Kyle seems like a proper lad, be nice to see him stick around.
I remember feeling sad when Alex left CT, I felt without him CT would be naff and without Jack and Ethan, Alex's content wouldn't be as good. I'm so glad I was wrong both Car Throttle and AutoAlex have been putting out Fantastic content. The additions of Edwin, Taylor and Rory have been brilliant.
Seriously this is the best CT/Alex era we've ever had. So happy to see all the guys getting along just fine.
Tbh I was not worried about CT, but was really curious about whats to come and how it will change. I was sure the Alex will have a great channel, but was worried there wont be subs and vies and he might have to quit.
I am happy that CT is more or less the same and I am ever happier about Alex and Taylors channel. Lets admit it, its not just Alexs channel. 😅
Do we know why Alex left?
@@doobiehash23From what I understand, car throttle became too restrictive in terms of planning and allowing him to be spontaneous. Ex: He couldn't find a car and go buy it the same day for a new video, it had to be approved and budgeted for
I don’t want this one to end. Please continue developing this car
I want to see a 1 tank of fuel challenge, each buy a car on a budget, set a direction and see who can go the furthest.
Absolutely this, it'll be diesel challenge. Can't beat them without hybrid.
Yes i want to see this, even if they end up driving into europe , got to be cars out there that can do 1000 miles on a tank
They will all just buy 1,9 TDI Cars.
@@MCMonsterbuilderor that horrible 2.0sdi
Then they all buy VW Passat B3 1.9 Tdi with that huge 70l tank. But I still want to see that.
Saw this a little over a week ago when I was at the garage helping a mate out with his car. those wheels look even better than on the video and a great choice! watched them do some filming, but really wanted to chat with them, but left because its rude to interrupt.
This 924 is now my favourite project car online, I want to see just how far you guys can take a car that's been in a field for 20 years. Moss needs to stick around for a long time. I also love the fact that you are doing the project entirely backwards, ie. superchargers, dynos and tarty wheels and suspension, when the gear linkage isn't even working yet 😆 keep up the good work.
Genuinely one of my all time favourite series on UA-cam, can't wait to see the plucky little 924 making more power as you guys get that 5th injector going, and a test out on the open road!
The bigger question is, how long until it breaks again? 😂
As someone who has quadrupled the power output of a 1970s 4-cylinder car, I can tell you that it will be soon. Very soon. It probably happened already and we are simply unawares.
Bold of you to assume it hasn't already.
@@FoolishPursuitForce these are very very strong engines, they are just brushing the surface, if its healthy (doubt that).
😂
It's already broken. We just don't know it yet
Love the fact kyles getting the airtime he deserves! Need too see more of him... working on the cars that is! 😮
Can’t lie fellas, I think that looks fkn sick. Awesome work, can’t wait to see it progress
This is the best series to hit car throttle EVER
5:16 I love Jack and Kyle talking, and then from underneath the car/off camera, you hear Edwin ''I'll clean it!''
This series is the only thing keeping me breathing right now, PLEASE keep it up!
Hang in there mate 👍
Try Mighty Car Mods too, Turbos & Temples especially 😅
I am really impressed how far that car has come.
most people would hve just scrapped that car
Most people sound sane..
The best series you guys have done in a long time, back to a proper build and I have been loving it. Please keep this kind of content coming lads. Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you all.
I love the chemistry between these guys lol
It should be making 140ish so get the fuel sorted. Check that the cam-lobes aren't worn out, common on 924 because of oil starvation to the lifters. The internals are superstrong, you won't break that anytime soon!
Yea it ofcourse lost some power, but even my Granada 2.3 makes 100hp
They don't know what it makes at the crank nor do you so suggesting what it should be making is irrelevant. I don't know why Poms insist on quoting bhp figures having NEVER measured them, it's a guesstimate at best.
It'd be like me saying my front fence is this long because I measured the street😂😂
Sort the fuel not to make a hypothetical power figure but because lean up top condition will grenade any engine regardless of how strong it is.
I am loving your content recently. Since Alex left you've gone in a different direction which I'm loving
The 924 XK and XJ engines have 125hp stock power.
The fact that only 70hp is produced before the supercharger is installed means that the current engine settings, such as the advance and retardation of the ignition timing and the fuel amount of the K-JET system, are the worst.
A well-set 924 XJ engine and EFI Independent Throttle (ITB) setting also produces 150 hp.
If you raise the engine condition to the best, I think it will easily produce more than 160~170 hp.
I'm really looking forward to your next video. !!
