Awesome channel but I had to stop following them after they kept trying to push their drift taxi channel with sleazy thumbnails in the Garage54 community posts.
Sandro is a boss. honestly I don't care if donut media goes away as long as you keep real mechanic stuff around because Sondra and the boys and Sophia Angelina and the other girls are hilarious.
Sandro is a shadetree hack masquerading as a professional. Definitely would have had a brighter future if he'd never left that gang. Angela is the only tech in the whole bunch with a brain. Sophia is an airhead. Anyway, while they are telling me not to do what some idiot on Tik Tok did, they are also telling me not to do what they would do. From my perspective as an aerospace tech, Sandro is an accident waiting to happen. I have more business working on high performance cars than any of these people.
Please do a whole episode reacting to Garage 54 videos. They made pistons out of wood, they filled tires with cement, they've done basically every insane experiment you can think of
The "electrically tuneable magnetic suspension" discussed at 17:00 shows up at 18:00. Yeah, BOSE ... magnet riding on a sleeve .... add a cone and ya got a speaker. NOW, what if I could play the bass of my tunes through the magnetic suspension? GET ON IT!!!
@@DjDolHaus86 You got it. Make a fat-assed Cutlass twerk while the headlights jiggle! We have the technology. (former Rockwell, ABB, Schneider guy ... i'm TELLIN ya)
Yeah, the results of the aluminum crankshaft experiment were predictable. Might as well make it out of ramen. Hell, might as well make the entire motor one big ramen burger. You know the world is on the verge of collapse when some shadetree hack is carving wooden pistons.
I'm 60 years old. When I was a young teen, my father, a mechanic and diesel fitter, bought me an old junker XP Falcon (early 60s). He said to me, "Before you work on the motor or interior, make sure you get new tyres (tires), brakes, and sort out the suspension. That'll keep you alive longer." I've rebuilt a few cars since then and always started with those steps.
16:07 I've seen this guy before. He once took two Lada engines, cut off number one cylinder from one, and number four from the other, and then welded them together to make a Lada straight six.
@@totallynotamelon8094 Garage 54 is the only channel that have clickbait-looking titles that turns you to be exactly what you're going to get in the video.
That's what I was thinking. They also didn't point out it's not a permanent fix and you still need a proper patch or potentially new tire. Your next stop after using that godforsaken slime should be the tire shop, and you should come clean to them about what they used so the tech doesn't get splattered when they dismount the tire. Ask me how I know... 😅
@@YevhenRawrs You've clearly been that poor tech. I hadn't thought of that problem, as I figured it was designed to dry within a few minutes of air contact, but it does make sense that if it's still liquid it would make a mess.
I still remember my auto shop teachers telling us during my freshman year of high school to let the mechanic(s) working on our wheels know if we ever used any thing inside so they can prepare.
@@Razmoudah I'm sure it does harden over time, but it obviously takes a lot longer for _all of it_ to dry than it does for the bit needed to make the patch that allows you to inflate the tire up again. As a consistently broke boi myself, fix-a-flat has saved my ass so much money and time that I don't think any new info about it will ever change my opinion of it away from being anything other than a godsend. When you're unemployed and broke, but still need to be able to drive, it's an affordable fix compared to the minimum of ~$50-60 that you'd have to spend at a used tire shop. It can also save you from expensive towing fees. I'm embarrassed to say it, but I've actually driven a few tires now down to the cords by just applying a can of Fix-a-Flat each time it got a leak, and each time it gave the tire a solid 1-3 more _months_ of life.
@@Razmoudah nope, Slime stays soft, and it has a bunch of small rubber pellets in it(think like rubber sprinkles). The idea is the slime itself will slow the leak, until one of the rubber pellets finds it's way to the leak and trys to push it's way out and gets caught, or several stack on top of themselves and "seal" the leak. But it stays in the tire soft the whole time, and it is nasty to deal with.
I can actually believe Sandro popped in to show the boys his fuck up lmao. That's how you know these lot genuinely appreciate each other. For the boys!
Blind bois leading blind bois. RMS is just a bunch of hacks dishing on even bigger hacks. If any of them were competent, they'd be opening a shop, not making YT videos, which are only profitable if you are skilled at talking out your butt.
