Who else wants Josh to become a permanent part of Car Throttle ?
Sign me in!!! He is hot shot!
He might be at this rate.
Yes. That’d be amazing
@@DuBstep115 no u
Only if he brings his beatbox
Josh needs to be on carthrottle more often
His knowledge of rotary engines is simply incredible.
Yeah hes funny as fuck tol
Too
I dont wanna like ur comment because it has 666 likes
does he have a yt channel ? If not he must start one ASAP
It wouldnt be "working on cars" if something didnt go wrong!
Didn't know a car king would watch a car guy 😋
I would have done it just for fun.
Did you see that Alex is getting bigger and I mean that phone in his pocket?
E
@@kysrussiansandindians0 ChrisFix has featured on one if not more of the Car Throttles videos... Both are great channels.
There are 2 types of tuner
1.tuning for hrsprs
2."I want flame at my exhaust"
I like #hrsprs
why not both xD
Both is best!
Both is good.
What's hrsprs?
Josh is a natural on camera, genuinely funny... hope to see plenty of future videos with him!
Josh is the new Edd China, isn't he?
Tall, knows stuff and has a bodge job car. Yup
Haha yes!!!!
He's a natural at being on Camera.
igen xd
Hell yeah
Josh's impression is the best rotary I've ever heard
That’s hella tru
How to buya decent example of an RX8 for decent money:
- buy crap RX8 with shot engine for nothing
- spend a few thousand quid on engine rebuild, remap and bits
- ...
- PROFIT!!!
And it's not even a sarcasm. Nice series, keep it up!
Works for 996s too.
Pedro Venda 996s are Porsches, not rotary, not Mazda
Help me! My fiance bought rx8 and has spent way too much trying to fix it. It's currently sitting in our yard not running.
Erika Speck sounds about correct
I have a nice one no wrecks with 70k on a dealer installed new short block at 66k, been in dry storage since heart failure, silver on black 6 speed needs to go.
thank god someone is keeping rotarys alive in the uk
amy wong
You should thank the engaged people who won't give up these beautiful engines.
Amen
Welcome back to another video of living at rotary revs
AAHAHAHA you made my day bro
Honestly I can't remember how I found this channel but I'm so glad I did. Love your work 🤘🏻
Sweet, cheers!
Met Josh at autosport, and I can confirm he is a legend, a tall, dark legend :)
It actually sounds sick for stock exhaust
I believe the rear section is not stock. Someone just cut off the tips that came on the exhaust system. It's a racing beat muffler back there or something. They pointed that out during the inspection of the undercarriage
Doesn't have a cat either I think
Aftermarket exhaust
De-cat exhaust
Chico's Garage I don't think it's all stock dude......But it does sound awesome!
You should hire Josh to work at Car Throttle
Extremely knowledgeable, good on camera, a bit odd too - he'd be perfect.
yea hes great
Considering how much Snap On is coating the whole shop I'm not sure they could afford him
He'd be better appreciated by just doing guest appearances. He's a rotary specialist and not everyone likes a screaming rotary
Should be a guest regular or get his own youtube channel
Liked video for Josh chilling in the engine bay making rotary sounds
Following and enjoying this series. I have a much loved Spirit R RX8. Learning heaps and confident I’ll have this car in my life for many years to come. Thanks Car Throttle and Rotary Revs!
rotary revs please start a channel! i'm hoping to see more stuff failing on the rx8 just to see content with you guys xD
No offense to Alex, but I totally agree. RIP his bank account, but long live rotary revs
Check out the Motorsport and Performance UA-cam vids for more josh and d action...
@@citizenx7695 CarThrottle definitely ain't short of money.
Alex you and Josh work great on camera together, get him involved in other stuff after this series 👍👍
Yes !!!
Loving this series, always been interested in rotary even though I’m not the best mechanically, the knowledge of these guys at rotary revs is just awesome. So good to see people so enthusiastic about a specific type of car.
Been following this series for a while now it’s inspired me to start a UA-cam on my car! Keep up the good work guys!!
