I don't think most people understand how much manual labor it takes to make plugs and molds. Hats off to you guys. Love the channel and builds. You and Tofu Auto Works makes my skin itch with sanding dust. LOL.
Most people have ZERO clue about how our world and the truly insane logistics that support modern life functions. Along with how many folks(mostly men. Have to go to work every single day rain or shine light or dark no matter the conditions just to keep society functioning. 👍🏻
The lord has blessed us once more. This car is looking fabulous and the progress on the car is great and to think people said that you'll forget about it
You guys are such beasts, doing this entire project over the last several months and editing the videos and releasing them in a tight schedule. That’s a ton of upfront work!
V-weave, stabilized carbon, but no Liquid Death? C'mon guys. I get more excited seeing everything come together... Really looking forward to seeing all the finishing touches after SEMA too!
Been this channel since the OG days and gotta say the elevation of builds, videography, SFX etc is nothing short of epic, hands down fav channel! slightly sad this build content will be slowing after SEMA but cant wait to see what yall get into next!
@@elijahherman yes I do thanks. Imo it could be edited together more smoothly. Which is what I said. And the merch plugs could be better executed as well. Both would grow their channel&profits. Keeping the business alive. 👍🏻
This project is amazing. Could you, in the end when it's completed, give a rough estimate how many hours went into it and how much you spent on materials?
love seeing the progress on this car, it's gonna be amazing. wish I was still in Vegas so I could go see it in person at SEMA easily, but the car world is a small world so hopefully i'll see it sometime!
I'll be bummed when this series finishes. It seems like the progress is happening so fast but the amount of hours it takes to do any one of those parts is crazy. It's cool to see the hyper speed version, 'let's make this', boom, done. 😮. if only it were that easy irl
Looking forward to picking up some of those rotalock bond-in fasteners from you guys. You're not kidding about them being hard to find. Nobody that makes them will sell them to individuals. It's all "have your sales department call us to order 50,000 of them"
Even tho 9v is the max, you should drop it down to 8.5 for safety and longevity reasons. And you should consider putting a switch somewhere to have it go from 5v to 8.5v whenever you actually want the fast charge. Even tho they say "we've figured fast charge" the truth is it's still a very demanding action for batteries so you don't always want to peak charge it with FC. To solve this, you could use an Arduino setup (micro arduino, or even a bare chip) to switch between the two using a touch sensor hidden somewhere on the dash. So essentially have a sketch where you touch the sensor, and it switches to FC from what's a normal 5v. Also, a suggestion for the cup holders, inside, using two "pringle" shaped wedges, you could have a sprung mechanism that adjusts to the size of the item you put in there and keeps it stable. Like the "pringles" could come out of the cup with two lips over (so you can easily put stuff in) and with a metal strip as a spring, push inwards. The metal strips could be that metal that comes with pallets to secure stuff. It's very springy.
What are your thoughts on laminating fiberglass and carbon together. Ive had people tell me not to due to different cooling/heating rates and flexibility. I'm curious if they're being overly dramatic or not.
Lots of work, lots of itch, but at the end of the day, you're left with something you can genuinely puff up your chest for and be proud about. Awesome car this will be!
I find it weird when car guys build a car and then say they won't drive it in the rain out of fear of short circuiting electronics because they didn't do something like they should've.
Well I know it sounds selfish but it will suck when you finish this as there will be a lag until the next project and at that point I won't have a video series I look for each day.
Structural cf would likely involve an autoclave and dry weave honeycomb for the frame. The cost involved to build a pressure heat chamber that size sadly leaves it out of reach for small shops and hobbyists 🙁
it’ll be a mixture of both if i’m not mistaken. one thing i learned over the years is to never doubt tim lol. he knows balance when it comes to building 😂
I feel as though there may have been a missed opportunity with the name Legacy, instead calling it the LegaZ. Anyways, keep on keeping on! Love the vids! You guys are great!!
