Doesnt change much, tho. Due to the wheel experiencing positive and negative acceleration (acceleration and braking)... So it either comes loose during acceleration or braking...

@@dave-ed5li You clearly aren't from this neck of the woods. They wouldn't - the obviously easier way is to weld in the front wheel so it doesn't turn then you can apply the drive. Of course you will ask how to steer it with a welded wheel - body balance 😉

@Honda 250R £8k for a Jaguar 4.2 supercharged engine!!! You need to have serious words with your engine guy unless that's the remanufactured price and includes them performing the engine swap. I can pick up an XJR engine with supercharger for £2000 also seen an ad for £1250 if I pull the engine myself. The V12 plenty of them on Ebay for £1000 the Ferrari engine on the other hand will cost you £16,000.

Rustbucket is probably 50. To get crap one- 500$. Good one is over 1000 but less than 2000. If you pay more than 2000 then expect museum quality or well restored one.

[@rikidiki8940]

Ive seen some importers bring ladas into usa but they want like 15k plus but then again they are low low mileage soviet survivors but still paying 20 grand for a lada is just hideous.. Importing one ypurself shouldnt cost more than few grand..

[@netrioter]

to get one imported to the United States...a shit Lada will fetch 5000 bucks

[@johnnyjimj]

The problem's not the purchase price but the red tape, regulations and transport fees. When I got my LandCruiser from Japan 14 years ago the purchase price was $9,000 but it cost me near $20,000 total once parked in my driveway because of all the BS and leeches taking their cuts along the way. Doing it yourself will save you tons of money, but be prepared to deal with a LOT of paperwork and hassles. It's not for no reason that they are so expensive compared to how little they sell for overseas.

[@Bigwompa]

Just the transportation fees can cost 3k easily.

*Video suggestions:* *1)* Take two transverse engines from e.g. a lada Samara and make a twin engine AWD lada. *2)* Find some old Russian tracked equipment (e.g a bulldozer) and make a Garage 54 style tank out of it; and then visit the Kubinka Tank Museum in Moscow with it....just for laughs...even capture the museum’s staff reaction to it. *3)* it would be epic if you could make a video together with the guys from Mighty Car Mods, Roadkill (if you can get pass their paywalls to contact them) or maybe the British lads from Bad Obsession Motorsports....make like a road trip through Russia roadkill style video with them or something.....or with the MCM guys; would be cool to see Russia from a car enthusiast POV and see the car culture there like they have done in some of their videos.

[@travisconnelly6659]

the way my single lug kit worked was there was a spring loaded pin against the lug to stop it from possibly turning. this pin was pushed in by the socket when changing the wheel to release the lug. Also my kit instead of using guide pins had a ribbed surface on the inside to make changine easier(dont have to match the pins up)

[@AlbiesProductsOnline]

The old jaguar wire wheels were Center nut only

You could modify the locknut to have the spacer instead of the rims, the wheel hub could be improved too.

[@yoctoflop]

Aww why is the video letterboxed :( makes the image smaller on my ultrawide

[@johnnyjimj]

Indeed, I hate the ultra-narrow format with a passion, makes me crane my neck and look for the cut-off top and bottom portions. It's no better on a wide screen because you can't see the left and right edges. It's so wrong in so many respects... Just like 'paper-white" backgrounds that'll kill your vision in 10 years. Fortunately, Garage 54 makes great videos so that compensates, but yeah, it's a major distraction, I wish they'd get back to a a vision-normal format - it's been proven that normal eye field of vision is closer to the 4:3 that the present 'letter box' that is such the rage nowadays. I sure hope to see common sense comes back in computer monitors as it's become almost impossible to find screens that aren't so 'vertically challenged' and that's the reason I hold on to my almost 10 year old 16:10 NEC PA310W screen and my vintage Viewsonic 21 inch 1600x1200 4:3 screen.

[@Seegalgalguntijak]

Ladas weren't developed in any classical sense at all. They were basically license builds of a Fiat automobile. Which is especially funny, since that Fiat came from the time when the Americans made Fiat into the acronym "Fix It Again Tony".

[@petelattimer6808]

they reused the bodyshell but used locally sourced (VAZ or AVTOVAZ as they were at the time i believe) engines into the 'Fiat' bodies. which explains to an extent why they used to rust so badly in the UK, given that Fiats, Alfa Romeos, Lancias etc (part of the same group) all rusted away rapidly also, in the 70s, to the extent where Lancia pulled out of the UK and hasnt returned!

[@TheYou05]

you guys should do the same style jacks they have on the formula 1 cars they are either air powered or hydraulic powered but they mounted into the car and it lifts the whole car at the same time

[@petelattimer6808]

no theyre not. they used to use them in touring cars but the weight is prohibitive in Formula 1. the jacks they use are more like a sack barrow style. someone goes in at each end with one, lifts the front or rear axle (whichever end theyre tasked to do) the giys change the wheels and the guys with the 'sack barrows' drop the jacks.

[@JermStone]

My 1967 Volkswagen Beetle had this style of nut. However, it also had cotter-pins to keep the nut from loosing completely off. I was once driving down the road from my house and I guess my driver rear side cotter-pin had rusted out... well the nut decided to come off... then the entire wheel! Haha it was a funny moment. Lucky my house wasn't to far away so I got a car jack, simply lifted the car and stuck the wheel back on. Put a new cotter-pin and good as new. I miss that car.

thats where the American term 'lug nut' came from, i believe. they were the type of nuts that physically had lugs on them! ive NEVER heard a born and bred (say, last 3 generations) person outside of North America (in a country that uses English as its 'mother tongue') call them 'lug nuts' UK doesnt, ive never heard Australians use the term either.

[@danbergthold3481]

Since Formula-1 is all about going fast, may I suggest fitting a spare MIG29 jet engine to a Lada? These can't be too hard to find over there. I predict a very high success rate! If you think rotational power with gear reduction might be more practical, maybe the engine/driveline from a helicopter would be better? Here's a good one that is sure to be readily available in your area: Klimov/Isotov TV3-117. With any luck, this engine may come with a big-ass machine gun and a variety of rockets. I am confident that you will find the most advantageous method for mounting these on the test Lada. Let's do this!

I've always wondered why they don't use a large lock washer behind the nut so you wouldn't have to worry about them backing off. Maybe there's a reason why and I'm just not aware of it.

[@daves2433]

I didn't see where to add a suggestion for new videos. This is boring, but test if it's really possible to warp disc brakes if you over tighten the lugnuts. Or don't use all of the nuts, that could be more interesting.
