It’s just so fitting that when you get the 86 rolling for the first time all you can see is a Guinness and juicebox hoodie🇮🇪 I’m sure there is a very happy man in Waterford right about now
You should extend the loft over the bathroom entrance and make stairs up like the old shop so there is more storage space and easy access to the storage and Austin can go up there for cinematics maybe?
Jimmy, next time your in ireland try to organise to see some of the top spec ae86 rally cars, most of them use brakes so big you cant fit smaller than a 15 inch wheel, they also run a similar power level as you are aiming for, 300 to 350 bhp, our k20 mk2 escort is 290 bhp and runs maaahoosive brakes at 800kg/ around 1500lbs, they are needed
@@tylerreed7385 It's just Hello Fresh but with a different name, It's even owned by Hello Fresh, It's expensive as shit considering it's single serve meals.
add a 2x10 behind the brackets that you can land into studs or something solid then attach the L-Brackets to that to add strength. Or longer screws for the drywall anchors because that's why the first one pulled out, although those anchors are always shit anyways. Toggle bolts are another option for anchoring the brackets.
Guys, on calipers with bleed screws on all 4 corners, you need to pay attention on the position of the bigger piston. The smaller piston goes first in the direction of rotation, so up in this case
I wouldn't normally say this, but order some of the super sized 96gal clear garbage bags for putting overtop of those seats in storage. You can still see which seat it is in the bag but keep em fresh.
Hey Jimmy, I run the same brakes on my ae86 wich I use for Sprintraces. Perfect size for a 900kg car. Never had any brakefading and performance is much better than stock.
Just wanted to say I’ve been watching since 7 months before the shop fire and I just wanted to say thank you for continuing to produce amazing content , I look for your video like I look for my vape haha
I was unfortunately only watching haggard when that happened but I found out about him through their videos. I did see the shop fire video but I really started watching when he got the new shop after that. Jimmy and the crew always make dope videos!
A volvo 240 rear end will fit the 86. Manual brakes feel wonderful for an 86. A lot of people relocate the pushrod mounting location to give it more leverage, to make it easier, but leaving it in the stock location feels completely fine. You might want a wilwood prop valve if you do it, or I think you can run an s12/13 bmc which has an internal propvalve iirc. I used the tpr kit on my 86, but I know drifthq sells the chasebays one.
Chicos.. estan a otro nivel! La verdad note un cambio positivo con la llegada de Steve, Spoon y Austin al canal. A Jimmy lo noto mas relajado y me gusta que siga en el ambiente, el mismo taller le da un toque y que los chicos esten en frente tamb
TAKE MY WORD ON THIS ..... The 86 rear end is just like the 3rd gen Celica solid axle rear end , I found out the hard way you can NOT weld the diff. BUT you can use a "spool" instead of welding ..... nothing to break , nothing to jam up ... I've been drifting on the same spool since I put it in (about 4 years ago) hope this helps ... GOOD LUCK
You could fully build out a mezanine from the toilet across to the other side without compromising lift usage, youd get more storage and plenty more space for workshop tools/workbench/etc
My boy, Jimmy, and the crew you guys have brought the car culture two people that don’t understand us and now they understand hard work friendship, and living your best life is the key to success never forget where you come from but always looking ahead to see where you guys are making an imprint in people’s lives. Can’t wait to see what the new year brings🎉.What more can you ask for?🎥🔥💯🏎️💨💨🏁🇵🇷🏴☠️
I bought a smaller booster from T3 recently, Flo's also has one. I needed the room but didn't want to convert my car to booster-less. Having the smaller booster allows access to the nut to the clutch master cylinder that is hidden by the original brake booster.
12:19 That style bearing should NEVER be more than finger tight unless the service manual gives a spec. Best way, after seating everything, is to do it finger tight and see how the hole for the cotter pin lines up. If it lines up, then install and send it. If it doesn't, then loosen the nut until it does, then install and send it. There will be a small amount of noticeable play once the wheel is installed, this is normal.
Have had my 86 for 10+ years, half of those years ran the booster disconnected,I like the firmness..T3 sells a delete kit or if you want a smaller booster flos.ie sells one for clearance issues.
Jimmy is proof that if you like what you like it’s your car who cares what other people think. I personally think all of jimmys cars are exactly how I’d build them if I owned them!
My truck is 4000 lbs and I run manual brakes. Dont run a booster for a grip car. Also i wouldve gone 6 piston still up front because then you dont have to run as aggressive of a pad and would probably get even more life out of them pads and rotors. Loving the track build
I run manual brakes with AP Racing front brake kit, feels fantastic, doesn't require excessive pedal effort. Using a 3/4 master cylinder, OEM master might make it feel a little too stiff IMO.
Jimmy, posting this comment while still watching the video: just a suggestion, wrap the seats what you store top of WC, in plastic bags, so they don’t get damaged. As you never know how long they will be there.
24:57 I spy a front facing intske plenum for an RB???, couple that with the some of those 34 parts, is there an r34 gtt build coming soon? Or something to put an rb into maybe
I have manual brakes on my ae86 with the OEM master cylinder. Feel firm and you have to press it with intent but it brakes good. Also check the type 1 aero mirrors they looks way better on the ae86
you should have opened rear pumkin cover and make sure that the rear end is even bolted into place. it might have just ben set in place and bolts were just hand threaded loose. and now parts are catching from not being fully seated. not say 100000% but huge potential for it.
If the suspension or rear axle aren't up to it you can get fully floating axles etc and the suspension from a rally mk2 escort to fit and they take 350bhp flat out
Sometimes i feel like you and taylor plan your builds together, you guys did the touge factory kswap around the same time, and now the ae86 build, these odds man 🤯
