The miata has too much of boost which is pushing your hair line back and making baldium
kalaKenyan lmfao
😂😂😂
He should do a Delorean time machine build, license plate: OUTAHAIR.
*puts hydraulic e brake on the off road car and the drift wheels on the daily car*
off road car is known as the rally miata
Amaan Israr and the daily is known as Molly... so??
What’s the point of this comment I’m confused
the point is that you want an hydraulic E brake on a drift car. Was thinking the same thing. Gingium might come to the same conclusion in the near future. Sit back and hold tight!
actually,the daily ain't a thing rn,he did say he going buy a car that have 2JZ and ain't a supra,so molly will proprably be the race car..i guess?
I'm so excited to see you drift! Oh boi, is it gonna be an awesome season where you actually FINALLY get to USE your cars!!!
Just Pasha so why u sell ur beautiful 350
had some financial problems, had to sell the car in order to deal with all that. New project car soon, hopefully...
Just Pasha rally car?
shhhh ahahah
PitchTrails ahah no more hitting the trailer!
Why don't you drift the bus, saves money
Amaan Israr 😂😂😂
Yeah,stupid idea right?
Amaan Israr it’s probably going to flip over
Amaan Israr lol
Or the minivan
Ha! you got the right coffee!
the second shot in this vid, where you open the garage door is absolutely awsome!
That miata is just so beautiful. Watching it never gets old. Please make sure it stays beautiful!
Yeeeeeeeee!!!! Molly's back!!!! Never sell her!!!!
The secret to getting those bushings out is a torch. Lots and lots of heat. Smells like hell but pops right out.
I am unable to express my JOY that you are swapping in a 3.9 torsen. Good on ya!
Its gonna be so much better
Nearly at 300k. So happy for you m8😁😁😁
Needs. An. Angle. Kit. Asap.
Not really. Miata's have a pretty good amount of angle stock! Still gonna do some chopped knuckles tho
What is the angle?
Yeah atleast knuckles for some angle because it'll just give you a better control all around.
it is just a temporary drift car untill he gets the drift truck, an angle kit is not worth it for that one drift event!
Needs. To. Get. Driving. Experience. Before. That.
I bought a set of 15x7.5 ET35 Dekagrams in "Gloss Bronze" for my black on tan 1999 (NB1) Miata with 205/50R15 all around, really happy with the look. Despite being larger than the stock 15x6 wheels, the weight has actually decreased making the car feel much more agile. Very happy with my purchase.
When I worked at Discount Tire, that was my favorite wheel company because of how light they were. Nice break from the 80+lbs truck wheels we had.
Thank you!
i love the idea of the drift truck
SkittleDick 2.3 single cab ford ranger with more boost than displacement would be perfect lol
Dylan Abel he wants an old Mazda minitruck. They came with rotaries but I think he wants to swap it, not sure but I heard s2k swap? (What is that an f20c?) but I could be wrong about the engine.
seksifrans699 my ranger is as high as you can go from factory and I have very little body roll and steering is very tight but I can’t say the same for all of them
I kid you not , this is one of the cleanest Miata’s I’ve ever seen .
You will definitly crash it... lets pray to the mazda gods to save molly
Mr EeroBotti.. Mazda gods are too busy saving real Mazdas to worry about mx5's lol..
Send it...
I hope I wont
Damn, no faith in Driftium...
Gingium you trashed the rim on the rallyata in an open parking lot
Gingium I don’t doubt you, but I like Molly too much to not say this. Drive conservatively.
In my opinion, in drift, you shouldn't use anything that wears out, except tires. Lsd wears out overtime. Bushings should be solid too. Engine mounts should be solid, 'cause it REALLY helps with clutch kicks and shifts. Ofcourse its your daily... but these solidity mods help for track use too (even welded diffs) Cheers
Gedas Alekveravičius The torsen differential doesn't use the standard clutch pack for a limited slip action, instead use a set or worm and dive gears to provide lock up which dont wear out
The torsen doesnt wear out it is purely mechanical
I agree with everything besides the lsd. I cant stand dailying a welded diff again
Cant you replace “clutches” in an lsd? Think I saw that on Chris fix’s channel
NEVER run solid mounts everywhere in a car, because then... all that torque is gonna go somewhere, and over time the work hardening through torsional stress of the mounts will cause them to crack.
My recommendation is poly engine mounts. solid gearbox and then poly bushes and mounts in the diff.
