Should be interesting build and it’ll turn out amazing, but I’d be nervous being the owner having my Missouri plates show up on TH-cam with no explanation of how my car is legal in the US especially not being a MotoRex or a show or display eligible car.
Tommy’s channel has ascended to pretty near the top of my TH-cam hierarchy over the past year or so, and that’s been earned by the quality work you gentlemen are putting in. He’s even influenced how I’m building my own project car with vapour blasting and zinc’d hardware etc. Credit where credit’s due… 🔰👨🏻🚀
@@dutch2smoked927 I was introduced to him by Jimmy several years ago and I remember thinking what a dick he was to them, but I just didn’t understand what he’s like and wasn’t serious just his sense of humour is like that. I came to realise anyone would be lucky to have him in their corner and watching how he is with Chris, Adam, Jimmy, DJ, Grant and his shop team etc made me see he’s a very sound guy, not to mention his excellent eye for detail and his taste for and ability to source rare parts. Plus he’s hilarious calling people out like an absolute savage, the jdm space video is possibly his finest work and I occasionally still watch it for a laugh 😅👌
That PA system is sick as fuck. And judging by a lot of the comments in here, people either don't watch the video before posting their thoughts or really suck at listening.
Keep the rb25, rb26 covers, hks top mount single turbo, r34 bits and pieces eg the intercooler, replace the badges, nice simple and fast with a bit of oem flair. Nothing too over the top.
8:27 a lot of the gtts came with xenons from factory, including this one. You can tell it's the gtt ones by how the rubber piece is reaching around the corner because of the hood lip...
Paint match hood and trunk. Stock R34 GTR bumper. GTR stock wing. No GTR badges. Rb26 covers. Though a 2.8 would be sick. Morfabs custom Milled RB25 cam gear cover. Forward facing manifold. Bay paint. Spectrum SM450r turbo. R35 coil kit. Rbrebuilds trigger kit because the prp is too flashy. High lift cams. NISMO fuel pressure regulator. Drop in fuel pump. 1300cc Injectors. 1 piece aluminum driveshaft. NISMO 1.5 - way LSD. Get rid of the carbon interior pieces. Corbeau RRS seats. C's shifter. HKS hypermax coilovers. NISMO arms. Undercoated.
He should 350 sbc swap it with a 4L60e and a one ton rear axle, lift it put some 33inch tires on it and have a rwd off-road skyline, just remove bumpers and make tube bumpers for plowing down trees
That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard, that's like saying if you put a LS in it then it's trying to make it a Corvette. I agree the RB25 is good enough but if he wanted the 26 who gives a shit. You GTR fan boys are the fucking worst.
I vote keep it as a well done 2.5 Neo with pretty fabrication rather than just bolt on JDM stuff. LZ’s r34 style but the RWD Neo single turbo version aiming for like 500whp on a built 25
Few years back when I was looking for a weekend car I was choosing between r34 gtt or 350z I chose Z because of bigger engine. Now GTTs are tripple the price for rust buckets. Hamburgers jacked price so much and they import Skylines in any condition to the Burgerland
The filmer's camera and lens set up looks so much better than your vlogging set up. Happy to see you guys with a R34, cant wait to see the project at completion and how much you guys improve it from where is was.
im so ready to sell all 4 of my bmws and buy a R32 or R33. this is absolutely wicked and that PA system is gnarly. id want a fart noise so i could troll folks hard af
Keep the Neo! Front mount intake, HKS cams, HKS turbo, top mount manifold with front mount intercooler with all the zinc hardware of corse, wrinkle black RB26 cover and intake with the red. That’s it buddy got deep pockets !
I bought a super clapped out Porsche Cayenne turbo S a few years back and I couldn’t find why it had big ass speakers in the grilles. Found a PA system with a bunch of preset noises, amplified as well. That along with a bunch of aids underglow and PlayStation 2/Xbox setups. Thanks for bringing me back to the day of ripping all that nonsense out
Keep the Neo make it 2.8 forward facing manifold for sure though ITBs would be cool 26 covers possibly make them symmetrical though what plaque would you put on the coil cover?
Yeahhh boy! If it was mine: Definitely stick with the Neo, tons of potential. Looks like an East Bear Spec 2 body kit, which even though it isn't OEM it looks like how the GTT should've come. Painting the engine bay AR with the plans for the engine you went through out would be mint. Remove the carbon fiber in the interior, all black Recaro SR2s, Haltech IC7, Defi center gauges.
owner has to do exactly what tommy said maybe minus 2.8, but definitely keep the neo, big single greddy ffp, top mount single(gt3582r?), and 26 covers for aesthetics, then fuck around with 550-600hp
Can't wait to see the final product 2 years from now. Always exceptional work and detail. The output seem to take forever. Grant's 34 will look amazing though at the end!
I had that same PA system in a clapped old Sentra SER Spec-V I used to daily years ago and let me tell ya… I had so much fun screwing with people around town with it. Go sit in a busy parking lot and hit the cow sound and watch people get extremely confused lol.
imo, the car just needs the oem+ treatment. Clean it up, make it nice. Engine stuff aside, just needs someone with 'good taste' to go over it and get rid of all the nonsense like the rear wing, fix the trim, clean up the interior etc. Make it 'nice'. And it has been delivered to the perfect shop to do just that with tommy at the wheel
So, the Australia hack with the neo is the head bolts on to an rb30e block with one water jacket needing to be slotted, giving 9:1 comp. Those blocks are getting harder to find tho
thinkin colors. black or white exterior paint always looks clean in my opinion. the engine bay would be beautiful with a sparkle black or sparkle white? maybe 👀
This will be one insane transformation, cannot wait to see it!! Jealousy is REAL on this car!
Every Z must have the horn now Jimmy.
Jimbo! You’re comfortably sat in the top bracket of my TH-cam channels and have been for years. But you know this 😌
someone of your team should build an ocubo factory 4 door gtr. check their work on youtube

