I've always wanted to ask this question: What's with the portrait of Kramer from Seinfeld that moves around the workshop? Must be some daft reason 😂 Cheers. Leigh.
ALL of the work the lads do an the cars they work on are quality, an still cool asf don't get me wrong but this thing is pretty high end that's for sure, it's has everything an executed nicely an I guess that's why the owner has the right guys for the job an to keep on that level the rest of the car is at
That is undoubtedly an awesome car, but I've watched you guys, literally work on a lawn mower and still enjoyed every minute. Thanks guys for quality entertainment 👌
Oh how I love '90s Japanese wiring. Makes is so easy to add upgrades if you had a lower spec. Down side was trying to trace a wiring fault and finding 3 dozen unused plugs under the dash.
Wow what a beautiful build! I had a C33 Laruel back in the late 90's (yeah I'm old like Al)- just the RB20, so it was a slug of a thing - handled surprisingly well though, was super reliable and easy to maintain & I really loved it. Wrote it off after an argument with a girl unfortunately. Good to see they are still around and popular for modding.
Hey guys just a small suggestion, if you're doing a battery relocation put an inline/battery terminal fuse in. Just in case you get a short on that long battery wire run you can have a real bad day ;-) 400A terminal fuses just bolt up between the battery terminal and the battery wire and might save your day.
Lovely car. I might be partial to Nissans, and I might be partial to cars of that era in general, but that's still a rock solid build by the looks of it, and the colour choice is just too good!
This car is icey as a hockey puck! I am a turbo V8 guy but I appreciate clean 90's Maximas and Infiniti J30's here in the states. I'm always surprised to learn about similar platforms between the states and Australia because for instance that car would have been a VQ30DE regardless of the trim level and that was the only engine for many years and only changed in subsequent years to a VQ35DE. Meanwhile, a similar platform in Australia always has several potential engines. I'm sure it's due to the cost required to make it compliant for US government environmental restrictions but it always seems that you guys have more engine options to choose from regardless of the vehicle..
Yeah, it shares the platform with the 'RB' engine Skyline, Leopard and Cefiro during Nissan's 'lego Years' where anything could be swapped in or out of each chassis with ease
Definitely. I would say some of this is due to the simple fact that australia is right hand drive. Converting to left hand drive costs more money the more times you have to do it for different engines.
@headsup9550 this is a japanese market car, they weren't sold in Australia. they also pre-date the VQ30 by quite a few years, these came out in the late 80s.
I’ve had several compliments on my Allied Performance Projects - V2 Navy T-Shirt. I plan to order some more when finances permit it! You guys have a lot of SKU’s of shirt I’m sure you’re eager to get rid of some stock.
Was going to buy some merch this month, so the extra shirt deal is very well timed! Is there a code to use, or is it just a case of buying 2 and you guys gift a third?
Tight C1nts! JK.....How about a bit of red heat shrink on the positive lead. Wasnt as bad when I saw the body earthed lead but still..... Keep up the good work boys
So in the U.S. theres an infinity q45 with a....i wanna say 4.5 or 4.4 liter v8 originally im honestly not sure. I owned one in 2014. I dropped a heads/cam L33 with a tremec tko transmission and a ford 8.8 rear diff. V.S. wheels, kw coilovers, r35 front brakes I bought for $1100 on ebay, holley management bone stock interior other than the shifter, working a/c, and it was black. The shit I used to do in that big ass car was absolutely absurd. Like 110mph entries with no handbrake. Just pitched the big ol girl in and held it on the limiter in 3rd. She got it done. But I unfortunately tore the rear subframe bolts from the chassis. As I was like 23 years old I didn't give a shit and sold it.
Are they new Kelford cams, or have they been used and broken in properly before? Only asking as I've just done a friend's car, untested, and initial startup was all about the break-in process for the cams, yet I've never seen that process followed on this channel. Just concerned a lobe may get wiped off the cam if it isn't broken in properly.
What good is the JZ power if the axles are made of angel hair pasta? That's like the gym bros who skip leg day. Otherwise, it's clean af and the wiring looks mint, but let's not half-ass a relatively cheap part.

