- WE'RE GOING TO THE TRACK!!!!
Well gals and guys, this is it. This is the end of the epic saga of the 350z builds. We finally figure out if more expensive means more better. Is Hi Car actually faster than Low Car?
WHY DID WE EVER THINK THAT WE COULD DO ALL OF THESE MODS IN THREE WEEKS!!!!????
Enjoy.

Hello :)
Helno brother
It's so sad to see this series come to an end. It was my favorite show on the channel. This one and money pit.
I want money pit to focus on that awesome 240sx
There's gonna be another season tho with different cars. It's not over over but the Z's are done
hi/low and money pit is S tier donut content
is it really over tho ? maybe there will be an engine swap & more modifications.
ah i replied way too early.
I HOPE they bring back Aaron for season 3. He is one of my favorite things about this series. Extremely level headed, and seems like a legit decent due. All of them are great though.
ill be there
@@aaronhernandez2971 wait arent you dead
@@camerondenis4007 lmfao
does't seem so legit dude, there's has been some arguement with aaron in multiple episode. Prbly alot of controversial behind the camera.
@@potassiumchloride2542 are you referring to when him and Nolan got in an argument in Hi Lo? lol
It was prolly cause Aaron is a serious long term wrench cranker and Nolan was upset lol, which is perfectly understandable. He seems like a super dope laid back dude. Check out his personal social media and CZcams channel. They all tight
That's what I love about this show: They are so realistic in the fact that you can sink 50K into a car and it STILL might break. Just do what you want to have fun.
It's cause the motor wasn't built . Build the motor and it will last so much longer .
@@sirspeedsalot Yeah I agree. Like James said, biggest factor to the cars failing was boosting the cars. Imo, the biggest key factor when it comes to boosting an engine is you gotta make sure the internals could handle it especially if you're planning to push it.
I think it also kinda speaks to how shitty the 350z engine is. It literally couldn't handle 60 hp over stock.
@@AshS85 they had no supporting mods that's why . Non built de motors can handle about 400hp and about 380 torque my G35 has the same engine and I've been supercharged for 2 and a half years now . And I beat on the car daily .
@@sirspeedsalot What are some examples of supporting mods? I am looking to build a fun summer car, so it would be nice to know how to do it right

Yes it was the coolest series

It was A BLAST
Hope it will come back soon

That was an awesome series, i tune car for like 15 years right now and you put in evidence the struggle to always build/break/repair with the deception/frustration/hope/happiness every cars enthusiast should have.

Its 3 am in texas and i stumbled upon this comment
I enjoyed the heck out of this series. I used to own a 2003 305Z and this series reminded me how much I loved that car. It started with wanting to get a tuner car myself and ended with "man that looks like a lot of work". Either way I binged this entire series yesterday and loved it. I'd love to see you guys tackle another track car, maybe an older honda?
Everyone on this channel looks like they are good friends! keep up the good work!
Next season, Hi-Low rally cars for beginners. That'd be sick.

i hope Nolan gets the high car next episode tho
Please

For the next season of HILOW please do A 3rd Gen 4Runner overland build!
Great videos guys. Super entertaining and genuine. Keep it up!
get 2 subarus and do a rally hi-low. Would love to see your thoughts on modding a boxer lol
Yeah they should do foresters or legacies
Na they should do some early 2000's WRX's as they can be picked up for pretty cheep and have a huge aftermarket community

HiLow Season 2: Rally Cars!! (Subarus?)
just throwing it out there :)

^ THIS!!
Or EVO’s
@Bob Saget Jesus who are you around where everyone has a wrx? Also why hate on people driving quality cars. They are clearly popular for a reason.
@Bob Saget you know 16 year old uncle's? Besides I sold my WRX. Just to clarify I'm a uncle not a16 year old.
All the work put into this is not underappreciated. Love Love Love It! 😁
by far my favorite series ive ever watched on CZcams
The next Hi/Low should be AWD Rally hatchbacks, quattros, imprezas, golfs, etc. You could even road trip them up to Washington to Dirtfish to get some training and track time.
YEEEES
Rally cars would be sick. Would love to see Evos, E30s, or Integras
Or ORR hear me out, a DSM eclipse 🤠
love the idea..
imagine 90s - early 2Ks subies and evos..
mods it to be daily ride that can go dirt rally/speed offroad on weekends
I like this plan
Hi Low Season 2. Nolan gets high car and james takes low car😂
Yes!
yes, and start with cars that are turboed stock (n54?)
You see I like the idea but nolan has aarron and it's almost unfair if he drives the best car
why do I always post a comment first and then somebody else says it and gets all the likes :/

