so i thought it's time for another workshop update we're outside this time which is a
bit inconvenient because it's super bright but um what it started outside because the mini and the
van are both parked outside the van was on the lift last time still doing the turbo conversion
and that's now done apart from managed to put a hole in the radiator uh when i was
reassembling it which i didn't realize until after i struck it up so that's a bit annoying i need to
strip it to put the radiator on and the mini which are put through an mot um and it only failed on
wipers which is a little bit unbelievable so i managed to find a friendly motif or a
uh a classic friendly motor i guess you would say you know they're a bit uh sympathetic to um
how classic cars aren't always so legal i guess or so motable but yeah so i just need
to change the wiper motor because the wipers are really weak it's uh it's a mini thing
they're kind of slow but yeah we'll uh have a look at what's changed inside on the yellow lift now
which is what the van was on we got a bmw m4 that warren brought um a couple of weeks ago actually
the plan was actually not to bring this car so early but we've had a few things change in our
kind of scheduling of what cars we may be working on when um so we kind of brought it early we did
have um turbos to go on it we're doing a uh g series twin turbo kit but as soon as we got them
out of the box kind of realized that actually maybe a reverse rotation turbo would fit better
turns out they're out of stock for about four weeks which is a bit annoying because
now basically the car is on the lift for four weeks and we basically can't do anything with it
so that's the plan with that but i think whilst it's here we might also mock up a
big single kit as well because that's what warren wants to run which we did mention a
while back that we were going to be doing that but it would kind of save doing it on warren's
car as soon as we've got a car here which is already stripped we might also do an exhaust
system on it but it's really going to depend on time scales there's loads of systems on the
market for these and it does seem like the most popular thing to do with these is actually just
chop out the silencers that seems to be what most people do rather than buying an extol system the
problem with aftermarket systems is they can be so expensive because it's essentially two exhausts
so it's um you know i guess cost saving just get your silencers chopped out and they sound pretty
good they don't really need an exhaust system to get power gains they're already pretty powerful so
yeah that's that we've got the driftworks gr yaris on the blue lift which we're
doing exhaust development on you've probably already seen videos on that
that's coming along nicely we're just at the stage of making jigs now um so yeah we'll have
some noise videos of that soon and i'm sure you'll see driftworks making lots of videos with it so
yeah i can't believe that anybody's following our channel that's not following there so
yeah definitely go and subscribe to them and watch out for the yaris videos and all their
other cool stuff phil's got like so many [ __ ] cool cars gt3 rs uh 964 m3 csl um
like literally electrical cars got an rs6 they've got the gi rs they've got literally so many so
many cool cars that they make videos on all the time skyline's moved back now we're working on
the intakes for the skyline at the minute you'll see that fairly soon uh some titanium intakes
this time the last time we did the previous kind of kit because obviously we started again
um after i'd kind of done the intake sam mentioned that he would kind of like titanium ones so
that's what we're doing there'll be some cool stuff with that still smashing through stuff with
the mantle bender for all of our fabco customers keeping us really busy my car hasn't moved
k20 engine in it hasn't really moved is the least priority um don't expect this project to
come along that quickly it's a bit of a binky this one i think um hopefully it doesn't take seven
years but this is definitely the least priority thing that's in the workshop it's uh not a big
job but you know it's like a personal thing really so yeah that's gonna be the last thing um warren's
car now runs which you might have seen if you watch the most recent video on warren's car that
now runs it just needs bits and bobs basically we've got a list of bits and bobs to work through
to like essential stuff before it could race and then warren's i mean i talked him into
it initially but now he's adamant he does want a flat floor and some big arrow i don't really
know much about that other than what i've read on the internet so that's going to be a fun process
learning about all that and constructing it all we've got some uh dive on sheet for the floor
so yeah we'll have some videos on that pretty soon um other than that it's just been uh
standard uh mac crushing uh on welding production that's been uh
that's working on jigs for the gi yaris so uh yeah i think that's about it um
we have had recently a couple of people asking for like custom stuff and why don't we do custom stuff
just thought i'd fret on the end of this video we haven't ever done custom stuff really
obviously we have got stuff in the workshop that is custom but this is my car that's warren's car
that's sam's car these are all people i know or projects i really really want to do
or product development it's not that i don't want to do someone's specific thing or it's just
it's not what we do we make products we sell those products we're a business that's how we make money
we don't get cars in do one-off exhausts we don't really do custom downpipes to suit uh whatever
we can't make a custom intake for your whatever um it's just not something we've ever done um maybe
in the future who knows but at the minute we just don't really have the capacity to do it so yeah
just tag that on the end there but yeah thanks for watching and uh we'll see you again soon
