Brake Clearance Wheel Templates & More - RA24 Toyota Celica Project

We fill the AE86 GTS rear end on Connie Celica, our 1977 Toyota Celica GT coupe, with Tomei Extra Power Train fluid using a fancy new fluid transfer pump, fix some issues with the front suspension, and use brake clearance templates from Work Wheels to see if a set of Equip 40's will clear the Fastbrakes.com 11'' front brake kit.

When Moose turns around with "I'm having a moment." I fucking died. Death by Moose!

[@Vr4joe]

We need more 'Measuring with Moose'!!!!

[@VS666]

im so glad you put the austin powers pump scene in there lol

[@coryhaynes8755]

I'm 4th? Greetings from Peterborough guys. Love that I've found a Canadian car channel

[@Shuttersound1]

Great episode! Really love seeing Connie come together gradually. Looking better all the time. :) Also, I burst out laughing at the second Measuring with Moose cut away with the Van Damme pipe music!

[@CJAEY]

Equip 40's are my favorite old school wheels. I hope you go for those!

[@davidbroadbent1878]

It's only right that Moose and Connie are breaking the new shop in; stay dirty fellas!

[@Simcard__]

Can't wait to see it drive! I have my own Celica, albeit a Mk2, and I'll be going down a very similar route to this with how I build it, just with a more period-correct powerplant.

[@mugshotmarley]

Thumbs up for the Austin Powers reference. Yeah baby

[@markproper9791]

Good choice on the equip 40's. they look awesome!

[@GstateOfMind]

You guys should have an official tv show series, would be great for car fans.

[@speedacademy]

That's what this channel is LOL

[@GstateOfMind]

Speed Academy i meant like on the gt channel or something on tv

[@0ttoman]

Lol at the optimum nutrition protein tub converted to a storage container 👍👌💪💪

[@mrolskul]

I knew it was just a matter of time before Connie Celica started bringing her celebrity friends along. I just can't believe Van Damme, or J.C., as she likes to call him, was the first. Bonne chance mon ami.

[@_chewwyy]

YASSSS! EQUIPS Please!

[@chadlafrennie4065]

Measuring with moose is the best thing ever

[@OctaneMonkey]

Those templates are super helpful!

[@keepingitstreet]

"Open slowly! Shits broken-->" 😂

[@bigmattolly4910]

Glad Connie found a new home. FD brakes would have been killer :( I bet you wish you put them on latter lol

[@speedacademy]

Who knows, they may find their way onto the car if the Wilwoods leave us wanting more.

[@Conchhhh]

Lmao I thought that what PT at the end swanging that sword around but it was just jean-claude

[@codyheizler7294]

You guys are great! Keep up the good work. Moose is hilarious. I wish I could meet you guys

[@RobertKohut]

Nice!! Moose looks smaller in the new shop....LOL...LOL

[@cristianjrosas2356]

1:48 Moose always cracks me up xD

[@topgun8683]

What do you feed moose to keep his energy up ?

[@speedacademy]

We call Mountain Dew "Moose Juice" around here...

[@kyleholmes7459]

Sugar and carbohydrates by the look of the guy.

[@Aiello_]

i was expecting some watanabe wheels but those look really nice too!

[@C42ST3N]

When you swap the steering nuckle, you will also change the steering geometry (Ackermann steering). So check if this is still correct after the swap.

[@johl88]

the equips are nice but a nice set from hayashi would be awesome

[@mondomoleno.3404]

I was hoping you'd say Watanabe RS. They always look killer on vintage Japanese cars.

[@elykus793]

Rally spec Celica, classic style

[@Garagetopics]

that flute track is lit

[@speedacademy]

haha, glad you like it :D

[@Kazi2812]

Great investment guys!

[@joeenright8031]

GET THE EQUIPS

[@cameronyoung2004]

Clean floors!

[@S-Kidz]

"lots of lug" ..... "Gotta whole lotta lug" dun dunna dun dunna dun "whole lotta lug" 🎶

[@Zerosoundz]

Love this series!!!!

[@SebastianUllrich1990]

Is that Piet at the end testing the new green screen?

[@AngelFloyd27]

Equip 40 ftw!

[@herihao797]

GREAT VIDEO.

[@bzzt_jgtc]

Hey Dave, if you havent ordered the wheels yet then why not order the wheel in lower offset instead of running a spacer?

[@Namesi]

Connie content ftw

[@shobud7561]

Does the LSD recommend for some type of conditioner additive along with the gear lube ?

[@SDGindustries]

Where did you get those fitment templates??? I am looking at getting equip 40’s but need to check clearance

[@BLUEVITZrs]

Green screen foolery FTW

[@ArchangelJuicy]

how much offset would be needed for some 17x8.5? i have a'73 celica and also want to add the trd flares as well

[@booniedog671]

Dave...what size wheels and offset did you end up ordering for yge work equip 40 wheels?

[@Zepolbboy]

30secs in and the noise from the lights I’m losing my mind 😂😓

[@speedacademy]

It is super annoying. We have LED light fixtures coming to solve that problem.

[@freestyleskyline]

Hey speed Academy! Since you arent using those rx7 caliper adapters, would you consider sending them to me? I've got a very similar setup on a 77 liftback gt with an ae71 wagon front end and t3 suspension.

