I'm no Honda guy, I watch because of the awesome people and their personalities on this channel, seeing this engine go together and hearing Brent explain it all was super cool. I'd love to see more of this type of stuff.
Gtfoh if you're not a Honda guy
Same here. I'm a LS Guy these days but as Brent says they are all air pumps.
I think alot of us are like this. Just car enthusiasts... not gonna lie tho I think my next build will be a little honda k series build something like the freedom civic. Just a mean 500whp awd daily go and beat up on coyotes on the streets if needed lol
Die hard ford boy here!! Just good content and good people
Not a honda guy either but found pfi years ago and now respect the potential of these engines.
These dad and son moments are priceless! Being able to see inside one of these NSX engines makes me realized how much Honda was ahead of its time. Love it!
Thank you Brent!
Such a cool engine. Thanks for sharing it with us. Honda used what they learned from their early rev-happy race bikes on all their later cars and it shows.
I like the dad moments with Steven. Freaking awesome Brent.
Brent, nice build! just fyi, LS engines do have 6 bolt mains stock. 4 vertical and 2 horizontal. Referring to the comment at 7:27. Nice work as always!
Hats off to the engineering team that produced this amazing package.
The valve train is wild.
Before I started watching you guys and the boostedboiz I knew nothing about Hondas. Now I'm pretty confident that I can build one!! Over the years I've learned a lot from you guys.
Lets face facts, majority of everything you've learnt is from Brent and his boys (Sons & Jamie). Kyle, ehh not so much
@@dinxsy8069 dont be a debbie downer. Hondas are generally easy to build, I work on euro stuff (BMW audi, Jaguar etc but ford are just as bad) I need to buy specialist tools to do timing on every engine, honda, toyota, nissan, generally build their engines with dowels and keys, so its just join the dots, or line up the links and so on. follow the service manual and a monkey (with an eye for detail) could do it with basic tools. If Mr BURNING BRIDGES only ever worked on chebby small blockes, then yes with these videos he likely could tackle a B16.
@@dinxsy8069 Nobody has learn anything from Brent, I'm the godfather of Hondas. I'm 3 years old. So shut it
I'm 8feet tall and my brain weighs 5kilos, because I have a honda tumor in by pecker that is also 555 inches long.
I'm Super serial. I was a high revving single engine coal launcher in my past-future life.
I agree. I was the same way. Grown to love the Honda motors. It’s amazing what they can do
ive rebuilt multiple D series, j32a1's and honda trans because of PFI. I love that they arent afraid to show you how to do something and when something gets messed up they show you how to fix it.
I never knew the NSX engine had 6 bolt Mains! I knew it was overbuilt but damn! They were way ahead of their time!
Absolutely loved the engine build Brent, not every day you get to see that masterpiece of a engine put together.
Nothing better than watching the vtec master building the master of all vtec!
Runs all the bolts in by hand before torquing.......a true champion
brent you are my hero. im about to earn my Honda Master Technician badge and youve been a force in helping that happen. ive learned and watched along with you guys through my whole career and this video at only 1 minute in is already one of the most special moments of my time with you guys. thank you for everything sir, hope to meet you in the shop someday! wishing you all the best always
That connecting rod piston squirter could be a great way to integrate that feature into engines originally designed without them
The master at work. Always awesome to watch and learn.
Classic, I'm getting my cousin's 91 nsx he put in a curb. So I have fix the suspension. And was going to J swap it. But if it has this C30A motor, I'm going to build it instead keep it original, with all the custom aftermarket parts I have found. Probably easier in the long run. And both will make a ton of power build. Especially with the Ft600s I have waiting to go in the racecars, transmission almost done and engine/ heads coming relatively soon. Shout out to Sean from P2R for the R&D of there head problem, tools, tips, and engine vendors like Ferrera coming on board. Love all the J series guys that are bonifide developers and not out for a quick buck and lackluster custom service. Heel toe, P2R, K tuned, Ferrera, racing break or rb performance, PCI compliance bushings, insane shafts, Honda OEM , Cardinaliway Acura, WPC treatments, Brian crower, the head jobs all CNC machine. CCS engines. Endless Rpm, TB motorsports, Fong from PFI speed, Tuff Track. FuelTech, Love all the new parts companies are working on, finally some J series support, so much needed on a great bonifide platform.
