This was when MCM peaked. It's still great today, but it was phenomenal back then. I'm just thankful we had this.
1200 bucks for a Chaser. The engine alone is worth more now.
Shame it was an auto. Literally would've had EVERYTHING to build something great if there was a manual trans except for that lame restrictive stock exhaust. Look at all the AE86's just sitting around too. Damn these guys got lucky to do this and snag this drivetrain for $1,200. The Recaro on the forklift is a hell of a nice touch too. I dig it.
ibeciloide poeple, gainning some money destroying.
Destroying another chaser to repair another one, is idiotic and criminal.
@@juaquimgustavo4712 Dude, donor cars exist EVERYwhere. What would your idea be? To repair every Chaser? That's prohibitively expensive.
just a 1jzgte engine/auto trans is $4-5k usd now
"I'm gonna lick it later" hahaha lmao that was funny
and rake loves it
+Travis Friedel You gotta say it like:
and RAKE LOVES IT!?
*direct camera at Rake*
*Rake nods*
The opening is epic, from season 1 to season 4, it changed from home made videos to professional TV show. Good Job!
"I'm just 'gonna talk rubbish all day"
Moog 2012
1:21 Their dancing, the girl looking at them and the dramatic music all somehow work, hilariously
In Japan even forklifts have racing seats
Never change your intro, it's perfect
I got a little sad when the car was finally detached in half. Its dead and will never be whole again.
Me to 😭
***** dunno about "great"
A chaser seems like a cool car as well. Would love me one of those to scare the shit out of the gti's and honda's around here. But this one has had it's day. Just be glad the mighty engine lives on and doesn't get crushed. It prolly would have been crushed if they didnn't buy it anyway.
***** They sold the cressida they built after this episode and some dude wrecked it. They talk about it in one of their Q and A's. Some dude must have drifted it hard into a pole :c
Omg
forklift with RECARO seats??? must be very cheap in japan..
+Sasika Sanoja Or somebody spends his working hours in it and refuses to sit on a metal crate. They were around 65 bucks in that UP shop.
+Sasika Sanoja they have to take them out of the cars before they chop them, so he probably just got one of them
+Sasika Sanoja Maybe he drifts that forklift in his free time who knows...
Sasika Sanoja it's has even a sticker with the Aussie flag
so wtf do you need to cut it in half
Always come back to this video....this introduced me to the 1JZ, and later the 1JZ VVT-i. Finally buttoned up my 1jz vvti swapped IS300 after many years of wanting something with this legendary engine. Thanks to this video!
Moog will touch anything
even me?
Gard Pedersen`
Gard Pedersen did you mean that in an inappropriate way or like a tap on the soldier?
I gave up on counting how may times Moog said *"Martin"* Througout the video lmao.
At first, I was sad to hear that you were going to to chop that chaser up. Then I saw the lack of care given to the car, now I'm glad you're giving it a proper send off.
He says "Martin" so often! I LOVE the way he does that! My GOD I've needed this show in my life.
Awesome toyota ae86 in the begging
Qing Yuan Same here, got a little excited but then it wasn't
Did moog just make a Captain Planet reference? nice
you two are absolute legends
Welcome to Marty Car Moogs!
Recaro seat on the forklift maaàáädddd
and brembos
BECAUSE JAPAN.
1:48 Loving this track Moog.
Also I can't help notice how many times you guys've been over to the Niplands. It sucks living on the opposite side of the world dude.
Niplands..... Wow you're a douchebag
Without a doubt my favorite channel on CZcams
I like the new intro guys! Keep up the good work
Drifting and Smoking... could it be a car of Bunta Fujiwara?
It even had the cup holder :P
Gerry Martin i know this post is years old but that was the first thing i thought of when i saw the ashtray
has rake got problems or does he put an act on? seriously who is this mystical man
If you watch the longer honda civic videos you can see he's perfectly normal. It's an act.
I love you modding up these cars you do a really good job. make some more vids cheers MIGHTYCARMODS
Mighty Car Mods 4 ever .love you guys
That ae86 tho 😍😍
I thought you'd bought the corolla at first:,,,,,(
I've bought an engine from from IchiBan before.. It was the best and fast shipper from Sydney, Australia to the west coast America.. Man they are the best customer service too through eBay. Next time I'll buy more from them. Only takes 8 days flat..wow!! Very happy mate.
love the video. got a lot of good ideas for my project
car
is it just my eyes or does that forklift have recaro seats? lol
It actually has a Recaro seat. You can see the name toward the end. Its great. Lol
Yeah 😂😂😂
Also a brembo sticker
a jdm sticker too
Mitchell Mortenson Brembo brakes at 17:54
Must of been Mr. Fujiwara's car
Loves smoking and drifting, sounds right...
