20 Cozy Minutes of Just Building a DSM - DSM Chassis Swap Ep 3

[@am55255]

Us: “Buy a clean chassis to swap into.” Ben: “Best I can do is a cut up chassis.”

[@IntrepidCraft]

definitely a buy cheap cry twice series 😹

[@skoparweaver7692]

@@IntrepidCraft More like cry over and over again. First he buys a car that had all sorts of issues along with the rust. Got it tuned, but then had engine issues. Now a new chassis that also has its share of issues. It looks mostly rust free, but not completely. Now it needs to have some welding or something done to fix the removed parts. Great series, but he's got nothing but headaches with this car.

doing same stuff 3 times in a row. Not idea. Do it once and properly. But again. We are on youtube where more videos = more fun?

[@chase276]

Love how Tall Bens videos are “suave lofi chill building” and Short Ben ones are “AERO. RACING. HONDA RAHHH”

[@dwen_.]

LMAOO

The best balance of content

LMAOOOO NAH FR 😭

[@timothyb5576]

Warning: this video contains Ben’s crack 😂😂🤣

[@dela_Fulton]

Crack kills 😂😂😂

[@Willdrknght]

I was going to say the build is getting to him….. the cracks are showing 😂

[@droid1008]

builder's crack, get mark to drop a quarter in

[@colbydc5]

Gears and Crack-so-lean

[@darthdarovit]

I'm just here for the chapter titles

[@suckviper4585]

it's

[@alexelrod242]

Chassis titles are sometimes more entertaining than the actual video, and it's one of mynfavorite channels to watch

[@GODZILLA938]

Dude fr Ben be cooking up some nice titles lmao 😂

[@xrtango]

As an Australian, I gotta say, your aussie accent is on point (again).

[@Willdrknght]

Practice makes perfect 👌🏻🇦🇺

[@TheJoelProctor]

I still get a hint of New Zealand from it but it’s definitely still good for a chuckle

[@steventonkin89]

We'll see how Ben says GTR then we'll know how Aussie he really is 😅

[@robvanderwilk7159]

Don’t encourage Ben. Great to see PWR products though!

[@LJ_Jeff]

​@steventonkin89 you mean GDARRR

[@thijshoogenbosch5151]

'They don't watch the build video's'. Me always hyped for a new build video!

[@hydratedrobert1890]

Fr these videos are goated

[@jeffreymoore4132]

As someone who cleans his bolts before reassembly, I definitely care about ALL the things that are never seen. I also watch all of the build videos. EVERY SECOND.

[@claudelawrence2775]

I appreciate what Andrew did, replacing the frame gussets in the rear. I was worried when you mentioned the cut sections then the next shot had interior bits covering them. Whew!

[@gonzoe123]

As I have said in every other DSM video, PA is not the problem. Maryland is significantly worse. The real problem, which you finally talked about in this video, is any state that puts salt on the roads. As someone who was a PA safety inspector in Lancaster county, I can tell you that your first DSM would not have passed inspection. If it had “current” stickers, they were either fake or the “inspector” committed fraud.

[@vehicularMCS]

You guys do such a good job. Your videos make me get out in the garage and work on my own junk. I love you, Bens. And Mark, I guess.

[@BjornFSE]

it's the "I guess" for me 😅 you took it personally when he called us out for being the worst didn't you 😂🤣

[@TH700R4]

The fact you keep referring to it as a Talon leads me to believe it’s staying a Talon, which makes me happy. The Eagle Talon was one of the first cars I lusted over as a little kid, even before knowing it was an Eclipse in sheep’s clothing so to speak. Looking forward to seeing the final product!

[@MigueMax1000]

No sound deadening added back into the chassis you will regret that if you want it for a street car

[@bruiserdotcom]

tin can life

[@laddtryck]

Id say he should be using alot of sounddeadening, its easy now when there is no interior. Its nice to have a quiet car.

[@dusterpl6093]

It utterly saddens me that you've chose to keep the Talon rear end instead of the one from Eclipse

[@kj.team-apex]

I was looking for someone to say the same thing😂 Eclipse rear looks much better than the Talon one imo

[@robo1000]

Thank you Mark for putting up with us.

[@BraveClam]

I just got back to the states from Brisbane AUS to visit some friends we met in Cabo, and I have got to say your Aussie accent is insanely good lol

[@gundamzaku214]

when it's all good and done, this will be the most awesome diamond star on this channel, no offense Lana.

[@raymondmaravilla1725]

Sorry Mark.. I was one of them asking for a swap. 😅 but i can see the light at the end of the tunnel and driving a built AWD DSM. Hopefully you get it fully set up so you can daily it and actually enjoy it. P.s i do care and i do watch the built videos!..

[@ardains7041]

Im starting to believe he's specifically choosing australian companies for parts at this point just to do the accent

[@Powersproductions130]

This series has honestly made me never wanna touch a DSM of any kind. 😂😂

[@ricecakeFTW]

Crawled up in bed with the flu I open up KZbin to find a new G&G episode, made me feel a little better. ❤️

[@5415vega]

Remember kids, crack kills

[@isaiahdanielvlog]

Lmaoo😂😂😂

[@SilasZoeBell]

I’m here for the build videos. I don’t care much for the racing…because that’s other people having fun that I can’t be there for.