Garage 54 is solid crazy-go-nuts content. Bose active suspension has been copied / reinvented / developed by a bunch of other companies, and there are other active suspension technologies out there, but it's always too expensive for normal production cars. But I've seen insane tricks with it, cars that can jump over foot-high obstacles, stuff that makes a lowrider look like a bank vault.
A suspension mechanic will say the first thing to upgrade when you make more power is the suspension, but really almost everything on the car needs to be upgraded if its not already rated for the amount of power youre trying to make. If you upgrade the engine, the trans will fail. If you upgrade the trans, the driveshaft will fail. If you upgrade the driveshaft, the diff will fail. If you upgrade the diff, the axles will fail.
Especially brakes which the Mercury comet crash made painfully clear! (Except I'm sure that was also an example of pull over when something in the brakes is malfunctioning)
I think you guys should absolutely do some reactions to Garage 54.... The stuff they attempt is freakin' amazing... some successful...some not so... but fun either way...
Nio also bought some patents from Citroen regarding their hydropneumatic suspension, so the mix of those two (Hydractive + Bose) will be the perfect suspension ever created. I'm looking forward to it, as a previous owner of a car with Hydropneumatic suspension :D. And yes, you'll be able to drive fast with this suspension. The Xantia Activa is still the record holder in the moose test (the 2008 Porsche GT3 and 2017 McLaren 675LT didn't beat it)
Those magnets are going to pick up a TON of debris, like metal splinters, nuts & bolts, car parts, whole bicycles, other cars, ships in the harbor, etc.
Magnetic suspension could work with printed magnets. They can print a magnet with differing poles on the same face so they can tune the levels of attraction and repelling. I have a lock from a company that works with a twist to unlock. Really neat stuff.
@@Lurch-Bot I see, you're not impressed with the Miata from the video, the one we saw for 3 seconds, you don't like modifying Miatas in general if it affects the handling characteristics of the car, you don't want Bob Hall, who has shit all over bad Miatas in the past, to react to it and no Miata could ever be modified to the point where you would appreciate it - because it'll always be a Miata. You must be fun to hang out with.
I have a set of FEAL 442s (I think that's what they are) on my 92 AWD DSM. Good to see the owner of the company. Maybe I'll spend the money and have them rebuilt since they came with a car headed to partout. I learned (in school) that springs don't absorb energy. They just transfer the shock to the chassis at an "acceptable" rate. The shock "absorbs" the energy.
It's cool to learn that the shock absorbs energy and converts it to heat! Neat example of physics outside of the classroom. Same with refrigerator/air conditioning. I wish that they could have those examples in a class
I like the duct tape on the coil over threads idea but duct tape tends to leave a lot of glue behind when you peel it off which might be harder to clean off than some road grime. maybe if the threads are greased so the tape doesn't stick to them and its just wrapping around and sticking to itself?
That first clip is IMO a demonstration of "what will happen if we weld our worn-out shock absorbers solid?" Upside-down dampers have the advantage of less unsprung weight as the heavy part of it hangs from the top instead of standing on the lower control arm. If you want to go fast - that's what you want. Bilstein makes those. They last as long as other good-quality shocks. Depending on model and use - ~150,000mls.
little sad y’all didn’t cover the *Citröen* hydropneumatic shocks they built in the 1950s for the *DS* that is the most comfortable ride i’ve ever had in a car.
11:52 I drove an $800 Bonneville SSEi with blown shocks for about 7 years before I did the suspension recently. I could have bounced just like that car. Especially after gutting and making substantially lighter. I didn't drive it much if at all in the winter. It tried to unalive the driver enough in the summer. Keeps ya on your toes. Takes a lot of skill to not look like a drunk driver, especially if you get an officer behind you. When I did suspension I found out I was driving with a partially collapsed steering column for about 5 years. Still need to do the steering rack and inner tie rods. At some point go to the desert and find a rust free body.
There was only 2 people that rode in it. I generally wouldn't let anybody ride in it, and never would have let anybody else drive it. Normally only has the driver seat anyway.
