The body filler begins! Sky-gea build: Part 4

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 มิ.ย. 2024
- In this video we finish up the welding by completing the second fender and then we make a start on the body filler. This stage is one of the most difficult parts of the build as I need to get both fenders identical and fitting perfectly before I can make my moulds.
I'm going to try and get this stage of the video done as quickly as possible to not bore you all with weeks of sanding.
Also I've been putting much less background music in these latest episodes, let me know if you are enjoying this new format or if there are any changes you would like me to make.
Enjoy the video.

Thank you so much to everyone for the amazing feedback on this video. I've been blown away by how much everyone is enjoying this new build series! I always try to respond to everyone's questions in these comments sections and I'd just like to remind everybody to turn on the video subtitles as a lot of the time these will answer your questions! Thank you!
A quick reminder to hopefully address some common questions I've been getting:
- These fenders are only intended to be used as plugs for mould making, the final fenders fitted to this car will be made entirely out of fiberglass. This is why I didn't weld the panel fully and why I have been adding so much reinforcement to the inside to keep the shape solid. Not to mention the body filler that is over 10mm thick in some spots. I may be rough but I'm not that rough haha.
- Both the front and rear of this car will be fitted with over fenders. This is because the GTR front is significantly wider than the Stagea and so the rear must be widened to match. A bolt on widebody is the cheapest and easiest way to do that and so I opted for that method for anybody interested in buying this kit once it is available for sale.
- I specialize in composite bodywork and so with a lot of my builds you will see me focus on just the exterior of my vehicles. To be honest, this is just what I prefer doing. There are some amazing channels here on TH-cam that do builds that I could never even hope to hold a candle to. But what I enjoy the most about working on cars is the design aspect. I want to get my hands on as many different vehicles as possible and if I were to do full builds on all of them each build would take well over a year to complete.
I have many many more builds planned for this channel on a wide range of different styles, I hope you will all stick around!
Thank you all again so much for being the most awesome subscribers I could have asked for.
I love what you do and your philosophy around what you enjoy is really insightful. I think it's awesome you can turn out the work that you do and have variety by focussing on what's important to you. I was really inspired by the Miata build (I'm now building a hardtop for my Vitara 😅) and look forward to seeing more of the Sta-GTR.
Keep it coming, you're an inspiration 👍
切ったり貼ったりがワイルドなのに、仕上がりがめっちゃ綺麗なのが好きwww

