XFWD DSM First Start!

Hey, Joe here! In this video, I fit my custom Aerospace Components brakes and start Britney for the first time on the new set up!

[@Jafromobile]

This is next-level, bro! Might have to snag a set of those tie rods for the Expo-knuckled Elantra. Can't afford those brakes, though! lol

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks man! Things have gotten crazy over here. Never thought I’d build a car like this.

[@ec17pse]

Hit me up when you need a set and I can get you sorted, I have stock of them

[@Shaunbonzer5]

It’s crazy how Tom and Jafro follow Joe. And probably the other ways around too. It’s like the gathering of the DSM YT MVPs. So cool

[@JoeWrenches]

Love those guys!

[@TomsTurboGarage]

Congrats Joe! 😀👍🏻

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks Tom!!!

[@Shaunbonzer5]

Tom!!!!!

[@rich5330]

Britney con Queso! she looks good dude!

[@JoeWrenches]

Hahaha thanks man!

[@KanjoNights]

Congrats, Joe! You've put an immense amount of time and dedication into this build, and I'm happy to see it all coming together.

[@JoeWrenches]

Thank you!

[@Californification]

Awesome job Joe. Didn’t realize you had a channel. This is great. Good luck.

[@JoeWrenches]

Ricky Sandhu?! Check out my other videos! Almost all of them start with "Hey, Joe here!" I got that from YOU! Thanks Ricky!

[@Californification]

@@JoeWrenches Haha. Yes Joe. Ricky here😂

[@ec17pse]

Thanks for the mention on the Bump steer kit Joe. Glad you like it and it fits your build plans. I thought it was going on a 1G so when someone uses a different knuckle I get worried incase its a different taper width but thankfully these work well for you! Always around for support if you need any

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks Bobby! Still amazed by that shipping!

[@ec17pse]

@@JoeWrenches Haha, I do shock some people still that sometimes it can get to you next day ALLLL the way from little old UK.

[@SlippingTime]

Looks like a good season ahead for you. She definitely has had a diet. Great work Joe as always!

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks! Trying to drop another 200lbs!

[@magcivic4771]

It's alive it's alive it's been awhile. Good job bro

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks!

[@onehourgarage]

Awesome! Brittany is a work of art!

[@onehourgarage]

how much weight was on the "butt hurt bar"? is that thing sub 2k?

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks Eric!

[@JoeWrenches]

The weight is in the video. 2181. It’s 120 lbs heavier than before all the changes. Which is how much the weight plate is. So makes sense. Besides some heavier components that were added there was some light ones added too. Still have to reconfigure the interior with the carbon dash and light steering column as well as the fiberglass/Lexan doors.

[@JoeyBoozeOhio]

blue manifold is wonderful.

[@JoeWrenches]

Thank you! I'm really digging it.

[@sabbath4130ify]

Congrats on getting it started. I know the feeling of finally being able to hear your car again after it being down for months. Engine bay is looking super clean

[@JoeWrenches]

Thank you!

[@bayilily]

Love seen something diff Keep it pushing and cant wait to see what it does

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks for. checking it out!

[@enriquequinones2737]

Looking good man! 💪💪💪

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks homie!

[@RaceCarRichie]

Joe I can’t wait to see this car rip!!!!!

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks Richie!

[@N3ZFAB]

Hell yeah man! Excited for you and excited to see the car do work this year!

[@JoeWrenches]

You and me both!

[@ozman1975]

Oh so close Joe👍🏼

[@JoeWrenches]

I see light at the end of the tunnel

[@digitald5851]

New sub. Looks like an awesome build!

[@JoeWrenches]

Thank you for watching!

[@whoismario]

Once again the stapon head cam would be helpful. 🤣🤣

[@JoeWrenches]

🤣🤣🤣

[@zachkelley1867]

That thing is light

[@JoeWrenches]

Needs to be 200lbs lighter

[@philboostdemon5444]

Nice job man! When are you looking to make it to the track?

[@JoeWrenches]

Thanks! Trying to make The Reuninion at BMP April 21-22

[@KatieMontana1]

Boujee!!!

[@JoeWrenches]

True!

[@edgarsreinholds5931]

Flip quick jacks 180?

[@JoeWrenches]

They are flipped 180. They balance better like that.

[@EnlightenedIllusions]

new hardware for the beadlocks?

[@JoeWrenches]

Considered it, but I don’t think that will get me much. Will probably swap out the hardware next tire change for whatever extra clearance I can find.

[@EnlightenedIllusions]

@@JoeWrenches Thank you for sharing all of your experience.

[@TravisG001]

Mr. Wrenches, r u going to the shootout this year?

[@JoeWrenches]

I’m planning on it!

[@kik0013]

Is the car automatic or manual?

[@rich5330]

this has an auto

[@kik0013]

Dam, Auto can’t compete in the XFWD class per rules must be manual!

[@JoeWrenches]

That’s not true.

[@kik0013]

SFWD allows automatic transmission, XFWD does not !

[@JoeWrenches]

Look, I’m not going to argue with you. Google. XFWD Class rules for FL2K, The Reunion, XFWD at WSOPM and XFWD at Shakedown at Virginia Motorsports Park, on Bradenton Motorsports Parks website say auto allowed, World Cup Super Street rules which are essentially XFWD auto is allowed. CMRs new X-Street class that replaced XFWD auto allowed. They have different weight penalties for nitrous based on manual or auto in XFWD. So, sorry, but your’re wrong. Thanks for trying to help.

I love cheese