Kia has a "mobility kit" in some models instead of a spare tire, it seems almost exactly like that "slime" kit that sponsored this video. Fatal flaw for the Kia kit for me was that the compressor stopped too soon (probably overheated since it was a hot summer afternoon) and so I couldn't drive it to mix the sealant around inside the tire and get it to plug the hole. It's a temporary fix even if it works, but it didn't work *at all* for me because of that. In hindsight having used it once now, I could have probably made it work even with that happening by just driving slowly on low pressure down the road so the sealant could reach the leak hole that happened to end up on the top of the tire when I parked... but I was close to an autozone so I just got a proper patch kit with those rubber twizzler lookin' things and it's held since! I know tire shops will tell you that the goop sealant stuff will basically melt the inside of the tire and ruin it, but since I ended up using a solid patch in the end mine is holding just fine until I can buy all new tires next month 😁 so at the very least it doesn't seem to destroy your tires *quickly* or anything. Now I've still got the mini air compressor from my car's kit and I put the leftover uses of the tire patch kit i bought into my trunk where the Kia "mobility kit" slime bottle originally was. Neither kit can fix sidewall damage so now it's just a better version that doesn't compromise the tire long term and actually works imo.
Not gonna lie, donut is still the same channel we all know and love. And to be perfectly honest… seeing new faces is kinda refreshing. I’m enjoying seeing more of Jimmy. He’s the type of dude I could just chop it up with for hours. Dude is funny
A random Sandro drop was just what I needed today. Jimmy's tennis ball jail killed me aswell 😂. When's Bob gonna see the Miata build? Top shelf boys 👌.
The Bose suspension didn’t make it to the mass market because of pricing (around $20k) and when it was developed, computers were too big to fit on the trunk of the car and connect all the sensors needed. Years passed and instead of using the suspension on cars, they ended up using it in a seat 💺… yes, a seat for trucks and it’s called Bose Ride. It’s a plug and play system for the big rig trucks that have air cushioned drivers seat.
If you want comfortable suspension say hello to Citroen. They use to like to do things differently. I've a Citroen Berlingo muiltspace front is yours typically MacPherson suspension but rear is torsion bar suspension. Then you've Citroen 2cv system apparently so smooth you could drive through a ploughed field with eggs in a basket and wouldn't break on also near impossible to overturn.
The Champagne glass demo reminds me of an old video of a Leopard 2(?) demonstrating its gun stabilization by carrying a stein of beer on a little platform attached to the cannon's muzzle as the crew bombed around the German countryside :P
really cool to see Nio continue developing on that magnetic suspension idea. i mean to me its kind of an impractical idea from the start, but its a cool idea and i wanna see more of it.
A friend and I used to play Grand Tourismo 2,back in the day. He souped up his Miata to the maximum. He then tells me,"I can't win races, even with this car". I looked,and showed him why. He had upgraded everything BUT the suspension!
If he could turn the magnet into super conductors he might actually be able to create a decent shock I imagine a good portion of the reason he did not the required cooling needed, I think liquid nitrogen is involved for the ability to freeze the magnet. Would definitely be interesting to see.
The bose suspension actually was deemed to be too expensive for cars, but not for truck and bus seats. So the seats that you see with suspension for the driver, that's what that is =D
For the tip on protecting the adjustment threads for adjustable coilovers, use teflon tape. Any tape that uses adhesive will release the adhesive over time and in heat. Super cool idea, and will definitely being using this.
Seeing a coil off an F250 punch a clean hole through a cinder block partition in the shop makes you really respect and considerate of stored mechanical energy.
"And noone else bought into it" -> Almost certainly wrong. The way this usually goes is that the Patent is gonna be sat on for a much too high price, or just kept locked away completely, so that the only units sold are *really* expensive. Only after the patent expires can tech truly grow, as mass market adoption and further R&D suddenly make manufacturing price fall.

Not gonna lie, donut is still the same channel we all know and love. And to be perfectly honest… seeing new faces is kinda refreshing. I’m enjoying seeing more of Jimmy. He’s the type of dude I could just chop it up with for hours. Dude is funny
A random Sandro drop was just what I needed today. Jimmy's tennis ball jail killed me aswell 😂.
When's Bob gonna see the Miata build?
Top shelf boys 👌.
Odi sounds like he knows his stuff.
That's awesome yall showed a Garage 54 clip. He does some of the most craziest tests I've ever seen....
Hey isn’t it that cool drift guy?
