Assembling the 2023 Honda Civic Type R - CTR Episode 3

[@GearsandGasoline]

Take a shot every time we say “Brand new!” And then after the video, click on that Continental link in the description and drunk buy yourself some new tires.

[@evankirschenmann4653]

y'all beat me to it with this 😭😭😭

[@wilyamiyooo]

Are the tires brand new?

[@michaellegarde3125]

How bout some Rays 57CR wheels to pair up with ur Conty tires, Ben?

[@yarukineez0]

Here I was thinking it should be every time "buddy" is said

[@mastercricket7626]

Lmao .. funny thing . I can totally see ppl doing this , then a few days later the fed-ex truck shows up with a brand new set of tires , that you don't need yet , cuz you just put new tires on a week ago .. ya know right b4 ya drunk bought these 😅😅😅😅.. peace and keep having fun all

[@jeffreyshepherd8488]

Im sorry but you guys are youtubing wrong this rebuild shouldve been a 30 part series spanning two years where you ultimately dont finish and start a new project!

[@TerminusVox]

(Don't finish and send it to SEMA anyway)

[@tturi2]

binky?

[@MatrixBreak4324]

LOOKS LIKE A TAVARISH THING

[@memertmemes2586]

And you've never finished a single one of your own builds, but this guy MUST do 20 builds for your viewing pleasure in 1 year right?​@@MatrixBreak4324

[@ImBarryScottCSS]

70 million views guaranteed. Needs to be flood damaged though.

[@saadkhan6380]

That door handle.. please don't change it! It's like a badge of honor for this xar. A piece of history. A talking point. Because everybody will point it out! What can be greater than a combo of a good car and terrible story! :D

[@djdavis4713]

Even better it's on the drivers door. A gentle reminder of track dangers every time you get in.

[@Philthese93]

Fuck you know what I agree! That and the rear bumper diffuser trim piece will be what give the car its track characteristic!

[@goophichild]

i came here to say this! keep the door handle pls!

[@sbinex]

I agree!

[@Edgar_84]

😂 was just about to comment the same thing

[@matteugenio]

First, I love the fact that Mark carried this episode with being the focus and narration. He’s come such a long way with the team and shows that he belongs at G&G. Secondly, the cinematography was spot on as usual. Bravo fellas 🤌🏽

[@jackymok4848]

I've been watching for quite awhile, but is this the first time we got Mark to do a voiceover?

[@nutsack]

@@jackymok4848 yeah, i think so

[@shinyredcobra]

Couldn't agree more

[@jasonting8112]

​@@jackymok4848No I believe it's either the 2nd or 3rd time. First time Mark had a voiceover was the Honda Beat engine removal video

[@jackymok4848]

@@jasonting8112 ah thank you! Gonna go find those to rewatch because we just hear Ben and Ben all the time, it just slips my mind

[@crystalzues4712]

Every Aussie staying up till midnight for these

[@Foggy404]

Its 9:50pm here in my bit of Aus!

[@Faceplanttt]

1am in bris for this

[@TURBOTRISTO]

We sure are

[@2JRaz]

As an American I didn't realize australia is literally the size of the US until reading these comments about time zones. I am a bit shocked

[@SirSpinalColumn]

Mark killing it on the voiceover. Love your work guys.

[@walahmelons5504]

Dude Steve knocked it out of the park with the panel alignments. It looks like it was never wrecked

[@pierresauve8612]

This is the comment where 1 like is 1 vote for Mark to get his own build

[@crystalcactuis.w]

Yess

[@Jacky1Feng]

@7:35 I was one of 4 supplier engineers working on the metal part of the door. So probably 25-40 engineers once you consider other suppliers and oem engineers

[@ryanwolfe911]

Tell Mark not to worry. Honda SRS systems are self healing and do NOT need to be programmed. If all mandatory replacement parts were replaced according to the Honda service information deployment list, the light will just go out by itself. The only thing that has to be done after a collision is the occupancy sensor recalibration. By the way, 2 new front crash sensors are part of the mandatory replacement parts list. I can forward this to you if you want it.

