- People think drifting is the most expensive thing on earth, and sometimes it is, but sometimes it isn't. Rudy Martinez @texastiresandparts has a daily driver 2200 g35 drift car that has fun on track, and gets him around town. I just wanted to show you how cheap and fun a drift car can be sometimes. It isn't the fastest thing on earth, but it isn't the slowest, and drifting doesn't have a clock attached to it, so whatever. Drifting is a simple question of does it bring you joy or not, and this car brings Rudy more joy than his big boy JZ S13.

The G sedan is going to be the next 240sx in the drift world. Holding on to my 05 black on black revup sedan forever
Same I'm manual swapping mine
Bad Quality how’d that go
@@MrvTv pretty well since im at 170k miles so far
Revup is the worst VQ... I have one
@@addicted1794 not for me. Mine isnt my daily though.
People talk shit on the VQ and all but my G35 sedan is one of my favorite cars I've used for a drifting. Even with very minimal suspension and alignment it grips so much and feels amazing
Facts it's a skyline mini
@@Leo_XVII Nissan Skyline 350gt
Absolutely agreed. One of the best sleepers on the planet
I like the background music when you guys are drifting. It just make the whole thing look even more fun.
Mario Kart menu vibes
It's so fucking perfect
Been sending mine for 5 years and currently going through an overhaul. I'm very satisfied and never get tired of it.
I have been doing this same grassroots style since 2005. Been good to me. Saved me tons. People make fun of me for having close to stock cars or s13 with stock sr20. But all in all have multiple cars to be versatile.
Looks like I'ma be a g boi. That's the perfect zaddy drift car. Work, groceries, drift weekend. I'ma need one.
💯 friends and the people you meet at the track is the best part of drifting 🔥
I just got a black 2004 manual G35 sedan to build for track use after maintaining my daily auto to 283k miles. Great cars when cared for.
i have an 04 automatic and i think im going to do the same
@@morbidanimal333manual swap is plug and play for these cars.
This whole video is why I purchased my G35 sedan 6-speed months ago.
Watched this video when it first dropped and yesterday I picked up a blk/blk 6mt 04 g35 for 1000 bucks. Has a rod knock but found a 160k running motor for 500 bucks. Car has coils already and all the front suspension and bushings done new rotors and calipers front and rear, camber arms im the rear. Can't wait to get out and slide it around for hopefully under 2500 total investment. Gk tech basic angle kit wheels and tires are all im doing other than the engine swap
I just got my g35 yesterday. Has the same amount of miles. Drives super smooth. Sept the clutch. Slips
Damn POV, for a split second I was anticipating the screen to dim when he was about to put his shades on
I got a g35 coupe rn it’s my baby but I was planing on getting a sedan for a daily and turn my coupe
Into a drift build this video gave me such a huge smile
Haha I love my g35 sedan. Super great from a value standpoint. Somebody tell Rudy I have a spare climate control board he can have at round 1
Oof I need it I've never had it
My first time seeing a video like this in POV BUT THE SECOND HE TOOK OFF MY JAW DROPPED and stayed dropped😭😭
this thing sounds so nice 😮💨
To think how far this thing has come, shows how builds snowball quick
Cool video! I wish I could daily my E30!
Wholesome. This is how the car community should be represented
Those Cerberus is more than $1200 lol but cool car! My favourite G out there is Alex Docken. I need one for sure!
Must be nice... $2,200 G35 drift car. I am like $15k into this damn thing.
Lol
Yo same mine burning my pockets
VQ35DE Engine $700 transmission $700 car $1000, putting parts in $free
@@Strahlendersonnenlicht i crashed into a wall 2 times haha and had to buy all new front end parts 2 times, including angle kit. i did all the work myself.
@@Strahlendersonnenlicht He didnt say he did it all at once. You need to chill. What are you trying to prove here, jesus.
I've got a JDM V35 sedan I manual swapped with all suspension mods, true type bc's, all arms, gktech angle kit, sway bars, poly bushings, r33 gtst brake swap.. It fucking boogies man. Did not think I would like it so much. Used to drift/daily a 13bt FC which I regret selling everyday. I'm getting back to the track very soon and cannot wait! I love the agenda you guys push of budget seat time drift cars, it's all about having fun and getting amongst it!!
How much did the manual swap cost? Any good resources on that swap?
good vibes
I'm 48 just picked up a 06 g35 coupe . let's gooooo baby!!!
Cant wait to get mine out of storage and get my bc coils on
I've been searching for a sub 3k g35 sedan for awhile now, but...that tint is nuts!!!
Copped mine for 2900. DO IT!
