- Marty buys a Daihatsu as a runabout, only to discover it's seedy past in a cloud of smoke and coolant. The boys then buy two more cars and with the help of some MCM regulars they get the best bits from each and cram them into one, to make it bigger, better and mightier than ever before...

Also something to note around Mighty Car Mods: we are normal guys and are not trained mechanics. We like to make interesting car mods and show you how we've gone about it, but we can't promise that anything we show you will work for your particular car, or that you won't harm yourself, someone else, your car or your warranty doing it. Please be safe, be responsible and unless you know what you're doing, do not fool around with very serious machinery just because you've seen us make it look so easy. Talk to a qualified mechanic if you are in any doubt.
The nostalgia rewatching this is just immense...
Marty and Moogs voice tones in the studio!! ??
Hey, commenting so you can experience the nostalgia again
I seriously love the fact you guys seemingly dont discriminate, one man's shit box is another man's project car. Lots of respect.
They should make a new video with the same title where they buy a fully functional normal teenager car with a slow engine, and then to different mods to make the car perform better!
that would be great after getting my first car
That's what I was expecting.
+Kurguz z Toyota Starlet ?
+Kurguz z a nissan altima 2.5s
nah, european car.. audi or mercedez
speed is measured in the size of your exhaust tip and the amount of stickers on your car.
The truth has been spoken!
dont forget the zoooom noises when your petaling your bike to school...
and the redness of your brake calipers
And which way your snap back's peak faces
Thanks man. I needed this. My car must be heaps fast
i took thw engin out of mine to save weight, runs like a dream or should i say it runs in my dreams
Yaj i knoe whay youe talkineg aboue
+colby ooten not a single word of that sentence was correct bro 😂
must not fap Wauw brh csol
Lool
must not fap bro 😂
I love this episode. I've probably seen it 20 times and I keep watching it. These technical episodes where you guys do engine swaps and turbo conversions are really what I like to see. Marty's genius really shows in these areas. Keep up the good work guys.
agreed
👍
@TheMuslimEmpire Power output has almost doubled. Weight stays the same. That would make it one of the fastest Cuores in the country, and slower than your XR6T. Performance is a relative term when factored into comparison with baseline power figures. A car that can light up third gear that costs under $3000 should be considered fast for the money by anyones standards.
Australia, you've got some seriously freaky spiders.
Atrax robustus - Google it :)
+PHIL YEATES wow.
Medo Gabr sorry for fucking you.
+Mohammad Holy shit 😂😂😂
Yeah we do, but they're not as unfriendly as you'd think. I've been bitten by a redback, and it hurt like fuck. But aside from that, most of our spiders stay away from humans, and any Aussie with a head on their neck loves huntsmans.
To be young again with boundless energy, happy to see younger people using their minds👍👍👍
10:32 "problem was, I was cooking toast at the time man."
omg i was reading the comments en moog just like said your comment before i could read it that was really weird
My favorite part of the video :)
Brian, glad I like your channel and might can mods with you. Their channel is about the crazy fun on a car, and on your channel I'm learning real fixes for regular people who just want their car to work. You've helped me save many a family members and car.
DE Nichols ug. I said mighty car mods with some terrible android auto spell. Lol. Well...that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Lol
Rrr
@HitokiriCassio We love Australia and proud to be bringing a little bit of it to the world through UA-cam.
"...problem was, I was cooking toast at the time martin!" HAHA! Love it!
im so JDM, that i sleep in right side of bed
Lets Getit same
I laughed so hard🤣🤣🤣🤣
This guy wins the internet
Same her bro.
On*
I love this era of MCM. All the crazy stuff they do now is still way mad, but I like that you can see cars in the background being worked on.
Can you guys show me how to make my fast car slow? Thanks.
Sell it, buy an civic.
***** My english isn't the best :p
1. Drop a 3-cylinder in a big heavy car.
2. Have fun.
***** dude, don't spool it. You're letting all the secrets out.
Ripper Rants ALL OF UR SECRIT ARE BELONG TO US
Lawl
I love this channel, I'm 15 but every day I learn something new by watching their videos. My dad is even surprised because I know how to do stuff he doesn't know how to do, but hes a mechanic so he knows mostly all the stuff the guys here know except like installing nos ,
I'm 15 too! But my family isn't in to cars like I am and get annoyed when I talk about it :[
lol My Dad and my brother are the only ones into cars.
