These videos are always so wholesome and educational. Kyle makes connections with the best people. I've followed his builds from the beginning and I'm always excited to see a new upload. Well done Kyle.
That is the sort of cool sponsors! It's a lot nicer to see local companies reaching out to you and helping out in person, than all that Dollar Shave Club, Skillshare crap and others alike who reach to all sorts of random TH-camrs not even related with their business.
I know!! I'll admit that I have done those "other" sponsored integrations in the past, but doing things like this is soooo much more natural and it actually HELPS us vs just selling out an ad spot, it makes it so much more worthwhile at the end of the day.
As a certified welder myself, I can tell you Jon is an amazing welder. I've always struggled with TIG welding because it's super difficult to master the technique, but and he clearly has mastered it.
This is the Video I had been waiting for a long time. I can't thank you enough for your content and direction that your taking with the 240sx. I Really appreciate all you had given us man. Thanks you so much Kyle. From StabTheDabb.
@@saabkyle04 hes been keeping me posted everywhere ig text message TH-cam I'm well in the loop with your build and I haven't even seen it in person lmao
The quality of this project is just from a another level. I love some other TH-camrs as well, but most of them just seem to want to make good content and not really focus that much on the quality of the work and to the attention of detail. However you do the both really well.
It's always sad to see the end of your vids. I love watching these types of vids. Cannot wait for the finished product and cannot wait for you to one day be able to drive it!
This dude is an artist Kyle and your car step by step is becoming a masterpiece!!Respect for your work and for the thing that you share it with us! Can't wait for the project hit the road and take the satisfaction of your feelings with your Garrett turbo boost!! Going to follow you in Instagram right now! Your fanatic follower from Greece!!!
@@saabkyle04 I think that the most tricky part was done from Jon and the exhaust is going to certify his very good work!Well done Kyle,waiting for the next 240sx upload!Take care and goodnight from Greece!
I would strongly recommend welding gussets into the upper intercooler mounts, and the lower ones too if they're made of right-angle steel like the upper ones. With the right-angle steel you can get flex where it is bent into the right-angle which will cause vertical vibration in your application and that could cause the mountings on the intercooler and/or the welds on the charge pipes to fracture. Some people might say it's not necessary, but I would say that that's how the brackets would be built if they were being used on a race car to ensure reliability so it certainly would be worth it to ensure the reliability of your Nissan and to prevent premature failure of what is almost certainly and expensive intercooler, as well as potential turbo and engine damage if foreign bodies get ingested...
I have a clip of me standing on top on the intercooler after we installed it, it was welded at 140 amps and full penetration it isn't going anywhere 💪🏽
6:00 I bought one of those Ryobi ONE+ drills and I must say they are so great. The battery is smaller and lighter than the old NiCd and also lasts what seems like forever longer between charges as well. Unfortunately my Ryobi kit was stolen one day and I replaced it with the new Craftsman drill that comes with the C3 19.2v lithium batteries. In principle, it is the same as what I had, but it seems to me like the C3 batteries are a little longer life than the ONE+ batteries.
Hey Kyle I got an idea the for oil to the turbo situation. Put on an external oil cooler just like the Jimmy had but use teflon lined braided steel AN lines instead of rubber. But run the pressure line from the engine through the turbo so the hot oil goes to the oil cooler and the return line has cool oil going back to the engine so the oil lasts longer.
Great content mate, love the attention to detail. I just took receipt of my running RB25(DE) S13 which i'm pretty pumped to get into after watching this :)
@@saabkyle04 alot of people who repaint their bays the paint won't lose it's Gloss look. Adam LZ's 240 bay had been repainted last year and it's still shinny to this day.
THIS should have been the THING back in the day, when we surely deserved much better than Pimp my Ride! Jay-Z is somewhere with creeps when Kyle is on air.
Saabkyle04 omg you replied! I can’t wait for the car to be done too! I’m extremely impressed with how thoroughly everything is being done, and it’s really awesome to see where it started and where it is now!
Hey! Unfortunately I don't have an avenue to film Toyota products at the time being. When I dive back into filming more reviews I'll see if one can be sourced somehow. Thanks!
Have you considered a power steering cooler and oil cooler? I'm also building a type x hatch and I'm currently gathering parts for a power steering cooler system
I have 2 questions: How much HP your engine will give at how much psi? I have a J line model... just wondering, because I can't fit any bigger intercooler. I see that you went from 3" to 2.5" THANK YOU
Those welds are unbelievably good.
Dude, Jon knocked it out of the park, they're spectacular in person!
Ultra tig skills!

