I have a Mazdaspeed that I am working on, slowly gettting there. Got it at 151k, upgraded engine, got it painted and got wheels and and now I’m saving up for the body kit and upgrading transmission later
I've got full faith in you Matt and Hannah. I've been watching for at least 18 months now and even though not everything has been to my choice I can appreciate what you are doing. Love the variety and style and work and repairs on your channel. Top marks from me mate...
watching ur old videos, the simple dream is to fix, rebuild cars and work for Porsches, currently in school working toward my goals. love ur vids mat thanks for keeping me happy though my rough times
nothing like any other channell though. buying write offs and not repairing them for profit, but modifying them instead. and never in half measures full send😂 love it mate refreshing to see someone doing something different with the salvage stuff👌👌
Look at it this way, you've saved an otherwise scrap car from being scrapped and given it a whole new purpose in life. Going Rocket Bunny was what it cried out for. It's going to look epic once complete.
I can see this looking absolutely awesome when it's done. Please paint/wrap it a mad bright yellow!! 💛 Always look forward to your videos you're smashing it mate! 💪
@@dometr9254 for heavily modified cars - yes indeed. Especially when the cars structure/body is modified from its original factory/safety standard. I believe the last winner was quoted over £10k for the Mustang insurance (had no choice but to sell it) - age played a huge part in that of course 😁
It is expensive here in the UK. Though doesn't it depend on where you live and the area. Insurance is unbelievable here. Hopefully this thing won't get straightpiped 😆. An upgraded one would do. The insurance on VW group cars are so expensive because of the high amount of theft. And it's rising. I'm thinking that our cars will be worth less than the insurance cost
I’m in the “what on Earth” camp BUT i have faith and am intrigued as to what comes next and the colour you have planned. An orange would be good. Something very different. Keep up the great content Mat.
Really love how your car is coming bro...love the effort and the rocket bunny kit...your video was detailed enough for me ...I'm a big fan of how these cars looks with the widebody ....can't wait for the rest of the videos on this car to come...
Do you know what I really shouldn’t like this but there is something about how bold it is that you find yourself egging you on. I know as rough as it looks now by the time it’s finished it will look amazing(even without a front number plate ha ha).
Great work as usual fella and just keep showing people that you can do this stuff yourself cos i bet its gonna look amazing. Cover the glass up any time you use a grinder on a car, i learnt the hard way years ago mate.
My dream car, even if it’s not the fastest, or most expensive. All the money in the world and it’d be my first purchase. My number 1 life goal is to own this and this series puts a massive smile on my face
They certainly didn't make Japanese cars for the hell of it, lol. Which is why they're so popular in Tokyo and are built for mods and drifting and showing off at car shows and so on. Plus, the BRZ's, the GTR's and Honda models are meant for this kind of lifestyle and head turning effect. Or they wouldn't be any Fast & Furious, or Need for Speed type games or movies out there to enjoy or become apart of the culture.
Reminds of been 18 again bolting on random spoilers and buying ebay special fibreglass body kits that don’t fit well. Fantastic video keep up the good work mat
1998 called, they want their car back! haha jesting aside, good for you, going big or going home. Not sure it's my taste but hey. I hope you're adding some HP as they are super slow! If you don't it's defo a Maccy D's carpark special :D
I think mat will go with a different colour, green has been done with the m4 comp, I wouldn’t mind seeing a nice satin colour or maybe a pink with carbon or gloss black contrasting bits
You’re 100% creating my youth car fantasy here. Max Power, NFS and Fast and Furious in one! Please fit neon lighting (in and out) and a massive sound system 👌😉🙏🏻
I see the vision you have…..this is going to look amazing. Really admire you’ve just gone full send on arch cutting. The nervous laughter cracked me up! Keep up the great work 👍👍
This is wicked!!!! To be full need for speed I feel it needs a louvered rear window to finish the subtle back end off 😆 afterall, that wing will be filling the rear view anyway so it won't reduce visibility much more😀 just get a rear view camera and all's good
Reminds me of my max power days when you would slap a body kit on your 2002 Renault Clio and think you were cool! Can’t wait to see the final outcome 👍🏻
Love your channel mate. It reminds me of the modified cars we used to build in the 80s, boy I wish we had LEDs and carbon back in the day. Wicked content 👍
Car is looking fab Matt. Can’t wait for the end result. Even love the worlds biggest rear spoiler. You just have a real talent of making cars look special. Keep up the great work ❤️❤️ Jeff
I love this, Mat! This was legit my childhood and dream to always have a tune car and the body kit. Played need for speed always after school or even pimp my ride the game. Sadly I dknt have enough money to make this a reality of having a tune car