[@miker8982]

At least you guys are saving a classic Automotive historic car. I know it’s not a JDM Legend, but it was part of the 90’s import scene era!

[@DanielSanGiuliano-hk3hl]

Love this build series, something about the whole crazy swap process makes seeing the talon come together even more exciting

[@MrBlizz-ht7cw]

Can’t hide those inspection stickers from me 😏 I’m glad you saw it

[@michaelblacktree]

I can tell Mark is really stoked for this build. 😛

[@jackychng25]

Respect you still have the will to work on it. This is typical example for fab b4 test, test b4 design. Previous owner has no clue what they doing, just cut cut cut, fab fab fab. The mit belongs to junkyard 😊

[@1Gabrieldiaz]

I dont know how you fund to make these videos/projects. But salute to you, because I love them 👍

[@Shrrby]

The flamenco backing track for the later half of the episode was choice! Started having Ace Combat Flashbacks

[@easydayez]

TOP 3 Mods for BEN! 1# Suede wrap the dash and headliner and backseats. 2# RECARO Sportster CS Seats 3# Aim mxp 1.3 strada Cluster with backup camera Now your nice and comfy...

[@jacksun_jack]

That Aussie accent is getting better and better, you best be booking a trip down here soon.

[@zacks240sx]

imma be real bens aussie accent hits

[@madhurjo.karmaker]

After these things, get a handsome body kit, get some new wheels, choose a paint, and hand it over to Automotive Aesthetics. Keep it up!

[@speedacademydave]

The Internet: "Chassis swap it, it'll be easy" 😂

[@brainflattener]

i hate electric cars as much as the next guy but that “electric cars have no SSoul” sticker gives so much nazi

[@h.ekingweaselesq1798]

Glad to see two eclipse in one week on the interweb. Good build but only one thing bothers me, that fitting in the tank needs to flip. The nut will vibrate off in the tank.

[@552jacki3]

"It's 11:54" I freaking love these chapter titles 😂

[@adrianwilson725]

This me doing a ton load of work on a not so good decision😂and my mother is there looking at me the way Ben showing Andrew what was done for a cage😂

[@_adaline]

I’m just here for the chapter titles

[@BuyongoPhiri]

That Australian accent attempt by Ben is funny. 😂

[@wheelg307]

I like it that you had the fuel regulator bracket painted and not the rest of the things swapped, like the prop, the stitch weld on the back, etc… ✊🏽👌🏽

[@LRSTGS]

I've been watching you guys for years. You've provided me countless hours of entertainment. I have Asperger's and sometimes life is overwhelming and watching stuff like this really calms me down. I just wanted to say thank you. Sometimes you provide massive comfort to people you've never even met. That's pretty special and worthwhile. I know it's not why you do it, but it's a nice side effect.

[@Joe-mf4jx]

Good on you for not cleaning and painting parts as you swap them. My adhd would make me and then the project would stall

[@jawzdeadeye]

Rude. LOL. I have my morning Saturday coffee and relax during the build videos. Keep it up guys. Driving that rebuild Talon soon. I'll be there.

[@iHeeRov2]

As a PA resident trying to find a non rusted car these days is so tough.

[@fernandocaracciolo]

Apparently Ben also works as a plumber ok the weekends

[@Yulla_mx5]

Ow hey I drive pwr every day and I’m running a pwr radiator in my mx5. Also please convert the talon rear end to the eclipse xoxo

[@MegaRetr]

You guys do such a good job))

[@samGD3]

Ben Lin’s musical taste 👌🏽

[@HCmotorsports]

Please dont leave eagle rear end on it, eclipse tail lights and bumper looks 100x better

[@pneumaticdez23]

I need those eclipse doors.

[@davidgray6852]

Should of took the out side door handles off before you scraped it. They sell fast and easy

[@Dirtyz1234]

"IT'S A GOOD CAR!"

[@jaybeaster]

I'll be honest, I cared VERY much about those rear supports haha but I'm also a lil drunk so take that with a grain of salt.

[@evo6swap]

Awesome work

[@RC-Elevation]

I get that it's a Talon, but are you not able to swap over the Eclipse rear lights and bumper? Just looks a lot better in my opinon.

[@matthewmohri9990]

I haven't even watched the video and I know the title is deceptive if it would have been 20 Cozy minutes of just building a K20/24 swap I'd be okay...DSM Oh Hell No, this is going to be Hell...LOL The first thing I pictured when I saw the title of this was Ben literally trying to choke this DSM like Homer Simpson choking Bart...In fact Ben, you can take this name from me but my personal name for your DSM is going to be Bart Simpson b/c a cool car but a huge pain in the ass for you. Your turbo'd LS1 was far better, I think we all miss that beast, please make another one pretty please with sugar on top!

