Awesome to see you guys feature a JDM mainstay like the SR20 and S13. This series has become the sole automotive related show that I actually care about when new content releases. Keep up the amazing work!
I'm just so happy Hagerty grabbed TA, these videos are awesome! Hot Rod Garage was cool and all, but seeing Tony happy in his own little nook is entertaining on a whole new level.
You and RSCamaro are both kind of right. I know Lucky is a west coast G, but I can't help feeling like he would be right at home here. Tony and Lucky's on cam dynamic was refreshingly original because they both were there for the cars. Not the fame. You could tell they really didn't know each other in the beginning but came to appreciate and respect each other at the end. Like finding that one guy(or girl) at work that has the same sense of humor as yours. Maybe Lucky will show up one day to nab a slice and help out with the Drift 'Cuda or something like that? That would be awesome.
Same thing happened to my friend when he got his sr20 years ago but it was a ORC single disc that the engine importer didn't know when he sold him the motor along with some more s15 goodies
Exactly what I was hoping you would do with the SR. 300hp is the magic zone in an S13 for pretty much anything you want to do with it. Disco Potato vibes 👌🥔 Ok damn that ecu that fits in the factory case is sick too
It sadden me to see the coupe go, I have a love for the coupe. But its a logical choice if you also have a rust free and pre-caged car. Good watch. Have fun with this thing. Hagerty seems to be the only larger company out there that shows the import crowd proper respect, and you guys kind of reminded me of how much I enjoyed doing this stuff in my early 20's, 15 years ago.
Its crazy to see two of my favorite content creators working together. I watched Hot Rod Garage for years, and ive been watching Jimmy since he built his 300zx in his moms garage years ago. I would have never expected to see these two making videos this in a million years. This is amazing!
Feeling it and I like seeing your stuff NOT blow up! Not sure who does the audio editing on this video, but if you're mixing multiple channels of audio all together try running a noise gate on all of your microphone channels. That will prevent the flange effect when somebody is standing near whomever is speaking and is also mic'd. It might take a bit of finagling but it'll cure that all pretty easy!
Love Angelo's torque settings for the turbo bolts. This also is similar to the Ford FE header bolts: 3/8" open ended wrench and go until every knuckle is bruised, bleeding and you can't hold the wrench anymore. And don't worry about those one's on the bottom you can't get to. That's why you added extra goop there, right?
Good to see ya getting back to the roots. Used to be cheap to do a K24DET. Now it is cheaper to do a generic twin turbo 4.6. What a time to be alive...
This is rad. I love that I don't feel like I'm watching something filmed in 2023. It feels more like this was filmed and edited 10-15 years ago and it feels like home.
Living the dream ! SR20 with a nice turbo, tuned standalone and a premade perfect wiring harness, dreams! Rust free shell, aaaamazing! I had a 89 S13 that had the salt into it, frame rails peel away like onion layers, laminated mild recycle steel instead of virgin castings Nissan used, not salt friendly!
Glad to finally see some appreciation for the tried & true mechanical fan! I can't count the number of times I've seen people install an electric fan in an attempt to fix an unrelated overheating problem, and many times they make the situation worse with the electric fan.
The harnesses and EMC/BCM were probably some serious $$$ but having it JUST WORK is almost priceless. THAT CLUTCH. WOW. That's going to be one nice ride.
My favorite configuration of the S13 is that rust bucket, i love the pignose coupe but i cannot blame at all for not wanting to patch everything. I also genuinely think there was not a better person to bring aboard for this deal than Jimmy O. SR wizard for sure.
Big Props to these guys with a ton of auto engineering, fabrication experience......an old guy like me can just sit back wish I understood all of what was involved in this transformation......
I liked seeing the new alternator's bracket holes massaged on the drill press but with a hand held drill 😂 Loving all the content Tony. Hagerty made a good decision to collab with you.
