10x01 Delivery From Japan [1000000000% JDM]

  • 2018-01-29T13:00:00Z15m

Bought this off the internet without ever seeing it and today it arrived from Japan

From the streets of Tokyo to the race track, we find out which is the fastest JDM mini Bike as we battle a Honda Motocompo against the Honda Zoomer.

We battle a 600 horsepower V8 Supercar using our dailies and other cars we've built from the MCM garage. But will our nuggets have what it takes to chase down a car that costs more than all of our cars combined?

Supergramps exploded while battling a V8 Supercar at the drag strip. Today we find out why...

We start modifying our Focus RS that we built in Germany at the Ford Factory, but will it have what it takes to defeat SuperGramps in an AWD turbo battle? In this series, we'll find out!!

We install an upgraded font mount intercooler and aftermarket exhaust on our Focus RS in preparation for a boosted battle with SuperGramps...

The RS gets boosted, and is now ready to battle SuperGramps...

We take our Mira and our 9 second Cresta down to the dragway for some runs!

Our Nissan FairladyZ S30 (240Z) has arrived from Japan but not everything is as it seems with our classic JDM coupe....

The engine goes in! After clearing our the engine bay, we can now start fitting up the engine and gearbox with the help of Mechanical Stig and Turbo Yoda.

IT'S TURBO TIME! The epic build continues as we make heaps of progress on our Nissan S30 build.

Let's clear this up once and for all... and we'll reveal the secret project that we've been working on!

Benny and Al are away this week so lets sort this engine issue out, plus we're taking you with us for the day to show you what we get up to between normal filming. Our regular 240Z episodes will kick off again next week.

It's a big one! TURBO goes on, fuel tank comes out, radiator goes on, wheels and tyres come off and a whole lot more gets done as our RB26 S30 build continues...

Our RB26 and turbo charger are done! And now In this huge episode, our Intercooler and inlet manifold arrive, plus our new fuel system goes in!

Our intercooler goes on, but not without drama as there's difference in opinion with how it should be done. We also install our oil cooler and make our cooling pipes.

The factory diff and brake set up was not going to be enough to handle RB power, so the decision is made to replace all of it!

Our RB26 is in, and now in this huge episode, the decision has been made to replace the whole rear end of the car. It's all hands on deck as we complete a total suspension upgrade all round with gear that'll be able to handle the power of our mighty RB26.

After months of work converting our S30 Fairlady to run an RB26 from a Skyline GTR, we turn the key for the first time....

Our RB is alive so it's time for the exhaust, suspension set up and then power runs on the Dyno to see how the finished conversion goes...

In this episode we reveal a higher power figure plus discuss the cost of the car and answer your questions about the RB conversion...

They told us not to do this... we did it anyway.

  • 2018-07-04T13:30:00Z15m

To make this JDM S30 legal on the road, it has to pass some mandatory engineering conditions including a plate brake test - so in this episode we're taking you with us on this raw episode of MCM...

Hang with us for the day as we work on our JDM nuggets* in the MCM garage...

*Fairlady is not a nugget... really it's not.

Our Mum's raced their cars at Sydney Dragway. Marty's Mum's engine then blew up so we replaced it with an EJ20 WRX Engine from a half cut of unknown origins. Inevitably, that engine blew up also, so on this episode of Mighty Car Mods, we're going to work out why - and then fix it!

With our freshly rebuilt STI Short block EJ20 back together, it's now time to re-install it into Marty's Mum's car.

This heavily modified car came up for sale on Facebook. I sent a PM to the seller straight away asking for PayPal info, transferred the money then sent a truck to pick it up the same day. What turned up was beyond anything I could have imagined.... 2WISTD

fter picking up this broken "EVO" show car for $4000, it's time to get 2WISTD working again so it can battle 2SEXY in an almighty track battle.

WILL IT RUN?? After picking up this discarded EVO show car for $4000, we fix it up and turn the key for the first time to see if this ex-Autosalon nugget can be a champion again!

After years of neglect, we're bringing this forgotten show car back to life! We fixed a strange fuelling issue so now we can finally start it and hear the EVO roar back into life!

DROP THE BASS/PANTS - It's not a show car until the subs are shaking your clothes off, so in this episode we attempt to get 2WISTD banging out some epic tunes!

This episode is shot 'Disrespected Nose' Style - this means no music, no VO and minimal editing.

We found 2WISTD on the cover of a magazine from 10 years ago featuring the full build and mod list, so now it's time to finally reveal the history of this car and see if it still lives up to the cover car hype...

After picking up this neglected show car for $4000 and fixing it up, it's finally time to see if 2WISTD has a blown engine, or if it's actually capable of making any kind of decent power. It's now on E85 but will the engine be able to survive a power run? Can the turbo hack it? And does it have what it takes to defeat 2SEXY? It's time to find out...

We uncover some more incredible 2WISTD artefacts from the previous owner...

Join Marty and Moog on an epic road trip across Japan in a car they've just bought off the internet.
