[@TheKuzmovka]

The Skid Factory is what all of us more die hard technically inclined MCM fans have been craving for years. This is a massive success in my opinion. You guys do things right, and show a fairly high amount of detail. Plus it's genuinely entertaining. Well done!

[@marklitzow2743]

TheKuzmovka So bloody true glad they decided to do this style of videos

[@ricohradetzky1223]

Are you saying you're not satisfied with "we're putting in coil overs and an exhaust" every third video? This series is far more interesting than the last few seasons of mcm combined.

[@SuperWesty177]

totally agree learn alot from al love the builds here. cant wait to see whats next!

[@carsonfranks3138]

Not to mention putting coil overs on a car that I bet preforms worse with them.

[@mightycarmods]

Mod max handles amazingly well with coil overs. They were custom made specifically for our car so not sure why you’d think they don’t perform.

[@mightycarmods]

Good stuff boys!

[@nissanpacific9793]

mad skids

[@HighDefBNG]

Loving the music in this one guys!

[@punchbowlcustoms]

Nice to see a bit of diesel action!! Keep up the sick vids boys!!!

[@Kirayagamiful]

Better than Ford Focus Build

[@stuartjohns2779]

dr_scream for sure👍👍👍

[@lankyfella]

"it will display danger to manifold, and then the floor will give out" Holy shit that was so good

[@jimsoulman]

Well dubbed wasn’t it 😂

[@harryparkinson4200]

"Yes, we've done the tappets! It's just a noisy old heap of S**T!" Quality end of the series!

[@cardesinr]

The ending.... LOL. Mechanical diesels arent quiet, people.

[@compted10]

It got me rolling

[@vlfreak]

lol loved it :D

[@nathanbarford]

Tractor life is a good life.

[@numberpirate]

I didn't know mechanical diesels were people.

[@williamwallace5201]

goteem on the lack of comma usage, dude

[@thegenerousdegenerate9395]

I think that's the happiest Yoda I've ever seen. Either that or Moog and Marty just drive him crazy. 😂 lol

[@craigshovlin9756]

Without taking anything away from Marty or Moog, they are a tough act to follow entertainment wise, but this series has been my favorite the Yoda and the Yoda's apprentice know they're apples and lemons without overdoing it, Big shout to Al who gave me advice a few months back about my own project, she goes well!

[@siraff4461]

You don't need to have a load of smoke off boost. The compensator needs opening up and the main fuel screw bringing back down a little. The compensator will usually have an eccentric bar and you adjust it by turning it in the sleeve.

[@alexcorona]

Wish Motortrend had hosts like this, great knowledge, no BS and are actually funny without trying.

[@markrent3269]

Much more confident on camera and just a big kid at heart.

[@darthvader8433]

My TD42 GU auto will be ready today after a Garrett ball bearing turbo, cross country i/c and 11mm pump are fitted. Aiming for 180hp. Was making 120. Can't wait!

[@swemlarn]

I recognise that smile in the end 😄 a sooting, good sounding patrol does that too you 😊

[@mrtrueno86]

Love the td42 series. Gives us a closer look at the inner workings of Al's mind. Keep em comin ya legends!

[@MacFromWayBack]

650Nm at 2400 rpm. That’s a success. Sick build guys!

[@CRINNI11]

Honestly this is great, not only did MCM become the best and most popular car show, but they found two other blokes who also Are awesome to watch, and do different content and there aussie to! Just making my long weekend that much better boys, got a mate with a td42 GU patrol and it’s a beast, going camping in it this weekend yewwww! Take care lads, doing a good job!

[@naftalithaithi4812]

I have genuinely enjoyed this series. Especially because I am looking into buying a turbo diesel. Thank you chaps!

[@Turbo_Tractors]

Has some serious launch on it. Bloody good effort guys, loving the truck, and loved watching it built the right way too.

[@ryanriddell9314]

Absolutely loved this series!! Best content on any MCM channel for the last few years! Raising the bar!

[@PeaceOfPiee]

Top job fellas. Keep up the banter. Seeing people enjoy their rigs makes me smile.

[@EB240]

Props for good music in the video guys, sounds heaps better than the lo-fi chill hip-hop i hear in like every other youtube build videos

[@jabeowaho7343]

HAHAHA “it pulls like a bloody twelve year old boy”

[@liamcooper5202]

Esoteric Visual Arts Bloody classic

[@MADBONE0]

lip reading was never my forte

[@danteelander1491]

hahaha I wondered what they bleeped. Had to go back,

[@802Garage]

I was wondering if he said Dodge Viper and they bleeped it because that's a dirty American car, hahaha.