In my opinion, this is the coolest car I've seen on the channel. That's gangster
Definitely top 5
I wholeheartedly agree with your viewpoint

BIG call! But I agree
Big block crown gotta be top for me 😮💨 or the Barra Bedford
That is undoubtedly an awesome car, but I've watched you guys, literally work on a lawn mower and still enjoyed every minute. Thanks guys for quality entertainment 👌
Hahah, agree
Best build I've seen all year, the finish of everything is bonkers. As much a work of art as a working car, good on you lads to all involved.
We miss you Al!!! Please come back for a build soon. God bless and lots of love from Norway.
Oh how I love '90s Japanese wiring. Makes is so easy to add upgrades if you had a lower spec.

Some really trick work there. Can see these guys have a ratio of knowhow, bravery, and a touch of inasnity.
Omg finally time for the 300zx!!!!!!!! I've literally just bought one (dream car). Keen to see what you do to it.
Seriously nice car guys, I've never seen one before. So cool to see the smile on Matt's face when his baby fired for the first time.
I had one with a CA18I ! underpowered but I still loved it
My 180sx still has the ca18det :p
CA18I. 1.8 single cam NA. Slow and steady wins the race.
Wiring does my head in... Well done yet again Al. 👍

Man turbo Yoda is a wizard .. I wanna be like him when I grow up
Looks awesome, nice seeing options outside the norm 👌
In the 90s all I had were car mags, now I have the skid factory to see how the work is done 👍
Love all the cool sedans that Japan got, that we never got in the states.
Just got my package of merch, you guys are legends..
Thank you so much for the key tag, Toolpro locking hex key set and the Hughes sticker ❤❤❤❤

Having a 91 C33 meself, this is a beautiful build. Great chassis, great engine. I understand why but it hurts my soul to see a 2j in a Nissan.
Whole heartedly agree my man.
Hurts because you know it's superior? ;)
Edit: I'm kidding, I'm kidding! Don't kill me plz
No B pillar makes it look super cool with the windows rolled down. Never really noticed these cars before this video
Happy Birthday Woody best wishes on the 11th🥳 enjoy a lemon sqaush or 2🍻 ....we share the same day.....🎂
Thanks mate! Happy birthday to you too!
Outstanding paint job front tubs 2jz we rollin
Millennium jade is such a good colour 😍
awesome tips ,put in simple terms for simple people ,love your work guys
Gaawd Laawd! Thats a fricken absolute pristine piece of kit, what a well presented weapon!
Nicely done, very clean build
I didn't know about laurels until Kumakubo built his c33, loved them ever since. These 90's japanese boxy sedans look soooooo good
They need to bring the laurel back 🙏
F yeah Barty! Looks great. Paint still looks nice!
Cheers mate, it does! Hope you and the family are well mate will have to go for a cruise soon. Been too long.
@@matthewstjernqvist2858 yeah so keen for a cruise!
Amazing car, made me miss my C33....never should have sold that car!
I love watching your wiring work. If you think 90s Japanese wiring is bad I'd love to watch you guys go through a 90s Mercedes
Lovely car. I might be partial to Nissans, and I might be partial to cars of that era in general, but that's still a rock solid build by the looks of it, and the colour choice is just too good!
That’s what is known as the ‘badgers nadgers’ in the UK.. awesome build! Thank you for sharing with us 😊
love the look of the front wheel tubs, back to video
Farq that’s gorgeous, I love these and the cefiros
Best car on the channel yet!
It's Laurel as in Laurel bush not Lorelle 😂🤣
Exactly. That's why the emblem on the bonnet (not bonnay) is a Laurel Wreath.
6:51 when woody says 'Google' it sets my phone off. Love the show.
Beautiful build and an unusual platform, really enjoyed this one 👏
Long live the Laurel 🙏🏾
I find it interesting how you have to match the injector detsils and not guess. It could be tempting to just make it up and push on.
That is absolutely mint. Millenium Jade looks better in real life than pics /video but it still poos here. Want.
Sick beats woody. But I must admit I am here for Rodger! :)
300ZX - Yeeeaaaassss - tell us more :)
Great looking car, well done Matt. I would choose some smaller diametre wheels, but that is just my taste.
This car is icey as a hockey puck! I am a turbo V8 guy but I appreciate clean 90's Maximas and Infiniti J30's here in the states.

