Sorry - I fail to see how sticking a comic on your wing is "pushing the boundaries"....

I have some respect for these guys because of the hands on approach, but this car sucks teh hairy balls, and only appeals to honda fanbois it seems

i think people missed the point of this car. Marty & Moog's season finale builds are always built with a certain amount of piss-taking (literally Moog's case) and satire. Just look at the TRD Laser and their Civic build.

In this case, the satire is less obvious because this is the fashion nowadays. But you can see the guys aren't taking this thing too seriously. Look at Moog constantly saying this is "what the kids are doing" and "the internet told me to" throughout the episode.

I'm still hoping for a final season eposide where they build the ultimate bogan commodore...

Would be pretty easy & cheap to do I reckon.

1) Buy cheap VN commodore

2) Chop the springs

3) Buy a set of 20"chromes from bob jay for the back + retain a set of factory steel wheels for the front

4) Buy some clear tail lights off + Unit/Skin etc etc sticker off ebay

5) Drill some holes into the exhuast for that epic V6 noise

6) Add the chev bage at the back (leave holden badge on front) for the final touch...

Any other steps I missed?

The chromies should be on the front of the VN with stockies on the rear for crazy single peggers or if you want to be a pro drifter welded diff for when you want to enter it in the D1GP

Thank you, I couldn't be bothered trying to explain it but you have done it for me.

I really enjoyed this episode and MCM is by far my fav channel on youtube

I disagree. There were elements of satire in there but their closing comments and interviews lead me to believe that they thought that build was cool. They then add a bit of satire to the program so they can sit on the fence, see peoples reactions and if many people hate it MCM say they were just taking the piss. Episode is fail.

I like the fact they are from the area I grew up in and as a previous poster said the DIY aspect of MCM is great but they destroy cars that a young fella on his Ps would love and modify. Hacking a Subaru Vivio in half was a travesty. I would love one of them right now.

Pffft... At least there not getting drunk and wrapping them around poles. Do you have any idea how many second hand cars there are in the market?? They are entertaining hundreds of thousands of people and using a few cars out of the millions on the road.

Quite a few of their cars have been sold onto new owners who absolutely love them.

    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk
