DRIVING the $38,500 MCLAREN!!! (FIRST DRIVE in 3 YEARS after the Crash)

[@TheInja]

Man, what a positive comment section. YOU GUYS are the true gangsters here, thanks for all the help along the way so far!! Wouldn't have made it this far without you!

[@Beauloqs]

Well earned, its been a right roller coaster for you........one kick in the nuts after the other.

[@paulvaz5846]

Man!!! That thing is an hybrid between a semi tractor and an F1, it just sounds maaaaad. Before I was like, hummm yeah okay it’s a McLaren but after earring that one, daaaaammmm

[@speedythunder1995]

Indeed lol, I just love the content that you dish out. I see that it’s your first time and how highly energetic and creative plus being focused you are while not being arrogant about what you’re doing.

[@hateju]

Yes. It's not that easy to tackle all the things that these car's throw at you. Might look easy in 20-30min video. But when you work for 5 months at it..😬

[@Bigolme]

Couldn’t of happened to a more humble guy congrats man

[@ELECTRICBIKEDIYLIFE]

Your rebuild makes me think of my Mom's Camaro. A while back she sideswiped a truck and the passenger door got messed up pretty bad. AAA sent her to a shop to get it replaced and the insurance had the shop sourcing a brand new door which means it would have to be fabricated. The cost would've been huge as well as her deductible. Then me, her super intelligent and inquisitive son, lol, starting looking on eBay for 2010 Camaro doors. There are a ton of them on there. I found what she needed for a few hundred as opposed to thousands of dollars. She got ahold of AAA, they got ahold of the shop and now one side of the Camaro looks brand new for a lot less. Thankyou, thankyou, no applause necessary, lol again.

[@ImageVillage]

Dude one of our favourite builds, seeing you smile and watching you drive around the block.....epic! This is so good. 👌🏻

[@mkuhlman77]

That's the best feeling in the world when you get to first ride your project.

[@TheInja]

So good. 💯

[@speedythunder1995]

I waited months for this video update 😂I first started watching your videos when you dealt with the Chinese scammers and buying bikes from China, darn you have came a long way bro keep up the good work.

[@TheInja]

Appreciate you, what a journey so far. 🙌🏽

[@ripn929707]

​@@TheInja The chinese scam car was when I discovered your channel too... I loved the way you made lemonade content out of that lemon. 🤘🤣

[@Eatongee]

So cool! I'm so happy for you. Looks awesome with those gold wheels too. Great looking car. Great personal triumph.

[@jackblack3886]

Your expression says it all ! That first ride! Congrats!

[@AdamMacleod83]

I'm SO PROUD of you, such a huge achievement and you've faced everything head on ❤

[@geewoods6590]

Im smiling as you are driving it for the first time! Congrats dude, you deserve it

[@Andrew-ve6it]

Dude, that is incredible!! Awesome to see your reaction. Nothing is better than that feeling of all that hard work paying off!

[@TheRealAlpha2]

(Applause!) Glad to see it make the run around the block, finally! People talk about how "Every KZbinr has a Maclaren," but it's still always an achievement worth celebrating when you fix a dream car after months of hard work, no matter how many time it happens.

[@TheInja]

Agreed. Beyond blessed. 🙌🏽

[@uatuthewatcher6716]

Congratulations on getting the car running an driving 🤘😎

[@Daytonafox1]

Well done my guy. Awesome

[@hunterlude]

Its an amazing feeling getting it to run and drive status with countless hours of work finally paying off. Congrats man!!!

[@TheInja]

Best ever. Thanks brother!

[@scootguy85]

Proud of you for sticking with it and making your dream come true. I'm happy for you!!!!!

[@CRF_RM_XS_CR]

Love this series, one of the best out there, and your determination to suceed is very infectious and a joy to see. Keep up the great work and looking forward to the next episode.

[@simon871]

Such a great feel good moment for you,pleased for you man, keep pushing you will get there

[@cardroid8615]

Lol. Great job mate. So happy for you. Great to see you so happy too whilst driving that bad boy for the first time! Can't wait to see more!

[@FrankJames-vk1fy]

I know how exhilarating that feels. I restored 69 Z28 and 69 corvette 427/390hp coupe. First drive was amazing....Good luck with the rest of your build. Enjoying the vids.

[@Daniel_Blake]

What an epic moment. Always awesome seeing something you've worked hard on showing signs of life. Only up from there. Keep up the good work.

[@prashantharatnayake5764]

Wow! Congratulations!!! So happy for you man.

Wooo you did it brother! Congratulations!

[@hojo9115]

Really happy for you, every hour of hard work finally pays off congrats

[@a.d.7042]

I really like the way you are approaching this project, you don´t just buying new parts and install them you are fixing them!!!

