Budget LS Swap Miata Pt.11 Transmission Modification and Install 

Forgot to put the clip in about the seal...lol Here is a link.drive.google.com/open?id=15DMZvTNqEHQgpIovZzHUAhBjnyUL4FK5

this car is going to feel insannnneee!! cannot wait to see it dropped in the engine bay

Wow that video explaining the rear main seal was amazing.

Screw the trans, you got the garden hose! This is huge. Finally no more built in yard sprinkler mid-hose. Nah man just kidding. I just can't wait to see this thing fully come together, it's going to be crazy. You are one of the best RU-vidr's at explaining just about everything there is to, and it's a great learning experience. There will always be people analyzing and criticism towards what you do, whether it be constructive or otherwise. Can't wait to see more and sending good vibes for the rest of the build!

The cool factor is TR is authentic dude. Lots of phonies out there

Buying the garden hose was half the problem now all you need to do is remember that you bought a new one lol but that valve cover looks SICK.

i looked it up and in a c6 zr1 corvette the theoretical top speed barring ind resistance and other frictions that would limit the top speed in 6th gear with a gear ratio of .50 at max rpm would be 324.9 mph or 522.9 kmh

Never thought of it that way. Definitly going to have to use a CD009 when i LS swap the SL500!

Damnit man, I fucking love your videos. Literally the only ones I get excited to see pop up in my notifications, and every one is worth the full watch. Thanks for them all, you're the man.

it makes me so happy to hear all the AvE references

I don’t know what camera you’re using or what the settings are but the video quality is 🔥

Re watching the build for fun and this is like, peak Taylor Ray. This music was the channel. You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

The best part about your channel is that you actually build it yourself, thats the best way to learn in my mind and how I go about all of my builds.

I don't know if it's my internet finally playing at 1080p or what but this whole video is satisfying to the eye..... And yaaaaay finally got a garden hose!! 😂

Dude if you ever see this just gotta say you’re my fucking hero been watching you from the jump you literally inspire me to be better

I've watched Matt do that hot balancer install several times, and he really puts stuff through the torture test. I wouldn't hesitate doing it that way. People always wanna find a fault in the process, I don't understand people like that. I appreciate all the knowledge your sharing, so thanks..

I work in a dealership and we all use impacts to disassemble and reassemble shit all the time. 90% of use have electric impacts (I'm the only one with all of the snapon stuff). It speeds things way up, which means moving metal, turning time and making money. If you use a ratchet for everything you're a fool and you're going to loose your ass. Plus, you can gauge how tight it was when you took it off with your impact vs how tight it needs to be when you've worked with impacts for a while. Smart men, and lady's use the best tool for the job.

That car is going to riiiiip

I install all LS balancers by heating them and know many others that do as well. I've done at least 10 with a torch and never had an issue with the seal. Besides the fact that when the engine is running all those components are hot anyway, the crank is a large dense chunk of steel. It works like a big heat sink. As soon as the balancer is slid on alot of the heat is transferred to the crank. That's why as soon as the pulley is slid onto the crank, you can't just pull it back off, it cools rapidly

im re watching this playlist to gather a parts list for a swap, and just enjoying the videos. there a part where your talking about inserting a clip about your rear main seal, then the screen just goes black for maybe 5 seconds. lol and honestly, i think you properly adressed the negative comments by not responding. even if it wasnt intentional lol

It might already be too late, but I'd highly recommend a remote bleeder line in place of the stock hex bleeder on the LS slave. They trap air pretty badly and usually need to be bled a few times to get a consistent pedal feel. Love the build so far man, keep it up!

I kept commenting about the gardening hose for the past couple of videos for the luls and you actually got one

there is so many people who comment on these videos who strictly know the theory part of everything not actually doing it... you can ALWAYS point these people out. keep doing what you're doing taylor seems to be going just fine lol.

Taylor is the man dude. Doing ls swaps in his little garage. Props good sir keep cranking out these drift missiles.

DUDE YOU WERE HOLDING YOUR REDBULLL WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Taylor finally got himself a Garden Hose that isn't full of holes and cuts.

I really enjoy all of the videos Taylor Ray. Thanks man. I really enjoy relaxing at night and watching them. I appreciate longer videos myself so thanks again.

I really appreciate your humility while making these videos.

YAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! GARDEN HOSE!!!!!!!! now i have nothing to pick on you about........i has a sad.

I would highly suggest that you order a remote bleeder kit. If you’ve ever had to bleed a clutch in an Ls car you will know that it is a huge pain in the ass and the remote bleeder makes it so much easier.

I was so much wishing for a late night upload! (In Central Europe) thanks Taylor!

Great work but a little heavy on the rtv. Two machined finishes. That's gonna ooze just as much inside as it did outside

Taylor a little trick I've learned over the years is to use a very thin layer of RTV and it might sound odd but get some 10-20 lb monofilament fishing line depending on the size of the part and lay that down into the RTV in the shape of the gasket overlapping where the ends meet..when torqued down it creates a very good seal better than RTV alone. I've never had a leak on anything since I started doing it.

i love the little notes your put in when you edit. Adds so much to the video

I want an LS swapped miata but everyone tells me im too tall. (I'm 6'3 btw) But seeing you doing it really makes me wanna do it now. Can't wait to see you finish it keep up the good work man!

Loving these long videos Taylor 👍

I'm doing my first real big car project soon and you just helped me solve a huge problem. on top of that your videos are just making me more and more excited to get at this project. in case your wondering i'm cramming an LM7 into a fiber fab Jamaican that is onto of a triumph tr3 frame... should be pretty sweet

Bring Back Tool Time #BBTT

Garden hose let's gooo boi!!xD 😛!!Can't wait to see it dropped in!!I don't know why but I got a jaguar vibe from the whole ls!!❤

eating thin mints and watching this, keep it up brah

That was a dope intro. You always pick some of that lo-fi old school hip hop type stuff. I love it.

This video is a piece of arts! The songs just match the scenes and i can fell the quality. Really really good contends! Good job.

0:00 - 3:01 Don't worry about hurting T56 transmissions' feelings, bro. I promise they aren't sentient. No more trigger warnings for them lol gah

Hey Taylor, I'm just stopping by to say once again man. I really really enjoy watching your videos. Your such a humble and relaxed dude and it just makes for great content. I commented on one of your videos not long ago and didn't think you would reply. And was absolutely blown away that you took the time to comment back. Again man keep up the awesome work and the great videos buddy. And if for any reason in the world you are ever in Vegas buddy it would awesome to meet up and get some lunch or a photo. Thanks again buddy, keep up the awesome vibe and great videos.

Just some quick tips. Spit on your finger when spreading rtv, keeps it from sticking to your finger

That intro scene paired with the music 👌

Garden hose FTW!! Good job, Taylor.

I paid 800 for my cd009 brandnew still in the plastic wrap. Deal of a life tims

Great vid Tayler. Just a tip when tightening something flush you should tighten in top to bottom then side to side not moving around in a circle as that could potentially stop it sitting flush. Goes for wheels and basically anything that's ment to sit flush

Wow nice to see this build comeing along very well I can't wait to continue on with my build on my truck

Excellent choice on the music my dude! I was surprised when I heard something new but it fits super well. Keep up the good work man, so hyped for you to finish your build.

Your def one of my top 3 channel's I watch! Your awesome man and your video's have came a long way!

Thanks to this video, my goal for an ls powered e46 lives on

dude i have been looking into collins adapter kits and am also scared of cutting a bellhousing but after this video i feel alot better about it great content

Well the really nice thing about having the double overdrive is you can run a really short gear in the rear end and still be able to drive it on the freeway. I would recommend going and playing with the transmission calculator rear end and tire size. Can you can buy a brand new T56 for 3100 bucks fyi.

Been watching your videos for a long time now man, really enjoy them. I’m in the middle of swapping a ls6 in to my nb

Love the details and taking in consideration the feed back u get , favorite RU-vidr along side with motion auto and adam lz

Taylor, I'm not one of those to say that you are doing things wrong. But I will say that when you were working on the LS it drove me personally crazy that you didn't remove the heads. That engine was sitting outside. Always, always, always remove the heads and check the cylinders. Especially since you had that stiff spot when you were rotating the engine. All it would have cost you is some new gaskets and an hour of your time for the peace of mind you would have gotten from visually inspecting the cylinder walls. I always remove the main caps and check the bearings too, but that is just me. Great vids though man, I'm enjoying the hell out of this build and can't wait to see the Mean Miata fire up.

