- In this episode we sand down and seam weld the engine bay chassis for structural rigidity. Also, a quick update on our channel!
Videos every Friday!

This is like watching the teenager fase of G&G, they look so young
this series makes me miss my block 00 ZX2. glad to see someone build one.
I recently subscribed to your channel and started checking out this Turbo Build Series. You guys got talent. I'm loving this channel. I'm telling you that I'm going to love this series. Keep up the great work guys and Happy New Year!
+Carlos Orozco thanks for the sub, Carlos! We'll do our best not to disappoint!
Holy smokes I just ran into this video... unbelievable how different the videos were and how young we were!!!
Then we died. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOOLOLOLOLOL I love random late night youtube surfing. you find the best content. subscribing because of thatdudeinblue and this playlist.
Stumbled upon your channel a week or so ago, impressed by the quality of your videos as well as the wide variety of content you put out! keep it coming, I'm loving it
Dude you're totally on the same page I am with your build. I plan on seam welding as much as I can!! Pretty crazy that you're actually doing it!
@gears and gasoline. How well did you have to clean for it not to spit and spatter? The sealer didnt cause an issue ?
aaahhh the zx2!!! ive had this car for a year mines black and yea the seems and the zx2 buckle so easily
Bad weld?:grind it Good weld?:grind it Bad marriage?:grind it
Sick build dude. Just got my first zx2 as a second car is an 02 and I payed $40 for it
Just got a zx2 any recommendation on first upgrades
Keman intake and a short shifter. You're welcome.
you should've spot welded it instead of seam welded.. it puts less stress on the sheet metal
Will this be necessary for FWD drag application?
No because you really want the kind of structural rigidity that they're going for in mainly road course tracks or perhaps autocross. For drag though, where there isn't cornering involved, you want to keep your chassis's factory crumble design in case of an accident. You want the front of the car to absorb as much of the impact as possible whereas seam welding reduces it. Seam welding can strengthen the parts that are meant to crumble in a crash. And can make a street car or drag car potentially more dangerous for the driver.
+thatdudeinblue You ready for this?
Throw a new 2.3 st engine in that
+Hevert Pacheco That would make less power than the engine that's going in it ;)
Stay tuned!
yikes! You know there is a reason no one uses a tig welder to stitch weld right? And you should never run a bead for more than an inch without letting it cool completely off before continuing on the exact same section with that thin of sheet metal. No offense guy but i can only imagine how badly you warped that chassis. You were on the right track about smaller amount of weld but that isn't what it means...
a good tig weld will be stronger than mig. but theres really no point in tig welding this if you can mig weld it, mig will be plenty strong. and ya he probably warped it a little
Im not saying tig welds arnt stronger than mig. Im saying there is a time and place for both of these methods and that was not the time to tig, unless he was shooting for a lot of warping.
***** tig welding just sucks for this kind of stuff too
that's not how you pronounce it's name hahahahahahaha, good try though