Carthrottle has really bounced back after Alex left. Now we have 2 awsome channels to follow
ah, the good ole days of messing with K Jetronic CIS cars! i daylied several of those back in the day, one of which was a 9a 16V GTI (9A 2.0 from a Passat) mk2. i've rebuilt several of the fuel distributors, something the dealers warn you against. but i did it! and i was barely 20 years old when i did. another 20 years on and i'm one of the only people in my area of eastern Nebraska that has a CLUE about those old CIS setups! my 16V would SING as i ripped against v8 mustangs and camaros. it's a properly good system once you figure out how it's supposed to work!
You can't polish a turd. But you can roll it in glitter.
You are the reason why the guys at TIYG always look so down trodden when I turn up with my 944. Keep up the good work!
Moss is a keeper, hope it stays with the channel for a long time
I really hope they go all the way with this one, fixing all the rust etc. Would be an amazing series
Me too man, should be a permanent ongoing project
I think there should be a series of Ethan restoring the Milennium Focus back to its original glory! That is a very rare car deserving love!
Just spotted Jack joy repping the juice box hoody ... he must love an incredibly long ae86 twin cam resto build series 😂
The shot at 11:29 with the wide angle lens and car pulling out definitely feels like juice box
I absolutely love this car,watching ye lot bring it back to life is a pleasure. I absolutely love the recent style and soul the channel has. Keep it up boys not many channels doing this sort of thing anymore
Really happy to see nankang tyres getting more love. I adore the NS-2Rs on my Up! GTI and they’re brilliant daily tyres
I try to savour these videos as much as possible. The dynamic is amazing between you guys
This is a brilliant series, well done and thank you.
18:53 the moss growing on the windscreen is dope 😅
i really like this 924 project. Imagine the power u could make if the motor gets a rebuild done and has the supercharger kit on it.
You have to MOT this thing and get it on the road! Maybe take the Golf and this on a road trip somewhere to celebrate their rebirth(s)...
Would be cool for them to get another barn find and fix it up so all 3 can go on a road trip.
I love this little car, also it's so refreshing to have a channel work on regular cars, it seems like everyone these day are just working on lambo's and Ferraris now.
I needed this! Thank you! CT is so good with you three!!
There should be a UK car UA-cam channel race. Drag rally track. Same car you have to mod for each race.
You guys autoalex overdrive and maybe others from overseas if they want to (crisfix/donut) ect.
I think viewers of all these channels would love it
I really like that you made a working starter out of used original parts. People always go with a new starter as if the original is garbage but if you just clean the original one out it might outlast a new one. Thats my experience
Love this. Old light cars with even a little bit of power are so fun.
I seriously LOVE those Rota wheels that y'all bought for the Porsche. Between the rims and tires they just look PERFECT for that car. It would've been really cool to see them with staggered wheels (meaning wider in the rear), but it'll still turn heads once it's lowered.
It's crazy. I've been building Mustangs for 10 years and I've driven the right-hand drive cars but seeing one on my TV knowing it's halfway around the world and thinking I may have driven it before the owner that lives in England blows my mind.
Great job! I'm sure there is some more power to be had with some more tweaking! Enjoying your progress on saving this 924.
Guys, thank you so much for this series! I have a 924 sitting in a garage for 8 years waiting for me to find time to sort it out. It needed a replacement engine, that is in, started once, but then it was not touched, so I believe it will be in similar state as yours when you got it😀. I also bought the supercharger kit from Ciprian (I can confirm the quality of the build) and I want to start working on it next year, as it is the year of the '24, right? 😀
I wish you good luck with your build! I can already see it will turn out awesome!
7:35 Can't believe Jack would lie like that to everyone. Ethan has been the backbone of this project!
Great work lads. The excitement on your faces when driving it, is what it's all about :)
This series is just such a gem! Wonderful work guys!
Is that now your official HQ? Top Gear had the swanky studio, you’ve got a ramp in a shared garage!
Love it. Keep up the good work boys.
This series is absolutely fantastic! really rooting for Moss!
I have never wanted a car throttle car more, I'd love to buy this when you're finished with it!
Really enjoyed this series. Glad there's more to come.
Your disregard for the production budget and schedule has to be applauded.
This car is AWESOME you guys have smashed my expectations, this is one of my favourite car builds it sounds great, looks great and is great. Still a few things to tweak but you are well on your way.
You guys are going deeper and deeper into a rabbit hole.
Wonderland here we go!
