I just love how this channel hasn't lost the thing it was famed for from the start! Had me smiling from start to finish, nice one J and huge respect to the owner.
Exactly that. The races were great as soon as he introduced them (and it's a really slick format now), but meeting and experiencing owners and their cars like this is a vital part of the channel. Boy's done a top job!
@the.famous.youtube-guy It's because they rev lower, so diesel ratios on an engine that revs to 7-8k RPM mean that the gearing is much longer. i.e. The Seat Leon 1.4 TSi manual box has a fourth gear with 18.8mph per 1000rpm and a max speed of 122mph at 6500rpm, the equivalent 1.6 TDI manual box has a fourth gear with 24.3mph per 1000rpm but a max speed of only 109mph at 4500rpm. If you put the diesel gearbox in the petrol car (assuming the final drive was the same), the max speed for fourth would then be 158mph because the ratio stays the same but there are more revs to play with. (109/4.5*6.5) Conversely, petrol gearbox ratios would be ridiculously short in a diesel because you'd only ever be able to access a much smaller rev range than the manafacturer intended for that gear. The petrol's gearbox in the diesel car from the example above would give the gear a top speed of only about 85mph. (18.8*4.5) It's part of the reason that stock diesels don't tend to be as fast as their petrol counterparts too, since longer ratios mean less wheel torque, so lots of the benefit of the extra torque offered by a turbo diesel engine is lost when comparing straight-up acceleration. The solution to that problem for towing and acceleration is usually more, shorter gears, which is why diesel lorries have 14 or more gears with really fast ratios and is also the reason that diesel cars with 8 or more gears tend to fare better against their petrol equivalents
I seriously like how Jamie was filming everything in the Engine bay when the owner mentioned different mods. Jamie is very knowledgeable about exactly where to film for each mod! Sounds like he has a great shop.
A really amazing video. I wish I could cover cars like this in South Africa. This must be such a great journey with all the builds you see, all the different experiences and the most important the great people that you meat along the way. I would love to do such.😀
These are the type of vehicles I love ridiculous power being put to the front wheels and pure scattyness big up Jake absolute weapon you’ve built mate and big up Jamie for bringing this to the channel 💪🏿
Love it !! Probably only putting about 200bhp actually down on the road until it gets above 70, due to traction lol, but hell it looks fun. It would be great with standard bodywork and a really basic company logo.
"HE'S GOING AGAIN"😂😂 my guy Jamie it's about time you change up the game just like the civic and sprinkle some of that crazy OG sauce on your own big power van build🌙🛻
Sick build can I be really noisy I know it’s a diesel gearbox but which one I’m after one for my mk5 golf but don’t know which to get any advice would be welcome
I dont understand the Caddy thing, but even I love this. Seems like the gears are too long. Can hear the lag between gears. I do love it all the same. Quality build that.
Your content lately, with more of these builds that first made me love this channel, is on point! This is epic, but I'm biased as I am massively Into modified VW vans!
i think its verry cool if thist channel make JDM Kei car battle drag race 1 mile Or 5 Lap Race In Any Circuit (Suzuki Cara - VS - Honda RS660 - VS - Honda Beat - VS - Autozam AZ1 - VS - Honda Z VS Daihatsu Copen)

Absolutely
Everyone: Vans are not that quick
Jake: hold my beer....
This guy does all the work on my GTI absolutely top bloke 👌👌

Big respect to the owner when he told Jamie to "Send it" a man who knows what he's machine is capable of..
👍🙏✌💥
@@jakebatley1839let me drive it we see if there’s any weak spots great video buddy 👌🏻
If i was a carpenter, this is what i would pull up in
But is Timber a sustainable building material or can you grow concrete?
If i was a "pool boy" I'd pull up in this😅
If I was a plumber.......
😂😂 I completely agree
Get on to Monky London Comps, and you might win a similar one.
Long gear gearbox of a diesel with a petrol "tuned" engine is just a whole other breed at this point super mad🔥
Why is a diesel gearbox longer? I presumed as they rev to 5k it would be the opposite/shorter ... but what do it know 😂 I'm a barber not a mechanic 😂😂
