[Music]
what is up guys and welcome to today's
video I know I promised you guys that I
was going to fully update you on my
competition plans this year in this
video I think that's going to come in
the next one I wanted to tie it in with
the Livery reveal just so I could Link
in with all my partners because it is
all very related to the plans that are
happening this year however we're run a
little bit behind on that so I want to
do one big like Grand reveal and talk
about everything so for today we're
going to really dive into the details of
this build I know we've been giving you
kind of like surface level updates but I
haven't fully unpacked what the
methodology is behind this car and kind
of why we're building it the way that we
[Music]
are
[Music]
we are back we are back we all are
closer every day the manifold is
officially armed so that's good yeah
have all the BRP Hardware titanium
Hardware remember we we're going for
lightweight going for lightweight I
could put the titanium downam pipe on
yeah one step closer to uh finishing
this thing up but we're doing pretty
much all the final button up things so
pretty much when we receive some of the
key components that we're missing it's
pretty much just that and then get the
card uh with fluids bleed everything out
fire it up uh let the tuner do his thing
get the engine to break can still quite
too do but it's flowing and it's not a
crazy amount of stuff right now right
now our main focus is to get the triy Dy
train running everything mechanically
done so we can get on the dyno should be
having our DC power alternators pretty
soon I'll make that line up and crimp it
up and then that's it we're good with
the lines we got to make sure that we
blow out the fuel lines MH cuz I don't I
I didn't do those so I just want to put
my hands on those blow them out then put
him back on the car sip time nicely uh
put fire sleeve in the areas where it's
going to be near theu cuz they all run
closely together I run back there not
too close but yeah I still want to put
sleeping on Mike is going to get behind
the wheel and then retire from
filming and show us what he's got behind
the CL drift Masters
[Music]
driver
[Music]
[Music]
sh
[Music]
you've heard us talk about it um you've
heard some of the parts that we're
choosing in this car why they're a
little bit different but the core
philosophy of this build is lightweight
and I want to let you guys know that the
reason being for that is because this
car is going to be shipped overseas and
competing over there I wanted to go with
an engine package that we already knew
and we already know is well within the
uh the means of what we're doing with it
and what I'm I mean by that is this same
exact engine package is what was in my
E36 for basically two seasons and was in
my S15 for one season and that same
engine has gone through a lot of abuse
and we know that at the 850 horsepower
level it's reliable so the goal was to
remove 100 to 200 lb of weight from the
car rather than making an extra 100 150
horsepower it Nets out to be about the
same and the cool thing is when you have
lighter drift cars you also put less
strain on drivetrain components the
clutch sees less abuse the gearbox sees
less abuse the diff everything is
happier when a car is lighter so um
spending a little bit more on
lightweight stuff might make a little
bit more reliable engine and drivetrain
program so I'm going to go into the
details of this engine setup cuz I
haven't really said everything exactly
in a video before the core of it to me
is the Garrett G35 1050 turbo this is my
favorite turbo technically the G35 900
is my favorite turbo for a 2J but for a
34 the G35 1050 is my favorite turbo the
compressor is still pretty small and the
shaft is pretty light so the transient
response is like na it's just like ba ba
you're always on the pipe there's never
any lag and for drifting it's really
important to be able to get into your
power band as quickly as possible and I
learned that when I drove my other E36
with a 3 L motor tried to drive it with
the same grip level and it took so long
to get up to wheel speed that it wound
up throwing off my marks because now you
have to wait for the car to come in to
boost even if you clutch dump it off
limiter so this setup is really good
it's probably a little bit under size
for a 34 I could probably put something
on it that makes closer to 1200
horsepower but again this is what I know
this is what I love and this is what
I've won the most competitions with this
manifold is actually the one from the
S15 which is also the same manifold that
we had on the other E36 um no particular
reason other than the fact that we're
sharing spares between all of the cars
doc race actually doesn't even make 2JZ
manifolds anymore which is a bummer but
it's helpful to have everything on the
same jig that way if something breaks we
can always pull it off another car we do
run the biggest AR possible on this it's
a 121 we don't rev the engine super high
but between ethanol and a 34 it's really
important to let it breathe um engine
wise specifically this is a BC stroker
kit it is their lightweight 34 crank I
don't remember the compression on this
motor off the top of my head but usually