*That Car is gonna be **_Lit!_*
Lit than Justin Y.
its not a ferrari
on fire
totally lit
LITerally
I love these guys.
Their passion, you can see it in their eyes and the way they talk.
And they're having fun at their jobs. Thats extremely important.
I close every episode with a smile when you and them do something crazy.
Josh has made these videos so great! Keep up the series, It's one of the best.
This is the best series you guys have put out by far. Josh and the guys at Rotary Revs seem amazing at what they do.
Can’t wait to see the Doug Score after the tuning
Woah, first we've gotta see all the neat quirks and features of the RX-8
10/100 because it doesnt have divorce monitoring
Alex should start wearing two t-shirts
To know my thoughts on the RX8 click the link below in AUTOTRADER.COM/OVERSTEER
@@joeymt9215 before that we need to use soapy water and towels
joshs rx8 looks dope af can we get a vid on it
Awesome video, great banter. The guys from Rotary Revs seem top notch guys! Really enjoying the series!
Yess more Josh. More rotary. And finally all the braps. All the time.
Whenever I see a new car throttle video I'm just like screaming YAAAASSS
ttv BTW Same.
Looking forward to it every friday! Before i go to sleep, a nice project video from car throttle gives me sweet dreams👌
@@zude5623 Dude, you don't have to be rude to people who can do whatever they want without you controlling their life.
ttv BTW dido
Josh is a legend🙌🏼
Flames are the best!!!! Keep making awesome content bro! You’re a huge inspiration for me and my channel!
This guys are brilliant - great to see people having fun while at the top of their game. well done lads... kinda want an RX8 project now
HAHAHA josh !! you legend haha. ''we have read the comments'' loved it !
7:42
- Is that what, a fuel pump?
- Meehbeh
hahahah this cracked me up. ta
Bring Josh into Car Throttle, let him work on every car you own man this is non-negotiable
Loving this series! Keep it up!
I came here as fast as the apex seals that alex put are gonna fail
LOL
Corny
following josh's recommendation, keeping the oil topped up and adding 2stroke oil to fuel, those apex seals will last quite some time.
Dude, those two are hilarious. Surely a few more future series can involve them both, especially Josh!
If you put Felix's rotary in Phil would it be called Phelix
M4R10 Simo this is like the worst thing ever. People pronounce my name like this and it makes me wanna kms 🤣
Awesome content look forward to the next episode
I want CT to go to strictly rotary so Alex can just hang out with those guys all day they are hilarious!
I support this idea for several non RX-7 fanboy reasons... yeah I think he bought it.
We love that northern bastard Josh 8:39 xD
This series is the best
Can't wait to see it on the road👌👍
Why i love these series so much keep it up
Josh you rock!
By far one of the best and most in depth car builds on UA-cam at the moment. So excited for each new episode! Keep it up and videos coming
Josh is back! Yes! Well done!
Another awesome video, loving this series.
Bought myself an rx8 a few days ago and can't wait to do some videos on it.
Josh the Rotary Doctor!
Josh is awesome
Enjoyed these vids, these boys really know their stuff
Amazing series!!! Rotary Revs guys are legends. Super super informative last episode as well.
The world needs a Josh/Ed China collaboration
Rotary revs seem like top lads! More of them please 😊
Excellent series Alex. Rotary is the dark arts. So it's good to see these guys working magic. As you say they are very good on camera too.
The video's are really great and i enjoy watching this series. Continue the good work guys
When the smaller mechanic took about 5 minutes to explain in great detail what he was going to do, you could see Alex's eyes glazing over, not knowing what the fuck he was talking about. "Yeah but what about the flames??" Haha. Loving this series! (Former RX-8 owner here.)
I didn’t know that tidbit about semi-synthetic vs full-synthetic and burning vs carbon buildup. Interesting
Steven Barnette really only applies to rotaries
@@Cooperdaleit and old diesels
Yeah it can be a big problem. Gotta remember the OMP squirting engine oil into the combustion. I still use straight mineral on my 13B.
