@@No_soup_for_youi disagree. Woody aint gonna let us down. Turbo yoda will be missed alot. But our man Woody will rise to the occasion, thats his only option and il be there for it.

All fkn awesome things must come to an end. I will be re running all Allan episodes as a tribute because he’s a living legend and there is gold in every episode. Please get bored eventually Al and come back even stronger. I know you need a rest bro but we got you.
@@No_soup_for_you You should probably give Woody a chance instead of being a hater. If everyone acts like you then there will be no channel for Al to come back to.
you're dreaming if you think rigos doesn't know what he's doing. it's going to be different, but guarantee it's gonna be good. wondering if he gets his own sidekick
Fun fact, Lukey exhausts were a family business that grew out of a garage on Phillip island. I was lucky enough to be good friends with one of their partners for a long time. Rest In Paradise Rod Patton aka the Volvo hoarder 🙏👌
Al's been noticeably joyful during this build. Maybe it's because a weight has been lifted and he's looking forward to his next chapter? Maybe it's because putting the correct engine into this Nissan is sick and clearly the right thing to do? Maybe it's Maybelline? In any case, it's an honour and a privilege to watch content like this and Al will be sorely missed.
It'll be sad to see you go Al, its crazy to see how your mind works when fabricating things here and there. I forget which car it was, but when you updated a car you guys had previously done and see how "young Al's" mind worked, was a good one. Constantly learning and improving.
Al, the Algorithm dropped you into my que about the time you "made over" a Toyota V12 in a Land Rover; from that to this RBZ, they have always been outstainding- this one is a nice post card to us- thank you both, Al, Woody.
I wasn't having a good day and a session watching Al do this thing just smooths that right out. Thanks. We're going to miss you, but you've taught us a lot and my project is driveable, so I think il will be okay.
Building an exhaust is like tuning a Dijeridoo. I totally want a stainless steel Didj. Killer project, nice progress. And as always, good tips from an old master.
One of those cars that I always wanted in my teens, when Sylvia’s and 180sx’s were cheap and abundant and all the Julio’s drove them thinking they were starring in Fast and the Furious 😂 Loving the build 👌
Not sure if you boys will read this but I had similar issues with my hypertune intake manifold hitting my original clutch master in my R34 with a 26/30 and I could not get it engineered. ended up going with a z34 / 370Z master cylinder as it had enough room due to the remote fluid reservoir and passed with flying colours. Did have to use a few weird fittings but it ended up working just fine. Might possibly be something to consider instead of putting a master on the inside of the firewall
@@theskidfactory it looks like the exact same issues between both cars, so hopefully the z34 master ends up giving the you the same solution. As it was a p.i.t.a to figure out what master to use and I thought instead of using R chassis parts Z chassis parts would work too being these are all parts bin cars really
The Z32 Nissan wishes they'd made. I get that the VG was new and shiny at the time, but the RB20 had existed for years already, and the RB26 was hot off the presses for the R32 GT-R so they COULD have stuck that in there too. Thanks for showing us how it's meant to be done :)
Was never interested in the 300zx but this is probably my favourite build so far. Thanks for all the great content over the years guys. I appreciate it.
@23:05, oil cooler have in and out, then the cooler cavity itself. air rises, it runs through lines with fluids until it reaches an area it can float up to the highest locaton within that system. here, once oil and air travels throgh the lines into that cooler. the air rises tothe highest location inside that system, which inthis case is the top side of that oil cooler, and it will get stuck in there, more and more air will accumilate inside the cooler, reducing the amount of surface area the oil has in order to come in contact withthe cooling fins of the oil cooller. this reduces the efficiency of the cooler. anytime you mount an oil cooler with an in and out on the same side of the cooler. it can NVEVER be mounted with both nipples facings the ground. as there is no bleeder valve on the (now top side) of the cooler, to bleed out said trapped air, the only way to moun the cooler to prevent this cavitation of air, is to mount the cooler so that the feed line attaches to the nipple at bootom of cooler and the outlet hose connects o nipple at top of cooler so oil full of air enter bottom, fedds through cooler till the top and all air leaves the cooler with the loins out the top of cooler as now there is no place for air to rise and get trapped into.
I'd put that coolant expansion tank on the firewall so it is at the highest point and all air bubbles will easily accumulate there. Ford Australia cars had this setup.
Seeing how crowded that exhaust side is made me appreciate and also amaze me how a guy here in Sweden RB26 converted his LHD 300ZX 16 or 17 years ago.. He did however do a singleturbo, but theres rly no other option as the steering column and boosters has to have some space. But still :o
I vote to plumb the wastegates back into the exhaust to keep that clean crisp 90s/early 2000s RB sound. It tends to sound weird with screamer pipes because it breaks up the exhaust note so much and quite annoying when youre tryna just relax and cruise around town.
This is so cool man. Also, I think you spotted me broken down on the side of the Bruce highway when you were out cruising in the Barra Wagon last week. I was the muppet trying to figure out why my 1UZ swapped Cressida was overheating 😂 Anyway, can't wait to see how you go with the wiring!
This is SUCH a cool project!!! My buddy had one of these in highschool and I always thought it was a really clean looking car. You're really giving it the proper treatment. Beautiful workmanship!!!!
bro turbos can definitely catch things on fire. my first s13 ka24det build had a top mount turbo and i didnt have a heat shield to the brake master cylinder. one long highway trip later and i was pulling over with smoke under the engine bay. literally melted the BMC canister into a pile of pudding and i had a brake fluid fire on the side of the road. thankfully i kept a 4L jug of water in the trunk for emergencies and was able to wash the flaming fluid out of the engine bay and onto the road where it continued to burn for the next 10 minutes but thankfully it took the fire away from the car and onto the roadway! had to build a big heat shield to go between the turbo and BMC and hasnt been an issue since. it definitely CAN happen!
Generally speaking you want to remove the tape off the intake manifold before mounting the intake. I know it's probably for mocking up but please don't forget
As someone who has just moved to engine bay on my project, it nakes watching videos like this extremely hard. Like, theres $10,000 in that engine bay NOT INCLUDING THE ENGINE.

