Brakes

Yeah last week was a garbage fire.....horrible episode.

Looked so dumb lol, not gonna watch that one

@@EkowMensahMotorsports a filler episode

@@belfedhalmohamed9152 still haven't done brakes yet,

Is just a Miata, don't need big brakes 😂

you know Zach is the one who liked this because you just dissed everyone else lookout for James and Nolan to talk about this on up to speed when they ramble

eli bloom he ain’t dissing donut... all the hosts have different styles; and zachs this guys favorite. Low key miss Bart, science garage was my favorite

@@MrKinkysloth miss science garage either. I wonder what happened.

Yes

Fucking love this guy

If life is without it's slings and arrows I wish not to live in that world good commentor.

Meme Man I think knowing what your getting yourself into and the pain of others haha, is much better then thinking your not going to get hurt. Basically to me that’s not showing everything that can and won’t go wrong. Need both sides.

If you weren't allowed to throw tools, cuss and bang the shit out of things, then the job would just not get done properly. Every good mechanic knows this.....

Only people that have been there before knows how horribly it really hurts, otherwise it looks like your average knee hit.

that doesnt happen to me because Im a backyard professional...cuz I have snapon tools...lol

if I'm not bleeding, I'm not working on a car.

I lose tools down in my fenders, bust knuckles, make up new cuss words, and get a little too much drink or smoke and turn every little job into a weekend long party in my garage. None of this do I regret because...cars

same here

And get donut pay for it

Better than spend more than 30k on the Hi 350z of Hi Low

"so you got a new show for me" "Yes sir I do. So it's gonna be me modding my Miata. that's about it" "Ok you're in"

I would have never guessed that lmao 😂

Experience is everything. People get discouraged in the learning process but forget the life long lesson you get. Plus its easier to do next time. Its why i go to the parts yard. Dont think u can replace a fuel pump? Try it at the yard, see whats hard whats easy to break, that sort of stuff.

Nathan Crouse watch the hi vs lo series the do a test with brakes and rotors and compare them

Mr.BigBoss7 technically doesn’t increase braking ability, but increases the ability of the brakes to dissipate heat (which becomes pretty important if you’re gonna be braking hard more than one time at a stoplight) and lets them maintain performance. Otherwise, braking performance is limited by tire grip.

@@kinafermusic2456 it can depending on design pad selection ect... Drilled rotors actually help in some cases, but many people keep saying they don't... It comes down to physics. Clamping force remains the same but with drilled rotors the overall pressure on the given rotor area is increased. That's the reason you see cross drilled rotors on race cars. Some pad materials need a certain pressures to work effectively, so drilled rotors can help dial that in. This is most noted with ceramic based pads.

@@SimanSlivar Not really true sorry. If clamping force remains the same, the "pressure" will stay the same, on any rotor. For example 10 newtons (force) being applied to a rotor. That force doesnt change from the amount of holes in it, or surface texture. Surface texture DOES effect braking though, just not the amount of holes. What the holes do in drilled rotors is dissipate heat better than non drilled rotors. Its kinda like opening all the windows in your house. The more windows, the better circulation of heat, which cools down your house! That is if theres no wind aha. So as a result of less heat, you get longer track time without brake fade. BUT one of the biggest problems with drilled rotors is the fact that when they heat up too much, they end up cracking or warping, which greatly effects your brakes!! Nowadays people are turning more towards Slotted Rotors, including GT3 race cars and other race cars. They dont crack as often or ever which is nice. What the slots do is release gases from under the pad, and also wipe the pad of any debris, oils , etc, etc. They dissipate more heat than solid rotors, but not as much as drilled rotors. But the fact that your rotors wont crack and completely fail is a pretty good trade off. Also pads dont need a certain pressure, but more so a certain temperature. Watch GT3 cars at the beginning of the race on the warm up lap. They accelerate really fast then slam on the brakes, trying to get heat in them. Also if you ever buy race pads for your daily car, i think they have a warning that they arent for street use, simply because your brakes dont get very hot driving on the street. sorry for the novel. not trying bash you for your comment, but theres some iffy info out there, and lets face it we're all here to learn! i know i am

@@kinafermusic2456 but if you put like 12 inch wide street slicks on something with brakes made for like 4 inch wide highway tires, I think you might run into your brake limit before the tire slips with stock brakes, I know I do with my rears on both cars, then again the cobra has one frozen open caliper and the gt has ceramic pads in back, but even when the gt had semi metallic pads in back, those 285 wide falken azenis fk510s DO NOT SKID, like doesn't even engage ABS

Same here but sometimes i let them transfer me to an agent and when i tell them my car is a 97 suzuki sidekick and i would love some extended warranty they hang up

@@JAK0E Maybe I should do the same and tell them I have a 93 Honda Accord and an 88 Ford F150.

