Benny's Custom Works brings you everything automotive!
Weekly Episodes right here on RUclips, as well as the shop with new & used performance parts for most Japanese makes and models.
Benny makes this stuff look like a walk in the park. Please consider the risk factors and talk to a qualified mechanic, as well as a psychologist, if you’re thinking of attempting anything you’ve seen on the show.
Take into consideration your safety, the safety of others, as well as your vehicle’s best interests- warranty, etc.
Unless you’re trained & qualified to do so, we don’t recommend modifying your vehicle in any way. Stickers don’t add HP unless installed correctly.
Watching a pro at work isn't boring. Enjoyed
WasabiCars thanks for watching mate.
I really enjoy doing this kind of, basic maintenance/improvement work to modified cars, even more than doing the mods themselves lol.
Sometimes watching the basics is a great learning tool, I know its been a while since I've been able to work on my own car 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Ha ha "Infinity Boosts" love it
Scrolling through youtube, crap, crap, more crap, Benny and a 180sx *CLICK* 👍
Love the in depth guide! They are really good cars to drive when taken care of. Looking forward to more vids on the 180 especially ones on making it reliable
like wise mate keep it up the nice work we watching and learning from you Benny's Custom Works is the future .......lets go
Enjoyed a lot! You just got a new subscriber mate
Good professional tips
hey bud , I just started making videos on my 240sx come check it out . thanks man!
"... some things just gotta be done." Well said!
Lots of good tips, I always wonder why people don’t use hard lines for the waste gates
XOZ Industries I have seen them but if you do it that way your solenoid needs to be mounted on the engine . I prefer braided AN teflon line like Raceworks etc, still flexible but much more durable than silicone or rubber.
Thanks Benny
i just love the s13
Good stuff. I like these vids.
what up man ! I just stared a doing car vlogs on my channel come check it out ! I really would appreciate it!
Wish i had a 180!!!
If the rocker gasket is leaking don't change the plugs until you change the gasket, most likely oil is leaking into the plug holes.
Luke Collins plug holes were dry as :D
so, the 8:54 washer material, there are two main reasons why there are aluminum, fiber or or copper composite washers, they are equality important and then there are many more.
Expansion rate of the material: you do not want to have big expansion differences between the washer and the material it is sealing.
Reactants: so you don't want for the fluid (oil, engine coolant, brake fluid, other fluids) to start a chemical reaction with the washer.
if you want to get even further in this you can easy find the history why Toyota made the "SUPER LONG LIFE COOLANT"
last time i was this early, benny was still working on daihatsu mira with mcm guys.
What didn’t they think of on the AU falcon? They are incredible things
useless toys , S-Chassis
Don’t worry about powder coating, wrinkle red rattle can job will do the trick 😉
😂 good content my man 👍🏽
how's it gong bud ? I just stared making vlogs on my channel come check it out thanks!
It is always surprising to see what other countries require for registration. I do kinda wish that we has any kinda of safety inspection required. Many of the cars I see regularly in the States are literal death traps from neglect and plain ignorance
Mike Louder , none at all? I never knew that, bloody hell.
@@banjopete Depends what US state you're in. Some have full safety inspections, some just inspect emissions, some have nothing.
Here in Belgium we have to go to the inspection every year. If the car fails, you have 14 days to fix it otherwise you can't drive anymore.
Be very careful what you wish for
@@banjopete Most states it is literally no safety inspection. Because it is a state by state issue most only care about emissions and only a select few will do any safety inspection. The last emissions check I did was a joke too. Plugged into OBD, no codes and done
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_inspection_in_the_United_States
Stolen then parked up for 12mths. Gian needs to give the 180sx some love i think
Hoping you can pump out some more videos because of lockdown 🤙🏽
Tay tay 😍
Love me a Silver type x got one my self but I got a s13 front
It could be a 95 Type X. But it's not what most people think of a Type X (late 96 to late 98). Red top SR is the give away. Looks like just a "Type X" bumper.
Yes but that’s not the factory red
People have to remember for most mechanics life is at least 70% boring stuff, 20% fun stuff and at least 10% Bullshit cause by owners.
I don't know if I've ever had a sump plug that had a gasket like that. But, I'm in the USA and ya gotta crank them down to make sure they don't leak.
Yo where do you get your washer kits from? I've never changed my washers before on any of my cars and should probably do that...
mans alans the coper washer kits are from my local industrial suppliers , ebay should have similar kits.
@@BennysCustomWorks cheers mate.
Is this Tay-Tay? I just recognize the blue coil packs is all
Late answer i know, but Tay Tay was parted out, this car got some of the parts like that and the coilovers
Literally watched this the other day and then forgot to disconnect the battery when changing the oil filter on my 180, what fuse have i blown and where is it? not a whole lot of clear information on the internet from my search
Quick question, how often should you change plugs on a turbo motor?
john Treloar if they’re iridium 100k, standard style , 20k
Hey, do you have a link for the box of copper crush washers. I had a search on spares box but nada
Giles Manyweathers wow $59, didn’t Benny say $12
If you own a 180 it is automatically defective
It is if u drive at the wrong times & that's for most jdm sports cars, I drive a wide body 180 with stupid dish & straight pipes everyday & I've never been pulled over in the 5 + years I've owned it "touch wood", I stick too the only drive it in peak hour traffic rule 😉 I'd rather those hours than a defect

What did you put on the battery before welding? the thing that looked like short jumper leads?
poochey1 it’s anti surge protector , it’s quicker than disconnecting the battery and means you don’t need to reset the clock/ radio.