TheRunningEmpire that's quite good actually that you have 2 people into cars in your family why are you saying only :D
Cause the girls in our family don't.
It's the same in my family. They hate when we talk about cars
I love how Mechanical Stigs thing is just walking past, taking off the bumper and continuing to walk away.
That kinda becomes his signature move
6 years man , feels like yesterday . So much nostalgia.
So today i learned that if i want to make my slow car fast i need to buy 2 more of the same or similar cars salvage all the best parts and create a Frankenstein build. I also learned a little bit about Dinosaurs, Water and Lexus Cars... lol
"Mechanical Stig's superfast jacking technique - uugghhhhh" BAHAHAHAHAHA
+reezlaw weld the nut onto a jack rated for double to weight of the car... mine corkscrewed and stripped the thread in a couple weeks of hard use lol
+wassup haters Yeah they don't last too long doing this, but if you've had a bunch of old shit cars you get them piling up.
You guys just have those videos that somebody could watch over and over and over again!!! It great!!
i miss this car :(
R.I.P. BlueTurd
TrkG same
TrkG same
Sameee
I really miss the Blue Turd. Affordable AWESOME swap.
You guys have come a long way
That spider was ducking huge holy shit, Australia is sketchy af
+angel coria Where??
+angel coria Oh God nevermind I saw it! Disgusting.
+Christopher Walker where?
There is like One in Every Video i See. I could Never live there...
That was just a huntsman. They're harmless.
This swap has inspired a swap for my own daily driver, it will recieve a similar power increase that the Turd received and has a similar weight too.
It is a WA Ford Festiva with a tired 1.3L mazda B3 8v sohc carb motor that makes 43kw, I don't want to mess around with anything overly complex so I'm going to get a 1.6L mazda B6-2E 16v sohc carb motor out of a KF Livewire (same as the TRD LZR) which makes 64kw. Same block so it will bolt straight in.
Christmas Crustacean Let us know how it goes man. Good luck.
Christmas Crustacean That's killer, Always had a soft spot for the Festiva. I always wanted to swap the 1.3 B3 into a Miata for some reason...Give it some aero mods and make it an uber crazy mileage monster. I know there was some guy on the net who did the swap, I know it was pretty simple, aside from a few custom pieces.
yeah the australian delivered ones already had the B3 but its kinda underwhelming
what about the Engine from the 1st Gen Probe GT?
So crazy to see how far yall have come now. And Benny has such a badass beard now
the title is what I see in every eBay description
if you had the choice between any skyline or world peace? what colour would your skyline be
Charcoal
Silver with blue extremities and decals. Because Brian O'Conner
White with black wheels or just blue
World peace, people would accept me and I would start a "charity" and buy a shit load of skylines.
I love cars but honestly I would rather world peace. Am I fucking stupid?
It's cool to watch this swap being done. I recently did a 97+ swap on my 1990 Jeep Comanche pickup, which entails taking everything from a 1997-2001 Jeep Cherokee and fitting it onto the Comanche frame/body. Very much the same process you did here! Very cool!
All of the people down here in the comments saying he should have bought a V8 somethingorother...
The whole point in the Blue Turd was a fun little daily driver / runabout that was economical. It used less than half the fuel that Marty's Subaru's did.
Also, get some imagination and broaden your horizons a bit. V8 isn't the answer to everything, and nor are most of the ones I've seen suggested fast anyway.
I'm not sure how long it is going to take American's to realize that horsepower makes a car accelerate faster rather than torque either...
Tell me about it...look at those guys who just chucked a Hayabayusa motorcycle engine into a Smart Car. Yes, it was stupid, no, it didn't lack power. A small detuning or a complete handling overhaul would have helped the tires catch grip, but otherwise that thing is just freaking nuts!
And it's a Smart Car. Probably still getting some sort of gas mileage for a car too...a larger gas tank wouldn't hurt considering how freaking overpowered the car is with that Hayabayusa now installed.
***** I actually really loved that mod lol even though the thing was just fucking sliding around an definitely not going anywhere fast. To each his own, though.
WeActOnImpulse Official Well, how are you gonna expect to pass 130 km/h without the car starting to tip backward unless you put on a front spoiler...XD
***** Yeah I know it's cool but no practical use whatsoever lol
WeActOnImpulse Official True dat
Must be nice to not have to fight with rusted bolts.
