- What do you guys want?
Actually yeah, we did drag race, can you guess who won?
- [Man] Wait, did you race against--
- [Man] Alex won by like a 10th of a second.
- It doesn't matter if it's a second or a mile bro.
Winning is winning.
- It's gonna be even more preppy off the line.
- Apparently it has a different differential
in it for some reason.
- Yes its called (beep) and it's pretty bad.
(upbeat music)
Are you recording?
- Yeah Dakota and John do you guys want to stand over there?
- Hello there neighbor.
You guys might be wondering what we're doing
here with the E30.
So here is really what's going on
in all honesty the E30 is still alive, it's here.
In case you guys didn't remember last time you saw it
I whooped Dakotas (beep) at the drag strip
and I'm never gonna let it go.
However we have not touched it in a hot minute
and unfortunately we have what's called,
what is it called?
A job, right?
- [Group] Yeah.
- Yeah we have a job.
We can't actually work on this as much as we want to.
So we decided what better way to hand it over to a group
of professionals that have never finished an actual car
in there entire life.
- Branded Title, and here they are!
- Hey guys.
- We are going to be working with Branded Title over
the next four episodes to help us
out on getting some things fixed.
Is that right?
- Yes, get it drivable again.
- What are we fixing Joe?
- Change out the suspension a little bit.
We got a nice little air system we're gonna be installing.
We got some custom wheels that we're going
to be throwing on.
- One on.
- Custom. - One off.
- One of one baby!
- One of one wheels.
We got some interior bits so the interior
has door handles and things.
So you don't have to pull the little--
- Oh yeah that's right!
- Gotta get the (clicks door),
and that's how you open the door.
- [Bearded Man] So we're going to get that fixed.
A new differential because this one
sounds like it's about to blow up.
- It's a little clunky, isn't it?
- Yeah.
- And like I'm assuming that we're going for a little
bit of weight reduction, right?
- Oh, of course yeah.
- Yeah so do we need any of this?
What is this?
We don't need that and I don't want it anymore.
We're done with it, okay.
Stop putting it back in there.
- We probably need that.
- We're probably going to need that.
Do they not pay you to have heat
in this building, or what?
(mumbles)
- We haven't fixed anything yet.
(relaxing electronic music)
- John, why don't you tell me a little about yourself
and Branded Title, Mr. Mechanic.
What are you doing with your hands?
(laughs)
What is that?
- I'm awkward I don't know how to do this.
- Just put them down.
Okay so what are you doing?
What are you going to do?
- The stuff that you just said.
- You're gonna work on it?
- I'm gonna work on it.
- I have high confidence.
- We're gonna make it drivable.
- Okay, and?
- That's the main goal.
- Are you gonna make it fast?
- I don't believe so.
(laughs)
We're doing the diff's on my stuff.
- There is so much wrong with this car
that you don't even know what's wrong with the car.
So as you dive in--
- There's more?
- Maybe.
Did you, I mean you noticed that it looks really good
standing still but--
- You drove the car right?
- Have you driven it?
- No, never.
- Oh!
- Before you do anything you should go
whip it around the block real quick.
- Yeah go give her a quick two,
three turns there bud and see what happens.
- So this is why I'm not on the same page right now.
- But it looks really good.
- It looks super good.
(door thuds)
(mumbles)
[Cameraman] We got these, this is (rubs door).
- [Joe] Now your hand is full of gargle, got you.
- [Camera Man] Thank you.
- We were at the drag strip and we were driving
and I was man-spreading the whole time
and I go get out of the car.
I'm like, what the (beep) is all over
my pants and it's just the inside
of the car is all over me.
- [Man] Ope you gotta turn the key.
Oh the windshield wipers work!
- [Camera Man] At least the battery is still good.
- Battery is still good!
- Are you good?
- [John] No.
(electronic music)
- Can you pop the hood, so that I can just
do the most exciting part of owning a car like this?
If we still have the button.
(mumbles)
- [Man] Down to the left.
- Nope too far, there you go.
- [Man In Car] I don't feel it.
- Up there, there you go.
Wham!
Boom!
- Best part of the whole car.
- 92 horse power or there abouts give or take.
- It is a full swap kit just sitting right there.
- I know, I mean I'm not telling you what to do.
- I am, do it.
(laughs)
- It needs something, that's 97 crank horsepower?
- Yeah, but it looks good.
Look at how good it looks.
- [Joe] We got this.
- And technically it is running better
than one, two, three, 75% of the vehicles
that you have in the shop right now.
- Those three run.
- And drive?
- So 25%, well, does this drive?
- Yeah.
- Barely!
- It won't make it down that street I will tell you that.
(bumps car)
- [Camera Man] That exhaust sounds great.
- Like it just, the whole thing is a unit.
Yeah I would say that this is going to be an area
of opportunity for improvement.
(kicks exhaust)
- Well I thought it was going to be easy
but now I'm a little worried.
- The budget is $42.
And you have six days.
- That's actually not too far from the truth.
(laughs)
- If I'm allowed a small budget I can whip
something up for you.
- I am telling you that in terms of officially,
you must stay on budget and you
must only buy the parts associated
with the build, however, if something comes along and you
find it for a relatively good price just let us know.
- I will, I'll do that.
- Just letting everybody know.
Just saying if there is an opportunity I'm just you know.
(mumbles)
- I got some tricks up these sleeves bud.
(relaxing electronic music)
(screeches)
- [Camera Man] You excited?
- Sort of (laughs).
Wow.
- I do that all the time.
- [Camera Man] Was that a beard for the gram?
- Oh absolutely.
- [Camera Man] Sweet.
- They're cheap enough to just get a rebuilt unit versus
repairing it yourself, that's the way to go with that.
- Would you say a rebuild kit was more
expensive than the freakin' new one?
- Pretty much.
- Wow it's brown to me.
Oh yeah Corey painted it.
- The sub-frame yeah.
- Yeah spray painted it, you can tell.
- I don't think this is going sideways on not snow.
- I think it can go sideways if you had
more of a winning attitude.
- Oh!
- [Cameraman] Wow, called out.
- I need that winning budget.
Sweet so get the stock wheels on here.
Make it a little easier to move around.
A little easier to drive, a little easier
to diagnose everything else that's wrong with this.
And then we'll move right into the suspension.
A little magic dust in there, see what we can come up with.
Get her driving real good and then we're going to hit
that diff and it should be good to drive.
Full stage zero, get her going.
Then we'll move around from there.
Doing this awkward hand thing.
- So with that being said we're asking E30
along with Branded Title, we will be involved.
And when everything goes well we're gonna take joint
credit and when everything goes poorly it's your fault.
So is there anything else you want to add to that Dakota?
- No that's about it.
Just try to savor, try to do your best.
- And if you guys haven't subscribed to Branded Title,
be sure to do so and if you're on Branded Title
you probably are subscribed to Fitment but if you're not
do that too and of course be sure to have fun.
Drop some comments, get some engagement going I don't know.
If you guys want us to change something on the car
let us know.
After all this is your car, this isn't even our car.
We just ask for a bunch of money from Shawn and then he says
yes so then we ask you guys what you want and here we are.
He doesn't say yes but we do it anyway so.
All right good luck, god speed.
I wish you the best.
- [Camera Man] What time.
