I work at Toys R Us and mechanical stig came in one day and i saw this majestic beast parked in the carpark and i almost lost it and couldn't contain my excitement
Aidan E I guess you no longer work there lol.
nistra ‘clean up on aisle 2’ haha
Zac Youngson haha yep 👍
This should be on the main channel. This is sweet
The smile on turbo yoda is amazing. You can see he truly loves what he does.
I'd think a build would be on the main channel. Happy either way!
+Saajan Chowdhry this show features Mechanical Stig and Turbo Yoda so we thought it was important they had their own dedicated show on MCMTV2 rather than mixing it up with other MCM vids. Still free, still epic, and still all over social media it seems :)
+mcmtv2 Sounds good to me! Just keep up the good work MCM :)
I think it's a good move for the boys, given this second channel has a mere 350,000 subscribers compared to there main channels 1,700,000 subscribers, hopefully this new series will help this second channel grow even further :)
+mcmtv2 you already have the electric car and the mini on the main channel. This has its place on this channel.
You guys should rename this channel to 'Mighty Car Mods 2.' It might make it more searchable.
or you could just search mcmtv2 lol
Fuaarrkk I don't need to search it as I'm subscribed. I am commenting on the basis that this channel has only 300k subscribers vs 1.7 million on the main channel.
+c3vzn that's why it's called mcmtv2..... it was for bonus little features. And i guess now they promoted it to help get the subs up.
Search engine optimisation is a really good idea. Nobody finds mcmtv2 when searching for mighty car mods because there are no similar keywords.
+c3vzn somehow I think they made this by choice ..."harder" to find, to keep all the meddling kids out who scream "BUILT AN SUPRA, SKYLINE, MINI SUX BRUH" under every video. This is a place for the ..connoisseurs of MCM :D
it looks absolutely stunning with that gt-r34 front end :D
I really must demand a "Feel The Dribble" sticker. Take my money!!
What I love about this is the attitude and approach "if it don't fit, we'll make it"...
This has to face SuperGramps...
It's gotta be a good race... Stagea is larger, probably will make more power, SuperGramps is lighter. Who knows!
+MineTwine45 this will probably murder supergramps
+george e I got $5 on gramps!
+MineTwine45 Stagea will shit on supergramps. Hard.
+MineTwine45 i bet 50 cents that nissan will win, and im taking a serious risk here.
Prediction: MCMtv2 is going to have some new record view counts soon.
+Leon Kernan This should really be on the main channel but I get why it's not.
+kevman5 its not their build, thats why its not on the main channel.
Yea yea, I want ep. 2 in two seconds! Most fun with pants on, was when I found Gramps build ep. 1 and then 15 more in one go! Two bottles of red wine later, all were watched...hic.
+Leon Kernan They are monetizing this channel aka this series for turbo Yoda and mechanical stig so they make money of of their build instead of mcm. Quite selfless, great work!
So. Much. Win. Love everything about this build guys. Also props to Marty and Moog for not doing the "it's our channel" thing and just hosting the series. Looking forward to updates immensely!
MCM means a lot to me , I absolutely love hearing these guys get into the details of a project . Their love of cars and engineering helped inspire me to start uni to learn engineering . Cheers boys for all the great videos over the years and finding these absolute champions along the way .
I think it could have gone on the main channel. Turbo Yoda and Mechanical Stig are regular fixtures on MCM anyway. SuperGramps and ModMax never would have happened without them! This will be an epic build!
How did I miss this build?!! So glad I found it!
MAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!
This seems like a perfect collaboration, give these guys a bit of their own spotlight for an incredible build like this. You guys keep making amazing decisions with your content, keep doing your thing gents.
The pure joy on turbo Yodas' face is awesome, you can see the wheels turning as he's talking about it.
This is going to be an epic project.
Basically a BMW 550xi Touring ;)
It's a twinturbocharged 4.4L V8 AWD station wagon.
except it doesnt cost a fortune
talking about current gen,right?
N0SK1LLS Yeah. And of course, this build will be much cooler and more interesting
What I'm saying is: The stats will turn out similar. Can't wait to see it.