@headsup9550 this is a japanese market car, they weren't sold in Australia. they also pre-date the VQ30 by quite a few years, these came out in the late 80s.
2jzs swap much easier into left hand drive cars cause the turbos n dumps make it difficult with the steering in right hand drive cars
Another amazing and gorgeous car we didn’t get in the states 😢
As a Laurel owner I like this! Mine is a C31 with a VH45DE in it.
Man I love wiring episodes!
Looking forward to your first EV buipd ⚡
Lol...keep looking 😂
Fantastic car and thank you so much for all the knowledge. This channel is amazing.
I placed another merch order last week, 🤞 for a special surprise when it arrives. Great vid guys.
0:36 is that a z on the hoist 👀
yeah boi! love my C33! cant wait to put a decent engine in it one day!
Awesome build. Bin the g30-900 and get a g35-900 though
What happening with the jz commodore?
The Z32 is a deeply underrated chassis. I'm really excited to see you lads dig into that unit.
Z32? That is the second generation 300ZX chassis you are referencing there.
@@SimplySteel Yea, at the end of the episode, where they were hinting that it has 'Lamborghini parts'. The Diablo used headlights from the Z32.
Maybe if it had an RB it would have been more popular.
@@DriftNick RB > VG, all day long my dude.
That is one great looking car! 😮
I remember some of the milenium can't believe it was 23 years ago
@14:21 where do you source those crimps from to join multiple wires? Been looking for some with no luck..
Not a jzx, but wouldn't say no. Wicked car!
sweet car, golden era nissan
Everybody loves a c33 ❤
I’ve had several compliments on my Allied Performance Projects - V2 Navy T-Shirt. I plan to order some more when finances permit it! You guys have a lot of SKU’s of shirt I’m sure you’re eager to get rid of some stock.
That thing is slick AF ❤️
Gorgeous! 😍
like the body shape almost VL like
Whhhhhatttt abooout kevinnnn!!!
Woody, stand still for god sake…😂😂
Love the vids fellas.
What a sweet ride!
you guys charge extra for wiring? Looks painful!
Yannys are possibly the best 90s nissan imo. Unique and just as good as an s13 or r32
Well played on the name game!!
Great rig looks like a cresseda👍👍🇦🇺
Love a hot Nissan Yanny.
I had one of these with a a31 cefiro front
The filming seems different for this. Great episode.
Im hoping someday my wiring will be close as clean and tidy as Al does it
Sweet ride!!
forever regret selling my 89 medallist for 2k 12 years ago. beauty of a car
I miss my C33, this just made it 10x worse. What a beauty
Oh man that is mouth watering 😛 very beautiful 😊
Was going to buy some merch this month, so the extra shirt deal is very well timed! Is there a code to use, or is it just a case of buying 2 and you guys gift a third?
What an epic Laurel!
That look's Mad.
Best car yet
Tight C1nts! JK.....How about a bit of red heat shrink on the positive lead. Wasnt as bad when I saw the body earthed lead but still..... Keep up the good work boys
More interested in the 300ZX on the lift on the background. 🙂
Lemon squash powered wiring loom.
Obviously subjective, but that's a great colour!
Was this platform here in Canada called a Maximum?
Sick cressida. Fitment is on point good lordy! ;) 😅
do a b58 swapped mini next
Clutch Fan for the win.
So in the U.S. theres an infinity q45 with a....i wanna say 4.5 or 4.4 liter v8 originally im honestly not sure. I owned one in 2014. I dropped a heads/cam L33 with a tremec tko transmission and a ford 8.8 rear diff. V.S. wheels, kw coilovers, r35 front brakes I bought for $1100 on ebay, holley management bone stock interior other than the shifter, working a/c, and it was black. The shit I used to do in that big ass car was absolutely absurd. Like 110mph entries with no handbrake. Just pitched the big ol girl in and held it on the limiter in 3rd. She got it done. But I unfortunately tore the rear subframe bolts from the chassis. As I was like 23 years old I didn't give a shit and sold it.
That's just beautiful
Are they new Kelford cams, or have they been used and broken in properly before? Only asking as I've just done a friend's car, untested, and initial startup was all about the break-in process for the cams, yet I've never seen that process followed on this channel. Just concerned a lobe may get wiped off the cam if it isn't broken in properly.
more land cruiser content please. its been your channel's best performing episode yet!
Question for Al. Do you giggle inside when you say bung?
What good is the JZ power if the axles are made of angel hair pasta? That's like the gym bros who skip leg day. Otherwise, it's clean af and the wiring looks mint, but let's not half-ass a relatively cheap part.
this is such a cool build