How about showing some numbers when your at the dyno your Camara man hasn't been showing the screen I myself would like to apart of that part also love the content just show all of it. Thank you
Seeing that cloud of black smoke on that first dumbo pull, looks like the magic formula to clean out a 25 year old engine is gumout and 17psi of boost. Lol
As rusty as these cars can get they're still the most successful cars in drift competitions and they just look so good with a nice bodykit, its gonna be 100% worth it in the end
Im not an import guy (though i weirdly still miss the 89 Civic Si I had 20 years ago) but I'm liking this build. cant wait to see you take it on the track.
Love your work Tony, however you may find you are closer to Japan then most of Australia's population. We just drive on the right side of the car and share a timezone
I was justvabout to ask what was going on with thus car after I watched the supercharged firebird. I found it. Lol. I watched you get ut running. Idk Jimmy personally but I think he's one of the most humble guys and he's great with nissans. I love seeing him on other big channels that never have him on. It's like wait ✋️ celebrity?! Lol
Thus makes me feel old. Friend bought a complete front clip from Japan for $2500 in the early 2000's. We took pictures of the setup. Developed them and then did the swap into his coupe.
24:56 slow down Keem a Sabe. mechanical fans are more reliable than electric fans and usually pull more air. But to choose mechanical over electrical because of the "electrical power draw" is, well, upside down. an electric fan might draw a few horsepower (probably less) from load on the alternator. Mechanical fans draw huge power, relatively. your upgraded fan that pulls more air than stock will take even more power. sucking air through a radiator and intercooler will up the load even more robbing more HP from the engine. freeing up horsepower is the primary reason to run an electric fan.
Go the Aussie Turbo 👍 It'll probably make you swear more while driving 😂 That prepped shell was a good move, you saved a TONNE of time and aggravation 👍 Great score with that CRAZY clutch ! WOW
Awesome to see you guys feature a JDM mainstay like the SR20 and S13. This series has become the sole automotive related show that I actually care about when new content releases. Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks for watching! Just doing whatever is fun these days, glad you like it!
What about vice grip garage?
@@fallofthezombies1379 Derek did a good job interviewing Tony.
Thank you for letting me a part of the project!
You are a og Jimmy been watching all of you guys since the old days. And love your new coming friends djnoway and more
Jimmy O has no ceiling. Love to see it.
Thanks for coming out bud! Had a blast, you are a Wizard. See you on track soon!
Your the man jimmy
Been waiting for this one! Gotta watch anything Jimmy O!
I'm just so happy Hagerty grabbed TA, these videos are awesome! Hot Rod Garage was cool and all, but seeing Tony happy in his own little nook is entertaining on a whole new level.
Nah, HRG was much cooler. It had more Lucky and less "east coast" vibe if you know what I'm saying.
@@RSCamaroBlack I hear & respect what you're saying. That said, pretty sure that's why we think this is cooler 😉
You and RSCamaro are both kind of right. I know Lucky is a west coast G, but I can't help feeling like he would be right at home here. Tony and Lucky's on cam dynamic was refreshingly original because they both were there for the cars. Not the fame.

That would be awesome.
I love this show. it's a tribute to all the magic MotorTrend neutered from Hot Rod Garage. Good for Hagerty for making thiis happen.
Well said. MT is more "Mass Market" & too smooth around the edges. Kudos to Hagerty for letting guys be real without pre-written jokes and scripts.
@@branchandfoundry560 It's really sad that MT is living in the past.
know the feeling of popping the gearbox off a random JDM SR and finding a mad clutch. great build
Same thing happened to my friend when he got his sr20 years ago but it was a ORC single disc that the engine importer didn't know when he sold him the motor along with some more s15 goodies
We used to buy the front clips way back when. Sometimes you’d luck out and score nice brakes or a sweet steering wheel
@@drechsla awe fun times
Love the hot rod dustpan fix for the intake piping, so awesome!
Whatever it takes, we are on it!
@@StayTunedTA Gotta do what is needed to keep the shop and the kids fed at school! Keep it up!
@@StayTunedTA that was hilarious
@@StayTunedTA can't believe you even fixed the dustpan too. I would have been "does it work without that piece, then it doesn't need it..."
Not gonna lie, the fixed dustpan gave me a good chuckle. Hahaha
The ending was a tear dropper. Thank you Hagerty & Tony!
