Just finished watching Chris Fixes video on coil overs

Why is he calling it the blue Miata if her name is molly ..... who are you and what did you do with the real gingium

I love the note on the left red miata at the start lol "Get in, Shut up,Hold On"

i remember when you made the original coilover video and you said : "i have no ideea what i'm doing so that's why some friends will come to help me" and now you are doing it yourself. not tryna be cringy but im proud of you and your channel. dosent matter if you watched someone else or something like that . all it matters is that you know how to do it keep up the great work and good luck !

I've been watching your content for awhile now. seeing your editing, video making and modding skills grow, I really enjoy your vids. your personality has always been great and inviting. Thank you for giving me videos to look forward to. You're a great dood/channel.

Nice to see more of the molly videos coming back again. Been here since the first few mods with molly, it has come a long way. I'm actually considering getting my first car soon, and you've been a huge inspiration. I would've loved to get a miata but #tallpeopleproblems B( Keep up the vids man, can't wait to see where this car will be in like a year from now.

Notification squad boi, love the vids keep it up been supporting you for ages now from South Wales in the UK

I wish more people could explain car parts just like you, easy to understand and just going straight to the point

Great to see install vids in the shop, awesome work Caleb!!

first Chris fix now gingium *youtube notification AR12 just uploaded Putting coil overs on my Subaru!!

Love this channel, watching it grow is fun

it's really nice how you explain the little things, it helps for people like myself that are still learning 😄

Holy shit! I remember subscribing to you at 40k subs and I also just saw that gingium has 222k and I assumed it was in the mid 100ks

+Gingium I see you're wearing a Z31 300zx shirt and as an owner I appreciate that! I think I spotted one across the street from the shop, think you could show us around it real quick?

OMG 221 k subs?! But you just had 10 k! Damn, keep it up bro!

Chrisfix

Love the Blue Miata...what rims/tires combo do you have? Also are you running any spacers etc? Thanks ahead of time for the response..and thx for the vid.

i love ur vids and i love the new vids that r in the shop

YES! Finally new coilovers, this car needs them! :)

Good job on improving the 'clapping transition' when you took em out, better than the clicking one from before!

first a new ChrisFix video, then my boi Caleb uploads a new video.....WHAT A GREAT THURSDAY :D!

dude i love your shirt funny thing is i have that car. liked and subed ps where did u get the shirt

I'm wondering, how hard is it to clap in the same spot when you do those cuts? It's a really cool effect

Shows 1/8" Steel mount and the 1/4" aluminum mount , says "its thicker, therefor it is stronger". Same for sleeve at bottom.

I love the direction your channel is going

Where did you get the tach? Will similar speedo fit too? Thanks for the demo. Just had back surgery last year, need softer ride

How did you work out the spring rates you went for did you do it properly and look at motion ratios and corner weights and do the math or just kind of guessed it based on other miatas

Gingium i think a lot of us would love it if you started putting the song names in the videos or in the description. That would help a lot! Thanks man, Love your vids!

Nice vid. What seats and rails are you using?

Gave this video a like as soon as the "oh my racelands work perfectly, I'm the fastest at my track!" "No you're not" part. Lol

Caleb I remember i subbed to you when you was at 11,000 sub and now your at 221,000 subs

wow now that theres cars in the garage it does look pretty big

I have a 2017 Nissan Maxima, is there any way I can make my ride smoother like say, a Cadillac smooth not feeling any bumps? What do I need to have done for that?

Gingium, I don't care for Miatas, but yours is the most beautiful Miata I've ever seen and I love it!

I've been fixing up my 94 miata mx5 and it still has it's original shocks, was wondering what the best ones were for a smooth ride. Any suggestions?

Went to bed after watching ChrisFix do a video about installing coilovers. Wake up to see a video of Gingium installing coilvers. Today's going to be a good day.

What's your opinion on Tein coilovers? Especially the EDFC Active Pro ones. Are they worth my bucks?

"We always shit" - Gingium 2017 14:54

just got these and had the same experience. Incredible upgrade.

Just some extra info on those spring perches. They don't actually change the spring rates at all. The spring rates are essentially constant on those springs. You do however adjust where in the dampers' stroke the car sits at ride height.

im glad you went from ricer to enthusiast! you're no longer a poser lol

I know Evan Shanks just got some Fortune Auto coilovers for his SC project. The swift springs are awesome, but pricey! Worth the extra cost?

Hahahahahahaha YES! “Oh my race lands work perfectly, I’m the fastest at the track” no your not, I’m sorry Dawg! Lololol 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂

Yay new video! ☺️

Just wondering, how much is it monthly to rent out a large shop like that? I'm really curious.

I think I may be getting a Miata..... with no roof, 1 front fender, no dash, and no headlights..... but at least it runs.

love it you are the best

i was always thinking: if i buy a miata, i'm going to need KW coilovers. but aren't they overkill?

Where do you get your t shirts from?

yeah the doors are back !! and I have to say Moly is verry clean I like it a lot

Gingiums awesome he actually listened to us and put the doors back on

13:12 Finally. Correct ride height on Molly. Good job, bro. Absolutely perfect would be the front level with the slightly higher rear. But I wouldn't complain about making the rear completely level with the slightly lower front, either. Just not that zero wheel gap stuff you were working with before. That crapo sucked.

Molly sounds nice and hearing the turbo fluttering was beautiful.

Does insurance cover you if you get in an accident with your aftermarket steering wheel? Thinking of buying one.

ahm ging have you been shooting nerfs on your garage lately? I saw some bullets under molly

I was going to get stance ultras but thinking getting hsd coilover s for 1 series bmw coupe what you think ??

now he needs to get some decent brakes!

