เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 2 เม.ย. 2020
My name is Michael Duong. I'm a science teacher by trade and an unqualified backyard mechanic and car wrecker outside of work hours. I initially started this channel as "Science with Mr Duong" during the initial COVID period to help my students better learn and understand science while we were all in lock down.
In my first year of working full-time as a teacher, I had the brilliant idea of spending the majority of my first year salary in buying my very FIRST MANUAL car, which also happened to be my FIRST SPORTS CAR; the Subaru WRX VA 2016 MY17. Now I create videos about cars, anything from DIY car mods (explaining the science behind car mechanics, parts and performance) to car culture and share cool stories people may have about their car, and/or just admiring cars and car spotting at events.

First Time at Power Cruise was GNARLY | The Aussie V8 experience
In this episode, I spend the day at SMSP, for my first fully hectic aussie V8 experience. Power Cruise is an event celebrating all things V8. I got my first V8 experience at this event, to which I'm normally not too much of a fan of. BUT, I came in with an open mind, to meet some new people and to learn about why Australians LOVE V8s so much.
I'm used to seeing giant wings, big wheels, splitters and crazy amounts of grip at the track, however, the guys here PURPOSELY put on narrower wheels, they shorten their wheel axles for less traction so that they can drift and slide better!
Mark from took me for a spin in his 1980's Holden WB Ute, with a Turbo LS1, making somewhere between 750-800 HP!! How insane?!?! The fastest car I've been in, and the craziest amount of g-force I've felt in a car. This thing was insane!!
Enjoy the episode

He was not looked after very well at all. Mclaren's dominance persists, and its a...

In this episode, we check out the Honda Accord Euro CL9. Growing up, this was one of the cars I definitely wanted to get my hands on.

I don't know much about Honda heritage and have only become a fan of their more r...

