Ummm guys, what's the deal with the trash wobbly camerawork ?? 🤮
Jason Bourne fight scene camerawork went out of fashion 15yrs ago 🫤
I have a silver one of these you can have for free
You guys need "look mum no computer" to help you out :)
just a heads up but you may already know the little ps2 badge on the disk drive spins so its the right way on its side and stood up, give it a try i didnt know for 15 years 😂😂
Hi guys, i was one of the original builders of the fto, i was one who did the original iteration of the boot build what had sony subs, and was one done over 22 years ago
Aaaand up you go! We need to hear more of your stories! Hows Tina btw?! 😂
Don't read my name
How is tina doing?
I would never have admitted to that
@@samholdsworth420 it was a good job in the boot
Rip those DVDs and upload to Internet Archive. We can't let such a slice of early 00s car culture get lost into history.
The people need to know…. What did Tina do to the fto?
I don’t know - they censored it to avoid any potential demonetisation and shocking everyone
@@thebr0wnhornet She F'd the TO out of it
Honestly would be an awesome thing
“Rip” those DVD’s!!! Wow dude it’s been sooo long since I’ve read/heard that being said
Edwin: "These are the largest flames I've ever seen."
The TDC porsche 996: *my past is worse*
Don't read my name
Should have asked Taylor, he’s seen even bigger flames coming out his neighbors unit
My dad Richard built this car! And I LOVED it I got taken to the primary school disco in this bad boii and all the kids were jealous when I got out and the doors went up! Most popular I’ve ever been tbh 😂 this video made me so happy to see it again!
by any chance do you know who tina is
To the top… got to get a feature on the next video! 😂
@@bearwynn I was only like 7 so I’m gonna say thank fully no! but I do remember women in very short shorts 😅 all the FUEL women. Although this is probably the moment I ask my dad and he says yeah remember Tina she was (fill in blank) and it will haunt me 🤣
@@scottporter2513 me and my dad are having a laugh bringing up the memories of this car and it’s TWO siblings 👀
@@AshleaJasmine Two?! That’s a whole other video! Love it. So many memories from that era. 😊
You selling the dvds? ……… asking for a friend
Also would be interested in dvd…….. also for a friend
We must all have the same mutual friend then because I’m interested too
I'd have them too. Asking for myself. Really curious what was going on there.
/same for a friend of course
There's a seller on the bay of e who has a heap for sale for a fiver.
6:35 That small red button, the car shutting off, and the "eeeeeeeeeeeee" noise make me belive that button is for the flame kit. A lot of modern day flame kits just shut off the power to the engines coilpacks, and route it to the coil for the spark plug in the exhaust. If you want, try revving the car, and holding WOT, and pressing the button. If everything works, the injectors should still pulse fuel into the cylinders, the spark plug in the engine wont do anything, and the raw fuel+air will get ignited as it exits the exhaust.
Exactly as stated, had a “dragons breathe” flamer kit on my GSi back in the early 00’s and the button kills the coils for the engine and starts the coil for the exhaust. Rev the engine up, press and hold the button whilst keeping WOT and then release the button before the engine stalls 👍🏻
I can’t believe they ripped half the interior apart instead of just googling how flame kits work, or how to use them.
'Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast' is a 90's Red Dwarf quote! & why not have it on your FTSlow! 😂
Ace Rimmer! What a guy!
What a guy
What a guy!
What a guy!
Why not? you ask. Because it was never really funny and hasn't aged well.
You'll need to double check the serial number, but that might be a Automobile Snow White color PS2 SCPH-30000, which are like a grand. There were a limited number of PS2 consoles painted with automotive paint and that looks like it may be one of them
Nah , its normal silver one , I have the same one , mine is SCPH-50004
That would be too good to be true, I would also say it's just a normal silver one
It's still rare to see a silver
The white ones are from japan and only play and read discs from regions of Japan
@un-_-known688 not true. I own 2 ceramic white ps2s. The singstar ps2 bundle is how you got the white ps2 slim in north merica. Its worth about 224 for just the console :)
Today's young drivers have NO idea how cool the early 2000s modding scene was!
To be fair, as lads who grew up watching Fast and Furious and Pimp My Ride. we knew about it, saw a few modified cars out and about, but on the whole the general consensus between me and my mates was that they were all a bit naff.
I don’t any of the Max Power era cars have aged very well at all.