Why is this show not on the speed channel or any other automotive television station..I would totally watch this! Nice Job from America!!
badass how much you guys have grown in five years
I felt sad when you chopped it
I'm probably missing something here, but why would you not just remove the engine?
I'm pretty sure it's something to do with legislation...
No way its been 4 years already! Feels like I only watched this last week!
You guys are awesome! Cant wait to see what will become of this half chaser!! /Love from Sweden
Ok, so I am super confused. I noticed Moog firing a gun. I have been planning a trip to Japan and enjoy shooting and looked high and low for shooting opportunities in Japan, and from what I can tell civilians are not allowed to have firearms. Can anyone shed some light on this?
light
It's a pellet gun, orange tips aren't on them in Japan
The only bad thing is if importing a car the steering wheel is on the left
Which isn't a bad thing if your country drives on the left... these guys are Australian.
birdylover100 The way it should be! Steering wheel should always be on the right!
crcn11 i know im australian to i ment steerings on the left sucks for the others tho you can find some on the right
***** why that would make no sense for americans
That would mean a huge over haul for the roads and tons of money nobody would want to do that
lol...the moped at the end was epic! ...I love these guys.
the Recaro seat on the forklift... its awesome! :D
did anyone notice Jackie Chan at 0:54 ....
lol yeah on the left
Why not take the windshield out first instead of cutting it in half?
These guys should be on TV. Thank god for the internet, you guys freaking rock!!!
I'm not even that into cars... and I still love this channel lol.
this episode made me sad. that car would have been really sick if u put a little money in it :(
the problem is that they can't import it to australia for legal reasons so they cut it in half and brought the useful end home
DJXtremist1 damn import laws!!!!
DJXtremist1 how did he import the white s15 then?
because those are legally allowed into the country with some modifications, like he mentioned, Catylitic Converter(s) and Immobilizer. look up the episode "Importing a car from Japan"
Nah it's cool. I just wondered that's all as I wasn't 100% on it
why do they cut the car in half? surely they could fit the whole car in the container
more weight cost more to ship
+highlandrab19 No, it's because it's not legal to import a Chaser into Australia, because of our stupid Australian Design Rules _unless_ it's chopped in half (hence the half-cut terminology) and registered as spares.
highlandrab19 save space, and legal issue. Some country like Indonesia bans used car importation, however it allows parts (engines, etc.) imported.
Got to love moog's car inspections haha !
you guy are best i love watching your videos keep up the great work
Its fake guys he didnt fire the weapon into the air, you can clearly see his finger didnt move, its a mechanic shop there are a million things they could use to fake that sound, it was just a joke for fun.
dude, like, no, shit, thank you.
You can clearly see the bullet
Aayush Patel You can clearly see zero recoil, last time I checked civilian ownership of firearms is illegal in Japan, or so I've found.
Correction, its a huge pain in the ass so, nearly Illegal, there a is a huge procedure and what not and you can only use a fire arm for hunting and sporting.
Marcus Zizzo
That and gunshots don't usually sound like that when filmed. They have a pop sound due to the mic not picking it up well.
Filip Maj yup that's true, I've filmed firearms before, didn't even notice lol
back then when the episodes were kinda half decent
this is a brilliant show
The reccaro seat on the fork lift hahaha. adds support when taking hard turns or drifting.
Please don't ever fire a gun into the air again. You put people's lives in danger by doing that.
Don't tell people how to live their lives. Thats how nazi germany was run.
I don't disagree, I'm just concerned for the carelessness displayed by firing a gun into the air, where the bullet could possibly hit and kill someone.
I didn't know that, although there's no surprise.
It's SFX. It's not real. :)
Not directly into the air, the terminal velocity of a bullet would sting a bit, but no where near kill anyone.
I am so glad I found MCM.
these ausies are funny as hell, and informative ! good job!
1:21
MCM, you two make my life that much more enjoyable.
I love when you guys go through the history of a car XD so hilarious!

enjoyed this show!
ha, i used to work at a chop shop that did this and shipped the front end to Japan!
Same here....although I also hate when it shows what i'm missing out on (Being in the U.S.)...this episode in particular makes me super jealous.
oi Moog, when im stoned your beats put me into a trance.
Goddamnit, I got all excited that you bought the red 86 @ 1:26...
Started crying right about when you pulled out the saw
Good catch pal!!
I´ve watched this video 1 or 2 years ago, but noticed one thing right now, it´s got the Stock Lexus LS 400 Rims without the centercaps on it, had the same on my ls400 for about 8 months and i also took of the center caps :D :D
Why u took them off?

You guys are my first reason for choosing Australia for my post grad. :)
"Look martin, theres goodies in there!" Moog is too funny.
