From Ick to SICK! Linus Tech Tips and Mighty Car Mods K24 7th Gen Plouffe Civic Swap

[@LinusTechTips]

Thanks for coming out!! It was awesome watching this, had no clue all of the little problems you had to solve before shipping up the engine. The car runs great now and is quick! -AC

[@VTECAcademy]

It sounded so good when Plouffe drives it!

[@Adr-z5k]

bruhhh. BEST COLLAB OF THE YEAR. I JUST FOUND OUT 4 CHANNELS AT ONCE. 🤣🤣

[@wpgspecb]

@@Adr-z5k I'm an LTT follower, I now follow all the other channels as well.

Me 2 😊

[@stratifiedauto]

Awesome meeting you all and collaborating! Looking forward to working with you on more Honda projects!

[@BrianGillespie_brianathasport]

Oh yeah. We need to come back sometime.

[@VTECAcademy]

Same here!

[@VTECAcademy]

We need a Ridge wallet sponsorship!

[@renzokukeng1776]

Never expected a tech bro and car tuner pro crossover but it's a welcomed surprise.

[@VTECAcademy]

We want to go back and make more stuff. So many possibilities with their tech.

[@theethicsofliberty4642]

👍

[@Faad3e]

I think both fields overlap a lot, if you like to overclock computers, then you're probably gonna like making cars faster, its the same concept. You take a machine, tune it, make it faster, happy days.

[@crisnmaryfam7344]

Lienus desperate to gain followers after losing millions doing his scam nonsense auctioning off peoples prototypes and lying about it.

[@dylan-howell]

Dude, you did the swap on a donor car first.. so dedicated. Great collaboration!

[@VTECAcademy]

We wanted to make sure everything went smoothly since we were doing an away game. Thanks for the kind words!

[@TheBadboy9ish]

Watching both the MCM and LTT cuts of this whole event, I hope people realise that this would not have happened without VTEC Academy. Between the knowledge, research, the parts sourcing, doing AN ENTIRE PRATICE SWAP to make sure it would all work! Just an unreal amount of work from VTEC Academy. Even crediting on screen the more background people that still contributed toward this project in a big way. LTT and MCM are two of my favourite channels, and VTEC Academy has definitely earned my respect and sub

[@WarValkyrie]

Just found this channel from LTT colab...

[@VTECAcademy]

Thanks for joining us!

[@DCZeroSeven]

Same! Awesome stuff!

[@raoufosullivan]

Came from LTT, this is something I didn't know I needed it until I saw it ❤

[@VTECAcademy]

Welcome!! Tinkerers UNITE!!

[@grant6985]

What sort of collab is THIS!?!?! Holy crap this is amazing!

[@dc5fallout]

Love this collab! Its like Infinity war but of content creators

[@VTECAcademy]

Good 💩 happens when we get together!

[@bluewolf2125]

Loved watching all the different perspectives!

[@LoeKie_Aus]

Great Vid, watched the LTT and MCM versions, and was enjoyable to see it from your perspective, thank you!!

[@ThatZenkiS14]

killed it with this vid idk why more people havent watched both vids

[@VTECAcademy]

Thanks! Ours gets a bit technical with swap specifics, but we love it!

[@Papajin68]

There's actually 3 vids so far as I know. The LTT one, this one, and the Mighty Car Mods one. There's some overlap of course, but each shows the project from a slightly different point of view. Was kind of interesting watching all 3.

[@user-neo71665]

I actually like the tech side of this one the best. I'm a muscle car guy myself but love cars and engine swaps. My daily is a sfa 383 fuel injected 4x4 1987 S10 blazer. My toy is a 1969 ls2 swapped nova. I'm about to start tinkering with a 1996 Honda Accord wagon I was given.

[@TheBadboy9ish]

@@Papajin68 fun fact there’s a fourth vid from the shop whose dyno they used

[@Papajin68]

@@TheBadboy9ish Not surprised... that's why I said "so far as I know". I realized one of the other groups that took part may have made a video as well including the alignment guys and the Haltech guys.

[@tikmasd]

Not sure I will ever be in need of the motor mount you make. But I can appreciate a local and very well made part!

[@VTECAcademy]

Appreciate it!