So why is modern 2 stroke oil fully synthetic? Or is four stroke oil specifically made to not burn
@@obbezwiers .. Fucking good question. Lol.
Keep on the series love it!!!
This video is awesome. The guys clearly know what they're doing, they're doing it well and having a lot of fun doing it. Life goals
YESSSSS
Great videos. We do love josh!
Came for rotary, stayed for josh❤️
Luv this series, dont u dare stop now boyzz. Cya next week!
The guys at Rotary Rev's are a blast! Keep bringing them back!
Love the videos with this guys
I saw Josh at the Auto sport international show. Too scared to meet him tho lol.
Ahhh, he would he would have loved you saying hi!
Thumbs up for Josh, such a good mechanic! Also such a fun dude!
Loving the show guys.
This is a great channel.. Well done
The videos take too long to come out !!!!! 😭 LOVE IT !!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Haha Rob Dahm feels the same, and same issue. But looks nice so far! And love rotary revs hope they get featured in more vids after this series!
These guys are very funny and very informative. I hope you are enjoying them as well
I am loving the rotary updates bro!
Yessss Josh is back! (We love you too Alex)
But i dont want to wait another week :(
hey man that's a really nice season.
I own a rx8 by myself and working in a mazda garage.
these guy's from rotary revs are really nice. 😁
go on like this.👍
best brapping regards from switzerland.
Was waiting for this video 🔥
Probably we love Josh because of his height...
Just joking... right?
Anyway is a good day every time you guys upload, Thank You!
Petition to get Josh employed by CT as a presenter?
Best series you've ever done! Loving it
Im glad you acknowledged how much your fans loved josh. Hes cool as hell. I like them engine noises while he was in the engine bay lol. And hes got a eary eye look when smirking that i find cool and evil lol. Good luck on that rx8 man
We need more with Rotary Revs, both dudes!
0:59 walked straight into that wall 😂
These guys are seriously absolutely awesome.
I am loving the series and josh is absolutely amazing, he needs to become part of car throttle
More Josh please
Josh needs to be a member of CT..
Josh is just the best! What a magnificent team!!
What a cool group of people, good series!
The end though!
Just yes
Can Josh be your permenant replacement???
:o
@Air haha cheers man! Will have a proper look at it tomorrow!
That's hot
That's real hot
Loving the series!! Cant wait for the next episode!
I don't even own a car and i ended up on this video completely randomly but it was so satisfying and interesting to watch so all of the sudden i realized i'd watched it all :D What an awesome mechanic that guy was also. I wish i'd have a mentor like that and learn what he does
Josh reminds me of Moog from Mighty Car Mods for some reason!
That'll be the teeth. Nothing wrong with them, just very similar in the dental department!
Will this fit in my Mazda?
3:22 race extention.. I don't know what it is.. But I want it!
I'm not familiar with the term, but from context it's a type of porting (sounds like a cross between Street Port and Bridge Port - no bridge, but larger exhaust?)
@@logicalChimp I feel like your explaining a half bridge.. I think its beyond a full bridge hence the term "RACE EXTENSION!!“ (heavy metal music plays)
@@Dan_AYP Hmm _ I thought that he said it didn't have an actual bridge, but the primaries were extended (like a street port), and the exhaust was also heavily ported... but like I said before, I don't know and was just trying to infer from context :D
@@logicalChimp I have no idea either haha. That's what's so annoying! Hopefully we'll have one to look at before the rx8s all rust away.
Great video! Awesome dyno cell, hub dyno it’s the best way to tune any engine. Congrats
genuinely a marvelous Rebuilt job on a Mazda RX-8 You guys are professionals specially how Josh gave a complete tour of the rebuilt God Bless
More Josh, please.
Also, is he big, or are you small?
TRENDING!
YESSSSSSS!!!
Number 3!!!!!!
My Grandad was on the engineering team for that original Rotary. I never got to know him, but seeing videos like this and how much people love the engines make me feel closer to him
I absolutely love this. Hope this goes on to like 20 episodes..
