SANDRO IS ON I CLICK
We click for the homies hope for the legend 😂
It’s not that serious bro
@@SimonVanliew26 you could’ve been anything in life and you chose to be miserable lmao. Wild choice.
@@SimonVanliew26 Sandro is our intrusive thoughts with the bros
Touch some grass or chill with your friends oh wait you’ve none bozo
Fucking facts the foo is down as fuck
Moment of silence for John. That paint actually looked very good, he must have put a lot of work into it 😅
Lol it was actually a good paint job dude just doesn't know about engines apparently 😂
"I'm a painter, not a mechanic!"
"Damnit Jim..."
John is going to be fired for painting inside of the engine.
He heard them say "Blueprint the engine" and was handed blue paint.
The guy with the koi fish at the end actually lives in Vegas, pretty cool dude, to answer the question everyone is thinking no he doesn’t drive with the fish
I envy that setup. Shit's cool as fuck.😎
Is it just sitting in his lot as an expensive small aquarium?
Actually I met him at a meat in September, some kid GRABBED A FISH out of the pond and it PASSED AWAY.
@@conman2604 Koi are cool things. Doesn't mean that you can just yoink em out of their air breathing area without stressing them the hell out.
This is why I hate kids./j
Mercedes Parts Advisor here. Run flat tires are rated for 50 miles at 50 miles per hour. They are basically built in spares to get you to your closest tire repair 6:40
They suck to get off
Seeing suppy again makes me happy to be alive for a few seconds.
Love that dude.
Damn this guy is hilarious
Jesus man wanna talk about it?
If you're not joking, then I hope things turn around for you, man!
Except he doesn't know how to spell.
The way he spells his name, it would rhyme with puppy and guppy. There are rules to the English language!!
SUPEY or SOUPY
@@LEOhopefulthere are also endless exceptions in the English language. Relax buddy
Suppy!!! Fuck yeah you guys know what we want!! He’s such a nice guy, hilarious, and knows a shit ton about cars. Can we PLEASE get Sandro and Suppy together talking shit and explaining cars?! 😂
Never in a million years would I have thought I'd see Suppy be called nice after watching Hoonigan's vids lol
YES
@@ryansellsdrugs Bro he is nice! He’s the one that gets all the shit 🤣
@@ryansellsdrugslol I remember that
@@ryansellsdrugs well he was suppyvising of course he has to be mean and pissed off lol. Off camera or when he's not working he can be pretty entertaining
Suppy was the one that made hoonigan content feel like mature discovery channel type stuff. Now there just like a bunch of teenagers who've been left home alone for the weekend
Suppy is hilarious. The white bit and white van bit had me on the floor
Ditto, that was funny sh*t
The painted engine reminds me of an old joke.
Guy hires neigbor kid to pain the porch... So less than an hour, the kid comes to me claiming he's completed the task. The guy is pretty amazed and about to ask how he did that so quickly when the kid says: Btw, its a Lexus not a Porsche
That is funny good joke
Suppy and Sandro are awesome guests.
Why is nearly everyone excited about Sandro?
@@HoboThatIsHigh He is a cool dude so why not ?
@@wika1117 I thought there would be a reason other than "he's cool"
@@HoboThatIsHigh That's not enough ?
@@wika1117 I guess, but I thought there was an interesting reason that I didn't know about.
Suppy is a great addition! Love the quick quips and straight face
Great video, full of solid advice. Puts into perspective why it's necessary to take care whilst performing modifications and not to take shortcuts especially with safety gear. Appreciate the advice on checking racing harnesses, didn't realize counterfeiting was so rampant.
I'm glad that James has that opinion about telling him what he needs to know. I feel like too often people get the blame when they mess up due to poor instructions. Like if he was goofing around and spilled paint in the engine that's one thing but if he misunderstood the task because you weren't clear and precise that's on you. The two tasks you have when delegating something is 1) make sure the person you're directing knows what you want 2) make sure it gets done how you want it. You failed at task 1? Well that's on you.
YES. Also, in my experience, bosses like this get *pissed* when their underlings have the gall to waste their time by asking them a question, and so those underlings either shoot from the hip and use their own judgment (*which they haven't had time to develop yet*) or go around asking a bunch of other people what their boss's request meant, none of whom will be able to be certain about it, because the *one* person who can provide the authoritative answer that poor underling *needs* in order to do their job has placed themselves off limits!
Sun Tzu said: “If words of command are not clear and distinct, if orders are not thoroughly understood, then the general is to blame.”
