That ending was fire.
I just choked on my coffee. 😂
Ben's smug look standing next to Ben freaking out. Awesome.
Iconic! 😂😂
Perfectly stated!
😂
That ending is pure gold! 😅
😅😅Yupp
im gold brother
That look on Thorn’s face at the end 😂
Little Ben standing like the last boss 😊
The Confidence in Ben's (Thorne) face at the end 🤣🤣🤣
The end is the BEST GnG Moment after : After calmly discussing our options, Ben and I have mutually decided it would be best to take the freeway, and before we knew it, we were finally out of Georgia
Short Ben's face at the end had me dying lmao
Great to see you all wrenching on cars again. Love the new wheels. Good luck next week on the battle.
The new wheels are another level.
Love to see more of Mark, good to see him getting more comfortable behind the camera! Hope to keep seeing more of your official mechanic!
Honestly that “what the fuck” at the end just got me in tears 😂
LOL @ the ending. 🤣
That end credit was perfect, going to be interesting for sure.
Civic Ben is the freaking best! That ending was hilarious!
Anyone else see he was using the ratcheting 12 point on the eye bolt for the seat and totally get the wrench locked in there once the nut was tightened? 8:08.
That tube that runs next to the bolt is a flexible coolant hose. No issue there
Nevermind then lol. I thought I caught something.@@camryt
Feel like there needs to be a petition, bring back the ‘tache..
Hahaha that ending! 😅
for anyone not wanting to trial and error the songs in the description like i did, the banger at 3:38 is flux by harry keyworth :)
I feel like when this MR2 has the kinks and bits ironed out of it, Such as the fitment and what not.
It'll look really impressive
The Mr2 looks so good now! What a transformation!
That was an amazing ending! Love seeing you both push each other. Keep it up guys, you guys make my Saturdays.
Dude, can’t wait to for next episode! I’m rooting for the MR2. An underdog is always a good story.
The ending was perfect lmao 🤣
I ran NT01s in SCCA on my ITA 914/6 for years before updating to a STU Cayman, they're a really great all around tire.
Lmao I had to hammer back those exact pinchwelds on my ion redline when I put 255's on it.
The end LMAO 😂, Ben vs Ben again! 🔥💀
Car is looking awesome can’t wait to see what’s next
It's great to see someone doing a build on one of these, so excited to see the finished project!
Also, looks like the axle nut on the rear wasn't keyed into the axle. Not sure if that was purposeful but having just done the cv to my mr2 I figured I would point it out in case.
That ending, love it!!!!!
Nice work! Great episode!
fantastic, always appreciate more mr-s vids
That’s cold lol Ben vs Ben
LOL the end was the best part! So good to see both of you guys racing together again.
Hey Mark.. glad your on board.. You matter to God
Cool episode! What an amazing battle hahaha nobody saw that coming😂
Man I love you guys videos its gonna be hella competitive this time
Ben 1: what the f**beep
Ben 2: ** smiling smug face
Love to see the progress, would recommend taking a dremel to all those vents down the sides and out back though. Also, do those side skirts have ducts that go nowhere? Cap ‘em off if that’s the case.
I know it's not painted, but the red and white combo looks great on this car! Like a race car 🚗
Hey already saw your car finished, it's looks good
The Chapter names are pure gold too
awesome video as always guys.
Can you believe the history of these mr-s, they used to race with the giants GTRs, Supras and NSX in the gt300 series, also one of the fastest trial mountain vehicle.
Literally my home track. See you there, bro!
Mark might be the only person I’ve ever seen line up the yellow dot with the valve stem. In my shop we’ve mounted a set where 2 we’re like that and 2 we’re randomly placed and the random ones actually balanced out better - so we all stopped caring about those dots.
Wow, to think this MR2 went from being a RGB, cock rocket covered monstrosity to almost an actual track weapon is really satisfying.
Love the mrs content. Hope to see you out there one day in mine
Amazing looking Spyder
The ending cracked me up!!! Awesome videos guys!!!
Thanks for the 15% off !!! Got my trailhawk a full tune up at advance online order keep up the content need another road trip in my opinion!!
Try running an 8k front 6k rear setup to reduce the oversteer sketchiness. You're running a fwd spring rate setup. Or you may want to play with spring rates to get it more neutral.
I use VR1 10W30 on my turbo Saleen! Still running strong at 190k miles
Car looks great guys
Y'all are now journeyman level mechanics and fabricators. Great work! Now it's time to take the guard off your grinder.
Brake bleed montage was 🔥
Dot5.1 fluid is a master key 🗝️
Ending was gold
MR2 CONTENT BABY LETS GO
There's a company that makes an oil filter adapter/relocator for the 2arfe. Would highly recommend. It would allow you to run an oil cooler and have more oil capacity. I put a big ol wix on my 2011 camry and it got the job done 😂💯
Glad y'all made it back to the shenandoah circuit. Brings back memories of when y'all covered gridlife there. Stay true to your roots, spend more time on the driver.
Reatore the Headlights and go with Samsung's Mover LED series! Old type bulbs may be good but aint good enough! I replaced mine recently and the difference is amazing
Hope to see road trip video with this car.
The smart car scene 😂😂😂😂
What happened to the high revving ITB engine build? Feel like we never really saw that perform.
Build coming along nicely.... but with the planned fitment, might as well go ahead and load up on wheel bearings ASAP
easy as 1 2 3 (adjusting pinch welds)!
Word of advice, get the aluminum oil filter housing for this engine.
Love that "adjust" is "just whack it with the biggest hammer I can find"
Is that massive tire and wheel setup really beneficial for a car at this weight and power level?
I lol'ed so hard on Ben using the k car. And that ending was gold 😂😂😂
That was your best video ending ever!
haha the smirk at the end 😏
that ending.. epic
Just wondering what arodynamic rule limitations your facing. The wide body kit seems overstyled. Blocking airflow rather than channeling it. You might consider trying to optimize airflow over the whole car. (Splitter/diffuser, low drag)And compare it to just adding a wing/splitter(high drag).
The end was epic, let's see how things turn out, because those cars do not are close in specs
Send it 🤘🤘
lifting the wiper up to display how shredded the rubber was, that was epic
Car looks awesome as is tbh. That fucked up hood is chefs-kiss. Good luck Ben(s)!
Epic finish and I can't wait
am i the only person who liked the body stock? haha I've never meet again that likes it
That ending was great lol
😂 the ending.
Nice iron man livery!! Nice konig wheels!! Please put a swan neck spoiler🔥🔥
That last shot was brilliant. ha ha. I laughed so hard.
I need another road trip series
what was that tool they used to secure the studs
The ending! 😂😂
Did you have issues with the original swap axels. I think I spotted the 930 axels on there now. Asking because I recently had one explode on me
The ending with the big smile on ben thorn face😂
Shout out to all the stock cosmetic MR-S😅
Ben got me wishing mine had a wide body xD
man you guys should do a trackday prep video
that segment with the extended stud really hit home for like 2 thirds of my hometown, i was unfortunately the small stud.
Blue would be a great color for it
Are those wilwood forged dynalite calipers?
Hahah the ending was hilarious
Made in China rims? I think we might have another rim trophy to go with the EVOs Advan. I know they are cheap but on the track? You brave… you brave. GL Ben, think u will need it against the Civic. 👍🏻
Just started watching the video and i hope it either ends with the mr2 in one color or in livery
Woooowwww looks good
thats a major PLOT TWIST
great ending, but I am sad they each didn't get to face a different opponent
More mr2 content plz