One of my favourite weekend activities as a 15 year old was hanging around bus stops in town with a Bacardi Breezer watching the endless laps the local modified cars used to do. Novas, Fiestas, Saxos, Astra GTEs... Never understood why my mates wanted to chase girls instead. Weirdos.
@@LongLiveHelghastI didn't like the max power era at all either. Good riddance.
It sure beats all the pops-and-bangs Fiesta ST "builds" you see on the roads now
@LongLiveHelghast you're not wrong they haven't aged well at all but it was very fun at the time...
I have a soft spot for these kind of cars. The craftsmanship and the creativity that were put into these is unlike pretty much anything you see today. Bonus points for having labeled everything behind the rear seats
A good idea would be to sell those DVDs on the TDC shop
And use most of the profit to pay for the partial restoration
Signed by Tina and the crew.
Don't read my name
@@beesleyben put a wig on Will and call her Tina from now on lol
If the DVDs are age restricted they'll need a licence.
The Max Power era was something to behold.
Also that DVD must have been terrible, shocking, depraved stuff...are you planning on selling those copies?
That car stinks like 2002 Pimp my Ride era
I love it
Don't read my name
too bad a lot of the show was faked
i used to love xhibit back then
probably stinks of a lot more given the dvd's
@@thetinman-1it wasn’t “faked”, they just didn’t actually repair the cars lol
😂😂😂
The dvd section... "Then things changed when tina appeared" ... Queue youtube ad featuring Tina Fey.
Oh the timing. 😂😂😂😂
I was hoping someone mentioned that🤣. Definitely not a coincidence
What t shirt do I need to buy to get a copy of the dvd thrown in? For the modified cars, of course.
lucky it wasn't a manual.. i'd hate to know where that gear stick's been 🤣
Oh I missed that auto bit.. But yeah Tina riding the gear stick like galloping on horse... Sticky Tina lol
The pink fto hasn't had tax or MOT since end of 2009
And it hasnt had a new owner since 2007
RIP
Don't read my name
its long gone then 😢
Not necessarily... the Max Power 106 I rebuilt in 2021 hadn't had an MOT since 2005, so it didn't show up on the online database 😅
You guys should give away a DVD with each shirt purchase, some type of special edition shirt with FTO graphics. Would be a really cool gag type gift.
Not sure you can give away DVD's like that to random people 😆
The DVD segment was hilarious
Don't read my name
Oh my god, this car is a relic of the mid 2000's, it's glorious. You guys should 100% restore it as at least a show car...and rip that DVD to internet archive!
I love that you guys are giving the Max Power era the attention it deserves. Just as important a period in car modding as any other, some of these builds were MENTAL.
Thanks lads!
Boys I think this is your cue to make a TDC patreon with extended cuts! Cannot get enough of the content and so glad you lads are running your own ship now. RIP CarThrottle
*cue
@@elemar5edited, thank you
This needs to be fully restored to its 2000s glory
Put a decent engine in it. I don't understand how the current nos will affect the stock block?!
@@geoffwatches 🤦🤣🤣🤣
I’m a little older than you two but am still of the Max Power generation. For me this is the best car you have bought yet, please get it back to its former glory. 👍
18:22 the subtlety of this bit is just hilarious 😂
I’m dumb, whats the joke?
@@valen961 There's a sticker of the Car Throttle logo on Edwin's PS2, after the cut its replaced with a TDC sticker
I could tell you so many stories about that car including how to work the flamer kit. I know because I built it
Scrolled through so many comments to find you dad 😂
@@AshleaJasmine yeah the comments have been many and funny! Bet they’re all jealous because I was there when that video was made 😅
@@thecre8ors 🙉🙉 La La La La La hahaha
@@AshleaJasmine Bahahahahaha. Dad better pay for therapy if this DVD gets out.
Could you tell us who Tina is?? Asking for a friend
"Smoke me a kipper......" is a quote from RED DWARF (BBC TV show) circa 1993
Ace Rimmers old car. Was waiting for a Red Dwarf comment......
Stoke me a clipper, I'll be back for Christmas
Bit sad they didn’t recognise it. I’d say it makes me feel old, but I’m the same age as these guys on average…
@@ryandavies3070it makes me feel old, because I was a teenager when that came out and I'm definitely older than Will and Edwin.