[@TenZo311]

This is not by any means true lmfao 😂

[@waybach]

This is 100% true. Honda Master mechanic 14 years. Source: trust me bro

[@HarmanLearns]

@@waybach Well they went new module, seat belts and airbags, apart from replacing the front two sensors. They should be all good to go, I would still put a scanner on it and clear all the codes and check if anything needs programming though. There's still a bit of work left for 'em.

[@anotheruniqueusername]

this is the type of content we needed instead of 'pimp my ride' at the time hahah, y'all are single-handedly changing internet automotive content, one video at a time.

[@mhdghzzz]

mark character development is one of my fav part of this series and other series.

[@idotg2012]

17:14 the ratchet sound lining up with the song is chef’s kiss

[@theblackmambaplague]

You’re a cornball dawg.

[@300atsheridan]

The fact that yall gave Mark narration time was awesome. Please keep Mark involved like this in builds. And let him have a build series. He’s a blessing to the group, and the channel.

[@reyes2673]

Everyone needs a friend like Mark , he’s a great addition to Gears and Gasoline 🔥🔥

[@KingTroopa]

id keep the door handle like that as a piece of history. I know its not "your" history, but its a nice reminder of where the car has come from.

[@rodelraymundo]

Car sitting there barely 50% done Ben: we gotta mod this thing Mark: ohh I love it when you talk dirty to me 🤣🤣

[@ulissesmagalhaes69]

So, Mark is narrating stuff. Neat! Brings so much depth and presence and even more personality, an improvement to something already great!

[@SoMagic17]

This style of content is unique to me, it reminds me of tv shows on say motortrend or something id see my dad watching, but a little more real and less tv'y. mark is a chill dude

[@femmefataleracer]

konig tantrums 🤪

[@fookie-fone]

Thanks for saving this CTR! Fantastic work. Amazing how many modules, sensors and safety equipment gets trashed in an accident.

[@AZ-hf9ow]

You're a hero for saving that CTR 👏

[@Meaty97]

I’ll say it again I love that you guys brought Mark on…such an incredible addition to the team.

[@EzwanRohman]

18:19 i like it when Mark vents off his feelings about vents that don't vent

[@joshuagarcia7786]

So much respect for guys like Mark, I am sure that so many channels have unsung heroes so I am glad this man gets the attention he deserves

[@AndorRadnai]

A VoiceOver by Mark!? That is fantastic!! And Ms. Thorn helping!? Man, this video is really wholesome somehow. G&G seems even more like a big family in this one. ^^

[@martindeoliveira5128]

Genuinely the best motoring enthusiast KZbin channel out there. The progress you guys have made over the years is amazing. Keep it up!

[@larjayyambao336]

S10k and Type R road trip for the honda boyss

[@thestormking6737]

As a tech when it comes to seatbelts and airbags always torque to spec as these safety items can be the difference between life and death in the event of a crash. Love the content G&G ❤

[@vendetta911]

Loving the voice-overs done by Mark, it almost feels natural coming from him! Also, don't change the driver's door handle, it gives the car a bit of history. :)

[@TheJMedia]

Great way to start my morning! A video from gears and gasoline and a cup of coffee

[@satujodasrivathsav3050]

GnG dropping asmrs every weekend is one of the things I always look forward to

[@evankirschenmann4653]

Take a shot every time Mark and Ben say "brand new" 🤣

[@akilh340]

*dies from alcohol poisoning*

[@MalayKim]

The way the pieces snap back into place is such a satisfying feeling.

[@evankirschenmann4653]

After this series, I would love to see more of Mark's S2000 on the channel

[@tymoberg4481]

Ben loving this series and the production quality is stellar! I work at a collision center in Georgia and I actually specialize in scans and recalibration on all the ADAS, SRS, and ECU components in vehicles. Would love to bring this car back to its factory state and make sure its safe and fault free moving forward!

[@dragbag1616]

Vehicle homologation engineer here: Have you guys replaced the EDR??? Event Data Recorder module. A bit more than just a recorder, blackbox style, it's the unit that also calls emergency services in the event of a crash. Not sure if it's in U.S. vehicles though, but it's mandatory in other countries.

[@SomeOne-on6yf]

Absolutely love that Mark did his own voice over!!!!!!!!!!!! Let this man build his own car next!!!!

