@@BladedAngel I love your love for the MR2s you show mad respect✊🏾. Also funny you have the vette id like to have! And you should do a video explaining the itasha thing more! Wanna hear even more of your take lol
@@phoraridmv I have vlogs of my entire Itasha Vette, just click my channel lmao. I talked about it so much, people actually got annoyed by it, so no need to make anymore on it.
Lmao bro I had a 2009 Cobalt SS and I had a group of kids walk up from the back of the car and ask me if it was a GTR and I laughed and was like "no bros it's just a cobalt with a wing, body kit and turbo on it" 😂 I actually miss that little car, and the 42MPG I could get in it when I kept my foot out of it
42 MPG! Did you verify that as accurate with the traditional method? I can barely get my 2010 lt auto above 29 MPG. I'm currently trying to buy a 2006 SS with a 2.4 block, LSJ head, and turbo from LNF on it. No dyno numbers but it's gotta be 300+ crank HP.
@@johnhunter7244 no just what my MPG gauge said the instant miles were in cruise going like 65 to 70 on the highway. I drive mostly highway miles where I live and even the non highway roads are long back roads with 55 to 60 mph signs. The car was great on gas. It was only supossed to have like 14psi from the factory but I had it read 16.4 one time. Not sure if the previous owner had a tune on it or what but it didn't have any kind of lights on in the dash and that tends to happen when you tune a cobalt from my understanding, or it can.
@@johnhunter7244 and nice. I don't like the supercharged years nearly as much because they lack the top end power and mpg compared to the turbo. Also the turbo may have helped me with fuel due to the fact it's kind of small and very efficient. I've driven both SC and TC models and I'd go TC all day again if I could. The 2.4 is a good block but I don't think you get very much power compared to the 2.0 and you can boost the 2.0 much more safely due to the thicker side walls. ZZP is who I went thru for any parts and such. They hooked me up with BC Coil overs, TWS snowflake style alloy wheels, a 3in turbo back exhaust system and a 3.5in air intake that funneled down to 3.0 or 2.75, can't remember exactly. Made the turbo much louder and the blow off noticeable. Their amazing little cars and nearly bullet proof if done correctly.
@@jyminewtron1416 the 2.4 block is basically a stoked and slightly bored version of the 2.0 so I don't see why it would make less power unless at the extreme. One thing U never understood was why they never increased the redline that much. On the ss tc engines the redline was only 6300 partially due to being only direct injection, which I think is a mistake. The ss SC engines don't have vvt which might be part of what you are saying with not having much top end. Also car gets like 35 or 40 mpg at 65 or 70 mph but the average is closer to 27-29
@@johnhunter7244 the SC model is fun though. I'm not knocking it. I just liked the turbo more. The SC kind of put me in the seat a little more off rip but the turbo for some reason felt much better over all. And my MPG was better overall also. It made on paper like another 40ish hp if I remember correctly. I sold it like 5 years ago so I don't fully remember with out googling it. Lol also my turbo had mods to it which may be why it felt better. I bought the car and like a week later had all the parts on the way.
The Gatekeepers are that brutally honest friend who is always straight up with you. This way we don't keep blurring the lines between categories, like the difference between a street car and an actual race car build.
Oh, so true. There's a guy at work plays at being a car guy. Had a stock miata, thought it was a supercar. Then traded that for a Jeep that looks like it's from a Malibu Barbie set. Another car guy from work and I just give each other the look whenever we get the tude from malibu barbie jeep guy.
Then im a gatekeeper with a hint of Mr. Clean cuz i always comment on how dirty some cars are 😅 (I can mention it cuz mine is actually the cleanest most ofthetime cuz i take care of it)
I enjoyed the last one, I mean honestly if you are willing to down-badge your high performance car just to troll some non car guy noob then that's respect
If you do it right, you can troll car guys as well.. for example planting an BMW X20d exhaust and batch onto an X50d car.. sound wont give it away, except that the turbo noise might be sus..
