Let me know what you thought of this video! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I want to note two things. One, Not all parts on eBay are cheap or bad. Obviously name brand parts are sold on eBay, But past that, there are cheap parts that work as well if not better than expensive versions. Bad expensive brands. Good cheap brands. I’ve learned a lot of this after working in the parts industry. Would anyone want to see a video on this? Where and when to buy cheap parts. What parts are the same. Different. Etc? How it all works?
You should do that with you comparing tools in a mini series, that would be extremely helpful
I think it would be a great video with your knowledge of the parts world
Absolutely! Great vid idea
Yes. Do it
That would be extremely helpful.
I absolutely love how you're integrating the drone shots into the normal things in the video dude. 10/10
Taylor, I hope you realise that you are going to have to remove the drive belt and spin the pump to prime the oil system BEFORE you start the engine. It is going to take some time to fill all those lines, cooler , filter and engine oil passages!
he can alway remove fuel pump fuse and use the starter to prime it ....
Wouldn’t it be better if the oil filter is upside down? So when you change the oil the oil doesn’t go every where and so the oil goes all the way through the filter
It shouldn't matter, there will be plenty of oil pressure with the dry sump system. Also majority of the oil will come out through the pan. But I see where there could be a concern.
@@lilbatman636 youre saying it will back drain through the cooler and pump? that doesnt seem likely. The best location, imo would have been on the outside of the frame rail infront of the wheel. Itd be better if the filter housing had the fittings on the side.
It'll work fine. Lot's of cartrage oil filters are mounted like that. As for changing the filter, he just needs to put some cardboard under it to direct the oil into a drain pan.
@@lb9gta307 Yeah, that's the annoying part
Careful that the stainless braided lines from one cooler don't rub through the rubber line on the other cooler!
As another comment said, why not put the filter in the trunk? Less mess for sure. Car is looking awesome.
This all looks sick! I'm just going to hate to see the oil spill everywhere when you change the filter. Aside from that, FANTASTIC work on everything you do!
What till you take that filter off the first time and oil goes everywhere
Please do the Subaru as a rallycross build, would be another form of racing for you to practice and would make great content as well.
Isn't this open flywheel hella dangerous while drifting? I mean getting beaten up by rocks and stuff
ive been wondering about that as well
No more dangerous than rocks slung out by tires.
I think some of the hoonigan guys messed up a flywheel on a vehicle that had an open trans
Im going to built a cover for it and I skid plate as well. Just keep forgetting to talk about it.
I had water fill my bellhousing up driving through a deep puddle and saturate my throwout bearing and ruin it while I was driving from washing out all the grease and overheating. So yeah hahaha
I love the drone shots. Really adds to the video
Hey taylor! just saying your videos are amazing. You explain everything, show us how to do it, and what you do wrong and dont hide that fact. You are very underappreciated, keep up the amazing work. Love the angles, different shots, music, info, etc. ❤
Why not mount the filter upside down on the frame rail?
Nice to see some progress ! Keep it up man !
I’m LOVING these drone shots Taylor. Great addition to the vlogs.
You're the real deal on TH-cam Taylor I hope your Channel get bigger and bigger you deserve way more , honnestly. Crazy the new drone angle/shot ahah !
wow new camera set up is dope taylor!
So exited to see Taylor in a subie! Hope you make that thing clean dude, actually I know you will.
Hey Taylor just and idea with the filter. Lofs of people have mentioned putting it im the trunk which i agree with, but instead of running lines all the way to the front; what is stopping you from putting the filter between the sump tank and the engine using the sump line? Same idea as putting in an inline fuel filter.
I agree with a lot of the others posting. Changing the filter might become a messy ordeal, even if it drains down. You'll still have residual oil from the filter hitting your bay. Perhaps a drain chute would be best on the bottom side of the oil filter between the housing and the bay that would drain toward the front end of the car (Keep the dripping oil away from the headers will increase their longevity, after all). Overall, you did an excellent job in this video, Taylor. Keep up the hard work. The drone shots were great, albeit, cutting in and out of them made the intro feel disconnected. Maybe in the future do a majority of the intro walk from the house to the pool door, then do the drone shot from the pool door to when you open the garage door as one shot.
your editing skills are sick man. must take a lot of extra time with the drone shots and everything. good work!!!!!!
Notification squad! Don’t forget Taylordrifts.com for the merch!
Really enjoying your drone shots keep it up 😀
Looking good, lesson learned on the line. Can't wait to see this set up rippin' up OSW.