REGARDS
Can't wait to see your plans for the back half of the car
Mericals Can Happen🤣Although I have seen one with a "double duck bill" spoiler that look kinda cool🤔
Personally, I don't care about the subtitles, I just like to watch the work.
same
Cheers bud. I always try and answer all the questions I get in the comments, but a lot of the time it's just repeating stuff I've already gone over in the subs. I'm trying to make sure people realize that there are in fact subtitles on these videos haha.
@@TofuAutoWorks I get it. But thanks to your editing style, I'm perfectly content to just watch along as you visually demonstrate all the steps you are going thru.
@@michaelbradley7529 I'm glad to hear it! That's exactly what I'm aiming for. Thanks for watching bro 🤙
@@TofuAutoWorks keep up the amazing work your doing, can't wait for the next one :D
I like this guy as a youtuber and make me enjoying his content, not to much talking like other youtuber and just stay on what his working.
Plus no sponsor ads from raid shadow legends, nord VPN, or manscaped!
@@LobbyDaLobster They've been trying haha. I find it funny how many companies reach out to me asking me to advertise their product when clearly they havent watched a single video on this channel and don't know that I don't speak.
I'm really enjoying the fact that you're doing this to a wagon!
It's not a car it's a rolling piece of art
When I work on my car I’m constantly listening to an audiobook, music, something. Yet, I could watch hours of your videos, perfectly content with the ambient sounds of the environment. Life it strange.
i love the little ''Worlds fastest indian'' reference above your shelf😃
Gonna be sweet. Saw another cool wagon build 2001 M3, Think it's the E46. Same idea as the fenders, rear arches, mirrors and back bumper had to be modified. Very OEM+ styling with M3 engine and manual trans. So clean. Who doesn't love a clean wagon with some guts to roast the tires.
Absolutely fantastic work bro... I was thinking of not doing a wide body to my 87 Celica GtFour but you have inspired me to bite the bullet and do it
I have so much respect for body work guys such as yourself.
I throughly enjoy your style of video/editing you have chosen very therapeutic to watch you you do body work 🤙🏽
Hello from Russia! Your projects are incredibly cool! I wish you strength and success!
согласен полностью, вопрос только сколько эти крылья весить будут...столько стеклопластика плюс шпакля, да и сами они алюминиевые
@@_elChapo тоже согласен, но думаю здесь речь в первую очередь идёт об эстетике и в целом внешнем виде, а тех. характеристики уходят на второй план
@@_elChapo If I'm right, that fender is for mold. If he make mold with that fender, then he will remake whole fender with fiber.
@@Oixmq That's exactly what I mean, if he does that, it's the best solution, otherwise the wings will just weigh unrealistically much...
In the immortal words of Jimmy DiResta "If it looks straight, it is straight". And hey, you can always be a quality body man 😹
動画まってたぞブラザー！次も楽しみにしとるぞ
Love seeing the dogs in the shop
I actually saw one of these for the first time ever today in the UK !
There's not a single channel I look forward to uploads more than yours, YT did me dirty. 22 hours? come on now :(
Keep up the great work!
すげぇ技術や
I want one of those patented sanding blocks with a signature please, so I can resell it in 20 years when you are famous :D
You've only gone and done it again you madlad.
Accidentally stumbled upon this channel and I couldn't be happier. Really enjoying your process. Keep it up mate! 🍻
Really wish you could post maybe twice a week :)
I wish I could too but each video takes over a week of work and several days to edit. I'm barely able to put these up twice a month.
Такое внимание к мелочам поражает. Отличная работа! Жду финал этого проекта) 🤝
This is wonderful asmr content for an expat former boatbuilder jdm petrolhead like myself! Keep up the good work😉
sandpaper Scraatch sound with Chillin music........dude u know how to enjoy Life.
A Good project Indeed, lookin forward for the end result.
gotta love watching this in class amazing work as always!
Appreciate the support! Just make sure not to fail any of those classes.
Awesome work. Still watching but always look forward to the next video.
お疲れ様です！
今日も最高な動画ありがとう！
I think the hard work you do is amazing, but your real talent is envisioning how the car should look.
Speaking as a baker; I wish I could just sand down the icing to smooth it out!
Great build, love the process!
I really hope you get molds made of those fenders in case they're ever damaged. You've put so much work into them!
So cool to watch how you work mann 👍👍 you have patients with your jobs #watching from suriname 🇸🇷🇸🇷
🇳🇴 great work. I like the way you show that it is just not a simple task to make custom fenders,i guess we do all forget about how much work is put into å build. Looks so easy and quick on a video
Always learn stuff when watching you work. Looking forward to seeing this take shape!
Curious at first but can't wait to see what's next.
i cant imagine building one of these fenders once let alone twice
my bless from Spain amazing job!! keep it up!
Omg this guy is building my dream car .
These videos are so satisfying to watch :)
Really nice job glued to your channel now. 👌
I love watching your process! You use such interesting techniques. So glad to see a new vid!
Love the videos, very relaxing to watch and and a great way to unwind
It’s awesome to see you put 2 fenders together!!! Can’t wait to see the end results!!! Keep it up brotha 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
your YT career will be just fine!
Huge progres!👏
Really enjoying this build👍
Love the fact so many people have such low expectations given the dodgy TH-cam builds that are out they can't believe that some one is looking at doing it properly.
Extraordinary work, mate. Exceptional.
I must be weird or something but this is very therapeutic.
Another fantastic video!
Fabulous job! Keep going!
Great work as always dude! 😉
Amazing work!! 😍
Impressive work!
Coming along nicely
Awesome! Keep up the good work!
Nice work dude! Coming along nicely
Stumbled across this and couldn’t stop watching. Nice work looking forward to the next video and I really dig the wagon get idea never even crossed my mind and seeing the rendering so far it’s looking spot on great job so far u got my sub
Keep it up, man! Always entertaining! 🤘
Cheers mate!
Really really impressive 🤩👍
Мужик ты очень хорош. Жду продолжения! И да кстати, я верю что, ты сделаешь расширение на задних арках.
Yes Finally new episode...
Love your Video bud
Salam from Indonesia 🇲🇨
Awesome great work ethic ✌🏻🏴
Love the content dude. Just wish it was more regular!! 🤪😎
Good stuff my man...
Interesting sanding block 😂 should definitely look into getting a set of dura-blocks you won’t regret them 👌🏻
When this one wears out I'll upgrade, but as long as it's still flat it works fine for me. 😆
So nice!
This is what I call amazing.
Cool work bro 👍
I'm looking forward to the sequel
I love these videos you do some awesome work bud
Nice project. following from Brazil👍🏻
Your ability to edit out all the swearing and anger is masterful.
Excelente trabajo 👍
Bro absolutely love your content
You guys are the best!
this is art
Amazing chanel, good job man !
Hell yeah! I would love to do the same to my NM35.
Yeah another update!😁
You should really look into getting a finger file sander, incredible for getting in tight places for body work. Keep up the great progress!
Dude handles the grinder like a handle a pencil. wow
This is going to look awesome when done, I take it that these parts with the fenders is the most time consuming part of this build. I'm really thinking about doing a conversion on my 99 outback wagon to a bug eye wrx STI , if I can get the engine and transmission I want to drop in it.
So so so so cool
Just good jobs man 👍
Thanks 👍
I am really entertained and motivated to do similar things by your work, and I do think that u could definitely keep it going without the subtitles but they do help a little bit if it's is something that is not fully understandable from the video itself... anyways, keep it going and congrats for the hard work and creativity
I'd love to know how you know all this stuff. I can tinker, upgrade and fix. But, what you do is art.
All just time and effort. I still make plenty of mistakes but you get better at spotting and fixing them the more you do.
Good job 💯 gread, I like to see your content nice2. 💯 😊 👍
Fire content
did the right thing by fixing it in place while that resin dry, because it srhinks!!
出来上がりが見えてきましたね
がんばってください。
fantastic
talvez eu seja mais um Brasileiro que vê todos os videos desse cara, com a esperança de um dia poder fazer oq ele está fazendo.
While you are at it, make some molds for those! Stagea owners are willing to buy those in glass fiber or carbon.
Шпаклей со стекловолокном первый слой проходиться , боюсь лопнет так , молодец 👍
Bog, sand, repeat. Ad infinitum. Looking good though, can't wait to see these "fenders" in carbon...
Wait, must grab my important popcorn real quick
I will happily drop that 1k like for you
There is one tool you really need and its vacuumcleaner. Pneumatic air just move dust all over your shop.
TURBO body filler, and the car on the tin has a supercharger instead lol
