For what it’s worth, I never had to rebuild my Yaris engine.
Leon Kernan only because you can’t do ANYTHING in a Yaris.....😎
2jz swap 😂
Leon Kernan u
me neither
My Yaris with 460.000 km doing well
BENNY DESERVES A MIC WHEN HE'S ON SITE. :D ;)
He does. Just ask him.
lol subaru's engines come with "FRAGILE" on the box...
"Last episode, we pulled a broken engine out of a Subaru... Surprise surprise!"
I guess it's just in case :P
9 Minutes 33 seconds in, gone to check the oil in my liberty....
everyday bro
Looks at Barra... Barra looks back.
I just go off the odometer. I can get like, 1200km until the oil is off the bottom of the stick :P
Found a Barra that needed 2L to reach the dipstick, then some more to get the right level... bit of tinkering and 150k later still reads the right level.
Years ago, I managed to drive across Victoria in my grandparents '89 Nova with hardly any oil in the sump. The dipstick was dry, but the car still ran fine. It's still going fine today, as far as I'm aware.
Reliability makes a good car, ability to chop makes a great car
Barry from Gumtree on the glass barbecue. Nice.
Marty drops a $5,000 engine into his mums Subaru, Moog drops a $500 engine into his mums Toyota. Let the race begin.
These prices haven't aged well.... 🤣
Knock knock. Who's there. My EJ.
What's the difference between a golfball and a Subaru? A golf ball can be driven 300 yards
That's why I have a 236 k mile Subaru. And it's more reliable than my shitty Evo I intentionally set on fire. It's not our fault you don't know how to drive.
DJ Statyk, I bet you are fun at parties
@@joedesalvo3316 Bitch I am the pary
@@djstatyk1540 yeah....nah..
Subarus 260,000+
Wow benny has some brutal 1 liners
That's why they don't mic him up when he's there 😀
Turbo Yoda has brutal 0 liners.
"On this occasion he was on the glass barbecue..."
‘Barry from gumtree was on the glass bbq’ I am dead!😂😂
"Always cut away" proceeds to cut towards himself lmao
Or in AvE land, cut towards your chum, not your thumb!
We are in Australia their away is out towards
Away from your mechanical stig anyway
@@brokenacoustic i cant stand that guy...
@@fixitup2193 ...ok...?
no one seems to know this. but those straps you get around box's to hold them close? if you flip the tab around that connects them, you can just pull them apart. that's how they are ment to be opened. :P pro tip.
box's
i dun get it..which strap?
The one that's being cut, poorly, at 1:48.
sir Reinhardt, people know, it's just quicker to just cut them rather than look for the joins, it's all going in the bin after all.
Just use a knife. What ya gonna use the straps for.
*Super pro tip*
I've learned heaps from this video series. Like don't buy a Subaru.
tiporari Nah more like keep your Subaru stock and check your oil
No I have one worst mistake ever
A handy tip for removing that grey sealant is a pure brass bristle rotary brush for your drill. I couldn't find any in the local tool shops as just seems to be the brass coated steel rotary brushes so I found them on Ebay UK.
Once the large bits of sealant have been scrapped off then the rotary brush makes quick work of the rest of the sealant and doesn't leave a speck of old sealant on the engine part.
I love the editing here, something's changed and its just so good, the washing montages, the cuts to more cleaning and refitting montages, the music. Thank you and keep it up :)
Definitely my favourite guys on CZcams, allways look forwards to their next video!
I love the episode you made. "How to buy a car in Japan" Totally LOVED IT!
that was one of their best episodes. the entire series in japan was great, where the meet up with that car club and go to their secret drift spot, all good shit
Watching the heads get rebuilt properly was the most satisfying thing I have watched on the internet today.
Can we all agree that Benny is awesome. What a guy!
I been seeing this kid that drives a Subaru WRX in my area, that he's got a decal on the windshield that says "Killin It." I haven't quite figured out if it's head gaskets or connecting rod bearings that it's referring to.
"Over night parts from Japan" 😄
Like a racer
Nice job! It looks like new. Don't forget to pour the oil.😁
Love this series one of my favourites
when will you be modifying dad's car?
