Only a true Toyota enthusiast would spend this much time on a engine that makes mid 100 H.P. love it

[@REAPER3fitty]

Well said.

[@madmod]

100hp in the right car is a blast. My 22r is in a 800lb sandrail

[@bhmsupra]

I wish you'd consider building another 22r like this one, putting it in a crate and shipping it to me. Not bluffing. Not in a rush. Very patient and willing to make a very fair deal for you sir.

[@tommyg7381]

You can always get a roll of gasket paper and make your own gaskets. The rolls come in cork and paper

[@user-ft2md2gd4s]

This channel is easily on the top of KZbin in this category. Top quality builds and top quality videos.

[@austinniemela]

Thank you!!!

[@Retroyoda]

@@austinniemela how much do you think the whole built was?

[@rudyrico6433]

Austin never disappoints with his work!

[@Operative114]

That engine is a work of art. The black, silver, and gold with red accents works so well.

[@DuanDao]

The color of that valve cover is amazing

[@gprz843]

Great job bro, don’t forget to seal the upper oil pump bolt too!!!

[@austinniemela]

Ah yeah I forgot about that bolt too!! Thanks!

[@marktrollope3094]

Aaaaah, my Toyota fix for the week - you're a legend!

[@dyrnenorka]

Man i just don't get why you don't have a million or more subscriber, you are a true artist in what you do. I really hope one day you get there you deserve it.

[@austinniemela]

Thank you! I hope so too!!

[@samuelnehil7858]

cant wait to hear the sound

[@davidteixiera8398]

Color combo is out of this world bro Lc engineering has the Teflon gaskets like I'm running on my 22R

[@johnrobert1053]

So clean! You always seem to out do yourself. The level you apply, to what I see is hands down some of the best. Keep it going

[@ejaokay]

You were not lying, that is a beautiful engine! There's nothing quite like assembling an R series engine on a stand. I did my 22re a few years ago and it was so much more enjoyable than wrenching in the engine bay. Super satisfying to slap it all together like Lego bricks.

[@ericsugalsku1826]

Austin I love your attention to details. With work and family I never seem to get everything as perfect as your builds. I just finished a year and half build on my 1979 K30 and I'm never quite satisfied.

[@billocampo1365]

That engine is sick, love the valve cover color and the rest..you really amaze me how meticulously you work..

[@austinniemela]

Thank you very much!

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Gorgeous 22R bro

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Great work Austin

[@poodymeiner3125]

[@waynesmith3057]

Love the look of the engine so sweet can’t wait to hear her run

[@moedalgarny]

that engine looks amazing

[@mahdialsenussi3066]

Nice work that engine looks amazing👍

[@mas.finland]

Your work has been so wonderful. Greetings from Finland

[@luiscruz-no3ib]

Use a 3/4 copper pipe seal the ends install below intake so can not be seen and you will have a vaccum chamber

[@Giroux68]

beautiful build, you do amazing work.

[@gabefernandez5915]

Clean work as always! 👍🏻

[@bishop2355]

That engine looks bad ass! Great Job!

[@dandorris8531]

Nice work, on a fresh rebuild with that style of oil pump, I like to pack vaseline in and around the oil pump gears to help create instant oil pick up upon engine crank to prime, Just a trick I learned years ago.

[@michaelmiller6062]

Wow. That’s gorgeous!

[@johncourtneyscott2757]

Almost there! That motor does look good

[@marcionunes5416]

O motor está ficando uma jóia!!! Um abraço do Brasil 🇧🇷

[@bailey7067]

Engine looks awesome man!

[@ValentinArzola]

Awesome video entertaining to watch definitely a Master Toyota Restoration.

[@JoseLima-fj3wu]

Greatings from Portugal 👍

[@victorrosario4109]

I Just found & bought a 1985 Toyota Hilux a few weeks ago with 223,000 miles on it, to use as my daily driver. Not realizing how famous this engine is. I can only dream of being able to do something like that to this engine one day. Awesome built. Cool video.

[@williamrose3920]

Can’t wait to see it all finished

[@mdmn8160]

Much love from Burundi 🇧🇮

[@xysmommy]

Great Video Brotha.

[@jesuscamarillo-reyes]

That is art😮 looks amazing

[@kkp0422]

Most beautiful 22r. Good choice of colors

[@DARKHORSE262]

I had my 22re rebuilt at 200k runs better than ever....strong reliability 🤟

[@josephdavis2427]

I pride myself on solid internals, no shortcuts and a killer looking engine dress. I tip my cap sir, great job!

[@tylersmith293]

That is pretty. Love the bronze.

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

That header looks sweet

[@guylongley1573]

Awesome job! I've built a butt load of those motor combos. From trucks to race cars.👍

[@martindelaconcha2300]

Awesome engine men !! So clean, I just put my hands on a 86 Toyota Tercel (3A Engine) and I look forward to follow your steps and give some love to my engine

[@MussaKZN]

The Toyota oil filter pushed me over the edge. You are the GOAT.

[@Max-ik9qb]

Killer work! That distributor though it's almost bigger than the entire motor.

[@simphiwedlamini40]

It is looking good my brother

[@becomingabetterhuman.2994]

One of my favorite engines of all time 22r/e, 4age, 3tc, and 2jz. I am a 16 year Master Ferrari technician.

[@456123defabc]

That looks awesome

[@noahvega1442]

Looks f***ing amazing homie👌🏽

[@tradeMark182]

Such a grow on the tube Austin .... great work on the build lets go OG subs

[@dezfan]

Engine looks tight.😎

[@i_run_far1132]

Looks incredible!

[@austinniemela]

Thank you!

[@christopherlmartin25]

OMG Austin's toy chest makes me jealous 🤣 so many cool trucks, I wanna get another 'yota to play around with. That engine is stunning and I can't wait to see it running and see how it drifts...

[@donkov5322]

Hell ya ,looks amazing as usual.

[@tashreeqdalvie7444]

Love it, process is job well done 👌😎💯

[@1971holden]

Yogi from Australia here, Love the vids mate... own a 2011 79 series land cruiser single cab, but also own a 1995 rn110r extra cab hilux which had the 22R in it, blew that motor up 3 times... (LOL)..... It now has a Holden L36 ecotec V6 in it, but recently picked up a Holden L67 Supercharged V6 that I will be putting in it soon, I'm not sure how things work in the US but here in Aus we need to do Engineering checks on engine conversions if your upgrading to bigger engines to drive on the road ( Oh the fun lol )... Loved the big red build from 2 years ago, I find myself re-watching that from time to time for inspiration....

[@adventurousairman]

Great job

[@algafrimohd681]

I admire you a lot and your job is clean. Keep it up. You have a great mindset in cars, and God willing, you will reach a million followers

[@austinniemela]

Thank you so much 👍

[@bmxtaz]

So clean, classy and elegant. Really surprised you didn't paint the head. Either way looks amazing.

[@charliebruceortega8447]

Everything looking good, gonna have to do a nice paint job

[@joesobaski1966]

Yea that color scheme🔥💥🔥💥🔥

[@rstezza]

This has to be one of the nicest colour combinations for an engine. Love it! (Gonna do my old school mitsu😉)

[@austinniemela]

Thanks! I am digging the colors as well!

[@rstezza]

@@austinniemela that’s satin bronze is too cool 👌

[@jvogler_art4708]

awesome build, i really wanna do a 20/22r hybrid build with dual webers in an old celica GT

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

The red Sets off the valve cover very nice whis there was accessories like that for the 5vz and a few other yota engines

[@270Remi]

Looks sick bud 🍻

[@Mike_Allegro]

So Clean!!!

[@RM_Garage]
