Probably needed to access the interior for more cleaning or reassembly, with lift posts in the way you can't do that as the door hits. Y'all always think you're smarter than everyone when missing key elements...
The addition of Spoon and Austin has been a blessing. Spoon with the attention to detail and can literally do anything to a car, and Austin pumping almost 30 minutes of content. Keep the content coming boys!
I love seeing jimbos collection grow but I'd love to see the boys cars get some love on the channel. Throw a few bucks at ants e46 or SR refresh, maybe spoon has some projects that need loving. Get the boys on Brian's e46 to finish it! Just my opinion. Keep up the best content on RUclips boys
Spoon "don't forget your grommets" jimmy just moments earlier send the brake line through the axle bracket bear back 😂😂 seriously though make sure they see this man
As a honda fan from the 90s I love the ae86 k-swap build so much.... that k-swap with ITB and killer header at 10,000 RPM going sideways with smoke rolling off the back the car is as good asnit gets.......... back road beast$$$$
Nice...As many bays that you guys' re-paint I'm surprised y'all haven't invested in a bead blaster yet. You could dedicate a corner of the back "storage" space and build a cheap 2x wooden frame room and staple heavy-duty plastic for the walls & false ceiling. The good thing about glass or plastic bead mediums is that you can strain/filter it and re-use it and it's nonabrasive to metal. The booth could also be used for Spoon's small priming/painting jobs and not have to haul the cars home.
I don’t watch a decided build I watch every video since LZ finally convinced jimmy to fucking do RUclips I’ve seen so many different characters over the years damn we go way back my G
so stoked to see how far the 86 has come, i dont know what your plans with it are when its done.. But i'd love to see a retro 80s style race livery on it
2:23 there is a tiny bit of red showing when spoon is taking the front apart it’s on a support bracket it looks like bolting to the edge of fender. I’ve been trying so hard to spot any red since they did such a good job hiding it all lol but I see just 2 spots so far lol
Hey Jimmy. FYI FD brake calipers are a direct bolt old swap if you want a nicer/more modern looking calliper. Also looks like you got an aluminium bonnet which is rare.
I think one of the smartest things a detail company could do is sponsor this channel. It's so funny seeing them use purple power and tuff stuff to clean so many of the cars and bays. Meguiars, griots, anyone get on it!
Motive power brake bleeder is the move. You can pressurize the whole system dry to confirm no leaks then power bleed the whole car with one person. Saved me serious headaches.
I've been trying to spot the red but apart from a tiny bit on the underside of the bonnet, she's had a really thorough spray job. Like wow in the trans tunnel under the windshield cowling? everywhere....
If you ever feel like the brakes are too hard to press, you can redrill the pushrod mounting spot on the pedal. Oh the chasebays kit forces you to do it, so if these feel too hard you're stuck with it.
You have a sandblaster jimmy. Use that far the nooks and crannys that you can't sand. Gets edges and corners much better and just use air to blow it off
Yo Jimmy did you hit up Collete and see if she wanted those Turbo 2 parts for her new parts car FC that she just bought ? If u haven't thats a good idea !
you dont really get the reason behind the offset mastercyl :D its offset to use this bracket that allows the 6:1 ratio, this makes the brakeforce more like OEM ish.
I know you’ve been buying up cars lately, but man I’d love to see your take on a Mitsubishi Starion/Chrysler Conquest. Maybe SR swap it? But I mean the body of the car is sweet and it’s rear wheel drive
You should definitely try to get sponsored with the auto stacker lifts so that way you don’t have to keep your lifts occupied just by stored cars and can make use of the lifts again. But keep up with the amazing content, love watching you guys!
It’s wild to me how many FDs you’ve had and this is your first fc. I’ve had a bunch of fcs and the FD is a dream car. 😂 300zxz32 with lambo Diablo headlights is the ultimate pop up car.
After you remove rust on cars without galvanized steel, use bluing chemicals used in firearms. It will rust proof at metal level. There are different methods, rust bluing is best, and hardest on large parts since you have to rust the surface and boil it before wire wheel or 0000 steel wool, multiple times.
From seeing what’s going on with your rear end from a previous video I would say the preload on the pinion gear is your issue it’s binding on the ring gear I’ve had it happen on a few straight axles where it’s fine in reverse but feels like your hitting a brick wall going forward I would take off your rear diff cover and watch the gears as you try to move it forward if you see your pinion gear have any play your preload is off or you need new bearings
Jimmy, next time you are pressure washing, be sure to let everyone hold the pressure washer, or else, “you are paying people to watch you work” also be sure to empty your entire shop just get on a lift to be able to do a simple task under your car 😁👍🏻
Both are looking great. Imo i think u should flock or wrap the door cards in the 86, also dont forget the gasket for the new booster on the 86 to seal off the firewall
DONT TOSS THE ENGINE HARNESS OUT, it’s got the wiper motor stuff with it!
bump so they see this
Another bump cos Jimmy Main can be a derp
Smart
Has a lift. Parks in lift. Uses jack and jackstands. Welcome to Jimmyoakes youtube channel
Just jimmy O things
Captain Hard Park has no equal.
He is also paying people to watch him wash a car.
@@therealboofighter what? 😂

