What Happened to My 240SX Coupe Drift Car

The Gift of a Lifetime: A New Chapter for the Blue 240SX

As I sit here writing this update, I am filled with gratitude and excitement. The past year and a half has been an incredible journey with my best friend Allan and his team at Mighty Car Mods. They have worked tirelessly on my beloved blue 240SX, pushing me to be better and helping me learn the ins and outs of car building. But as much as I appreciate their hard work and dedication, I feel it's time to give back.

Recently, I made the decision to gift my 1JZ motor and transmission to Allan and his team as a token of appreciation for everything they've done for me. This was not an easy decision, but I knew that it was the right one. The 1J has been a loyal companion in my car-building journey, but over time, its performance had begun to degrade. Instead of pouring more money into the motor, I decided to take a different approach. I wanted to give Allan and his team something truly special, something that would allow them to create an even more incredible car.

And so, I handed over the keys to my 1JZ-powered blue 240SX, complete with a turbocharger that had been swapped out for one from a friend's 1JZ-powered car. This was a unique opportunity for me to show my appreciation in a tangible way and to give Allan and his team the chance to create something truly special. But I'm not revealing too much just yet – let's just say that the new motor goes back to my roots, and it will require some significant modifications to make it work.

As part of this project, we're also going to be changing the body of the car. Yes, you heard that right – we're going to give the blue 240SX a fresh new look! Street Faction is supplying us with bash bars for the car, and we can't wait to see the finished product. But that's not all – we're also going to be swapping out the subframes, which will require some significant work.

One of the most exciting aspects of this project is the fact that I'll be taking my time to get it right. As you may know, I've built cars online in the past, and it's a process that can be incredibly pressured. But this time around, I want to do things differently. Instead of releasing episodes one by one, I'm going to record everything all at once and then release the entire video series in one go. This will allow me to take my time with each step of the project, ensuring that every detail is perfect.

But what's even more exciting is that we'll be filming this entire drift car series from start to finish. Yes, you heard that right – we're going to be documenting the entire process, from the planning stages to the final product. We'll be using a similar format to Mighty Car Mods, which has proven to be incredibly popular with their audience. And I'm not just talking about the end result – we'll also be sharing behind-the-scenes footage, showcasing every spinout, mistake, and misstep along the way.

I know some of you may be disappointed that I haven't been working on the blue 240SX as much as you'd like, but I want to assure you that it's all part of a larger plan. This project is going to be incredible, and I'm not just talking about the car itself – I'm talking about the journey we'll be taking together as a community. We're going to have so much fun along the way, from attending drift events to sharing our knowledge and expertise with each other.

And that's the thing – this project is not just about the car; it's about the people who will be a part of it. I want to take my subscribers on this journey with me, sharing every step of the way. We'll be learning together, growing together, and pushing ourselves to new heights. And at the end of the day, that's what it's all about – the love of cars, the passion of the community, and the joy of creation.

So, I want to thank each and every one of you for your patience and understanding. It means a lot to me, and I'm honored to have such an amazing community behind me. And as we embark on this new chapter in the blue 240SX's journey, I couldn't be more excited to see what the future holds. Stay tuned, folks – it's going to be a wild ride!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enoh 240SX Coupe if only people knew what is up you guys D here once again for another video and today we're just going to have a little talk between you you and me so basically a lot of people have been asking about the 240SX Coupe what's going on with it why haven't you drifted it yet why is you know nothing happening with it well a lot of things in my life have come up one is that I wanted to finish up my blue CH 4sx and I had to have the budget to do that and I also need to replace the clutch in that because that clutch that was already in it was already dying so in order to prepare that for a car review I need to put a better clutch in it next is this car was an absolute nightmare to get registered if you guys remember I had to type it on the VIN number on my title by one letter if you guys did not see that episode I explained the entire thing and how the DMV in Georgia wouldn't register it so I had to send it back to Tennessee to the original owner who was cool enough to send it back and get all that sorted out it was like a 4mon process but so let's f forward to now it has a 1JZ in it currently right now but the 1JZ broke already so I had to make a decision do I fix the 1JZ or do I motor swap it and Allen if you guys don't know is the main Mastermind behind my blue 240SX Allen and the team here at evolve tuning worked so hard to finish my bluet 240SX by import Alliance they worked around 29 hours straight I went down to import Alliance in the Mustang to go help out with that and start filming it while they said they were going to keep working on the car and try and make it you know I said guys you don't need to do that it's okay but they were so dedicated they got the car done that motor had never been turned over before turned on the key and they drove its import Alliance so Allan recently just got a drift missile it's a purple s13 hatch and he was talking to me about how he wants to drift but he doesn't have a lot of budget for it and so on and so forth and Allan works so hard on my blue 240SX that I am gifting my 1JZ motor and my trans out of my blue 240 to Allen for all the things he's done for me the past year and a half he's done such an amazing job and the Turbo is actually out of this 1j right now because a friend of mine's car with a one J's turbo went out and since I was not using this car at the time I gave him that turbo as well now I'm not saying worship me for giving away parts that's not what it's about I'm saying that's why I haven't driven the car lately and I'm going to motor swap it so the entire car is going to get completely transformed but here's the catch the blue 240SX I learned a lot from and with that build I learned that you can add a lot of pressure to myself or a team by building a car online and I was like why don't I do this project differently why don't I approach this completely different I come up with a game plan I come up with this huge plan of list of things to do to the car I record all the episodes all at once once that is completed and once that is all completed I release the entire video series all at once so each day so instead of people asking where's the car why isn't it done yet you know so on and so forth I don't mind you guys asking that stuff I really don't but the car is going to be a lot better if we take our time with it and make something incredible I'm going to film this entire drift car series off the Channel first very much so like Mighty Car Mods when they do their project cars and I'm sure you guys know their format so we're going to do that format on this car and I know a lot of you are bummed that I haven't done a lot with this car yet but first Allen is one of my best friends in Georgia he took me in and I believe that Allen deserves this motor set as much as anybody 1j has medable things wrong with it but instead of putting more money into the 1j I decided I'm going to do something much more unorthodox and that's why it's going to take some time I'm not going to reveal the motor yet I will give you a hint though that let's just say it goes back to my roots so it's going to be a completely different project it's going to have to have new subframes so on and so forth we're also going to change the body of the car we're going to do all these things for it Street faction is actually supplying bash bars for the car and guys I'm going to be a complete amateur drifting I've never actually drifted at an event and so you're going to literally watch me learn after this car is done when it's all prepped and ready to go and I'm going to tell you something that not a lot of other people will I'm going to show you every time I spin out I'm going to show you every time I make a mistake I'm going to show you every single time that I go wrong I'm going to show you that everybody starts somewhere and that is why I'm going to take my time with this project because it means a lot to me I'm very passionate about this project behind the scenes and I'm so so excited and I'm sure you guys are too I don't want you guys to forget about the car but just kind of take it out of your mind and realize that that dude in blue is business as usual I'm going to go back I'm doing car reviews I'm doing the Vlogs I'm doing all those things business as usual and then later down the road you're going to get a hell of a surprise I promise it's going to be worth it and it's going to be one hell of a ride and I cannot wait don't worry I my channel is not just going to be a drifting Channel still gonna be everything but we're gonna add that in once this is completed and we're gonna have so much fun together guys I'm G to try to go to drift events with you guys who watch the channel and I would love for