Been to the top for me ever since the s12 🤣 iykyk
Just for shits and giggles, put the PA system in the 370z when rollin with the Boyz. Great job on the videos and work you guys do!
100% agree
That PA system is sick as fuck. And judging by a lot of the comments in here, people either don't watch the video before posting their thoughts or really suck at listening.
He should definitely keep the 25 neo, your 32 GTST and silver 4 door proved how capable they are
ExAAAActly
Shout out to the owner for taking a chance on our boy. I’m sure the old stonebag will kill it.
the previous owner of the 34 has a 32 and 33 that both make some good power lol. friends with his son
@@bradensnook6313 the R33 DID make good power lol

You don't take a chance with Tommy and Josh
I’ve never clicked on a video so fast
Trump 2024

Likewise
Same as me to so sick .dreams man dreams.
Saaaame for me
That is gangster!
Can’t wait to see what it’s like when you’re through with it... the first Fyeahspec 34
Word on the street...fyeah-spec are more rare than Vspec II Nür
Please do that horn in every car ever from now on 🤣🤣
I can just see Tommy shouting at Rudnik from the PA system in the R34...lolol
Tommy - "This is the best mod I've ever seen" 😂 😂 😂
I'd have a hard time choosing my favorite barnyard animal... they're all pretty rad.
Make it all one color, build the Neo, make it a good street car
The car's pretty damn rad, it does have presence
The horn thing is the dumbest thing to have some laughs i love it
The horn needs to go in all future builds!!
100% agree 2.8 bottom, cams, single, forward intake
Tommy is going to be one of them jdm legends in the future that we all talk about today
So sick! Definitely paint match the carbon and the OEM wing would be beautiful.
I'd like to see the car all paint matched, gtt wing and just a built Neo
You definitely need that horn/PA system on your Z and truck!
He would use it to talk so much shit to ruddy lol😂
that pa thing needs to make it on your restoration options list and put it under the to be cool option
Your channel is growing so fast rn Tommy. More blessings coming and I cant wait to be there watching along the way