When he gets back from buying cigs. Only been 15 years, he'll be back any time now.
The 4 of them fix their own cars.
@@victor9sur768 haha!
@@victor9sur768 I wanted to laugh but thats sad
#DaddyCarMods.
Why haznt this replaced The Block yet now this is prime viewing
Dude so many people that have never heard of that show are going to be confused by your comment lol
Getting down to the nitty gritty of auto repair. This has been an awesome series.
Also, I posted this like a minute before Marty said nitty gritty hahaha
I had a 95 Subaru Impreza. The thing took a beating and still ran like new. I had it in the shop for an oil leak around the crank shaft seal, and when the tech put it back together he didn’t use lock tight or torque the nut and the nut came loose while running. This caused the crank shaft gear to shift, destroy the crank shaft key, and throw it out of timing. Back to the shop. He put another key in the shaft, lock tight, and torque, but the key whole was so bad, it threw it out of timing again. Now I was stuck with a dilemma. It would have been a rebuilt but we had an idea. A welder friend of mine came and welded the gear onto the shaft. Put it all back together, fire it up. Still ran like new. Love Subaru. Wish I still had the car.
Let's go!!!!! loving this series ❤
The big question is when will Benny get his own show on MCMTV2???????
He did, watch his nissan stagea build on mcmtv2
@@skim2hpwn I mean like skid factory is
If I remember right, Unicorn Circuit last week said there's going to be an announcement of a new show on MCMTV2 sometime this week. Might be a Benny build show, who knows?
Probably doesn't want it.
Sorted
This was immensely relaxing and satisfying to watch.
Whenever the beats start, the other earbud always goes in. Keep up the good work boys!
I bought a Subaru Impreza GC8 earlier this year. Already had to replace clutch and thermostat. You're not wrong about broken subie owners coming here
At least that car is fun! :D
It's a legend!
The only reason I really know about them is because I had to replace the "heEaD gAsKeT"on my
bro-inlaw's car lol
lol clutch and thermostat have nothing to do with subaru problems, they are either due on intervals, or due to poor maintenance or drivers fault. subaru are known for head gaskets, rings and 5 speed trans. cant blame subaru for your clutch and thermostat needing replacement haha
Owner: Had to replace clutch in my new Subaru, why? Service Desk: Because you don't know how to drive a clutch. Expect you'll need another clutch soon, should we mark you in for 6 months from now or would you like to learn how to drive a clutch? Owner: I'll just come back in 6 months because I will never admit I can't drive a Manual without breaking things.
Had my GC8 10 years now (40k miles), awesome cars. very little problems really. I definitely got a good one though, there's def loads of trashed ones for sure. Get one of them and its a different story.
Oh i kinda forgot the elephant in the room for any UK owners, like me. Rust ;(
cars had 2 cam changes ;)
Subaru, The Wankel of the Piston World...
great when it works
expensive when its not
@@reecemartin453 so usually just expensive.
Subaru, the Subaru of the piston world.
Oof right under the bus.
@@boingkster well im getting a casual 11.8l per 100ks
thats being nice =(
love the soundtrack on this guys. Awesome job as always. Very informative!
Wow that's just mad. Ive never been into Subaru's, and seeing this thank god I never have. The engines seem so complicated !. Kudos to you guys and for having Mechanical Stig there. You would have never done it without him. His skills and experience with these engines clearly shows.
It honestly blows my mind how expensive even the junk yard motors are for you guys. One think I’ve liked about my Tahoe is a junk yard 5.3L motor is $700-1000. I’ve been looking at built crate 5.3s for $2,300-500 for factory 295hp to 400hp
300 bhp is what Subaru owners get out of 2L. If you only expect 300 bhp from your 5.3L engine, that engine doesn't have to be tuned very hard and it'll have a low stress life. Low stress = low cost.
Yeah James, but your Tahoe motor is only expected to last 5000 miles...Trolling ;-)
How many LS engines does your local junk yard have laying around? lol That helps give you an indication as to why they are so expensive. Availability drives down price
Australia is a rip off mate
@James I hear you mate. If it's not the "Australia Tax" on imports, it's the other greedy business owners in this country slapping huge margins on local stuff. Sure we don't have the number of customers as North America but come on ! Personally I think it's changing as most will now buy overseas online rather than pay exorbitant prices. BTW USD to AUD = times 1.315. So $760 USD = $1,000 AUD.
people always bash rotaries for throwing apex seals and requiring rebuilds and not being reliable..
seems Subaru's should be in that camp as well then?
