This is awesome seeing Fab Daddy finally getting something for himself. He works so hard and deserves to have a bit of a reward. It's nice to finish your project and actually get to enjoy it and be proud of it.
FAB DADDY
Seriously. Isaiah seems like a crucial member of the team.
I love isaiah, he definitely makes the channel a much better place. Him and Rob work so well together, hope to see more of his stuff.
Awesome seeing fab daddy's daddy....
Fab Daddy and Dahmmy Mommy?
The RX8 is emotional blackmail for Rob, he’s just gotta get it done cuz we like it and we like Isaiah
Isaiah is the man
Fab daddy
📠
THIS. 🤣🤣🤣
@@Nicole-mn9oy no.
I hope Isaiah’s pops is proud of him, this young man at 25 has more skills than most older hardcore fabricators have
And a Rx8 with a R33 Wing
Cheeeeeee
Isaiah is seriously only 25? Damn, he's younger than me
wait Isaiah is that young ? Jeez I thought he was older than me.
big thanks to Rob, absolutely feeling spoiled with these longer form content videos.
shout out to Isiah's dad! 🙏always honor and respect our generations that come before and taught us how.
RX8 is looking good, but probably gonna need a new hood wrap after the nos failure melts it.
it just might get a bit of #noriyaro bearcan car feel.
Thank you rob for recognizing how important Isaiah is to this channel.
Can’t wait to see what Isaiah has planned for that baby. He’s Robs wild child right next to the shop kitty
pretty sure he want's to put a 3 rotor into it
@@ineedsomemilk6610 do a 9 rotor, mounted on a roof rack. worlds first rotary with a vertical driveshaft going down through trunk? lmao.
Thank for putting the RX8 on the channel. Honestly it is the easiest rotary for the average person to obtain and your breathing fresh energy into a lot of people's dreams.
Easiest to obtain because theyre worthless
One thing about this channel that is so far above many other automotive youtubers is that so much work is completed in one video versus breaking the work into 5 separate videos. I have always noticed this when watching yalls videos, please keep it up!
It looks ace, but that bonnet gap would drive me crazy
They don't know what a bonnet is, Hood to them
@@riderzinc That gap is big enough, everyone got it LOL
Its good for extra cooling
@@riderzinc The internet has exposed most everyone to Brit speak. We know now. I catch myself saying bollocks and shite and stuff all the time.
ahaha never noticed until i read this comment lol
The superior chassis now even has the looks to stand up for itself
@Nirus banyu reported
Whilst I really dig what Robs been doing, I don't think of this would have been possible without Isaiah. Also shout out to Isaiah's father, must be so proud to see his boy flourish and achieve so much. Keep it going guys!
you KNOW it is serious when Dad turns up to do the tinting!
I have never seen this wrap thing before. Absolutely gobsmacked.
Rob in near tears - absolutely hilarious. YES Rob, he is absolutely critical.
A great session. Thank you!
the rx8s finally getting the love it deserves!
When I mount a spoiler on the boot I use the stud method with one modification, I put toothpaste on the studs so when put in place it leaves the toothpaste as a witness mark for the hole position.
The camaraderie you all share in the shop is awesome to see. Everyone can tell you all love what you do and working together. Cheers!
You are one of the few channels where it really seems like you are having fun working hard and it's not all for the camera.
Hey, I'm a tint geek. UV rays aren't responsible for the majority of the sun's heat - you can thank infrared for that. Ceramic tint is extremely effective at blocking IR, it's a bit pricey but quality tint is always worth it.
Thanks to all of you guys in the shop for the awesome content!
Based tinter
Also...automotive glass already blocks most UV as is. Still Really nice tint job tho!
I think he might be talking about getting burned by UV but interesting info nonetheless. Especially as an Australian, way too hot around here right now
@@hambo6713 so it is correct that UV causes both sunburn and the majority of material damage. Like Steve said, most automotive glass already blocks the majority of UV.
The cool thing about ceramic tint is that you can get it in shades as light as 80% VLT(visual light transmission) and it still blocks a ton of heat.