Even for my 2007 Subaru Forester, which has the exact same brake calipers as this car it looks like. It was cheaper to get aftermarket coilovers to replace my struts than to get brand new subaru parts. and cheaper to get Sparco Assetto Gara rims than to get OEM replacements. and it's gonna be more expensive than anything ive done to the car to actually buy the OEM Hood, scoop, front bumper, fenders and all the individually sold clips & bolts to fasten everything. Aftermarket is the way to go. Also instead of getting any suspension parts from subaru, go to whiteline performance for Sway bars and heavy duty sealed links or Solid sealed Sway Bar links.
Matt, you never fail to amaze me with your send it attitude and it’s mint tbh. I would honestly be humming and harring debating on where to cut the arches and would be measuring and going so ocd. You’re like send itttttt, let’s just go for it🤟🏻😂
Cant wait to see which color you are gonna pick for this built.... they are always far from the normal but makes the car one of a kind, really love you videos buddy❤️👌🏻
Hey Matt, would you consider doing an episode on buying cars from copart? Their pricimg looks complex, so many fees etc, it would be interesting to see what to look for, how the process works etc. What makes you decide whether or not to go for a car, that sort of thing. Just a thought anyways, as you've done themed vids in the past. Thanks!
I've got a rb diffuser on my 86, you have to cut out the standard one off to bolt the rb on. interested to see what wheel/suspension setup you go with. defo look into forced induction makes the car much better
As a 30 year old man that spent his childhood playing need for speed underground 1 & 2. I very much approve of this.
I just read your comment and thought what an old bastard being 30 then realised I'm 30 😂
Yes! Totally agree!
As a 59 year old man who did not spend his childhood playing computer games - so do I! This is going to be an awesome build.
As a 20 year old fucking send ittttttt
Can already hear Riders on the storm
This is what Japanese cars are all about, crazy mods, loving it
I have a Mazdaspeed that I am working on, slowly gettting there. Got it at 151k, upgraded engine, got it painted and got wheels and and now I’m saving up for the body kit and upgrading transmission later
3m 1 minute glue tape and screws and a fancy wrap
Mats famous line,
"You guys are going to think I've gone mad"
Yes Mat we've always known!
But that's why we love you mate because you just go for it!
Ah, 20 minutes of Mat to soothe the days stresses. Hopefully the bodykit will make the bonnet look better 😬
This is gonna be maddddd! Can’t wait to see this finished brother.
I've got full faith in you Matt and Hannah.
I've been watching for at least 18 months now and even though not everything has been to my choice I can appreciate what you are doing.
Love the variety and style and work and repairs on your channel.
Top marks from me mate...
I don’t even like body kits and loud exhausts but I just love watching these videos 👌
watching ur old videos, the simple dream is to fix, rebuild cars and work for Porsches, currently in school working toward my goals. love ur vids mat thanks for keeping me happy though my rough times
I’m loving this build. This is what car modifying is all about. Doing something different and standing out. Top job 👍
Love the channel homie!
Thanks bro 🙌 the supras going to look crazy!
Rare birdy in the wild, still watching 86 builds i see
@@MatArmstrongbmx yo Matt are you still selling them tools sets
It's gonna look 🔥🔥🔥
goin to college in september for mechanics, love watching these vids for tips and general knowledge, great content!!!
nothing like any other channell though. buying write offs and not repairing them for profit, but modifying them instead. and never in half measures full send😂 love it mate refreshing to see someone doing something different with the salvage stuff👌👌
Waiting for the end of the project. gonna look sick😋
Just seeing that side with kit on I'm just singing in my head lil Jon and East side Boyz "GET LOW" love it
Okaaaay!
Look at it this way, you've saved an otherwise scrap car from being scrapped and given it a whole new purpose in life. Going Rocket Bunny was what it cried out for. It's going to look epic once complete.
Love this channel as its straight to the point
Great content. This type of car is also an achievable play car for a lot people. Do a banged up focus next 😁
Absolutely love the content mat, 249k subs nearly at 250k congratulations man, such a mint guy very well deserve it
I can see this looking absolutely awesome when it's done. Please paint/wrap it a mad bright yellow!! 💛
Always look forward to your videos you're smashing it mate! 💪
bro this is one of the only vids that i genuinely enjoyed watching. keep it up man
Just come back from mallory park and saw the maserati go past and it looks even better in person man i love it 😂😂
Ooooh i’m buying all the tickets when this eventually goes up for raffle ☺️
Good luck on the insurance buddy 😁 cool if you win though
@@sidrens5292 why? is it that expensive in the uk? here in Germany, you would probably pay 1k€ per year for the insurance…
@@dometr9254 for heavily modified cars - yes indeed. Especially when the cars structure/body is modified from its original factory/safety standard. I believe the last winner was quoted over £10k for the Mustang insurance (had no choice but to sell it) - age played a huge part in that of course 😁
I'll be surprised if the tickets are more than a £1.00 for this