we run somewhere between 9:1 and 10 to1
I want to say Yan do you remember what
this one is this one 10 to1 all right so
a little bit spicy we run on ignite Red
fuel this car I don't know if we'll be
able to get ignite overseas but
regardless on all you can get a little
bit more greedy with the compression
picks up a little bit more response a
little bit more spice head package on
this it's a cnced head with BC 272 cams
um we've tried a couple different ones
couple different sizes again this is
like the package that seems to work
really well and I do want to say uh
engine packages is something that we are
focusing on this year with drift HQ not
only will we be able to send out an
engine package if you have a local
Builder that you like to use but we're
actually going to be doing fully
assembled engines that we were going to
be having on the Shelf this year my goal
of course would be to have the exact
setup that I run selfishly because then
we would also have more spares but if
that's something you're interested in
reach out to sales drift hq.com whether
you want to go wild with a 34 setup or
if you want to be cost effective and
start with a GE motor we packaged for
all different types of uses street cars
drift cars and the guys know jzs like
the back of their head I mean this
compound is literally all BMWs that have
JZ engines couple minor things uh we've
got the PRP coil kit super nice and tidy
and also really easy to service we've
had a couple different coil setups over
the years on Jay-Z's including LS coil
packs and some of them are a nightmare
if you get a diag or do something at the
track these radium fittings are the
coolest thing in the world we run them
on every single engine that they make
them for they swivel they're nice
they're clean very easy to access it's
not on here right now but you saw plasma
and intake manifold that's a big change
on this car coming from the other one I
predict we might lose a little bit of
mid-range torque but pick up a little
bit of top end power with it it's kind
of just a common thing you see with
plenums the other car I didn't want to
delete the brake booster and that's part
of the reason why I kept the stock
intake manifold so this car we are doing
the chase Bay booster delete I don't
know how it's going to feel this car's
actually got completely different brakes
too it's like a very lightweight brake
package from willwood I don't know how
it's going to feel if it's good it's
likely something that'll Implement in
the other car but we're kind of doing
all the stuff on this car that we've
talked about doing on the blue car but
we never got around to doing or just
didn't really see the need to do um
other than that got a true Focus Fab
catch can I want to give a massive shout
out to them cuz they knocked this thing
out in like literally no time they
usually mounted on the other side of the
car but we always like to keep catch
cans on the opposite side from all of
the hot Parts just in the event that it
spills out oil next to hot things can
cause a fire uh and trying to think what
else other fany stuff I mean it's pretty
simple it's a Jay-Z not dry some thank
God for BMWs they allow us to run a rear
sump pan and with all the g-forces
drifting going on Banks and stuff you
don't really run into oil starvation
issues like you do on front pan s
chassis however though technically wi as
a kit now so you can run rear SU in s
chassis 2 I haven't tried it yet but I
heard it's pretty cool this year we have
officially partnered with pwr as well
which is very exciting for me you guys
might have seen in my videos a long time
ago when I was in Australia I got to
visit their headquarters they are the
leading in Cooling in the world they
make stuff for whether it's Aerospace
Formula 1 all stuff that they probably
can't even talk about because they're
under NDA they make the highest end
products that's going to keep our car
the coolest not only that they've been
custom making us stuff to be as light as
humanly possible so stuff like an
intercooler we're saving 10 15 lb off
the nose of the car while also being
significantly more efficient than its
heavier counterpart so very cool they're
able to make completely customed stuff
with a pretty quick turnaround and they
also have a lot of really great off
the-shelf options for many of the
popular Platforms in drifting street
cars you name it another big change on
this car is we made the switch over to
BC's ER series on the other car we're
running DS and that was more than
adequate for what we were using E36 for
but given a lot of the different
scenarios this car is going to be put in
having separate rebound and compression
adjustments going to be huge very
similar to the setups that I've run on
all my other Formula Drift level cars
and this sets custom spec to exactly
what we're doing with the car the
weights in the front and the rear and
it's going to have us grip in however we
choose one other things that's different
with this car is we're running an FDF
angle kit um that I gave a little bit of
specs and differences and changes for uh
we're still in the testing phase I want
to say I did one event with my other car
with the FDF angle kit I liked a lot of
