Subframe bushing will not work as a engine mount. You wont insolate vibration with that! Subframe bushing use the bolt and sleeve to hold on the frame and the subframe will go around the unit “rubber” , as an engine mount the bolt and sleeve will hard mount to the crossmember....
KALVIN! Thank you for staying true.. longer videos. and building the way you do. so excited to see this project get built by you! stay true to you, dont be uploading these 10min filler vids like other youtubers..
Kalvin, go back to the video you unboxed the engine mounts and watch the part you are reading the directions. It actually says in the directions that you need to modify your cross member AND your oil pan.
Does the JZ sump hang below the bottom edge of the subframe? Or just 'into' the subframe space? Because I'd probably add the metal plate across the bottom for rigidity. better safe than sorry, ten second job :) When Jimmy did the subframe on his SR-Z he did a notch and didn't cut all the way down, I guess the JZ needs more clearance. but yeah. Plate :P
EBay poly motor mount bushings for 300ZX about 90 bucks I've ran them on my 300ZX Twin Turbo over 600 wheel horsepower zero issues they work phenomenal probably better bet than using subframe bushing that's two pieces
@supersayianjim no way you can find a r154 for 600... maybe a knock off from china... the least you can find a cd009 ls 600 anyways which holds up to 800hp well.
am i the only one thinking that using the subframe bushes as engine mounts is a bad idea, you might as well throw away the rubber part and use the sleeve as the rubber wont isolate at all. Get factory engine mounts kalvin!
Idk if it’s only fort the 1jz but on the non turbo 1jz I’m pretty sure the oil pan is on the back instead the front because jimmy Oakes his 1jz has that oil pan so
Yeah would probably look into reinforcing it later on just to be safe, but I'd paint it either black or white or do the LZ thing and paint it the same as whatever your calipers and such will be... :)
Nice episode bro. Hey I have a question. I want to get into welding nothing major just make an exhaust or intercooler piping stuff like that. What would you recommend to get started? Id eventually like to get good enough I can repair the small rust spots on my car. Cheers
Another good video , keep it up there has not been a bad video coming from you :) Plz get those 2JZ mountings , they are designed for the torque and pull the engine will have on them , those mounts you want to use won't work and will break very quickly , you have been doing everything properly so far why stop now with an important part ?
have a question for ya. I'm looking into purchasing my first 240sx. what's the best engine in starting off with? RB20DE or SR20DE?? Also what's the better frames/chassis to be looking for?
Using that mount is the exact same as using a solid mount. There is no benefit from the polyurethane at all since the metal sleeve goes all the way through.
Tune in tomorrow to see the final product 😎🔥🔥🔥
Sorry for the late upload!!
Longer videos
keeshawn Deleon 16 minuets is long enough lol. Kalvin don’t be like MCM and make 45 minute videos lol. They’re OG tho 🙏🏼❤️🔥
Depending on what he’s doing, yeah 15-20ish is pretty straight either way I’m watching the whole thing cause I support the homie 🤟🏾👌🏾
@@marseanf3039 Facts!!!
You need to re-enforce the crossmember so that the motor doesnt rip itself out the car from to much torque. Follow my boy diego @the2jz32
Your crazy to be spraying and welding by those wheels

I was thinking that as well thought it had said u had to.
Yes Kalvin paint the cross member!!

Bought a 2jz but says engine mounts are expensive. C'mon Kalvin, no expenses spared
I think I’m just being resourceful 🤗
supersayianjim that’s cool. But I didn’t want a r154 :)

That’s a lot of work and you had edit this vlog now that’s dedication 🤘🏼
Nice weldeling. I am facing a similiar challenge on a 2RZ swap into a '73 Celica. I will be chopping and weldeling soon...

Top bit of welding there 👍
Thats what i call clean nice job bro and saving bread sweeeeat

This is gonna be a bad ass build.
Man that is snug in there, should be fun seeing how it comes together tomorrow!
That looks like such a fun project.. should be awesome
Keep up the great work Kalvin 🔥🔥
a VG 510 is a first in my book. Never seen anyone or heard of anyone attempting to do that
Great job Kalvin
I'm getting double dose, I watched yesterdays vid this morning!
When the time comes please show us what it takes to run ac in the car
That cross member makes me nervous 🙃
I’ve been waiting on this post alllll daayy! Lol
I'm gonna be prepping my car for paint after the winter. Can you do a video on the steps to take for getting your car ready for paint?
Evan Legault he probably will when its time to get the z32 painted

What thickness of sheet metal did you use and where did you go to get it from?
To thin.
Do you think your gonna need to take the stock hood latch out to fit a condenser and radiator?

You should drop some merch for the build to increase funds for it
Much needed.... I just don't know where to start :\
Nice nice.!!!👍👍
I'm here💚
5:43 what is the spec of that metal sheet ?
Thickness ?
Paint the crossmember Kal👍

WorrhogTv sell it lmao 240’s suck. hypothetically speaking, if you do get one, stay KA. Don’t fucking swap it as a beginner. Noob
Notification squad we lit
Hey Kalvin, my poster still hasn’t came in yet. Did you send all of them out yet?
Wished you put in an RB and make it a pure Nissan
Exelent
Cant you just use the engine bushings from an 240?
what brand engine bushing is it?
I'd do a same color as the Engine bay
Notification gang (: you know I’m on these videos like flys on shit
What's the song @ 6:06?
Paint that dam thing!!! Match it!!!
Lets goooo
Who else forgot the name of the steering rack and also remembered as soon as he did?
I like to get my crossmember done
Stronger than Jimmy oaks! He's got hollow tubes to hold a 1jz? Wym!
Jimmy also did this mod to his 240sx s13

Paint the subframe white
I got so much anxiety you spraying that primer so close to your nice white wheels
Longer videos
You can at least have a light to what you are pointing the camera at.
Dropped your phone bro lol
Paint it the same color
TH-cam!?.... Common now 😡