Taylor filming is on point
I love the drone weather update intros!
I wish I was as knowledgeable with engines & building as you dude. Can’t wait to be able to do this on my own some day.
While not ebay parts related, I'd love to see a video on tires. From size to tread wear to PSI, the different brands you've used, maybe even touch on alignment set ups as well, and how it all affects grip. Would love to hear from you because I know you used to use used tires so I'm sure you have experience with many brands and how to step grip up or down for a tire.
Always start with the hard stuff first when u can so at least when its the end of the day and your tired you only have easy stuff to button up
Drone footage is always so cool
Talls to camera, points with left hand pans out to drone shot and points with right hand hahah good content man drone shots really adding to production
the goal! i like goals
Since you have so much clearance from the bottom of the oil pan and the bottom of the subframe, why not fab up a skid plate out of thick aluminum for extra protection?
Yep -an lines are expensive I use the eBay lines and connects for just fuel on my 6.0 LS s13 kinda want to go flex fuel.... love your vids
I hope you are taking oil drain back in to account with that remote filter location.
In wet sump systems, getting the proper anti-drainback valve oil filter is critical to retaining some oil in the filter for cold starts.
With the upside down position, make sure it's right.
It would suck to run a fancy dry sump to keep it oiled while drifting but have cold starts fuck up the engine.
Also, as stated previously, that upside down placement will probably make oil filter changes very messy.
Super clean build!
The new drone shots are sick
Your oil feed and return line on your oil cooler itself are backwards it can cause air to cavitate in your oil cooler which will reduce the volume of oil that comes in contact with a cooler which reduces the efficiency at which the oil cooler can cool the oil. Typically you want the inlet to be on the bottom and the outlet to be on the top that way as any air gets sucked into your line and through the oil cooler and it will go into the bottom naturally rise to the top as are does and then get pulled out through the top line. If you have the feed into the top and then out of the bottom when the air gets pulled through the line into the oil cooler air will want to rise naturally it doesn't want to sink so the air bubbles are going to get trapped in the top of the oil cooler while the heavier oil sinks to the bottom and gets sucked out through your outlet line. If you reverse your current Inlet and Outlet lines that will allow the oil to go into the bottom with the air and then come out of the top with the air. Your current setup lets the oil in and out but traps the air
Hey are you going to do anything to cover your flex plate where the oil pan meets it
That drone 3rd person view is phenomenal
I’d put some shielding around the line from the filter to to oil port on the block just to be safe. Plus the cooler won’t do much if the line after it goes right past the header and gets heated back up.
The drone shots add to the video keep doing those.
Best build youtube!!! Awesome car!!
7:00 this right here. This is where character is built
Planning sh*t out in your future vids will only get quicker
Coming along well!
Taylor, on suction hoses from Pan to scavenge stages- run an inner support spring inside the hose to stop collapse, the pumps suction can suck the hose closed. Just fyi
I'm Feenin like an addict to see this miata drift proam
Why Teflon vs standard braided hose for oil lines? Maybe I missed it earlier. For some reason, I thought it was a good idea to be able to gravity drain from the dry sump tank to the pump inlet? Same for the tank vent can.
You doing amazing work. Might i suggest you keep your oil lines of low in the short as possible. Or I just think you'll have a lot of problems with bleeding your system and then that it'll take a lot of oil for its capacity
Hey Taylor you may have trouble bleeding the air out of the oil system with the cooler and filter setup the way you do .feed from the bottom on the cooler and oil filter is upside down.
the journey of taylor trying to justify for himself the purchase of a drone is always funny to me.
You got this taylor
What did you do with the original oil pump and pickup from the engine do they get removed? Also under the headlights since the motors and original lights have been deleted would have been a cool spot for the oil filter and expansion tank
Drone footage is sick
Good luck getting the air out the system with the filter that way.
Your normally supposed to run into the bottom of the cooler then out of the top so you don't get air bubbles trapped in the cooler but it should be fine with the high flow rate you have.
Usually use a wire from a old harness. Run it the way you would the line. Then measure it. That stuff is expensive no point in ordering too much if you don’t need it.
I think you may have issues with air getting trapped in the oil filter with it mounted like that. Kinda like why you never mount a cooler with the fittings pointing straight down.
