Yay for winter builds! The gauges are New Vintage USA performance II black series gauges. Below is the link. They are expensive but they have some incredible customer service and support if you ever run into issues. newvintageusallc.mybigcommerce.com/performance-ii-3-1-black/

I can’t do that since I don’t have air conditioning 😁

Which mounting points are you referring to? Engine, subframe, transmission etc.

No AC and my mini was LHD originally as it was a Canadian model.

Oh man, brand new shell?!? That will make your build easier for sure! Thanks for watching!

How’s the build going?

@@bernardwarr4187 It's in Version 2.1. Re-did the transmission for lower gearing and added an LSD, so just a few days from testing it on the road again. Hoping I put the transmission together properly so I don't have to take it all out again.

@@bernardwarr4187 Have built up rear end suspension, sent to paint shop as I didn't want to leave it in primer (which is porous) any longer. Next week I will cut out firewall lower area to allow me to fit the minimania R/H drive steering mod kit. Have rebuilt engine and currently building Trans. Installing special 3.47 final drive and Quiafe QDF6U LSD so that I can drive on highway without screaming.

Minimania has that option for you. D or B series as well. K series is even an option if you extend the front nose.

@@aguilas583 thanks for the quick reply!

Thanks for watching! It is a bit daunting especially at the beginning. Typically the ecu gets power from the fusebox I believe in the stock Honda setup. The fusebox or relay box gets the 12V from the starter which is connected to the battery. Overall that is the general flow. You can use the stock Honda harness as it was meant to run the engine, but the outputs is what is tough since you will have to verify what each wire does by looking at wiring diagrams for the Honda. From there, you can determine what you have to keep, and what you can discard. For that reason, I recommend custom wiring kits like from Rywire or minitec since they really simplify the setups and allows for easier integration. Not impossible to use the stock harness, but a lot more research is needed. Just be prepared either way and best of luck on your build!

@@aguilas583 Thanks a lot for your answer, it really helps !

Glad the videos helped! I wasn’t sure since they aren’t professional videos if they would do any good, but keep going with your car! Nothing is impossible with building cars I learned. It just takes a lot of time (and a little money of course). Thanks for watching!

It’s not cheap by any means. Thanks for watching and the comment!

Thanks for watching!

I am happy it’s helping! As long as it helps at least 1 person, my goal would have been met with the videos.

I'm doing one in Australia as well

I am glad it’s insightful for you! With how many hours of videos I watched leading up to my build, I figured sharing my experience was something I could do to help others. Thanks for watching!

I am in Colorado.

I live in socal and wanting help on my mini vtec build, I have the motor in the vehicle. Just need to do the wiring as my next stage.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Oops I forgot to add them lol. I will add them later on today. Thanks for the heads up!

links are in the description now.

Enjoy the 1275 as long as you can. I wish mine had that motor originally but I still enjoyed and tuned the heck out of my 998. They are fun cars and they work as long as you keep up with them. The vtec conversion comes with a lot of small headaches and teething issues so ensure you drive the heck out of your mini now!

Thank you!

Hopefully this can be another resource to help you out! It’s exciting stuff getting ready for a build but it can be overwhelming at first. One step at a time!

We started by looking at other production companies, and saw that color wash lights are the base of everything. Since most places we go to doesn’t allow haze, all of the slim pars make sense for us since it adds the most impact which without haze is the most effective light show. From there, it was just some derby lights, the moving heads, and a few smaller components which we use for weddings primarily, but they worked well with our rig.

@@aguilas583 I appreciate the advice. I'm a novice when it comes to the lighting

@@zeldaglitchgamer no worries. I still feel like a novice myself so asking questions and sharing knowledge is the best!

Thanks! It’s a lot of work but worth it to be somewhat competitive.

The haze works really well. If there is fire detection systems (beam detectors vs heat detectors), you can very easily set off the fire alarm. We rented a Radiance Ultratec hazer for a recent gig, and we set off the fire alarm due to the beam detectors coming back on. The school was at fault here since we coordinated this before hand, and we were approved to use haze in our contract. The biggest thing is to ensure the client allows it, and knows that they are liable to ensure that the haze wont interfere with any fire detection systems so you aren't on the hook for an evacuation.

The camera ISO setting was set wrong. That way my fault, but it wasn’t dark at all in person. The wedding was a unique wedding because the crowd wasn’t much into dancing. I basically started taking individual requests at that point. Thanks for the view and the comment.

Then maybe they shouldn't of booked a DJ if nobody was into dancing that's the hole idea and point of a party.

We provided sound for the ceremony, microphones, etc. Every wedding is different. This was by far one of the most mellow weddings we have done.

R&N Productions just ask the venue. They will either know, or figure out what kind of fire detection system they have to determine that.

djzaz_ official gracias!

Jose Hernandez I would consider the slim par 38’s. As many as you can afford to start. They are light, bright, and very effective when paired with even a simple DMX controller. For gigs you don’t use a truss, you can sell them as uplighting packages as well.

Sergio Salgado do i need a fkn controller for them do they have a slave optiin

Lol dmx controller sorry

Jose Hernandez you need a DMX controller to make good effects if you put them on a truss. If you don’t, you get to pick a solid color and that’s pretty much it. That’s why they work well for uplighting.

Sergio Salgado but any ideas on what I can use to put on my trust along with my kinta fxs

Manuel Cardenas it's like a Prox T-LS31m. If you google 10 foot truss, and search the cheaper options you will find many variations of it.

Abe Coulter it's EXTREMELY annoying. I will probably have to focus the camera manually. My main focus isn't filming so I always seem to forget.

Sergio Salgado haha..i know the feeping.. forgetting to do the simple little things for a gig vlog

Victor Briceno they are the Duratruss DT-PRO4000's.

DJ Tweek Dallas I am finding that those songs are getting lost in history more and more haha.

Billy Poo All time low by Jon Bellion

DjRickProduction I still need to update the equipment list. I put the gig log up way too fast and forgot to add that. Good catch though. If you go to the evergreen video that we did, it shows a similar equipment list. I will update it though. Thanks for watching and the comment!