There has been a common misconception for years that a darker tint makes for cooler interior temps, but that's patently false. If you're in Aussieland, get yourself some nice ceramic tint and it'll change your commute big time 👍
Infrared is the heat, UV is what alters your DNA so your cells commit sudoku to keep you from getting skin cancer
I will NEVER complain that these videos are too long :)
RX-8 looks sick guys. The wheels looks great on there. Robs new build is sick too though 👍
Thank you Rob for giving Isaiah some content! He deserves it!! Yall make amazing videos!!!
Rob... You have to admit that the chassis and handling of the RX-8 is amazing. You may not like the styling or engine but everything else is great
What was Rob mumbling about the RX8 chassis during that part when he was bitching?
Would be nice to see an rx7 body on rx8 chassis B is for build style
All three rx7z haves great handling but the rx8 is smooth as butter! Owned all three gens and one 04 rx8! Love Mazda Racing !
I love the styling of the RX8 personally, the only let down is the motor.
I love my RX8 still tho.
I have an RX-8 too and I like how it looks. I'm actually trying to decide between the R-Magic Bodykit (not the widebody) and the Veilside D1-GT (Neela's RX-8 from Tokyo Drift)
Instead of scratching the wrap to find the holes for the wing. Put grease on the end of the studs and put it down and then drill the holes
Thank you I needed that
Or dykem blue
Great content guys. I love how the rx8 is looking. Didn’t think much of it till you guys started doing this. And congrats Isaiah you got a sick car now
The superior chasis looking pretty damn nice.
13:30 What you're referring to are called transfer punches. They come in all sorts of sizes, super handy when reverse engineering.
Thank you Rob for appreciating Isaiah’s work and helping him as he helps you.
You all are amazing people. Much appreciated 👍🏻
Isaiah's car looks dope as fuck now, thanks daddy Rob for helping create such a beautiful masterpiece.
Love that tint. Super cool seeing his dad come out and help.
Great video daddy dahm
Love the long videos, ty Rob!
Seeing the wrapped RX-8 in the last few videos was quite the tease.
Watching you guys enjoy what you're doing, and doing it well, makes for great content.
It'll be nice to see these cars going around a track.
It makes me envious. That shop is amazing.
i dont know how to describe it, but its almost more fun watching rob work on a car he doesnt care about. no stress in his eyes, back to basics of working on cars with your friends. sometimes its nice to reflect on what we have and appreciate those around us.
51+minutes of this awesome channel! You guys put on a good show, entertaining, good builds and gratuitous locker room humor👏 You boys make me proud😅
Now want more RX8! 😁 Actually really like the rx8 concept and way more affordable than a for example a Lotus Evora and just as much fun. Admit you love the RX8, the hurting was visible when Isaiah messed up the door 🤣 Great to see you guys work on the car and curious whats next in the transformation.
I'm all for giving affordable, well designed cars the praise they deserve especially when compared to more expensive cars but come on; the Evora isn't the car to make that point with
@@webb2800 ok may be a “bit” different league, but you would be amazed hoe close it comes to handling and feel compared to a first series non supercharged Evora. And the concepts are quite similar in a way
This is now my go to channel for RX8 content! Maybe next you could do a how to on underglow lighting!
You’re gonna make Rob throw up lol.
Gotta love Isaiah, his energy is so good. Shout out to Rob for actually letting him do this masterpiece!
The hands go up for touchdowns and field goals - Rob was correct haha great content fellas 👏🏻
Honestly, I usually really don't like the look of RX8's but this came out so good!!
So hyped for the RX-8!
That zoom in on Robs face and the “what in the fuck are you saying” line had me rolling 😂
My only rotary was the rx-8 so i am eternally grateful for the content. Some day i'll ascend to the next level but till then make yours level 2 then 3, etc. Thanks guys.
Thanks rob for the rx8 content being able to happen. You know you love it.
Yesssss! Been waiting for this video to drop. Happy to see Isaiah getting in on the rotary fun
Very wholesome to see Isiah's dad help out his build
Love the finish on the rx8 can’t wait to see what else is to come, Rob show some love and help your bro out to tune this thing to be a beast like your beasts!!!