I’d love to see some wider tires in it also, with the height and TE’s, would loveee to see some thicker tyres!
He should 350 sbc swap it with a 4L60e and a one ton rear axle, lift it put some 33inch tires on it and have a rwd off-road skyline, just remove bumpers and make tube bumpers for plowing down trees
Bruuuuuh that horn had me on the fucking floor 😂😂😂 Definitely a must in every project
Keep the Neo, it's a cool ass engine that makes the car unique. Putting in an rb26 would make it feel like it's trying to be a gtr.
100% 400hp easy
GTR badge in the grill is trying.
Who cares, better engine.
Mine has a 26 and id never go back to a 25

Dude LEAVE THAT SPEAKER ON THERE. That is legendary.
I've always wanted to see an R34 on the channel, your outlook and approach is very motivating. Cheers mate!
Just got done watching Jimmy’s video and then Poppa Tom uploads. SICK!! Todays gonna be a good one.
“It’s my first one” you sounded choked up 🤣
Burp was on its way up
I’ve got a super clean one of these in NZ can’t wait to see this build and get some tips! Keep up the sick content lads. Killing the game
This car is local to me haha. I raced it and the driver was a great guy! Great to see it getting the fyeah spec!
are you a local missourian aswell? if so are you up north?
I am in missouri also. Ofallon mo
Well… I am up north but in Minnesota 😅😂. The car must’ve gotten sold.

I can’t wait to see it after u dry ice and detail it and put your touches on it to make it Fyeah spec
RB30 bottom end from a VL Commodore or RB31 skyline with a rb26 head. Perfect combo if you can get a block shipped over there easy enough
FUCK YEAH
Hell yeah
frick yeah
The siren "thats highly illegal" lmao
im so ready to sell all 4 of my bmws and buy a R32 or R33. this is absolutely wicked and that PA system is gnarly. id want a fart noise so i could troll folks hard af
Hks 2.8 gtr wide body kit oem spoiler and extensions to lift it up big brake kit and 2 matching gtr r34 seats and an oem front bumper and lip
Tommy reaction to the animal sounds had me dying. Lmao
I’m not gonna lie you definitely need one of those horns and PA system for your Z just to mess around at the track
damn for the first couple of minutes I thought tommy bought it lol
Imagine getting gapped by this thing and suddenly hearing barn yard animals while it pulls away
Very great starting point, you guys will do this car justice!
No way you bought Landons dads r34! I’ve been around this car so much, and now I get to see my favorite car enthusiast do his magic with it💪💪
He didn't buy it. It's a customer car
Keep the Neo! Front mount intake, HKS cams, HKS turbo, top mount manifold with front mount intercooler with all the zinc hardware of corse, wrinkle black RB26 cover and intake with the red. That’s it buddy got deep pockets !
The BEST speaker choice is the rooster. "YOURE SLEEPING!"
Anyone else not get their hoodies from the past giveaway?
I bought a super clapped out Porsche Cayenne turbo S a few years back and I couldn’t find why it had big ass speakers in the grilles. Found a PA system with a bunch of preset noises, amplified as well. That along with a bunch of aids underglow and PlayStation 2/Xbox setups. Thanks for bringing me back to the day of ripping all that nonsense out
You gotta keep the PA speaker system. That rooster noise is hysterical.
petition for the animal noises to stay on the final versionof this car!!!!
I love josh “move the fuck out the way”😂😂
Keep the Neo make it 2.8 forward facing manifold for sure though ITBs would be cool 26 covers possibly make them symmetrical though what plaque would you put on the coil cover?
Yeahhh boy! If it was mine:
Definitely stick with the Neo, tons of potential. Looks like an East Bear Spec 2 body kit, which even though it isn't OEM it looks like how the GTT should've come. Painting the engine bay AR with the plans for the engine you went through out would be mint. Remove the carbon fiber in the interior, all black Recaro SR2s, Haltech IC7, Defi center gauges.
Tommy wheres my merch i ordered it in October! Still havent gotten it
The choice of engine in this thing should be easy. A vk56 Street build from Hartley engineering in NZ!
34s are the best ones, I wonder if their still reasonably priced over in Japan since their technically not legal yet
Im betting money you have a 34 gtr hiding in Japan
that PA speaker thing is so JDM. i think it needs to stay just hidden somewhere. Stoked to see a 34 in the shop
Needs a a set of ITB’S from a GTR and a RB30 bottom end rb26 covers and engine dress up
Active red with black or carbon fiber hood is always fire. Seriously a weird horn. Paint does look good though.
owner has to do exactly what tommy said maybe minus 2.8, but definitely keep the neo, big single greddy ffp, top mount single(gt3582r?), and 26 covers for aesthetics, then fuck around with 550-600hp

