Building a 3 STAR Engine Almost Broke Me // Car Mechanic Simulator 2021 Gameplay

[@420metalguy]

to everyone playing, if you get the skill that gives you a bonus crate after you do a job you can just do quick gear box changes stack crates and get thousands of parts in a matter of minutes instead of spending hours buying and scraping parts

[@zajaka4164]

Crates also can give the scrap points themselves, I'm sitting at 20k scrap points (or whatever you call the blue currency) from just doing barn finds and opening crates, not scrapping parts at all just selling them.

That was funny. All this space... and they give you a shad. In Arizona. A small metal shed with poor ventilation. Honestly there should have been a scrapping bench in the workshop. So many stations that you don't need.

I do like the cozy wee shed out the back though. It's a nice change from the large open space. But yea, there'd better be some kind of aircon in there XD

[@shadoudirges]

You should give the gearbox 6 gears with the first gear shifting at somewhere between 35-45 mph then working down to the last gear at 220+ mph. You want to get it to where the car changes gears at redline and so that shifting doesn't drop the rpms too low like below 4000 rpm. Unfortunately the only way to do this is to tweak and then try it on the track which is a lot of back and forth. It's an involved process if you want to get some semblance of top speed potential.

[@animestein]

Nice job on that engine, now we can answer the questions on the value of scrap improvements. When the car is done it should be colored red or black, Red if its a financial loss and black if its turns a profit lol. Also I watched yesterdays video of the monster 370Z before leaving for work. As I was walking through the parking lot, that exact car passed me, only difference was it was a convertible and a slightly different red color. So a real life Diesel mechanic exist in the world, rejoice!

[@Shahinn73]

In gearbox tuning, by adding more gears you can have better performance. In this case you could add 2 more gears to achieve 6 gears and better performance.

[@Zown-ej3fl]

I find it cheaper to buy a 2,000 or a 3,000 dollar car at the junk yard and completely strip it for parts rather than buying every part you scrap. It takes more time but you are also getting experience and that helps if you are a lower level

[@drewallen7028]

I was down to 132 Credits last night doing a full rebuild on an R34. Unlocked the engine shop so swapping the crank was easy, but I seriously thought I was going to have to start over.

[@Mr.Red_Beard_OG]

The more stars it has the more parts you get, you got a lvl 1 seat and the parts went up to 2,3,4 so it is like you said you wanted it diesel 😁

[@mavadelo]

I always forget to buy certain things. Piston Rings and the Clutch Release Bearing are the most common culprits.

[@chrism869]

This game is so accurate, like you can't take of that before you unbolt this, well irl I would be like How tf am I was supposed to know

i’ve been thinking to myself so much about how it should be 1, 3, 5 for the scrap and i though about it again while Diesel was explaining it and boom he says what i’ve been thinking 😂 good to know i’m not the only one and i bet many of you think the same

[@HAYL0W]

are all those bolts 3 stars? i think not...... haha great videos man. its funny how real this is while also being far from real.

[@TG-yb9vv]

Best way to do this is to go to scrap auction and buy the 1 star v8s that have almost fully built engines u can get them for like 5k u take everything apart wash it weld it and clean interior sometims u make profit sometimes u lose 3k

You actually do get more bonus for parts with stars

[@LazloRTR]

Tried to do this a while ago. Three star-ing everything including stuff like rod cap and oil pan, halfway there realize all the upgrades are gone. Few days later patch 1.0.3 rolled out 2k+ scrap, few hours, and hundreds if not thousands scrapped hours down the drain, fml

[@NICKSSHOP]

in the performance parts you cannot paint the fuel filter or some of there parts but stock you can

[@ElegantKa0s]

I have close to 45K salvage, just from buying all parts in a barn and salvaging every part from cars I buy at auctions, junkyard and barns. I always put new parts on anyways, so it makes no difference to me to scrap parts. At one point I had 270+ pages of parts to salvage, I didn't care about the bonuses, took half an hour to rapid tap A to salvage them all.

