Finally! We've only been asking for more of the kei truck since it broke a few years ago. This is the kind of stuff that got me watching the channel in the first place. Please do more videos of builds and maybe less uneven match-ups on This Vs That (whoever has been booking the match-ups has been sleeping at the wheel).
@@jackmehoff8556 tell me you've never built an engine without telling me. Grease absolutely takes up space and we're talking the thickness of a couple sheets of paper for a spec. He's doing it wrong, period.
@@thethepete731100% with you about this guy not knowing shit about the ins and outs and Quirks to building rotary engines and even how they operate differently than regular piston engines in so many ways
3:15 we use petroleum jelly and atf for assemblies. We instructo or we prime every engine before starting so its lubed up fine on start. Then it breaks down easy and comes out on the break in oil change. Atf gets hot and helps wash out any dirt that got in during the build. Havent had a failure on start up yet.
Look at all the hell the Rotary Kei mystery machine went through probably 10 Burnout contest ON LIMITER. I'm not a rotary guy but for such a compact engine they work!
Watching hoonigan is like watching ads with some car content, first a TH-cam ad before the video then a hoonigan ad then another TH-cam ad then another hoonigan ad then another TH-cam ad to watch the end of the video
You’ll find a couple of less than stellar interactions on the forums. Nearly all of the fans seems to be from the social media stuff vs. direct customers. No idea what’s with the jabs but with any shop, do your due diligence.
@@glenhynes3593 word around the comment sections is they take high end parts off customer cars and use them for themselves or other builds they are commissioned for. Stealing from Paul to pay Peter kinda stuff. IMO their reliability isn't fantastic either. Cleetus and the Mystery Machine, Kei Truck, Adam LZ's 4 rotor Supra... probably more I cant remember... all blew up in one way or another
Bout damn time yall finally started to give the Kei truck some much needed love and attention. Yall beat the shit out of it and blew the engine then put it in the corner to rot away. Im excited to see the Kei Truck cleaned up and rocking a freshly rebuilt 13B. One of my favorite builds to date
What you talking about? They drove it like a na rotary should be if you want it to last as a skid thrasher, They only lost water seals they are not the same as blowing a head gasket the dude doesn't know how a rotary works Worst case will be hard starting takes a while for all water coolant to get pumped out to the exhaust so can ignite the fuel then it's algood just remember to top up water n change oil regularly. Still know that 3 of the cars used to take to burnout competitions and use as drift demons leaving black lines all over town when I got my licence in 2005 every day after work for 10years+ then used most weekends since,and they all have had no coolant seal's for magority of the time. 1 of em had to remember pull trailing spark plugs when putting away so all needed to get it going next time quick crank over put plugs in and fill water up and shes ready to go burn a couple set's tires off again , with the 12a grenade port singing from 9500>11000rpm . In reality I'm not exaggerating when I say that half or more of all the rotarys that were being driven daily or weekly around New Zealand back when fuel prices were $2.00 or less a litre, had bad coolant seal's. And most of them haven't been fixed and get taken out for car shows and so on Even though New Zealand is the rotary capital of the world, we have so many rotary powered vehicles that not every one is revered and idolized like in America where it's expected to be kept in good condition and has to be fixed if something isn't right, so we have show cars aswell as hacks that aren't cared for at all, and lots of weird swaps that make no sense like last week at gas station a 1992 Mazda 323 wagon with 13b semi PP greanade port fwd on 18"S with the loudest exhaust, apparently the owner got it for 3grand and it's there only car so it's a runner to get to work. Haha , you see cars like that all the time still even with fuel prices @ $3.50 litre for 95
Garage life?! I unintentionally visited this shop. OMG the rotary builds are amazing. I didn't get to film what sounded like a test session. These guys are nice and friendly. They allowed me to film a quick video even after they were closing.
Daniel came ALL the way from Japan for youz guys so DONT forget to run little 2 stroke oil in gas >always, the little factory mazda oil squirters are lacking in coverage in rotary engine causing premature rotor tip seals failure. 2 stroke Oil added to tank of fuel ensures full lubrication and makes it last alot longer (half ounce per gallon so around 8 to 9 ounces per tank of fuel ) .
I got a title for these style of videos. Hoonigans we did a thing. Hands down rotary engines are my favorite sounding engine mainly because there loud as heck and in a garage paddock you know exactly what it is when it starts up. Stoked for you guy's.
Bring back the old school crew, these dudes are hellla lame. They’re a bunch a try hards. The OG CREW were real AF, these dudes are actors! It’s nice to see that all of Dans hard work is paying off!
its great that the rotarys get the hate(im not an owner) but despite the owners not putting the oil in the tank or anything rebuilding doesnt look bad at all conpared to a usual block
It is hard to put that smoke back into the wire @18:30. There is nothing quite as frustrating as finishing someone else's project that you didn't start. Like unlabeled wiring and random bolts, hun times. 😂 #RightArm guys and a job well getting the Kei fixed and back to what it does best, slay tires!
I miss Suppy and Grim (and Danger Dan). 😢Their fabrications were next level and they were fun to watch.

@@drlewcifer6278 it’s weird because he’s Brians good friend .

