Seal your body from the elements with an HPA hoodie, or if you're game sacrifice your arms (who needs them anyway) with an HPA t-shirt instead. Get yours here: hbit.ly/MerchHPA - Taz 👨🏻

High Performance Academy thanks for all videos!!! saludos

[@hpa101]

Cheers for watching! - Taz.

[@Errol.C-nz]

@@hpa101 not one of your best presentations...gotta be more interesred in what you're saying (monotonous)...& more shots ON, what you're commenting on please...

[@-MacCat-]

This is the sort of information, and delivery, that sets your channel streets ahead of any other of this type on KZbin. Thank you, as always, HPA. Keep it up.

[@hpa101]

Thanks for the support Mac! Appreciate it - Taz.

[@themaddrabbit1]

The information you provide is priceless. A huge wealth of knowledge. For a small guy with big dreams on his build. You never fail to point me in the right direction or for that matter. Make me consider aspects I had not even conceptualized. I for one appreciate your channel, your direction is intended for the serious. I hope you never conform to popular entertainment as so many existing channels are/have.

[@alundrasrt]

Very serious footage here, thanks.

[@hpa101]

Glad you enjoyed it Karim =) - Taz.

[@CirrisInc]

Nice to see our hipot tester in action. Great video!

[@Takeitlightly6]

Send a more detailed video to me too!

[@Takeitlightly6]

Someday Andre will come to my Garage too…right now its all in my head.

[@ODGColornChrome]

I absolutely love your electronics coverage! Your the best I've found! Great work!

[@hpa101]

Wow, thanks!

[@gordowg1wg145]

Damn, never thought of using short pieces of heatshrink at the ends for further identification of the wires - it's like the trace used in older cars' wiring - it could even be further refined with two pieces. eg. 8 basic colours > 56 combinations (same colour as base not used for easier visual) > 392 combinations. Sure would beat trying to read tags, or type under a clear sleeve, that might be rather difficult to read in place. Same principle would also apply to sensors, oil, fuel, coolant hoses, etc, where needed.

[@charlesshutt4932]

This is an eight and a half minute video of someone talking to you about the subject with a couple visual references.

[@Nefarious86]

Your point is?

[@leenux1707]

as always, a lot of good info ! thank you

[@hpa101]

Cheers Lee! Always exciting to be able to visit places like Renvale - Taz.

[@zatiticherry3421]

Always Dope! We Hi-pot and point to point all the harnesses on the systems I work on too. Nice!

[@AL_BONNIA]

You're not even selling b.s..... everything that was said made total sense.... I found the quality control procedure to be more impressive then making the harness itself.... Very nice work!

[@Nicrobeeld]

Thanks for this great video and insight! Much appreciated.

[@hpa101]

Cheers mate, appreciate the comment :) - Taz.

[@sanityd1]

Congrats on the 100k guys

[@hpa101]

Thanks for the support mate! Slowly but steadily growing =) - Taz.

[@pedrocacao5081]

Thanks for the quick inside on mototsport wiring HP Academy :)

[@clodola1]

With discontinued parts coming more prevalent for 90's cars (i.e. A80 Supra), for a road car , is a motorsport harness suitable , what Q's should be at the forefront when choosing a Harness builder , is it a good time to switch to a PDM or will it be increasingly difficult to integrate road going ancillaries not normally found on a race car?

[@20VTLT]

Thanks for the footage

[@hpa101]

Cheers for watching - Taz.

[@patofdubois1]

awesome video, thanks for sharing!

[@mikeyg4297]

Metro 6r4 @6:19 was rebuilt near me

[@ohmfab]

Good info, would have been nice to see an actual harness being made

[@hpa101]

I hear that. Sadly everything that was being made was under tight NDA, as is the nature of high level professional motorsport. Even getting what we got was pretty tough. :) - Ben

[@x1000plusx]

Is it just ke or you look like Chris Hemsworth/Thor from the side?

[@topgunm]

Wow - you guys have QUALITY videos! SUBED :) I would love to have this type of wiring in my car!

[@nismofreak33]

and here I am using Narva crimps 🤣

[@BIGSMOKE-bl2lq]

Same lol

[@hpa101]

If they suit your application and budget, it is what it is, but it's not a huge investment in gear or time to move up a few rungs from those ;) - Taz.

[@SouthlandFlyer]

Done correctly you probably will have no issue with narva crimps, but you will find that DT and DTM connectors are pretty cheap, or alternatively I have had good reliability out of the 2/4/6/8 way connector blocks using open barrel brass spade connectors. I use the waterproof DT/DTM connectors outside the cars cabin but inside the cabin I have been using the basic non-waterproof ones. Remember this is a professional motorsports orientated channel so even though some other products will be suitable, you wont likely see them talking about those cheaper but still do the job perfectly fine alternatives. They send rockets to space with the basic spade connector blocks... dont worry, done right they will be fine!

[@ErZocktLP]

This is nothing against a wiring harness for military application

[@Leonelf0]

sorry, but the connectors are actually based on mil spec, just lighter. the wires are high temperature as well

[@ErZocktLP]

@@Leonelf0 in military aviation you have a temerature rage from -96 to +300C an they are all tested

[@hpa101]

You've made s a really, really broad and non-specific statement, but in a nutshell, the requirements for motorsport are different from military applications so you can well expect they are not going to be the same - Taz.

[@radomanvr]

High Performance Academy im an aircraft mecanic and i can tell you the harness look the same as an Aircraft www.skygeek.com/connectors-pins-and-sockets.html

[@abattain]

It’s basically the same as military aircraft

[@PhoenYx114]

it is not that complicated as he telling us, few weeks of training and almost anyone can do it

[@hpa101]

Yes sir! You can train and educate yourself on any topic to become proficient at it. That's how it all works 😉 Hope you enjoyed the video - Taz.

[@PhoenYx114]

Im making and instaling wiring in hreavy Forest equipment where it must be oil and dust proof na also they must have strong physical structure...