+Benedocta is it avaibabe with a manual though?
StefanoTrefano Its the only 5 series that isnt.
The rules and laws must suck for Car enthusiast in Australia.
yeah ls nation would be crying themselves to sleep every night if it was this way here in the States
+Geek Army I didn't even know about the power to weight rule. Just something else to complain about along side pod filter restrictions and other garbage
+Wildstyle96 Well, I was aware of a weight to chassis law (cos I read about a team who were toying with an RX-7 and getting it's 13B turboed, but it wouldn't work due to weight issues in it's body), but not the capacity-weight rule.
+Azoriez You've obviously never been to California lol. Super strict emissions, almost can't even modify the engine at all.
Sean Kallas yeah cali is run by communist
Stoked! Damn the dreambuilds just keep coming! Can't wait to see more!
Also, damn you guys are lucky to have friends with friends that own a Haas Mill. You get custom parts, you get custom parts, EVERYONE GETS CUSTOM PARTS!
That car is actually the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life ever
you guys need to set up a live stream!
agreed
+DayRider76 Best Idea Ever !!!!
Nest DropCam, live feed via website and can be embedded on another website. Some other channels I watch do this.
+DayRider76 A live feed of them working on cars with the added complexity of watching them set up shots?
haha you would really sit there and watch them spinning spanners for hours on end?
BenAshlyn Zuideveld I've got multiple monitors! So why not?
Respect for mechanical stig just tripled cos he will only have a manual 👍
i saw one of these last year in seattle at Stance Wars and it absolutely took my breath away. i couldn't believe how perfect of a car this thing was. rb26dett, manual, awd and TONS of room for people and storage. i would take one of these over an r34 any day
Spread this series around the media. This is going to be legendary.
Ill stick with my rb in my stagea.
+Epikas 400+ HP on low boost doesn't appeal? and torque?
Of course it is, but there is something about the inline 6 that makes the stagea feel more like the Skyline that it is based on. I guess coming from an R32, i'm a little stuck over on the RB engine. Also noise wise, my preference is on the sound of the inline 6 over a V8.
+Epikas Keep watching :)
Always will. You guys never fail to impress~
+Epikas i would rather run with the rb too, but there is allways fun to make a more "special" swap
"feel the dribble " - Moog 2016
How this isn't a TV show yet I'll never know.
Even something like Netflix should pick this up.
Amazing work guys.
Thankyou
I could listen to Alan (Turbo Yoda) talk about cars for hours!! Awesome Video MCM!
6:45 summoning Satan to help make the gearbox work
So it's Nissan Super Gramps? Sounds amazing I want one.
seeing this in my sub box on my birthday makes me happy, god damn that has to be the best looking stagea ive ever seen
I love the way he is smiling all the way through the video. Turbo Yoda is a legend
Oh my my, oh hell yes, baby put on that V8 dress.
Put your pants back on, man.
+Myth0l0gical pants off dance off
That's called porn. Take me out to dinner first, you heathen!!!
Myth0l0gical you're buyin'
+Christopher Casale... tom petty mary-jane's last dance... always love that line
I'm still hoping that Turbo Yoda will someday Twin-Charge (Turbo+Supercharging... like the Gr.B Lancia Delta S4) something.
This build to me is one of the best modern day hotrods I've seen.
So crazy to see how far MCM has come! This is like a legit car show you see on tv... but better!
What is the name of the background song at 1:00 ?
what's is the background music in 0:50 ???
The funniest thing about MCM, to me anyway, is the way Moog Says Martins name. It's the enthusiasm and delivery of the name that makes it funny.
Watching Turbo Yoda talk about choo chooing engines with a huge grin on his face is the best bit of this video.
Why not make a V12 out of two rb's?????
The engine would weigh like half a tonne.
why cant you guys make more down-to-earth videos like the old days?
I hadn't read the description, so when TurboYoda showed the VH41 (was expecting typical LSx) I nearly squealed with excitement!
I've been wanting someone to give the VH's a chance! Can't wait!!!! :D
Seen this at a glance and got excited for an RB build. This is even better, keen as to see the series.
But would this work on a Honda?
But can you be original?