Al is not just building cars, they are like art pieces, beautiful, nice sounding, fast pieces of art. I'd love a 300zx with a RB.
👍👍
Am really going miss Al on this channel. Absolutely maestro with everything automotive and definitely a champion for mental health. #legend

Big shoes to fill Woody, love your work Al.
Great show gents 👍
So good to see the guru again
Love watching Al TIG up aluminium like it ain’t no thang 👌
Watching Al working on this Z is like watching Albert Einstein figuring out relativity. Just a Genius at work here.👍
Al's been noticeably joyful during this build.
Maybe it's because a weight has been lifted and he's looking forward to his next chapter?
Maybe it's because putting the correct engine into this Nissan is sick and clearly the right thing to do?
Maybe it's Maybelline?

What a send off this is turning out to be. Cannot wait to see the finished product. World class.
Al you legend. Best TSF content in a while so savouring the seconds while you're still here m8. Cheers 👌

I want to know if Mrs Yoda watched to the end, and if so, how is Mr Yoda's recovery going?😂
“Sound like two charades having an argument down the motorway” 🤣
RB32 stroker would have been the icing on the cake.
love the welding safety squint
I cannot unsee those diablo headlights
Oh man, I'm gonna Turbo Yoda doing his this! It's the very reason I got hooked on the Skid Factory!
I almost mistook you for a welder in those spiffy new tig gloves Al. Top shelf work as per usual mate.
Gonna miss ya big AL.
Loving this build, gonna miss you Al.

This episode reminds me of Gary's twin turbo VF10 1JZ soarer with twin exhausts to the back. Sounded awful until he put a balance pipe in.😊
Nothing like having some jewelry in the engine bay.
You’re a bloody mastermind al, love your work 👌
On ya mate. Can't wait to see the finished product. loved selling them when they were the thing. The twin turbo version was a hoot to drive.
Great to see Lukey still around.. big back in my car days in the 80’s
Soo much quality work 👏 looks awesome - can't wait for the shed skid Al you know it's gotta be HUGE
That exhaust system is a work of art
Love how it’s gone from ‘wife’s car’ to ‘wife might be driving it’. She better be careful, those boys of yours’ll be dying to get into this.
Incredible work as always Al, well done! Engine bay looks KILLER!
I would call the episode plumbing the legend 32. :)

I just ordered a HFM Z34 master yesterday. Great minds..