Thanks a lot Alex! We're only just beginning too!
my only experience with welding is from TH-cam videos but those are definitely some of the prettiest welds I've seen
Now this is wat I call a RestoMod.
Thank god todays the first clear day around charlotte. Great to see the journey continue!
Thank you Edward! That's the truth!

Aww man, I appreciate that! Thank you for supporting the build with all of your comments and suggestions!
@@saabkyle04 your very welcome man.
I just binge watched all of these 240 videos starting with the first one in 2016 and its so awesome to see it come this far!
This guy is a welding genius! That’s proof of what long time practice will do
Wow those welds are damn near godly.
I knowwww, I was mesmerized!
I found the series and I just can't break away from watching. Love the stuff, it enabled me to see the whole turbo system, greetings.
He looks like Jason from engeneering explained but with a beard.
I was thinking he had an uncanny resemblance to Charles "The Humble Mechanic" without as long of a beard haha. They even talk the same I think! 😂
Less annoying too
John is a great guy does amazing work
Yeah he is/does!!

Kyle the way you hold your self and edit these videos is like This Old House and I love it haha
I am ashamed that I never watched TOH, but I get where you're coming from haha, thanks pal!
That front set up looks cool, (sorry for the bad pun), but great RestoMod none the less. ;)
Hahaha thanks dude!
Fantastic job Kyle, this ride is coming together for sure!
Can't wait to see the finished product... Looking good my friend!
I've never clicked on a video faster in my life.
Thanks so much!
I'm probably the 1st to watch this amazing video.
The cleanest video I've watched this week.
Thank you so much!

What an awesome fab job, your buddy Jon is an artist indeed.
I can't wait for him to come back down. We're shooting for the end of this month. We have a handful of cool ideas for the car!
Holy crap, that dude can weld! Really nice work - that car is gonna be SICK when its done!
Jon is amazing!! I'm dying to hear it run, trying to go as fast reasonably possible haha.
@@saabkyle04 Don't rush it!! But I know what you mean - I'm quite itching to hear the thing run myself!! keep up the good work!
That dude is laying some dimes, even when he’s not in his shop
You and Chris fix should race when it's done
Loving these restomod vids man! Tons of inspiration for when I get 5 mins for mine!
Thank you so much!
I didn't notice the rain noise in the background until you mentioned it and now I can't unhear it :
Great work guys 👍. I'm counting down the days till we get a startup video.
Those welds are beautiful
Great watching this car come together.
Thank you for the support!
Looking awesome kyle! Coming together now, gonna be one sweet car to drive.
Beautiful work. I absolutely love seeing these videos
This 240 is gonna be so freaking awesome! 😍
So pumped!!!
Great content and video Kyle! This was really fun to watch you build these tubes custom.
Thanks for watching Jed!!
Men...that beast coming out so well. I'm happy
Me too my friend, me too!
Can't wait to hear this thing roar!
can not wait to see the final results
It's going to be great!
It's insanely hot it Australia atm, the sound of rain on the roof is nice. Great build, and good to see you guys using safety equipment. ;)
Awesome video Kyle!
Thanks Andrew!
Cool and awesome as always!
The charge piping looks awesome and cool!
Those welds got me feeling super jealous
Me too! I want that talent hahaha.
You are my favorite youtuber. I love watching your videos!😁
Thank you for supporting the channel!!

@@jondillard3777 That's fair enough, it's had a good test then...
I find myself enjoying these videos and I'm not sure why as I am not really into car modding.. guess I like it because it is Kyle lol...
Whatever the reason, I really appreciate your support my friend. Have a great day!
Those beads! 🔥🔥
I'm still a ways away from being totally happy with mine, but it's getting there! Slowly LOL
@@saabkyle04 Just keep doing it brother! You'll get better every single time!
Thanks dude!!
It sure was a productive episode. Loved the welding. :)
Can't wait to see and hear this thing run 😍
Dude, me too, this is such a tease haha.
Kyle would make the perfect future host of Motor Week.
This car is going to be glorious.
Yeah it is!
I watch it to the end amazing job
Than you!!!
Nice clean fàbrication piping good job
Yeah man, Jon is awesome!
Kyle the 240sx is looking better than ever
Thanks Alexander, I just want to hear this thing run as soon as possible!
Hey Kyle make sure to take the spark plugs out and crank the motor for about 15 to 20 seconds with oil to build up oil pressure.
For sure 😎👍

