  • Thank you to Gran Turismo 7 for sponsoring todays episode! Gran Turismo 7, Rated E for Everyone, is out now for Playstation 4 and Playstation 5. The game is the latest installment in a franchise that many people consider the absolute pinnacle of automotive video games, and - no surprise- it’s been getting rave reviews from the press and fans alike. Get your copy and start playing today: bit.ly/3N0wrey
    We all want a big screen in the dash that tells us where we’re going, a backup camera, a smooth and efficient transmission, and absolutely everything computerized, optimized, and not difficult for us to manage. What if we told you all those features started life as cool new bells and whistles on Japanese production cars a long, long time ago? What if we told you nearly every part inside your Ford had its origins inside a Japanese car?
    HERE IN MY GARAGE…

      It was really hard to do some inventory management back when this system was absent in company because they said it was not necessary and pain in the ass doing it. But, when they saw another company who did that system was being successful and they said "It was nice to see it tidy and efficient, why we dont adopt it?". Once this happened, everyone will follow it with chain reaction with others and that was the magic of innovation that changed how it worked in our life.

      Yup, here's something even more interesting. What's known as the Toyota was is highly influenced by the American, Edward Demming. He pioneered these lean and efficient quality models. He tried taking these concepts to American companies and they all told him to pound sand. But, the Japanese manufacturers at the time, coming out of WW2, were eager to learn, especially Toyota. Thus began the lean, efficient, high quality Japanese products boom.

    4:18 You skipped some very important years from the history of auto manufacturing. The Training Within Industry used a "small-step work improvement" during WWII military equipment manufacturing instead of big steps that required more time to implement. When Homer Sarasohn went to Japan as part of the nuclear fallout reparations, he brought this management technique with him, which became known as kaizen. Kaizen originated as an Amercian management technique, not Japanese. It's just happened that this American was working in a Japanese factory, so the first factory to use it was in Japan.

      Like how Toyota had programs or something dedicated to rebuilding old toyotas to keep them running. I'm sure Datsun did the same and then Honda later on too. Their auto industry was molded by a need for reliable efficient cars. I remember seeing old footage of a Toyota fj40 going in for a full service and carb rebuild and greasing everything up before heading back out and alot of roads were still crappy and rough as hell. Probably also why Denso started to make so many high quality long lasting parts for cars. Like denso spark plugs reccomended to change every 100k but I've seen Hondas and toyotas with 150k on oem denso and they run fairly good and don't even look half bad for being way overdue

      At least Toyota still builds reliable machines today. I changed OEM coil packs on my GX470 at 220k miles, and ironically enough only did that due to a bad diagnosis. Come to find out all the coilpacks are just fine... Its pretty insane how well engineered they have been

First antilock brakes on production sedan(Jag and Mercedes had them earlier on sports cars): 1970 Chrysler Imperial, option lasted only one year because nobody bought them. First beehive (conical) valve springs: 1980 Chrysler 3.3 in minivans.

    The electro gyrocator is actually a form of what’s called an Inertial Navigation System, which when implemented properly is incredibly accurate. We use them on aircraft as a backup to GPS, and they use a combination of accelerometers, gyros, and rate gyros. At the beginning of your flight you simply put in your gps coordinates, which it won’t let you mess up because it can tell when you’re wrong, let it align for a few minutes, and then off you go. They also use them at sea in certain applications, but since weight isn’t as much of a concern they’re typically far larger and therefor more accurate, but also take significantly more time to align