Double Unicorn?
More like Turbo Fridge...
In a good way.
PacificCoastAuto they should call it fisher & paykel haha
THIS PROJECT IS AWESOME OML.... THE 48 HOUR UPDATE MADE ME FAINT.....
I really like the "interview" shots. Little insights like they are giving are a nice touch.
what ive learned from this video, #1 australia has some super stupid rules about engine swaps. #2 turbo yota, dos vader, mechanical stig, marty, moog, etc just need to move to the usa so they can do more crazy mad projects. only down side is we cant import a car unless its 25 years old
V8s are overused there are soooo many awesome engines ouT there..
+cosworth itsworth This is a VH41DE though which definitely isn't that common as a V8 which makes it interesting.
+cosworth itsworth Watch the freaking video.
+Jak well i guesss so..
+Boni Hollóssy you watch it
cosworth itsworth Well that was pretty dumb.
They said in the video why they put a V8 in it, because they put 1-2J, and RBs in everything generally, and as the dude said it before me it's not just another LS or something. Pretty unique project.
Cannot find words for the awesomeness of this project.
I am literally so happy right now I can't contain it, but at the same time don't have any idea on how to let it out! I'm very excited about this series for a few reasons. Love Stageas and I personally have a VH45, very similar to the VH41 going in the car. I must own a Stagea!
In my opinion the LS series is a cancer in the Japanese tuning community
it's not your car, so why are you worried about it?
+Harry Sandbach i get what your'e trying to say, it kills unique engine setups because it's the most reliable option for power and the aftermarket support is huge. it irritates me too.
+Harry Sandbach Be happy that all those LSes are displacing the engines you love - every LS going in means another engine on the open market, driving prices down, down, down.
What's great about cars built in Japan not American 'JDM ' builds (left hand drive USDM cars) is the individuality and differences in tunes and parts used. You don't know if the silvia is RB20 turbo 400+ hp or if it's stock until you look under the bonnet. Now all you see in usa is LS swapped cars so it's boring. Even the iconic engined cars like rx7 and s2000 have LS swaps and it's just sacrilege. You ask a genuine enthusiast and they'll agree. I'm not a Puritan and I do like engine swaps just pay some respect to the cars heritage. That's my opinion anyway so go ahead and build a 'drift missile' 240sx but don't expect any admiration from enthusiasts.
+Harry Sandbach I totally understand viewpoints like 'but the f20 is half of why the (non-us) s2k is great!'. I loved my UK ep3 civic typer for its 8k redline. I was constantly amazed that my 97 e36 m3 evo revved even higher despite being a 3.2l inline 6. hell, i even live the twin turbo 3l diesel in my 535d and you BET I want to swap the 2l four pot in my wife's mk3 mx5 for an LS, even though its great fun and surprisingly fast as-is. I love all the things, and was trying to give you a silver lining to the thing you hate. And hating it is a thing you're totally allowed to do, if all the cars you see in the arenas you're interested in are stuffed with an LS, well, I can see where you're coming from. make friends with the teams though, and recycle the built blocks you love but they just leave sitting in a corner of their garage, so you have the most unique thing of all!
Been seeing hints about this build for a while on instagram, so glad to get a video series of it!
I've never seen turbo yoda so happy it makes me happy
I liked this video ... 5 sec later I tried liking the video again thinking I haven't yet. This is just awesome
Super excited about this build! I love the geeky, nerdy, technical bits of a build. I can't wait!!
Love it! It reminds me of a proper 850 turbo. The wife wouldn't let me get the 850 t. She said it looked like a box. I tried every angle to get her to like it. It's has a turbo (which she wanted). It is super safe (just had a baby). I showed her how it would look after I changed a few things ( lower a little,tint and wheels and tires. Still no go. Ugh.
We ended up getting a STi though. So it wasn't a complete lose. Sweeeeeet.
The fact that this was uploaded on my birthday just makes me smile!!
That car looks unique and sick! can't wait to see some longer shots with that beast on the streets. Alan is best host ever! it's really good idea to put them both in new show!
This insane! I love builds like this. Too many people are concerned with cheap and sensible options. I would love to be building stuff like this some day. You guys are an inspiration.