[@Rico0chet]

Absolutely Love the fact that all 3 of you posted the videos at the same time. I want to see more of these cross overs with you guys and LTT and Mighty.

[@VTECAcademy]

It was stressful with the swap being stuck across the border, but it was a blast to work with everyone.

[@wpgspecb]

I love the fact that each one of the 4 channels have a video that addresses different aspects of the build, its like bizzarro world where the guys from the 4 channels appear in each others videos like they are from different dimensions . I LOVE IT

[@psedog]

After watching the other two videos first. This felt like a behind the scenes video. Friggin' awesome.

[@VTECAcademy]

Thanks for checking us out! We had such a good time working with them.

[@Ben79k]

such a wonderful collab. put a smile on my face the entire time. good stuff

[@VTECAcademy]

Thanks for watching! It was so fun to do.

[@coreyhipps7483]

As someone with a 1993 Honda Prelude with a K-Swap compliments of the Hasport kit. A number of K-Tuned parts. A Haltech ECU. And a Wilwood BBK from Fast Brakes this build feels awfully close to home. Of course, my project has taken a lot more time. But this was a blast to watch!

[@VTECAcademy]

Sounds like a nice Prelude!

[@JosephHalder]

I already watch all three of these channels. I work in IT, and there's definitely some overlap in how the brain works between these hobbies. (I also have a turbo 5SFE Camry) Tinkerers unite, indeed.

[@ohitselii]

The collab we never thought we needed.. Love you guys!

[@bleedingsouls3785]

Found you guys from the Mighty Car Mods channel. You are a legend for doing the swap first before shipping everything up. That's some awesome dedication and totally made the video. Watched both the MCM & LTT video and knew none of this happened before hand. Subbed for more "Will this fit my Honda" content. Very amazing knowledge here. Hopefully Plouffe has documentation of all the parts from other Honda's in case he needs replacement parts :)

[@sntslilhlpr6601]

Wow, amazing stuff. If you want to know the details about this swap this is the place to be. I also noticed on another vid a lot of people asking about when the WAN show was interrupted, well you can see it right here near the end. Great collab, I can't even remember the last one so good.

[@BESTNOODLEREVIEWS]

this brings a tear to my eye. From seeing you guys post on Honda-Tech to doing big collabs like this, is pretty awesome! Especially when I watch those other channels as well lol, love it

[@VTECAcademy]

Honda-Tech. That’s some history.

[@mccbuddytaras6637]

watched all 3 videos made so far. so here for it.

[@mischa7823]

@stratifiedauto has a video of it too :D

[@itsprod6653]

A collab between two channels that I watch! Wasn't expecting this crossover but am with it! 🔥🔥

[@helloukw]

I was a MCM an LTT fan and subscriber, but now I'm hooked to VTEC as well, nice channel and great work. Loved the vid! Its my 3rd in the row to watch, after MCM and LTT, but somehow felt new again. I guess taking a different perspective is the key to everything feeling great again. Thanks!

[@swagatrout3075]

I am so jealous of Ploffe

[@VTECAcademy]

Even with that paint job! It drives so much better now.

[@diyclay525]

Best LTT video yet! Love all the guys u had on this episode.

[@jakeberry4127]

Great video! Heard that this was happening from the WAN show, was awesome to see you pop out of that hood along with Marty and Dave.

[@2K8Si]

I've been familiar with all of these channels for years... Never, EVER, did I expect a colab with all these guys... I am in the Matrix. I don't know else to explain this. Awesome. 😲

[@grubbyga7601]

We need more of this collab. Nice work. 🎉

[@VTECAcademy]

Totally! Let’s take it to the track.

[@VTECgoesBOOM]

The collab that we needed! Lol long time subscriber to all 3 channels

[@nickles978]

This is my dream matchup!!

[@MickeyMishra]

This really was the best video I could have hoped for on a Friday. Never even expected it, but WHOA! Not even into Honda's, but it was a blast nonetheless to see the entire teams of people from Kangroo Land, The PNW and Canucks all doing their thing.

[@lindonbeckford6116]

Thanks for that welth of knowledge , ❤ it.

[@ccmgaming]

This is great because i watch both Vtec Academy and LTT, i just cant believe you did the swap before the swap to swap the swap🤯 thats some real dedication!