The Bose suspension didn’t make it to the mass market because of pricing (around $20k) and when it was developed, computers were too big to fit on the trunk of the car and connect all the sensors needed.
Years passed and instead of using the suspension on cars, they ended up using it in a seat 💺… yes, a seat for trucks and it’s called Bose Ride. It’s a plug and play system for the big rig trucks that have air cushioned drivers seat.
Every like on this comment can help Sandro into another shop 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Odi is the goat. Glad you got him on the show for this.
Garage 54 (magnet guy) is awesome. They explore crazy ideas!
If you want comfortable suspension say hello to Citroen. They use to like to do things differently. I've a Citroen Berlingo muiltspace front is yours typically MacPherson suspension but rear is torsion bar suspension. Then you've Citroen 2cv system apparently so smooth you could drive through a ploughed field with eggs in a basket and wouldn't break on also near impossible to overturn.
Week 8 of asking WHERE IS JAMES
He’s got his own show
SO HAPPY to see the Bose suspension making a come back.
I'd now love to see how it handles corners.
Gotta get Sandro more screen time. Over all great job guys
Sandro is always a pleasant surprise
we want more Sandro!
Garage54 great channel, the magnets guy
I'd love to see Bob react! 😂
"tennis ball jail".... 😂😂😂 Jimmy's getting good! 😂
I'm so glad you finally did a Garage54 Clip!
Man everyone got in on the party of this video. I was expecting Bob to magically appear out of no where, like he was summoned
17:40 - Lol, Citröen was already making suspensions do that 50 years ago! 😆
The Champagne glass demo reminds me of an old video of a Leopard 2(?) demonstrating its gun stabilization by carrying a stein of beer on a little platform attached to the cannon's muzzle as the crew bombed around the German countryside :P
surprise Sandro had me cheering, FOR THE BOYS!! Haha
Sandro dropping in was a treat
This has now become my favorite donut cast since the big break.
really cool to see Nio continue developing on that magnetic suspension idea. i mean to me its kind of an impractical idea from the start, but its a cool idea and i wanna see more of it.
Sandro owning a screw up makes him a legend!
Admitting you're an ignoramus isn't anything to admire. Something to admire would be Sandro going back to school and learning some physics.
Needed Juan to pop in after and say "See YOU screw up too!"
Sandro My Genius 🤣 Lovin the Greatest Honesty!!!! Sharing Laughter and Smiles to Brighten the world. Thanks 😊.
A friend and I used to play Grand Tourismo 2,back in the day. He souped up his Miata to the maximum. He then tells me,"I can't win races, even with this car". I looked,and showed him why. He had upgraded everything BUT the suspension!
Sandro coming out had me ear to ear smiling 😁
Neat to see some Donut hosts guesting Sandro and Angies channel!
Garage 54 does a lot of crazy things automotive.
If he could turn the magnet into super conductors he might actually be able to create a decent shock I imagine a good portion of the reason he did not the required cooling needed, I think liquid nitrogen is involved for the ability to freeze the magnet. Would definitely be interesting to see.
The bose suspension actually was deemed to be too expensive for cars, but not for truck and bus seats. So the seats that you see with suspension for the driver, that's what that is =D
For the tip on protecting the adjustment threads for adjustable coilovers, use teflon tape. Any tape that uses adhesive will release the adhesive over time and in heat. Super cool idea, and will definitely being using this.
Seeing a coil off an F250 punch a clean hole through a cinder block partition in the shop makes you really respect and considerate of stored mechanical energy.
Sandro needs to take over this show.
SANDRO!!!!!! THE GOAT IS IN!!!!
I love mechanics who shows off their own mistakes and laughs about it. 😂
I love videos like this where you can learn and have fun at the same time.
Seriously this is the best channel on youtube.
"And noone else bought into it" -> Almost certainly wrong. The way this usually goes is that the Patent is gonna be sat on for a much too high price, or just kept locked away completely, so that the only units sold are *really* expensive. Only after the patent expires can tech truly grow, as mass market adoption and further R&D suddenly make manufacturing price fall.
I like this show. I like Justin. I’ll keep watchin.
Garage 54 are the Gods of innovation y'all need to see the G wagon made of ice n the see through engine