I say only run solid on the gbox because shifter wobble is the devil.
I love the sound of rain
I love all your content but drifting is definitely my favourite because it’s my biggest passion.
Removing the old diff bushings are no joke man. I have a video up on my channel where I installed the Garagestar bushings also, and I show the technique that I had to use to remove the old ones. Glad I don't have to do that job again.
7 months ago since molly had it's own video..... Glad to see her back :D
Didn't you do the bumper cut last?
On the Turbo Miata he surely didn't do the brakes last. He did the bumpercut after the brakes.
wow I remember that video
Dave no cos remember he had to do another video on the brakes cos the ones he was sent were broken
That's more a fix than it is a mod..
If you’re looking for a good truck for drifting I recommend a 1998ish dodge Dakota, from personal experience super simple to lower and modify/ make power. Sold mine to Justin from RCA( the shop you took the lifted miata to for the coilover installation) and he took the thing to a whole new lever. I definitely recommend talking to him about it and all the different tricks to setting it up for drifting.
Did anybody else see the cool little article from road and track featuring the rally Miata. That shit blew my mind
0bviousnapkin 1 It's not much of an article, just a few sentences. Still very cool though
That miata is the nicest one ive ever seen
I like the work on Molly
Oh WHEELIUM and DRIFTIUM TIME
Always great quality videos! Keep it up Caleb!
Caleb get a fastback top for the miata. they make the car look sick asf
I love how ive started liking your videos right at the beginning. I just trust the video is going to be amazing and i havent been dissapointed yet. Love your vids!
You have an ARTICLE on Road and Track about your lifted supercharged miata
Hyped for the Scooby Miata build!
love the way this car looks
i really like Molly, absolutely beautiful example of a miata!
ALSO! if youre going to Drift molly are you going to do a cut knuckle? and some sort of tie rod end change to handle the driftng?
Best looking Miata in the world!😍😍😍
It's good to see Molly back. Always loved it!
They make fluid that makes the friction diff work properly, likely just needs a proper fluid change
Alright wheelium, I'm really liking that bus.
back to drifting yesssss
I have the same Nitto Neo Gen on my 93 civic. They handle like a dream.
Pro tip, Ging. DO NOT worry about looks with your suspension setup. ONLY worry about performance.
With that in mind, go zero camber rear, maximum negative caster on the front, -2 or -3 degrees front camber, set the rear a little lower than the front, and a little softer than the front in terms of ride height and dampening respectively.
Work from there.
say good bye to clean front fenders, make sure to roll them well and pull them out so the tire doesnt catch under compression
Tazjukie Gaming or just raise the car
I run konigs on my turbo Jetta they’re amazing! Wouldn’t run anything but konigs anymore. Great style,light, strong, and well priced. I hit a hole in the road that would shatter most cast wheels but thanks to konigs flow form process it bent both the outer and inner lip rather than shattering. and even after the bend it held air just off balance.
Thanks for the support my dude!
KONIG WHEELS USA any time! I forgot to mention I’m specifically running your könig hypergrams in red opal 18x8.5 41et
Okay. I just put those bushings into my 4.1 LSD. Find a 3 jaw puller and a plate and a butane torch and heat up the outside of the diff casing around the O.E. bushing. Then hook up the puller and slowly pull them out. I found this to be way easier than cutting it out which did not work for me. If you got your idea to cut it from Greg, it is because he is a lucky miata owner; except when it comes to transmissions.
Burn the bushings out or press them out with a hydraulic press. Can also use a bottle jack.
Not to mention it's the car that grew your channel
Yessss molly returns!!
So exited
Neogens grip awesome, a little too well for the rear if you intend to drift. Great tires for cornering grip.
Try air duster upside down on the bushing because the mass of the bushing so much smaller than the mass of differential the differential act as a heat sink allowing the bushing to shrink and it'll be easier to knock out
So Nice to see Molly on the channel again! !!
my first miata was stock with a torsen LSD and it slid amazing with like 110 hp. So you should have no problem getting down.
Love both miatas the blue one reminds me of the 90 I lost when a 16 year old fell asleep behind the wheel and crashed their Dodge ram into it. Wish I could buy it off you.
You should stick the blue miata's second set of rims on the Rally Miata to see the effects of smaller gripper tires on performance.
The yellow dot on the tire should be the closest to the valve stem ,it's the lightest spot on the tire,the valve stem being the heaviest on t"he rim.