Yea I can see the mistake. He painted the outside of the engine. Problem is that outside will eventually be inside. It’s an understandable mistake for a new guy. This is more on the boss
Nah the guy should think about what's going on. No excuse. He shouldn't take a job at a motor shop if he doesn't know the basics. CZcams exists, you can look it up, and gain major experience beforehand.
@@markdoroshkin408 Lol this is the kind of mentality that has lead our world to require 10 years experience to get an entry level job. "Go off and master this field before you come and work in this field"
I’ve definitely felt like John before, but damn John even the timing chain??😂
Just the outside, though.
That in-trunk koi pond should instantly win that car every automotive-related award out there. Pebble Beach. Le Mans, Daytona, that ute meetup west of Darwin, the N'Djamena-Hyderabad Rally Days, the Columbia County Agricultural & Motoring Expo, don't even bother holding any of them. This thing rules.
I love that some guy looked at his car and thought, 'you know what this needs? Koi pond.'
Like of all the things to put in... a pond.
So glad to Suppy outside of the Hoonigan universe. Him and his crew are too good to be held down.
Suppy is ace, but sandro and Angelina are the dream team.
I can't believe I've never seen Suppy on here before, he's a riot. I hope he and Sandro are perma-guests, they're definitely the best
I'm a simple man, I see Sandro I click.
4:55 some say John is still cleaning that engine block
Some say, when those two words start a sentence, my brain switches to hearing it in Clarkson's voice🙃
@@Jeff.78confuscious say, I am the great cornholio, put koi fish in trunk of Camry
Omfg Supppyyy! Ive missed this guy man. Ever since their crew's contract ended with hoonigan. Instant like 👍
He is clueless about nitrogen
@vominator He's right about the nitrogen. It's the best air you can have in a tire. We use it on aircraft because of how much it resist pressure change from heat. Also it's an inert gas so in case of a blowout, no boom boom. Just a bang
@@vominator he is not, he just simplified it. Nitrogen does not expand or contract AS MUCH as air which does make it superior for tires than air.
@@vominatorI love when people like you are confidently wrong lol
@@jorgecabrera3694right right… so what about the air we breath being 80% nitrogen? Sounds like a waste of money on cars.
Sandro is mint on these!! Always makes the room laugh and the audience. Legend!!
Hands down🎉 the best show yet bringing both these boys back.🎉
5:52 Nitrogen is used in _aircraft_ tires because you need to know exactly how much mass you put into that tire. That's what using pure nitrogen gives ya'-- _consistency._ Nothing else. You use pure nitrogen simply because it's a pure gas (and it's the cheapest pure gas you can get).
Nitrogen in a car is like a tourbillon in a wristwatch-- it's bling. Sure, air has water vapor and oxygen to throw off the variables, but you aren't going to notice a thing when you change altitudes or climate conditions like an airplane does.
Nitrogen is used in race cars, not road cars. Or road cars that goes to track days.
I use a 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen mix in my tires. It's cheap and readily available.
4:02 at this point I'm just gonna stop saying "so and so is my favorite" they're all good. Love suppy. Can't go wrong with Sandro. Shout out to Paul and Ms. A. Great hosts. 10/10
They've only ever had one bad guest. But Sandro will always be my favorite
3:25 in my mind i was like hey you said outside of the block..... he painted the outside of the block 😮
I love all the mechanics you bring on and now suppy ???? Broo.. you guys make my day
Sandro is the best. He don't give a f***
The turn signal working on that backwards truck is hilarious
and they have red breaklights
Sandro can literally spend a straight hour trying to explain complicated sting theory and I'd probably watch. Definitely one of my favorite regulars.
I could listen to Suppy talk about cars for hours, dude is hilarious and insanely smart
We’ve got Angelina, Sandro, and now Suppy. That’s the dream team
Woooord. 😄👌🏻
I do really enjoy this Series. Whoever came up with the Idea of this Channel deserves a Raise!
Also: You Guys really should tell whoever finds these Clips/Scenes for you to check out CZcams Videos of the "Touristenfahrten" on the Nürburgring which is an Event each Weekend here on the Nürburgring in Germany happen where everyone from around Europe can take whatever Car/Bike etc. they have and race it around the Ring. Each Week there are new Fails and hilarious/weird Happenings.
There's a couple of Channels who professionally record these Touristenfahrten (stuff worth showing) each Weekend the past 10 Years and i'd love to see some Mechanics and other Professioinals react to some of the more weird ones.
Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps
Kidde had a major recall on fire extinguishers a few years back. Basically any fire extinguisher with a plastic handle/trigger needs to be replaced.
Suppy is funny as hell!!🤣🤣 Got to see more of him back on the show for sure 👍
Sandro is such a cool guy.
"For the boys".
What!!! Suppy and Sandro! Give me a break! This is MVP stuff right here!
Sandro should be hired to be full time on Donut. Dude is fun
As a John, I feel attacked…
Aircraft paint stripper, if it's legal in your area, works great for when the FNG paints the inside of the engine.
SUPPY! WE MISS YOU MANG! please come back to us 🥺 been watching old videos because the new stuff doesn't hit right. The commentary here is gold, unleash Suppy and let him really speak his mind. Viral 👌 just don't be a John....
I double that
Another great episode. Always good to see Sandru. Suppy was a good addition.
SUPPY!!!!! Seeing suppy makes me so happy!
YO SUPPY!!! Missed that guy!
We need more videos w/ Sandro & Suppy.
the editing was so good on this episode lol. i love the little half second of the intro for the Skyrim enemy encounter music when the white van rolls on screen
Definitely Love Suppy! That guy knows his stuff! One thing though, the youtuber from farmcraft channel did a video on fire extinguishers (after a piece of heavy duty equipment he was working on caught fire) and he showed that the charge doesn't so much dissipate per se, but usually the contents tend to solidify. That is usually why they won't work, because the pressure is only meant to push a loose powder or whatever out but not a solid.
Medkit is great to carry in your car aswell. If you or the other driver is in an accident stopping the bleed can save lives. And there all pretty good from 30-150+
Have a couple tourniquets as well...and know how to use em.
@@Jeff.78 And when to use them.
@@marshallpeters7174 "How" was used to include "when." Didn't think I'd hafta clarify that, but here we are.
Wish these episodes were twice as long. Always look forward to my Thursday 4pm vid.
first off Sandro is about the boys! and I love him. also I love learning things from all this, everytime.
Hell yeah! Happy to see Suppy back on camera again
1:00 big white zip ties are also great for running aftermarket 12v wiring through tight areas.
Nitrogen expands at the same rate as air. (Air is about 80% nitrogen.) But nitrogen fills will reduce the rate of deterioration of the rubber compounds in the tire, which might let it go farther without developing tread separations or oxidation of the compounds. Maybe.
I don't think there is any real advantage to nitrogen in a highway tire. I've seen too many cars come in with green caps on the valve stems, and low tire pressure. They lose pressure at least as much as air. Thing is, for a true nitrogen fill, you'd have to vacuum all the existing air out first.
In paper it may make sense, in reality nitrogen is a waste of money. This is basically a dealership scam.
@@darkrulier It's also a chunk of woo-woo that can cause somebody to delay getting their pressure checked because they think that they have to refill with nitrogen. I suspect that for automotive and pickup tires, it might cause owner/driver misunderstanding of the importance of "pressure first and foremost". I won't say that it causes more tire failures due to inflation delays than it saves via oxidation reduction, but if somebody did a proper study of it, I'd bet that they'd find that it does.
I love how the very first thing I thought of when you asked about snake oil was the intake tornados. I didn't know if folks still knew about that BS. It was all the rage 20 years ago from all the genius car kids in school.
Suppy and Sandro!? 100% need more of this
Sandro is back 🎉 this is going to be good
SUPPY! ANIME UNIVERSE CROSSOVER I LOVE TO SEE, Golden Era Hoonigan meets Donut!!!!
Yesss Suppy!!! Please do more collabs with him, I miss seeing him in videos. 🎉🎉🎉
this is my first time encountering suppy and he seems like a fun guy, would be cool to see more collaborations with him!
So my dad is a car guy... and i now watch these with him instead of myself. Even though i know nothing about cars. It's actually great. And sometimes i actually get things right
That's how you learn about cars none of us started knowing everything
The koi in the trunk with Sandro's fish imitation was a classic! 🐠🐟🐡
About the dwarf dude with the Jeep. There's manufacturers that sell pedal extensions. Like, forged aluminum parts with brackets and wing nuts that fully cover the stock pedals. I know more than a few people who use them, and there's never been a safety concern.
Again, don't cheap out on safety equipment
Suppy my goat. Its amazing to see him again
That poor B5 Audi! I happen to also own a B5 Audi and it's been pretty expensively modified. I absolutely keep a fire extinguisher in my trunk. Mine has a gauge on it, you know like a normal extinguisher!
