what an amazing video absolutely love the commentary

everyone talks about the ae86 trueno but nobody talks about the ae92 trueno

H engines are also called boxer engines I believe bc its like they're punching horizontally

I find it funny to watch car videos from Americans, cuz car culture is way different (Brazilian btw). Most cheap cars here will be rear drive manuals. And then Americans will be like "no cuz I have to have experience with those cars." Man... How to tell you most of us already has.

the auto diss was pure comedy lmao love it.

Basic components of an engine: **A Complete Guide to Understanding Car Engines in Detail** The **engine** is the core of any vehicle, converting fuel into energy that propels the car forward. This guide will break down everything you need to know about engines, from their components and processes to advanced variations like turbocharging and hybrid systems. --- ## **What is a Car Engine?** A car engine is a machine that uses **internal combustion** to generate mechanical energy. This energy is transferred to the wheels to move the car. It’s called "internal combustion" because fuel burns (combusts) inside the engine. Engines are designed to be efficient, reliable, and powerful, balancing performance and fuel consumption. --- ## **Core Components of an Engine** ### **1. Cylinders** - The engine block contains **cylinders**, which are hollow spaces where combustion occurs. - Pistons move up and down inside these cylinders to drive the engine’s operation. - Engines are classified by the number of cylinders they have (e.g., 4-cylinder, 6-cylinder). ### **2. Pistons** - Pistons are metal components that move up and down in the cylinder. - They are connected to the **crankshaft** via **connecting rods**. - The pistons compress the air-fuel mixture and convert combustion energy into mechanical force. ### **3. Crankshaft** - The crankshaft converts the pistons’ up-and-down motion into rotational motion. - This rotational motion is what ultimately turns the car’s wheels. ### **4. Camshaft** - The camshaft controls the opening and closing of the engine’s valves. - It rotates in sync with the crankshaft via a **timing belt** or **timing chain**. ### **5. Valves** - **Intake valves** let the air-fuel mixture into the cylinder. - **Exhaust valves** allow burnt gases to exit. ### **6. Spark Plugs** - Found in gasoline engines, spark plugs create a spark to ignite the air-fuel mixture. - Proper timing of the spark is critical for efficient combusti ### **7. Fuel Injectors** - Modern engines use **fuel injectors** to spray a precise amount of fuel into the cylinder for combustion. - Older engines used carburetors, which mixed fuel and air before sending it to the cylinders. --- ## **The Four-Stroke Combustion Cycle** Most car engines follow a **four-stroke cycle**: ### **1. Intake Stroke** - The piston moves down, creating a vacuum in the cylinder. - The **intake valve** opens, and air mixed with fuel enters the cylinder. ### **2. Compression Stroke** - The piston moves up, compressing the air-fuel mixture. - This increases pressure and makes the mixture more explosive. ### **3. Power Stroke** - A spark plug ignites the compressed mixture, creating a small explosion. - The force pushes the piston down, generating mechanical energy. ### **4. Exhaust Stroke** - The piston moves up again, pushing the burnt gases out through the **exhaust valve**. This cycle happens thousands of times per minute, which is why engines are measured in **RPM** (revolutions per minute). ## **Types of Engine Configurations** ### **1. Inline Engines** - Cylinders are arranged in a straight line (e.g., 4-cylinder inline engine). - Common in compact and efficient cars. ### **2. V-Shaped Engines** - Cylinders are arranged in two banks forming a "V" shape. - Found in performance cars (e.g., V6, V8). ### **3. Flat Engines** - Cylinders lie flat, facing outward (horizontally opposed). - Known for balance and used in Porsche and Subaru cars. --- ## **Advanced Engine Features** ### **1. Turbochargers** - A turbocharger uses exhaust gases to spin a turbine, forcing more air into the engine. - This increases power without increasing engine size. ### **2. Superchargers** - Similar to a turbocharger but powered by the engine itself, providing immediate power boosts. ### **3. Variable Valve Timing (VVT)** - Adjusts the timing of the intake and exhaust valves for better efficiency and power at different RPMs. ### **4. Direct Injection** - Injects fuel directly into the combustion chamber rather than the intake manifold, improving precision and efficiency. --- ## **Supporting Systems in the Engine** ### **1. Cooling System** Engines generate heat during combustion. Without cooling, they would overheat and fail. - **Radiator**: Disperses heat from the coolant. - **Water Pump**: Circulates coolant through the engine. - **Thermostat**: Regulates coolant flow based on engine temperature. ### **2. Lubrication System** Engines have many moving parts that need to stay smooth and cool. - **Oil Pump**: Circulates oil to reduce friction. - **Oil Filter**: Removes contaminants from the oil. ### **3. Exhaust System** - The exhaust system channels burnt gases away from the engine. - Includes components like the **catalytic converter**, which reduces harmful emissions. --- ## **Engine Performance Metrics** ### **1. Horsepower (HP)** - Measures the engine’s ability to do work over time. - More horsepower means faster acceleration and higher top speeds. ### **2. Torque** - Measures rotational force. - High torque is crucial for tasks like towing and quick starts. ### **3. Displacement** - The total volume of all cylinders in the engine. - Larger displacement usually means more power. --- ## **Electric and Hybrid Engines** Modern engines are evolving to reduce emissions and improve efficiency: ### **1. Hybrid Engines** - Combine a gasoline engine with an electric motor. - The motor assists during acceleration, and the engine recharges the battery. ### **2. Electric Motors** - Pure electric cars use motors instead of combustion engines. - Powered by high-capacity batteries, they are silent and highly efficient. --- ## **Engine Diagnostics and Maintenance** ### **1. Common Issues** - **Misfires**: When the combustion process fails, often due to a faulty spark plug or injector. - **Overheating**: Caused by coolant leaks or radiator problems. - **Knocking**: A rattling sound from premature combustion due to low-quality fuel or incorrect timing. ### **2. Maintenance Tips** - Change the oil every 3,000-5,000 miles. - Replace spark plugs every 30,000 miles (or as recommended). - Inspect the timing belt every 60,000 miles. --

