Mighty Car Mods

Marty's Mum's Subaru blew it's engine so with the help of Benny, we get a brand new EJ207 short block and some reconditioned heads and make an all new engine ready to smash back into the car.

Last episode we pulled the engine out of Marty's Mum's Subaru that she blew up because of too much drag racing. This episode we work out why it went bang and what to do to get it fixed..

Our Mum's raced their cars at Sydney Dragway. Marty's Mum's engine then blew up so we replaced it with an EJ20 WRX Engine from a half cut of unknown origins.

Our LS1 powered HQ Holden hits the dirt in the ultimate thrash down some closed down roads while chasing down trophy trucks and being hunted by helicopters.

Time is running out as we battle to finish the car and turn the key before the big TV appearance!

We get our LS1 prepped and installed in our old Holden HQ race car.

The build of our HQ Holden begins as we remove the old engine and replace it with something more skid-worthy.

A new project car arrives at the shed. He bought it without even seeing it then sent a truck to pick it up...

Is your battery going flat or you need to store your car without draining the battery?

2Sexy has arrived back home, and now it's bonnet is up in the MCM Shed alongside the 240Z which also needs to be fixed...

After weeks of work, 2Sexy's Evolution to a Big Block + Turbo setup is finally done so we take it for a drive!

Marty and Al got the 'big block' 2.4 litre engine installed into the ex-show car Lancer, now it's time to turbocharge it!

After Al's motorbike accident, It's up to Marty to go apprentice style and get his show car turned budget race car ready for it's mad new big block turbo setup...

With the blown up 4G15 removed from Marty's Lancer, Al helps him fit up the new "big block" 2.4 litre 4G69.

A while back Marty turned his Mitsubishi Lancer Sex-Spec show car into a track car. After exploding the engine while racing Moog in an Evo X, the car was then sent up to Turbo Yoda's shed on a truck.

So many people have asked us these questions so we decided it was time to serve you up the answers!!

In this track battle of epic proportions its old VS new as the RB26 powered FairladyZ goes head to head with the 3.6L Turbo Subaru Wagon on Ethanol. Loser sells car...

This project has taken a full year, and now the 1975 JDM Fairlady is running an RB26 from a Skyline GTR, so it's time to take her for a drive...

The contents of this envelope will seal the fate of our 240Z project, but it's not all smooth sailing as we work towards getting our JDM Fairlady legal...

Roll cage plus super stealthy hidden stereo install!

Hang with us for the day as we work on our JDM nuggets* in the MCM garage. Plus Marty reveals his latest project... *Fairlady is not a nugget... really it's not.

To make this JDM S30 legal on the road, it has to pass some mandatory engineering conditions including a plate brake test - so in this episode we're taking you with us on this raw episode of MCM...

We got some plastic flares off eBay to make our car fit our awesome new wheels that we restored last episode.

In this episode Marty buys some 2nd hand wheels off the internet and soon realises they are rubbish.

They told us not to do this... we did it anyway.

In this episode we reveal a higher power figure plus discuss the cost of the car and answer your questions about the RB conversion...

Our RB is alive so it's time for the exhaust, suspension set up and then power runs on the Dyno to see how the finished conversion goes...

After months of work converting our S30 Fairlady to run an RB26 from a Skyline GTR, we turn the key for the first time....

Our RB26 is in, and now in this huge episode, the decision has been made to replace the whole rear end of the car.

The factory diff and brake set up was not going to be enough to handle RB power, so the decision is made to replace all of it!
