BIG Turbo Change! eBay GT45 Polish from rough aluminium!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Step by step, how to process of polishing a turbo that started as a cast aluminum housing. Hours of wet sanding and buffing took this turbo from looking like rough concrete to a mirror finish polish!
I cant believe how good that housing and valve covers came out man great job 🤘🇺🇸
Thanks my dude!
My name is Roger Fleury (pronounced Flurry)And you’re welcome!
Shin Sho Everyone needs help now and again.
You rock!!!
Very good person Rj seeing others send not just this guy helpful things but other youtubers, to make work easier gives a guy courage to keep on doing what he does best. Glad to know there are still good people in the world! Thanks buddy.
Much Respect and Good Karma 👍 Mr. Scooter
Good job Roger!! Helped a dude out
It's fun when you find a new channel and watch there older videos in my spare time beats the hell out of watching regular TV
Some of our old videos are not good haha but I appreciate you watching them!
Our big homie has passed 50k almost to 55k on the way to 100k. 💪💪🤙🤙🤙🤜🤛 CONGRATS my guy. You deserve it for NEVER GIVING UP. Like some others do.
Thanks man!!! It’s a good feeling but we’ve got a long ways to go!
@@GARAGEIdiotS I know it seems that way right now but, trust me when the jevette is up and running to produce fun/crazy content then the channel will start to blow up more and more. People always looking for a escape and watch people rip and have fun. Then you can get back on the bug and the channel will catch up to where it BELONGS. JUST DONT EVER GIVE UP.
Okay man!!! Again, thank you so much for your constant support, it really does help and means a lot!
A thing of beauty is a joy forever,,,the jeepvette is a handsome brute now with some bling enhancements
They say when it rains, it pours. Seems like that applies to good things too. Your subs are on the rise, the projects are coming along fantastically, and your finances are doing well. I am more than happy for you. As always, I appreciate the content. The polishing turned out stellar. Very nicely done. Thanks for the content.
That turbo turned out great Preston as did the valve covers. Looks a ton better than the paint on it. Always look forward to seeing that you have posted another video. Glad to see your housing dreams are coming to fruition. Enjoy it while being scared to death. Lol
Wellll GAAA DANG that looks good! Well done brutha! Shout out to today's sponsor, RJF SCOOTER for making this episode a possibility 😉😎.
A suggestion you can move the fans to the front of the radiator... Back the radiator as close to the motor with some tolerance... That way you will have the space for the headlamps as well with minimal modifications🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
For the VW body tilt up - look at S&W Funny Car Rear Body Mounting Frame for inspiration 👍🏼
Someone's been spending on the editing software. 😂👍
Great work Preston, keep it up bro. 😎
Really?? Haha it’s still all on my phone! Glad you noticed a difference!!
@@GARAGEIdiotS Really? 😳 Teach me Senpai. 👍
What program you using?!? 🤷
Splice by GoPro app on a iPhone 10 haha
@@GARAGEIdiotS Damn you Apple people and your fancy apps, wish they were Android! _"angry old man fist shaking"_
Nice,love polished metal,I put a layer of hi temp clear coat to reduce polishing, all I do is wipe it clean
Shiny boi looking good. Nice new intro Preston!
Wow Preston that shit looks nice bro. Your doing great bud. That damn jeep vet is gonna be kick ass.
So glad you are doing ok financially at the moment. This Was an awesome video. If you keep to this format you are on a winner.
It looks really good I like that polished look.
Dude , that was a great job u did on that compressor 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Wow that is amazing! Cool trick! Thanks for sharing!!!
Looks awesome dude...... I like the way you do things on the cheap! !!
Thanks for another great video. Your hard work is paying off. Can't wait till your at 100k
Me watching how to polish a turbo when I don’t have a turbo...
Haha well now you need to get one!!
GARAGE IdiotS and not tell my husband just let a turbo turn up at the house 😂🤷🏼♀️
Perfect haha
But, now u can use the technique to polish anything u want.
Well we can watch you polishing my turbo any time😁😁😁🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Congratulations on your house!!!
Awesome, that's me with my rocker covers now. Love the editing as well
Love the intro. Thanks Preston for your hard work.
THAT ENDING WAS A REAL SATISFIED MOMENT I DO ALWAYS ENJOY THIS VIDEO'S MAN KEEP IT UP PRESTON ✌
The new intro is nice! Style ...you got it.
Thanks for sharing! 👊🍻🐈🔥
Came out awesome. Thanks for another great idea.
What I've found turns out best is stopping at 800 grit and working the compound hard and hot. It comes out liquid smooth.
I’m digging the new intro 👍👍
Looks great Preston 👊
Rock on brother
Nice, that looks way better!
Congrats on getting a house!
You could try your hand at anodizing the aluminum. It is mostly an etch using drain-o, then an acid bath, the dye, with a finish if you want.
that looks awesome compared to the concrete! good job man!
I like the new intro the show is pretty good but I like the new intro
Yay new intro! Also that looks so much cleaner! Nice work my dude.
to get the black stuff off between polish layers you can also use Mineral Spirits - works great and cheaper than your Truck Stop stuff
love the new intro!
5:24 "Natural Idiot" the natural documentaries channel coming soon. 🤣
Great job as usual
New intro - nice!
This is such an amazing video thank you for sharing your experience i can never get enough ❤
I remember when Preston had 54.2K subs.