[@1dickycat]

If it wasn't for the notification for this vid I wouldntnhave seen it. KZbin didnt even show it in my sub feed... #KZbinIsBroken

[@hitekcorolla]

Was that Pete or Jean-Claude at the end lol

[@alijeanes2742]

Struggling getting my hands on some templates on the equip 40’s. Any info? Workusa don’t want to reply

[@samdefoe1043]

ha Pete loves that label maker

[@karljay7473]

When is this thing going to be painted? Last I saw, it was being shipped out for paint, the BAM!! gone, no more videos???

[@mstSean]

What brand and model number is the fluid pump? I have a metal one similar to that and it leaks like crazy.

[@AutoMotiv8ed]

[@speedacademy]

Buy it here! amzn.to/2GZjuPV

[@garnicamark2892]

I could use that Mazda Brakes... Poor college student RA29 tuner here.

[@OhHolliwould]

awesome!

[@kobegenter8058]

When we finish our Celicas we should race them...

[@cristianjrosas2356]

Can I join too? Still have to finish mine haha

[@speedacademy]

Oh man, an all-Celica race would be awesome. Where are you guys located?

[@kobegenter8058]

I'm in Atlanta, Georgia 👋🏼

[@cristianjrosas2356]

Im all the way in Los Angeles haha But an all 1st get race would be awesome

[@speedacademy]

Alright gentlemen, we'll have to meet up in the middle somewhere, hell lets just do Pikes Peak :D

[@Bye401K]

What rear wilwood calipers are those as well as the bracket and what rotors did you go with to re drill??

[@speedacademy]

It’s a complete rear brake kit from fastbrakes.com

[@Bye401K]

@@speedacademy Thanks!!!

[@jackgtir1]

updates on s2000 , s14 etc etc ?!?!? so much suspense :P

[@oscarwalton1188]

What brand rim is that on the front

[@captainbarge]

Dropping Moose out you, feeling quite confident you

[@speedacademy]

Haha, Moose is just busy with his career so Pete and I are chipping away at it now that we have heat and space to work on it together. There will be lots more Moose in future episodes.

[@xXFIREWIREXx]

So I need to add a 3mm spacer to clear my Caliper. Any more and I’ll hit my arch with the tyre. When I use 3mm spacers I get wheel wobble as they are not hub centric and I can’t seem to find hub centric 3mm spacers . What’s the solution? Cheers

[@speedacademy]

That is a tough one to solve, but we would say run 5mm hubcentric spacers, like those made by ST Suspension, and roll your fenders slightly. www.st-suspensions.net/st/info/wheel_spacers/st_wheel_spacers

[@speedacademy]

Actually, it looks like ST has a 3mm hubcentric option in their D1 System spacers, so go check those out. They might do the trick for you.

[@boblast5582]

why did you guys decide to move the caliper to the front?

[@speedacademy]

That's where they're designed to be on AE86's and Celicas from this era.

[@deathbox6226]

Pete mad af

[@boblast5582]

lol @ austin powers reference

[@ovlraglvr]

6:38 I think its a little early to say that you know what you're doing.

[@speedacademy]

Hah, true story!

[@bigmattolly4910]

You will want s15 front end aswell lol

[@Kazi2812]

Moooooooooooooooose!

[@rocky_top_deluxe]

VAN DAMME > DAMME FLUTE

[@joenobody4191]

Lol van dam that was good

[@SupraHenry]

Measuring with moose..... just sends it lol

[@NolanGrieb]

I have about 1mm of clearance between my wheels and caliper... send ittttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

[@HassanEido1]

More mooooseeee

[@punkbloater]

Is it unusual to mount the breaks infront of the rotor like that? Don’t think i’ve seen that much before, might be my slack brain not registrering it though...

[@emc3065]

punkloader some Porsche's have them mounted at the front. Definitely seen it before.

[@speedacademy]

We haven't come across it before, it caught us out at first but I think we finally have it sorted lol.

[@oisinmcdaid]

Forgot your apostrophe in the drawer warning. How do you expect people to not break stuff when you can't speak properly England.

[@speedacademy]

haha, can't speak properly England, indeed!

[@CascadingDream]

Moose gets under Connie's bonnet once again!

[@ThePointlessBox_]

THE MOOSE IS LOOSE

[@broadwayline]

Yo DP! What brand of coffee do you prefer, and what do you take in it?

[@speedacademy]

haha, I drink tea more than coffee, if I'm honest. When at Timmie's I go with a steeped tea double double.

[@broadwayline]

A true class act DP!

[@speedacademy]

100% class, for sure :D

[@cgmachanic]

How did you get those templates?

[@speedacademy]

Our friend Dominic from Nuke Performance sent them to us. He has Equip 40's on his Datsun 240Z which we saw at SEMA in the Toyo Tread Pass area and got to chatting to him about it. Shoot him an e-mail and I'm sure he'd send them to you, or shoot me an e-mail at [e-mail] and I'll send them to you.

[@cgmachanic]

Speed Academy thanks!!!!!

[@zero_to_1000]

#shittymechanic

[@rocksteady8986]

I had high hopes for this build. Everyone's going "Drift Spec" and this ruined it for me. Unsubscribed.

[@Sincee1809]

I think the sentence with "drift spec" was a joke.

[@tomahoks]

Good bye

[@e32amgfinatic]

When you assume you make an ass out of you and me

[@speedacademydave]

lol the thumbnail was a joke. It's not a drift build.

[@nayybe]

its obviously not a drift car if you watch thier videos you would know that they have drift cars they are going to build