More of this fr love seeing the homies come up tooo
I love the fact spoon and ant is working on the same project at the same time, the amount of knowledge ant is going to pick up is insane
Man Jimmy your best upgrade from 2022 is Spoon. That guy is over the top with the attention to detail. Killer team right now.
Spoon needs the Shop Manager title. Dude is made for it and Jimmy could use the extra bandwidth to focus on the business and his driving.
Jimmy is the most modest out of all the you tubers he makes it feel like you can build your own car
Then you forget he's a literal mechanical engineer
Watching his videos motivates me to keep going on my own cars for sure
@@cameronclark2205 *chemical engineer
Please stop tommy f yeah from threatening Rundik's little brother and mom
@@macbook802 shut up and stop trying to get random people involved, that’s between Tommy and rudnik no one else
Good morning boys
It’s a very good morning
Gooood murningggg
Morning? For me its 7:40PM(Latvia)
Top of the mawning👽🛸
Goood mornoon
I’m extremely excited for this build. Both of them actually, being able to watch you and Taylor Ray dig in to one of my dream cars is awesome.
Jimmy making life goals seem achievable
Spoon and Jimmy doing the show and tell schtick now, I totally approve of this. You've got a great crew here.
You guys are so lucky to have have a bunch of homies chillin in the shop together like this, life goals, don't take it for granted 💚💚
8:03 Stuff like this is why I love watching power washing/pressure washing videos. That one little bracket part was satisfying AF. Lol.
I have an FC RX7 shell too but im K swapping it. Super excited to see how it turns out!
Looks like you got some good content. Imma que up a video or two thanks!
big fan of the music mixup while power washing
13:30 just love brian on the videos he’s like this person who just is like a bro who loves to teach friends about these things 😊
omg 8:02 ... amazing. Stoked to see the Oakes crew kicking ass as usual
Props to Spoon and Ant for pulling the wire harness through the firewall, then messing with Jimmy about cutting it.
I learned how to drive stick in an 87 rx7. These vids make my soul happy.
Bro got the whole Initial D Fleet!!! That’s so sick!!!! The jdm legends cheers bruv!
Jimmy's face when Ant and Spoon surprise him is great. He's like a proud dad that didn't realize his kids could do so well.
The attention to detail spoon brings to the builds is a super nice touch 🤘🏻🤘🏻 plus it gives Brian a break from the bodywork lol
Spoon "don't forget your grommets" jimmy just moments earlier send the brake line through the axle bracket bear back 😂😂 seriously though make sure they see this man

Spoon is the man. Crazy attention to detail and very skilled
I’m gonna need more Ant commentary lol. Glad he’s more comfortable in front of the camera.
He's the Bautista of Oakes Garage 😏
Great episode! Love the ones with more techy stuff. Austin is finding his flow now for sure 👌
The attention to DETAIL! You’re making me want to put some TLC on the FC
Need to do a submail video again soon love seeing what funny stuff you guys get sent
Progress on 2 cars during the same video? Love that! 86 is gonna be the sickest track car ever and the FC is shaping up to be a 2nd contender.
Nice...As many bays that you guys' re-paint I'm surprised y'all haven't invested in a bead blaster yet.

I literally love your guys vibe and everything you do, you guys are living my dream. If you need another person in the shop, hit me up😂
Upvote for Jimmy to mount the interior door armrests to the doorcard deletes
Austin being a filmer is so nice, great addition
so stoked to see how far the 86 has come, i dont know what your plans with it are when its done.. But i'd love to see a retro 80s style race livery on it

Gotta get the hatches, the RX7s, the 86 and Steph’s Miata all doing a wink together
Hell yeah Thank you guys so much. I really appreciate it can’t wait to hang it in my garage 😁
Can someone tell me the name of the song he uses for the outro please
Big ups to Ant lately, he’s been killing it
Chase bays stuff looks awesome - but I'VE always had problems with leaks
Hey Jimmy. FYI FD brake calipers are a direct bolt old swap if you want a nicer/more modern looking calliper. Also looks like you got an aluminium bonnet which is rare.
Top of my list in YT Oaks is under rated content master. He should be at 2mill subs
Drinking Game - Have a shot everytime Jimmy says "Boom" 😝😝