These videos are so well put together, really enjoy watching this whole series

G'day mate. Awesome videos as always. I love watching them. Just make sure that the bronze bush for the spigot is packed with oil. They're meant to be packed with oil under pressure from your thumb 👍. They are porous. Cheers mate!

Taylor this is gonna be a bad ass ls swapped Mx-5 is gonna be Fast and fun as hell I can wait I don’t like some ls swapped fouren cars but it’s gonna be bad ass keep up the good work man!!👌🏽

Cinematography is getting better!

Love your videos so much because of the 30 minutes of pure entertainment and learning thank you!

Loving the engine swap vids. Keep it up man. Watch your back when your lifting shit, you’re lifting stuff wrong

I could watch hours of these videos. Keep up the good work!

Intro is freaking fire oh my goshhhh😩😩😩

Hey Taylor, just so you know that rear main seal video wasn’t in the video 😂

this hurt my back just watching...

Chanel is getting better with every video! Good stuff!

It's coming together man! Ready to see this thing rip! Love the videos man! Upload daily please 😔

Like how well you explain everything in detail

Great progress! Glad to see some updates on this build. I strongly considered that same transmission. I ended up with a GTO transmission, on a good deal. I think both are great, and I am not familiar with the nissan transmission aftermarket. The T56 dual overdrive sucks, but I am planning on buying new 5th and 6th gears in the future. The aftermarket for the T56 appears to be great. Lots of gear options, and rebuild kits aren't too expensive. I suspect that it's similar for the Nissan transmission. You do have a great point on the cost of transmission replacement though. If I destroy mine, i'll probably just rebuild with new gearing, vs buying a new transmission. Looking forward to seeing this thing run!

10:20 start using loctite on crucial places like the slave cylinder. ;) Hard to reach and potentially lots of damage if a bolt gets close.

Don’t listen to the keyboard mechanics just do you 👍🏼

The person saying 200 degrees might have meant Celsius and not Fahrenheit

I love these 30 minutes videos. I like Lots of long content!

Ok this is just a probably just a small thing but as a german CNC-programer I would have made the adapterplate so you dont need to cut something off of the trans every time you want to replace it with a new one when you brake it. (please tell me if I wrote this kinda wrong I want to get better with my english skills)

GARDEN HOSE.. OMG YES SO STOKED FOR U BRO!

Wooo!!! A new garden hose!!!

Taylor the video quality is on fleek'

I love every single video you make they are awesome

C6 Z06 specs: 7100 limit, 3.42 R/P, .50 6th gear with a 25.6 tire has a top speed of 316MPH.

We have two bad ass builds going on My buddy’s LS S13 and my my SR20 79 celica motor, cradle, trans , and suspension

Loving the built cant wait to see the motor in and angle kit in too👌👌 tool time would be awesome when you get tools cuz we all love new tools ;D

Super excited to see this finished... gonna be good time...

YAY YOU REMEMBERED!

Taylor!!! Never pull drive train stuff together like that with bolts I did that and messed up the pilot bearing because it wasn't seated probably

Keep up the good Work man! Like your vids, can't wait to see the miata go sideway again!

That explanation clip was great.

to the sealing thing.. i'm a mechanic and i've never seen someone heat something up and put a seal on it. that's a no no. Also the sealing "Backwarts.. never seen a sealing put on that way.. looks wronk, feels wrong. Don't get me wrong here.. you could be right, but seeing you scratching your head if it's the right way.. you know what i mean. It jsut looks like you don't know. But! I Trust you and i know these moments like.. "Yea you shouldn't heat it up.. but.. fuck it.. it's gonna be alright if it's not that hot" I do this so much myself.. You got this

mmmmm close up shots of billet parts are the best

Big thumbs up for the garden hose ! Haha

Yayyyyyy for the garden hose about time 😂😂😂

The flywheel bolt situation makes you more human. Most of us can relate

The rear main wasn’t installed wrong but the white plastic piece that came with it is to aid in installation.

look after your back my man

Thanks Brett for the parts!

I think it’s time to upgrade that work bench.

Congrats on finally getting a new hose!

Awesome Video, Stoked on the progress! Lol at the outro too ahaha