Definitely looking forward to seeing this pup come together.
I always really enjoyed seing mechanical stig and turbo yoda on the "normal" mcm episodes. this is awesome!
These are unquestionably the coolest car guys and vids on TH-cam. Loving the tech-heavy, honest content on MCM2 lately. Keep it up boys! Missing my cars so bad here. Cheers from Shanghai!
-Mike
Turbo Yoda is back. That man is awesome.
This is what mighty car mods should be about, I miss these awesome builds. not minis, this should be on the main channel
my grandpa did what these guys did on cars in the 50s and 60s in new zealand, watching these guys reminds of him, and how these people fab so much themselves in aulstralia and nz
I could watch 1hour long episodes of this, very interesting build!
this is such an Amazing build. wish we had this platform in the states!
Turbo Yoda approves your LS swap!
Its not an LS
+Josh Lum I think he means in general that Turbo Yoda give the thumbs up for LS's
Main channel worthy! Been following this guys instagram for ages. So glad your making videos on it
i wonder why this isnt on the main channel? But much respect to them to see they will put videos of this complexity up on here, even though they wont get as many views or money. I like to see suttely they put these videos up here!
I love the entire back catalogue of MCM pretty much but it's cool to see more in depth technical stuff happening, this was very explanatory and I'm really hoping that continues for engine mount design, bellhousing adapter and clutch combination etc. Super interested!
Its funny, I was in Australia on Vacation and was at the Sydney Drag on like January 13th or something, (that WED) and had no idea who owned it. Loved the look of it and now this video comes out and I thought I recognized it. Such a sick GTR
When I bought my passat wagon I started looking at wagons and found the stagea. it's literally my dream car if I could ever afford one
As a Stagea owner exactly like the one you showed us, I'm pretty interesting to see the results.awesome
Just wanna say thanks for all your vids! Really appreciate what you guys do
+SuperRivas18 thanks man its nice to be reminded that people are loving it!
😍😍😍 i love "backyard" builds. its always amazing to see what people can do to change a factory shell/car to make it their own. i can already tell im going to love this series
I CANT BELIEVE I HAVENT SEEN THIS CHANNEL IVE BEEN WATCHING MCM FOREVER AND ONLY FOUND IT BECAUSE IM TRYING TO BUY A STAGEA WTAF
So stoked to see these guys again! It's cool to see something different.
The Stagea is gorgeous with the skyline front end! I'm from the states, so I don't think we have them. But that thing is probably the best looking wagon I have ever seen, it looks great already lol
For real? I just stumbled across this in my home page. This is too good to be true!
The tears of joy are flowing, that's maad!
So I think these episodes get at least 10 seconds longer every time they say the name of build. Looking forward to the rest of this series.
really cool video , many Nissan enthusiasts often forget how great the vh41 and vh45 are. I have 2 z32 300zxs and have considered the swap many times
This should be on the main channel. I really want to see more of this build
I was actually asleep ten minutes ago. Totally worth it.
Hell yes! Let's see some of 'The Gurus' builds. MOAR please!
as an ls1 GTO driver hearing turbo yoda basically say that turboing an ls engine is TOO powerful for Australian law, I can't stop smiling.
I could listen to turbo yoda talk for hours
Super excited about this build guys. Can't wait to see how it turns out
So inspiring seeing how amazing each video you guys produce these days. Watched every video you've made on these 2 channels and when you consider how basic the first videos were... you guys chopped the internet.
Yay Stig and Yoda content. These two guys are amazing.
3 videos this week. thank you. keep them coming
Out of the blue and loved it, can't wait for the rest.
Turbo yoda, man of few words said a lot in this show. I think he will not talk at all for next year after this.
You guys are so fortunate to have these cool platforms to base builds off... :(
I'm already excited for this and I haven't even gotten through the title sequence
Really cool with the bell housing adapter design, I am studying Mechanical engineering in College and hope to do alot of work for cars. I just started learning how to use SolidWorks as well, so on that end I was pretty excited.
Mechanical stigs Stagea Looks awesome. What a transformation!