Tommy’s literally the goat. Makes me proud to be from the east coast
Tommy's logic:
Ganadors: NO
Animal noise horn: YES
RB25, with an HKS Turbo, any exhaust setup, standalone ecu, and seq transmission
Paint the hood/trunk, get a new wing, take off those badges, refresh the 25neo and that thing would be sick
2022 animal sound horn is the new wave for sure
Animal sounds best mod ever confirmed.
Cries because I love 4 door R34s and dad hates them:/
I would do a 2.6 engine, oem gtr bumber, oem gtr wing, change the wheels the fitment looks weird. New passenger seat and the fyeah touch all around.
sad to see it gone from our car community but excited to see someone who will go crazy with it
I need one of those PA systems so I can drive around telling drivers to get out of the left lane!!
I had that same PA system in a clapped old Sentra SER Spec-V I used to daily years ago and let me tell ya… I had so much fun screwing with people around town with it. Go sit in a busy parking lot and hit the cow sound and watch people get extremely confused lol.
i would really like to see it cleaned up with stock body panels and aero. I don't know much about gt-t R34s
imo, the car just needs the oem+ treatment. Clean it up, make it nice. Engine stuff aside, just needs someone with 'good taste' to go over it and get rid of all the nonsense like the rear wing, fix the trim, clean up the interior etc. Make it 'nice'. And it has been delivered to the perfect shop to do just that with tommy at the wheel
Dude Im HYPE AF. FyeahSpec R34 build content!!! Love The Channel Brotha!!!
I say build up the Neo because RB25 has the VVT Cam on the intake side which the RB26 doesn't have unless HKS V-Cam
So, the Australia hack with the neo is the head bolts on to an rb30e block with one water jacket needing to be slotted, giving 9:1 comp.
Those blocks are getting harder to find tho
YES - fabric cleaning with dry ice!
thinkin colors. black or white exterior paint always looks clean in my opinion. the engine bay would be beautiful with a sparkle black or sparkle white? maybe 👀
or 2 tone it but a nice one. like black and blue or black and red or white and fuckin pink
HKS 2.8 would be a banger on this car!
Its got that paul walker 2 fast 2 furious wing.
Personal opinion it needs a RB30 and endless brakes all 4 corners
i can hear it now. Tommy " HEY!! STOP FUCKING AROUND!" pa blasting.
Getting major NFS Payback vibes with the red R34 with carbon hood. Just needs the rest of the Z-Tune body kit, lol.
OMFG.. that speaker KILLED me.
25 neo build is the way to go with 26 covers. Gtr bodykit without badges too
I need that speaker for my whip!! Tell me those are OEM nissan, they about too make some bank lmaooo
26 covers, but keep the neo camgear cover, gtsr style low mount exhaust manifold
You need that P.A system in ur 350Z so you can shout at Rudnik while drift battling LMAO