My absolute favourite series on UA-cam by far ❤
Amazing to see it screaming on the dyno, the wheels are utterly perfect too.
Next steps 140hp, MOT and take it to some car shows?
They would be welcome to attend some of our meetings.
@@924oc Legends! That sounds like an invitation to me 😎
Cleaning will be done this episode
It looks ausome with those wheels, good job 🎉
Merry Christmas lads 👍🏼
I love these videos. Other channels with "Check out my new 1.5 million dollar Ferrari!" get so eye-rollingly dull. You got money, we get it. THIS is something three guys can actually do in real life.
Really enjoying this series
I had one 924s. Handles like on rails. It's a much maligned car. I put it in storage, And one jack lift raised 3 tires.
Im enjoying this series a lot.
An absolutely amazing series lads smashed it as always 👊🔥 hope you guys and all your families have an amazing Christmas same to everyone reading this!!!🎄🎄
Rebuilding starters used to be common practice! Rebuild kits were still available into the 2000s!
This series has been really fun to follow. Makes me feel better about throwing parts and money at my rusty shitbox
Love this series team! Please do give this beast an aesthetic upgrade too!
i had a bog standard 924 it went very well ! the acceleration felt way quicker then the quoted 10sec to 60 and she went well over 125 mph and the motor was no where near the redline over 120. i had a 944s2 afterwards which was obviously alot quicker but i never felt like the 924 lacked in power.
You can hit 150 with the supercharger. Stock is 125bhp, I’ve owned a 924 for 8 years, it’s so underrated.
I love this saga.
I like those wheels on this car. Fit's the 80's style well.
Excellent video, loving the progress and seeing it all come together. You’re smashing it
I love that we now have this channel and AutoAlex. Good times
Edwins Renault BTCC jacket is all i want for Christmas
My wife's just said to me that Edwin's essentially the self taught and capable middle child, Ethan the hapless younger sibling and Ethan's the eldest brother who's tired of everyone's bullshit.
Best series on this channel for a long time.
Oh man I had just finished watching all the other videos of this and have been ACHING to see what's happening next!
Waiting for the Moss t-shirts!
great series, really enjoyed watching you guys revive the old girl.
Gez at Horsham Developments chipped my S14a 200SX back in 2003. He's a star!
Those wheels look awesome on the car. I was skeptical of replacing the originals, but these do suit. Nice work combining stuffed starters. It's frustrating getting 'good used,' rebuilt, or even new parts and finding they're busted or weak too. It'll do your head in trying to find the problem. I went through four new starter solenoids before I got a good one recently. They would all spin up the starter motor, but the bad ones were too weak to push the pinion out.
Can we just appreciate Edwins Renault BTCC jacket from 1998. 😍😍
glad to see a car on car throttle that hasn’t been hit by a royal mail lorry 😂
Please do more to this car, would like to see how far you could take this project!
I’ve really been enjoying this series!
I really think you should just keep going with this car until its fully restored to perfect condition (or as close as possible), no matter how much work it takes
I agree
Notification Squad!🔥🔥🔥
I am fixing up a 924 same colour, and about the same amount of starting problems but great work very entertaining
5:48 - My GTI is currently on jacks for the holidays due to a stuck bolt, so this part really resonates with me.
(it got new brakes and rotors for christmas).
"Watering the moss" hahahaha
Love Edwin’s joy.. his jacket still reminds me of my Renault Laguna. Old school power
gorgeous wheels!!
Please, restore Moss completely. Such a joyful car.
That engine is being restricted somewhere.. either the exhaust (cat) is partially clogged, or maybe some of the valves are leaking.. either way, cant wait until this thing is painted, restored and banging gears on the road! Cheers from Canada, lads!
Ethan also done the porsche badge 😂 in the engine bay
110 bhp is the factory power for USA cars only (early US cars were even more crippled!). All European 924's and the rest of the world made 124 bhp stock. Even after Moss' obvious neglect, it should still make over 100 bhp without the supercharger.
I used to own one my first and last porsche and I miss it so so bad and would do anything to relive those moments again . These are great cars in my opinion and a great starter porsche if you really want to play that game , nothing else does it better to me but oh well to each his own.
I am so invested in this build…
Edwin needs to ask santa for jumpers with longer sleeves 😂😂 sick video again boys cant wait to see the rest 🙌
The gear linkage is a common issue. You can get or make a rose jointed one that gets rid of most of the play and flex in the pressed steel joint. I believe JMG sell a kit for the front and rear
Those rims are sick! So cool.