[@daveb.4383]

3 Star Tires and rims are gonna help a heck of a lot with traction and upgrading the rear end of the car too! Can I offer a suggestion of doing the 3:73 mustang rear end final gear ratio as well to the dyno tune? I wish I could offer you all the spare parts I have available for upgrades I have over 10K right now. Just be glad not all of the actual engine parts are in this simulator don't forget there are more bearing caps than it uses for a crank and bolts plus hoses and wires as well as lifters that go against the cam shaft that the push rods set into. Fuel lines and so much more man! Don't forget breaking down the heads and valves and valve springs and keepers too plus all the bearings! LOL

[@jamesfactora6276]

Regarding scrapping starred parts, I saw you scrap a 1 star seat and it gave 2 scrap for success, 3 scrap for bonus and 4 scrap for big bonus

[@DieselDesigns]

Indeed! I want MORE, though!

The stars give more scrap 3 stars give six as a bonus 3 as a starter also barns are the best place for scrap as there is more star items there

[@LaffyWaffy89]

Upgrading parts is great option but only thing I hate is the breaking down parts to get scraps quantity is very low and grinding is tedious hope they increase the scraps u get in future

[@shugo22]

i did a tempest magnum with a V8 supercharged it costed 25k-30k scrap the fact we need to scrap 10k-30k parts to do these kind of build makes this the worst system ever i feel bad for abusing my spacebar this way

[@boingboingerson1649]

you dont actually, just box farm and get 100 - 400 scrap or more, not every box but enough of them that itll be a hell of a lot faster than individual part scrapping

[@skeeterb2006]

I've played the game long enough that I grew my funds to over 5M creadits. It doesn't hurt your wallet to grab stuff out of the junkyard or barns to get enough scrap to upgrade your performance parts all up to 3 stars, with that kind of funding. it doesn't help the performance to upgrade non performance parts. The few parts you grabbed that were repairable, I think you should have kept to use on other cars.

[@alexanderhartmann6995]

I've build a complete Porsche Carrera GT with 3-Star parts. every part of it, that has a quality-ranking got an upgrade and full performance parts :D

I'm going to say I'm not a fan of the salvage system in this game I personally think the values need to be somewhere around I think somewhere from 1 to 10 but no higher than 10 And I've had some more ideas for DLC I think a diesel DLC for like the big diesel semis you see all over the place would really be cool

[@bandsiam980]

he was talking about how a one or more star item should give more scrap they do haha when he scrapped the chair at 8:56 is gave more scrap

[@kennethkreinheder3169]

Your gears are set too close, try setting them farther apart to stop the spinning out on the speed track and smoother gear shifting

[@mista-ys5if]

It’s easier to go ahead and 3 star the rod caps and the other caps and like the push rods but then I’ll go and build the whole engine, dump everything out my pockets and scrap what I need to then I’ll go ahead and pull it apart and 3 star all that stuff

[@txcavi]

You didn't see that 1 star scrap was worth more, it was 2,3,4. Instead of 1,2,3

[@rjgrala54]

Diesel, if you scrap parts that already have stars, you get more scrap

[@xHoosierDaddy85]

If you go that route fix scrap you can sell to get money or build random car and sell it to profit off that with all the lower condition parts you can fix scrap it rather then selling for couple dollars. I do anything under $10 to $15 parts scrap it and only performance parts. The cars i do keep i will go back and upgrade the parts after gathering a ton of upgrade points

just got done with my v8 dohc supercharged it's pumping around 1350 hp. it's crazy

I'm not quite understanding how you get 3 stars on all items. Is it finding scrap or upgrading your tiers

Why not just mass buy items on the regular "store" that cost 5 creds, they give 2-3 scrap depending on your skills, and its the cheapest source of scrap (things like valve rod)

You can't scrap stuff that has 100% durability, I'm assuming this was done on purpose to avoid exactly what you suggest