I've had good luck with vibrant line. Pretty solid brand
Hey, in my opinion you should put the oil filter inline before the oil cooler. That way if you do have a malfunction in the engine most of the stuff will get caught in the filter not all of it going straight into your cooler.
if you want decent price line thats still good quality go with summit racing line. i buy all their branded an fittings and line and i think its great quality. never had any problems with them
You just went past the minimum bend radius for that hose, that's another thing you have to consider when making -an hoses
Put the filter under the front of the car so oil doesn't go everywhere when you change it and it makes your lines straighter and shorter
You gotta get that rubber hose from your reservoir tank further off the header. Either tig it up and move it or hard line it. Won't last very long at all.
Is the oil filter designed to be mounted like that? To mount like that it should have a non return valve in it so the oil actually flows through the filter
I dunno about dry dump but on a hydraulic system you cool and filter on the return side of the system
the wheelie on the pit bike was siiiiiick
Brent at PFI is the AEM king for tuning the 4 banger Miata
Ebay has great parts... China on the other hand.
China has great parts as well, just gotta know what to buy.
Depends what you get from China, the factories make stuff to a price, the higher the price, the better the part.
Depends what you consider off-brand. CXRacing is a pure china company but makes SOME quality parts.
Connecting Rods from Chinese companies are also acceptable depending on your power goals (For the Miata at least).
i've been shopping on ebay almost weekly since 2013, all you need to do is a little bit of research on what you are buying. If you are careful, only 1-5% will fail.
i use all china brand an-6 fittings and hose's without a problem yet knock on wood lol
Dig the drone shots
Maybe mount the oil filter in the wheel well and other side up? You know, that spillage thing ...
Why don’t you put the oil filter before your coolers so it saves them if get shavings from the sump system or engine?
I’ve had great luck with fragola ptfe lines just a second choice
Please put sparco wheels on the Subaru or some sort of OG rally wheels. Everyone's saying your gonna make a mess changing the filter lol or you could just drain the filter by taking off the one of the lines and it won't make any mess lol
I feel bad if i missed it but what's the plan with the motor for the subi? EDIT: Also is Adam going to paint the GC8 chassis?
hey taylor will you be going to the spring break bash at osw?
Would've been cool to mount the filter relocate to the front bar.
There’s a shit ton of room outside of the frame rail and core support in the corner of the bumper where you talked about putting the p clamp for that line..... should have just made a little bracket and hung the filter in that corner.
Wanna see a vid on the next Miata oil change! Wanna see how that filter goes 👀
Would love to see you do a 12v cummins build
Need some different hot boi wheels to go with this sexy build!
Hell yea brotherr!
Love that hat u have Taylor
I don't understand people and the upside down oil filter thing. In my experience that just covers the whole filter in oil, vs all the oil dropping below your hand
I hate when TH-camrs say a products trash but don’t say who made it, because I don’t want to accidentally end up buying that brand
What brand is your remote mount oil filter housing?
Taylor, in my experience, save yourself some pain with that oil filter relocator
mount it so that the oil filter is straight up above (like a Wankel)
I thought it was a crappy way to do it till I did an oil change with it and it didnt have a single stray drop
You didn't mention PACO Racing when talking about parts for that Gambler car... ?
"i geel that it is so weak, it will just suction shut" . . . lol
we got to test that. and see how many pound will do that to the cheap line
peace, eric
Trying to picture the fuel rails gold🧐
Oil 8s going everywhere when the oil change comes time
Are you going to run something to cover the flywheel?
oil filter orientation well done
1:08 is there a cover to stop rocks and debris from damaging the flywheel?
Do a tool box tour and show us all of your tools
bro bring back the old intros with the new drone shots
maybe i missed it or maybe someone commented this already but... Are you going to leave your flywheel exposed or is there a cover for that lower part ????
I'm putting some 3sdm .05 on my gc8 16x9
Love the excessive amounts of drone shots
Did you think about moving the filter relocation to the trunk with the tanks?
It's on the hp side thus he'd need to run 2 more lines. also that extra length means the engine is starved of oil for longer after an oil change
Didn’t think of where it was in the loop. So that make sense.
@@brianlankford3135 Looking at Dry Sump pictures and diagrams, seems you want it after the pump but before the oil cooler. So he could have mounted it near the oil cooler in the front bumper possibly.
its always somthing with modified cars I'm glad you show its not just me
Nope not just you. This is why I love simple hondas. So many options and easy to keep a daily fast and mostly OEM parts. Cant beat the reliability.
I’ve even had my fair share of B.S. with Honda’s 😓 lol