I think the big difference is the size and continuity of pieces, as well as the structural use. A lot of these are basically vanity panels, and a bunch of smaller pieces. The fe32 is a one piece monocoque
Dude your skill set has grown incredibly over the few years I’ve been watching. When you make it look this easy, it’s just INSANE. Are you going to take on customer cars for custom carbon work? If so how do we get a hold of you? Through your shop?
I’ll be the voice of opposition to what’s looking like the early consensus. I’ve seen enough Banditos videos to know I’m never gonna do anything this complicated with carbon fiber, so I’m stoked on how these videos are coming in hot and fast and just covering the basics. I want to see this thing done ASAP. There are a ton of other in depth videos on this channel covering the same build processes. Keep ‘em coming like this! This build series is seriously fun. Oh, and I hope the Ford FE32 is the next one up.
Bro less talking more work and see how that helps there is way too much unnecessary talking trust me do that and these videos will be more easier to edit an more work will get done
@@StreetBandito oh yeah, for sure. I was just curious because you said you wanted it to be street legal. And I'm low key starting to wonder if the odometer thing is the same as mattress tags 😅
I don't think most people understand how much manual labor it takes to make plugs and molds. Hats off to you guys. Love the channel and builds. You and Tofu Auto Works makes my skin itch with sanding dust. LOL.
man what, its insane how many hours go into it lol. I think they are custom to the itch now
Most people have ZERO clue about how our world and the truly insane logistics that support modern life functions. Along with how many folks(mostly men. Have to go to work every single day rain or shine light or dark no matter the conditions just to keep society functioning. 👍🏻
Both do amazing work. I don't know what they have against gloves though.
(I'll put on a *raincoat* for sanding urethane foam!)
might have missed it...but do you use any stabilized fibers in this build?
first thing tim talked about in the intro lol
@@StreetBandito what about V-weave though?
R/whoosh
Glad to see y’all back at it! Been loving this build series, can’t wait for the final product.
Appreciate it!
I still randomly laugh about Will with the knees 😂
lmao we all await his return
Now I'm laughing about Will with the knees 😂
Will does still have the knees daily
Also, if any of y'all are looking for a good drinking game, take a shot every time Tim drums his fingers on something 😂
lmao someone going to end up might drunk
The lord has blessed us once more.
This car is looking fabulous and the progress on the car is great and to think people said that you'll forget about it
haha ayeee, glad you like it. people tend to doubt when they think something is unachievable haha.
Keep taking about the hallowed stabilized fibres.
tim is addicted lol
God damn this is all so amazing. Love your work.
You guys are such beasts, doing this entire project over the last several months and editing the videos and releasing them in a tight schedule. That’s a ton of upfront work!
glad you understand 🖤
So Sick. Dream Build.
X always finding the best music for the build montages
V-weave, stabilized carbon, but no Liquid Death? C'mon guys. I get more excited seeing everything come together... Really looking forward to seeing all the finishing touches after SEMA too!
I expected Liquid death to be used to demonstrate the cup holders
for the cup holders, making a small 3d printed TPU insert would make them nicer for smaller bottles etc. Loving the build. Good work.
Honestly can’t wait to see the finished product.
only 1 more episode away and itll be revealed before sema.
Me and the boys drink every time you say stabilized carbon fiber tbh had a great night bud
sure you get pretty hammered by time the vids over 😂
@@StreetBandito lmao absolutely
Been this channel since the OG days and gotta say the elevation of builds, videography, SFX etc is nothing short of epic, hands down fav channel! slightly sad this build content will be slowing after SEMA but cant wait to see what yall get into next!
Man I hope these guys blow up after SEMA🤞🤞
Me to, hire a better video editor and square away the merch stuff. Beef up the socials and maybe even offer some sick 3d printed bolt on parts?
@4literv6 their editor is great already buddy do you have eyes?
@@4literv6i really like the editing style though
@@elijahherman yes I do thanks. Imo it could be edited together more smoothly. Which is what I said.
