Find out more about the Veloster N, with its N 6-Speed Manual and 8-Speed Wet Dual-Clutch Transmission (the N DCT).
This week on Money Pit, we’re replacing the stock rubber differential bushings with a set of much stiffer polyurethane bushings. They should make the rear of the car feel much tighter when launching and shifting, but will they be worth the added noise vibration and harshness?
We have a new channel!

Zach is really doing every single thing he can do before putting in a turbo 😂😂
because turbos are very expensive, and your car needs to be able to handle the power.
Give us the friggin acid snail!!!!
Supporting mod prep so he can go for MO POWAH BABEH
No point fitting the turbo to a car that handles like a 20 year old jelly.
"are engine swaps worth it?"
Us waiting on the turbo video
Zach: "Are all season floor mats worth it?
Yes, yes they are. Especially the Weather Tech ones 😂
Definately worth it
@@christiancomputing8771 sitting in my car at the parking lot at work looking at mine thinking “Damn. These things sure have kept a lot of these Wisconsin winter road salt out of my carpet.”

I absolutely love Hyundai's ad campaign for the Veloster N. Partnering with content creators like Donut Media, Engineering Explained, Throttle House, TheStraightPipes, and others that people in their target audience ACTUALLY WATCH AND CONSUME and can actually afford it. What a great team and effort between Hyundai and all of the creators.
Every other TH-camr: "We are sponsored by XY. Suck it or leave it."
Donut: "WE EDUCATE YOU EVEN WITH OUR FREAKING SPONSORING ADS!!!"
The most hype sponsor intro I will ever need to see. Rad.
But what was the song used?
I really want a Veloster N honestly 😂, I have a Focus ST and I’m kinda interested in the double clutch
The question is did the use a smoke machine or let Pumphrey hotbox the garage
@@stephendetky4653 I have a Veloster Turbo and it already feels like a great improvement to the Fiesta ST, I own a manual though. It feels better looking, more unique, compact, faster, hot-hatchier. Can only imagine how much better an N would feel like, tbh
Nah dude James pouring Valvoline oil was the besy
Fans: Is this going to be long-awaited turbo episode?
Zach: "Are Aftermarket Dipsticks Worth It?"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
OMG LMAO
“Are JDM Oil-caps Worth It?
@@hec_3549 "are JDM valve covers worth it?"
@@liamflynn6929 nah mate, “Are Valve Caps Even Worth It” 😂
Everyone hating on the fact that it isn’t the turbo episode, but he’s about to get millions of views on a video where he replaces diff bushings...
Also, no point in making a ton of power if you can’t put it to the ground properly. If you have to cut back the power way before a turn because your suspension is shit and body roll kills you, then no point in having a moment of a little power on a straight. Most track races are lost in the turns, not in the straights..hence why the Lotus Exige is such a wicked capable track car.
Just rewatching this, and I still think this is one of the best car commercials ever
Everyone: Okay, surely next video is going to be the turbo upgrade
Zach: "Is new badging worth it?"
what about valve stem caps?

Before the turbo upgrade: “Is buying a new Miata worth it?”
This would definitely be AFTER you put a turbo as you tell yourself why am I even doing this?
I bought one! 10/10 would do again
"guys i wrecked the miata"
He's gonna end up getting a Mazdaspeed Miatia before turboin this one
*before the turbo upgrade: "is stealing a turbo worth it"
thanks zach, watching this video this morning finally motivated me to install the poly diff bushings i’ve had waiting for my miata, as well as an lsd while i was there
how do the bushings feel? gonna put mine on this week
I've literally never seen a better ad. Thank you for the effort, I uber appreciate it.
Is it just me or is this the most interesting show on Donut.
Nah the one where he put a turbo on the Miatia was the best.......
Science Garage was the most awesomest but now money pit and B2B is the best
easily
Honestly it's the only reason i watch donut
Indeed it is, I wish they did it more like like a real show, but it nice. Yep
I’m literally liking this because of James’s intro. That was the best Hyundai add ever.
Almost made me want to run out and buy a Hyundai Veloster N...then I remembered, I effing hate the Veloster....

Really liking how the Money Pit is coming together. I just started the series today and just got caught up. Now I'm online looking for another project car for myself (because of course I need another one). Can't wait to see how things come along this week.
I genuinely love the Volester N ad's y'all're cooking up... they really did give you guys as much creative freedom as possible, didn't they?
You guys really struck gold with this show. The host, the editing, the pacing, even the music selection is on point 👌
If only they'd put the music they used in the description so we could enjoy it!
I concur
Use shazzam? Not hard
@@011mpsguy how am I supposed to use shazam while watching this video at the same time? Also, instead of writing that if it's not hard why wouldnt you just link the name of the song?

