this car has a torque dip- a slow car is when you punch it and nothing happens indefinitely. i'm surprised nobody ever complained about this with the s2000. anyways this thing was designed to be driven at higher rpm's, it's why it needs full synthetic which won't start to break down until you go past 300F. 240-250 is nothing, your oil is properly warm at 200. that said, you can install an oil cooler like i did- but you have to sit there and wait a bit longer for the oil to warm up before you drive off. this is if you track the car, do you track it? if you're just driving street, you don't need an oil cooler

@@MakePictures they do LOL, s2000 is a slow car

thanks! so that was 4 years ago- and right now, still looks the same. nothings warped, glue is still stuck in there strong. and the cars been outside the whole time- it’s been through very cold and very hot weather

lol thanks- i try my best to stay focused on getting the shifter into the right slot neatly- if i focus too much on how “quickly” i can do it i’ll misshift half the time. this car is about learning car control, and most importantly how to control your car after it’s lost control. this is why at almost every car meet some bozo in a mustang gt will try to spin the rears and then end up fishing into the median

it hasn’t moved since :) still holding strong.

Still haven't been able to find an emblem that actually fits in the hole

did you buy one and it didn't fit? what size did you try?

i just had the flywheel done couple days ago- gonna pick up the car and see if there’s a significant difference

yeah i still have mine on- it's been 2 years now, zero problems.

My 02’ celica gts also lost it recently

Do not put a lightweight on whatever you do. You have a harmonic balancer, vs just a standard crank pulley which would benefit from this mod. You need a fluid dampener, they last almost forever and is the proper upgrade for your car.

Of course your mileage may vary- the sunglass lens is curved and the edges of the gopro lens casing is rectangular and flat, so the edges probably won't be flush against something unevenly curved. but it's also curved past the edges of the gopro lens so even before light leak is an issue- the way light hits the curved sunglass has its own issues. You can decrease the potential side effects of the curved sunglass by make-shifting a lens hood that extends beyond the curvature. if you want perfect, try and find a pair of cheap sunglasses that have flat lens. similar to that brand Gentle Monster (not cheap), but if you can find similarly flat lenses for cheap, use the same exact build method and make sure the sunglass lens presses up flush against the gopro lens case- that would give you a more perfect result overall

Use Loctite and locking tabs.

lol go buy one then- if you love heavy ass cars that do nothing but understeer into corners, by all means

5.7-6.0 second 0-60 compared to the GR86 5.4 sec 0-60, AWD and turbo vs RWD and NA, 4 door vs 2 door.... yeah..

My concern you are micking around with the harmonics of the engine, in particular the crank. Surely lightening moves the harmonics up the frequency range. What happens to the low end frequency dampening? Balance it sure. But unless you are a switched on engine builder, who understand harmonics, and can fine tune the balancer, I wouldn't touch it.

Lmao I read your last few words as "buddy up". I was confused for a sec thinking "why do I need a buddy for this?"

@@TheTechNopal buddy up and go study!! Lol

More vibration, bad for high revving engine. This is why not all racecar use it. Different cars, different tracks, different setups. Edit: i'm talking under load

@@arvin6606 yeah I recently installed one that didnt have the rubber thing in it to help crank vibrations and the pressure plate strap broke within a few miles, at redline.. :) the longer the crank the more the oem damper is needed

@@zanastumasonisyou installed a lightweight crank pulley and it snapped the belt on you?

As an FR-S owner, I know it’s a Subaru foremost. Then that I have a Scion because Toyota marketed here in the U.S as that. In Japan some swap the Toyota badges for Scion ones just to be different. Guess it’s just wanting what you can’t have. Same with Red Honda Badges, lol.

slows down the crank? no

@@joemilton7552 Actually now that I think about it the crank moves at the same speed, it's the other accessories that slow down.