They are. If anyone want's to just chuck stacks of flaming cash into the toilet & never drive their car. They do a rotary conversion on their Subaru
fuck me you need to win lotto to properly rebuild a rotory.......
Even V or W engines hv reliability issues so i assume only inline 4 of 6 are the most reliable one .
well you did hear him bashing on the bad owners on the last few videos..its not the engine its the people not maintaining them. I had a 235k mile Legacy outback H4 with no issues.
@@Zcypot Right but they also require more maintenance than the average engine... which would mean a worse design in that respect. But many Toyotas burn oil and require as much tedious maintenance, so it at least isn't alone in that.
loving the new tunes too guys
Grass-roots MCM, great stuff! Also, Benny is brilliant to watch and learn from! Would love to see more of him do detailed stuff 🤘
Its 2:00AM and i was about to go to bed... not anymore
What is sleep?
Same.
Same here but its 3:13 am LOL, Now I've had my Mighty Car Mod Fix I can crash.
Midnight here, supposed to be up for work in 5 hours. Don't need to wake up for work if you don't go to sleep!
Same here
last time I was this early, Marty’s imported legacy was seized
That has been one of your best videos guys.
Looking fabulous ! Good work, guys !
Last time i was this early i got to cars and coffee on time
So at this point is the next engine already on order or do you wait until this one blows ?
Awesome video mates. Very informative, and entertaining, as always! Keep doing what you are doing!
Bring on part 4 !! Mum's gonna love it.
just asking,why do you lube the top headbolt and not the thread instead?
It ensures that all bolts get properly torqued by the threads and not the friction of the bolt dragging across the head.
It's to remove as much "collar friction" as possible
"wet torque" means put a couple drops of oil directly on the threads, not the bolt head. u can put oil on the head, yes, but that's not what "wet torque" means.
Torque is an inference of clamping force, friction will give a higher torque reading but lower clamping force. This is why "torque to yield" bolts were invented. Give them an initial torque, then tighten until they permanently stretch. Making them tighter past spec won't increase clamping force so the bolt needs to be designed for required clamp force. .
make sure the tip is lubed up, she complains less that way :)
17:10 who else thought that their headphones were broken
JDM Lyfe no one
I thought my speakers were broken
XD
Proper blows my mind the skill and knowledge Benny has. 😆🐐
Moog, as always your music rocks, I wish that I was half as talented at production and editing as you guys! Well done ....Love your stuff!
I'm a simple man, I see mighty car mods, I hit like.
I think I've liked every single one of their videos lol
I do the same with your videos
hEadGasKet
LoL I was just thinking that!
OpEnDeCk
I'll donate someday when I save up money. Thank you for the years of funny videos and building good chemistry with the guys. Love from USA 💟
All I could think of when you guys said "And everything will be torqued to spec" then a beep happened, was "MAKE THE NOISE....!" from Project Binky :D
I was waiting for a comment.
Looks like I will be late for work today.
Boss: Why are you late?
You: Watched new Mighty Car Mods episode
Boss: What is Mighty Car Mods?
You: I quit
Take all those dirty parts to the machine shop, to be washed in their rotary hot washer. Cheap and better.
hurt my ocd seeing dirty shit being put back on!
Or use a dishwasher
That's a good idea, I am sure it would save me time manually cleaning each part for at least an hour. How much is it usually?
I've built countless engines of all quality levels. Baked on oil / discolored metal isn't an issue.
@@Oblithianthey won’t clean it for you. Buy an old dishwasher and use that it will be cheaper
Benny is a legend! thank you for this video, love the Subaru content!
Dunno why but this episode remindes me of Mark Evan's "A racing car is born", good times! All the best!

7:18am. I was going to go sleep but I might as well have another beer and watch this
I see some serious grafting going on in a short space of time... keep up the good work lads 👍🏼
I like this series, back to the old school MCM style. Good stuff.
what happened to marty's mom's legacy wagon?