you should still think about the j route..a lot of the community store their c engines after a couple of miles and swap to j just for the aftermarket and cheap parts.. and keep the c engine fresh.. but then again if you really want to experience the car and plan to keep it forever just run the c to the end of life then j swap
Your videos are awesome brent i remember your first video of you being a a bit shy now we get to see the real brent and hes awesome full or positivity .
The block is surprisingly compact, never thought such a displacement could fit into a small package like that.
My first boss Kris Kettlson built a nissan 300 zx convertible with a 4 bolt main 350. This was the fastest car I had ever driven in with a man who could drive the balls off a donkey. He sold the car to purchase the first black nsx in vancouver. That car was like driving in the millennial falcon. Nobody in the world had seen the likes of a car like this. I'm eternally grateful to Kris and his vision in automotive greatness. I've driven every car known to man to this day and the engine in the nsx is something to behold.
that timing brent looked so tough to do!!
Some knowledge from the master. 🙌🏽🙌🏽 we’re not worthy, we’re not worthy.
2:08 So the C30 comes with 6 bolt mains??????? Whoa , THAT'S SICK
She's a beaut, super stoked to hear it rev, closed deck, titanium rods, v-tech, V6, pretty sure it needs a turbski and Fuel Tech
That was pretty neat to see the inside of that engine. Thanks Brent.
Neat engine, nice video. FYI, the LS engines absolutely DO have 6 bolt mains stock 😎
There he is the nicest guy on RUclips Brent 🤘🏻
The LS's do have 6 bolt mains and they are arranged in the exact same manner
Good luck on all your fabrication and installation. 👍😎 ☝️🙏
I love watching these engine builds.
Thanks for showing us the cool details of the C30A engine. Imagine if Honda would have made a V8 version of this engine design. I can only imagine what that would sound like at 10K RPM!!!
Damn, never knew they had 6 bolt mains! And that huge girdle plate! That bottom ends stout!
very cool to see a piece of Honda history.
I am glad two nsx going back together....😊you work so hard on other people's cars....good to see you doing good .....🎉
Is cool that you are building the original engine for the NSX.
This is my Jam! I’m currently rebuilding a 93 VG30DETT. Very interesting to see the similarities, and differences in the 90’s JDM quad cam V6’s.
Those cylinder markings on the cam gear are damn genius. Good job whoever designed those.
BEST INFORMATIVE VIDEO I have seen you produce. Basically a STEVE MORRIS video minus 2 cylinders.
Brent...your a smart guy.
Funny you mention the ls 6 bolt mains.. at dart we removed the outside main cap bolt to increase the integrity of the block and the web of the mains! Great vid, I work at Honda but don’t get to see the Acura stuff too much!
Removing that outer bolt allowed from a 3/8 stud to a 1/2 and get allll the clamping force
Brent?? It's been forever man. You made me miss my 92 NSX. Looking great man! This is Vance form back in the day.
Steven looks so much like Brent his smile and everything both boy's look like him even sam but Steven looks just like him great video guys keep them coming
Glad to see you final got the nsx off of the back burner.🎉
The mechanic working next to me took apart a customers c30 and most of it has been laying in the shop while the engine is at the machine shop. There’s also a spare c30 on the shelf of the shop but they chose to rebuild the engine with a spun bearing
A beautiful piece of racing/car/jdm history ❤
I enjoy getting to see the internal stuff on all different engines and I am always spotting things that cross from one brand to another because they all have things that are interesting or different as well and after a while you start noticing really bad ideas as well. The list of really bad ideas is long but sometimes they are stepping stones to make the whole package better and will evolve over time. The channel I do cars shows a lot of different engine designs so Stephen should check that out.