4:40 A lot of Rx8's are known to have crappy seals in the rear lights, mine would fill with water. Someone probably gunked it
Mazdas*
Im fighting my 323 atm, after some silocone that are tight, but i had to get new gaskets
@@glurak888 what body of your 323 is it?
@@extec101 Compact 3 door
323 C BG '93
@@glurak888 i had 3 of those but they are gone now, one got hit by a truck the other two got a bad infection of rust.
do you got the rear light with a bend in them or the standing one?
the standing one got a bad habbit of leaking.
Can't wait to see this done!!! Maybe one day I'll finally take the first step in restomodding my R3. This inspires.
Damn! It's like a tv series watching these new videos. I love it!
So glad this is now an RX-8 channel
I really like that color a lot. Great choice. Makes the Rx 8 nicer looking for sure. It's starting to grow on me.
really cool to see Isaiah's dad help with his car
Not usually a fan of the color orange on anything but that car looks great. Its like a burnt orange, With those wheels too, it's transformed the car.
I’m really glad that you recognize Isaiahs value he is a huge part of your channel and it would not be the same with out him rob your the man but you guys do better as a team !!! And that’s even better keep building some cool shit together
Great job on the rap for the RX-8 Rob. That’s the way you should treat your employees 👍🏾
this honestly turned out super cool despite me dying to see the 4 rotor get spiffed up in carbon panels. I appreciated this build and the long video for its glow up
I'm just glad to see content from Rob while waiting for stuff for the 4 rotor.
@@wrifraff agreed, and honestly i love Isaiah content too so it really worked out 😂😂
I absolutely LOVE the Rx8! Superior chassis and you guys did a great job, looks great.
I'm honestly loving this series, so comforting. Best wrapping/revealing video on YT so far 💕
Dude! These longer videos are the best! 2022 already turning out to be a good year!
Rob, you were actually right about the football thing. Don't let these guys manipulate you!
That part was killing me
@@mckinleyd603 I was cringing the whole time lol
This video is the most wholesome video I’ve scene yet all the help and team work aswell as fabdaddys daddy showing up to help to is just amazing
Thank u rob for sortin out Isiah's car he really appreciates it
Seeing it change in the background for a while, sweet update!
That actually looks real nice! I wondered what you were going to do with that 99spec spoiler as I have a ducktail on my FD and was thinking what a 99spec would look like blended in
Beautiful color Isaiah. Your new whip is really starting to look good.
Thank you Rob!! From the bottom of my heart.
I've always hated RX8's but i love the content that's come out of it so no complaints from me :)
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Lets go bro! 🤙 Will keep nagging and harassing Rob until this thing is built to perfection!
Thank you Rob from the bottom of my heart.! 🙏
Thanks for everything Rob! 💜
I really want to see how far you can take the stock motor of an rx8 before you swap it love the rx8 content keep it coming
I'm always so goddamn curious about those crazy cheap coilovers. If they end up getting taken off, or break, I'd love to see a teardown and failure analysis! Seems like most failures on em are stuff coming loose, and leaks. Almost seems like they could be rebuilt by someone on a tiny budget into a good shock with the right seals.
It's honestly not worth rebuilding them. You'd be better off just buying better coils like Fortunes, HKS, Stance, etc.
@@pv2roach11 "worth" depends on your budget. If you're building a lemons car or something, it could be worth it. Especially if you can find replacements for the valving to adjust it, change springs etc.
I honestly hate they shit on the whole brand without testing them
@@thisnegroissad3867 I mean, I get it. Just the weirdness with setting the rear ride height is enough bad. It seems like that rear shock is very short, which isn't great especially if he has to drop the spring perch to get it low enough, which means you're running the damper with very little up travel.
@@thisnegroissad3867 I think they were more just making sure they’re not responsible if someone buys it and has a bad experience. I’ve owned a set on my RX7 and they are complete shit, but like they said, they have a purpose and you get what you pay for. It’s like a harbor freight tool, yeah it’ll get the job done, but it’s not gonna be an amazing tool and expect to replace it.
Rob talking about the maxpeeding brings up a good point. Factory suspension for my car was a good $700 at the time and good coilovers started at $900 and only got more expensive. I bit the bullet on Maxpeeding rods and paid less than $200 for all 4 corners. They aren't perfect but if you're in a tight spot they can definitely be a viable option to get you by till you can get what you need.