So you're sayin' - Danger Dan did a good job originally fabing the Kei Truck. . nice to see this ripper back in action. .
Daniel’s hero arc is absurd.
Honestly ☠️😭
This is actually my favorite build of all time. My first intro to kei trucks, rocket bunny and the absolute legend who is Suppy.
same here, its so dope. i loved it so much that i built an rc car replica of it

@@boblee6173I just googled it. Poor business practices and possible scamming. Some court rulings officially on file against him. 🫨

Seems like we'll never get the good ol Hoonigans back, feels like they're too busy beefing with everyone.
Yet another collection of techs/mechanics that Hoonigan will use and discard.
If he's so good him and the Vargas Brothers should have a build off / rev limiter burnout contest

John moved back to the east coast where his family is, then down to Florida. They have a TH-cam that they post up on from time to time
Did Hoonigan swap new characters mid season and act like we all wouldn’t notice?
Lol. Who all the dudes be?
Love it! This feels like the hoonigan content I've been missing, seems like it's all poorly matched drag races and road trip vlogs now. Thanks guys!
yeah this v that suxks
Thanks Cody 🎉
It's funny, seeing the young guys do the work. Almost feels like a fever dream lol.
Bringing back all the broken projects sounds great
Mr. Daniel is a real high energy guy!
Daniel has a real serial killer vibe, and I love it. Broken rotaries been keeping him out the news for a long time😂
I miss Dan and soupy and Alex I wish hoonigan could afford the dream team
People have been asking for it and it’s finally back. Nice to see the Kei truck up and running again
Dan and suppy made a sick truck.
Damn, kinda disappointed the Vargas bros didn’t rebuild the rotary 😢

Daniel put all his skill points in dexterity and intelligence but left charisma at 1pt
I love the Kei truck. Even more than I love the donk which is crazy considering I'm from Florida. And the rotary surgeon Daniel is so calm 😅
i love how when theres a loud car Zac just magically appears XD
I’d be driving that thing to work EVERY DAMN DAY! 🔥💜
So happy it is finally up and running and it’s literally because of a rotary boi! 💪🏼
This video was awesome lol. Kei truck content plus some great chemistry in the video, tons of fun to watch.
It’s probably my favorite car ever built on any thing I’ve ever seen car related 😮
miss papa suppy tbh, just wanna see him again
About time the kei rotary came back to this channel, its your star
This goes out to the homies hert, Dan and soupy.
Mr Daniel sounds like a true magician 😊
Lets Goooo! Im so ready to hear this Rotory again! Thanks Cody
Imagine your specialty is rotory 😂 bout as useful as morris code now
DK is the MAN!! Saves rotaries and saves lives.
I had wondered what happened to this. Nice to see it back running
It's good to see Anthony Fantano helping to install the engine
Suppy and Grimm were fired so other shops could do the hoonigans work.
Should change the channel to hoonigan outsourced.
Is this true?

As a machinist yes you can easily stretch a bolt like he says. Creates a lot of friction having the the threads run together.
20:10 Ron that was the best one liner 😂
Ahhh, they took a shot at Vargas with the torque sequence. lol 🤦♂

The ratchet as and alignment tool is CRAAAAAAAAZZZZZYYY
I refuse to believe Rotary Daddy Vargas put the wrong parts in a rotary 🤣
Sambar next! Oh wait, there's no employees that can do stuff anymore.😞
Most unbelievable part of the episode is 14:10. When Scotto says something he owns is working...
Black Shirt Brigade in full effect this episode. Nice work fellas.
Scotto: I wish my VR86 sounded like this.
Audience: we wish it made noise.
Thank you for posting a Kei Truck video today. It made me happy as a Hoonigan!
New guys being funny and helpful reviving the kei truck hell yeah buddy i love it
"can you do a magic trick" That had me laughing. Gary Gary Gary. Don't ever change Gary.
I love the kei truck. I really do. But it does need an exhaust, maybe a turbo
Wasn’t Vargas the initial builder of this motor?
Put some long tuned Exhaust on that beasty LOL. Happy to see it back up and running. Show us his FC. ;)
FINALLY you guys brought back my 2nd fav hoonigan build of all time! 2nd only to the shart kart
I do love the casual 3-Rotor just chilling there during the introduction. One day i will mess with the doritos.
9:35 It's a Ford 8 inch, not an 8.8. Basically a scaled down 9 inch.
Someone please tell SCOTTO that those damn funyun flavored lays chip ARE THE BOMB!!!!!!!😮THANKS FOR THE RECOMMENDATION!!!!!FACTS!!!!
3:06 - The old Hayes book saving our ass's for 100 hundred years!
Amazing build 🙌 love to this around the uk 🇬🇧
never fails when a car turns on and everyone comes out to investigate
Bring back the old school crew, these dudes are hellla lame. They’re a bunch a try hards. The OG CREW were real AF, these dudes are actors!
It’s nice to see that all of Dans hard work is paying off!
One thing I learned through the 4 rotary engines I've built is, use OEM parts.
Yall thought we'd forget that it was Danger Dan that did the original work on this awesome lil K...
Hey yo...so like this Dan guy is totally giving me Quentin Tarantino's character in From Dusk 'til Dawn vibes.
Just don't piss him off guys!
😅
But what happened to angel motorsports? Why isnt he working on it?
🗣️ “garage garaage” -Danger Dan voice
Ya boi's, I love when other people know about the orange locktite 🤘 I use it on locks and doors that get abused
Woke up the whole building 😂😂thank you Cody… hope I spelled your name right
Car so loud that when its start it summons the chopmaster himself, Zack
Thank you Cody in the comments.
Really hope the K truck gets a proper 2 into one exhaust & intake with longer runners and less plenum volume.
love to see this thing back
its great that the rotarys get the hate(im not an owner) but despite the owners not putting the oil in the tank or anything rebuilding doesnt look bad at all conpared to a usual block