You and Kyle should do a merch collab!! That would be so sick
Such a neat motor! Love it when engineers get a chance to make something without needing to worry about optimizing cost and mass production. The NSX being a low volume halo car meant they could geek out and use some novel tech. I bet it was inspired by the dominant RA16 Formula 1 Turbo V6 engine made by Honda just a few years prior.
Supposedly when Honda Racing needed a motor for the 2004 JGTC season they just took a C series and threw a ton of boost at it. It ended up winning both the GT300 driver and team championships.
I love building engines and reading technical papers! Very well made engine.
That engine design is very nice.
F1 technology of the times
Aw ,that little V6 moving àll the air. Love it ❤
I can’t wait for more on the nsx it’s been too long
So cool Brent owns a NSX and has definitely earned the right to have it, there's other "car people" that own them but Brent is without a doubt one of the Original Honda guys still repping the Honda scene.
Thanks for that. That's a bucket list car for me, has been for years.
I still drive a 1988 hatch duel point. That was so cool to watch.
I love this! And I love the history and the technology behind these cars and these motors. And this is definitely not something we get to see very often! Thank you for bringing it to us!
What a beautiful Machine, Brent.
This was amazing. Loved every minute! Can't wait to see it rip.
Aluminum LSs DO have 6 bolt mains. As does Aluminum ford modulars 😉
All LS engines have 6 bolt mains
@@trickmytrailer that is incorrect. Most have just the 4 bolt mains without the horizonal side bolts like here = 2:15
The Iron blocks do have them also.
Which LS doesn’t have a 6 bolt main?
I typed aluminum twice in reference to modulars with 6 bolt mains. My bad.
But yes, all LSs have 6 bolt mains.
Can't wait till the next one , thank you Brent for showing us this engine and also for sharing ur knowledge and helping teach us , I absolutely love these videos , I only wish u could do a few videos on tuning( basics ),but I understand trade secrets, just wanted to say thank you so much for everything you do can't wait till the next one
god I love those engines it's the one Honda engine I always wanted to stuff in a S2000 and go drag racing it's been on my dream build list for the last 20 years now
Oh I've herd a clacking before lol. I ended up replacing my entire rocker assembly and she was saved, a pin popped out and I immediately shut it of and pulled the valve cover. First I noticed the bigger rocker arm was flipped up and the wifey found the dowel laying in the head. Long story short valve lash is very important, especially on d series. I will always remember valve lash after that incident.
that motor is awesome can't wait to hear it running
Thank you for showing this!
Heads are massive.
Very cool build. 😊
Hell Yeah Brothers LETS GOOOOOO👽👍✨ First time i seen inside 1, Thank you,ggz-
Brett ,You're always stepping to the next level,(no matter how the .Gov guys try to shoot the performance enthu. down). I'd also want to thank you for your commitment to family, & the work ethic you strive to invest in them,& all of us. PFI to the front, let's GO !!!!✌🤣💫
Pretty interesting to see the NSX motor getting built, Honda was definitely ahead of its time 👏
I'm an old school car guy, raised on muscle cars. I've never been a Honda fan but I found and fell in love with my 95 Subaru SVX and my 2006 EVO 9 which are the only 2 imports I've ever owned. I can't say what drew me to your channel but I've followed you on YT for years and your content has gotten better every time you put out a video. Thanks for the great content.
Thanks for sharing! So much cool technology. It's great to see.
So pumped to see Brent finally have the time to work on his own cars. The NSX is so legendary. I still remember the first time I rode in one when I was a little kid.
Nothing sounds like a C model Honda engine. My old accord had a c27a which is the same block as the 30, they just sound so good.
I wonder how much of this tech carried over from Honda's late 80s F1 engines?
A lot as senna was involved in the development!
@@pudermcgavin4462 . Not on the engine side. Senna helped tune the suspension.