Exactly what I was hoping you would do with the SR. 300hp is the magic zone in an S13 for pretty much anything you want to do with it. Disco Potato vibes 👌🥔
Ok damn that ecu that fits in the factory case is sick too
I think this is the move for a fun drift car, thanks for watching!
I love the content - its real, like when you all eat, just like when when everyone else is in the garage working on their project.
LOVE THIS SHOW. I literally hopped on the Hagerty channel and subbed this morning waiting on a new video. Can't believe the timing
Thanks for watching!!!
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels. Honest and informative.
It sadden me to see the coupe go, I have a love for the coupe. But its a logical choice if you also have a rust free and pre-caged car. Good watch. Have fun with this thing.

Jimmy is the Best!!!! He brings happiness to anyone's video. Such a wholesome dude. 1:03
Feeling it and I like seeing your stuff NOT blow up!

12:05 100% tony glad to see comeback. Blood masters still a thing?
Your show is getting a really great vibe. Keep growing! I love the punk!
Good to see ya getting back to the roots. Used to be cheap to do a K24DET. Now it is cheaper to do a generic twin turbo 4.6. What a time to be alive...
New to your channel and love it I know you from motortrend. Love to see how much progress you have gotten done tony
Tony's music choices are frickin mint.
I love that every CZcams car show has The "We need to finish this car today or we're gonna lose the shop." Running gag 😂
Jimmy is the man, been watching his channel for a few years , it’s much like a group of friends getting it done for fun .
Love that they fixed the dust pan after scrapping it 👌🏾
This is rad. I love that I don't feel like I'm watching something filmed in 2023. It feels more like this was filmed and edited 10-15 years ago and it feels like home.
not only is the build something we would’ve done 20 years ago, the video style seems like it too so i hope you don’t change anything about them
Another great episode. Can't wait to see the finished car. Always good to see The O in the House.
I never really got into drifting, until I saw the Drift Cuda...seeing old big metal flinging around is something special.
Tony + Jimmy + 240 = 🤙🏽
Thanks for taking us along this drift car build. Sounds awesome. A very strong car! 💯
Jimmy is the man! I love his channel
Living the dream ! SR20 with a nice turbo, tuned standalone and a premade perfect wiring harness, dreams! Rust free shell, aaaamazing! I had a 89 S13 that had the salt into it, frame rails peel away like onion layers, laminated mild recycle steel instead of virgin castings Nissan used, not salt friendly!
Right On Tony: Nice engine, and reasonably good car....make it happen!
Glad to finally see some appreciation for the tried & true mechanical fan! I can't count the number of times I've seen people install an electric fan in an attempt to fix an unrelated overheating problem, and many times they make the situation worse with the electric fan.
Awesome touch at the end boys. Loving the content. RIP KEN BLOCK
Enjoyed watching Tony on HRG but this NJ guy is loving the edgier north east vibe. Glad you’re back home and doing dumb stuff!
This channel is dope af. Loving the wide variety of content. 🚀📈
THIS is the video I’ve been waiting for
The harnesses and EMC/BCM were probably some serious $$$ but having it JUST WORK is almost priceless.
THAT CLUTCH. WOW. That's going to be one nice ride.
My favorite configuration of the S13 is that rust bucket, i love the pignose coupe but i cannot blame at all for not wanting to patch everything. I also genuinely think there was not a better person to bring aboard for this deal than Jimmy O. SR wizard for sure.
Nice. The clutch nearly offsets the cost of the nice chassis entirely. Score
Love it! I think @tonyAngelo was always cool to me because I always made drifting harder with my choice of car LOL!!!
“Good pizza and bad rust” hahaha. The most true statement about Pa ever said. Besides our awful Car swallowing pot holes
Right in the feels at the end, ouch 😥KB43VER
Wow finding that clutch was such an awesome moment.
This is one nasty Nissan Tony. Can’t wait to see it all completed and on the track.
Hahah when Tony jumped through the window. Btw We need local pizza reviews too!
Big Props to these guys with a ton of auto engineering, fabrication experience......an old guy like me can just sit back wish I understood all of what was involved in this transformation......