He filled them tires w foam for the demo derby. That's why he painted it like that. Surprised you guys didn't know that😂 keep putting out the great content boys🤟
Was about to say this but you beat me too it good Sir
5 minute crafts probably stole the video and reported the clip without context
I love any video with Sandro in it! ❤️
Hell. Yes. Book Suppy for life man. And Always love Sandro.
Mid 2000s honda odyssey run flats have huge plastic ring pressed onto wheel with tire u drive on when flat. PAY 8HRS per 4 tires. And they are like 400$ a piece. I MADE BANK doing em in 3.5 hrs at dealership but the bill musta been insane. Oh and you CANNOT patch them
Suppy is hella funny you should have him again on this channel
Suppy!!!!!! 😬 Awesome to see him on here, more episodes with him please, his energy is just 👌🏻😂
This is my first time seeing Suppy...I want more. And Sandro is being his usual loveable self. 😆
always get fire extinguishes with a pressure gauge and check it from time to time. and don't forget the compound in a standard one can clump at the bottom so up end it once and awhile as well . never a good idea to to find out your extinguisher doesn't work wile your car is burning
also, get one with some volume to it. the one in the clip is the right size to put out a wastebasket fire.
and never ever get one made in China. north American or nothing
Blue Audi owner here. Can confirm it did not work out in my favor finding out my extinguisher didn’t work after my car had caught on fire.
5:55 Nitrogen DOES expand. Just like regular atmospheric air (which is 70% nitrogen, by the way), gaseous nitrogen obeys the general gas equation pV=nRT. All you're doing is wasting money by buying nitrogen to put in your tires when you could just run an air compressor for maybe a dollar or two and get the standard 70/20 mix that good ol' air gives you.
Suppy is hysterical lol. Love this dude.
Suppy!!! Good to see you brother!
Another great show, Sandro hilariously wise as always. Love the new guest mechanic 🎉
You know its gonna be a good day when you see ya boi Sandro
Another good episode 👍 Suppy
Suppy is always the best! Happy to see a guest appearance by him.
nitrogen in tires is a scam. theres like 78% nitrogen in the air we breathe so filling tires with pure nitrogen is kind of useless
I gotta agree. I lost tire pressure the first time there was a super cold night. Called subaru because I had never dealt with no2 and the told me to just go fill it with regular air. Gonna go with unnecessary add on I wouldn't waste money on again.
But that 22 percent!
"I'm waiting for Xibit to pop on out," That had me rolling! 🤣
Suppy is the man. Hes always showing you how to work smart and not hard
Ayyy its awesome to see suppy 🤘🔥
5:56 Lol... Air is 78% nitrogen. If you believe that 100% nitrogen (which, btw you aren't getting when you think you are filling up with nitrogen) is changing the properties enough for it to be worth the cost, I have a bridge to sell you.
Nitrogen absolutely expands when it heats.
Nah, he just found the exception to the ideal gas law 😂
Compare it to air
Also, air is already 78% nitrogen. Even if nitrogen were somehow completely expansion-proof, you’re still looking at a tiny improvement in PSI.
Pure nitrogen is great if your tires are at risk of combustion, though. If you’re taking off or landing your car at 180+ mph it could make a difference.
@@jonathansmith7306 the difference is 0.1% per 10 pounds of pressure per 10 degrees F. In other words, negligible.
Suppy and Sandro!
This is the dream team
I had to look twice at the thumbnail, but feels good to see Suppy around again!
I miss Angelina, she was amazing and had a great sense of humor
Has she left? Or just not on this episode?
@@FalsePROPH3TI would also like to know
Suppy is hilarious :-)
James yelling KOI POND!!! is the hardest I've laughed so far this year, thanks fella :D
I see Suppy i click! So cool you got him on here, would have never guessed he would be down for it. I sure miss witnessing his hatred for almost everyone at Hoonigan. Dude is extremely talented and funny as well. Rock on Suppy!
suppy and sandro!
Suppy!
This Suppy guy is fantastic lol great addition to the channel
Suppy! Finally a real mechanic!
sandro is hilarious. and suppy was giving me weird vibes in the beginning but he’s also a chill guy
😂😂😂 suppy is funny as hell ….sandro is the G.O.A.T love these guys on the show
Love that y’all brought out Suppy 🤙🏼
Great video. I had a good laugh 😂
