Video

Thanks for this! I’m likely picking up a GC8 rally build in a couple of weeks, so this is invaluable stuff. Cheers

Great video. I'd be interested in a closer look at the fabrication of specific solutions. Eg "the scraper mounts on this bit of OEM suspension", "I've added these extra under-body mounting points in this manner" etc.

Any thoughts on using lock nuts for exhaust bolts? Not nylock of course, but there are other solutions out there that are metal only. I assume safety wire would be too much of a pain for removals

very helpful thanks

Another great video. Much appreciated 😊

Should have @ Benson for the hangers everywhere. Meanwhile I only run the rear ones haha.

Once again, really good practical tips, Dylan. Well done! Re the underbody protection: I used HDPE plastic and glued it to sections of aluminium which I attached to the underside using rivnuts through the floor. It adds more weight but it keeps the plastic flat and you can bend the leading edge up to protect the front foot wells. I also allowed the plastic to protrude out the sides a few inches to protect the sills (you call them rocker covers?).

Great video, Dylan. Some solid tips/tricks there. I always love hearing/seeing how other people do things. There are always a million ways to do something and everyone’s mileage may vary but it’s great to see what’s worked for you. I always use the “you can do it however you want, but this is what I found to work best for me” mentality. I couldn’t agree more on the stock fender liner and brake stuff. Some people really over complicate simple things like that. Big thing is securing whatever it is you decide to use. I personally use weld nuts for everything and you won’t find a plastic clip or through bolt on my cars. I haven’t seen the need to spend a few hours and $100 in material to make my own fender liners when the Chinese re pops for $8 each have worked thus far. I enjoy watching these videos and glad you take the time to do it because I can’t seem to find the motivation lol.

Really helpful thanks!!

What exhaust system is that? I have a 97 Outback that's an rebuilt ej25D. I love the factory lifted items and that it accepts my wrx parts.

I use metal springs/coils to protect the flexible brake hoses from stones. Just cut them to length and wrap them around the brake hose. I also use plastic Cable Management Sleeve / Flexible Coiled Cable Wrap. Cheap and easy to fit and replace - and you can wash the dirt out easily with a jet of water.

Who won, who's next? YOU DECIDE!

I was happy to see this on my feed :)

Goals

*BIG* Regional Energy here

That looks like loads of fun there! Nice driving!

Debating on downvote cuz Ben told me to, but that looked awesome!

*from both* OOOOOO lol incredible

Awesome driving!!

Awesome job this weekend bro! Thanks for taking the time to talk with me and take a pic! Yall were definitely crowd favorite in the spectator zones!

My steering column has a gear shift column next to it as it's in a van with a column shift. Can any of the housing be cut away to allow easy movement after installation?

What is the thickness of the uhmw sheet? 1/8"?

For install Bearing race never use hammer possible damage.

Hi sir Please, can you explain the replacement of the torque sensor. I'm from fiji 🇫🇯 Island 🏝.

This is awesome. Is that a UConn shirt! If it is nice to see CT representing. Question, do you only changed the grease not the bushing?

A normal hydaulic PS system doesn't help find center when you let go of the steering wheel either. The wheel centering force or car self steer comes from the castor setting of the front end. If the driver isn't applying a torque to the steering wheel, the valve is fully open and the fluid just bypasses in a traditional system, so it should be about the same as this Prius system... How well does this system work in practice? Do you like it? Is the feedback good/intuitive?

Thanks for this video, I was having trouble installing a pair of Intrax coilovers with ARC (not on a Subaru) and they stopped responding to my inquiries. This video helped me complete the install. Do you know what that torque spec is on the lower nut is?

Amazing video! I've volunteered for years and prepping a car to run this year, this is insanely valuable. Do you have a link to the abrasive sleeve used on the brake lines?

Sooo where can I find the rest of the video/s?? 🤔😉

What kind of grease you use?

That was a great drive. Your co-driver did very well to maintain composure as well. Lord knows I'd never be able to maintain that.

It for my mrk2 ford escort 1980 🤗🤗🤗

Hey bud people are using the opel corsa pas but they hard to get now im in new zealand and looking for an alternative obviously id need a rhd one so what model was the best one out of prius ?

i know this is super late, but this was super helpful and I appreciate your efforts so much!!! thank you for making rally learning resources more accessible!!!

This is sick!! Very committed, love it

sick

Great drive guys, and that horn is the best

4:35 is wild guys

so spyched to see this pop up! Congrats on the PB!!!!!

Looks like a blast.. can't wait to get out on the gravel again.

You put the hammer down this year! The crowd was roaring when you hit the big jump. I have a few clips of you on the highlights video I uploaded to YT.

Hey man, thank alot for the great infos really very helpful as Im about to do the same for a classic car. Just woundering, I've checked around and I see prius epas is about the same price as brz/frs epas. Since brz/frs newer would it work ok without connecting the canbus system (speed/angel sensors) or I just be better of with older epas and not deal with canbus?

man i love your videos, always help me learn haha. thank you for sharing the knowledge sharing!

Good video, cheap little HF hydraulic press will do wonders and you can service your pinion bearings with it too. I do the same thing with wheel bearings using the old races to drive new bearings home.

On my rally Flatout suspension GR40-PRO after 1000km the top connection to the reservoir leaked, like on your coilovers, I can’t find what can be repaired there, because all coilovers are not like that without an end connection.

I hope the threads at the bottom of the insert are much more sturdy than what we had in the DMS. Using an impact for the bottom nut was a big no no on the DMS (for thightening) as it would stretch the threads on the insert very quickly and they'd eventually break off. The Samsonas has the advantage of having a backing nut to sandwich the bottom mount between the 2 nuts. I'd be interested in your feedback on the wear you notice on the threads of the insert after a few services.

I like your use of the old bearing race to start the new one safely!👍

Do you have a link to the material you used for the mud flaps?

hello, can you tell me please what is difference between gen3 and gen2 steering columns? one have blue torque sensor while other black. Is there something to know?

I need power steering for a triumph project, but my experience with an electric assist Smart car seemed to make electric power steering undesirable since the power assist comes in pulses which is sometimes incompatible with my chosen steering input, sometimes even in a straight line. Is this Prius EPAS unit absolutely smooth, or can you feel the motor impulses?