Nice. My little 3 banger car flies . Who said you need big motors. Great job and dad.
always teaching us stuff.. telling us anything is possible.. this is why I started to build my fiat uno with a k20 awd set up.. thanks to Brent and all the lads at pfi for all the vids and help
I love ur honesty man. Always looked up to ya.
Nice to see you up and going Brent.
From the graybeard noprep Busa golf kart guy.
Doing Soichiro proud
The bolts to the sides of the caps/girdle is kind of a much better version of what SBC guys used to do to strengthen their caps.
LOVE THE PARADISE BLUE GREEN PEARL BG33P PAINT COLOR INTEGRA IN THE BACKGROUND !! MY FIRST INTEGRA GSR WAS A 95 THAT WAS THE SAME COLOR !! WHEN I WAS IN 4TH GRADE MY MOM WENT TO AN ACURA DEALER AND BOUGHT AN ACURA VIGOR..WHILE WE WERE AT THE DEALER THEY HAD A WHITE 95 NSX THERE THAT THE SALEMAN TOOK ME IN A RIDE FOR BC I GUESS HE EITHER SAW ME HOVERING OVER IT, EVEN AS A KID I WAS INAMORED WITH IT...OR HE WAS JUST TRYING TO CLOSE THE DEAL..EITHER WAY I LVE BEEN AN ACURA/HONDA GUY SINCE WAY BACK LOL
Crazy the knowledge you have brent. Never fails to amaze me. Your kiddos absorb it all like sponges
Been waiting about 3 years for some c series action on this channel
Love it when you work with your boys and they share your passion for cool tech.
What a time to be alive! Excited to see the NSX back together. Can't wait!
That is definitely an amazing design from Honda’s F1 Legacy. Great job Brent in bringing us into the technology of Honda.👍❤️🇨🇦
Gotta love Brent’s commitment to the Honda game!!
I've built a far few engines but that one was complected,good job brent
That was SO rad!! Thank you 🙏
reminds me of the days i spent assembling the 6G72 Mitsu Mill. very similar as its a DOHC - 3.0L v6. RTTTwin turbs, or VR4 3s. with active Aero, AWD, AWS, Active controlled suspension-muffler bypass built into the factory exhaust(tour/sport modes stiffens suspension damping And was noticeably louder in sport mode))
However titanium rods??!! that's wicked cool. ill say both the Honda NsX and Mitsubishi 3000gt way ahead of the times! NSX is a winner!!!
Heck yea! I can’t wait to see the nsx back! Brent really does have some awesome cars!
I learn so much watching this channel!!
its cool that on the c32b they didn't go the easy route and just stroke it. they actually made the bore bigger and kept the 78mm stroke.
I’m Australian. Been watching mighty car mods playing with 3cyl dyhatsu engines. It’d be crazy to see one of these heads fitted up. Side note, Honda parts actually fit dyhastu
I've always been curious about the inner workings of the C30. Thank you for that. And showing the engine section of the service manual! Pure gold, good sir.
Something about doing or watching engine/long block assembly seeing it all come together is very satisfying and calming. Thanks for sharing brother
One of these in the boosted boyz tube chassis civic would be sweet!!!
Ah this was a joy to watch. My first car was an Acura Legend Coupe with the c32a1 and a 6speed. I've been waiting to see one come thru the shop to watch you play with it. I've been thinking about snagging another for a new daily so I may need to pick your brain at some point. Love your knowledge and enthusiasm bro. See you at the Freedom 500.
What an uniqe engine, in its own way, thanks for sharing ❤
Really enjoy your videos Brent!! Keep teaching us all your knowledge and experience because that’s what keeps us going!! Word.. Up! Love the channel ✌🏼
Great video concept for an awesome engine! Those heads are frickin massive 🤯
Its a well engineered engine, like most Hondas! 78mm isn't that short, my 3.2 liter 911 only has 74.4 mm and it's considered pretty long.
Pretty cool the cam gear has 1-6 on it and that timing setup look’s tricky