Nah, bruh! Alla y'all Kei bros with your 660cc Big Block Aint-No-Substitute-For-Cubic-Inches muscle cars need to chill! 360cc is more than enough for real chads! Sambar Lyfe 4 Evar!!!1
When you showed the GTR with the Cobalt badges, I can genuinely see how a person that doesn't know shit about cars can think it's a Cobalt. Downbadging is the best, I know someone that had an Altima badge on his GTR, though the joke got old for him and he debadged it. It was still funny as fuck to me
@@RazeR8023 I would have thought they use holdens in Australia, I guess not. I'm American but every police car I've seen has been American. Explorers, tahoes, f150s, chargers, crown vics, and more.

@@justuraveragecunt9005 I’m only 16 but I saved up for a car and I got a 1989 Formula with 65000 miles. There were no major problems. Small things here and there but other than that it cleaned up well. I’m getting her painted this week!! Have about 4K put into the car rn.
Love the idea of a sleeper in general, this is a great way to do that. My STI has the optimal "regular WRX" spoiler, not the big STI wing. Maybe I should swap the STI badges to WRX... I wouldn't even be lying, just being non-specific! Then again.. Rexes are mostly just as quick as the STI these days anyhow lol
but really tho, i have immense respect for america and mexico. as a canadian i have to visit 1 or the other justto meet some people with original culture.
the "Kei kar bros" are probably getting the last laugh regardless atm with the current gas prices... And I am guilty of loving kei cars... lol. One of my dream cars was the az1.
I work at a parts store and I absolutely love seeing younger guys try learning about cars for themselves. I don't drive anything special but I also come from a non car family so everything I know I wasn't raised around like a lot of my friends. I had to learn it for myself. To me, as long as you're not a clout chaser and you're willing to learn, you're alright in my book. I just can't stand people who buy brand new WRXs or high trim chargers and don't even know the heritage of the said car they're buying or how to change an air filter on it. Even worse, when they think they're superior to the guys like myself, the "anti car guys" (I call those of us who know a lot about cars but drive something either weird, or completely normal because we don't need clout to enjoy the hobby) I always put people to the test. If they know what my car is (I have a Hyundai xg350) then I'll take them seriously.
Stock or sleeper car guys that don't judge if your car isn't stock or a sleeper. Also mad respect if you are all boosted up with like 700hp but don't have some obnoxious exhaust that wakes up everyone in a 3 mile radius when you floor it
Damn right, there's nothing to disagree with here. Really good explanation on why gatekeeping is important (when done responsibly). I also love the idea of a sleeper - takes the idea of "all show and no go" to the complete opposite. Substance over style. Function over form. "Speak softly and carry a big stick." That's how to do it!
Best car guys to exist are the ones who will treat you like you’re one of them regardless of what you drive and will let you ride along with them no matter what you drive
I’ve actually thought about downbadging a GT as a V6 for a few months because I’ve heard of upbadging, and I thought “why not do the opposite just to troll people?”
The best type of car guy is the kind that respects all kinds of car cultures regardless of its not their cup of tea. You can be a diehard fan of a specific brand but never shit on another mans build because you don’t like it.
I think criticising builds is all part of the community, The same freedom which lets you do anything to your car is the same freedom which grants me the right to chat shit about it
idk where ur from (maybe america), but in europe there are big tension btwn Merc, Audi, BMW and Porsche fanboys. Personnally i've always been an Audi fan, but i also love the 3 other brands, and i'll never understand why ppl can hate so much other persons/brands. Car enthusiasts is a big community, and even if we can have different opinions, we much stay united, the guys loke metioned earlyer are not for me real car guys
@@Max__ST I met a guy 2 days ago that probably has the biggest Porsche collection in the South (yes I live in the states) My favorite car happens to be the corvette. He doesn’t like them at all or any American car for that matter. Understandable! Is he a snob? Hell yea but I can’t fault him for having his own taste!
I'm in the coma crew. You've heard of sleepers, but this is the next level. Get a hybrid version of a regular ass car, like my 90+20hp 2008 Honda Civic, challenge someone to race at a light, and then accelerate as normal while they fly ahead. You're a responsible driver, environmentally conscious, and fuel efficient. 😎
Unlike other enthusiasts in some kind of communities, Car Gatekeepers are the real G, they're the security guard, they protect the community, their vibe checks makes sure nobody is bullshitting anyone and no one is getting bullshitted. Makes it easier for everyone to really get a grip around the community.
whoa whoa whoa Bladed!!!!! this by far had me rolling!!! I don't even know how this video got passed me! this was the funniest!!!! thank you bro👍🏿👍🏿👊🏿👊🏿
For the clear light part, let’s be real, these dudes are gigachads. They can either keep those lights as the factory white lights, or they can give the tail lights a red light, while keeping the casing as clear as possible.
