This channel is a gem. Calm demeanor with no unnecessary vlog content is a breath of fresh air for a KZfaq car build series.

"I'll just do this for now." Famous last words.

"Maybe I'll just work on it a little bit" for an engineer means lots of changes.

10 minutes every week or so, just isn't enough. I think I've become a 'Superfast Mat' addict. There must be a group somewhere, I can go to and talk about my feelings. Until I find it......All hail the algorithm.

I feel that you have tragically overlooked a “drive by wire” system that is not only an order of magnitude more complex, but would allow for the steering wheel to drop from the ceiling or be attached to another car altogether.

Putting off must-do projects to do fun and interesting projects is the bane of my existence.

"It works, for now" so basically it's going to stay like that forever?

"how to make a less than 10 minute video more interesting than a regular youtuber 30 minute video" - By Matt, The SuperFast

Superfast Matt is the antidote for all the bro'd out automotive KZfaq channels. Consistently funny, smart and self deprecating. Just wondering, anyone else miss four-eyed Matt?

Hands down one of my favorite channels to watch. I love the "super genius" mixed with "f this math right here" part of your clips!!!

Absolutely nothing wrong with getting side tracked on an unnecessary complication ;)

The real reason I watch your channel is that I share that thinking of "I shouldn't do that at all. At least not right now. Okay, I am doing that thing tomorrow."

Super Fast Matt or how I learned to love the algorithm. 😀

Oh, we are back to the classic "all hail the algorithm" outro, I was missing that.

Matt you're my favorite Engineer. They say engineers cant wrench or machine but you seem to be good at everything!

"Unnecessary complexity" spoken like a true engineer!!!!!!

Hey, I have almost that exact same lathe! Its one of those tools that once you have one you just endup using it for EVERYTHING 🤣, even when its super overkill.

Ah yes "just a little bit" can't wait for the 30 hour montage of matt working on it

As an pilot and engineer I really like your videos. Just straight talk and information. Great...👍👍👍

Oshcut's laser cutting can bend your metal as well, if you dont wanna use a bench vice.

YAY.. The Jag build is progressing once again!! You know what? I am thrilled, and a huge fan of your channel. Screw the Algorithm Just keep those excellent puns and video's coming. Besides' it's too late I already subscribed and clicked that button a long time ago, but I click that THUMBS UP Icon for all your content. Even those that are far removed from being about the JAG. I am a FAN. NO not a TESLA fanboy. But this Jag is turning me into one. BEST build on the internet thus far.

Wow, when I saw those u-joints out of phase I started composing an explanation for you in my head. Glad to see it was part of the mock up and you already knew about phasing!! I agree, we need more superfast.

Your super clear description of the parts necessary to connect all the various pieces together is making my head explode I'm sure someone will look at the fabulous end product and say " Hey, I could have done this." Highly unlikely.

Your "I'll just do this for now" engineering is still 10x better than most of ours "perfect that's exactly what I wanted" engineering will ever be. Thanks for setting the bar way to high lol.

I fell asleep half way through this vid. Still gave it a thumbs up because it is SuperfastMatt. I will have nightmares about steering columns with 1000 universal joints tonight.!

Nice way to showcase steering solutions, and what compromises you make for the less ideal, the good, and the gooder. All hail the algorithm!

I like the direction this steering is going. Very cool turn signal idea.

this is the only channel i have notifications on for a reason

Still think the steering column is a bit of a javelin! I would go for a collapsible column, one of those perforated tube jobs. Amazed the authorities let you use that setup.

Love the way these videos are presented All hail the algorithm

Your videos remind me of This Old Tony, it would be great to see you guys collaborate one day

Steering column + wheel as potato masher is a new image for me. Thanks.

I’m glad you understand the appeal of unnecessary complexity❤️

I'm most impressed that this car could go all the way around the world in a straight line, if only there was a road.

Continues to be my favorite build on KZfaq... Nice job Matt!

"...but then I remembered that math is stupid and I don't care..." That had me cracking up!

All hail the algorithm! What Jeff said, 'cos he knows from experience. 😉 I love your way of thinking as much as your work.

Doesn't matter what I am doing, when I get notification that Matt has a new video, I am watching is as soon as possible. Nothing I like better than unnecessary complications, it is the reason my MGB now has a custom wiring harness and Deutsch connectors everywhere. Thanks for taking us along on this wild ride. Go Brandon.

Still watching because although the content has no relevance to anything in ever likely to do, it's really interesting and entertaining. Love it.

Brilliant as always! Work always stops to watch a superfast!

Whew, that steering setup! I just mounted the motor in the cab behind the steering wheel and only using 2 u joints in the whole thing.

AvE, This Old Tony, SuperfastMatt combined project. The humor would be world class.

"Your the potato." I am laughing so hard.

