So it's been a while because I was severely sick for 2 weeks (really bad food poisoning or a stomach virus) and I couldn't even get out of bed. I haven't been sick for over 10yrs but man did this one hit me hard! Luckily I am all better but please please please follow me on Facebook or Instagram (I like instagram better) so you can get updates and know what's happening between videos! I try my best to keep you guys in the loop and for everyone who does follow me thanks for all the support and messaging me "get well soon" because it helped!

Seeing his mom walk out and put her hands on her hips like that while he was revving it was my absolute favorite part. I can recall so many times my mom giving me and my buddies the same look. That’s what makes ChrisFix so relatable and enjoyable!
Wait'll she hears the Harley big twin's straight drag pipes ROFL.
Came here for this comment. I was slightly interested in these videos and now I’m sucked in. I can’t wait to get my new truck now.
The neighbors at my parents complained cause I was getting back from dates at 2AM... the glasspacks on my 4-banger Cortina had to go!
Noise without more horsepower is a waste....

Literally the only reason why i looked through the comments
Hey Chris, thanks for being a teacher. I recently had my car totaled and insurance payed about half the vehicle worth. (no I wasn't at fault) I ended up buying a 2001 civic ex that looked roughed up but drove smooth. Got home to realize the guy cleared the codes on the car and hid a lot of the issues. Ive spent days working on it with rented hand tools from Auto-zone and borrowing some from my brother in law. Ive had to take it to a mechanic for some stuff that was out of my depth but your videos are the best. I was always anxious about messing things up but seeing you do it with such clear instructions, amazing tips most people would forget to mention, and using hand tools has changed my perspective. The car has potential, nobody else can see it and they keep pushing me to sell it. I'm going to prove everyone wrong thanks to you though, even if i end up replacing every single inch of that car over the coming years. Right now I'm stuck just trying to afford to keep it in running condition, but I plan on making it my own. I haven't had any mechanical experience before a week ago but i replaced my entire suspension system already, replaced a fuel pump that went out on me while driving. The power steering pump is next and I'm sure you have a video covering that lol. I also have an interview for a service tech apprentice at my local Honda dealership tomorrow. Wish me luck!
P.S.
I have an 05 Civic EX and I’m going through sort of the same thing. These days i rarely see 7th gen civics; I only see 6th gen or 8th gen and up. So just wanted to say good luck with the build it’ll be worth it

@@xiggyproductionz2982 yay, someone that agrees that 7th gen coupe handles well. I have an 04 manual that I love.
At least it’s a Honda and it’s cheap and easy to work on and fix, you would’ve been fucked if it was a BMW or something lol
This is the best channel. As someone who got into cars late in life, (32) working on cars can be intimidating. I have learned so much from the internet but your videos have helped me the most by FAR. So much detailed information and presented in a clear and concise way that doesn't lose my attention. Thank you Chris. Installing my AWE touring exhaust on my 21 WRX tomorrow morning and will be using a lot of the tips from this video. Especially the cold water one since I have to drive the car to the spot I am installing it. I wish you all the best.
Awesome Ryan! Glad the videos are teaching you a lot
Lol 32 isn't "late in life" unless you're talking about math competitions, reflexes dependent skills, violin or athletics.

I can't believe it's been five years since this came out. holy crap. I remember when this video first came out. This channel has come so far. It's crazy looking back and seeing how long ago this came out and how young I was watching it for the first time.
This is why Chris fix is the best diy channel right now. It probably takes 2-3 times as long to do a job when you’re filming this way and you could have just chosen a few camera angles and called it a day, but no you film each nut and bolt clearly and then edit it and add voice overs so that it’s extremely clear for everyone. Beautiful

19:37 According to science, it is impossible for a man to tighten something up without saying "that's going nowhere"
Can confirm
ŁŁŁŒŒŒŁŁŁ
Its a sheer sign of a man complementing himself for a wonderful tightening job.
Its like giving yourself a pat in the back and a high five all at the same time
**a white man**
Same as a man tightening a strap on a truck or on a trailer and saying "yep, that's not going anywhere"
His mom disappointed at him revint the car is probably the funniest thing ever😂😂
Always great videos from Chris! THANKS, Chris! And yes, installing a performance exhaust increased the horsepower and torque on my car. Especially when the new exhaust system involved removing the resonator. And the sound is soooooo great. It's like a roaring lion when I get on it, and it purrs like cat when idling.
Since the audio is always so crisp and clean I always figured it's a voice over recorded off site, but then I always imagine ChrisFix doing all of his hand gestures, but silently.
Saaaaaame
53prime I thought the same thing as well! But I realized when he crawls under the car you can hear his voice change due to him moving tightly. It kinda grunts a lil bit.
Essentially Suck or if he’s torquing something down his voice changes by pressure
Your mom looked like she was about to beat you 😂

I'm seeing this video after 5 years. I'm so sorry I didn't see it sooner always thought it was some big expensive job for the mechanics but I see that this can easily be done with any cars exhaust.
Thank you
Is this guy freaking Incredible or what?
I know how to install an exhaust system…yet I have watched this video at least 7 times just because it’s pure entertainment. Love this channel !
15:08 his mom comes out and shakes her head
Yeah I noticed that aswell lmao
Even a geko who was hiding somewhere under my computer table came out XD
Haha! Best part of the video
that's enough 😀

My mechanic said not to watch Chrisfix.
I fired him.
Lol :v
Promoted to customer.
F..k your mechanic
Mechanics don’t like crisfix because he teaches people how to do things themselves and they want to charge people $1,000s for things that take acouple hours
Lol

Which skyline you got? My neighbour has a race spec r33
That was hilarious!

I remember the day this video came out, chris your videos are amazing
Your advice of spraying bolts once a day for a few days before you attempt this is bang on! I've never had a problem with stuck bolts since I started doing it a year or so ago!
You are correct, and Chris is correct, and I don't know why this is not on the instructions of any anti-seize sprays on the market.
Sir Eddie I thought exactly the same thing myself haha!
Hey Chris: real nice work on this mod with an after market exhaust. BUT can you also review the basic cat converter install, replace, selection, mechanics? I had some issues with a GMC small box truck and a Jeep Wrangler -- all related to catalytic converters, oxygen sensors, installs, removals, etc. You have lots of videos on fluids, exterior and interior detailing, and so on. Many nice tips on those. How about doing some on cats, O2 sensors, fuel filter changes,...? I think you would get lots of views on these more common problems.
I just bought a 2000 Ford Mustang love your videos man
Chris deserves way more subscribers tbh.

N3On that's the only way you'll know how to fix.
Awesome video, one suggestion: when you are tightening up the bolts(after mocking it up), make sure the exhaust is even on both sides at the rear. Look at your specific cars lines to make sure they are symmetrical coming out of the rear of the car. :)
My exhaust on my H2 Hummer needs replaced. I feel so confident now. Thx dog.
You got this! Lmk how it goes!

You can man! Glad the videos are helpful!
And where is the Muffler Bearing
MrBlackScreen it came with a new one already. :)
Ah good XD
He must have installed it off camera. I didn't notice him add any catalytic converter fluid either so he must have done that off camera when he installed the muffler bearing.
...and don´t forget about the blinkers fluid :D
MrBlackScreen you know there actually is such a thing. Still looking for blinker fluid, but exhaust bearing, it's a real thing.
I’m in the process of getting a 96 rio red convertible next month, and boy do I wish those links still worked 😢 exhaust sounds amazing.