That’s not at all what he said
Just say you have maxspeedimg rods. Your never getting anything else.
Dang boyz, I can't believe you did that wrap dry!!! It's unbelievably difficult.
A splash of Dawn in a bottle of water makes it so easy a kid can do it. No air bubble trouble, no creasing.
That dry app is master Craftsman shyte.
I love the RX-8 content. If Rob talks any more smack about it, I'll stop watching all the FC and FD videos out of spite.
So you gunna stop watching the 4 rotor?
@@darkwatcher01 The 4 rotor isnt an fd anymore...
We unionizing
building chinese coilovers without drowning them in anti-sieze. you my friend like to live on the edge.
Thanks Rob! I used to own a rx8 and watching these videos I miss it so much. I plan to get another one in the future!
got to admit that Rx8 turned out looking pretty good.
Love the chemistry you all have with each other. It makes things entertaining!
36:36 *cough* hoonicorn suspension *cough*
The RX8 is the best car in the shop, Rob! Stay mad 😆
Love the wrap color Isaiah, the bronze tint is a nice compliment to the color :-) thank you Rob!
Great job guys. Love the long video format. That's a hot color, Isaiah. Happy to see you had your dad have a part in it. Great move
Having owned an RX8, with a 4 cylinder turbo motor, the chassis handling characteristics are phenomenal compared to many cars on the road.
Rx8 best, no more rx7 content pls
TBH I love the RX8 series and the 4 rotor series....im only here for these 2 cars. shout out to Isaiah's old man !! what a G
Nice! Congratulations on the new rims! Love the wrap!
You are supposed to tighten suspension bolts only AFTER the car has already rolled on ground,or the bushings get twisted. Those bushings are what's raising the rear so high. They will fail soon if driven like that.
The strut itself has no bushings. what you're referring to is the clocking the control arms which you do when you install new control arms and that's torqueing the control arm bolts when the car full weight is on the suspension. He'd only have to do that if he removed the control arms to install the new struts, however it seems like the control arms weren't removed.
Rob hates the RX8 but you could see him working like it was one of his cars. Doing the things you love is easy. Doing your best on something you are not enthusiastic about for the people you care about speaks volumes about character. Rob has a ton of it.
everything about this video makes me so happy
i love the work you guys are doing
Rob I think it’s nice seeing more of your crew. I’m not saying we don’t like you. I just think it’s good support for the people supporting you and your shop. I really enjoy your content. My girlfriend even gets mad at me when I randomly open CZcams and start watching videos😂
I saw that N. Custer Rd. sign at 49:30...that's a fun trip, but then you turn off N. Custer onto Bigelow Rd. and get into the twisties; now THAT'S some exuberant driving!
Thanks Rob for the rx8 content and for letting Isaiah do his build.i really do like the wing maybe one day I will get the same wing.and the maxspeed and rods coilovers ride nice I have the same ones.
On the swivel adapter, I recommend you wrap the swivel part with electrical tape 2 or 3 passes. This will keep it from chewing a chunk of flesh off your hand(yes I have a scar myself) and also keeps it from flopping over to much making it hard to line the socket up.
love the content rob and Isaiah.. Isaiah its about time rob showed you some love!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥👊👊👊👊👊👊
Love seeing him get set up with a wrap . You guys did an absolute ton of work doing it very well .
Seeing the real big smiles from Isaiah thanking the viewers is almost bigger than Robs.
Rob really LOOOOVES this whole thing huh. Honestly sounds like me when I know I have to do something I'm not going to like. At least he's got (enough) heart to fix the oops.
I don't know if it was said, but Rob... at least the customer didn't put an STI wing on :)
Looks dope guys!!! Stance is money!!
I love the long videos. Keep them coming!
The RX8 with that wrap and those rims actually looks good!
The car looks sick !! I love the collor.
THANKS ROB
Thanks Rob and Isaiah awesome work!!!
Thank you Rob! I love this channel and all of your teams shinanagins!
Isiah is really a gd fabricator he is a really important person in ur shop