All hail the algorithm, wish it showed me your channel sooner! This is great stuff, keep it up!

Hello algorithm. This was a terrific episode. We all learned a lot. Join us sometime, won't you?

Unnecessary Complexity.... You're speaking my language 👍

Unnecessary complexity is why I love this channel. Plus the jokes.

So glad you were on Hoonigan. Your channel has become one of my favorites just as fast as vice grip garage has

Great video!! Love the steering updates!!!

Love your content! Love it!

I will watch any video you put out immediately now lmao

It works for now is a nice way to say it's permanent. All hail the algorithm.

This man has so much knowledge

Man I love this! Well done mate.

Loving your explanations!

Thumbs up for the Ghostbusters reference. Love these videos.

I said to myself when you were installing the EV steering, that you should have made a (rather complex I admit) bracket to mount the steering box/motor at a angle to better match the steering column. Yeah it woulda looked kinda funky at a angle on the firewall, but would have deleted at least 2 of the U-joints, which you have like 15 now lol. (P.s., I'm just rambling, I have no idea how to do most this stuff)

Thank you for creating this content. Extremely informative

That turn signal switch in the center of the wheel is sweet. I wish Tesla could figure out a way to put turn signals in the same place no matter how far you've turned the wheel.

Im really loving this project. Thank goodness you don't release 4 x 1 hour episodes a week. I would spend too much time watching those instead of fixing my own car

Finally! I just finished binging your video's a couple days ago and was waiting for a new one!

Keep it up! Your Jag will be an amazing weekend ride thanks for sharing

"It works, for now" is the statement of a permanent solution

Matt you may be the best video maker in this whole platform. It became pretty clear to me with the pikes peak video but everything is gold, hilarious and you know your stuff. Keep it up always puts me in a good mood.

Yeah, that Ghostbuster clip gets you a thumbs up :D.

Excellent solution to the steering issues

Love the "unnecessary complexity" music jam!

Looks great

Bloody legend! Great vids.

The first time I designed steering for a truck I learned what people meant by bumpsteer. Thankfully I lived to attempt more deathtraps. Now I'm going to look up how you design a front suspension with a rack.

Well Done as usual.

Beautiful steering wheel. 👍

Thumbs up for showing some Murray.

i am so happy i found your channel

Was there not a collapsible column that could be adapted to fit? I know that in the 1950s they were quite happy to point spears at the drivers, but it's not considered to be desirable these days.

Great as always Matt - all hail the thingy…

You impressed me, so I subscribed! I am rebuilding a 56 Bug, with a 58 Mercury motor and a whole bunch of recycled and fabricated parts.

AMAZINGNES!!!

I've read there are constant velocity joints, which are usually used on the steering. So this way there would be no problem with the different angles.

The good thing about this build is with all the custom work & changes you'll have most of a car for your next project, loosely based around a Mustang 2.

This man is a genius

Mass hysteria! 😂😂😂❤ Good luck with "a little bit of work" on your new steering. Cheers 🍻

As long as this has been going on... still getting more done than me and my "projects".... All Hail the Algorithm!

Looking forward to the next video on the completed drop box and turn signal.

All hail unnecessary complexity 😉. Matts uploading every few days keep us sane during the long months between binky updates. His humour and pacing is in a class of its own. Yay. I'll say that again. Yay.

You might want to look at Constant Velocity joints for that steering. You may have already considered this already but just in case, here’s a free idea 😋

This channel is proof that you don't need 15 minutes of rambling to crack a joke and get a part finished for your project car. Keep it up Matt, I don't even mind that electric cars will take over the world anymore 👍

Ah, universal joint phasing. Reminds me of the Lego Defender build, and all it's problems!

All hail the algorithm. Oh and loving your work.

That drop box is a great idea.

All hail!

I never knew of a turn signal like that but now I wish they were all like that

Nice Nardi!

You know the schedule of a project is going to hell when the lead engineer says "Maybe I'll just work on it a little bit". AHTA

i want this channel to be in the 1 million + sub range . Hell Hail the Algo!

"Maybe I'll work on that later." -said no engineer ever.

All hail SuperFastMatt

Looks like an application for a flex drive to me. Bigger version of the flexible extensions for rotary tools.

Really enjoying all of this. I’m building some cars, and I can only wish I had half of your knowledge and skills, Matt! But.. I have to also say that I’m concerned that the steering column isn’t collapsible! Did I miss something?

Years ago an old fella who was into yank cars had a Checker cab it had a Tripex chain right hand drive conversion , to me me it looked dodgey as hell , then a few years later a mate bought a Jeep Cherokee with a similar setup don't know where it was done , it had a bloody big box in the footwell , I have no problems driving left hookers my brothers had loads , just rambling on when you mentioned drop boxes this sprung to mind LOL , good build though keep up the overcomplicated work .