[@TheOzTurkish]

It's great seeing them more comfortable in front of the camera, great series

[@alltheboost5363]

Love the way this series came out... hope you feel better Al.

[@shawngtpsvm]

Never clicked on a notification so fast.

[@ralfsz95]

Genuinely enjoyed the project. I love the in-depth mechanical knowledge, thank you, Al and Woody!

[@evana1900]

Another excellent series. Absolutely loved it fellas. I want this to never end. The bickering is almost too perfect.

[@joshmoe3680]

I was not a fan of any vehicle that was not a true or American before I started watching you and the MCM guys, definitely broadened my Outlook on the culture. Keep it up love the videos!

[@simonhall8109]

Good show boys,entertaining,informative,and a lot of laughs for average person who likes motor vehicles. Will defiantly stay tuned!!

[@masonaldenhoven5520]

Al for Prime Minister

[@GdaySport]

or minister for justice :-)

[@rsoul7282]

savos aren Al is off his fucken chops my good friend, he is sweating, scratching at himself, his eyes are popping out of his head, he needs to get off the pipe.

[@rsoul7282]

Automobile Addict sure, but I also work in hot climates, and not just on fun size itty bitty Nissans, and I do not look like a sweaty King Charles spaniel with a beard, and this may come as a surprise, but I can also string together a sentence. Whatever Al does in his spare time is entirely his business. Regardless, he still looks as baked as an entire Terracotta Army. Not trying to be critical, just highlighting the obvious.

[@mikebaz7843]

The ol' TD clack - mine's got it, and I did the tappets with a dial indicator. Love this series!

[@UncleManuel]

The "Have you seen my 10 mil?" is sort of a running gag, eh? Love it! ^_^

[@rhyswebb5957]

seriously though the 10mm socket is the only one anyone i know is missing..... its really frustrating..... meanwhile I have 3 i have picked up off the road at work but shhhh

[@olik136]

it is... but it is also completely true- about all my ratchet sets are missing the 10 mm- an when you finally find one you need ANOTHER one to hold the fucking nut...

[@nauthizzz]

It's a stereotype on pretty much any forum where mechanics gather, but with good reason since the most often used items are the ones most likely to go missing, and most likely to be missed once they're gone.

[@GR3YS0RG4N1CS]

Man I haven't owned a single tool set that I haven't had the 10 mil come up missing! They all end up running off to the 10 mil pub in the sky and never come back but then, I bet if I made my shop completely spotless I'd find some nice barely used 10 mils lying around that someone lost... Lmfao

[@samwalker7567]

I had a box of 10 mils. It's empty now.

[@douglasm3310]

Lol the end killed me.

[@clevo-td4291]

yes it def did to me aswell lol

[@fabricobblegarage9545]

Dude yes!

[@jamesw9683]

Lets go before the fuzz come!

[@RobYeates]

as a BMW owner I know that sound well

[@davidsteinhour5562]

What a fun series. Great change of pace. I absolutely loved it

[@NK-dl2nc]

Setting up diesels is a black art. I found i couldny get the boost up without adding more fuel which then puts egt up and you need more boost to cool it! Everything works together it appears. Nice patrol and wish those motors were more available hear in Uk.

[@blueovalfreak]

Loving the skid factory videos, especially this series as I'm a coal rolling 4wder myself among other vehicle related hobbies. Loving the patrol build even if I am an 80 series guy myself haha

[@N_ickoutwest]

Legends. I still come back to this series frequently. More diesel stuff, it's super fucking interesting 👌

[@BorisFett]

My next upgrade is my fuel system so watching this series has been really fun. My diesel pickup will hold 28-30 psi from factory. Looking to aleast double that by the time all my mods are done.

[@ARK842001]

That friendly clatter is a sure sign that you're doing it right.

[@J-Eagan]

Haven’t even finished watching the latest episode of MCM yet. Watch Out Marty and Moog, The Skid Factory is coming for ya!

[@TheOnlyToblin]

Big, black poof when speeding off is common for older (and some new) diesel engines. The engine inputs a set amount of fuel, and there's not enough boost pressure to use all that fuel, so you're running pig rich. The smoking goes away once the turbo catches up and AFRs stabilize. Interesting to see it's such a common occurance for pretty much any diesel ^^

[@alexbennett997]

Nice to see something diesel, practical and fun. With "decent" mpg too. Long live the diesel

[@crzy11000]

What do you think his MPG would be now??In imperial gallons please.

