We buy lowering springs, not cause we are on a budget, because we have MagnaRide Adaptive dampers and don't want to give up that option, so we get lowering springs.

Tein springs are really good

You need to get to the point much faster

I can get shell 93 or Chevron 94 where I live I used to run shell 93 on my cammed and tuned focus with a modified engine but use Costco 91 in my stock 07 g35 sedan

Is it hypothetically possible to make time capsule for thousand years, by putting car in bunker somewhere in place with permafrost? like they do with seed samples to preserve them for future generations. Humidity there is extremely low, and no way someone gonna find car there anytime soon)

Need to lower my Evoque an inch with getting rid of my magnetic shocks and dampers.

Well BC's are chinesium so...

What do u recommend for nissan micra2019 k13 as lowering springs with kyb shock

I have a Honda Accord Touring I love, low mileage, less than 10k.year. Have a history of being brake eaters. Can you recommend a premium rotor/calliper when the time comes?

Thanks fir the video. Please create a video on drum and shoes. Thank you

What if tire on the side had tiny cracks? Would it consider bad tire?

Thanks for the informative video. I'm on Eibach progresssives in Singapore. IMHO the higher the price the better it gets..

Break fluid dissipates heat. Lol. Whut?

In this video you muddled two properties of gasoline together, which (except for both being formulated into gasoline) have nothing to do with each other: Octane effects the stability of the gasoline as it is exposed to heat and pressure - among other things high octane prevents pre-ignition. Top Tier is a higher level of detergents which keep fuel system components clean and reduces carbon deposits. Both 87 and 93 octane gasoline can be Top Tier certified, but not 91 - 93 octane fuel is Top Tier. Thanks for adding to consumer confusion about gasoline!

if you intentionally make your car louder, you are more likely to have a smaller weener

Octane does NOT affect HP numbers to any noticeable degree dude. There is a plethora of real world dyno testing to verify this.

Got one too low already

Great info. I am just learning about "Top Tier" gas. The big BUT, is about octane. If your car is designed to run on 85 octane gas,,,,, it will develop less power if you use 91 octane. 91 octane actually contains less power than 85 octane, and is why it has less tendency to knock.

Inconel is not very hard to weld. Most TIG rods used for stainless welding are Inconel 600 or 625. Although, it is slightly heavier then iron, a paper thin tube 0.5mm or 0.019". In the end, Inconel Exhaust is lighter then any other material. The problem is initial cost at $200 per foot and that it is hard to bend and cut with usual tools. It cuts and bends just fine but it takes a lot of force or a carbide cut-off wheel. Inconel turns green (color of Nickel oxide, this is why emeralds are green) in use. People use 1/8" stainless pipe for turbo headers because cheap 304 stainless will corrode, form scale and flake off. 321 or 347 stainless is best for exhaust but it is more expensive. Do not forget that exhaust comes out at 850 to 1,100C, but it cools rapidly, especially after a turbo. Hence, there is a good case for Inconel + stainless exhaust. Aluminum does not corrode under normal conditions, even at higher temperature, because it forms an oxide layer (which is the second hardest substance after diamonds and what the sapphires and most industrial sand paper are made of). However, chlorine (as in the table salt and what is spread on the roads to melt snow) will quickly dissolve aluminum oxide and react with aluminum at any temperature! Chlorine will attack steel and most stainless, just as well. For the best exhaust sound just use copper or bronze pipe at the end of the exhaust (copper and silver alloys are used for church bells and musical instruments). It is cheap and more rust resistant then stainless.

Talking Mods - Your statement that there's no advantage to cross drilled rotors is not at all accurate. Cross drilling will help reduce heat and thus improve braking performance. Less noticeable for regular street driving, but definitely an improvement for track driving or heavy street use.

I'm sorry if it has already been mentioned prior to this comment but the info about brake fluid being used to cool the brakes is not its purpose. its primary purpose is to provide hydraulic pressure to squeeze the pads against the rotating disc. Having better grades of brake fluid help provide a more consistent brake pressure as the heat transferred from the pads and rotors to the caliper thin the fluid. The higher the boiling point the longer the fluid can resist the heat and therefore thinning reducing brake force. In other words, less brake fade over repeated stops.

