I was so close to complete the Mclaren 720s rebuild before Christmas but i have a vaild excuse on why i wasnt able to... in the meantime ive taken a trip to Copart to collect a new project car then headed over to @REPerformanceUK to collect my Twin Turbo Gallardo after some work.
Thanks to @TopazDetailing for sorting the Lamborghini Murcielago out!

Got to agree. Hopefully it doesnt end up like dde’s.. sometimes i feel like they make videos just to make videos and that can get boring watching them talk about nothing .

To stop the flickering a capacitor might work. A Capacitor is like a water reservoir for but for electricity. So, if you have messy power coming in, it will flow evenly out the other side of the capacitor.

@JoeBob79569 5 ай бұрын

@@natedostalik3538 Yea, I've heard of "anti-flicker" resistors alright, but I don't really understand how they'd fix the problem (even though they apparently do), unless maybe the input voltage was too high, or it was spiking? Since resistors basically just lower the voltage and current in the circuit. Whereas a capacitor is more like the cold water storage tank in your attic, so that you get a constant flow of water, and you don't get scorched if somebody runs the tap when you're in the shower..

The flickering thing happens on motorbikes too. Grab an Oxford indicator resistor from a motorbike shop and you'll be set. Also with LED strip's, if you rough up the silicon cover of the strip, it will give a more even light along the length instead of individual lights. Love the videos, keep it up mate, you've inspired me to get cracking on my TT

I have this flickering with my Angel eyes in my Peugeot 206 they are wired in via “parking” lights do you reckon i need a resistor in it to?

@MrHeald22 5 ай бұрын

If the parking light loom is configured for higher power delivery than then lights need (like from Halogen or Xenon to LED) a resistor typically fixes it. Resistors are usually pretty cheap, so I'd recommend giving it a go@@Ginokhu

I like the fact that they ran the intakes from the turbos to the rear upper fender (or wing) vents on the Gallardo. And that they put enclosed air filters with that duct work that goes up to those top fender grilles. And the center exhaust with dumps looks awesome. I think the factory air boxes have duct work that goes to those rear top grills so well done lol. Gotta make it factory or better I always say lol. Happy Holidays 🎄