the things that I was able to do with
the car that I was limited with my old
angle kit um and I think give it maybe
one or two rounds we're going to be able
to dial it in where all have plenty of
angle and we can make the car do exactly
what we need um but it's way easier to
adjust these little things I forget what
they call them the coolest thing ever so
like if you have an E36 and you have
lollipops it's annoying you have to like
pull them out to adjust them this you
can adjust while still leaving it in
everything's very easy to replace we
obviously are the USA distributor for
FDF their customer service is amazing so
whenever we need spare parts or anything
we get it like that uh moving backwards
with the car uh I guess I didn't talk
about fueling um you guys will see when
it's fully assembled we're running
radium's fuel cell with their surge tank
with three dks dw400 fuel pumps that are
powering DW 1500c injectors uh obviously
you didn't see them cuz the manifold is
not in right now um we've had amazing
luck with them run D injectors on all
the cars reliable very affordable easy
to tune with and great support uh
transmission same thing as the other E36
GeForce GSR fourspeed I used to be a
sequential boy and then once I saw the
way of the fourspeed I would never go
back in drifting you really only use
like two to three gears Max sequential
almost becomes redundant and a lot of
times they're built with all the ratios
being a lot closer together so you end
up shifting more of the sequential and
when you're like used to a fourspeed you
can shift it like I I think I can shift
it just as fast as I can shift any
sequential and drifting we can't take
advantage of the flat shift features
that you would use with a sequential
just cuz sometimes it gets weird when
you have wheel spin and stuff people do
it and they make it work for sure um but
I definitely prefer the four- speeed
literally when a full season again I
think almost two full seasons zero
maintenance Yan will pull it apart to
inspect takes him no time and uh the
wear and tear is like virtually nothing
so that's cool same handbrake setup as
the other car this car we did go with an
aftermarket steering column it's
adjustable it collapses uh and most
importantly it saves weight over the
stock unit the other car again like we
that car started as a deal because
someone owned it and it was a street car
crashed it couldn't afford to fix it and
then it just evolved over the years this
year we're doing everything from the
start fire suppression the biggest thing
I guess is rear mount radiator I love
not having rear mount radiators because
I just have never been a fan of having a
lot more weight in the rear so that's
going to be a big change of the car uh
we took precautions to move it as far
forward as we possibly can rather than
having it super far sticking off the
back you basically just get a pendulum
effect and it kind of drives like if
you've ever driven a a 911 um you'll
know exactly what I'm talking about it's
the same thing with drifting the more
you can kind of have the weight Central
the better uh but I I think this is
going to be a good location again pwr we
got the sweet hdk shroud brushless fans
rear end is pretty much identical to the
other car a little bit different crft
structure and then the diff we switched
over to a bulldog really nice Billet
casing looks pretty should be strong
reinforce the crap out of the chassis
wherever we could uh yeah I feel like
that's about it obviously there's going
to be more updates throughout the car
but I've been seeing a lot of questions
just because we're kind of grazing over
the surface of things um
so comment if there's anything else you
want us to touch on oh clutch wise I
didn't talk about the clutch I think I
don't want to say I think we're under
clutch cuz I feel like I'm going to jinx
myself we're running a clutch Masters
850 Series clutch I think that we are on
the upper limits of it but we've had
really great luck with it I like the
flywheel weight I've tried different
clutches that I've not been a fan with
not a sponsored thing we pay for the
clutches but a lot of drifting a lot of
racing you just you find what works and
you don't change it so uh trying to keep
the thing things that are the biggest
headaches the same that way we know
exactly what we're getting and know
exactly what to expect finally
here one of the most important things
for the
car fresh harness and your
harness chassis chassis and

B
if you didn't recognize his familiar
face Jay from Jay-Z wraps in Texas came
out and he's been putting in work not
only on this car but on the other one
too you guys can obviously get kind of a
sneak peek of what the wrap's going to
look like but he's been crushing it this
front bumper I think is one of my
absolute favorite pieces spent a lot of
time just getting all the trim to look
absolutely perfect hide as many seams as
possible and of course the finish of the
nose attack vinyl is coming out amazing
um next video you guys should see the
final look of how this thing is coming
together but lot of progress has been
made got the wiring harness Johan's
getting all that situated right now
hopefully we'll have it firing and
ripping in no
time when
