wow didn't know this was a thing!! I thought you guys just beefed out the heat or something. cool to know that there are water-cooling suits for your body rather than your computer components or alike lol
Had no idea this was a thing. I thought race cars just dealt with the heat. Only thing I would add, is to not point the return directly at the pump. Give the return water time to cool back down before being pumped out again.
That is super helpful I didn't know this was a thing thanks thats now something I'll add to the list when I build my mk2 escort I've designed to be able to do awd rally and gymkhana with quick suspension set up change and custom centre diff ratieo 😎
I’m a surgical technologist and one of the doctors I work with always wears a vest like this in surgery. So you guys might want to look into surgical equipment instead of ones specifically branded for racing
Feels like your torso is being hit with ice cold water... wild feeling while you're sitting on grid. The heat is literally no longer a factor. Could be 120 degrees but it doesn't even matter.
Hey Fielding! Long post incoming, worth the read though I think! I definitely have an easier solution for you! More compact, less weight, more reliable and doesn't need a resupply of cold material. The only downside would be that it requires more power. Look up Peltier cooling! (also known as TCT or TEC). What a peltier element does is the following: When you put a current trough it, one side becomes really cold and the other side becomes really hot. The temperature difference can be as much as 80c (170fahrenheit) This way, if you cool the hot side down to say 50c with a simple computer heatsink, the cold side can become as cold as -30c (-22f). If you pump water from the vest through a heatsink mounted to the cold side of the Peltier element you'll have infinite cooling! A few final notes: 1. These elements aren't super efficient. If you deliver 100W of power to it, it can soak up 80W of heat. Thus, you need to cool 180W of heat away on the hot side to cool 80W off your body with the cold side. You might have to put a few of them in series to get the cooling capacity you need. 2. If you reverse the current you flip the hot/cold side. That way you can run it as a heater system in the winter! I can help you out if you want, like generating a list of components you'll need. Pricing may vary, since I'm in The Netherlands. With the stuff you already have you can probably get away with a $300 price tag for all the components together.
There is a drink cooler for your car that runs on 12V and uses these Peltier coolers. It is not expensive. I was wondering if it could provide a ready made system of cool water simply by running a small copper coil inside the cooler and out to your cool shirt using the appropriate plastic tubing. If this would not work perhaps you could use the parts and a heat sink to accomplish the cooling.
Curious how the helmet blower part does for you? to much moisture/cold air and cause condensation? I am looking at doing this exact same thing but wanted to make sure the helmet part wasnt an issue on a hot day.
Since the cooler itself isn't pressurized and you don't fill it all the way, is there any risk that when you're taking the car sideways, the water might slosh around and get air bubbles in your pump?
@@oooohgoodone yess the hell they do. I bet on it there's even products that contain pig sweat. Just google pig sweat. 🤓Lowkey, I've done my research. Bro
Noise wise stationary? Does the cooler keep it minimum or can u hear the pump running constantly. Also does the cool shirt leave what ever you are wearing over it damp/wet?
Why not just leave the AC like @ChrisFix ? ;) I mean I know why people take them out (so did I) but if you want to go all this way for a cooling tshirt, AC seems like an easier solution ;)
@@TheSkattin That's not entirely true. Most drifters move radiators to the back anyway, so you could move both evaporator and condenser there. So this leaves only the compressor in the engine bay. And sure, you loose a few HP. But just crank up the boost by 1% and you're in the same place. You won't be able to wear this tshirt in a competition suite, so this won't fly for any serious level guys. And the rest could easily get away with having AC.
Yeahhhhhhh. It's generally bad for health when you lose consciousness from oxygen deprivation and crash a 100mph racecar into a brick wall. Condensed chunks of rapidly sublimating CO2 in a confined space? What could go wrong? 🤣
Motorcycle riders need this too!! Had a passenger pass out Saturday on a ride. No one injured but still scary stuff

little did you know you were going to win that event you were rushing to get this done for. awesome driving at that event btw.
loving the first-person POV camera setup!
Had no idea this was a thing! Good vid man keep em coming!
So cool, i knew you could make one at home.
No way I didn't know you had a youtube channel, awesome!

Wow I don't race or drift, but love your video's bro!!!..............👊👊👊
Hey man, nice build! Please use jack stands next time though...
Speak of the devil I was just looking into how to make one of these
Hey Fielding great video! can you please give me the link for the Y shaped 2 to 1 connectors you used to run two garments off one system, thank you!!
In Texas we use these in the summer for high pressure Zoom meetings
thanks for sharing! needed info on cool shirt 👊🏽💥

And just when you think racing stuff is expensive.... along comes surgical equipment.
Did you ever make a video of how you mounted the helmet blower to the cooler? How well did it work?
Nice video! I also have a DIY video to do this if you want another reference. The PN's for McMaster Carr are posted there.

Great video. How do you like the accusump system for drifting?
saved my motor! its cheap insurance I love it

do you have an idea for a cooling tshirt that ordinary people can wear? It's above 46°C here :/

Great production, thanks
Could you do a seperate video with the helmet part?
Cool shirt.
Curious how the helmet blower part does for you? to much moisture/cold air and cause condensation? I am looking at doing this exact same thing but wanted to make sure the helmet part wasnt an issue on a hot day.
Design a micro system that uses a c02 powered radiator to cool the circuit, so you could clip it to a belt and wear it around
Since the cooler itself isn't pressurized and you don't fill it all the way, is there any risk that when you're taking the car sideways, the water might slosh around and get air bubbles in your pump?
Better to use a positive displacement pump for that
Hyperdrive legend
Fix the sad silver car in the back ( I think it's an rx7 fb?)
Very nice. Any advice for shopping for the submersible water pump? Shopping online it's easy to buy too big or too small.
i left a link in my description of the exact one i used. Its the same one that comes with the pro cool-shirt system and I know it works great!
Or you can look up Ice Cooler Therapy. I’m disabled and use something similar but a lot cheaper box.
Do you notice the extra weight with the water sloshing around?
What did you use on the pump that allowed the hose to connect ?
Need source for insulated hose cover please.
should i put a coolshirt system in a 1st gen mustang?
I dont drive but id still want that cuz i sweat like a pig sometimes 😂
Pigs don't sweat though 🤔🤓

Also does the cool shirt leave what ever you are wearing over it damp/wet?
carlitos garcia you can hear pump but it’s very faint. I use something similar with a pad on it for spinal pain in bed daily.
Any updates for thr air fan installed?
what did you stuff into the pump opening to fit the tubing?
Curious on that too. I'm looking thru the parts list and can't quite figure it out ..
Those straps will not hold the cooler in place in the event of an accident
Why not just leave the AC like @ChrisFix ? ;) I mean I know why people take them out (so did I) but if you want to go all this way for a cooling tshirt, AC seems like an easier solution ;)
not really when you build a drift car and don't have room in the engine bay for A/C with turbo and other goodies.

Yea Good point if Your car has working ac, but I understand this a lot more than an ac system
Throw some dry ice in that thing.

Я тоже люблю что то смастерить. Но пока только из конструктора.
