Pro tip - Use a red solo cup on the oil filter once you've loosened it to both grab it, and catch all oil that falls out of it while unscrewing to keep oil off your hands. Little trick I picked up while owning an EJ255 Subaru!

For the hood pin install, instead of nicely marking the inside of the hood like that, I will install the pin on the chassis then just drop the hood on it make a nice dent to drill out :D
I have a friend that clearanced his hood for an engine swap the same way. The V6 came out alright, and the V8 fit between the fenders just fine. It wasn't until it was all hooked up and running that we realized we needed a little more room right ..... HERE! (bang) and it fit perfectly ever since.
This is literally the best youtube series I have ever watched. Highlighting all the little things everyone else glosses over gave me so much insight I never had before. I'm planning to build a track car and this answered so many unknowns. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this .. .really.
@@mikeygti8930 it is what it is,as they said initially there are twats with double-triple that into a racing sim gaming rig....i know the path i would take
That's why I don't race. I very much thought that I wanted to until I realized I would spend more than $10k for the privilege of occasionally driving a no-longer-legal-or-comfortable E36 around the state on a trailer and sometimes tracks. I figured the same money is better spent on a nice-ish car that I can drive whenever instead. Such is life, I suppose. I did really want that race car, though.
I once worked on a Cooper S in 1970 as an apprentice mechanic. The engine was built and sealed by a "firm" in Blackpool. It was driven by Iain Tweedy in the British RAC rally. I got a go in it with a temporary 850 engine in it and brakes as hard as a whores heart. Still loved it. It was Scotland blue with a Saltire on the roof. I can still remember it clear as a bell.
"We are both used to sliding our tools into tight spaces"...had me chuckling loudly and, since im using headphones, had the wife looking at me like i'd just had a stroke.
@Flat Bastard Engineering Channel I've been watching every single second, most of them multiple times. Nick said it's a road car, sort of a hommage to his dad's rallye mini and supposed to be a mix of both worlds that he would drive hard. Belting it is going to ensue, I can taste it already. :)
I'm not sure how you knew to drop this episode as I was in the middle of watching Part 3, but thank you very much for catering so specifically to me. I'm flattered.
That Allen key trick for the spacer on the rear strut brace = most under rated certified RUclips mechanic trick on the internet. Excuse me while I find a reason to employ it.
Watched both races on RUclips. What a fabulous series. Glad to see a genuine low buck class of race cars. R Brunning , what a enthusiastic interview after race two. Keep up the great videos, have fun, stay safe. Richard CONGRATULATIONS on your very good finishing!!!!!!!!
Since stiffness is generally recognised as the product of the member's young's modulus (pascal or N/m^2) and its second moment of inertia (m^4) one may postulate that the resulting SI unit is Nm^2 (newton square metres) but that's a mouthful so I agree, let's just stick with "a bunch"
I am afraid you are mistaken Mr Brunning. It is a well know fact that the (ctrl-i) Système international (ctrl-i) unit of measurement of 'Bunch' is the collective term for some Bradys (ie. 6 or 8 Bradys depending on your point of view) As for adding a bunch of stiffness, Marcia Brady immediately comes to mind
To put the airbag lamp out try using 501 gapless bulbs and straighten the tabs and fit to the connectors. Airbag resistance is around about 3 ohms as is the 501 bulbs and should put the airbag lamp out. Hope this helps👍 keep up the good work lads!
A good friend of mine "helped" me install some suspension components by shearing a bolt in the a-arm that we needed for a critical bracket. Drill and tap or weld back together? Captive bolt.
Can't blame you for asking about moving the factory airbox to the boot floor. I remember a time in Australia where cars had to retain all their options - including a/c - so some competitors had the a/c compressor and condenser bolted down in the passenger-side footwell.
Done both and yes, slow car fast in anger is definitely the challenge. Maintaining momentum over a whole course is not as easy as mashing the go pedal at the right apex point to launch down the next straight. You have to use the whole course in mind, as long as those clods around you aren't getting underfoot. *_;-D_*
Wondering how many young people will even know what the series title refers to: Bargain Basement. There aren't many bargain basement sales any more. I went to one when I was young, maybe around 1970~ish. It was in the basement of Sears. That's how we could afford a washer & dryer. They were "scratch & dent" sales! 😅

Bargain Basement deals have entered the vernacular quite a while ago. I know what it means even though I never knew there was an actual Bargain Basement until just now.
On this side of the pond, most of the major manufacturers have outlets where they sell these items. It means they don't have to write off the entire cost of any superficially damaged goods.

I knew you guys knew your shit when it comes to this, but the thing that really just blew me away was at the 15:38 mark where he's using an allen wrench behind the rear strut mount to hold the washer in place so he can get the bolt thru it. I'm using that one at work.

Once queued up to sit in a Jaguar XJ220 but someone ahead of me caught the halon release lever as they got out the car and that was that !

I'm just teasing. I hope Project Binky videos never end. You guys are the best
This is bad, i want to go and buy a C1...
you're not alone buddy, OMELETTE DU FROMAGE!!
I know I am a grown ass man, but "A bunch of stiffness into the rear end" really made me crack up. I know it wasn't meant too, but it did. Keep up the great work lads! Covering warning lights was a part time job on my older cars before I got married, good job!
That little trick with the allen key and the washer was brilliant.
I love the allen wrench trick @ 15:31. I'll be incorporating that into my mental 'toolbox'.
This channel is Criminally UNDERSUBSCRIBED!
That washer holding technique is bloody marvellous!
Awesome work
Congrats on finishing it
Can't wait to see you race next week. You must be really happy with second place in the first two races.... 😊
Second in the opening race. We won Silverstone... 😉
@@BadObsessionMotorsport Nice driving sir, Looking forward to the next video. How many are there going to be in this series.??
8 or 9.
I knew you guys knew your shit when it comes to this, but the thing that really just blew me away was at the 15:38 mark where he's using an allen wrench behind the rear strut mount to hold the washer in place so he can get the bolt thru it.
I'm using that one at work.
Good luck on the race Richard! As for you Nick, I'm looking forward to all the brackets you make while Richard is away at the track.
Benny would be proud of that bumper removal 👌.
Top work guys. It's been enjoyable watching this series so far.