Jon is soooo talented!
Work very nice and well done Kyle
Thank you!
I didn't know Kyle could weld!! Pretty cool 😎
I wish I could weld like that LOL, I'll be getting into it soon, lots to learn!
I've been working on my 240sx for 11 months now, and I will say I want to see yours run almost as much as mine lol.
Haha I appreciate that dude! Best of luck with your car!!
Awesome car and build keep up the great content, Its very enjoyable as a car enthusiast.

What an amazing job and brilliant welding. I’m following him on Instagram too. Love the Clarkson sticker on his helmet 😂😎👌🏼
Keep it going Kyle!
You got it!!
COOL Custom Fabricated Charge Piping & Intercooler Mounting: 240SX Restomod Ep.30
Nice work
Super clean man!
I appreciate that Andrew!
Got to get some insulation on the inside of the roof my dude.
I have some, but it's only enough to block out water/moisture. Need to get some more lights before I start throwing up more insulation haha.
Great content mate, love the attention to detail. I just took receipt of my running RB25(DE) S13 which i'm pretty pumped to get into after watching this :)
Good job guys
Thanks Erick!
To bad that you have to take everything out of the bay to repaint it. ,😩
I knowww, that's going to be so much fun (sarcasm!) LOL
@@saabkyle04 it's about time that the bay get a brand new coat of paint. Instead of satin black paint it Gloss Black.
That would look really clean, might be more maintenance to keep it shiny, but I'll google it and see who else has done it.
@@saabkyle04 alot of people who repaint their bays the paint won't lose it's Gloss look. Adam LZ's 240 bay had been repainted last year and it's still shinny to this day.
I suppose you just need to make sure it has the right amount of clear coat
Video Idea: Do an interior detail on the GMC Jimmy by gutting it like the Nissan 240SX
Heyyy love this channel but time for bed i will watch tomorrow Kyle
No worries Jack! 👌😁
Type x front bumper 😍😍
It looks soooo good! Wait till the rest of the OE kit is installed 😊
looking good
Awesome vids brother !
Thanks a lot!!
OMG how good was that man I think I need a mate like that 😎
I'm lucky to have friends with many talents hahaha
Wow!! Really nice!!
Thanks Robert!
Well Kyle's you look so cool in a beard that's called your shop the Apostle's
Great content Kyle! I believe you should wear a welding helmet when using a plasma cutter...
Yeah probably lol, for what it's worth, I wasn't looking directly at it.
That’s a $70/hour welder right there folks
He do Very Nice 👍🏽 welds love the videos
Yeah he does! Thank you!
The welding gun sounds like a hair cut razor
Looks awesome
Thanks Owen!
It’s always raining in your videos!
Dude, seems that way!! I'm so tired of it. This has been the wettest fall/winter we have ever had.
Looks SICK! 👊🏻👌🏻
Thanks pal!
THIS should have been the THING back in the day, when we surely deserved much better than Pimp my Ride!

Dope as hell !
I know right! Jon is one talented dude!
This makes me want to buy another Miata and restomod it 😹 beautiful build Kyle!
Thank you Sean! She's coming together, yet there's so much to still do haha. I'm hoping this beast will be on the road by summer!
Saabkyle04 omg you replied! I can’t wait for the car to be done too! I’m extremely impressed with how thoroughly everything is being done, and it’s really awesome to see where it started and where it is now!

Oh god Heatwrap Heatwrap Heatwrap Heatwrap!
Great video keep it up.
Thanks a lot!
Awesome piece of art
Yeah it is, Jon did a fantastic job!!
Have you considered runway racing? Your 240s gonna be fast. It'd cool to find out how fast.

Are u going to use the fuse box with the new wiring harness or will the harness delete it?
I'm almost certain they're used together
@@saabkyle04 oh. I thought that aftermarket harnesses will delete the fuse box completly.