Just use penetration fluid
From a UK I presume?
ah yes, to make my car faster i can just completely replace the entiredy of the front subframe, do a whole engine swap; reshell and completely replace the interior. how DIY. thank you mightycarmods
Those birds sound like little kids
lol
+Diaper Vision Yeah im like wtf so wierd birds man xD
+Diaper Vision Strayan berds moyt.
+Diaper Vision To me they sound like tormented demons.
+Diaper Vision THOSE ARE BIRDS???
Still love watching your older videos years later. You guys rock. Keep it up. #RIPBlueTurd
Good vid. Title is a bit misleading.
+Mark Roman Not if you speak Australian, mate.
+Sadpants McGee I'm Australian and I feel misled.
+Teh Stranger? cars are slow when the motors are blown so there maxing it faster by making it run again
+Mark Roman I mean the engine swap did make it fast...
+Mark Roman fuck u mate
R.I.P. BlueTurd 😢😭😭😭

I LOVE kei cars! I wish we had them here in the states. This hatchback is so stellar and swapping pieces from one cheap car to another cheaper car is such a good use of time. Definitely my kind of brilliance.
That car looks, sounds, and drives like garbage. I have a 97 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, best first car you can buy. I got mine for $1,600 and it has heated leather, sun roof, bose stereo, fog lights and best of all a Supercharged 3.8L V6 which makes 240hp stock, although after I put about $300 into it, it makes 265ish. (U-bend delete, undersized supercharger pulley and an intake) So reliable, I have 165,000 miles on it and have never had any major issues (once the battery died and it killed the mass airflow sensor which cost $20 but thats it).
How the fuck did they manage to only get 240BHP out of a supercharged 3.8L??? You can get 210BHP from a 1.6L Mini.
I got 800 forages redoing 3.8 from pistons up n supercharged it
Rin Hato Because it was 1997. It has 300 lb feet of torque though. One of the most reliable engines of all time.
Zach Weibel I built a 620 bhp car that weighs less than 2000, what is your point? :p oh right, the cost :p Only cost about 100k :p
Wub-0-Tronic WHO WOULD GO ON THE INTERNET AND TELL LIES!!??!?!?!
at EXACTLY 4:04 the oil splatter makes a Suzuki S logo symbol...
just missing MCM so much, i'm watching it all from the start again
Moog's voice is so much high in this lmao
Cyril Schoenacker do you mean Marty?
Reverb リバーブ Yeah Marty too, but Moog really sound higher than usually
I noticed that too. I think they've got more comfortable with speaking on camera and which loosens up the vocal cords.
There is something a bit odd with the audio on the intro and exit sequences, as if it's pitched up unintentionally.
Road Trolls it definitely was
any advice on upgrading the 3.8 L V6 in my pontiac grand prix 2004?
Eaton M90 supercharger swap
get a superchargered engine
LS1
fuck its life with a massive turbo
You watched the right vid my friend! The 1.3 from the Sirion is a perfect fit for the Pontiac GP. Get ready for the torque though, your tires won't know what hit them.
Your interior work reminds me of the time I installed the leather interior from a 1967 Mercury Cougar XR-7 into a 1970 Ford Maverick. It was killer.
You guys must have been really drunk. You installed the sterring wheel on the wrong side!!! Make sure your front passenger has a driver's license.
Dude, that's a right hand drive vehicle. Lmao
what a fucking idiot.
Ray_Biker I hope you're joking.
When people do not understand a joke..
jackpotit
LOL!
I still miss the silvia
I got a Daihatsu Rocky 2.8 Turbo Diesel and absolutely love her! Good on ya guys!
Anyone still watching in 2018
my slow car is still slow after watching this
I love coming back and watching some of these 8 year old videos from time to time.
That's just good fine work for 2500$ which is 1lakh 70 thousand Indian RS.
+fahidlod1 Sucks to be a speghatti shit eater.
+Godly Gagger chill dude
fuck is a lakh?
all that effort for a daihatsu
*Spoiler* That they eventually crushed.
A red light burnout in the middle of Menai on the way to Alfords Point to do some fully sick backstreet touge. Love it
RIP Blue Turd
2019 still watching???????
one of the best episodes ever ! i could watch it all over again and again.. do more videos like these MCM...
All this f*cking work and then they crushed it! Wtf, this car was a JDM Gold Nugget…
I believe they mentioned they parted out the car and donated the parts to someone else for their project. They really only crushed an empty shell.