But most importantly, never get the cheapest parts..

i just baught 350z today for my first car at 14, even though I cant drive it yet this series has given me so much inspiration for modifying it.
I’d love to see them do a “lessons learned” episode where they make a “best” version.
That....is an amazing idea
Great idea! Pointing out where you can cheap out and where you should opt for the pricey product
Oooooh 100%
@DJ Coin Laundry kinda? Issa different vibe
Dude. To go and remove the turbos would be a huge deal!
4wd/awd daily "rally cars". Like a wrx or an evo or something like that😍
Nah we gotta go full on cheap, buy a cheap rally car lol
that would be literally the best high low series i could imagine!😍

Love this serious. More like this please.
High low was the moment I realized that american top gear needs to shut down and they just need to work with these guys.

Also take a look at Gears & Gasoline!
American top gear has been shut down for almost 5 years now.
Please do an engine teardown episode - would love to see diagnosis! my guess is there was too much compression.
Agree, it would be really cool to have a tear down episode. My best guess : They were overheating coolant even with a good upgraded radiator. AFAIK they didn't upgrade oil cooling or add any oil temp gauges or sensors, and they didn't mention if they chose a different oil for track. Oil temps probably was through the roof especially with these turbos.
I think both, the overheating on top of the compression could've bent some metals in there haha
@@mohabz888 could be head gasket
If you guys are going to continue the off-road series after the Tacoma’s, it would be awesome to see a secondary Hi-Low off-road series about who could build a better ‘90s Jeep. The box Cherokee XJ and the first-gen Grand Cherokee ZJ are cheap enough to start with. The XJ has the 4.0l l6, and the ZJ has the 4.0l as well as the 5.2l V8 (and more rare 5.9l V8 for 1998.) Cherokees have better aftermarket support, but if you’re good at welding, the ZJ can be one hell of an on-road/Offroad monster too. Either way, keep up the great work guys, keep doing what you guys do so well, and MO POWAA BABY!

Lets go lower a 1980s Hyundai Excel 🤣🤣🤣
need to see these back!
Really good series! But I’m guessing the breaking point for both cars were the bolt-on turbos. But I’m guessing forged conrods and forged pistons with proper compression rates for turbo charging would help bring in more horses. However, I guess there isn’t a low option for such mods.
Ebay rods and Pistons vs quality shit

Just wanna say that HI/low is the best series at donut imo.
Suggestions: Golf, E9x ,E46, Saab 9-5/9-3, Audi A5
e46 or e36 for sure! And I gotta say Hi/Low and MoneyPit have stolen the show with the repeat watch-ability! I, too often, find myself up late watching those two into the wee hours of the night and dreaming I too have a beast in the driveway!
What if they went the Nolan route and both bought the same '52 imperial and tried to make them go with new v.s. vintage speed parts
I'd love to see E92
Kinda diggin the Saab idea......
Saab 😍
the next Hi/Low: rebuilding the engines, cheaply vs expensively ✌😎
I'd say throw a 2J in one and an LS in the other... high/ Low engine swap addition.
calholli ^ this is the most beautiful idea I’ve ever heard
@@calholli a CZcamsr named Mike Myke Ls3 swapped his Z and it's fuckin MEAN. 500 Hp forged internals and block.
That's a great idea!
ENGINE SWAP!!!
The turbo was the thing that killed the Z's
Coupled with time constraints.
A turbo'd car can be reliable, but you will need to lower the compression ratio if you want to run any serious boost.
Hi car was clearly pretty neglected as it was quite down.on power before the turbos were added, but they gained a lot after turboing it.
So probably to much boost on stock compression.
On low car they probably had problems with the oil return line. As it was quite low down probably the oil returning from the turbo backed up thus creating oil issues.
Most of the cheap mods could probably be made to work better with some small changes, like a second fan and a simple aluminum shroud to force all the air through the radiator, instead of the extra air just escaping/wasted.
@Michael Carter the numbers were very disappointing for the money put in. Gti can surpass that power and reliability for way less and certainly more fun in my opinion
That’s why bolt ons are normally the way to go for more power
The best car enthusiast show ever, no questions
Zach's car has an overheating issue at Willow Springs.
"Hey, I've seen this one before!"

hey Donut! would love to see some "off season" Hi/Low Car rebuild episodes where you both pull the motors to investigate damage and even see what may be rebuildable!
Yessssh
Bullet aluminum block for hi Car and for low car a better engine block.
That C-west hood is so sick, I can’t stop looking at it
That dip on the Low Z is low-key one if the best colors I've ever seen on a car, and it probably wouldn't look that good on any other car than the z