I remember this car back in the mid 2000s, I owned an FTO myself and remember most people in the owners club absolutely hated this thing, hats off to the original owner for trying something different, must have cost an absolute fortune back then as modifying them was either figure it out yourself using parts for other cars or import parts from Japan and incur huge shipping costs
those NOS bottles cost 600 USD alone, this is such a legendary RICE machine, i love it
It's cool what you can do with addressable LEDs today but there is something about the neon glow you just can't beat.
Max power, nuts magazine and channel 5 after midnight. I miss the 2000s. Love the channel TDC ❤️
Shooting stars, bottom, euro trash. The times we had. I don't think I ever bought Max Power...but I did buy Fast Car and Revs. Revs was my favourite.
Oh my god. Lee Martins Saxo!! That brings back HUGE memories!!!
That car is simply iconic and like you said for guys our age (I’m 39) max power is THE car generation!!
Cannot wait to see more of this!!
"Smoke me a kipper ill be back for breakfast" is a quote from Red Dwarf
What a guy.
@@Falney we're lucky to be alive.
Smeg heads......
Smeg heads or as Kryton once tried to say "Smeeeg-heead" @@Craig-wp3pz
“Whatever that quote is.”
What a Smooo Heeeee!
My mum and stepdad used to have a red FTO when I was younger. It was the V6 with Mivec and it went pretty well at the time. 197bhp wasn't bad back then. Always had a soft spot for them.
I love TINA!!! Tina to get it on with the FTO Reunion and you'll get to 10 million subscribers!!!
My silver PS2 still gets used to this day - bought new in 2003, amazing bit of kit! Remember this car from back in the day 😎
The best part for me was the last 15 seconds of the video.
I've worked on and build a fair share of ICE and Hi-Fi systems in the past. So it was really satisfying to see the screens in working order.
Looking forvard to more content with your FTO
10:56 - Loving the Red Dwarf sticker at the back next the exhaust flames. Admiral Ace Rimmer would be proud.
Good video - Keep up the good work, full respect from the North East
Bring back this era of the UK car scene!
The throwback to 16 year old me playing NFS2 for hours on end and thinking the corsa with one of those limited edition automotive PS2’s in the glovebox owned by my pal’s big brother was achingly cool is strong. So strong.
2:38 smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfast Is a red dwarf reference! Pffft are you even British boys? ☺️
Best .. Car.. Ever.. straight out of underground 2. Just love the 2000s vibes that it gives off
You gotta sell those DVDs as merch.
After mentioning wanting to see max power cars to you at shedfest I'm so happy to see you've done it! Great job.
Now this is what the people want to see! Super fun stuff lads. You have to sell those DVDs as merch, hahaha.
The boot reveal, I was just expecting to see tina's lifeless corpse.
Weirdly this is probably the most excited I've been for any of the cars you boys have worked on to date! It is just so ridiculous! And Cool!
My high school English teacher imported one of these and drove it to school every day and I thought she was the coolest woman in the world for that. Gran Turismo 2 Taeivon Trampio feelings.
Please please please please restore this beauty to its former glory, the sexspec/max power era needs to return
Riders on the storm. :D
This will be a killer on the road🤣
Definitely not a purge valve he pointed at under the hood lol. Its fuel and nitrous (wet shot). The purge will be before it joins fuel on the nitrous line.
I love how Rory came running when it got "much worse"
Seeing edwin pulling out Midnight Club 3 just made me very happy this is probably the best racing game in history
9:40 Tom is an absolute LAD :D
This guy took "Pimp my Ride" to a whole new level!
18:33 JUICED MENTIONED!!!!
Honestly i genuinely think you owe it to that era and everything it brought us to restore that fto to its full show spec glory and keep it forever!
Also, that max power dvd needs to be on the internet, im pretty sure i don't want to see whats happening but at the same time i kind of have to know 😂
22:35 tbh, I'd watch that
Best video yet! I had a GTO back in the day, fond memories of these kinds of cars.
I remember so many Max Power magazines and even a "how to" book for modifying your car back when I was a wee lad 🤣 I used to think that having massive exhausts (or multiple of them) was the coolest thing ever.
I’ve still got that book Haynes Modified🙈 got the Fiesta one aswell 👌🏻🤣
The funniest thing about max power to me is that probably 90% of the cars didn't have a single power upgrade. I don't count nitrous because it was more of a show modification than anything else.
My cousin had max power rover 25 or mg zr near the end of this era, it was a matte grey/green colour with lambo doors/hydraulics and the 100% necessary sound system.
