New YouTube Channel for my SS Build

I've decided to start a channel documenting the build process of my SS. So many vloggers with "typical" cars - why not one for the SS?!?

Check out the intro video doing a walk around of the car!

Nice work, Nick! That was tricky at the beginning, I was thinking, wait.... why are the bumpers wrong? Lol, One thing jumped out at me, the Brembo option was RPO J56, which I think was available with auto also(not 100% sure). It was RPO G85, LSD, that required a manual trans. Love the stuff from Altered Ego.

Nice video! Look forward to seeing more about your build. I just had ZZP put on a catted downpipe, intake, GMS1 sensors, and one of their tunes. I am amazed at how much the car woke up and improved from these small and easy changes. Makes me wonder what else this little car is capable of.

Nice work. The opening segment had me about to hit my screen, though...

Good luck with it. I suspect drivetrain loss will result in a lower number at the wheels once you dyno than you suggest, but still you got all the LDK improvements.

And, this is driveable whenever you wish. No race fuel, NO2, etc.

Nice job!

That's awesome! I'm looking into their 3" catless downpipe

**NEW VIDEO ON THE CHANNEL**

What is suppose to be a routine car show prep, turns into a project.