[@alexbennett997]

crzy11000 Better than with the petrol. No idea on numbers, probably still not great by modern standards

[@carlmiller8737]

It's been great seeing a 4wd build. Great work fellas

[@MrButtonpresser]

Al is warming to this video lark! You guys are great.

[@CryMoar_]

Another quality episode. This is becoming so good.

[@lockwood456]

Never seen Al smile so much 😀

[@remyche4300]

Note that you should take in consideration where you put your egt senser. Apparently it's a 200 degrees differents from dump pipe to exhaust manifold?

[@ClawPhD]

cool! haven't heard talk of EGT tuning in ages. GREAT series guys, keep em up Turbo Yoda

[@23ADeathTech]

Love that outtake bit at the very end. Bravo!

[@dumbashcroft]

Lol Al is such a cool cat, id love to work with him.

[@psychoskippy4126]

I’m so sad that this is over now this has been the best build so far for mcm being a passionate outdoors enthusiast myself I loved this I’ve got a gq patrol with 170rwkw soon to be 200 but later on I’m going to do a Cummins 6bt conversion I’ve got a commonrail dodge engine sitting in the shed but I’m happy playing with the old tb42e atm till I blow it up hahaha

[@XxMusclecarsxX]

skid factory > mighty car mods, turbo yoda

[@chrisjones2149]

Great work guys! Big fan of the series, can't wait to see the next project!

[@TriniRogue]

I was smiling from start to end with this video ahaha loved every min of it, and much like the stagea and the fairlane i will be watching this build again from start to finish, guess i'm addicted to the builds :D

[@PiperFishing]

Turned out sweet as. Can't wait to see more of it.

[@PiazzaWoodWorks]

Best series on KZbin

[@alexmcalpine6667]

Man you guys get your videos out quick :) love it! Been an awesome series!

[@joey_mc]

No Smoke, No Poke. Well done lads :)

[@billroach2393]

Did you ever consider putting the EGT thermocouple in the exhaust manifold instead of the dump pipe? You'll get a much more accurate (ie: hotter) reading than the dump pipe...which is seeing the temps after the turbo has soaked-up much of the heat. When i owned my TD42 kettle, I had two thermocouples...one above and the other below the turbo. Ended up not bothering with the dump pipe reading. Love your channel by the way. Only became aware of it yesterday during the live broadcast by "Home Built By Jeff".

[@TheGodMob]

Really sick build guys! Keep up the content, and keep up the variety!

[@steveodonald1979]

Still cant wait for you to pass me on the highway, Al (even if you do cover the front of my coach in soot).... One of my old coaches had the exact same problem at low RPM... But who cares, as long as you've got the boost :) .... damn that old thing still went well.

[@tnkklr2011]

Does it do maaad skeeds? Awesome build guys! Seeing a Nissan roll coal is hilarious!

[@Jim_M_75]

750 Nm at the wheels, cracking job lads.

[@lindsayburrows9272]

Love the series so far! Would have been good to see a bit more in depth regarding the pump tuning though. Fuel screw rarely needs to be touched if the tuner knows what he is doing.

[@LifeRunner4000]

You should check out the Mercedes diesels, OM606, 648, 603 and 617s are all Bosch M-Series pump equipped engines, easier to work on and if you put 8mm plungers in them, you could do like 60 pounds of boost on a BorgWarner K29 sized turbo, which is great fun. I'd like to see you guys tackle that.

[@potaka79]

The last 10sec "Priceless"....

[@Rex_Stuph]

Gotta ask "Why tho?": That gauge has a 3 digit display, why couldn't they display the full egt rather than /10 ? I know "just add a zero", but that does my sense of righteousness a misfortune.

[@nathanhughes9996]

And my OCD, knowing that I have to do .3 seconds of mental math is just not cricket bruhh

[@idtent]

Totally enjoyed this series. Thanks Guys.

[@david929190]

The build is great, the builders are great, the editing is great and the background music is great! Import a 5.9 12V and put that in a Toyota to get some real diesel power.

[@SomervilleMetalWorks]

what you make no sense we have toyotas here with turbo diesel v8's. Yeah 6bts are cool but they also weigh as much as a car

[@david929190]

Check out the Diesel Power Challenge and then come talk about how great that little 4.5l v8 is.