[@VTECAcademy]

LOL And the whole thing almost got ruined by getting stuck in customs!

[@high633]

Such a good collaboration and each of the three videos shows alittle bit something different. Must recommend watching both the mcm and ltt videos in addition to the vtech academy one.

[@Sarishie]

one of most fun car channel i've been ever watch, there so much thing i learn about car from this video, thank you guys for making it, i'll recommend it to my friend to watch

It's a shame LTT did give you guys more recognition. You guys made this build possible, but MCM overshadowed everyone else involved.

Absolutely amazing collab!

[@rentaspoon219]

Here from LTT and MCM this was awesome

[@ryanwreyford9039]

Love the MCM and LTT guys but wasn't expecting to see a legend of the game I clicked the LTT vid. Awesome to see all the details that really goes into this swap.

[@AnalogX64]

You got yourselves a new sub 😁You guys did a fantastic job over at LTT. 😁👍💖💖💖

[@Zoonie81]

Haha what a sick collab VA!!

[@0x6772]

At 3:22, you can observe something rarely seen in his own online content: Linus doing actual work on a car. I'm not trying to cast aspersions on anybody here: I'm just noting the pleasing divergence, by virtue of context, in relative public, of a public figure from how that public normally sees them. I'd like to see more of this! (That's not specifically anybody here on video doing things they don't normally do, but generally - ick, this term - "content producers" periodically producing content outside their immediate, expected expertise.) This whole collaboration was fun to watch through, including even scrolling through the comments on each video as others found a way into stuff with which they were unfamiliar (in certain edge cases - both "cars" and "technology" are certainly keywords by which KZbin already presents videos to me, but I've never owned or worked on Hondas - "others" includes me).

[@Grimsoar]

First time viewer. I popped over from the LTT Channel. Great video. Love the work you did. Keep it up!

[@ryanayon6664]

Love!

[@VTECAcademy]

Thanks!!

[@michaelharrison1093]

A great video. I get tired of hearing people saying that modern vehicles are too complex for enthusiasts to work on and modify and hark back to the days of carburetors and distributor based ignition systems.

[@AarenPho]

One of the collabs of all time from someone who enjoys K swaps and computer parts lol (my wallet hates me)

[@VTECAcademy]

It’s so fun tho! This one got out of hand for sure. 😂 Between the swap, Haltech and 1/1 rear wing… the wallet would be 💀

[@wanzhaf932]

one more guide to fit in k24....now i need to invest in gps tracker incase someone decide to drive away with my daily odyssey k24a5...owesome job guys...the commitment of pre fitting is really underrated...

[@theniceneighbor]

I would give anything to hear. Brian, explain a little bit about what modification possibilities exist for the k24z3 engine in the 8th gen Honda Accord. It is the redhead stepchild of the k24 engines because of its odd cam profile. There must be something that we can do with these engines given their abundance. We know the car is super heavy and will never be fast, but certainly there are some things that can be done to make them more fun to drive.

[@VTECAcademy]

That’s coming.

[@---l---]

So good.

[@voltare2amstereo]

3 videos should be combined and make one of those DVD user choice scene type things

[@VTECAcademy]

Lol

[@kevincumberland4142]

Love the video collaboration was awesome! But my question is. I love my mazda5 but I don't necessarily love the engine platform. Is there any chance that it's possible to swap it and keep the mazda tranny?

[@VTECAcademy]

Someone would need to make a transmission adapter and clutch.

[@l0gane]

Sweet!

[@INVSBL_HND]

Very strange seeing two completely unrelated KZbin channels I follow crossing over like this, but I’ll take it.

[@professorlife1619]

179hp or was it torque? Wouldn’t it be closer to 200hp? Considering fact not running 3in exhaust, rbc intake cam gear, type S oil pump

I’ve been told that’s how you know if it’s an EK, EJ, EG…Does anyone know of a website that lists in “detail” all the parts needed to swap out to an K24 or K20 manual OR a top notch shop in the Los Angeles area… any information pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

Only a couple minutes in, coming straight from the LTT and MCM cuts,I sadly have to say your audio is horrible. You really need to look into that asap, no explanation necessary - referring to the first seconds of LTT's recent video "Surround Sound System for under $250" video instead, that says everything!

K24! Why is that only makes 179 hp? Should it made more than that?