My daily is a first gen Mazda 3, nothing special about it but I love how it comes stock with clear taillights, very minimal hints of red and since the car is black it’s super satisfying to look at
Forget about downbadging it, my friend has a mazda 69t. It was my idea actually, we took another mazda 6 in the junkyard and a t, flipped it and made a mazda 69t
Thank you for number 5 . I own volvo S60R its stock under the hood but its still 300whp .... i removed all the badges and everthing and i slapped a big old TDI behind .... some youngsters are crying gonna tell u that :DDDD
When i put a m50b25 in my e36 316i i left the badge on the trunk and i still fool alot of people who try to overtake the slow ass most basic e36 ever created but after a few seconds they have to move back behind me cus they aint overtaking me that easy. The look on their face just makes it even better as they realize they messed with the wrong car
The outsider: A bit like Non-car Guy but goes to meetings in his normal car (in my case an Astra) because he actually enjoys being there talking about and looking at cars even if he's not willing or able to buy one himself.
2:35 you made me fall in love with Itasha, and i promise that once i own an Itasha, i will own a fucking Itasha. i got 2 projects, the NB Miata + TCOAAL (sib bond game) and the MR-S + Kinsou no Vermeil (cool anime).
I'm the typa enthusiast to get more exited over a 00s Toyota Camry over a twin turbo Lamborghini Aventador or whatever. I'm not completely bland though, I have a dream to 3SGTE swap a 4th Gen Camry and find some 6 speed manual to throw in the mix
im almost a kei car dude, i love miatas and weight and size are some of my main reasons i like miatas, any gen, a stock miata is as balanced as an hummer, but for what they are for, also the suzuki cappuccino is so clean too, maybe none of my favorite cars have performance, but the handling, size and weight are so good i love them
This was very useful for me as i thought I was a drifter while i was just fucking around with my FWD Renault fluence Good times lol Anyway now that I know im not a drifter *time to become one* Thanks bladed for ur vids really informative for newbies like me
Even if the tail light tint is translucent, you still need to make sure it's visible, day or night. I avoid the brake lights though unless I upgrade the brightness.
Literally my new favorite video by bladed. It's probably partiality because i need more uploads from another RUclipsr that this video had a very very similar format of... If bladed See's this KEEP IT UP BRO DONT LET SHIT GET YOU DOWN YOUR A LEGEND
The way he sounded in this video is really hard! Looking forward to the worst types of car guys video, because that is more interesting to me, but hey excellent video Bladed Angel!
I like being in Michigan because I went down Woodward for the dream cruise and there’s just firebirds and novas with giant slicks choppy cams blower sticking out the hood and wheelie bars then there’s just some dudes in kei cars just cruising next to them
I up badged my Plymouth Voyager minivan with a SRT 6 badge above the voyager badge on the back , with a Hemi badge on each side. I just need a power wagon badge across the windshield now. :)
This video was great especially the last entry. But yeah gatekeepers are important as nowadays you go to a car show with no decent builds and afterwards have to deal with dipshits doing takeovers, also include takeover kids in the 5 worst car guys.

When i put a m50b25 in my e36 316i i left the badge on the trunk and i still fool alot of people who try to overtake the slow ass most basic e36 ever created but after a few seconds they have to move back behind me cus they aint overtaking me that easy. The look on their face just makes it even better as they realize they messed with the wrong car
Amazing description man :D
As a kei car owner, one mistake is fatal. Its always a laugh every time i drive it. Takes 7 sec to get to 50km/h
What- so many life lessons stuff I never expected this- but I love it
this is peak car youtube right here, ultra amazingly elegant and GOATed on god
I used to watch your vids, then I stoped. I'm so glad I found your Chanel again
As a kei car driver i can confirm we know our cars are shit but we just wanna have some fun
Bro the thumbnail confused me so much, I was questioning myself but after watching the last entry, I appreciate the thumnail.