@@dekoldrick haha I guess their scam is to get ahold of people with brand new cars idk. They don't like old cars. If you do talk to them let Hank or Mary know I miss their calls lol

I just dial a bunch of numbers until they hang up lol

Who called him? Who was that?

Yea body roll on avarage stock cars going mild speeds, But someone who will drive the car harder needs that rigidity and responsiveness wich will sometimes cause a loose a grip but ultimately makes the car more predictable to control .Roll at mild speeds can somewhat help balance cars but on agressive driving roll compromises a lot

Bro, I'm sitting here about to upgrade sway bars on my Y51

For reals that shit gets annoying

William Patton i get that same call and ive asked to be put on the no call list 2 times 😂

Relatable

Just start messing with them. I tell them that I'm dumping the body like they asked and that they better have my money when I get back.

I usually ask them if they'll pay me to repair my own car since I'm a mechanic 😂 I almost got one guy to say yes once

Yes this is important....the 8 bolts on swaybars seem like a 'quick project' but it can take a bit if you do it right.

@@stephanekarrasch9187 it can be fun, I guess I was being a bit overly dramatic about my Seicento.

Just make sure your first car isn’t something lame like a sun fire

Two years later and this is still the only comment pointing out he was wrong about the effects of sway bars. On actual race cars and OEM applications the sway bar rate is calculated as part of the spring rate. They work to balance the two for the expected conditions. A beefy sway bar on rough roads will almost certainly slow you down.

I was wondering what the catch was to this!! Coz if the positives outweigh the negatives by that much, then manufacturers would’ve had that installed on already out of the factory

They are installed from factory, just the manufacturer will try to balance performance and driveability. Considering that consumer cars don't generally live on tracks the sway bar from factory is more compliant to deal with rough roads.

Just to add in general, there are always compromises when it comes to sway bar stiffness, front and rear. Front: the stiffer, the more understeer, caused by removing weight from the tire getting the most traction (the outside, due to the larger radius from corner centerpoint). Though you are keeping more weight on the inside compared to a softer bar, you are exchanging downward force for lateral force. As an extreme example, if you were on ice, higher downward force on one tire is going to give you better grip than redistributing that force both laterally and to the other tire. The benefits of higher stiffness in the front will be better mid corner tracking and corner exit, as there will be less weight transfer occurring. Rear: The stiffer, the more oversteer and a higher chance of snap oversteer, especially in the wet. Same ice example applies above. The stiffer will help with corner entry/turn in, but will negatively affect corner exit because of the same grip changes and more oversteer nature of the setup. As with anything suspension related, there is a balance between all the components (spring rate, dampening, ride height(center of gravity), vehicle weight (corner weight more precisely) and sway bar stiffness being the big ones). Too stiff is just as bad as too soft. There are compromises no matter the setup, but what works the best falls on the conditions you plan on driving in.

@@winebartender6653 front bar does make the turn in feel better aswell but softer front feels less good but grips better

Quick someone make a video talking about how terrible miatas are so they can depreciate

Most Miata drivers I see are age 45+ white men. Very few people under that age. Which makes sense, because it's meant to be someone's second or third vehicle, not their only one.

TNT Doge is an amazing profile picture.

Haha same with E92, have to remove the entire rear subframe for the rear sway bar lol

I had a Volvo S40 which was the same platform. The sway bars, and practically everything suspension related was a total pain in the ass on that car lol

Dayyyyumn

Duh how else would you know. Psh. Reading it over it does look like a big ego though lol.

Trevor Fitz it sound like a really big ego but it’s still a nice swap, but isn’t it a little bit heavy or is it possible to put it far behind (front mid engine) for a good weight ratio?

@@davidhenneberg6772 it all depends on your driving style and how you like the feeling. I set mine up for drifting. Which is great for IMO. Different strokes for different folks