Do miatas have piston return springs?
Is buying and upgrading a Miata worth it?
@@coldmoonlight6361 no, if u are crazy as zach, deffinitely no, just dont

@@sebastianherpst449 yes, also muffler bearings

Thanks for the chill, informative video. There was no BS that had to be skipped.
That was probably the best sponsor spot I have ever seen, I'll probably watch it at least 2 more times.
"Nut in the back"

Nice you tried to rephrase the comment you copied which is the top comment rn haha! Coincidence? I think not!
This is the best build series you guys have, please keep it going. Next try new cloth top or hard top (fiberglas or carbon)
Love this series boys, i have an m2 so its not quite the same stuff but its all relevant nonetheless and i like hearing the subjective feedback on mods rather than always hearing stuff like laptimes and all👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Next episode - "Are aftermarket door handles worth it?"
Zach- "These doors feel way stiffer"
The donut guys are better at adverts than multi billion dollar companies
Good reason for that. The donut guys aren't part of a multi-billion dollar company..... Small media groups usually do better with advertisements than large corporations because they haven't lost touch with reality....or consumers. They know how to get their audience's attention in a positive way.
I miss Honda doing their insane ads, what happened to the power of their dreams?
Small media groups generally have the freedom to appeal to a much smaller audience and one they have cultivated and are already fans. Big companies have to appeal to a much broader audience. I’m sure if this ad were to play on cable tv people who weren’t donut fans might not like it as much
@@adamozmin8970 Eh, companies learned that targeting broad demographics is generally a fail, hence why even on TH-cam, most of money is in targeted advertisement... there's little point advertising used Lamborghini dealership on a cooking channel, so when I watch those I get annoying menstrual pads ads instead lmao. Also, companies DO try to do ads in this quirky style, but they end up with "fellow kids" syndrome (except for Old Spice or Axe ads, those were ridiculous in a good way) so generally, it's reserved for brands "casual" social media pages.
The have 6million subs and over 1mil view avg... They are worth more than $100mil at this stage.
The creativity in your ads is very consistent. Great work.
Greetings from Mexico Zach, big fan of Money Pit ! Donut Media it's my favorite channel to learn about cars, even though I just own a 2000 focus, it helped me to understand the basics and maybe some day begin with a project car like you. I can't wait to see the Miata getting that sweet turbo !
Btw I just loved the sponsorship video for the Hyundai 😂 Hope you read this one !
One of these episodes he needs to come in with “Are Air fresheners worth it?” And then about two minutes into the episode he gets bored and just starts turbo’ing the car
if the video doesnt start this way I'll be sad
I love this idea. Call the episode "are air fresheners worth it?" and use an air freshener thumbnail. 1 minute through explaining the purpose of air fresheners he simply says "So are they worth it? Yes, but not in a convertible. So we're gonna put a turbo in instead"
ngl that was the coolest ad ever
however id still get the stick shift one lol
Awesome video! Nice before and after. Love that Polyurethane 🤩
Loved the driving graphics in the add👌
That ngrin shifting is so cute, even has a little cool down timer. I love how much fun the software engineers were allowed to have with that.
Don't want to void that warranty 😂
It actually look like nitro reloading in video games 😂
GodzillaI I’m fighting off tuning my Veloster N ... the car shoulda shipped from the factory with at least 25 more
Hrrssspowers. I don’t wanna void the warranty but I want more straight line speed. In corners the car is no joke tho
“Some cars gain noise from dif mounts but i can tell a difference at all”
He says is a convertible miata that he only drives with the roof down
Legendary Hyundai ad you guys, that was amazing.
That sponsor is the best that i have ever seen it makes buying the Veloster N seem like the most important you will ever do
That hyundai ad, is next level!
so frickin awesome
The car sounds pretty nasty too
Since the motors for the hilow cars are toast, what if the next video was “professionally done full engine rebuild vs. DIY engine rebuild” that’d be pretty sick
This would be such a good episode
Naaaah, both cars need an engine swap, f*ck the VQ! 🤣🤣
@Ali Mohammed Dib wait fr?
@Ali Mohammed Dib you just made my brain release serotonin and dopamine or whatever
Don't worry this will be the episode after the turbo install 🤣🤣
Not going to lie...that sponsorship spot was the best I've ever seen!! It was fun, informative, and short. Keep up the great work Donut!!
Lova Ya guys, best ads on whole YT eva!
Best content is obvious.
Never seen such an insane sponsor ad in my lifetime, and I hope it'll always stay like that.
Who else randomly found Donut Media one day, and has been a fan ever since?!
Not going to lie, I subbed thinking this was part of the Donut Garage 🤣
Such a happy accident!
Literally everyone dude. Nobody is purposefully finding donut. Everyone finds the TH-cam channels they watch accidentally. That’s just how it works.
thats joe you find any channel
They inspired me to fix my wife's mk4 jetta wagon, put Raceland Coilovers on it, by myself with only a few minor to major hang ups XD
Well, I randomly stumbled upon a video about Car trends that need to die from donut media.
After that , I have always been watching Donut Media.
Also check out one of my videos from another acc: th-cam.com/video/QzhZ2E2FBQE/w-d-xo.html
Might've been the first time I enjoyed an ad- Good on you guys and Hyundai :P
I’m sorry but whatever you’re paying the editors isn’t enough because they do such a great job on every episode, from cutways to editing to borderline whole animations for every episode and the effort is appreciated
“Is losing weight to make my car go faster worth it?”
Is starving worth it?
Totally.
Depends on how not optimised is your weight
Yes, especially on lower horsepower cars.
@@bookle5829 Starving is double-worth it! You reduce weights and save money for mods!
I love that you guys upload Money Pit right when my lunch break starts. Now that I've caught up I"ll watch it at lunch every Wednesday.
Just did poly bushings all the way around on my NC. Worth every penny and second of time spent doing it.
Good lord, give these editors a raise! Each show gets better and that Veloster Ad was absolutely insane
Bro he really gonna be telling us how to install hubcaps before installing a turbo
hubcaps are kinda tricky tho
@@Donut mmhmm... then you gonna tell us that security lugnuts are after that? =D
that Hyundai ad was the best ad for anything I've ever seen on a youtube video
Nice, doing the polyurethane motor, transmission, and diff bushings on my car was one of the better more subtle mods I've made. Good to see it shown here
Nice upgrade!! Its good seeing you cruze tru Inglewood 👍
I love how Zack's beard grows between test runs... haha
Yesterday I was watching one old Ecs Tuning video on how to install the turbo inlet on my Gti, and for my suprise Zack was there, younger, shorter hair, a lot more serious but full of skills as usual. Congrats, man, keep up!
editing just keeps getting better and better
I did the polys when I did my 3.9 swap created a horible harmonics vibration over 65. I changed to mazda performance bushings now good as gold. I have the polys still if anybody wants them can have them. now the full poly suspension bushings are totally worth doing I love the way the feel in the corners
Zach's hair gets more and more beautiful each episode.
Magnum Swerve
He gets more and more beautiful with each episode
I’d be gay for jobe
I had a 1993 Saturn SL2 and put polyurethane bushings everywhere in that car, the suspension was awesome handleing with a lowering kit, but the motor mounts definitely made the interior shake.... definitely was worth it in my 5spd SL2
The sponsor segment is so freaking good i dont wanna skip and the way its edited really makes me wanna buy the car
"Time to get stiiiffff" 😂
And tight in the rear 🤣
DAT CGI 😂 i can see where all that Veloster money was spent
They even make the promo look cool🔥🔥🔥luv your videos ❤
Love Zach as always! However that was the best add EVER
Next video is gonna be
“Is adding air to your tires worth it?” 😂👏🏽 can’t wait. Excited for the turbo video tho.
I thought we had gotten to the point of skateboard mods 😂😅😅
We gotta slam and stance that popsicle babayy
I kept away from watching Donut videos this past week, just so that I can enjoy them fully during the weekend. Love you guys - especially Money Pit. Hope the car gets to be absolutely aggressive after this.
Smart idea to compare the bushings on skateboards. That was a brilliant idea ‼️
Wednesdays are now my favorite day because of money pit
I swear y'all spend all of the sponsorship money editing the sponsorship segments. 😂
Lol
I need to do this, to go along with my Mazda performance rubber engine mounts.
Also: be sure to measure and align the PPF whenever you unbolt and bolt it back together. With a straightedge held across the frame rails, you want 60-75mm clearance up to the bottom of the PPF. The bolt holes in the back end of the gearbox are slotted to allow for the adjustment.
The editing for the Hyundai Veloster though.. Really sick asf!
Donut: Are poly bushes with it ?
Me: Well, I sure hope so otherwise I have spent a lot of unnecessary money on a late night eBay adventure
They are, the only downside is you get more vibrations if you’re sitting still while in drive (Really only applies to people who don’t have manuals ;-;)
@@Sweedster there's also the downside of more stress to the car itself. On a sloppy shift or when the tires hook up too hard, the rubber bushing will help absorb the shock. The poly ones don't absorb as much so you could be putting extra stress on the diff. Also, you can cause metal fatigue to the car from the harshness over a long time.
Hyundai really be like "is downshifting a feature"
5:05 Taking safety advice from Zach after the cheap rollcage drop test does seem wise. Love you Z 😋
That Veloster add sequence is world class!
3:57 Zach’s starting to look like Ron Burgundy 😂
Porn Stache to the Ready!
nahh justin Trudeau
It’s pretty cool to see Zach working out of what I assume is his personal garage, but I can’t wait to see the day Donut has its own shop!
It’s California so that’s probably a 2 million dollar garage and probably lots of people live there
That has the be the greatest ad I’ve ever seen 🔥
the editing for the ad is really top notch
My brain didn’t even register that was Zach when he only had his mustache and no hat 😂😂

I had to rewind it...total 70s porn stash. I love it.
Netflix: You still watching?
Someone’s daughter: 8:35
Pro tip: with SOME original bushings you can stiffen them up by squeezing in rubber fuel hose into the gaps within the bushing. Kind of a halfway step instead of going with poly. This usually works on motor mounts and diff mounts.
3/4 step is a sand/epoxy mix.
Worked great in some (already) heavy duty rubber motor mounts that were still a touch soft, causing shifting issues, but poly rattled your teeth out.
Makes sense but also this is the exact opposite of a pro tip, this is a tip for people with 7 dollars to their name and no professional licensing
@@dondiegorains3429 My bad. Let's call it a just-for-fun-tip.