[@mr.cangieter8758]

Happy Saturday. 💪🏾

[@C0smicEye]

Your guys' videos are so much more enjoyable to watch compared to other channels. Others feel dragged on, filled with fluff and lifeless at times; while you guys just do something. Personal prefernce or not, don't stop what you guys are doing.

[@duckyouall3225]

Saw the thumbnail and immediately clicked!

[@thetjv]

“No splodey splodey, so that’s good.” is a phrase that applies to many more situations than you may think

[@Uchia18]

GET SPOON WHEELS!

[@stephenabril7084]

Kudos to Mark he’s really good at Putting it all back together gently.

[@PrimalJinshaIttai]

For the new wheels get OZ ultraleggera HLT

[@R0KU]

PLEASE KEEP that door handle the way it is. That is an awesome little piece of history and a great conversation starter. I’ve loved this series G&G!

[@rcravincase]

Hope some cavity wax gets put in there to protect everything that wasnt painted

[@rorodesignspowdercoating]

Massive shout out to mark, how comfortable he became on camera and now voice overs!

[@sooyster4033]

Love to see Mark's open attitude when approaching the doors. I've been wrenching on my Honda CB500X and find the same little things to appreciate about it

[@DetestN]

As a body technician, this series has been one of the most entertaining rebuild series I’ve watched! It was great to see Steve go to work. Watching y’all reassemble the car from bare sheet metal reminds me too much of work, but it’s fun to watch others do it for some reason.

[@tylerabreo1610]

Probably because it’s tough work when you’re doing it but you get to appreciate the workmanship and satisfaction of seeing it come together when you don’t have to put in the painstaking work by yourself haha 😆

[@Plimpert]

Your care for you crafts translates through the screen, the cars, the videos, and the teamwork. ❤

[@echelonx4501]

Hey Ben, The side vents on the FK8 are functional but in a different way. While on the FL5 the vents allow for the air to be released that would normally be trapped in the wheel arches (helping with cooling breaks and reducing aerodynamic lift), The Fk8 takes air in through the hood to help flush out the hot air in the engine bay and funnel it out the side vents. While the FK8 side vents are not designed to reduce lift (like in the FL5) they still have a functional purpose. Thanks for all your amazing videos, I love watching all your content.

[@B-Diddy-6]

Me watching this for 30 minutes, all excited, just to see them close the doors on a civic that is back to stock. Absolutely unreal work and can't wait to see what happens with this one!

[@LiarAMV]

Having myself the previous Honda Type R generation puts a smile to my face seeing you guys putting this one back on its feet. Love your content and keep up the wonderful work

[@DreamAutomotive]

Loved watching this come back together, both the car and the videos have been done very well! 👏 When it comes time to modify, get in touch - we've got plenty of experience with this platform and a huge catalogue of parts to take the car to the next level 💪

[@Pman8362]

I enjoy Mark narrating his sections

[@MattDeReus]

I love that Mark is enjoying the less glamorous and tedious work. It's satisfying to see the car take shape piece by piece.

[@RetroMotiveAdventures]

Steve knocked that thing out of the park that rear quarter repair is fantastic.

[@VivaLaBilliam]

Absolutely mint. Great to see a car put back together other than going to be crushed. Great work editing and assembly.

[@Hernandez15]

Watching this on my tv while I’m on my phone commenting and I’d just like to say I loved this series so far definitely beats waiting and eternity to see builds get completed. Keep it up guys wish nothing but great success lots of views and another million subs if possible 🤙🏻

[@tzuRu]

Amazing job on the rebuild! Keep the Door Handle as is as a small reminder of what this was but also this video makes me realize that i still really want one, issue being i am broke and just 19yrs old, ill keep dreaming

[@FogMayonnaiseRedStarWars]

mark got narration, hell yeah.

[@ookthebomber]

Saturday mornings are reserved for coffee and Gears and Gasoline.

[@vladiator2238]

Thank you, short Ben, for showing us the new Honda Type R's quirks and features.

[@Darren_Martin]

Mark on the voiceover! Bro's really cooking on the channel Hood struts are heavier than a hood prop, Mark! Type R is about that LIGHTWEIGHT! LOL

[@TekaidaMoto]

The piano Jazz at 1:07 minute is so clean

[@michealvick4042]

This is an amazing series loved watching steve do his thing, love seeing mark do his thing

[@CarObsession]

This has been a satisfying and enjoyable series to watch, hats off for the production and dedication.