What are you spraying the welds with to keep the from rusting? Both inside and outside of the car.
TheTaXUS just good quality black paint. We really don’t have rust issues in Australia
Song ID?
Was that bolts missing off the sub-frame? I know that's normal for a crusty S chassis though lol.
Adam Randell just exhaust hanger bolt.
When welding on a car with live power, should you remove the battery power and ECU to prevent damage?
I believe he hooked a surge suppressor across the battery (you can see it in the sequence after the ground clamp on the rear strut tower).
You can use an isolator, pretty sure Benny was using one.
Yes if not using a surge protector I’d highly recommend disconnecting the battery
whats that box you put on the battery when you were welding?
deane anderson it stops voltage spikes instead of disconnecting the battery
Isint Australia on lockdown right now?
4/11nightnheaven businesses who cannot work from home are still allowed to operate, these videos are also 6-8 weeks old, we’ve been filming 3-4 episodes per week for a while incase we do have total lock down.
What plug number and gap did you put on the spark plugs? Cheers.
Ant S BKR6E .8mm gap, could also use BKR7E if it was on E85 or BCPR7ES if you want more tension on the ignition coil spring, basically the same plug but 3mm longer
Benny's Custom Works Does the effect of having more coil spring tension increase its efficacy in its ignition or make it more reliable? I've been having weird blowout issues on fullboost (15psi) on my 200kw 180sx and couldn't fix until i ran the smallest gap i could on the bkr7e (around 0.020?) but on cold idles i would run into misfires. Do you think it could be related to the spark plug gaps themselves or should i be looking into the actual coils(splitfires), given i have no history of its health and whatnot.
RoGG W sounds like either the coils are lazy or you have a power or grounding issue.. if it’s an S13 setup check how many volts you have at the coil connector, also check all your grounds etc and battery terminals. Can you check battery voltage during ignition break down?
Benny's Custom Works Voltage on the coils seemed fine last time i checked. Not too sure how to check voltage while I'm under full load though i will double check the grounds etc. Worded my question wrong i actually get engine stalling issues when cold (revs like to drop till it almost stalls) which I'm assuming is from the very aggressive gap i have just to temporarily fix it, i find it odd that if a coil or two is failing i would get misfires or stutters in general but under full load feels like I'm hitting a rev/boost limiter.
@@slicker9996 funnily enough your problem sounds exactly like the problem im having, im going to go through all the wiring because the only thing it could be
When i got a tune everything ran perfect but when they pulled it back into the shop after testing it started stalling randomly cold and hot. For some reason when the thermo fans turned on it would idle without an issue but as soon as you give it a little throttle it would start doing the same thing again.
😍😍😍😍😍
nice profile picture nerd
Jake Petersen mate, get out of here. Get back in the queue
Does anyone know what wheels those are on the 180?
astroboy308 regamasters , 17x9 + 22 or there abouts
I saw this car on my way home from work the other night, I was in the Silver Golf GTI wassup Gian lol
That dumpipe is asking for loose nuts and gasket leaks
Can understand ppl throwing LS engines in these. But getting a 5.7-6.3 litre engineered in Australia to replace a 1.8 litre 4cyl sounds unlikely...
Most come with the SR20 in Oz.
You can get pretty much anything on the road if you have it tested and engineered.
@@zappy7393 That's kinda a shame. The CA sounds much better
@@zappy7393 But aren't they the 200SX with t h e 2 litre?
Rocket cover
Where are you getting EUREKA ASSORTMENTS kits for $12 :|
Chris Smith local industrial suppliers.
@@BennysCustomWorks :0 We are getting ripped, our local charges 30....
Listening to the car laws in AUS makes me sad for you... It appears they'd rather have compliant ants driving than free humans
It's the money. The government are addicted to revenue raising.
It’s really not that bad. Some other countries are ridiculously lenient. Somewhere in the middle ground (ie queeensland or New Zealand laws) is ideal imho.
I'm not too fussed, I've always owned modified cars and never run into any issues, it means we have a culture of having well looked after and well cared for and presented cars. I think the positive spin off from that outweigh the negatives.
......Cresta?
Semitones more coming . Track is closed ( understandably ) so no racing :(
@@BennysCustomWorksNo worries, was actually a tongue in cheek dig at the 5-0 attention the Cresta got last year.
Subaru’s reliable 😂😂😂
I do love how Alan and Benny jock Subaru, makes you think they were being paid. Funny that the most common broke ass car here on the side of the highway is: Subaru. Subaru small engines are the most poorly engineered and unreliable pieces of shit I've ever had the displeasure of servicing. Also, an EJ20 is better than a 2JZ said no one, ever.
Werdna Dracip the ej207 specifically is a great engine, so many engineering changes over the standard ej20, but the ej25 on the other hand , now there’s an engineering compromise .
Benny's Custom Works what models got the ej207?
Subaru and reliable do not belong in the same sentence. 😂😂
