I can't believe you guys found such a clean GSX ! Gonna be another great build !!

[glennallen]

You guys have no idea how happy I am to see this build

The priceless moment for me was when they hit full boost, and the look of disappointment because they had just experienced the torque of the electric cobra

Nothing better than a DSM. great to see something different being built..

When I had my DSM... I used a spray bottle of soapy water an sprayed at all the vital areas/connection points where a leak may occur. Thus if there was a boost leak during the test you'll see bubbles indicating the leak. The injector seals are also notorious for dry rotting an leaking under boost. Others used a smoke test. Either way works better than just trying to hear for a leak. Glad to see this one in good hands.

Hey guys, without getting in too much detail, my Z was totaled 1.5 years ago when some girl hit it while it was parked overnight. Being a new father then and having expenses and responsibilities adding up, I used the insurance money to catch up on things and whatnot instead of buying another car. We already had a Grand Cherokee, so it wasn’t that necessary where we live. Anyways, being a car guy since I was 12, I finally didn’t have a project car for once. Almost 23 years 😐 I stopped watching all car related channels on YouTube to not further my sadness. No more Throtl, no more TJ, no more all the ones I watched. Until this morning, when this video popped up on my feed. I worked 2 jobs in 1998, when I was 16, to buy a GSX. To this day, the model is one of my top 5 cars. No lie. Have to watch this series now! Thanks for bringing a smile to my face, memories of my late teenage years, and a feeling that I’ve been missing since I saw my completed Z a twisted mess and being flatbed towed away. Thank you!!

Love the Fast Builds boys, keep up the good work

[anthonyciccariello]

13:41 I totally agree! I think it should be all hands on deck to finish that vehicle. Stop all other projects until it is complete
