Due to my recently acquired knowledge more and more collegues turned to me for help which gave me the statute of the local expert and naturally raised me as a leader.

I’m sure you know this, and it might already be in your jumper harness, but that power wire off the alternator doesn’t usually have a fuse, so if the controller gets stuck it can pull so much current it melts and catches on fire. Might be worth adding an inline fuse if it isn’t present already. Really enjoy the videos though! :)

If you live in an area with nice quality soft water, you can fill from the hose for flushing and rinsing cycles only. Your last rinse and drain and your final refill of mixed coolant should be done with distilled or R.O. water though. Here in Arizona, if I filled the system with tap water the car would just vanish from existence as the car gods deemed me unworthy to own and abuse such machinery. 😸 Our tap water leaves a chalky film after evaporating even a tiny bit of it in a glass one time.

Great info here, well done. I like how you explained the fan shroud situation. I run a single spal slim mount with no shroud on my built turbo track/street car. It pulls plenty of air to keep things cool at idle, and there isn't a shroud at all, so plenty of flow at high speeds. I like how you explained the crossflow rad design too. Good stuff my guy!

Good job on presenting the cooling upgrade. One item you may wish to consider is installing a thermostat that fails open (FO). Most thermostats fail closed (FC), and then your engine overheats. With a FO thermostat, a failure does not cause an engine to burn up.

It's crazy how nice an aftermarket radiator is for even daily driving. My car used to vary between 180-195°F, got a koyorad radiator and now I never go above 185 unless I'm running it pretty hard. The oil runs less than 180°F now, too. It uses to be around 185-205°F

“If not for your cooling system it would literally just melt itself” yep first hand experience with that, my first Miatas heater core tube was held in just by the O-Ring because the bolt rusted out and my engine dumped all the coolant and ended up running so hot it ceased up the pistons and warped the block

@7:54 That is a cool looking box for music you have on the table.

I was watching this and thinking it would be cool to see some 240sx work. And then I see the cleanest kouki in the background 😳😳😳. I’ve had five in the past and I have a gx470 now same color as the one behind the 240! Great line up!!

Backwards fan has to be one of the most common DIY speedbumps in any hobby. I've done this on my car and my PC. Gotta be up there with cables that aren't long enough

Finally, he's gonna #BoostCreeps his Miata next week. Can't wait for it.

If he turbos the car in one episode, it's toast for sure. That should take enough work for 3 or 4 episodes if done right. Forged and upgraded engine internals, fuel injectors, fuel pump, turbo, intercooler, exhaust, tune. Without all of those things you're going to see a blown Miata on the first track day.

Money pit is the perfect series. Zach is one of the best pilots. Very knowledgeable but realistic to a garage experience.

It also does something to the idle. I know my obx rad idle had an awesome rythm as the fans kicked on and off because of the temp change caused by the difference in capacity. I cracked that radiator (i guess) causing a leak so i went back to oem spec

zach: it's wicked stretched out SNL Sean Connery: Just like your mom, Trebeck, ha ha ha ha

How does he know how to do all this stuff it’s incredible 🤯

He actually demonstrates a pretty wide set of skills beyond turning a wrench.

Maybe... Education?

My project car/fun weekend car is a 1966 Mustang - the cooling system has trouble keeping up in the winter, let alone on a track day. Cooling system upgrade are cool.

I like the learn as you go attitude. Well done. 👍

James is the definition of "I'm not a business man, I'm a business, man"

Good advice I live in Florida and we change our fluids every 3 or 4 years just to be sure not to mention the thermostat and the radiator cap. Many overheating problems are caused by bad thermostat and/or radiator cap

Great informative video , today I learned something

19:26 - imagine what would near by driver think if he had seen you making that face while driving :D

Love how much weight James has lost. good to see you healthy my man, you inspired me to do the same all love 🤙🏻🤙🏻

Thankfully he seems to be doing really well after the heart attack. 🙏 Was scary for sure.

This is mint. Moneypit is sick because it's relatable. It's actual shit that happens every time you work on cars. Like putting that fan on backwards, its refreshing to see.

Excellent video thank you!

The episode should have ended with them "beating" the Miata around the track and seeing what happens compared to the last track day.

They're going to add turbo and overheat it again 😄

Thats not really what track days are for. Upgrade a bunch of things and then go to the track. But to take it just to test the cooling seems petty.