Hahahaha
Looks great dude 👍
Bring back the OG glitter!
Love the intro!! Turbo looks real nice.
Well, I enjoy your videos. Keep it up man ⚘⚘
I'm way to lazy to do that to my turbos but very cool to watch
Love the new Intro set.That all looks good polished.Why not just wrap the exhaust on the other side too,and continue under to keep heat in?PLEASE,while the engines uncovered,do a Valve Lash check.No sense in all this work and drop a valve because the....
great video
Good job dude ✌️
That turned out good 👍👍🇨🇱
Like the intro.
Getting my gt45 dropped off today
Good stuff man loved it!
a gloss or flat black might look good in the pitted valleys...
As far as the radiator goes, why not go with the 1 you have, make some trim rings to push the headlights out of the grill. The wheels poke out, go with it have the headlights poke out
You are amazing. Learning a lot. Great video. Thanks 🌺🌺👌🏽
Like the new opening it’s short so you can add stuff later
Fire it up !!!!!! 🔥 🍿
Nice! Speaking of Ebay turbos, can you make a moonscape valve cover for BB Kyle's MR2? He mentioned getting tired of the pink so maybe a "moon tune" cover would be good promotion.
When did he mention that? We’ve been talking about it
@@GARAGEIdiotS Recent video, I think with the engine back in the car.
@@GARAGEIdiotS also a converse style for Sho Nuff ,have the star for oil cap... sweet
Nailed it
Almost at 60k my dude👍
Yea!!!
Excellent end product. Patience is the name of the game. Check out Built Official Fatsun project, they have a lift system for their van cab. Could be a start of ideas for the bug.
That’s where I got the idea, love those guys
Wing it man!
Right on
Hey man Kevin here from Australia. Wow you did a nice job on the turbo but you should re-do the value covers you have a standard to keep up to now. Yes really you do. 🤪
Q your bench publisher whats the power of it . I think its measured in watts.
Anyhoo thankyou for sharing man great video.
✌ Peace. 🤪
Nice job....new logo?...... try to fix 1 prodject at a time, but nearer the homestretch on the chevett, its maybye ok with beginning a little bit on the MR2Bug.....
Looking good keep grinding away 🤘🏻🇺🇸🦅
Thanks my dude!
@preston. How about adding a bracket to tilt the bottom of the grill forward a couple inches for space /
Question...Now I fancy myself a real technical kinda guy so I come up with very odd questions because I look at the small stuff. since you're an experienced metal worker do you think there is even a fraction of a percent of the castings total durability is effect at all when you grind down the casting line? To smooth out the housing?
The casting will be fine as long as you wear white gloves during the process
@@theravedaddy dink lol but creative 👍😂
Nice
PRESTONE IT ME YOUR LANDLORD - I LIKE NEW INTRO, WHEN YOU FINISH BUG I WILL SUBSCRIBE THANKS
Hello will this be the same process to remove a turbo logo for clean finish?
I only saw You welding the left exhaust manifold which leads to the turbo charger. What happens to the right one?
Is that a two tone paint job I'm seeing on the door an quarter?!👍🤘
When you buff....try not to put your fingers in any holes if it slips or kicks the part back it will break your finger
Good point! I had the opposite idea haha I thought if I hold this thing really tight like this it won’t slip or kick haha but I now see that could be very bad
I seen it happen a few times at my last shop we made an buffed two bars for pontoon boats and I seen some wicked accidents caused from holding part wrong an trying to go to fast but yea lol
I've got the same eBay special. Haven't fitted it yet 😂
Supposedly it works really good
AH I JUST CAME FROM EATING LUNCH
damn you got better at editing
Thanks man! Glad you can see a difference !
@@GARAGEIdiotS no problem i'm glad how things upgrade yet still the same
WOW.
Could you not dip the housing?
The turbo looks great!
Why can't you just extend the the grill out with brackets off the bumper to give you the room you need.
Where do you get the nylon wire wheels from? I've been searching over here in the UK without any luck. Cheers
Pretty much any tool store here ....
Perhaps you can contact a store or retailer directly.
i would say clean up the 'engine bay' off the jeep before you do any more major dressing up and stuff. It will give you a better vision about what needs to happen.
😉👍 Looks Good, I watched it... kind of a boring video for me... I mean I've only known how to polish out aluminum for like 20 something years!
🤔 I thought you were going to use that radiator and save money... ☝️😉 I suggestion a triple flow performance tri-five Chevy radiator 55 - 57 Chevy that is.... oh, I believe there are similar Dimension and widely available, double-check the measurements.... I'm not a Jeep guy typically LOL. But you might be able to get a better radiator at a cheaper price with a tri-five radiator, since they're so widely available rather than a special Jeep LS swap, thing... 😉👍 Just my suggestion... 😁 Can't wait for the next one, maybe they'll be running by then LOL. Fist bump buddy 👊😜... oh wrong Channel, LOL
you should have powder coat it
Wash it and paint the frame black.
Like share and subscribe for woosh woosh noises
First? Lol. I’m sure I’ll enjoy the video
It will be better to use a file first on this bump wich one was on a middle
Nice Junk
Anything past 400 grit is both a waist of time and money.
Never been first 😂😂
If you do paint it again I vote bubblegum pink with purple glitter.
There just aren't enough bowling ball paint schemes in the automotive world these days.