Wait what's that 1:42

0:05 BAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA😂😂😂😂

Hyper cars = super supercars

0:59 When "Only 2 genders" is now considered just an opinion, you know our humanity is cooked 💀

who tf would watch this video? a 1st grader?

Super noob question but someone please explain the joke at 1:20 about the ford lol

your so fun to watch

0:30 Okay chill😂

Americas cars are reliable what are you yapping for?

Yo your wrong bro what about the trust ssc the world fastest car it goes 700mph or 763mph

This was a headache of a video😂

Why is this so underrated?

JDM = Japanese Domestic Market.. aka RHD. Any car that was made for the AMERICAN market is not a JDM… if anything it’s an ADM lol

This guy hasn’t seen a single woman in years

Motorcycle without plate and mask with helmet 😂😂😂😂

i thought u had like at least 500k subs then I looked at the channel bar

there are a few V4s, thjey're just used on bikes and in a few cars like the porsche 919 evo

The crown vic and E190 are giving me some ideas 😅

maybe keep an eye on this young man. somebody

The H layout is actually different to the F layout. The F layout is two banks of cylinders opposite each other like you explained, but the H is 2 of those F layout engines on top of each other

how normal people say Nissan: Nee - sahn how Chariots says Nissan: Nih - san

fwd are super fun on mountains but it's not the best performance wise.

If you're driving through snow you need more than awd. If it's a snowy winter with icy roads you don't even need awd.

Thank you sm for the video. I love cars and always wanted to learn more abt them. Thinking of doing automotive engineering in the uni so wanted to strat now lol

Third

I would buy a 350z and the red one

Amazing options I would personally pick the nonexistent 3rd option

This dudes legit

Underrated ig I’m here before u get famous

Bro roasted the cars

I absolutely love this car, it's reliable, loud and powerful. And kinda easy to modify. And i'm planning to buy one of these, 100%

Nissan bluebird left that chat fr

Market. It's market... not men

i agree the mkiv is a little shithead

Bro thinks hes fitment industries

Please keep making videos bro

My japanese great grandpa worked at subaru when there were only 30 people, but its very unfortunate that hes dead now

Not a bad video mate

The Z31 has been my dream car ever since I was a kid. I knew this car was underrated but I still like it. No I am not a smoker.

Say you own a rx8 without saying you own a rx8^🤣🤣🤣🤣

bad jokes and you re just trying 2 hard, good content, but the delivery......

Says the word “reliable” and then proceeds to play a clip of an rx8😭

Just sold my 5th gen prelude, gonna use the money to buy a z31 :)
