Help! I need a sub name for this build, something to replace “V8 Vantage” shoot me some ideas in the comments. In this episode, I unbox all of the “Hard to find” parts for the vantage, and in a strange turn of events, end up fixing the original power steering pump.
Thanks so much to Richard from redpants for all the help and selling me his parts. For all your Aston needs check out http://redpants.lol

Will you ever do a Gallardo, McLaren or a Ferrari?
You make it look so easy, 95% of us that think we could change the oil filter can't do what you can do.I'd love to know your background,does your old man build cars,have you always been around mechanics? If you came to Australia to do a build you would break your bank account,everything is more than twice as expensive.

What’s the name of the sit he get his cars from
Get the machine gun option..
I would glue a plastic glas behind the fender wrap it with camelion tape and build my own led light begind that .
1800$ more if the motor blows 😀
I’ve rewatched your intro video to the Aston Martin and you were thinking of paint, wanted to show you this and maybe you could use this to apply to the white but it looked good https://youtu.be/uOgjTjYO_bM haggard garage did a cheap but good looking paint job to the engine bay
I had a 350z shipped greyhound, NEVER again. Lost all my money 😣😣
the ad with flow dancing in money played before this…..
why would you buy bumper reflectors for a drift car?
turbo
Just call it the "Drifton"
Chris, why not sell the engine? it'll save all the euro issues/prices? nothing wrong with an LS turbo!
Surly you know some one with a lathe! Chuck the pulley up and correct the issue !
*power steering
I think I'd have considered getting a brand new bonnet (hood for those who speak broken English), and making a mold from it. Then make a fibreglass or even carbon fibre composite duplicate and sell the aluminium bonnet to recoup some cash. Perfect for drifting as you can just use the mold to make another brand new one.
Did you torque down that pulley?
+1 for everyone saying to make moulds of your panels. If you're going drifting there will be points where you or someone else runs out of talent and in all likelihood stuffs gonna get bent. If you take the moulds after doing the widebody you can just reproduce/have reproduced new bolt-on parts without needing to find second-hand genuine parts that will need modifying all over again.
As always keep up the good work!
The point of a drift car is to have it be cheap so it can get banged up, idk about drifting an Aston.
It should be called the "Pocket Rocket"!
Chris are you going to make a b is for build t-shit for your Ashton Martin!?
The jag parts are similar but aston wont tell you cause its more expensive and they would lose business if you can do the research and even though the pump for the jag has 2 bolt hole you could use one. When you do the search you will notice that theres a lot of jag parts with aston martin.
I would have parted out the whole car after seeing $900 for a headlight.
do you not have any paintless dent repair shop near you?
two things, ive noticed with the shipping, the parts are wrapped kinda poorly. Look at how youre storing the hood, on the two bent corners, exactly how a delivery person would stack it, from what I can tell of the unwrap there was alot of squashed card and some bubble wrap, there wasnt any foam blocks protecting easily damageable areas (if there was then my bad) and if there was some then the corners would likely be fine. Same foes for the hood, if theres an easy side to stand something on, thats the side itll very likely get stood on thus be damaged therefore should get better protection. Not your fault but not entirely the couriers either when parts dont get wrapped decently.
Granted the pump is fixed, but if its just that part thats damaged and dependant on cost, could you not have gotten a new one machined?
"2J Advantage" If you change your mind again… I myself would like to see the V8 stay but if you do go the 2JZ rout that'd be a good name.
Do not drift this, just keep it nice and dandy
what happened to the evora, you still have it?
Advantage to the vantage
bro don't drift this car keep it in nice condition and daily the shit out of it. drift the 2jz brz instead. i personally wouldn't feel ripped off if you didn't make it a drift car just so you know.

hopefully this helps for future b is for building,
peachys,.
Hey Chris. Do you only use that lift thing or do you add anything else for security?
Best build you've ever done and I've watched alllll of them
British Drift vantage
this is stupid idea to drift it
Just filling in dents with filler is the wrong way to repair anything. You can repair aluminum the proper way with little filler needed.
