RB25 Neo Swapped, Big Single Turbo Nissan Laurel is a Shockingly Quick JDM Sedan

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- We wouldn’t blame most non-JDM heads for passing right by the Nissan Laurel: it’s a car from the peak of the boxy 80s/90s era of Japanese sedans. But to some, it’s the perfect platform to chuck an RB swap into, for some seriously surprised faces (and generous amounts of lols) on the street.

Truly one of the most underrated cars of the era
Yeah, thats why they only cost about 40 grand
Highly agree,but in my country,they're quite popular for drifting and taxi's
So weird seeing Larry drool over a car that are literally taxis in my country. We have some serious drift missile Medallists here too 🇹🇹
Should let those cab drivers know how much their car is worth to the right buyer.
They get enough to buy something else and have some left over, while an enthusiast rescues a classic. Everybody wins. :)
@@enigmaPL this right fucking here
I am a proud drift taxi laurel owner 🇹🇹
@JCM At least you can buy one in germany and drive it to the uk, good luck driving back home from japan
Yeah dawg so true
Dudes like “don’t shift it until 7” 🤣🤣 yes!!
Finally the laurel getting some love
Honestly I’ve never heard about the car in my life till now and I know about a lot of cars lol
Always fun to learn about some new hidden gems
@@tony_5156 it's a cool car to some, in my country it's mainly used as taxi cars but in the past few years people are using them to get into the drift scene, you could think of it as the S-chassis of my country, cheap (kinda), parts are easily available and reliable.
People usually swap RB25 and 1JZs into them and well there's alot of RB20s also
Damn in new Zealand laurel's have been known for years like they are probably one of the most common skid car saddly they cost a fair bit and most of them are fully cooked and auto
literally, i loved it for years, ever since i knew about it
They were one of the last hidden gems we want them out the spot light hahahaha
Im from russia, we love laurel here, awesome platform, has a lot from silvia. Got my self 35 laurel. After US start laurel import, the prices skyrocketed
Russia is full of jdm 4door drift cars like jzx81, jzx90, jzx100, jzx110s, jzs, 4 door skylines, laurels, i just want to buy to so many cars from russia haha i love it
Love seeing Anthony and John, two dudes from my home town, making it on Hoonigan! Finally getting the recognition they deserve
Mmmm ghey....
That yanny plate tho, I love quirks like this.
allll of the little details make for one perfect machine
@@Russell_and_Rosko bro stop hating and do something good for once. how you go about your day to day just spewing and radiating so much damn negativity. insufferable man.
@@henlolneh I assume these people are just going through tough times on their path of life and I wish them some guidance from above. Anyways, the tucked away plate was awesome as well, thanks for reminding me about that one Russell Krue.
@@henlolneh that escalated quickly. all from being accurate about an inaccurate representation. no hate, and life is good, no reason to assume otherwise, projecting is toxic. aren’t we talking about a license plate? or is this about making personal attacks on those who point out silly misrepresentations? the dude said this is my actual plate, then filler, then pulled out his actual plate. there’s nothing to show that this guy isn’t trying really really hard...soo the bro comments are just a reflection on you? i have zero problems, just pointing out the obvious.
@@Russell_and_Rosko that was a very long and defensive response from someone who is living a great life lmao... "projecting". yikes. insufferable human being you are like I said. you weren't hating? so you would say "you are a try hard with a lot of filler" to this car owner's face if you saw him at a meet? Exactly. Please, if you won't say it to someone's face in person, don't type it.
In the Caribbean where I'm from these car are all over love them 🥺
A staple in Trinidad 🇹🇹⚡️⚡️⚡️🏆🏆🏆🏆
S13 interior door handles and hvac vents. I have a neighbor with a laurel. Awesome cars.
15:40 P10 chrome door handles. GORGEOUS car.
I saw Laurel and just clicked. My fav Nissan body after Zs.
John is my hero. So happy he is getting some recognition for his car. Love this dude and his builds
i talked to this dude at fdnj he was super chill and his details are clean easy best laurel ive seen in awhile
FINALLY A LAUREL ON THIS CHANNEL
This car has been my favourite jdm car for a long time
These were heavily used as drift cars where I live and Fanga Dan's old on probably one of the OG one but this is one cool build and love the 3D printing parts not worth paying what is being asked or parts which you can't get as they are so hard to source. This has to be one of the best videos you've done recently Larry
Fanga Dan is king💯
I'm in New Zealand, these cars were everywhere and worth next to nothing . Now since us import laws changed they are so rare to find in that condition. Hell we use to buy a rolling shell with live plates for 500bucks , grab an rb25de for 500 bucks, turbo set up 500bucks good tune an we were away laughing . Now days u looking 45-50k nzd to buy something built and clean. It's insane how much the prices have spiked. I'd love to build another Jdm beast but it's just way outta my price range nowadays. Nice build mate
I have a C33 as well but unfortunately I must sell. It will be missed. I love the way it handles. I hope we reunite.
I love that it's a hardtop (no b-pillar)
When everyone was bonding over having scars from working on their car....
... I felt that.
:)
Beautiful Laurel ♥️♥️ I love his passion and Long Live the Manuals!!! 💪🏾💪🏾
He did an absolutely amazing job with this
Nothings beats the smell of a late 80s-90's Nissan. Smells like home
@H K damn
hey from New Zealand ,C33 Laurals and A31 Cefiros were Taxis in the late 90s here ,Man Iv parted out or destroyed prob 6 laurals and a A31,got a driving mint C33 RB20E auto light met green for $100 nzd as it was sitting under a tree,drove it home ,got non hi cas rear sub frame ,steer rack,ps pump,all front panel lights bonnet ,all the door insides,regs,locks etc ,put unconected hi cas stuff back in it ,got a $90 nzd RB20E,fitted it got it running good,sold for $800,swaped my china 110 cc 4 spd pit bike for a 1989 C33 RB20DE auto club s ,scored a c33 manual RB28 oil burner ,pulled all the manual bits ,weild in handbrake mount,got a cheap RB25DET Neo and smoking tires and snapping axles all day
to the owner you have an amazing c33. To stiffen the car you can use chassis brace and do re-enforce the half B pillar where it connects to the floor. KEEP JDM ALIVE
While he was listing the mods and engine I was getting dizzy of how expensive this clean build is. Love it.