You can find them I just copped one for $2,600. He wanted 3200 but it had a lot of miles on it. But it was completely stock and well taken care of. It just needs new bushings and ball joints. It's an X so parts cost a little bit more. About to throw a throttle body spacer and plenum spacer for it. Got new valve covers w/ gaskets and coil packs for only 60 bucks! Going to install CAI there's a perfect spot for the air filter in the driver side bumper. It grips like crazy and I can pull the awd fuse for full RWD fun. It's a great car, I've owned a 95 M3, 90 300zxTT, a 02 Z28 Camaro, and a fully tuned 94 Maxima that I dropped. This G35 is one of the better cars I've had. No where near as fast as the 300zxTT and Z28. But has enough torque to have fun. After the bolt ons I may be pushing around 280hp and torque. It's just a great reliable car for what you pay for it. Plus the VQ is extremely reliable. There's ones that have close to 300k with no issues. So I know it'll last me a few yrs. I'm at 190k right now and it drives great. Engine is strong and no issues other than your basic wear and tear. I have a minor oil leak which I think is the o ring to the oil cooler. Which is common for these engines. I'll be installing an oil catch can too. Even though it's not boosted, due to how the pcv system is designed they are known to expell oil pooling into the lower intake. I hope after I finish doing everything to it, that it'll last another 100k. Highly recommend getting one, just get one from an older person who hasn't modded it and ran it into the ground yet.
THAT tint is sick
God i want this car
😂😂🤟🏽 more videos of the GEM 💎 plz!!
what wheels is he using for the back of the G ?
We had quite a few 250 autos imported to the uk, they fell into the hands of mainly normies because it was a cheap “luxury” car.
They sell for ~£2k (2024). I fully intend on buying one & 3.5 manual swapping it.
It would be a totally unique car on the UK skid scene.
Can you do a torque vs hp drift car video?
I just found an 06 with a 6mt. Getting it this week.
Did u get it?
@@nigerianskills1919 Yes, I'm on my way to put gas in it right now. It's been nothing but a blast so far. Has a couple minor issues, but fun none the less.
Actually ended up getting it 2 days before my 26th birthday.
@@PSWii360onBaSS 1 year later how’s the car holding up?
@@smithsfan425 it's good. Getting a new clutch soon.
More videos like this.
This is awesome to promote these cars! Luke Fink proved these cars can handle the abuse! Across the country twice and raging every event of drift week.
Except for him saying he hated the car half the time and it breaking. Meanwhile the 1j cars had zero issues. 🖒
Ppl have known about these cars LONG before fink came but and don't act like it didn't immediately blow up on top of a ton of other issues he had with it
@@clutchkickpj693 English translation?
@@Mr_jz_12 2 jz engines blew and had a multitude of problems and they had far more problems than me... my only issue on drift week was a minor electrical gremlin that was cause by a aftermarket tune! i youtube so sensationalising my minor breakages is what i do
A lot of it is due to oil negligence, even the washer on the oil drain plug can wear out and cause oil to leak. Galley gaskets are another thing to take care of. If these things are taken care of then the G runs like a champ.
What wheels are on the back? They look sick
I'll be surprised if you find one here in Iowa for less than 5k in decent condition
What tint is that
Finding a 6spd, red sedan with black on black interior is a minimum 8k now smh
The cheaper the better haha
Curious how many miles his engine has? Especially if it can handle a shot of No² being completely stock. I was always under the impression that the stock block and internals can handle anything under 500hp. My friends father had one with an Eaton Supercharger back when these were fairly new cars. It ran fine but had to keep the boost down. I'd just be worried that nos would blow my manifold. I'm going to drive mine until it taps out, then do a motor swap. The sedan and coupe are timeless imo.
He said 230k in the beginningg
MOTHER FUCKIN GOALS! I love this guy.
Just copped a g35 06 hopefully I can have this type of fun with mine lmao
did you end up having fun
XD seeing that g35 slide makes me bummed I have the awd automatic version
jake mar I think you can do something with the transfer case to make it rwd and for transmission maybe a 350 cd009 will work.
Rapidshot for that much he can just buy another lmoa
Wait till it rains and turn traction control off. I can’t drift my g37 but I can powerslide the shit out of it when it’s a little slippery. If it’s slightly wet or there is gravel on the road, it’s can slide pretty well but not for super long
You can drift an auto bruh
I heard there’s a fuse you can pull
bro shaking after that lol
Is the coupe relevant still?
where can i get those front rims
6:25 his hands are shakkinngg hard
does anyone know if he’s still running the stock open diff or if he had any work done to the diff?
He probably welded the diff I am guessing.
Prices have gone up on these but I’m about to pick one up for 3k. I’ve had a few daily driver drift cars but I think the g35 is gonna be the best by far.
Where can I get that tint from
Any suggestions for a new clutch on a g35? Mines in time out rn since I burnt the clutch out
Competition clutch has been great
350 z seat swap that's dope asf
Right when he turned the camera around at 3:23 I thought it was Matt Damon at first.
I think this will be my first car
Fuckin awsome bro
started looking for these and 350z's recently, and can't find shit under $6-7k that's manual.
welded diff or stock lsd?