[@DeadBaron]

Might be the greatest modern car restoration I've ever seen, sure hope nothing bad happens

[@variousengineering1965]

Honestly staggering how the quarter repair came together. Mega impressed!

[@jpht.adventures]

Yes, more voice overs from Mark please!🎉

[@johnxina2140]

Honestly I 100% think you should keep the old door handle on, like that, forever. It's a great showpiece to the work you put into the car and what it used to be

[@HostmorkeCZ]

I do this as a living. Satisfying career which helps me fund my EP3 project. Will be doing my first quarter panel replace and repair on a Honda funny enough.

[@nmdesignco]

FACT #7: That's where (some of) the EU and JDM parking sensors reside. Thanks for the great build video. I appreciated seeing under the skin!

[@kingali1606]

Mark is truly a master of his craft. It's wasn't easy to put that car back together.

[@sw1ck3n]

Love Mark getting some voice-over action

[@basilfabian05]

I was sad to see the WRX go but the replacement man... wow. Not only does it look like a brand new Type R, it is a current model that just came out so its basically the newest Type R you can get. Getting it for that price and being able to enjoy this thing after its done is gonna be nice 👍

[@wilmarmorales1285]

Mark is amazing doing everything for you Ben

[@Andy3x]

Oem parts are the most satisfying parts to install, everything fits so flawlessly especially body panels.

[@Blucifer-K]

The only other channel that puts in the quality work into rebuilding cars right 🤘🏻

[@SLIMOFICATION]

Super excited for the series, appreciate it not being elongated into a million videos, under 10 minute gang, less goo

[@kikimushroom94]

I am so happy you guys resurrected this type r rather than it going to the scrap yard. Well done

[@yasirrafeek5853]

Next step after completing the build will be probably detailing and protection by Automotive Aesthetics followed by a Road Trip and Track Time Attack. Excitedd!!!

[@marcoguzman7934]

Mark was really good in this episode, props to him

[@MyNameIsNidos]

I leveled up my mining level from 37 to 40 in Old School Runescape while watching this video. Thanks guys!

[@jimbob5589]

Bro just send the seat cover to an upholstery shop to get re stitched. We use a special airbag thread thats a thinner guage and designed to break when an airbag goes off. Not only that but i can almost guarantee a better result

[@jimjohanson8152]

Mark with the one handed wheel grab

[@PlayerOne1999]

Brand New, bonjour, and coninenal are just gonna ring in my head till next week.

[@JippaJ]

That MR2/MRS is awesome

[@JonathanGrech-rr4hf]

Love the video. The grill pieces that you can open are not for increased airflow, they are for international market front sensors which mount into that spot.

[@_tokii__]

Mark appreciation comment. He's gotten so much better at voiceovers, and his presence in front of the camera is amazing now too.

[@markmoto9710]

what an awesome build Ben and Mark, a huge shoutout to Mark's Family here at Philippines!!!!

[@serdiegito]

Leave the handle as it is..... Part of a small scar Car has character, a tough one. Keep up to good work guys

[@Horutoes]

I’ve been watching these as they come out since part 1, keep up the good work 👍🏻 these videos are a treat

[@TheJMedia]

So satisfying to hear the sound of the ratchet and clips going into place

[@culley65]

Can't wait to watch you guys reassemble this whole thing, just to take it apart again for mods.

[@drewmccurdy3595]

Loving your guys content! Seeing as you guys essentially rebuild every piece of this car, it would be fun to see a recap vid after all of this to understand which parts were worst to work on (airbags), most satisfying to work on (body work?), most surprisingly complicated (airbags or windows?) or something like that.

[@taaoquinn3731]

This was absolutely masterful. Loved every minute of it.

[@dreadhawk861]

I love hearing all these little clicks from all the clips and panels going back in

[@stevos63]

Fantastic job of piecing the Civic back together gents.

[@06Salvi_LGT]

My co-worker has a fl-5 type R, its really nice, its on a blue color, he just did lowering springs and spacers, it looks real nice now, not a honda fan, but they are good looking cars.
