That should help you get a nice new Fluke meter. Have fun and thanks for the hard work!
😲Holy Moley
A worthy cause!
Holey smokes Batman.
¡Ay, caramba! 😲
10/10 mate 👏👏👏
Some of us Old Timers appreciate your work because we've done it ourselves. The only difference is wondering how you get it done with those Nails!
My nails are f*#ked right now 😂
You are the best car mechanic/restorer I’ve even seen.
Always glad to see a builder on YT that finishes projects and shows us all that is involved. Too much fun.
Yeah. Goonzsquad got lame
This is why I have been watching her videos for years now. No cheesy/goonish nonesense, funny puns, inuendos, and great attention to detail.
Only one ever finished a project that i know of, except for the Ford Rally car, but that will get done.
Your comedic approach is always welcomed. Along with your obvious mechanical skills. Thanks.
So freaking 😎 cool .
Satire
Fun fact, many birds, including parrots DO eat rocks, very small pebbles, to help grind up their food in their gizzards.
Wild
Does that technically mean they're cyborgs? I mean, they have inanimate objects implanted in their bodies... 😛
I first read that in a Doctor Dolittle book from the 1920s.
many dinosaurs did too.
@@SarahnTuned we had parakeets as kids. Absolutely true. They use tiny pieces of gravel.
Can we all just agree that Sarah always has the coolest t-shirts
Presentation is always an eleven. As in one more than ten.
I geek out on these wiring videos because hardly anyone has the patience to show the process. Much appreciated 🙏🏻
These have been GOLD for advancing my knowledge. A lot of what is really useful is the pure geeky details that are left out other places. I appreciate when I can learn efficiently, and also gain an understanding of the difficulty and time consuming nature of the hands on work.
YEP- because it can be a hellish nightmare, builders frequently lose their patience to put it nicely.
I appreciate the wiring knowledge and the awesomeness
Agreed, not many auto TH-camrs show much of this process and it would be the least that I have knowledge of.
Hey Sarah.. I'm a retired mechanic here in western N.M. (sort of next door to you). You definitely check all the boxes for my interests, since I'm a big Toyota fan, and I specialized in automotive wiring for over 30 years. I'm very impressed with your penchant for doing it right the first time, and I can imagine what you went through to combine systems from 3 different vehicles, while trying to keep it all looking like it was designed that way from the factory! I'm really anticipating hearing that 2UZ crank for the first time. Keep up the fantastic work gal!!🤩⚡⚡👍👍👍
It’s super interesting to see how Toyota has stayed consistent over generations of employees designing the vehicles. There’s stuff done identically the same in 1974 as they did in 2005 in some aspects (taking into consideration available technology of the day).
@@SarahnTuned Japanese engineers are true craftsmen. Who will go above and beond to get it right.
If it works, don't fix it, right ?
If you haven't figured it out by now, there are over 650000 of us that are obsessed with anything Sarah.
If you ever just say stop working on cars, you could probably start your own cleaning company lol😂
I would do land scaping or wild animal videos, lol.
@@SarahnTunedmore roadrunners and gila monsters would be cool to see
@@SarahnTuned all I want now is for you to create nature videos and deliver Attenborough quality voice overs. I mean we get that occasionally, "There's a crow playing soccer on the roof with an acorn right now.", but whole videos would be wonderful :)
The combined image this brings to my brain is videos of furscaping gazelles. Which, to be fair, I would probably also watch. Because who doesn’t want to see a gazelle get extensions and/or liberty spikes?
@@SarahnTunednow that would be interesting
I think part of it isn’t specifically because of the content, but because we like Sarah. You’re funny, you’re smart, you work your butt off, and you manage to make whatever kind of content you happen to be making interesting and entertaining - even if it normally wouldn’t be. Keep it up!
I think this is the key. It's not that wiring is especially interesting, but Sarah makes it interesting with her wit, work-ethic and attention to detail.
And she's a Zeppelin fan...,
Best line ever... "I wanna touch it so bad and see what happens".
This is where all my willpower goes.
Oh those intrusive thoughts just never stop! LOL
🤦
“Trimming carpet for beefy robot sausage” I got that one ☺️
Awesome to see a lady that likes to build cars and has such an awesome personality. I bet she's a blast to hang out with.
Total admiration. A project most of us would walk away from. Fantastic series.
yaaay, another video :>. thank you. i'm obsessed with this series
The wiring may be time consuming, but time spent with you is time very well spent.
Loving the loom work. It's my favourite part of any build. Frustrating to do but very satisfying when it's done neatly and logically. Also completely unappreciated by most people who don't understand the hours involved! Keep up the great work.
I can now understand the importance of your adherence to "factory" as much as possible. Years after you touched this monster, some Toyota (or other knowledgable) mechanic will be able to make sense of the wiring. I wish everybody had these values, Sarah!
The last "Connecting Power For The First Time" video, for Mr. Dos, is easily my favorite SNT video. Ever. Of all time.
Wiring is a dark art that most people just gloss over. Thanks for including all the details. ❤
I love how you never cut corners. You do the best I have eve seen.
