Also something to note around Mighty Car Mods: we are normal guys and are not trained mechanics. We like to make interesting car mods and show you how we've gone about it, but we can't promise that anything we show you will work for your particular car, or that you won't harm yourself, someone else, your car or your warranty doing it. Please be safe, be responsible and unless you know what you're doing, do not fool around with very serious machinery just because you've seen us make it look so easy.

That's the biggest thing I notice being from the UK. The MR2 was the closest thing I saw to what it's like to work on cars here. Everything is rusted and changing anything can easily result in snapped or rounded bolts.

Definitely agree. Gotta love exhaust bolts that have literally become one with the flanges due to corrosion. Either have to drill or melt them out of there. And that's a fairly easy scenario.

Man this takes me back. I love and missed this style from the earlier years. It makes me more enthused to pickup a wrench again. It's been half a year and I don't know why I can't do it anymore. But it does help some to see the two guys who started this channel with this video again, whom I'd call brothers. The help I've had and journey gone has been so much better because of it. I may not be able to say it's been because of this a life was saved or not. I can say I am nowhere near as hardened to life as I could have been, and have a vicarious experience of a hobby when going to and trying to meet new people once a month was too much out of my budget. I miss my manual everyday of the week and hope I can get back to repairing. Sometimes it's hard to even know what's ailing.

often the only thing stopping people from modding their ride is the price. Thanks to MCM we can watch others do it, for free (:

[@theflukey4114]

Yep, $700 for a cat-back for my 2019 Elantra GT NLine Turbo, and $1100 for downpipe plus a full custom exhaust system... Oh, and $350 for a custom K&N intake system. Finally $650 for a tune that provides an extra 50hp, and 50torque... Add in a downpipe, which is close to $650...yeah it's expensive but it's fun! And my dealer is fine with mods, so I still got the warranty :)

[@antonioakiki3716]

The Flukey most bang for buck is a tune so for that atleast! Maybe a simpler exhaust setup for better noise, exhaust doesnt give much power

[@tincangarage5616]

The Flukey I have the same car! I currently have only coilovers and a muffler and res delete. Everything is damn expensive on this car.

[@theflukey4114]

@@antonioakiki3716 Yep that the biggest difference any mod yet has made on my car...it now burns through tires throughout 1st and second gears, it completely changes everything. Plus with my Cat-Back system, I now have nice pops and bangs when downshifting and revving the engine. The only downside is the aftermarket for my car isn't that great so parts are rather expensive. But I love my Elantra GT N line, it looks sleek in black, and with the chrome-tipped exhaust and nice 18" custom black wheels, it looks really nice.

[@theflukey4114]

@@tincangarage5616 Yeah ikr? Hopefully, the aftermarket will pick up soon on our cars. I love mine, but it's so expensive to modify, but it's well worth it in the end.

That's actually a very good advice, as long as you don't plan to let him do all the work.

Very good way to get into mechanics is having a friend guide you

@@JacobHolmes747 Not even close, there are several rules. You can't have the wheels outside the body, and you must not be able to see any part of the wheel when viewed from above, so you can't stance the hell out of it just to get the top of the wheel flush. You can have big flares to allower wider wheels and I don't think they mention a limit on the size of them. But there's a pretty serious limitation on width and offset from only being able to widen the track by 25mm, measured from the centre of the rim, meaning you can only decrease the offset by 12.5mm. You can have wider rims, but with only 12mm lower offset, you'll be hitting the inside of the car before you can get too wide. Can't use spacers. Can't increase the overall diameter of the tire by more than 15mm. Tires can't be more than 30% wider than manufacturer's widest for the car. Can't have the tire scrubbing on anything at any point, while 'fully laden' and going over speed bumps and driveways. I think basically all stock cars would fail that. There's minimum tire widths for rim widths, basically square sidewall is the minimum. Then there's another dozen or more rules for suspension.

I prefer a more "don't ask, don't tell" approach when it comes to talking about car mods to my auto insurance :P

[@kevink397]

I'd say better safe than sorry, because if I'm in a 5k car with 25k worth of mods, and I don't tell the insurance company about it, if I get in an accident they're only gonna cover the 5k car, not the 25k worth of mods.

[@nathanreimer1296]

@@kevink397 lool you'd never get the money back regardless, unless you part it out. Putting more money doesn't always mean its worth more. Especially after and accident

[@pieflies]

Depending on the insurer, you can negotiate an agreed value that covers the cost of the mods (generally not including consumables like tyres). The greater the agreed value the more your insurance costs though and they might have upper value limits.

[@OvoJeGovno]

@@nathanreimer1296 Pro tip: your insurance doesn't care. Value is a number plugged into an algorithm that determines your premium. "Oh, you say you car is worth 10k more than we think it is? K, I guess you like paying more each month for insurance then lol" is basically the only determining factor. Seriously, unless you make a claim immediately after acquiring a new policy, they don't even look your way twice. Try to get cheap insurance, you'll get basically nothing if you have an accident. Try to plan for "covering ALL my costs!" if you get into an accident? you'll pay out the ass each month. It's up to you to approximate your cars worth. They don't care. They just plug the numbers.

[@OGtrushalpatel]

@@OvoJeGovno so do we tell insurance if we mod or dont tell them?

[@cnovalles73]

Anyone who says a car is "perfect as it is from factory and shouldn't be modified" isn't a "car person". Those are the people who see a car/SUV/truck as a tool to get from point A to B. Nothing wrong with that because everyone is entitled to their opinion and should do what works for them. I've owned 15 cars and performed SOME kind of modification on every one.

[@raceedits]

I'm only 15 years old but my dad wants me to learn this stuff because he wants me to help modify his e36. I've been in love with cars since I first saw one. Something about them makes them so appealing and cool. I eventually want to have my own Impreza that I can mod. The thought of upgrading cars is another thing I love. It's something I see my dad doing when he's not at the office working from early morning to late at night. He's a very kind guy who introduced me to all the different cars you could think of, He loves cars and probably will for the rest of his life.

Heard lots of good and bad things about re003's on BRZ's. A tyre centre mechanic here in Australia told me that the cars are just too light for them to warm up and generate the grip you'd expect from a re003 but the Michelins are an all-round favourite and suits this car well.

@@Raph2D I've got RE003s on my 2009 Lancer, work great. I've used them for about 2 years now and still got loads of grip, more than my car will ever need.

For those who are more knowledgeable: If you're going to be adding/changing exterior parts with a body kit, I would assume you would do that first before messing with the suspension right? I would imagine so anyway, otherwise your new parts may end up hitting the road if you didn't check if the height from ground changed
