That's a good suggestion.

@@freesoul9324 - I hope they see this and lots of people upvote it. That way, they'll have a better chance of seeing it.

I was thinking about the same

@@luklukk A Lada folks would agree!

That would be so easy to see

In before the tabloid "news" programs grab the story "that the mechanics dont want you to know" angle grinder clutch disc, machines flywheel as you use it so when its due for new clutch, flywheel already machined. 🤣🤣🤣

I see no way of this going wrong This is perfect

Great point!

Tahhhhhhccckkhh?

This was probably filmed a long time ago

I just got one for free out of a graphite shop...it's clapped out

That's a good tip

Good tip, that grinding dust gets everywhere

Or you can go to the parts store

@@leewriter4656 - Or, Harbor Freight Tools!

wait till he breaks that disc in your just seeing how well it works with the edge right now wait till it wear to having the whole disc touching then you're going to see some serious shit🤣

It’s a good idea , but they’ve done a video making the car drive forward in reverse before

a (analog carburated) engine can run backwards, tried that as kid with a moped, you need to adjust spark timing, alternator might be a problem as it contains transistor and diodes to adjust magnetic field & polarity and camshaft belt/chain is setup to run in one direction.

I'm glad they didn't push it to limits though bc then we see the wear pattern as opposed to just watching them sweep up bits and dust lol.

There's videos of that on KZfaq. Doable, the biggest issue is the alternator - honestly you don't really have to change anything mechanically in the engine. Timing, spark, lots of determination and go

@@AnalogDude_ a 2 stroke engine will. but a 4 stroke will need a LOT more changed than that.

It would definitely be cheaper to make the disk rather than buying a whole new one lol

Its probably not legal in russia to drive a lada with a clutch made from an angle grinder disk.

@@Matt-cl4mp you're funny

@@Matt-cl4mp If something is not legal "because it is not usual and non-industry-supporting stuff" - then you are somewhere in Central Europe 😧 I guess anywhere else on this planet they don't give a sh*t about such "legality" details.... Greetings from Austria

@@Matt-cl4mp Show me the regulation, at least in the US unless its a safety concern there is no regulation stating you can't use aftermarket clutch disks (just like I have an aftermarket radiator in my car that's superior to OEM), or that you can't change the windshield wipers or put in different transmissions or anything else like that. The government doesn't approve anything here (even DOT rated helmets are not tested by anyone in government, even that is self certified by the manufacturer and you just have to take their word that they actually tested them, I can make my own DOT rated helmets and slap the sticker on a bucket of foam and tape). There would never be any innovation if companies or individuals couldn't make any new or different parts, it simply wouldn't be possible to develop anything new.

you know why it works so well cause the grinder disc is made to grab so it can cut not surprising it works as a clutch not sure how long it would last compare to a real clutch, he should test it against one and put the car ir reverse while driving forwards and see which lasts longer against that abuse🤣🤣🤣

Yes please

Long term testing isn't practical unless done on public roads. What they really should have done was a torture test.

How to kill someone 101

Pressure plate too!!!

Or piston rings and fix some cylinders if those walls are too smooth and dosen't keep any oil in grooves....

Cruel

I've always wondered if grease could work

And replace the mayonnaise with motor oil! 😁

Just add water 🤣

if they can get it as a Junker then they do yay😃

Ten years later... "We have this x electric car, and we have other set of batteries too. Let's double the voltage and see how it happens.. I know it burns, but how it burns 🔥 "

before being a Lada, they were a Fiat 124 originally. VAZ bnought the rights to it when Fiat scrapped it as a current model, but they put locally sourced, cheaper engines in them, instead of the Fiat twin cam (from memory) engines, and the Lada was born!

The grinding disc is designed to remove metal. In short order the flywheel and pressure plate will lose enough material that the clutch ceases to function.

@@Joshie2256 I imagine this custom clutch would last longer if used like an on off switch so as to give the disc less time to abrade the flywheel and pressure plate. Also, if given time to make the disc wear enough to sit flat against the flywheel and pressure plate, making full contact with them, there would be less abrasion because the full force of the pressure plate would be spread more evenly across the disc.

@@Dappersworth just press the brake and the gas at the same time and let the clutch burn

I strongly doubt it'll perform better, since automobile manufacturers would use that instead cause it'd be cheaper, but i do suspect it'll hold a good time tho

Perhaps... but it did work very well. I wish he would have did a bit more driving with it.

yassss

in a way they already did that with the 5 (i think it was) flywheels on an engine

Seeing as it performed as a stock clutch using only 5% of the available surface area, if you let that wear in, it wouldn't be street drivable. You'd have a goddamned Stage 6 racing clutch.

i mean thw flywheel! not the plate lol