The time and effort you are putting into this car and channel is unmatched. Keep it going
Hey Sarah, we do "judge " you. We judge you on your fantastic work, the creative content and dry humor. Keep it up.
hey sara !!!! when, when it that car going to start.. i want to hear that motor START.....
My second car was a 76 GT, loved that car! This series is great, perfect for those of us who enjoy someone who is working smart! Also I love your humor!
I can't believe how beautiful that car is.
Former toyota engineer here. I don't know if it has been brought to you before but every part in a toyota car goes through the process of "DRBFM" meaning "Design Review Based on Failure Mode" which is basically doing "if the part is great then don't change it" so when i see pedal designs almost identical then... 😏😏
But... The a25a.....
@@davidbowden7083 DRBFM applies to incremental changes, if you want a major tech shift like the one wanted for platform architecture/cost cutting reasons then the method is useless.
What did they do to prevent cosmic ray particles from flipping a one and zero on the chip in the drive by wire controllers?
I'm am not qualified to judge you......but I do appreciate your work. I always learn something new.
Great job, Sarah! I judge you as a dedicated person, never surrender!
I saw a pilot meme.
Pilots manual one book.
Maintenance manual, ten books.
Explains why you are a pro.
swindled by beauty, intelligence the mechanical ability. Did I mention beauty!
Yeah, that was the first thing you mentioned.
u might be in for a little surprise lol
@@ikaros4203I was thinking the same thing. The song Lola comes to mind.
Thanks!
Your excitement at the beginning put a big smile on my face. I cant wait to see/hear this one running, i love it!
That Celica looks so much like my 74 Datsun 710!
This is a great series.
Thank you Sarah 🙏
Always both informative and just so light-hearted.... that's your skills 👍😁
Also, it's quite common for birds to eat pebbles and rocks to help with digestion. True story. ❤
AMAZING 🤩
You are BUILDING a car 😮
I’ve been watching from the beginning and this is just amazing.
One person doing all this is …
My wife and I truly love your videos. I love your puns too….lol We are about to watch you connect power for the first time. This Celica is gonna be so sick!!!!!!!
What I really love about you channel is the Beavis and butthead references I thought I was the only one that still remembers that brilliance 😂
As a 25 year auto electrician, I am constantly impressed by your methodic approach, technical skills and accumulated knowledge.
Ignore the judgers. One tip: I used to temporarily use an old sealed beam in place of individual fuses when connecting something for the first time. The brightness of the light gives you an indication of resistance. Bright light- could be a short circuit, no light - open circuit, Dim light - prolly correct resistance. In any case, prevents the smoke from escaping.
I can barely get myself to work on finishing the wiring harness on a John Deere H112. You, on the other hand, build a whole custom harness showing us attention to detail that is incredible. I’m always inspired and blown away by the work you do. Keep up the great work.
Nobody works like this, beautiful is trying to make fire 🔥
Sarah... I love it when your work gets straddled properly so that the outcome is flawless.😊
Hello Sarah! Congratulations for the quality of your job. It's just perfect! I'm a big fan of japan car ( i have a 85 Corolla AE86, 96 Subaru Impreza GT and 08 Subaru Legacy for daily drive) and i love the way you will make this car looks the most like oem. I can't wait to see it finished. I live in Switzerland, here we have the Swiss quality label and i can say, you can have the Swiss quality label without any problems for all your job! Thanks for sharing that with us!
Best regards
Ludo
With King of the hill, and beavis and butthead, you are the queen of samples. 😅
The wiring videos aren't my favorite, but I like all your videos, especially the Celica project videos. I can't wait until you get the engine fired up.
I wonder how many people watching this were blessed to see any of Ricky Lake's real gem episodes.
I have very few viewers under the age of 30, so most i'd say.
@@SarahnTuned From my experience, most under-30s would watch what you do and believe it to be a blend of black magic and bargaining with Beelzebub.😁
Ricky lake what? Was Sarah on an episode?
Missed opportunity for a “that ain’t goin’ anywhere” wiggle on the newly mounted battery box!
Multimeter = "Most Expensive Fuse Ever". I get that !!
All those hours have paid off. The car is looking fantastic 🤩
Computers (the capacitors inside) can draw a very high current when you first connect your ground. Enough to cause sparks. It's better to make a direct connection first and then break it while holding the probes to the terminal and wire. So make a direct connection and while breaking the direct connection, leave the multimeter connected in series - any parasitic draw can be measured that way while not blowing the fuse in your multimeter.
That's useful. Thank you. Getting educated by the commenters is somehow typical of Sarah
Did anyone else get the joke about heat causing shrinkage? "usually it's the other way around". 🤣
Getting closer and closer to the goal. So nice to watch you working on all that.
1 million points for King of the Hill clip. Dammit Bobby.
"The Celica is coming back to life!"......lol ....love seeing little bits of it coming back on board.
I just can't get enough of the stuff you do :) Keep on keeping on !
