit
Chris Forsberg is a god
Wow nice car i wish someday i could buy one new supporter from Philippines
Damn didn’t know the car was even out yet
This shit is so beautiful
This is probably the last all gasoline engine Z.
Car is amazing.

got 8th place major success, only lost about 1/4th of the car ,very nice lol.

already, they just launched it this week??