Looks like the classic job site. 1 guy working 4 guys watching
I've been trying to spot the red but apart from a tiny bit on the underside of the bonnet, she's had a really thorough spray job. Like wow in the trans tunnel under the windshield cowling? everywhere....
Chase bays stuff is sick you'll love it! The FC in white is so cool, never see them in white!
the 86 interior just screams 80's manufacturer backed racecar and i fucking love it. absolutelty killed it boys, keep'er goin!
I love how the car is on jack stands in front of an empty lift 😂
You should look into buying a hotsy. The super hot water that comes out makes life so much easier than using a normal power washer
Thank god for spoon, James has painted more cars in the last 6 months than the last 6 years haha
Don't run brake lines through holes in brackets on rear axle. If you ever have to remove the axle. You have to do brakes too
All you need now is a black r32 gtr and paint the 86 panda and you’ll have all of the initial d cars
If you ever feel like the brakes are too hard to press, you can redrill the pushrod mounting spot on the pedal. Oh the chasebays kit forces you to do it, so if these feel too hard you're stuck with it.
Hot Boi engine bay, and caddy white for the body!!!!!!!!!! Can't forget setting on some works
Legit re-watching this series because I'm looking to import a Turbo FC 😍
you have to admit these 80's cars have such an interesting energy and.... they're super fun to drive. Not fast or competitive but just nice you'll see
So Jim's a Big 80s guy now love it! Maybe one day he'll even get a classic
You have a sandblaster jimmy. Use that far the nooks and crannys that you can't sand. Gets edges and corners much better and just use air to blow it off
The team is on 🔥. Motivation ✌🏽
Yo Jimmy did you hit up Collete and see if she wanted those Turbo 2 parts for her new parts car FC that she just bought ? If u haven't thats a good idea !
Gonna enjoy watching the process of this car🖤
The outro song still hits as hard as it did the first time I heard it
Something about watching a car get stripped down never ever gets old ❤
That garage behind the merch area should be turned into a painting booth
Y’all should do a Spoon take over series, where Spoon is the host and the project is a 90s Honda.
the 86 build is so satisfying with all the parts you chose🫶🏽
you dont really get the reason behind the offset mastercyl :D its offset to use this bracket that allows the 6:1 ratio, this makes the brakeforce more like OEM ish.
Also, you would not ever loose all your breaks. You would always have at least one on each axle. 2 kinds. Dual diagonal and front rear split
I know you’ve been buying up cars lately, but man I’d love to see your take on a Mitsubishi Starion/Chrysler Conquest.
Maybe SR swap it? But I mean the body of the car is sweet and it’s rear wheel drive

24:43 “ohhhhhhh that’s sus” I love my bois energy 😂😂😭😭😭
Jimmys new favorite word is “foundation”
When you put the harness back in, do a bulkhead wire harness kit
It’s wild to me how many FDs you’ve had and this is your first fc. I’ve had a bunch of fcs and the FD is a dream car. 😂
300zxz32 with lambo Diablo headlights is the ultimate pop up car.
Awesome work guys! Watching from the Phillipines!
Brother super stoked on the new builds! Loving those pop ups!
Nicely done
Wide body over fenders on the fc will be dope with some factory side skirts an the car in white with some nice rims good suspension 👌
SO HYPED for you working on another Mazda!
Zoom-Zoom Gang. :D
With the harness, why not cut it at the bulk head a fit a bulk head harness plug, therefore you can unplug if needs be in the future
Jimmy and gang y'all rock! Peace

Fc really do be one of them bucket list cars! Cant wait to see it done
You can't see a red layer or any red dust particles. That car was VIN swapped.
Nice music for the video. 👍
Like the white RX better than the yellow. And 89-90 240sx is the ultimate popper. Just my opinion. Shout out to the gang tho!!
big sanding/prepping crew makes it much easier
COOL IDEA: Turn the factory wheels into 3 piece wheels for the car
I’m more of a watch whatever video jimmy puts out kinda content guy I love it all
Jimmy... You need the PartshopMAX rear lower link traction brackets to go with your aftermarket links.
They stop wheel hop when you lower the car
From seeing what’s going on with your rear end from a previous video I would say the preload on the pinion gear is your issue it’s binding on the ring gear I’ve had it happen on a few straight axles where it’s fine in reverse but feels like your hitting a brick wall going forward I would take off your rear diff cover and watch the gears as you try to move it forward if you see your pinion gear have any play your preload is off or you need new bearings

Both are looking great. Imo i think u should flock or wrap the door cards in the 86, also dont forget the gasket for the new booster on the 86 to seal off the firewall
Excited for this build!
Gonna have to make a hoodie with “I ❤️ 80s junk”
In before Saucygoattits