That “if everyone is super then no one is super” really hit home.
The outsider: A bit like Non-car Guy but goes to meetings in his normal car (in my case an Astra) because he actually enjoys being there talking about and looking at cars even if he's not willing or able to buy one himself.
2:35 you made me fall in love with Itasha, and i promise that once i own an Itasha, i will own a fucking Itasha. i got 2 projects, the NB Miata + TCOAAL (sib bond game) and the MR-S + Kinsou no Vermeil (cool anime).
Now that I look at it NC does kinda look good with those fenders.
Yup the one about downbadging, i laugh the whole way through just imagining the stuff ppl can come up with to troll some none car guy
I'm the typa enthusiast to get more exited over a 00s Toyota Camry over a twin turbo Lamborghini Aventador or whatever. I'm not completely bland though, I have a dream to 3SGTE swap a 4th Gen Camry and find some 6 speed manual to throw in the mix
The Atlanta in you came out full force in this vid man 😂😂😂🤘🏾💯
im almost a kei car dude, i love miatas and weight and size are some of my main reasons i like miatas, any gen, a stock miata is as balanced as an hummer, but for what they are for, also the suzuki cappuccino is so clean too, maybe none of my favorite cars have performance, but the handling, size and weight are so good i love them
I’m glad that opaque and clear taillights are illegal in Germany. And maybe I should 1.4 badges on my GTI 🤔
I love the last one, my dad has a dodge charger with an 8.2 chevy engine, but the v6 badge stays on.
bladed has said more "colorful" words in this video than i have ever heard him say on this channel
You owe me a new chair. I ended up breaking it because I fell out of it laughing so many times this vid.
Thanks for looking out for the NC bros
this vid is proof this man has no chill
This was very useful for me as i thought I was a drifter while i was just fucking around with my FWD Renault fluence
Good times lol
Anyway now that I know im not a drifter
*time to become one*
Thanks bladed for ur vids really informative for newbies like me
Big fan keep posting
nah nah nah, the best tail lights are clear taillights, but with tint. so no red, just colorless with tint, that is the best way to do it.
i have a cobalt ls and rearranged it so now it just says balls, im in love with your content
Yee yee ass coment is the best line I have heard in a bit
I can't watch a single one of these videos without thinking about will Ferrell having a puma in the backseat while he's going fast
Even if the tail light tint is translucent, you still need to make sure it's visible, day or night. I avoid the brake lights though unless I upgrade the brightness.
Literally my new favorite video by bladed. It's probably partiality because i need more uploads from another RUclipsr that this video had a very very similar format of... If bladed See's this KEEP IT UP BRO DONT LET SHIT GET YOU DOWN YOUR A LEGEND
The 70yr old man who lives down the street and drives a riced out FR-S? That guy is a real g
The way he sounded in this video is really hard! Looking forward to the worst types of car guys video, because that is more interesting to me, but hey excellent video Bladed Angel!
I like being in Michigan because I went down Woodward for the dream cruise and there’s just firebirds and novas with giant slicks choppy cams blower sticking out the hood and wheelie bars then there’s just some dudes in kei cars just cruising next to them
I up badged my Plymouth Voyager minivan with a SRT 6 badge above the voyager badge on the back , with a Hemi badge on each side.
I just need a power wagon badge across the windshield now. :)
7:41 when it comes to flaired-fendered automotive beauty, I don’t think anything comes close to a 350/370z… They’re absolutely gorgeous!
This felt like a shitpost, really liked it 👍
I love watching your videos and I love all the energy you had in this one 😂
Back then I actually down badged my S6 C6 into a 3.0 A6 C6, loved tricking e class coupe owners 😂
clear taillights on top baybee
This video was great especially the last entry. But yeah gatekeepers are important as nowadays you go to a car show with no decent builds and afterwards have to deal with dipshits doing takeovers, also include takeover kids in the 5 worst car guys.
Bruh the rant that turned into making them pay for the wall had me dyin
Can feel the relief in the voice.
big respect for the nc miata rant