[@SomervilleMetalWorks]

Another cummins fanboi starting a dick swinging contest. No one cares that you can make 2000hp on a 6bt tbat takes 15minutes to spool unless you pull it down on a dyno. I dont even care that this made 210hp. Real 4wding is about usable torque between 1500-2500rpm and fuel economy. No point having a 1000hp cummins if you range is only 300klm

[@david929190]

It's not a contest when the competitors aren't even in the same class. And you obviously don't know anything about a 6bt because you can have an easy 400 hp that's completely reliable and still gets 14l/100km in a full size truck. Even at 1000hp the millage can still be great if tuned properly, like the DPC competitor who made over 2000 lbft and still managed 23 MPG. You can also 4 wheel with a gas suzuki samurai but people build what they want not what YOU want, that's why you see cars with supercharged LS engines when they don't even drag race.

[@david929190]

Just wanted to let you know that Deboss garage is doing a colab with the boys to put together a 24V P pump cummins for his patrol.

[@RandomMiniFilms]

Well done Guys!! :) Thanks for filming. Really enjoy the series.

[@ne1273]

A wealth of knowledge just there.

[@marklitzow2743]

Awesome work guys. Love seeing some 4wd vids getting done,still love the other content you've been putting up. Making me wanna move on to some power upgrades for my Gu patrol. Keep up the great work 👍

[@BradcoxMr2]

No smoke, no poke!

[@russrh]

i see skid factory, i click like

[@DanielHatchman]

That bit about soot was gold! Al: *Grins like a little kid* You know what they say about soot... Woody: Something about bad fuel economy I think. Al: Oh, yeah yeah

[@timburdon4505]

“Danger to manifold and the floor will fall out” 😂😂😂😂

[@salmontips]

Just yesterday i seen black smoke pouring outta the back of a jacked Patrol and a sticker that said "SOOT GETS MOOT" funny as.

[@cyclemoto8744]

😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂

[@Pepper_brooks]

Another awesome video fellas! Well Done! That ending was gold!

[@jasfrank1986]

AL man what happened to the hand looks painful ? Thanks again for sharing your knowledge with all of us Knuckleheads that are willing to learn, awesome job guys.

[@13thCP]

I take it the big, long silver pipe from the intake is an intake pipe? If so, why is the opening facing toward the rear? I love that build, I'd take one in a heartbeat!

[@tomhudson1409]

This is epic Al and Woody! Congrats on making some seriously good content. Would love to do similar thing on my petrol FZJ80 landcruiser, something special about diesel 4bies. Now she's all ready for Fraser Island mate, cheers!

[@baldis12]

Al looks happy. That's good 😊

[@catfish552]

The cameras under the car were great!

[@one4stevo]

Bloody Awesome job guy.. Look forward to seeing the next project.

[@mad87645]

Dam this one come out quick, good turnaround Woody

[@Brad_hj2tuff]

550 degrees pre turbo or after turbo? I have my egt probe tapped in the centre of the exhaust manifold. Much more accurate. Post turbo is a delayed reading

[@LokiMelb]

That's a damn good improvement over the old Petrol

[@crocosnz3322]

Da boys be rollin' coal! Now just needs a lift-kit, bigger wheels and portal axles. It'd be fierce!

[@Fuaarrkk]

SOOT GETS THE MOOT 🤙💦tough rig you got Al, another awsome series fellas 🍻

[@JoeJoeMoto]

That was a sweet episode! Loved the soot on the dyno!

[@jackharrison1478]

In this episode the boys go for a Sunday drive down Eumundi-Noosa road

[@Tuskanr]

The ending was perfect.

[@truetierra]

Nice work gents. What a beast!

[@MADBONE0]

i loved this build :D GU Patrol getting really popular these days!

[@arosuzi]

Gotta say that this series was again absolute awesomeness. But I tought that this TD42 would make way more than 210/550.

[@Engineerd3d]

That is a slick beast. Not digging the rolling coal, but cant win them all.

[@thesillyhatday]

This series was really interesting, I never thought Yoda would be leading in front of a camera

[@volvogt21]

The gfb3007 docs suggest the probe needs to extend at least 20mm into the dump pipe for an accurate reading. I think you are about 30mm off.

[@jarrod1687]

These boys need to do another series

[@stupa55]

A proper Diesel episode :D Sweeeet :D 12mm pump and rolling coal :D

[@kingmarz3635]

Awesome series guys!! More diesel tuning please I'm getting right into it and have been doing the same to my Challenger with the dirty old 4m40 2.8 and getting surprising results but my egt's are getting up there always over 400 and seen 700 a few times I'm surprised the head hasn't cracked as there's receipts in glove box from previous owner spending $5500 on new motor cos of cracked head.