[@swifty_8054]

Congrats man!!! I have been following along since the beginning and am stoked to see you finally drive it!!!

[@TheInja]

Thanks a ton!!

[@Harvy500]

Nice car!! Looking forward to seeing it finished!! Keep going ahead sir!

[@delisasadventures6609]

[@jakereal3604]

I knew you had this!!! All those countless hours are paying off. Great work in true INJA style. So happy for ya bro! You're the coolest for sure. Rock Steady !!!!!

[@TheInja]

Thanks Jake! 🔥

[@YoureNottheonlyonehere]

GZ Dude nice Work. You can be proud of yourself. Very awesome

[@markblunsum6164]

Great to see you actually driving the car! And all done in your garage without the specialist facilities other KZbinrs have access to - phenomenal! 😊

[@charlesml3]

Man I grinned all the way through that. Congratulations! Your enthusiasm is so inspiring!

[@nurburgringuk]

Always looks forward to the next video, so satisfying seeing the joy of progress.

[@jakez_garage]

Hell yes! One of the best rebuilds on KZbin! This is sick man!

[@TheInja]

Thanks, Jake!!

[@mrtdiver]

In a strange way I have a greater appreciation for my Toyota car & pickup. My parts are cheap. It's easy to do maintenance. And they've been reliable. Congrats to you. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride. Some of your best content IMHO. The heart & soul of the car is the engine. I still recommend Pennzoil Ultra Platinum oil. It's cheap and the best for the $$. I'm looking at 5 quart 5W-30 for $30 @ Walmart.

[@mikemcguffin6528]

Looking good

[@Di_VaLa]

Congrats man .!!! The sound of that mclaren sounds incredible .!!! Looking forward for more videos of this beast !!

[@TheInja]

Can't wait to hear it with a titanium exhaust!!

[@EdDavenport-i1h]

Congratulations! Been watching the series with bated breath! Definitely a car I’d love to have one day!

[@taylorbaldt8296]

Love this build and your excitement Been following since the beginning can't wait to see it done!

[@b6s4shelter]

You're fun to watch. Congrats. Beats the daylights out of ebikes. Backing up I was like "look out for the Lambo!" Sweet vid.

[@Sputz3]

Congratulations Inja! 🎉🎊😎

[@billkim1870]

Congrats for the very first drive!

[@e.user.2226]

Good on you for getting this car sorted out !

[@EdwardChew]

Congrats! Thank you for making one back on the road!

[@61corvettetv94]

Great job! I was working on a car an was about to give up until I started following you.

[@kings3803]

Nice one the look on your face when it moved was priceless.

[@derekcrowe2886]

Cool to see her running and driving. Sounds sweet.👌👏

[@humbertojuhasz1475]

That's amazing for tbe first drive, it runs very good, I can hear the turbo spinning, allmost everything is working.

[@reggiexp69]

i love the progress on this channel, from testing e bikes and electric scooter mopet things. to now owning a lamborgini anda mclaren... and a nice mercedes also not to forget

[@taylorkutlass6220]

So good to see the first drive! 🔥

[@gregorymilanovich4384]

Congratulations! When you finally button up the project just remember to fully understand the power & capabilities of the McLaren before you decide to push the envelope. Take a look at MONDI's 1st outing with his newly acquired 1 of 1 SENNA. His show boating caused him some extremely expensive problems. Do your all your testing in a very large vacant parking lot with no obstructions. Be safe...have fun...remember all of the work that you put into the project...& don't be stupid!

[@TheInja]

For sure. 💯

[@jvrhussle]

🎉🎉🎉 Congrats, I can wait to see it when is completes. Im enjoying the process

[@MusicHavenSG]

Congrats! Even if there are still a couple of error codes, getting the engine and the car to be drivable enough is more than good enough!

[@HayPOWER-PR]

Nceeee brother ❤💪🏼💪🏼🔥🔥🇵🇷

[@robertsmith5475]

🎉happy for you brother, keep up the good work

[@kramer8865]

Good luck with the spark plugs and ignition coils, from what I have seen in other peoples videos it is not a pleasant job. But congratulations this has by far and away been one of the most ambitious projects on the channel and you are crushing it.

[@racingfortheson]

Thanks for the hard work of videoing while you worked on this for us to get to enjoy seeing the joy on your face. So genuine 🤘🏼

[@TheInja]

👊🏽 Love the community you guys brought.

[@josiahhein6036]

Awesome man! Way to go!

[@melvinrawlings1457]

Man I happy for ya brother. I'm smiling as ur smiling. Much love to ya from Maryland❤❤❤

Yes mate can’t wait to see the finished product

[@johnnykjaersgaard7978]

The smile on your face - absolutely priceless - it sounds awesome 💪🏻😊❤️

[@69Dartman]

More steps forward than back, awesome dude and now you can figure out what's left. Moving is always a good thing. The transmission is a quick shifting beastie for sure. 👍

[@TheInja]

Yep, on to making it look the part now 😎 Thanks Dartman!!