And the merch plugs could be better executed as well. Both would grow their channel&profits. Keeping the business alive. 👍🏻
Where’s knees with the Will ?!
the world may never know
I really appreciate how real your show is and non drama compared to other shows on youtube. Keep up the awesome work!!
We get it Tim...The carbon is stabilized...;)
lmao he’s obsessed
STABALIZED CARBON
This project is amazing. Could you, in the end when it's completed, give a rough estimate how many hours went into it and how much you spent on materials?
we plan on it
Should definitely be called "Lega-Zee"
Needs some more v-weave in the center and stabilized carbon-fiber cup holders.
definitely need a super sturdy cup holder to put your supersize coke
he definitely not fitting any gulp-zied cups in there lol.
@@StreetBandito Not without the proper v-weave in the center and stabilized carbon-fiber cup holder adapters.
It's funny because I made the above comment 2 minutes into watching the video. Then I saw the rings in the top of the tunnel. lol
love seeing the progress on this car, it's gonna be amazing. wish I was still in Vegas so I could go see it in person at SEMA easily, but the car world is a small world so hopefully i'll see it sometime!
Dang its gonna be an epic build... 😮
I'll be bummed when this series finishes. It seems like the progress is happening so fast but the amount of hours it takes to do any one of those parts is crazy. It's cool to see the hyper speed version, 'let's make this', boom, done. 😮. if only it were that easy irl
On this episode of stabilized carbon the world
😂
No Liquid Death in the cupholder?!
C'mon guys, you were so close to that sponsorship deal 😂
Oh, now we're getting luxury up in this Legacy, some wireless chargers... some cup holders... AC?!
Looking forward to picking up some of those rotalock bond-in fasteners from you guys. You're not kidding about them being hard to find. Nobody that makes them will sell them to individuals. It's all "have your sales department call us to order 50,000 of them"
but wait… can we really call it a Sema build without using any *STABALIZED CARBON* 🤔

I basically want to go to SEMA just to see this car in person. AMAZING work! 👍
Is there any room for a "Gas" pedal with that bulge in the center console? Even if there isn't amazing work! :D I love watching the progress.
What are your thoughts on laminating fiberglass and carbon together. Ive had people tell me not to due to different cooling/heating rates and flexibility. I'm curious if they're being overly dramatic or not.
Amazing stuff, though I was wondering why have a rollbar for a streetcar?
Amazing what a thousand man-hours backed by years of experience can achieve.
Lots of work, lots of itch, but at the end of the day, you're left with something you can genuinely puff up your chest for and be proud about. Awesome car this will be!
Stay away from Altima's 😂 it is a unwritten rule that you have to smash your Altima up within 30 days of taking ownership 😂😂
Looking clean af
"How much carbon fiber sheet would you say it took to make this build?" "All of it."
I find it weird when car guys build a car and then say they won't drive it in the rain out of fear of short circuiting electronics because they didn't do something like they should've.
Well I know it sounds selfish but it will suck when you finish this as there will be a lag until the next project and at that point I won't have a video series I look for each day.
!ACURA INTEGRA! What a good first car
For the next build make these parts structural, not just covers and aesthetic 👍
Structural cf would likely involve an autoclave and dry weave honeycomb for the frame. The cost involved to build a pressure heat chamber that size sadly leaves it out of reach for small shops and hobbyists 🙁
“Go to cars and coffee? Where you gonna put your coffee?” 🤘😭 I have one in my z! 😆
What material are you using for your “mud”? It seems like it’s been several different materials over time.
Still saying fenderist lmao
lmao i was saying it all day that day.
Please do a matching upholstered center armrest cushion. Another one of those “annoyances” I bet you are gonna want as a daily
Refreshing my injectors while watching this. The boys are going strong
Another great video my guys, I had a 94 Integra with 2 10's loved that car. never got around to the 12's. lol
the real OG's was part of the integra gang. I had 2 of them growing up myself.
@@StreetBandito I miss it, I can't believe how much they cost now! Looking forward to the next video!
The red layer being the tooling gel coat negative? What product do to use? Looks easy to spray coat with it as well as paint on.