[@redeclipzegsx]

Had to take my HKS catback to a muffler shop as well to work with my 3 inch RRE downpipe because of the 2.25 reducer. What was HKS thinking lol

[@dimitriliving]

At this point I think Ben buys Aussie parts so he can keep doing the accent 😂

[@tiagobelo4965]

Remember: 99% of dsm chassis swappers stop one last thing before the swap is perfect

[@juniormeyer27]

I had a 91 Eclipse GST. Made good power and was a quick almost sleeper. I now drive a 5n Tiguan with a mark 6 GTI motor also fwd and it’s insane how similar they feel. I know yours is AWD but still there will always be something special about a proper turbo 4. Anyone who has driven any EA888 will likely know what I mean.

[@shineything4444]

ngl with the old chassis i wanna see what happens if its submerged in an entire tub of evaporust for a week or two and see how much car is left lol

[@lagundafire]

That Spanish guitar impressions was awesome, I loved it

[@TheCarSouls]

Tell me you're going to give it the Eclipse body parts. Talons are ugly. Love this build though.

[@gregoryrobinson1004]

We do watch the build videos at least some of us. Long live dsm

[@karmatose]

The link for Eclipse merch in the description does not function.

[@Kevwa51]

Odd question, but what was your shop before? There’s epoxy marks all over the floor consistent with the marks left behind by a “raised floor” that you’d see in a data center or a lab at say Lockheed Martin. Sorry, I’m an eagle eyed electrician that’s worked at those sorts of places and noticed it the first time you showed the new shop.

[@GearsandGasoline]

Used to be an IBM server room

[@JANEMBA9000]

Why would you not want the carbon fiber trunk 😢 . You want to put back on a heavy stock trunk ?????

[@Frodokeuh]

just when i thought ben is not gonna do the aussie accent when talking about PWR and and a min later... 🤦🤣

[@emperorgsx]

Coming alone great😎🤙

[@fernanaquino2482]

Should have swapped the rear end of the eclipse to the talon. The talons bum looks ugly

[@VasileiouDimitris]

you got keep the rear bumper and taillights from the eclipse. nice work though

[@Matthew-jl6gl]

Hello, I am desperately looking for a decent radiator for my big-turbo 2G Eclipse; Is that PWR Radiator one-off? I seriously cannot find the one you've shown that's 1:1 on their website, or I'm blind. Thanks!

[@chandravraticsharma6011]

We do watch the build videos 19:53

[@CorpseExplosion]

I'm really glad this is running long. Very enjoyable to see more of the process. Edit: I care about the cross-member brace thingy!

[@David-eq8wf]

Good luck on track boys and love the title chapters

[@jonathanstermer2665]

As a resident of PA, where do I get that Pennsylvania car slander merch?😂

[@mitchroberts1604]

I think Ben should do an entire video with the Australian accent.

[@rabbitgti652]

🙋🏼‍♂️ here for the fire!

[@sooyster4033]

Immaculate vibes with the John Mayer soundtrack on this one

[@_drag]

Please change out the return fitting on the FPR from a barb fitting to an AN fitting. Had my evo catch on fire due to it blowing the return line off while I was also running a w450

[@functiongarage]

Love this build series! People still want to see the basic stuff. I can appreciate the mix between voiceover and camera work!

[@jamesmchenry4708]

It's interesting to think that I knew people who built these cars. It's interesting seeing what it takes to do it yourself, instead of in a factory with many robots.

[@martyhowie75]

You should have said at the end “it’s a good car”

[@twistingterrain7748]

Part of the Terrible Crew 😊

[@MapleMonarchy]

Still some parts you could strip off the car and sell. Like the doors, tail lights and other little things. I am a fellow DSM owner so I’d hate to see and decent parts go to waste. But maybe that’s just me

[@cabe_bedlam]

I'll be a good car, Ben!

[@aaroninskeep4533]

Are you spotted by Kum n Go? That's my local gas station lol

[@riceball4u172]

Should have repaint entire shell before putting everything back

[@savensat]

"they dont watch the build videos" Me right now

[@b3r15ky]

I didn’t think I would enjoy this video this much! Dope guitar beats!

[@turrainho9753]

Thanks Andrew for fixing the rear crossmenbers

[@DirtDude117]

Gotta say I do love these style of build videos! Especially the not-needed welding

[@SamLeung]

lol, never stop the aussie accent😂

[@Dirtbagmoto1]

Tip for wrestling a driveline in while it way up like that is to use a transmission hoist we keep a couple 2x4s nailed together to hold them steady if you don't have an extra set of hands.

[@mattwillow7]

Watching this video I can only say: Been there, done that - BMW F21 114i converted to M135i xDrive - I will never do anything like it again😅

[@christopherharris6005]

Awesome video as always Ben and Mark.

[@danielsoon0302]

15:30 - Ben turns Australian for a bit..

[@HankeB]

I'm trying to buy that rusty bolts shirt and the link doesn't seem to work. Help

[@java090]

The cars get worse but the music gets better