Hands down my favorite youtuber to date 🤙🤘
don’t know why r you insecure in this, actually a lot of us are waiting for widebody🤷🏼♂️
I’m in the “what on Earth” camp BUT i have faith and am intrigued as to what comes next and the colour you have planned. An orange would be good. Something very different. Keep up the great content Mat.
I can just imagine mat driving the car like he's playing nfs with cops on him
I love the wing, with those you can't half ass it, either subtle or really big and this one looks awesome
I don't think any of us hate any of your builds. They're always great!
As a Rocket Bunny BRZ owner. Im glad that you took the V1 Wing!Looks gorgeous
I just know its gonna look SICK!!💯 Keep it up, love ur content🙌🏼
Really love how your car is coming bro...love the effort and the rocket bunny kit...your video was detailed enough for me ...I'm a big fan of how these cars looks with the widebody ....can't wait for the rest of the videos on this car to come...
Loving the transformation going on with gt86 ,you must have a lot of patience is all I can say keep it going .
Do you know what I really shouldn’t like this but there is something about how bold it is that you find yourself egging you on.

This is gunna be amazing when finished, loving the build process

mega mega build. I like your effort and how you just jump into it, with no fear. It's just the way you learn the most!

We just met at Warren Estate. You the man! Got your rev going out recorded as well!!
1998 called, they want their car back! haha jesting aside, good for you, going big or going home. Not sure it's my taste but hey. I hope you're adding some HP as they are super slow! If you don't it's defo a Maccy D's carpark special :D
I’m gonna go with Lime green and black as my colour prediction for this one.
Like devins?
I think mat will go with a different colour, green has been done with the m4 comp, I wouldn’t mind seeing a nice satin colour or maybe a pink with carbon or gloss black contrasting bits
If you wrapped bright bloody pink it couldn’t look any rougher
I'm thinking bright green or orange, but I wouldn't be surprised if he went for a Tokyo scene look and went for metallic gold, or metallic purple
You’re 100% creating my youth car fantasy here. Max Power, NFS and Fast and Furious in one! Please fit neon lighting (in and out) and a massive sound system 👌😉🙏🏻
M8..... Fast & Furious... Love it.. Max Power for the modern day car fan..... "Sick"
trust me ! from all your videos i had so much fun watching this one ! thank you mat !
I see the vision you have…..this is going to look amazing. Really admire you’ve just gone full send on arch cutting. The nervous laughter cracked me up! Keep up the great work 👍👍
Congratulations on the 250k brother!!!! Well deserved!! 🎉
This is wicked!!!! To be full need for speed I feel it needs a louvered rear window to finish the subtle back end off 😆 afterall, that wing will be filling the rear view anyway so it won't reduce visibility much more😀 just get a rear view camera and all's good
The end project is gonna be sick🔥❤️love you man, watching your videos from South Africa🇿🇦

