I feel like the auto industry is dishonest and unfair, but after watching your videos for some time, I firmly believe you're a good and decent man. Thank you for everything you post
Thanks! The goal is to try to teach you guys as much as I can so you dont have to rely on the dishonest people.

he could fix everything in my 99 dakota sport 3.9 and jesus that thing needs alot of working on
I mean ehat is mans gonna do? Ask you to pay for ur repairs over yhe internet lol. All jokes hes a goated man
Especially German auto industry with their overhyped and overrated overpriced plastic cars like BMW and Benz.
Damn the excitement in that "whooo" at 11:35
I was pumped if you cant tell haha!!!
Looked like you where a bit lost for words :)
I replayed that over and over lmao
It's the same sort of thing like when you see your friend in a shop and there is clearly a windowing between you and lots of noise from the street but you gesture to them and in a weird sort of soft voice you say "I'll talk to you later". You know they can't hear you but you still say it. Everyone does.

I love how he is so calm with some problems i would just panic
No need to panic! There is a solution to everything!
ChrisFix hi

You're a 5 star mechanic bro. Using the silver marker to cover what you grinded was really going above and beyond
man chris has the best how to videos on youtube, hands down. i love the good video quality and the editing and he explains everything very thoroughly without any confusion. i like how he doesn't use any catchy music or feels the need to jokes around to keep us entertained. i like his no bullshit approach to making these videos and you know sometimes a guy just wants to look up an informative video without having to go thru a bunch of funny guy mechanics or people who are just terrible at explaining/showing things or just really suck at filming what they are trying to show. this guy does it cleanly and simply without over explaining or getting off subject.
keep up the good work. not surprised to see you have over 2 million subscribers. it's because you're good at what you do and you have a way of explaining things that make it easy for us to understand and keep us from feeling overwhelmed when doing it ourselves.
Thanks a lot Saban!!! Comments like this are what keep me going!
he sounds like a professional speaker, he uses his voice to make u feel good, always positive happy tone.

Oliver that's how money is made haha
MCATurtle as long he is drifting were no crowds are near by the mustang is fine
He's making up for the fact that some of his vids were 2 weeks apart when he promises 1 week
MCATurtle maybe He has more time to work on the Car...
Im not installing coilovers.. I dont even have a car, but for some reason i watched the whole video without skipping any parts...
Trippa Snippa atleast you know information now for when you do get a car.
Trippa Snippa just info viewing, I don't have a car either
Trippa Snippa me too bro
Trippa Snippa Yeah me 2 Lol
I think it's his commentary. It sounds so simple and straight forward

Who wants to see him add a supercharger/turbocharger ?
S.H.F CAM turbo
Turbocharged
Super
I prefer he add turbocharger so it gives more power and the sound even nicer to the car
S.H.F CAM Id prefer supercharger, because the power delivery is instant, perfect for when he turns into a corner, and has no power delay when he goes back into throttle, that's my personal opinion
the way he says "good", i feel so proud and i didnt do anything! :D
good
ChrisFix Chris you talk like you watch alot of tv shows as a kid
ChrisFix what's the point of not revealing yourself? You basically see your whole face with the helmet.
I also myself ask this, considering he showed his full face once on his instagram.
Know anyway to lift instead of lower?
11:23 "wow he actually did it" xD
Well what do they know? As if they know how to drift "ahahahahahhaha"

Lmfaooo underrated as HELL
I've become a mechanic mainly from your videos
you have videos for everything and it's so detailed its so helpful
so thank you. I finally know what I'm going for in life.
Engine bay cleaning tutorial please 😫😫
It is one of the next videos as seen on the side bar!
ChrisFix side bar? - quick question, when is the Roll cage video planned to be done / put out?
ChrisFix can you see how your gearbox is and the diff also see you know right to go left ok?
gabethebvbe I ask that for the longest . I would like to spray water into the engine

Have you all noticed how he actually interacts with his fans. Proves he’s about helping people and listening to what they want. A true honest man. Well done!
I'm loving seeing the progress on the Driftstang! I swear you and Kyle's project car videos are my favorites to watch! I always anticipate the next update. Thank you so much for sharing this journey with us!
My dad is a mehchanic but I don't know much I watch these in my free time then when I help my dad I give him some tips that you give he asked how I know them ,I say Chris fix now we watch you when he is not working thanks Chris your awsome.
bro when i was reading this in the last part i thought it said that ur dad stopped his work and watched Chris instead watching him in free time. xD
James Gamer__ i do the same😂
Damn dude - learn to write punctuation first, then watch ChrisFix videos!
Andrey Ivanov "Write punctuation" dude stfu!