Yes

Wrong lightweight pullies have been dyno proven so yes there’s horsepower to be made period. I made 7whp and 9wheel torque more on my accord same day same dyno only change was pulley swap. Stock pulley is 7 ish lbs my new pulley is 0.6 lbs that’s a huge difference the engine has to work less and with an underdrive you get more power by slowing down accessories like ac and alternator means engine doesn’t work as hard.

@@HondaAccordPerformance no it is not possible to increase hp by reducing rotating mass PERIOD;. The automotive standard for measuring HP is at CONSTANT RPM. Changing the mass of the rotating assembly CANNOT affect this test WHEN DONE CORRECTLY. If you measured a difference then you did it wrong. I am a test engineer and I have more than 30 years experience building engines AND I am a race car driver.

@@HondaAccordPerformance if the pulleys UNDERDRIVE the system then YES you can get hp. But you cannot by reducing mass alone

Just gonna "weigh" in on this subject. You just said it is physically impossible to increase horsepower by reducing the weight these types of components in the engine. I disagree, let me explain. Believe me, I am fully aware of what parasitic drag is. Pumping losses and all that type of stuff. This engine makes X horsepower at the flywheel in stock configuration. Installing a lightweight pulley does indeed free up horsepower that is already there, but it was being used by the inertial weight built into that stock harmonic balancer. So the lightened pulley, if you still wanna call it a harmonic balancer does increase power. But it did not add power. However, the engine itself is not complete without the harmonic balancer. This main pulley drives all of the other accessories and attached pumps. It is not considered a part of the rotating assemble, but as a long block, it should be. There was also power gained by reducing the diameter, which further reduces parasitic losses. So no, it did not add power, but it did free up power. Just a technicality, at the wheels, they add power. Excluding bolt on performance parts that reduce parasitic drag. Lightning engine components does not add power impossibly. More power is a direct side effect of reducing any type of moving mass within or attached to the engine. Whether that be rotating or reciprocating. You are not exactly wrong, but not exactly right.

@@robertmoore119 I understand what you are saying but the fact remains you cannot increase measurable horsepower. Because "ideal horsepower" is measured at constant velocity. The rotating mass is NOT a factor at constant rpm.

So bought not built? lol.

Yep, better off saving and getting a Porsche Cayman.

@@brzo. That's fair, it does cost more to own in general. How about a 370z or mx5?

@@brzo. Unless you need the 2 rear seats, which are pretty useless anyways I'd get the 370z. A lot more power. The 86 is thirsty for fuel and lacks the power to make up for it's poor fuel economy. If you are willing to set some money aside or wait until you're in a better position, the Porsche Cayman is so worth it.

@@brzo. Driven both, drifting the 86 is better but in straights it isn't even close. 370z can leave many cars at the lights if that's your sort of thing. Both handle very well, 370z has a low center of gravity so it's all good from my experience. But there's times you just want to rip it down a nice straight and the 370z can do it pretty well. Neither car is comfortable and you can feel every bump in the road, but that's to be expected in a sports car. They also have very little tech, which for some is a good thing but again if you want some convenience it's lacking compared to a grand tourer. The 370z costs more but if it's within your budget I say get it, overall imo it's the better car, unless you're crazy about drifting.

But what about when you’re over 4500rpm? :))))))))

What the automatic 86 😂 yes the 86 is slow but it aint that slow

Yeah I know my toyota hiace van with a turbo v6 pulled on my 86 in a rolling race and the 86 was in 6th gear :(

Try beating them on an actual course and not on a straight line. Like he said in the video, if all you care about is acceleration, then buy a tesla.

the harmonic balancer is the crank pulley

@@joemilton7552 Yes. Your point ?

And don't forget about the aluminum driveshaft 😎😁👍

Exactly what I’ve been thinking on doing with my car. I have an old 1992 Toyota and all I want is to feel it smoother and easier to drive if you get me. My car is as smooth as it comes cause I put a lot of investment into restoring it fully stock but suspension. But these are upgrades I’ve considered for the fun of the car.

@@TomAnderson. I think personally, I would have put that effort into a rarer car. Unless it's a special model of Toyota?