Yo I put two 12” subs in my first car, which was also an Integra 😂😂
Y’all got the molds to do a full set of Z-car body panels, as in a full body, for a tube frame car, yet?
Is that light coming through the corners of the transmission tunnel? Does that effect its integrity?
Always 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Bandito type shit 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
I need those cupholders for my centre console. Did you make them or buy them done?
You're not going to make any drain holes just in case water does get into the deeper part of the interior panels?
you guys need to clean that shop, its dirty as heck, not good for your health.
I love the diy till i die attitude and i want to do this when i have a project car too! Such inspiration
Awesome skills and tally evident here 👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Are you using stabilised carbon in this build???? I had no clue, you should tell people these things.... 😂
tim has only talked about it non stop in the past couple videos lol
Wh
at ever happened to that other carbon car project you guys hade
Manual labor and hell of money in materials.
Nohairs
back in action lol
time to do a roll call and assemble the boys
best build on youtube.
do a panoramic roof
I cannot wait to see the finished car for SEMA
Let's watch the long form of these videos
It's getting close, cant wait to see this thing moving.
What’s your power steering setup?
So excited! Can't wait to see the car in person!
But how much are you in on epoxy? 😅🤔💸?
I figured you would do a carbon fibre dash as well instead of upholstered. Or at least the dash shell in carbon and upholstered accents/trims
it’ll be a mixture of both if i’m not mistaken. one thing i learned over the years is to never doubt tim lol. he knows balance when it comes to building 😂
#GangGangGang🤙
assemble!!!!!
On your left Captain 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Amazing work, I’m proud of you guys and can’t wait to see how this project turns out. Electric swap JDM cars the new Era
I feel as though there may have been a missed opportunity with the name Legacy, instead calling it the LegaZ. Anyways, keep on keeping on! Love the vids! You guys are great!!
so you can now do it like fiberglass? no vacuums molding or baking?
I think the big difference is the size and continuity of pieces, as well as the structural use. A lot of these are basically vanity panels, and a bunch of smaller pieces. The fe32 is a one piece monocoque
Never stop talking about stabilized carbon! Thanks for showing all your processes. This is information a lot of people don't like to share. Big ups!!!
Thank you for posting this!
Dude your skill set has grown incredibly over the few years I’ve been watching. When you make it look this easy, it’s just INSANE. Are you going to take on customer cars for custom carbon work? If so how do we get a hold of you? Through your shop?
A 280 with 240 parts.. So its a 260!
Cup holders for the win!

I definitely want to see the further development of this car after sema! I hate when I watch a sema build but never see it again!
we have more stuff to do post SEMA haha
Steel It paint is the best!
Great video again gents!! cannot wait to see this finished, going to be amazing.
Out of interest, how many parts can you make from a mold?
Bro less talking more work and see how that helps there is way too much unnecessary talking trust me do that and these videos will be more easier to edit an more work will get done
I anoint you armchair QB MVP
Loving the tunes! Some crazy accomplishments have been made with this project :D
Love this build. I really enjoy the timelapses showing the process
Coolest ride at sema for sure!
that carbon Trans tunnel/Battery cover is on brand overkill for this build, Love seeing it so far
All Hail the Algorithm 🙌
I could see just for the show tho, some clear centers with blue lights around the wheels with two piece lips made out of carbon . That would be sick!
Rotalocs are on mcmaster
3:48
Holy mother of Ginger-Fro batman!
lmaooooooo
I am so glad you're building a streetable version. Good work guys!
What was that smoke at 2:49? Mildly worrying lol
nothing major just welding things lol
How do you handle the odometer for a project like this? Are you allowed to just not give a shit if you're never gonna sell it?
no clue. got to watch episode one to get an idea on the condition we purchased this car lol. it was on its was to being scrapped.
@@StreetBandito oh yeah, for sure. I was just curious because you said you wanted it to be street legal. And I'm low key starting to wonder if the odometer thing is the same as mattress tags 😅