As it was a p.i.t.a to figure out what master to use and I thought instead of using R chassis parts Z chassis parts would work too being these are all parts bin cars really
Redline Supercool with water wetter at a 60/40 dilution ratio is what I used in my RB26 and it made about a 10 degree difference in coolant temps.
Excellent tip.
The project is coming along very nicely!
The Z32 Nissan wishes they'd made.
I get that the VG was new and shiny at the time, but the RB20 had existed for years already, and the RB26 was hot off the presses for the R32 GT-R so they COULD have stuck that in there too.

VG is slightly older than the RB...
Turbo Yoda “An extra half inch stroke really does make a difference!”
"Just a charade...or two"
All of that complexity in return for higher energy density of liquid fuel. Wow!
As usual, your work is impeccable.
Was never interested in the 300zx but this is probably my favourite build so far. Thanks for all the great content over the years guys. I appreciate it.
More great work from Al the Guru.
This build is awesome fellas. 👍
Not All Twins Play Nice. Here's to 2024 and the Shenanigans that endure ❤❤
Really liked this one AL.
Keep it coming! 👍
That zorst is a work of art 👌
Outstanding episode, will be sad to see less of Al.... ;~(
Woody, I couldn't concentrate on what Al was saying in the first bit. I was focused on that sweet bass groove! Good stuff :)
Exhausting content, but you are right about the resonance frequency’s.
Love the way you go about business. Simple and quality for reliability. Good onya'.
Beautiful job as always . Love watching the artist.
Cool project. Always loved the 300zx. Best regard from Ireland lads.

How bloody good do they sound!
Go the wookie!

Looking sick al going to be a unique build with the twins hopefully it's super responsive and sounds great
Sick production with the welding sounds 🤙

A particularly good episode guys.
Thank you.
This is so cool man. Also, I think you spotted me broken down on the side of the Bruce highway when you were out cruising in the Barra Wagon last week. I was the muppet trying to figure out why my 1UZ swapped Cressida was overheating 😂
Anyway, can't wait to see how you go with the wiring!
Can't wait to see this car boogie 🙌
15:01 I feel like a VR6 or VR5 build needs to happen before Al finishes up on the channel this year #VRTHEWORLD
He is finishing with this build and is the only one he's doing.
I'd love to put a vr5 out of a Bora into a Mk3 CL.
Turbo Yoda aka Yodatsubo is such a baller. Dude even splashed out on a set of McLaren F1 headlights for his 300zx. Who does that?!?
never retire al
Love how your giving the z32 some love, such a disrespected car. It was more expensive than the r32gtr at the time, it was nissans flagship
This is SUCH a cool project!!! My buddy had one of these in highschool and I always thought it was a really clean looking car. You're really giving it the proper treatment. Beautiful workmanship!!!!
Happy new year 🎉

Would love to see Al fit an VR6. 🙌🏻
Hello from Germany. Good Job. 👍🏼💪🏼
SuperDragger and Megaphone Dunk exhausts...man after my own heart ❤️
202 with true twin systems sound tough as.

Looking very nice looking forward to see it being finished🙂
Incredible work as always 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Missed you Al!

Great work Al Merry Christmas and Happy New year to you and Woody and your family's
Barra sounds made with a twin 4 inch exhaust ❤
Great viewing! Great Content! Great Build! Very Good! Goodonya’s ! 🤙🤙🐝🍄🐉🇦🇺🍺
Al they should've been RB from factory, they would've been a lot more popular. Beautiful build mate & keen to see the end result
HA yep that engine bay looks pretty stealth cheers.
Happy new year lads.
Looking forward to all the awesome content this year 🤙
Gonna miss Al...
Such stunning work!
I tip my hat to you!
🇦🇺🤜🏼🤛🏼😎🍀☮️
Coming together nicely lads 👍
Good times, nicely done 👍
Very cool build! Top notch manufacturing also!
yo woody got a playlist for your background music, it's choice as.
Also loving this build! Insanely tidy by the yoda himself
Al will be around for a while yet 😂