It reduces the amount of lead used to balance tires.
Also,way skinnier tires would be more appropriate to drift with this car's output and weight i think.
It's a lightweight car don't need that big tires.
I love how you called the hydro hand brake the "yeet" stick
Your your videos are finally getting more interesting
By far the cleanest MX-5 on youtube.
Even though the Miata is not that great of a drift car I am still glad to see it back on the channel !
Hey gingium, I've been watching since day 1. I was one of your first subs on my old account. You are an awesome person! I wish I can be like you. Your the best CZcamsr I watched and the only CZcamsr that I watch the entire video. You are the best!
Oh have you not hit 300;000 yet, with the quality of ur videos and how cool your builds are you should easily be at a million, just saying love your videos and I have been here since you had not even a 100,000 subscribers
So this is what Hitman does now nice
Yes finally mollys back
I love the way the thicker sidewalls look. I might be a bit biased though as I can't stand stance.
I totally agree
Woah, hey daddy.
So close to 300K...keep it up Ging
Out of all your builds, this one is my favorite !
I like the wheels and the meaty tires
maybe instead of a drift pickup you should make a drift volvo 200? it would be very original too, it probably handles better for drifting and the redblock engine can easily make plenty of power on stock bottom end. it would also be very reliable cuz you know, it's a volvo. just imagine a boxy volvo wagon shredding the tires sideways on the track :D
Idk if you will see this cause im kinda late to the party but please keep steel wheels on the rally car. The ones you have right now are quite large but make sure you stick with steel until you get legit rally wheels and tires. They are not pretty or light but they are really strong and they are cheap. Alloy wheels will break much easier and will not absorb impacts as well as the steel wheels. The team O'Neil rally school has a great video about what wheels to use and why.
Dude youve almost made it to 300k! CONGRATS!!!!!!!!
HEALTHY AND HAPPY DRIFTIUM CONTENT IS BACK!!! HOON HOOON HOOOOOOOOOON
Damn a KONIG sponsorship... sweet
Mia had always been my favorite car of yours
Get it, it’s and Adam LZ joke😆
0.43 "It's been a long time since we've done something on Molly"
Maybe you can press the bushings out with your tube bender and some magic?
Wheels look sick!!
Put some lighting oil on the diff bushings and burn it out it won't hurt the diff
When you go drifting i would recommed taping up all the bumper to not damage paint
For drifting you normally want -5 camber in the front and +2 or 3 in the back so when it squats there will be no camber and you’ll get maximum grip
I run the same specs of wheels up front, if you hit a bump while steering, your wheel will probably hit the front bumper. (At least mine do.)
Also, theres usually a bult on those sides holding on the bumper lip, I recommend you swap those for tiewraps so your tires don't get shredded by the bolt.
I just thought a road trip idea for you is to take molly, or the rally miata to hoonigan for build breakdown
Liked the video before even watching 🤙🏼
Rafael B same
Always.
I really wanna see the wheels painted white!
YES MOLLY IS BACK FINALLY!!!
I remember removing my miata diff bushes - I still have mental scarring.
Keep at it - usually when you feel like giving up they come out.
nice. everyone says i'm mad for wanting longer gearing in my miata. love this car
For the battle van sliding door, I think you should put double hinges on the top of h the e door so it won't hit the big wheel you installed
I SEE UR PLAN NOW MAN!! NICEEEEE
You have to cut all the way through the bushing shells in a couple spots in order for that method to work. I'm surprised you haven't invested in a cheap hydraulic press for the shop.
I own a Miata and love it but gotta be honest, molly is a fantastic car.
Speaking of the drift car, you should try get the old mini copper truck. It would be interesting
Go to welding supply store and buy some green welding sleeves !!! They are cheap, just do it
300k? i've been watching you for so long and the quality of the videos are so good that i thought that you were at a milion subs at least
You also might an angle kit on the Miata
Oh. There's the "rain and other weather conditions" that canceled the rallycross event.
autocross***
The Tacoma would make a great drift truck, but they can be kinda pricey. But they have great motors and built very well. They also have a lot when it comes to aftermarket parts.
Got really excited to see it spin the tires in second gear in the intro. Then I come to realize it’s raining 😂
5:31 that run tho
youve gotta make another miata build to daily, with like jass performance headlights, and try to make it have as much horsepower without going forced induction. It would be an awesome build to see.
Would have been cool if you did a 300zx drift build. But in still excited for a drift van