Check out that massive wing! All the carbon fibre left in the world in that bad boy! Keep up the good content Mat!
Reminds me of the max power days, when random kits were fitted in your own garage and looked unique, good job
Just send it mate!! It's got to be done. Loving the work just keep it up. 💯 mad and up for it.
I'm seeing 250k subs, well deserved ♥ congratulations
Reminds me of my max power days when you would slap a body kit on your 2002 Renault Clio and think you were cool! Can’t wait to see the final outcome 👍🏻

Needs an inter cooler in the gap and spooly boy in the bay!! Thought I was gonna hate the wing but with the body kit it works… love it 😂
11:55 That drivers side Valenti indicator is faulty. 3 LEDs not lighting.
Alright alright.. Not bad not bad at all.. Buuut am yet see the final product.. And I wanted to see the full body kit fitted tonight
Car is looking fab Matt. Can’t wait for the end result. Even love the worlds biggest rear spoiler. You just have a real talent of making cars look special. Keep up the great work ❤️❤️ Jeff
Great to see you killing it!
Respect to you Mat for giving it a go on your own and smashing it!!!
I love this, Mat! This was legit my childhood and dream to always have a tune car and the body kit. Played need for speed always after school or even pimp my ride the game. Sadly I dknt have enough money to make this a reality of having a tune car
Good on ya for having the guts do it yourself.
It'll be epic when it's done, same as all your other builds, TOP man.
Smashing it matt! Keep it up lad
Ive got faith in you mat love your vision and tenacity it’s going to be wicked I’ve no doubt 👍
These rear lights are actually very nice. Those replaced ones will be filled witj water sooner than laternor just straight up die.
Tokyo Drift and Need for Speed all in one. 10/10 👌🏿 and Hannah's definitely a keeper Mat 👍🏿
Definitely the Frankenstein of GT86's but you never disappoint with your builds Mat. Keep up the great work
Absolute bangin mods.. the BIG WANG looks mint 👍👏
Love everything about this whole video.
You are actually living my dream!
Mat I love it mate. That's the biggest spoiler I've ever seen! It's going to look insane when it's done mate.
Matt's got a new garage "Fwend" haha. Teaching more already. Good on you !
Added bonus you can iron your undercrackers on the wing.
You've nailed it before , so confidence tells me patience is the virtue here.
Even for my 2007 Subaru Forester, which has the exact same brake calipers as this car it looks like. It was cheaper to get aftermarket coilovers to replace my struts than to get brand new subaru parts. and cheaper to get Sparco Assetto Gara rims than to get OEM replacements. and it's gonna be more expensive than anything ive done to the car to actually buy the OEM Hood, scoop, front bumper, fenders and all the individually sold clips & bolts to fasten everything.

Congrats on hitting 250k subs 👏 onwards and upwards.
I have faith in you Mat! As an 86 owner myself, I’m loving your vids. Cannot wait to watch the build unfold further. VV.86.VV from Sydney Australia 🤙🏻
Thanks bro 🙌
You have done so many mad cars but this is by far the craziest I can’t wait for the next one it’s gonna be amazing
Been following you for a long time. Love your initiative bruh. Looking forward to how this project turns out. From Australia✌
So cool to see someone pursuing the build I could never get to 😣my 86 was totalled a week before you got yours, and it wasn’t even my fault 😞
Matt, you never fail to amaze me with your send it attitude and it’s mint tbh. I would honestly be humming and harring debating on where to cut the arches and would be measuring and going so ocd. You’re like send itttttt, let’s just go for it🤟🏻😂

It is already looking great. Loving this build!
I wonder what magic you could work on my Ford focus 1.6 tdci lol
Lucky fella. Well done. All beautiful.

I’m all for the euro look Matt but still your channel is a must watch. I’ve no doubt it will look epic 👍🏻👍🏻
Seeing this takes me back to my youth and installing poorly fitting fiberglass kits to cars! love it mate!!!
Love the carbon ironing board on the boot man
This car is going to be crazy beautiful 😍😍🔥🔥
Your having fun doing it Matt and we are having fun watching it....What's not to like 😀
GT86, best looking car you’ve done so far 👌🏻
Can see the vision and hopefully it will turn out great. Bonnet looks sick really like it.
great work buddy - have faith :D
When has this channel not delivered? Smashing it! 💪🏆
