There is always a constant battle between what looks best versus what performs the best, but what if you could have both?
In this video I go over how to install tubs into your cars engine bay. Doing so not only looks much better, but also adds a tremendous amount of wheel clearance, needed for drifting.
I cover some methods and ideas about creating a street car that can still get down and drift with no clearance issues. I hope showing you all my ideas and methods inspires you to build something unique for your build.

I spent the last 7 years building this 1990 Nissan 240sx from the ground up by myself. I swapped out the KA24e for a KA24de. Then once more for a RB25det out of a R34 Skyline and couldn’t be happier. I have also converted the 240 to right hand drive, (which ended up saving my life!) After installing a few drift parts; such as a hydro E – Brake, and dual rear calipers, welded diff, solid suspension bushings and more, the car handled amazing. Surprisingly this S13 was able to drift and stay sideways perfectly despite the damage that was done to it.

How do you get so much done 🤯
you as a person just make me happy man, thanks for uploading and stuff
that's great you saved that car!!! but if it was right hand drive… that swap saved your life
I’ve always respected the level of quality workmanship you do Mike, but even more so your consistency to showing proper use of PPE and safe use of equipment with all the guards on grinders etc
You see so many YouTubers running without guards and PPE and whilst yes they are experienced and more likely to be safe whilst using them, I feel it encourages newbies to fabrication to go ‘i don’t need it cos Mr X Y Z doesn’t use it on YouTube’
Keep up the grind man, good shit 😎
Thank you Mike! for sharing , to weld clean tubs. Also when you start with the dash & wiring plz make it in depth just like this.🤟🏽
Hi mike where did you get your tubs from sorry for missing your video’s 3 weeks ago I had a electrical fire at my home I almost lost 3 cars that I’m building so now they are safe now me and my wife got to fined a new place to live 😢 but your 240 hatch is coming out awesome 😊👍🏼🤙🏼 much love to you and your girlfriend ❤ 👋🙏🏽🙂
Looking good dude!
Video is definitely a-flowin
Weird question but where do you get your gas for your welder?😭
“Not so happy anniversary “ bro
Hey Mike, can you front me half of your skill set?!? 🤣 You the man buddy 🤗
Holy chit I'm 99% sure I just saw either you or your girlfriend (or both) of you heading west on Schick — I was sitting at the County Farm light in front waiting to head North when a white S13 with black front fenders and hood and what looked like a type-x wing on the back went past right in front of me almost exactly at 8pm (Thursday night)! My S13 is still in the air so you wouldn't have noticed me sitting there in a black Lincoln, but there's not that many S13's floating around this area and the couple others I've seen were really really rough looking so it almost hadda be.
U honestly got me working on a car I never thought I mess with like ever
Cant wait to see this driving man. Giving me inspo to keep going with my car
Can it be done with the motor mounted? Or does it have to be removed? Stock KA. Btw it's looking dope af!!🔥
What type of welder do you use
Been watching every video since the crash, this is my favourite so far, love the cuts and how you explain everything you do man! Currently doing a fuse box Tuck on my sr 180sx while rebuilding the entire car and wondering if you'll do a full walk through?
love your tiktok’s glad to have found your channel love the videos and i really want a 240 like i use to 😂
Use some sort of panel bond glue an run along the weld lines underneath the tubs
The engine bay is looking good man beter dan factory 🙂
Looking good
Holy shit those welds were so clean, good stuff Mike! It’s coming together nicely 😍
7:12 what’s the background music? I recognise it but can’t place it, been bugging me for hours now!
I can't wait to get your Nissan repaired to give you a ride🙂
Awesomeness kicked in bro! 🤙🏻
I was buying my rusty rs13 200sx, checked phone and this was uploaded, Nice

That body is going to be so extremely strong compared to factory 😂
When this build is done I hope youtubers document the amount of hardwork you've put into the car and its backstory! Keep up the good work man! love it
Красава, выезд все ближе и ближе!!!
Love your shirt 😅
Caught myself thinking "I want to be as nice as Mike is" when he apologised for the fact it wasn't sunny. What a guy, so wholesome.
while there is a possibility.boil the front glass rack.rack top mount. sorry google translate.so that the metal does not burst there, everything boils well
uultra good