I already was tripping on the car... killer bike... and then the license plate shenanigans Damn I'm truly stoked about the attention to detail
YOOOO!!. Just saw this jewel not long ago in Carlisle PA at the Import show.. Sweet Ass Ride.. Love it
This should’ve been the “Maxima” and the Maxima should’ve been the Altima for the USA
I’m watching from my garage working on my 92 Honda sedan. Always working on it when not parenting etc etc etc. so good. 🤘🔥😎🔥🤘
Yooooo the Boss coffee in the wood grain cupholder, FLEX ON EM 💪🤣
I Love the fact that he wants him to go.. Thts someone sharing the love and passion.. A spitting image of when I tell my brother to ride something I built to go fast... sorry ranting..
dude caught a moment in time
"Huh" said Larry, What an awesome ride, 🤣👍👍
been around those roads a lot in NJ haha
bring back the 4 door hardtops with no b pillars!
Hardtops are very weak when it comes to crash safety
"It's an amazing machine."
Loving these long-form vids with Larry. Keep it up guys!
after this video
this is my dream car
i mean this one specifically
Laurels and A31 Cefiros are wayyy too underrated
never new i needed this. i need this. this guy is a genius..
This is the most popular gift car in the career especially in Trinidad and Tobago. It's a C33 and C35 are becoming popular.
Track bikes and cars are a perfect combo.
They are very popular in my island for all classes drifting drags etc mainly being the c33 club s
Trinidad way you 🇹🇹💯
Right here
Anyone from Aus/NZ? RB Laurels and Cefi's are still everywhere lol
Give this guy an apron and he'll basically be Tito from Rocket Power
Those exhaust tips put a smile on my face.
Larry i real enjoy see the c33 laurel on the channel its real fun to drive keep up the good work
Hitting 7k RPM on a cold engine. Gotta love it.
Heart exhaust tips FTW.
You know your're JDM when you have BOSS coffee in the VIP cupholder.
Next Larry, find us a Y33 chassis: the Cima or Cedric or Infiniti Q45.
Shop I work at has a Nissan president sovereign. Sick b*tch stock everything besides being slammed.
Saw this dude at fd at E town, badass fucking build
Now for him to find a a31 cifero
sweet track bike dude
Yea John knew you’d make it to this
Never knew I needed something so bad
Buying me one at the end of the month can't wait
That u-turn on the only turn in NJ. Wow .
Laurels and a31 Cefiro they goated
Check out Trinidad and Tobago. You'd see alot of these Laurels with some serious power. Finally some love on these iconic cars. NISSAN LAUREL C33.
love this vid! 2(thumbs up)!! Nice build dude! watched 3 times (back to back to back)!!!
Brilliantly executed👌.
This guy gotta be my homie cause he got the track bike too
This is a wicked build I love it.
There's never enough hours in a day Hahahaha you've just got to keep at it till your satisfied
Bruh this thing is literally perfect
the owner seems so chill
Wow, what a beautiful example of a C33
All the details man, the details......
I love the fact Larry listens for the fuel pump. 🤣
Sick car😨😨
Definitely dope 👌
Nice video, sick car. Love my C33!
2:29 OEM+
Jesus Larry you've never heard a screamer EWG huh? Lol love that sound
90’s sedans go crazy! That’s why I have a x8 Cressida lol didn’t know laurels are 4 lug thoo
The non turbo version was 4 lug but the factory turbo model was 5 lug
X83 gang 🔥🔥
@@Hughjanus720 this is not true, this car was a factory turbo car, all c33 are four lug
Clean build,I love it
About time we see a c33 on here, so hot
No b pillar is so sick, unreal build
Looks like you had a little more chemistry with this Nissan guy than the Alfa guy 😎
Dammit it's clean af
c33 is my dream car yo
Escaping air sound = external wastegate sir 😏
At some point, you need to come to Trinidad & Tobago 🇹🇹
We have a lot of Laurels (C32, C33, C34 and C35) and A31 Cefiros
my buddy has imported a couple Laurels to the US from Japan and dailys one.
oh boy watch these laurel prices sky rocket
That thing is sick!
I honestly would have a Laurel over a Skyline because it rare and super lowkey.
it’s the opposite in my country I own a laurel and they are pretty cheap compared to skylines and the gtr’s are through the roof in prices
@@meatsauce8454 I understand. I grew up in Jamaica and they were all over the place. But to have one in the states with that motor is a street racing dream
This car is❤️
Max speeding rods on heavier cars feel decent ngl
sound like my old jdm familia even tho its not that at all, it sound so jdm
come to trinidad we have plenty
I LOVE bippu dash trays😁
3:55 Ultimate drivers video game POV: ENGAGED
Proper license plate holder 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
We have alot of these in Trinidad and Tobago.
1989 c33 boom!! In Trinidad every 5 that you see 4 got an rb in it
All rbs have some sort of belt squeal
One of my absolutely favorite cars I’ve been following your build from the beginning I love where it’s going and I love you mentioned the scream welding 😄
Did I miss something about it dying out or low idle, why is Larry revvin the shit out of it?
No IACV
