    man chris has the best how to videos on youtube, hands down. i love the good video quality and the editing and he explains everything very thoroughly without any confusion. i like how he doesn't use any catchy music or feels the need to jokes around to keep us entertained. i like his no bullshit approach to making these videos and you know sometimes a guy just wants to look up an informative video without having to go thru a bunch of funny guy mechanics or people who are just terrible at explaining/showing things or just really suck at filming what they are trying to show. this guy does it cleanly and simply without over explaining or getting off subject.
    keep up the good work. not surprised to see you have over 2 million subscribers. it's because you're good at what you do and you have a way of explaining things that make it easy for us to understand and keep us from feeling overwhelmed when doing it ourselves.

      It's the same sort of thing like when you see your friend in a shop and there is clearly a windowing between you and lots of noise from the street but you gesture to them and in a weird sort of soft voice you say "I'll talk to you later". You know they can't hear you but you still say it. Everyone does.

    Good job on getting coilovers and trying them out! You most likely have some things to set up with them, so I thought I'd give you a few hints. A slight toe out is good for steering response. Naturally, exact settings depend on the specific make and model, driver preference and driving style and many other smaller factors as well, but slight negative camber and a little toe out up front is always good. On my car I run -2 camber and 2mm of toe out. The rule of thumb with street tires is: if you can see it, it's excessive. Also, check your ride height up front - you don't want it lowered past the point where your control arms are horizontal. That will most likely introduce some undesirable handling characteristics.
    Good job and keep practicing!

      a bad spark plug your engine will misfire. but a worn spark plug can reduce burn efficiency and lower your fuel economy.
      If its been a while since they have been replaced there is no harm in replacing them, most plugs are 2-4 bucks each. But do make sure you replace the plug wires aswell :)

    • @Tool0GT92

      Most newer cars can go 100K miles easily on a set of plugs. Most of them are iridium they last a long time. You should be able to find the recommended interval in your owners manual or online somewhere. Plugs only cost a few dollars each and take just a couple minutes to change.

      Tray Muse that sounds great and all but even though turbos are an effective means for extra power they aren't great for a course because of the need to gain boost it isnt going to provide as much power as you would think throughout a course. A blower would be more effective in that case, but i was asking for more of a cheaper means to get that extra little power out of the motor.

      @ViolentMLG 7 років тому +1

      Intake, testpipe, exhaust, etc are basic starters.
      Basically small engine upgrades, nothing is really "cheap" though, I own an 1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT and I've been modifying it, and everything is easily 150-400$ per mod (sometimes more) coilovers are 800-1200$ for a decent brand.
      Expect to spend a decent amount.

    • @DannysGarage
      @DannysGarage 7 років тому +6

      Since this is an SN95 Mustang, it has the Ford 4.6L Modular engine. Stock it makes 215hp and about 280 lb/ft of torque. The main restriction is in the heads and intake, so a cheap and easy way to add power is to get the heads and intake off of a 1999-2004 Mustang GT. Those are known as PI (performance improvement) components, and they were standard on the 1999-2004 Mustang GTs. With the PI heads and intake your horsepower jumps to about 260hp, with the torque being around 300. Quite an improvement for some parts that you can literally buy at a junkyard. For a little more performance, you can also toss in a set of performance camshafts from Comp Cams, along with some beehive valve springs. That should put you around 300hp for under $1000 all in. Another thing that really wakes these old Mustangs up is an improved diff ratio. Something like a 3.73 or 4.10 rear end will really help these cars move off the line.

    I don't know all whole lot about he dynamics of drifting but I've seen a lot of professional drift cars being able to soak up bumps a bit better than your car appears to in the vid. I'd recommend trying to soften them up a bit, you don't want one bump in the middle of a drift to throw the car off balance, especially with a solid rear axle

      It's probably illegal to remove the airbag wheel and replace it with a non-airbag wheel just like it is here in Australia, it's fine to change the wheel on older cars that don't have airbags so you can change it on your classic car and have no issue.

    think you need more damping and less spring. the car is bouncing way too much no?

    • @darkcashyz
      @darkcashyz 7 років тому +2

      I agree with you completely. I tried different spring rates and spring shapes for my car. For daily, I stick with fat shape coils with the same spring rate, these fat coils behave like progressive springs, just less progressive. They are a bit less responsive than straight coils in sharp turns and small bumps. But you can go through all the little bumps and they don't hurt your back, I don't want to have my back fuxed yet. And they are less bouncy when going through small bumps too. Then I dialed the damping up using electronic kit when I want my car to feel a little more sporty, dial it down when driving with family. It's still much more stiffer than stock though, since the spring rate is still the same as ones that come with the coilovers kit.

    • @harryazzole7814
      @harryazzole7814 7 років тому +2

      mcheddadi it could be that they're too firm. You're really supposed to go from full soft to full firm to get an idea of the two extremes and tune from there. It looks like the spring is softer than the strut so maybe softening up the dampening would be better.