Just to be serious for a change , this project has been really impressive to watch. I’ve always been scared of wiring and I’ve actually understood a lot and learned a few things too. 😊
@1:56 as a testicular cancer survivor, I approve.
Slowly coming together. Aka, real time. It's a pleasure watching you work. You're OCD is creating another badass automotive marvel.
Personally I just LOVE popcorning around the shop looking for a fire extinguisher after applying power. Well not really.
Awesome job as usual! Looking forward to the next episode!
Thank you for another informative and entertaining video. As a fellow (albeit much, much smaller) TH-camr, I really appreciate the time and effort you put into your content. I learn something every time I watch.
"First, get organised. Second, get it right the first time". A mantra I heard nearly every second day as an apprentice tool maker. The jobs we worked on were worth three years pay.
I love that t-shirt in the beginning. Taking the old school Toyota logo style and Vibe and making it your own. Mad respect, Sarah! ❤
Awesome progress and the most exciting time just around the corner. AWESOME job Sarah!
YOU ROCK and the fact that you say "I over complicate things in my head because I like to get it right the first time" is so awesome and a lost art by many. Keep up the great work!
The attention to detail is impressive.
Great, you're almost at the end of the wiring and everything's working so far.
Great SNT logo inspired by the old Toyota logo, Karen is talented, you too of course.
Its always great getting to the end of a wiring project thats been looming over you...😉👍
That's a shocking pun!
I can see what the draw was though 😃
@@tonysansom I usually don't get all amped up over Japanese cars. But Sarah's electrifying personality sure gets one charged up.
I have no flipping idea what you’re doing, but I’m trying to learn! This is priceless! Love what you’re doing! ❤
Spicy Robot Sausage is my new band name.
Bunta!!!
Love these detailed videos, as they showcase your knowledge and sense of work standards.
Your attitude and spontaneous ad libs are what sets you apart. I mean besides being Prior Air Force. 😁👍

You know no one can judge you, like you know no compromise, evidenced by the all of it, or even just 1 crimp. Anytime a friend wonders how to properly wire their vehicle, if even a simple ring termination, I refer them to one of your videos.
The right best ways to do wire cars, bikes, trucks, go carts, boats, are found in various Sarah -n- Tuned videos.
I’m in love with this car
I love it when you do more wiring. Love how you explain every aspect of what you are doing.
I always enjoy your video's. educational, inspiring and entertaining. Well done Sarah.
You are doing an awesome job.. Pipe down people you will learn something.
This is very educational. Learning and teaching can be fun.
I've never been this early, wooooo for long weekends!!
Excellent progress Sarah, watching this build come together is so exciting and now that it's finally spring here I get to go play in my garage with plenty of inspiration.
This build has been so cool
Mercedes, BMW, Audi all use AGM batteries. Which ARE made with a vent tube, and installed with a small hose to vent that outside (under) the car. AGM batteries blow off a lot less gas, but they DO blow off acidic fumes.
Well, dangitall! I guess my age is showing. Your dashboard seatbelt warning light confirms I was wrong when I said my '74 Celica didn't have one. Carry on young lady!
Normally I would run away from watching wiring videos but you make them interesting and enjoyable.
The fact that this car had a CB radio at one point is deeply correct.
It was a one owner car
Love the wiring
Many male fans got lost when Sarah was talking about nuts and straddling! Then came back round to hear about the celica
Right on! The electrical work you are doing is astounding. Loving it! Digging the battery relocation to the trunk.
Seeing you wire this project is fun and very informative.
One of the reasons I like watching the wiring videos is because you seem to really like doing that work and it comes across in your whole attitude - like watching anyone geek out about a thing they really like. :). Plus I had no idea how much wiring goes into a car - even an older model!
Another Great Video!!! I LOVE THIS BUILD!!! Your attention to detail is Outstanding!!! Best Always and in ALL WAYS, Chris Zinn
Fantastic job Sarah. Smartest girl no on the internet!
"That thing takes a lot of heat to shrink... usually it's the other way around!" 😁😁😁👍👌👏 I simply love this channel!
The hype for the seat belt light lol. I get this so much, I did the exact same thing when I rewired my Datsun and I got the parking lights and dash lights to turn on
Not wiring related, but I know the feeling. Once helped a co-worker get her dad's small food truck running again. Big ol' Chevy gasoline straight-six. Points, condenser, cap & rotor. Twisted the key, and "It's alive! IT'S ALIVE!!" like an old Frankenstein movie. 😆
You are incredible!! Custom wiring a car - love it!!
This 74 Celica is your Creation Sarah please handmake some sleeping front lights for it no one else has them !
As a fellow wirehead I can say that your wiring Kung Fu is strong! 🙂
I have a factory AGM battery and it’s vented. Replacement batteries have hole for the vent tube. Maybe they don’t need a vent hole and tube but they have a vent hole.
I don't know for sure, but my experience is the same as you. Maybe not all AGM batteries are the same structure.
Great job on the video Sarah! Thanks for making it.
I could watch you and your cars all day long.
This build needs to go to SEMA...
Nah, I don’t need to have a bunch of hands touching it and leaning against the paint.