Anyone know where I can get more info on the build? I’m mainly looking for suspension set up and wheel/tire specs. I have an airlift kit from a previous car I wanna use and I wanna get the widebody kit.

Brake fluid doesn't cool the brake pad, calipers or anything else! High boiling point is so any moisture in your brake fluid doesn't turn to steam. What are you trying to say?

Perfect video very informative

So I just wanted to know do you think it’s stupid to lower a 2024 Chevy Malibu I was thinking of going with coilovers. but I haven’t seen too many Malibu’s around my city or surrounding cities. I do see them other places and especially in other states but I’m in California just wanted to know is it OK to lower Malibu or

Does spoiler helps on a FWD? I was confused on the end.

Organic are dogshit. Semi metalic or ceramic break pads are the king. Drilled rotors are the best cause they let break pad gases go away making the pads and discs to have better contact during racing or downhill breaking!

So much misinformation...😵‍💫

AGAIN !!! ALLL giber gabir bulllllll shittttttttttttt

Rarely needed but rollover bars as off roaders have a habit of rolling and most are not strong enough to take there own weight.

Great video, man. Thanks for your hard work.

Good video but do you guys have modified hub centric rings to fit over sized rotors on my VW Tiguan??

I have a 2023 Audi RS3. I want to lower about an inch or so. I don’t want to have issues with curb stops, and speed bumps. Also turning and going over a bump I don’t want any rubbing. My desire is to close the gap a little and reduce body roll. What would be the best choice for springs? Any help is appreciated.

Love the accountability here Job well done 👍🏾 (5)⭐️ Do another video about price to make tire 🛞 price to wholesaler delivery fee market price rate for tires 🛞

I don’t know much about brakes, but the whole “cross drilled” argument, they in theory are supposed to expel heat and prevent warping from them being cooler when hitting water.

Pretty good job covering that stuff in a short time. You managed to get in a sentence on cross drilling and F1 cars which I thought was good. Cross-drilling is very important for motorcycles because with a solid rotor in the rain that is pucker time unless you constantly drag to front brakes. Waste of time/money for normal cars but it looks cool for guys who want that. Had some minor disagreement on organic pads - I don't think Tire Rack sells any organic pads so they're not in demand ?

Actually, you might mention that stainless steel braided brake lines take the "Sponginess" out of braking because they don't expand and contract nearly as much as rubber brake line hoses do. This is particularly noticeable on Motorcycles, and yes it does increase confidence, making the bike feel more "Sure Footed". Also, heat dissipation is not a big factor when you have a Hybrid or Electric car with Dynamic braking as most of the energy in heat normally dissipated in the brakes instead goes back into charging the battery. Although I guess this channel is about automotive performance?

PBM is da way

More of a fan of high speed off road in like an f-150 than crawling but still impressive.

Too bad you are not a brake specialist!!

Didn't help Paul walker

Thanks

The information i got about slotted/ drill-slotted rotors is that thoes rotors dissabates Heat, which means the rotors will not heat up as much like standard roters ,which makes the pads last longer, nuff-said 😮😊

I'm very interested in upgrading the calipers on my vehicle from floating to fixed because I am so beyond tired of them sticking and causing issues like warped rotors, overheating brakes, loss of acceleration, increased pad wear, loss of fuel economy, etc. I noticed that many of the fixed calipers have slots for rapidly changing pads, which I think is cool for a track, but I don't care much about that for a daily driven street car. I do care a lot about the pads retracting with the pistons away from the rotors though to prevent sticking pads or pads that are constantly in contact with the rotor surface. Because of the slide through design, I've noticed that a lot of the pads for fixed calipers don't come with metal springs or tabs that hold them in place against the piston like what is typically found in floating calipers. Because I wouldn't be tracking my car, ever, I would much rather sacrifice the ability to quickly change pads to have them fixed to the pistons and then just have to remove the caliper when I want to change pads (~30,000-50,000 miles). Do these types of brake pads, with metal springs/tabs, exist for fixed piston calipers? Thanks for posting this informative video for beginners!