CHOPPED!!!!
@TominBach oh wait, that was Marty's old RS ;)
She ran the engine out of okl.
So what’s the Slaz on the corners trick?
Just looks like gasket glue on the corners of the rocker covers then slide in the rubber seal.
HJZ7- I was wondering myself. Kind of stupid to mention it and then not explain. I always want these tech tips from guys with a lot of experience.
I do believe that slaz is aussie slag for applying some adhesive. They may have been deliberately vague because some mechanics consider that to be a trade secret
At least in Honda that trick is told in all service guides as corners will leak without that. Same sealant as in oil sump etc.
@@Karjis pretty much all usa domestic service manuals have that step for a gasket mating surface in a corner. Im sure all service manuals have that.
Love the upload!
Someone was nostalgic editing this one! The music is original from way back (plus a bit of new) and the edits seemed different than the normal MCM feel. Have fun in the editing booth boys!
I really liked the brief cleaning montage with actual sound at 14:45ish - nice coverage of the often glossed-over drudgery of car work.
All this talk of Subaru unreliability puts me off a brz/86 right now
My soob has 457.000km and counting
Shaun Pugh yeah I’m pretty sure they are full of shit saying Subaru engines are unreliable.
@@kungfusing1 turbo subarus are the ones that blow up. subarus over all are junk tho always blowing up
nah I got a Forester with over 120k on the EJ20 turbo motor ran like a champ all the way until the gearbox failed instead
It’s a different engine family.
Hello
Another great Series Guys !!!!
Great episode!
It's fragile because it always break.
I never want to own a Subaru after watching this
Yeah I don't blame ya. Having to take care of a car. Too much work.
@@Questchaun Yeah you're right I'd rather stick with my rb30 that's not awkward to work on and can handle lot's of power without fear of it blowing up, and it's cheap to buy parts. Everything a subaru isn't.
@@rickphillips7221 well ya gotta own what you can afford I guess. Good luck with your rb hope you don't granade it!
Agreed. I only ever owned ONE !
7am here and for once I catch a MCM video when it's released :D
Ive always been a Holden bloke but Subaru goes just as hard loven both channels guys
When they say 27 50 does that mean 275.00 or 2750.00?
2750.00
$2.75
$27.50
2750.00
2750 trust me im aussie

Really enjoying the new music! keep up the good work my dudes.
Just finished putting together my wrx 255 hybrid with 251 heads and intake. Hop on the tube and see yall just finished your block as well. Gotta lug mine out of the basement and then toss it back into my legacy. So close to being back on the road!

there is some porn over there
don't lets the kids watch this
Dunno if it's been said yet but, 3 guys 1 small block?
I have the exact same engine crane, fairly cheap and trust worthy
This has been a really fun series! It does seem like Marty and Moog are working hard, and Benny is on vacation ;)
who else has an English exam tomorrow?
The Aussie Gamer yep, we gonna die tomorrow
@S LaZeRzz yeah but not as bad as this ej
knot mee!
great work guys...
I have a Subaru 2 ltr non turbo I've been driving on the farm for years absolutely thash it check the oil once a year haven't done any maintenance since 2006 still runs mint
SO GLAD you mentioned new oil pump, and oil cooler.
That was a really good view. Thanks!
Love it i just did an engine swap with a mate on a drive way on my fiat seicento loved it thanks allot Mighty Car Mods
19:54 is funny as. Barry on the glass BBQ 😂😂😂
The song at the end is sooo sweet.
Using the ej207 definitely opens many possibilities for more "reliable" power upgrades in the future!!!
Whispers in the background..
FUUUUTCHAAAA..
"Disappointment" Benny is the best.
Big fat thumbs up on this series. Working with engine is fun. To bad it is expensive af. But one day i will have my own garage.
I would love to see Mighty Car Mods sponsored by Subaru.
That shot where he leans out from behind Marty with the oil was hilarious!
You guys have the best job in the world.
Love the metallica hoodie 👍🏼👍🏼
I'm pulling a Subaru engine now haha. 09 Impreza, head gaskets leaking oil, stop me if you've heard that before.