When you Google mg zr max power there's a picture of one with about 8 exhausts, this isn't the car but it was a similar colour but greener and had a single front light on each side instead of duals.
love the hidden bottle in the top left xD 12:18
If anything, I would at least send it out to get polished/cleaned up as best as it can. For the most part the interior doesn’t seem to be too terrible either, but the whole car needs to be disinfected. As a precaution.
Color-matching would be infeasible in so many different ways, but maybe new door handles?
I rarely see any Mitsubishi cars on UK roads anymore!
♦️
You guys need to link up with the Max Power Reunion lot!
They're finding and restoring these beautiful show cars. ❤
I love where this channel is going. Mightycarmods but less commercial. Keep it up ❤
Ya they didn't shove a nine grand haltech ECU into a car bought on marketplace.
“Smoke me a kipper…..” I heard that quote on Red Dwarf (favorite British comedy)
Asking for a friend, where can I obtain a digital copy of that DVD you were ewing and ahing over? Again, for a friend
This is so sick. Love the old modified cars 💯 Hopefully I’ll be buying cars like this on my channel soon 🙌
where can we buy a copy of the DVD ?
Can you PLS rip those DVDs to the Internet Archive or something? Those are hilarious.
(Or if I can get a copy of each, I’ll do it).
I know it's a long shot, but you should do a proper Juiced tribute to this car (yes, I said juiced because this car was actually in the game, ulike nfs or midnight club).
What I mean by tribute. A proper tuneup (a cheap ebay turbo or SC), nos, the works. You already got the Nos, and the "proper" cosmetic modifications in place.
9:04 the moment where the boys realised it was a mistake to push all those buttons
Welcome to We Buy Any Car
Seems like There was a lot of quality work, craftsmanship, dedication and money that went into that hideous car back in the day
"But that all quickly changed with the arrival of Tina" - up pops the advert with Tina Fey in it.
Not the Tina I was expecting 😂
This is so much better than dull modern stance cars... This was decades ago, i don't see nothing ridiculous, it's time for 00s car culture to become a classic.. It was the coolest and a peak time for car culture around the world
Ah Max Power S3X Spec! Mighty Car mods did some good content on buying these. You need two and a series of challenges.
I'm just a bit younger than you guys and the only thing I know these kinds of cars from are the old f&f movies. I'm so sad I missed out on those days, so it's awesome to see you get exited about it
Love the Red Dwarf Reference
I used to have a flame kit back in the 2000’s and as far as I remember it didn’t have external gas or anything like that, you just cut the power from engine coils and instead turn on the exhaust coil, the air-fuel mixture was ignited on the exhaust and kaboom you had flames
Which would explain why it didn't start when the control box was unplugged.
Dvd giveaway maybe???
Upsetting that they don't recognise that iconic Ace Rimmer quote! What a guy!
Nice to see TDC upload again
I Had a 1995 FTO GPX "back in the day". Engine was awesome (unless you needed to change the back 3 plugs) but the auto box was *awful*. Handled well though. And sounded great.
Can we buy these dvds? Asking for a mate
That red dwarf quote, chefs kiss.
Good damn this car reminds me so much of need for speed underground 2, especially the trunk. I absolutely love it :D
Maaan i loved Max Power builds, used to read the mag in the mid 90s. Cracking video, the FTO deserves all the love you can give her
8:38 That 300zx was featured on top gear, s03e07, in the top gear boffin burnout if anyone remembers
soooo where can i buy that DVD ? Asking for me... i mean a friend :)
These a such a fun little car when they're not rusted through and full of electronics and wiring they don't need (at least, not for the show business). It's sad that I knew the engine was untouched just from the startup xD. This is such a childhood hit from the early 2000s, and games like Juiced (The OG one anyway) really helped with keeping these things cool. I own one now a GPX COTY, it's mint. Very cool to see this one
Get it running and nurburghring it
The final resting place of my second FTO. Engine was toast after 12 laps.
With Tina as passenger 😂
I’ve owned over 50 cars and the FTO was by far my favourite. Mine was a limited edition and mapped. V6 Mivec was a beast (until it blew up). 😂
The red dwarf quote on the back 😂😂😂
Drove past you guys yesterday near Stonehenge. Saw vents on a blue zafira and just knew. Then followed the little red Honda
I need to see that DVD!
Unreal nostalgia in this one. Please do get everything working and trailer it to shows like you suggest at the end!! Really looking forward to seeing all of the cool features come back to life!
I genuinely want one of those DVDs for a collection could I have one please????😍