Welded
eyelids eyelids eyelids
350z seats really bolt in, driver and passenger?
I was wondering the same, before I send it and the don't work lol
What mods do he have
Mod list?
The only thing I don't like about G's is the exhaust that sounds like a dying cow yelling into a megaphone and the mpg for daily driving isn't great. Hell of a drift car though
Mine gets 20mpg and I'm steadily mobbing it. Average 80mph on freeways taking over 100mph every now and then. Mine is also pushing close to 200k. It was getting around 18mpg when I bought it. Have only seafoamed it and an additive to clean the fuel system which did the trick. About to give it a tune up and install new valve covers. There's a small leak which is understandable due to it being 16yrs old. There's also a small leak on the o ring Gasket to the oil cooler which is an easy fix. So I've been putting about a qt of oil every 2 wks. But I've been putting like 400 miles a WK lately. After I fix my leak issue, I'm going to clean the drive train since I'll have the valve covers off. Throw in new plugs and coil packs. I got a plenum spacer and throttle body spacer waiting to install with CAI. So I should get even better gas mileage after that. It's a reliable car and for an older engine it sounds great. I agree on how some of these aftermarket exhaust sound. I like the stock sound personally. If I do anything I'll just delete the cats and run test pipes and keep stock mufflers.
@@nowimhigh i did plugs and coills and always run spereme gas, i get about 25mpg on highway if im crusiing like 70-75
What mods does he have, I'm curious?
Just a 04 de
the only cars like this that you can buy in my country (spain) for 2200 euros are clean ford sierras or rotten bmws e36/e46
Where is the Drift week video announcing the “winner” of all the challenges ?
I hope I can get it done before 2021!!!
@Masters Of Disaster 21? 22!
I wish someone would donate their time to edit for him. I'd have a hard time editing all that in a timely manner too when you've got a shit ton of stuff recorded that happened before and still filming all the new events he puts on. Still worth the wait though!
@@wheeln24-79 he has a media guy?
I didn’t know Matt Damon is in to cars
What is the situation with the differential? Stock or welded?
Welded
cant find manual sedans anywhere :( . see a bunch of stick coupes but i want a sedan. guess i could get a auto and swap it
Auto swap is easy done 2 of them
@a1022man thinking of swapping my 07 g35 sedan, can you let me know how much I’m looking at ?
@@Shakinndbacon like around 30 to 40$ not including the shift nob
Mine is for sale In Dallas
the next viable car at Ebisu and more or less world wide...
And shredder pops up lol
Luke finks old car??

I know why everyone prefers the sedan but coupe is just better looking!
When dude rudy get a g35🤣

@@Mr_jz_12 he has had it well before fink. He is building one for is FD pro2 for this year. With an 2JZ
@@Mr_jz_12 bruh he clearly said where he got it
I'd love to do a k24 swap on a G
Haha why? Put a 4cyl in a 6 cyl car?
@@KiranPatel-fk1pg because he'd rather take 5 years trying to build a "different" car instead of actually driving and getting seat time...
Hoonigan just turbo k swapped a 350z in a week so get it done lol
Kiran Patel because 1 more room for activities. 2 you can slap a cheap turbo on it and make a reliable 300 hp
ClutchkickPJ haha yeah no. I know a place where I can get all the parts for the swap and be done in a month and half
tell me you speed the vid up for a split second @ 4:20 lol
lol
They hating on bro
DUDE FUCKING CAME UP ON THAT CAR 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
for 2200? thats insane
We have guys that regularly get 350z for around a grand in Texas and bring them to events. Texas is the land of cheap cars without rust if you are good at looking!
man fuck Cali shit might as well be movin to Texas
@@LoneStarDrift damn that's cheap! Cheapest 350z you can find over here are around 8k in euro's. Always jealous when you guys call these "cheap beaters" maby I'll import one from the states!
@@quitovanvliet4311 same in new Zealand getting cheaper but still around the 10g mark for one and its probably not going to be mint
@@1jzfc999 luckily e36 are cheap over here you can pick up a decent 323/25/28 for around 3k. They make awesome out of the box drift cars as you all would know but I would like something with a little more power and something JDM
I loved this video until he said he didn't wanna share a hi hp car experience.....
I have this same g if anybody is looking to buy 👀 150k miles healthy engine
Anybody know what tint hes running? Im tryna run some on my shitbox... my ig is @wazzn_me incase you wanna see it🤣🤣
Mario kart
6:25 never heard anyone say something like that in the drift scene. You weird for that
Omm
That window tint is atrocious
240 is better than a g35.....said no one ever
It smell like broke in here 🤭
Is this your first time on this channel? They like to promote the art of real drifting rather than crazy power vehicles that basically drift by themselves
@@codysmith3084 sounds like making excuses to not spend money. 🤔
@@Jlizel You are a jealous idiot. You didn't even watch the video did you?
Oof
If i was rich id still own a G35 sedan.