Still sad to see nonetheless.
@@germaineliew2012 Yeah I know bu still… It was still good, they mention something about rust but they have nothing compared to what we have here in Sweden when it comes to rust…
If you say MARTYCARMODS in a regular American accent, your just pronouncing MIGHTYCARMODS in an Australian accent.
Classic Mighty Car Mods. Gives me motivation to do work myself.
all you need is red paint to make it go faster!
Or stickers which add 25kw each
True Immortality Gaming
Red paint might make it go faster but paint some flames on there and you've got a rocket :P LOL
Y'all Australians are not doing it right your not screaming out curse words and cutting your knuckles.
This is awesome! Good job guys! Nice to see younger guys still into this kind of stuff not just video games.
FAST JACKING TECHNIQUE XD DIED
you know what makes a car really fast? racing stripes- check out my latest vid where I explain to you the science behind racing stripes
MCM's recent Levorg build really reminds me of the old Blue Turd.
Both builds with similar concept, pull out all the good bits like drivetrain and interior bits from a donor car(Both happened to be wrecked) and then transplant them. Marty even reupholstered the rear seats in a similar manner.
Only difference is cars these days are so much more complicated with the CAN nonsense and stuff.
I was just thinking about this. Exactly the same concept, 10 years apart.
how to buy a 1000$ car and put 20,000$ into guide
That big ass spider ruined the whole video for me...
I used to watch you guys when you guys had like 100k subs. Wow u guys got a lot more now. Good job!
1.3L is a good size for a liquor bottle, not an engine.
shut up ignorant
ignorant? its only the truth..
any engine can make good torque and power without too much trouble. and in a small light car they can be quicker than a bigger engined heavier car, yes they won't have the same top speed, but it'll get off the line faster.
Thomas just answered for me!
Thomas Caraccio And they sound like a piece of junk... also, getting off the line faster, my ass, i've raced soo many rice rockets in my '69 charger with a 440 6 pack and 3.73 gears, and i've left much much faster then most "smaller cars" even when they are suped up... plus its funny when i can do 140 km/h at 2200 rpm, and then hear little rice rockets trying to pass me hitting the rev limiter passing me like an old grandpa...
NOOOOO!!!!
WAI U GET RID OF PEDOBEAR?!!?!?
=[
Schrödy Brodie Because the car's reputition of being a Malaysian taxi driven by a tall afro Pedobear kidnapping someone while he scratches the door trying to get out and ran over another dude at the same time....
ToperMasterComedy
Oh shit, gnarly.
I'd say that's as good a reason as any.
+Schrödy Brodie :(
This video popped up in my feed, so I thought I'd give it a watch, and I remember watching this video a few years ago. This build reminds me off the Yaris Hilton build quite a few years after this one. I've been watching you guys since I think it was the WRX motor into the mustard Beetle (Miss Daisy?). You guys have come a long long way, and I look forward to the next video all the time, And never disappointed. Seeing Benny sans beard, he looks much younger and different. He also looks much more intelligent with a beard, LOL.
Looking forward to the next video guys.
2020 gang❤💪
Who is in 2020
This is my favorite MCM video till this day.
You can't beat the feeling of a cheap small fast car, especially a street sleeper. If I won the Lotto I'd have the nastiest cheap small standard looking piece of shite fast car going. lol
lol I feel so stupid. I can barely change the oil on my BMW lmao!
Hectic to come back and watch these older ones.
Back when Marty had a hair line
LMAO! Pedobear @ 1:58
hey man.. great job what u guys did back there. this is definitely the best automotive show after the glorious Top Gear!! I'm definitely subs..
all that work for a pos? xD
YES THE PEDOBEAR STICKER!!!
i loved this as a kid man
Daihatsu = Nissan
Marty: "I WILL DESTROY ALL NISSANS!"
Daihatsu = toyota
Sadly Mighty Car Mods is DEAD
thnx mate
they just released a new 1 hour long video lol
Yh I posted the comment before they brought it out.
Im British myself mate!. I was helping the viewrs out by creating awareness so that everyone will take part so MCM will do more videos coz they know we are waiting.
Uh huh because British people censor out their swearing. How old are you, like 2? And don't give me that bullshit about awareness, everyone knew they were alive. FACEBOOK PAGE. Oh wait, your mummy won't let you have a Facebook yet will she.
so summary, get your old broken down car, buy a newer, faster one (for twice the price a working version of your old car), and instead of just using the newer one (if it is drive-able), spend about two days completely taking apart both cars and fit the new engine into your original car. Now you have a some what faster car although no one will really care due to its age and appearance.