[@king69king1]

People always fail because they don’t give it their best. But you sir. Did it without thinking about it and succeeded. Congratulations 🎉🍾🎈 💯👍keep up the good work.

[@MRinguette]

Congrats dude! Can't wait to see it with body panels on!

[@TheInja]

Same 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@Kailothefxiry]

Super crazy journey seeing it from start to finish omg when will it end it finally did and you have the dream car now huge unspoken and just got my license

[@LIGHTBULBCODING]

Nice video. What a mini victory. Good luck with your project!

[@TheInja]

On to finishing it!

[@RickRaven]

Congratulations Mate🎉 absolute legend.

[@BigBisalreadytaken]

Congratulations! I recommend that you get the car 100% sorted first, then change the exhaust. Doing this would eliminate the chance of the exhaust causing a problem that you think is caused by something else.

[@Marcel1984nl]

You deserve this man! Great achievement in the process of putting things together. I love the series and the way you edit them, nice job!

[@Saint_Vincent1735]

Well done. You should be proud of your achievement.

[@BowsettesFury]

That’s awesome. Even with a misfire it sounds good 😂

[@TheInja]

Hahaha true

[@TheInja]

Just imagine: high-flow air filters. Titanium exhaust. New ignition coils and spark plugs. 🥵

Great job mate

[@S2NAZ]

Great video 👍🏻👊🏻 you need forward facing camera when you do these drives so you can add in that portion of the drive. Very happy for you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@TheInja]

I had it set up but stopped rolling before I even got out of the garage 😆

[@S2NAZ]

@@TheInja 😂😂😂 Like a kid at Christmas. I totally get that. 👍🏻

[@briandrum1]

As excited as I was to see you uploaded, I was equally disappointed that the video was only 14 minutes! 🤣 Joking aside, CONGRATS man!!! Loving this build!

[@TheInja]

Haha! Not even funny how long the full build video will be ...4 hours? 😅😅😅

[@UnWrecked]

A lot of those clock springs I get away with just wiring new plugs on the end of them.

[@mack2u228]

Good job young man!!!

[@SomeJuanPlay]

Man this is exciting!! I just swapped out the clock spring on my 08 Nissan Titan for 27 bucks it's nuts to see how expensive that part is for a McLaren!

[@jamesbreedlove233]

The guys at DDE have a certified McLaren mechanic on staff

[@leeharrisonphotos4175]

What an achievement you’ll be the coolest looking man in town cruising in this beauty👏🏻

[@aviditycapital]

Your best video! Congratulations

[@TheInja]

Appreciate it! Thanks bro!

[@ripn929707]

Congratulations! Hard work and perseverance pays off! I hope that smoke is something minor. Old gas?

[@TheInja]

Could be! Haven't solved it yet. Doing yet another oil change, then getting the menu lever fixed so I can verify oil level. If still smoking at that point, flush the gas. Coolant still looks fine in the reservoir!

[@ripn929707]

Damn Bro this episode is going to be fire.

[@MohammadFaseeh1997]

Wow ❤ finally it drives congratulations 🎉🎉 man

[@howiefeltersnatcher]

I haven’t even finished watching your video, but you should’ve turned around and put it in the garage as soon as it went back in the limp mode it isn’t a $5000 car. One little thing can cost you an engine. especially if your gauges aren’t working and you can’t go into your screen. You need to have your diagnostic tool hooked up to it when you drive it monitor engine oil, pressure coolant temp. Make sure your cooling fans are coming on and off. It’s all under live data stream. Watch some KZbin videos on how to watch live data while you’re driving it just to doublecheck that you don’t fry something. And yes, congratulations sorry to be such a hard A$$ just don’t want to see all your hard work go to waste and yes, I do know this video was probably recorded weeks ago so I hope you have it all back together and I’m driving it right now

[@turbot_]

Wow... I still have my first car and it's registered as non-op. I had to move it around my property and I was scared to even just let the back wheels touch asphalt because of liability. I really liked this project and I may be overly cautious but man you gotta be insanely careful.

[@Troy_Audi0]

On the Air filter are the air or Oil? K&N style filters can cause MAF issues on some cars just a heads up

[@isamgasal.1173]

The ignition coil carry the same number as Nissan sentra and price less 90% from factory one.

[@TheInja]

Already picked em up 😏

[@BUILDYBUNCH]

Part #10 calls for a celebration, and what better way than with a thrilling drive in the restored McLaren!

[@authenticrebuilds9247]

I love first drives, even had a couple of first flights, have a couple more coming

[@TheInja]

Very cool!
