There are no better car channels than this. Larry is a car guy talking to real car people. No one reading spec sheets, real explinations of the reason behind the madness, and shows the passion these people have for their machines. Another cool build. Thanks, Larry.

Good point on brakes. That's the reason why modern racecars and hypercars have wheels larger than 20" - just to provide massive braking capacity. With 15" wheels you're simply limited what brakes can do. ✌️

this genuinely is one of the coolest cars you've featured imo. it's as grassroots as it gets. isn't it amazing where technology and a bit of do-diligence can get you?! that's a 4 cylinder engine from a front wheel drive minivan probably. and some parts from the wreckers, some fancy electronic gizmos and gadgets, you now have a competitive mx5. quite possibly the fastest in the world

Hondas minivans have J series v6's.. Those K series 4 cyl however came in almost every other vehicle honda made except the minivans and Suvs. The "CUV"/ mini suv's got them. Not the big boys though. The J series however is legendary when cared for. Million miles or more, Easy. Lots of youtube videos about it. Also, thats a lot of parts from custom makers, as well as self designed. Some might be from scrap yard, but the majority are high end expensive parts. Dry sump, Water pump relocation, Alternator delete, Not things you are going to find at your local scrap yard.

Just saw the video amdnthe answer (or a viable answer) to hos alternator problem is run it off the rear end. I have seen several set ups that run off the rear end and it works great. Speed of the alternator stays within a narrow band easily tuned by the alternator pulley size. Good luck. Also lithium battery swaps will give you more reserve with a lighter weight.

Luckily I was young and stupid enough to keep my foot in it and I powered my way (sideways) out of a roundabout, so sideways that just by looking over my shoulder I was face to face with the BMW driver who'd been tailgating me. He decided he didn't wanna be that crazy and backed right off. I've never cranked on full lock that quick in all my life 😂

I would have to guess the belt is slipping past 5500 especially if it's multiple alternators not charging. Kevlar belt maybe wider pulleys and a wider belt? Such a weird issue. I guess pattern could cause it too if the belt isn't making enough surface contact where you could put a guide pulley close to it so the belt practically wraps 80% of the alternator wheel.