Nice!
LMAO... You are so fucking right. This is hilarious shit.
These cars are obviously shit if not sold in America. Honda FTW!
dunno if serious or trying to troll.
Mr. Urmo's channel trolling
American cars are the standard of "shit".
lol
The engines on most newer VW golfs are quite good. they last for a while and have little to no problems. The diesel ones are economic as fuck too.
TOO MUCH POWER HE SAYS..........its a 1.3ltr theres no form of power at all in that thing dude cmon.
why do you guys buy baby toys that people call a car.
they put bigger engines in bikes.
For the car, yeah it's too much power, do you see how skinny those tires are? It would be easy to lose traction in that thing.
in a 1.3 ltr..?
ive seen bigger engines than that fail to break traction how would this car accidentally break traction?
dean tape Skinny tires, smaller contact patch.
It's such a small car that weighs nothing, the power to weight ratio was probably good enough from the factory and with a bigger engine the power to weight just goes sky high, not to mention the skinny tyres Marty also talked about.
If you put a bigger, powerful engine in a small, light shell, then it'll go faster than before. They made the 1.0l to be nippy enough for the Cuore to beat the Civic (which was a 1.5l, just for the record). If the 1.0l was nippy enough for the Cuore, the 1.3l, plus the tires, will make it a lot faster.
These guys if you watch all their videos dont know much about cars. I wouldnt listen to them
Dawson Racing They don't know anything about cars.
That's why they've built an 11 second Subaru wagon.
***** okay i didnt literally mean they know absolutely nothing. They obviously do
I swapped the top of the line best K24a2 into my 8th gen civic SI over the stock K20z3 and I absolutely love it. You can actually make money doing it yourself too selling the z3!
The feeling of a swapped engine in a car. Its amazing even if they aren't much different. Kinda like one of my subaru impreza it had a non turbo engine that was burning oil so bad and did just not run right eventually it seized up because I didn't feel like filling it up because I have a lot of engines laying around in my shop so once it stopped a new turbo engine that I was modding went in which made that car a lot faster.
I hope you guys get more sponsors and get filthy rich so that you can build a supra from the ground up and do a series on it. You guys rock.
i love this idea, pretty much my '02 civic sedan method. all donor parts were from crashed/blown other 02-05 civics
'02 civic LX sedan (1 owner, was a handicapped lady ZERO rust or damage 170,000k) 1500$
h&r sport springs (2 oil changes on them, kid blew his engine up...bad mods) 80$
??? mandrel-bent aluminum short-ram intake w/ k&n filter (front-ended coupe) 15$
'perfect stop' ceramic pads&rotors (dad put on son's car and got rear-ended after 1 trip to the corner store hahaha, still had boxes and receipt and fresh cross-hatching on the rotors.) 100$
megan race header with high-flow catalytic converter, and full stainless magnaflow catback exhaust and muffler (perfect condition, 2 oil changes worth of miles, car still ran even after a truck trailer hitch went through the kid's front end through the radiator 1/2 inch from the header...texting and driving) 260$
i could swap the vtec heads of the exhaust car or just buy the whole 160,000 k d17 engine for 500$, or spend 3500$ and fully swap a k20a2 and 6 speed tranny from an 02 rsx type s...either way junkyards and car meets can make a 1500$ ladies' car into a slightly louder (although equally slow) and much better handling... *cough cough* call it a ladies' car and i'll lose my shit
Still watching in 2023 with my very own k3ve2 cuore, inspired by this very video. Didnt need to cut and solder the rear loom could just use the rear loom and repin the tail light wires. Also the electric window regulators bolt at right into the cuore by swapping the lower rail. So factory power windows and wiring.
I have a Daihatsu and I loved ur videos!
"High tech precision instrument also known as a handsaw."
Subbed m8
got some good guys there
That Daihatsu looks amazing it will be really fast out race track and road Good job 👏👏
I've got the same electric impact wrench! It's strong enough to take the wheels off a bus, though you'll need to swap batteries to put them back on.
These guys are seriously awesome! I dont care what care it is if you can build it from the damn frame up Its amazing. I am definitely subscribing after watching this.
Love you guys ... greetings from the future