Engine bay cleaning please!!!!!!😫 i will love you forever.
He said it's coming in a comment on one of the earlier videos.
Bah, that is funny...Yes, how do you clean these PLASTIC topped micro connected dynamic engines of today? Their made disposable by design ....25 years ago, if I told you of crappy "Spider Injection" systems on future chevys...you would of never believed me.
I am currently working on "How to SuperClean your Engine Bay" and that is the next video! Lots of awesome info coming your way!
I've gotten so used to the Mustang being so low that it's hard to believe that this was its original ride height.
It was pretty high before!
I typically dont enjoy any CZcams channels to be honest. But this is by far my favorite and the best channel on youtube in my opinion. So well organized and informational for those who arnt really mechanically inclined. Im a young Infinti Master Technician and aspiring drifter aswell. So i know pretty much everything youre doing. But you have still taught me several things. Its nice seeing someone teach uninformed people the right way to work on cars. Keep up the amazing work man.
have to study for exams, whatever it's chrisfix!
William MacDonald school got out last week what are you talking about
Study, you need it!

ChrisFix A guy that will tease you with the videos you know you want on his video previews. 0:12
You know it :P
You don't know how much I've waited for that engine cleaning video from ya
I've always stayed away from installing coilovers just for the fact that i've never installed them before. With watching your video seems like i've overthought the process! Looks like i might be suggesting coilovers from now on, on any drag/track cars that come in!
It's like any other shock/strut replacement!
Chris I've been watching a lot of your videos in order and it's so cool how you break everything down. So excited about cleaning and possibly making repairs on my own car. Actually lift up the hood to just see what's in there, something I haven't really done since getting a newer car. Thanks for all the transparency and how-to vids. All the best.
2 inch lower on a mustang is a must, rides so much better. Great job Chris!
that car bounces like crazy on initiation
Yea I need to get the valving dialed in!
ChrisFix when will you put spacers on the driftstang
best clear, and comprehensive diy video i've seen on youtube.great job!
Always professional and articulate, good job, one idea spay the wheel wells with some black under coat, little details, also prevents rust and I would to the floor boards as well live in Canada so it's a must lol
Everytime I watch one of these videos it leaves me with a smile and makes me want to pull out the old tool box. Thanx Chris!
Another awesome ChrisFix video!
And there you have it. Not just a masterclass in auto maintenance, but also a masterclass in CZcams production - don't even bother with the others. The best visuals; the best editing; the best on CZcams. You just can't beat a ChrisFix video!
Thank you for the fun at the track was awsome a little fun makes for some energy to furthur my anxiousness for more.
Good job on getting coilovers and trying them out! You most likely have some things to set up with them, so I thought I'd give you a few hints. A slight toe out is good for steering response. Naturally, exact settings depend on the specific make and model, driver preference and driving style and many other smaller factors as well, but slight negative camber and a little toe out up front is always good. On my car I run -2 camber and 2mm of toe out. The rule of thumb with street tires is: if you can see it, it's excessive. Also, check your ride height up front - you don't want it lowered past the point where your control arms are horizontal. That will most likely introduce some undesirable handling characteristics.
Good job and keep practicing!
Chris, we've come far, i'm so proud of you 🌟!
This video is so good, clear video and instructions, no annoying voice to deal with while learning... Top notch work dude, well done.
been binge watching your drift videos.its something ive always wanted to try but watching them has finally pushed me into looking for a car to start out with.
Damn Chris, where have you been all my life. Subbed.
yesss chrisfix video

Spent the whole day watching all the videos on this driftstang. Interesting stuff. Can't wait to see the roll cage and 6 point harness.
Chris fix has inspired me I'm going to UTI universal technician to became a professional mechanic thank you Chris fix ur#1 fan abel Salazar 👍
11:54 "the car is finally behaving." he says as he spins out on the track.
ChrisFix time for a steering angle kit !!!!
It is being made as we speak!
ChrisFix hell yeah I bet the only way you'll spin out is if you try ! I can't wait to see a drift montage!
I don't see how anyone can dislike this video. It's litterally EVERHTHING that you could ever need to know about installing these AND it's entertaining to watch. Like...? Who couldn't like this???
You cracked me up for a change. Seriousness and a little fun go along way.
Awesome bro! Just a thought...the car looks like it's jumping a bit .... maybe it's a bit too stiff...?
Wheel hop. I need to sort that out next!
Awesome dude!! Looking forward to another video xD
I'm a simple man, i see Chris videos I press the like buttom.
soma Bokhari Cringe at its best right there smh
(soma Bokhari) You should upload a video on how to press the like buttom
flatlander....lol hey i heard you guys call them snowmobiles in MN...hahaha Turnagain HARDCORE!...907 snowmachine! hahaha JK i grew up in MN . if you call it a snowmobile in Alaska they will laugh at you .. those short tracks are cute though..
matanuska high lmao i only rip up the ditches otherwise its not fun. The good thing about flatland is the open fields and huge ass snow drifts.
be careful of those ditches. my buddy Jeremy Zurek died when he hit a tree along the ditches of Isanti.
Yes! I love seeing someone drifting this SN-95 Style!
this guy has the perfect timing and attention to detail, Great vid Chris!
i love your videos you are a awesome youtuber keep doing what your doing
ChrisFix my buddy asked why don't you do real drift mods " like spray paint and stickers" I replied cus he's not a idiot
M&R Tuning every sticker gives you at least 3hp and if you have better one it gives you 5-6hp
Pinstripe is 1000hp
M&R Tuning hahahahaha that's hilarious hahahahaha brilliant hahaha so funny hahaha
Dino, you got it all wrong. Pinstripe is only 500, the i-VTEC DOHC sticker is 1000. VTEC KICKED IN YO
M&R Tuning ahahaha XD
I just love the level of explanation he's giving. keep it man
So much attention to detail and patience. I commend you sir!
On our roads you should do how to higher your car.
haha
Anonime you mean how to raise?
No, how to higher.
Felix No how to raise is the correct terminology
Okay guys thank you for corecting my mesessage. I know my english is not very good I am from Slovakia.
Step one remove suspension
step two enjoy
Misael Chavez what should i do with my coilovers then?
lmao thats gonna be a very comfy ride
*step 1.5 get life insurance