Hats off to TA, you and the crew drink the right beer. I noticed the can on the tool box.
Thanks! and thanks for watching! We like beer that tastes like beer!
The original head-up display cluster and dash from the rusty car is worth a pretty penny.
Pizza come from the barhroom? Loving the channel and build.
Sure wish 25 years ago I had not got rid of all my 240Z`s and 240SX's
You can build anything and make it entertaining. Can't wait to see this thing rippin
Thanks for not using Kens name to BOOST clics. Well done! and a great video will be watching for the finished project.
Nice score with that clutch!
I liked seeing the new alternator's bracket holes massaged on the drill press but with a hand held drill 😂 Loving all the content Tony. Hagerty made a good decision to collab with you.
Awesome ep as always 👍🏻💪🏻
Awesome video, nice touch at the end,Ken Block is the best 👍👍💔
02:20 The camera Man is a real one, trying to crop out that jacked up hair 😆
Been waiting for this episode! Jimmy and Tony collab. Hell yea...
Don’t forget the bagels too. Hahaha “good pizza and bad rust” straight facts.
Believe it or not we don't have a super local good bagel spot, not like NY/NJ here in PA.-TA
Got one of these. Built it into a ministock race car. Its so much fun! Love the video on your car!
Jimmy Oakes and Tony Angelo collab? Never thought I'd see that! Awesome!
Ready to Stay Tuned. Looks like a banger this week.
Thanks for watching!
@@StayTunedTA Always
Gotta John belushi thing going on With those sideburns kick ass
That dust pan mod is so sick , I love the outside of the box thinking 👍
How about showing some numbers when your at the dyno your Camara man hasn't been showing the screen I myself would like to apart of that part also love the content just show all of it. Thank you
Seeing that cloud of black smoke on that first dumbo pull, looks like the magic formula to clean out a 25 year old engine is gumout and 17psi of boost. Lol

5:34 Sound Good, said no Aussie ever about the SR20😂
No script = real fun
Hell yeah Jimmy! Love to see you on hagerty
Man, I love this T/A + Hagerty combo. Can we get a special guest cameo with Lucky Costa!!
I think he should be Hagerty's next pick up.
Finding that clutch is like buying a sofa from Goodwill and finding a kilo of blow in the cushion. Score!
42:05 THANK YOU KEN you are truly missed R.I.P.
I've had a few cars held together with structural cardboard.
Not that far from a PowerFC. That was also a drop in engine management system and still works well for old tech.
love this stuff... great Lose the Shop "real fab"
Oh soz, love what you're doing with the engine swop.
Sweet JDM
My heart goes out Ken block!!!!!!!!!!!And his family
32:00 Tony Angelo goes full send 😂
Love your work Tony, however you may find you are closer to Japan then most of Australia's population. We just drive on the right side of the car and share a timezone

Idk Jimmy personally but I think he's one of the most humble guys and he's great with nissans. I love seeing him on other big channels that never have him on. It's like wait ✋️ celebrity?! Lol
This show needs its own dyno.
Love this content. Keep it up guys! Be great if the other guys were miced up though so we could hear them clearly as well.
Noted! Prob pick up some more packs soon.
Good pizza bad rust
Awesome cheese steaks
And the
EAGLES!
Miss it bad
Good lookin cars and even better looking pizza. That deserves a sub
Great video Tony! Would love it if you got wireless mics for everyone, would bump up the quality big time!
great call on the car swap!
Can’t wait to see more of this thing!
Nice tribute at the end.
Thus makes me feel old. Friend bought a complete front clip from Japan for $2500 in the early 2000's. We took pictures of the setup. Developed them and then did the swap into his coupe.
That's pretty beastly for a 4 banger. Nice one!
That dust pan is my spirit animal; cut up and carrying on...
Jimmy is the SR man!! He works magic. He needs to hang with the S Chasis God Okichan.
I love seeing My insurance company support the creators and our hobbies! I love seeing videos on the 240sx!

This is one of my husband's favorite channels. I'm minding my own business and my cousin is on the screen! 😳🤣
Go the Aussie Turbo 👍