This was a awesome video and I really appreciate your efforts and time! By the way your English is fantastic!
How much is the bumper and where did u buy those?
I just bought my 03 Honda Accord Euro Luxury off my father, was the third one ever sold, straight from the show room.
Love the content bro. Do they fold when u lock the car from the touch sensor on the door and open when u touch the handle to unlock?
Cheers mate! They sure do.
I saw u at liverpool maccas today
Hahah caught me snacking on my way back from work.
Your the best
Cool video. I would praise the car if I didn't one on my drive way waiting to be fixed right now, 2008 CL9 Euro automatic, 180k km, cylinder 3 misfire (bad coil, replace one just 4 months ago), power steering rack leaking leaving puddle on the driveway, radiator is leaking from the top, forming goop around the seam and one of the shock has gone bad. But yeah pretty solid car, good power, great for learning DIY, plenty of resources online I wish I have the manual version though. Also might do a valve adjustment soon.
Yes verry fun car,I have Accord euro CL9 2.4ivtec 08 when was stock 190ps but now Vtec kicks after 4300rpms(stock 6000) and i done full custom exaust.Car is black in very good shape.Im second owner from 120,000km now 208,000km..My licence will be suspended for few mounts.And i do more thing on car. Stronger brakes is allready on car,stronger bushings..New tyres,serviced,oil Motul 5w30, filter and oil in AT trainny,spark plugs...And i have more plans.Bigger injectors LSD from euroR.. I few mounts ago i want to change her for 2018 Accord coupe 3.5..But i cancel that because in test drive,i was amaized but dashboard after 10km became christmas three(bad example) Dude try my car...None...I didnt saw check never Cheers from Serbia
Because it's Direct injection can't go e85? My vf is flex from factory. Does he just mean e85 injectors for the i30 hasn't come out yet?
Jealous asf
How much bar can it hold + you are pushing? Mine is tuned to 1.3b but with any BOV like GFB Respons and HKS SQV IV, both doesnt allow me to hold more than 1.1b. But the problem goes away when i am using another BOV/BPV which allows me to do that. Gfb stood by their product reliability and their claims.
I've got no idea mate. Running a very moddest tune.
Where can I get this body kit
Not a fan tbh
Very nice VX 2. Love the interior touches of the VY (Pedals, leather, floor mats and black roofliner & pillars). Looks very tidy overall, even down to the fresh clear coolant reservoir and power steering reservoir. I'd recomend getting the silver air vents too, would really set it off nicely. Super jealous of the leather seats, looks like they're in great condition. Beautiful car!
Its a chev motor aint Australian holdens could never make a good Australian motor like the barra 🇦🇺💯
Mate, no one said anything about competing with anything else in this video... always get wankers trying to compete or say x is better than y. Not what this video is about mate.
I don't like v8s? ooh they're too loud,then you wanna make a you tube channel in Australia?faaarkn Sheila 🤮
Why do people say 'before covid'. Pretty sure people had respiratory problems and pneumonia before March 2020.
Bcos used car prices went absolutely crazy during and after covid. A lot of shops were closed or open on limited basis so could not get work done
That engine would be put to good use in a 105 series land cruiser on 35 inch tires.
Loool the only thing more aussie than this is that 😂
Chris and I are thankful for giving us the chance to showcase one of the cars from our fleet. Hope to do more features in the future. Keen to see this channel grow🤙🏽
Nice example of an SS but not an aussie v8!
Is it not? I thought it was an Aussie car! Or do you mean the engine?
I’m guessing it’s an LS1 5.7 Chev engine - originally.
Yeah brotha gotta get some more commy v8s on the channel that was fat as
Nice car. And well done for the rescue. The interior is what I want on my VY
Thanks for another cool feature about a different car / build style. Yeah the Mr MDTV
Thanks mate. Defs a new experience for myself, loosey goosey on the track
What dealership did he buy from?
Nice bloke
He's a top bloke indeed
you should call you car a rescue because u saved it from being wrecked🤣
Hopefully Chris sees this comment 😂
love it
Great video man. Props to the owner, it looks like he has put in a lot of work into the car. How does the car feel compared to a wrx in terms of raw power?
Cheers mate. The power band is very linear, can definitely feel the power difference - so much more G force pushing back upon acceleration. Car felt great, super comfortable, yet doesn't feel like a boat. Great props to Chris, great car, even better dude
Took a COVID jab 😂😂 what a commitment U still alive bro
Strong and healthy as ever 🤙💪
So set at 50% it would sound the same as the hybrid?
Yup
One of the most unreliable car 😢 still got my one and brakes down at least every 3months than
Looks like you've got the bad badge
Owned the car for 12 years and I've given up with it, money pit with these older cars
Oh my, I was going to say, engine is solid, but older car do be like that sometimes. Here are the problems we had on our 2008 Accord Euro CL9 in 4 years: Wheel bearing Accelerator paddle sensor This year: Starter motor Sway bar link Ignition coil blower motor power transistor. Car is on my driveway right now i am waiting for parts Ignition coil (another one but different cylinder phew) Leaky radiator causing goop leaking out from top. Non critical things i just live with now: Power steering rack leaking leaving puddles on driveway Bad shocks. vtec solenoid screen, vtec actuator gasket slow leak. The trunk have small leak and pools water at the spear tyre wheel well causing moldy smell on rainy days. Great platform to learn how to work on car though, we were going to sell it when the starter broke but then i decided to fix it myself. It was a tough job for me, there is a youtube vid showing how to do it in 20 mins, it took me more than 10 hours. 😢 I have done all the maintenance and fixes myself after getting a set of tools. One nice thing I do like about Honda is that they try to make things serviceable, for e.g they only use hex fastener that are 10, 12, 14, 17, 19, you don't even need the full socket set to work on the car. Only thing I would complain on this engine is the filter is almost horizontal and when you change it it pours oil on to the drive shaft. :( I don't need the rust prevention thank you. And no stand alone fuel filter, it's attached to the fuel pump i think. (although it haven't needed to replace it so maybe it's fine).
Totally agree i just recently spent over 3k on the cl9. engine is solid, but all the other parts are braking down on me, the car is literally in the garage every 3months 😂@@roycai8895
Air going back to the turbo cold side will not spin the turbine backwards. It will slow it down the turbine, means you need a bit more time for the turbo to spool up to normal speed again. The stutututu sound comes from the pressure getting chopped up from going back and against the spinning turbine.

Love it. I've had my 03 euro r for 7 years. Stock other than wheels/tires/susp and intake. This makes me wanna do the headers and flash tune!
What times around the eastern creek
1m43s while drifting a few corners on worn tyres no aero and street suspension. there's a sub 1m40s in it
Bit misleading with the evo 10 motor call and fuel system. Plenty N's making more power than 312kw.
Wait why is that misleading? It shares bottom end with evo 10... fuel system is upgraded.

Great video! Thinking about getting the Voston comfort MCA's on my Levorg STI. Any chance you can review those?
Not likely mate. But the Vostons are cheaper because they're not fully made by MCA in Aus, so they aren't able to monitor QC of everything like they do their Pro series
yeahhh the boys sir
Haha randomly exploded.. 😂