ChrisFix oops i forgot to add step 3
Step 3: add skid plates
Enjoy!

Was great to see you actually have fun with your work!
Chris inspired me to create my own CZcams! Also is the main reason I know what I know rn! THX SO MUCH CHRIS!
Hey Chris you need to print out Holy Smokes stickers haha

I just love how humble Chris is
Great video. Very organized and plenty of useful tips along the way. Well done.
Hey Chris I’ve watched every single one of your videos and I have to replace a power steering pump can you do a video on it? I’d really appreciate it. I’ve replaced brake rotors, pads, and hubs on my 2007 Nissan Murano only by watching your videos. Thanks!
Waiting the day, that Chris will meet AdamLZ, it would be fucking awesome, my top 2 CZcamsrs #StayTuned
Thanks. You present very well. Clear, concise, instructions that are easy to understand and follow.
Morse videos on the track! Its realey fun to see!!!
his voice when he is happy makes me smile

bout to get a 98 mustang so i know how to fix everything on it because i know Chris is gonna keep pumping out these videos.
Great Job Chris. You explained the problems that can be encountered very well AAA+++
when chris says "good" i feel like a good boy
You should make a playlist just for the mustang
ivan pulido He already has one.
ivan pulido it's the driftstang!!!
Love your videos... I learn so much... thank you and keep them coming...
Great work bro! Hope to get my coilovers soon
Rear suspension is bouncing nicely. I think the damping is too stiff.
i'd say it's too stiff. the tires have quite a bit of sidewall and i feel like the suspension can't soak it up
Too stiff*
I am having wheel hop issues that need to be sorted. I think poly bushings are next!
Hello Chris get you some Ladder bars to "FIX" the wheel hop 👍
NUCK CHORRIS I just noticed those are the Federal 595 tires.
Chrisfix can you make a video on how to get extra power in the driftstang?
Trever Hamel sell it and buy a camaro.
Or turbos
Tray Muse that sounds great and all but even though turbos are an effective means for extra power they aren't great for a course because of the need to gain boost it isnt going to provide as much power as you would think throughout a course. A blower would be more effective in that case, but i was asking for more of a cheaper means to get that extra little power out of the motor.
Trever Hamel you asked fir more power
Intake, testpipe, exhaust, etc are basic starters.
Basically small engine upgrades, nothing is really "cheap" though, I own an 1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT and I've been modifying it, and everything is easily 150-400$ per mod (sometimes more) coilovers are 800-1200$ for a decent brand.
Expect to spend a decent amount.
Since this is an SN95 Mustang, it has the Ford 4.6L Modular engine. Stock it makes 215hp and about 280 lb/ft of torque. The main restriction is in the heads and intake, so a cheap and easy way to add power is to get the heads and intake off of a 1999-2004 Mustang GT. Those are known as PI (performance improvement) components, and they were standard on the 1999-2004 Mustang GTs. With the PI heads and intake your horsepower jumps to about 260hp, with the torque being around 300. Quite an improvement for some parts that you can literally buy at a junkyard. For a little more performance, you can also toss in a set of performance camshafts from Comp Cams, along with some beehive valve springs. That should put you around 300hp for under $1000 all in. Another thing that really wakes these old Mustangs up is an improved diff ratio. Something like a 3.73 or 4.10 rear end will really help these cars move off the line.
Chris , I like you so so much and I like your way in fixing and explaining all the details , thank you so much because I learned a lot from you
Love your vids bro! You've saved me and my mates thousands! I've also made money doing some of your tips for my mates. Keep up yours stuff! ❤️❤️❤️