If you blow your engine what engine would you go for KA or VQ V6 2.0 engine or 1.8 Miata engine like every one else has

Where did you get your knowledge of how to work on cars? Did you have someone show you stuff or did you just KZfaq stuff? I've always been curious

I have fortune autos on my s2k. Great quality. Amazing coilovers and superb customer service. :)

What is the name and size of your rims and tyres on the miata?

Gingium man! U got me foked, i told the police the speedlimit was a typo buh dey called da choppa and now im getting chased while typing this...

Also the old ones would have clicked and if you spin them enough one way the actual adjustor will unscrew from the piston rod

I notice that you have the z31 on your shirt. where did you buy that shirt if you dont mind me asking

the brapap plate needs to go on the rx-7

Shouldn't the car be on the ground before you fully tighten up the suspension bolts?

Hey Caleb, gotta ask, why did the video name change so it doesn't say ebay coil overs anymore?

your subs are creeping up there Gingium, almost passing Evan Shank.... Gang Shit homie!

Are you selling the old coilovers?

I had the sane coilovers. Even though they're softer rates, they're about on par in terms of ride/ performance as Megan ez streets. They did fine for daily and spirted driving. They're a little soft for the track though. I currently have a set of Vmaxx and they're wonderful. I think you're Yonaka coils may have been damaged when you had to break free that adjustment knob. But the main thing with these coilovers is that they're aren't valved for a Miata. The shock valving is very generic which adds to the discomforting ride quality.

I have never used Fortune coilovers so I can't comment on them. After many years of autocrossing and owning a '94 Miata since new I have found Bilstein coilovers to be one of the best. The Fortune website says they dyno-tune all of their shocks before shipping them. If so, do they include a dyno sheet? This is very important if you autocross or track the car. The dyno sheet will tell you the performance as well as any differences between the shocks as for as tuning goes. I do like that Fortune uses a monotube shock and Swift springs, which are some of the best springs out there. And price for the set is very reasonable.

Love the Z31 shirt!

or instead of the screwdriver use the wrenches that were supplied. Unless it states otherwise in the manual. I would assume that the screwdriver/hammer combo would slight damage the aluminum.

I love the clap-cut!

What about that RX-8 outside the shop @3:07? Rotary swap? aahah Great coilovers, they look sweet in green

You could make an extra pair of doors for the offroad Miata without any sheets on it. Just a frame with some bars for protection. And mirrors.

Dude I love coming home from school and seeing you uploaded like 10 mins ago. Keep up the dope videos man. Weird thing is I'm changing my coil overs tomorrow lol.

does gingium lift his miata on the frame rails? it hurts me seeing that 😭

Recently helped a friend install Fortune Auto 500 Series on his 95 Miata and was very impressed. They're Ohlins quality for 1/2 the cost and hand built to order! Quality is better than pretty much every coilover I've experienced. I want to get them for my 2016 Miata and do a comparison video. Sadly, I'll probably end up doing FM springs over stock Bilsteins because $$$ instead of $$$$ unless Fortune Auto decides to hook me up like they did you?

yes! a long episode!

Onestly love the car vids

11:55 spring preload does NOT change spring rate whatsoever. Yes it means you have to put more initial load on the spring before the spring starts to compress. But the weight of the car puts far more load on it than whatever preload you put on there. With the car's weight on the springs, the only thing that will change if you move the preload perches is the car's ride height - higher ride height if preload is increased, lower ride height if it's decreased. If you increase preload, and then shorten the shock body the same amount, ride height will be the same but you will have more compression travel, and less droop travel. And vice versa if you decrease preload and increase shock length, ride height remains the same but you will have less compression travel and more droop travel.

Whats the song playing during the removal of the old coilovers?

You've convinced me to swap out my Megan's for fortune auto

Are you getting Camber Caster Plates for Molly?

Good vid, one point of misinformation though. Changing preload has no effect on spring rates. Spring rates are static, all that is happening when you add preload is the point at which the spring begins to compress is slightly changed; beyond that point the compression is the same

what would you say about them now? 2 month review?

Where did you get that door stripe I want one on my Miata so bad

what jack is that? in the market for a new floor jack

Pre-loading the spring does NOT change the spring rate (the spring rate stays constant - Hooke's law). By pre-loading the spring it means that a greater force is needed to initially compress the spring a set amount, making it appear 'stiffer' compared to the unloaded spring. Nice video all the same. I agree that it's definitely worth saving up and spending a decent amount on better coilovers ¦8¬D

You should have the tires on and the weight of the vehicle on the ground before tightening the coils not a huge deal but in theory the bushing is more stressed since it was torqued with the suspension at its full travel, unless your tires off the ground 🙃 when driving it will spend 99% of the time articulation up and down not just up.

Tightening the 'pre-load' on the spring doesn't change the spring rate.

Dont forget Evan shanks miata boi

Is that a z31 shirt? If so, I need to know where to get one.

When Ging said he was getting coil overs I thought he meant the RX-7 not the miata..... Got excited for a minute

If you click on the description link to the coil overs, you’ll find a section where it says these coil overs are intended for off road use only and may never be installed on a vehicle that is going on public roads...

I went all out and bought Öhlins coilovers for my NA Miata, the difference is insane

Does anyone know the 0-60 time of that turbocharged Miata?

Shoutout to Greg peters? You not talking my uncle are you 😂😂😂

I just watched Chris Fix's video about coil overs last night 😂
