I love dave! Hes such a cool dude and a wiring wizard. I think him, scotty and Al (turbo yoda) are my favourite guests on this show and love seeing them get involved 😎
Dave is just a great person to have in your inner circle, as are other people that are regulars on MCM. Thing is, it is easy to attract toxic people, but to get kind and smart people to hang around, you need to be kind too. For me, that is what MCM is all about. That and Moog's little piggies.
Dave has always come across as a legendary human - I hope he's been energised by actually reading these comments! Thanks for being so awesome Dave, we all love you!
Dave is a LEGEND ❤
Dave's kindness is so abundant we can feel it through the interballs
I could just listen to Dave talk for hours. His contributions are priceless to the channel and my level of calm.

Love you Dave! Much respect to you and your skills! Thanks for being part of the show!
Dave and Tuning fork are legends. I remember meeting him at Autosalon in the early 00’s, was a legend then and still is now.
Dave has the POWER! We appreciate all his hard work!
Dave and Scotty are both Legends! So generous with their time and knowledge. We Aussies should be super proud of these two guys.
How does the camera person keep it so steady and how do they not fall over laughing some times? Good job that person!

Dave is soothing like the autumn rain, as trustworthy as a 90's Toyota or a Nokia 3310, Cooler than Ice-T. Dave's the guy you enjoy chugging lemon-squashes with and banter around a BBQ! Dave is an utter legend!
Dave is the best, I wish we all could have a wiring wizard and excellent human like Dave in our lives!
Dave. We all need a Dave in our lives. Gimme a cuddle mate :)
If I didn't know any better, I'd say you guys are preparing for a 24 hours of lemons race like we have here in the States. That car really fits that character. Love it, and have fun.

Yeah, we have various endurance lemon races over here. I'm pretty sure that's where it's going too. Although, I am keen on the theory that was kicked around in comments one of the previous videos, that this is the new Top Gear Australia "star in a reasonably priced car" vehicle!

Bloody love Dave. What a great guy! He works absolute magic. And I love when he loses his shit at Moog’s jokes 😂
Dave is a certified legend and an absolutely top bloke!
Dave is a legend - kind & clever
Kindness is such a bloody amazing show of strength, Also the brothers sharing love is SO BLOODY REFRESHING. Mighty Mods, you're the change we love to see in masculine spaces, Men sharing vulnerability and making safety for our emotions is a cultural shift that helps keep us mentally healthy!
Dave, the man, the myth...... The leg-end. Serious one smart cookie and love learning from his work.
How good is Dave? Dave is kind, clever, and more :) thanks for being awesome, Dave!
That shag carpet on your dash is holding ALL the smell! Put it in the BIN!

Man that iPad Mini on that windshield mount takes me back to the days when you retrofitted an iPad yes a whole iPad into the dash of an Outback this episode just feels so nostalgic especially with the Daihatsu
I say it in every video. Isn't Dave a legend? He's always smiling even when you present him with cars he'd probably rather not work on.
I love the way Dave just brings wiring and electronics down to a level where normal people can understand them. Makes things less scary.
Oh I once had my own Dave many years ago. His electrical work for me on my cars was awesome. Always appreciate your Dave.
Dave's a legend
Dave and Scottie both come across as kind and Gentlemen. I'd like mates like them.

You guys could have a luxury spin-off brand, called Gööchi, and specialise in furry handbags and questionably-scented candles.
Dave is a legend...... But so are you and Marty! You and the guys you get in on the channel are just excellent, and promote this accepting culture of your brilliant channel. Keep up the good work from an original viewer. 💪

Dave, you’re a legend, you’re awesome!

I love that this engine was fully refreshed. I dream of doing this if I had infinite money. Engines no one loves are engines because they were designed to be absolute forever machines. The fact we aren't paying more attention to "boring commuters" is a crime. There's so many thrashable platforms out there and because they don't have internet clout they don't get no love. Well this one got love and I love that.
I am thinking you take it to Japan to race against those other small cars you featured a couple of years ago or maybe some endurance racing… 24 Hours of Lemons or something like that.
Listening to Dave explain stuff 👌
Loved the look of pure joy on Moog's face when Marty said Daihatsu means "break the dyno." I think watching Dave help MCM so much over the years inspired me to say yes when my friend asked me to help him wire an engine swap and interior upgrades. So glad he continues to share knowledge with us DIY crowd
Dave is more popular than the build. Dave is a legend. Give the people more of what they want. More Dave!
What a legend Dave is!!!
Dave is a LEGEND!! He is LEGEN... Wait for it! Marty and Moog, you too. ...DARY! Legendary!!
I have never owned a Daihatsu.... So I can't relate to this build.... but I friggin love it! My first car was a 400 dollar nugget and I loved it with a passion. Throw all the time, money and love you can at it and make it the greatest nugget ever built!
All three of yous Dave, Martyn, Moog absolute legends always blowing my wormhole 1000 galaxies away
Dave is wearing a wedding band. Do you expect him to admit to knowing which way you swipe on Tinder? Probably he genuinely doesn't (I don't either), but even if he does, he will not admit it.
Everybody should have a Dave in their life, for sure. We do love him!
Yes, Dave and Scotty are such great people. Even if I don't KNOW them... I enjoy watching videos containing their content.
Dave is a legend, so are the rest of the people who help out these 2
Dave is such a great guy, deserves all the recognition. 🥰
Getting my first MCM merch this Dec couldn’t be more stoked on a piece of clothing! you guys are legends!
Onya Dave, and Scotty (Tuning Fork). When he appears here and there. Two of the coolest dudes in the business..
1:33 that was new.... And i liked it... Awesome production work as always... Cheers. P.s Dave your are a legend bro.. And we all love you...
Dave is great. Them chopping into the purple to put in crazy high tech gauges is the best!
Dave is very nice, kind and humble. Good man
+1 for seeing dave explain things and pull faces at moogs sense of humour
Thicker oil also requires longer warmups. If you thrash it before the oil softens up, the thick consistency causes more resistance against moving parts, internals can be bent or broken, bearings can run out of flow and lose the pressurized film layer protection they ride on. Still, a slightly thicker oil is always going to protect bearings better against the hard hits they take during wot racing shifts. Can't wait to see what you guys do to this little muppet-soaked nugget!
Great seeing the new dash and hearing about the suspension! Good stuff!
Dave stands for: Down-to-earth, Astute, Valiant, Enthusiastic
Dave has a kindness, the most important thing in human, for me. Be happy, Dave!
Dave is patient, Dave is kind. Dave does not envy, he does not boast, he is not proud. Dave does not dishonor others, he is not self-seeking, he is not easily angered. Dave does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. Dave always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Dave is Awesome. Dave is a legend.

“Star in an unreasonably priced muppet gooch”, don’t know if the PR boffins at TopGear will go for that! 😂
Dave is the most excellent "Kind, clever and other things" Human
“Muppet gooch” Now this feels a throwback to 2010 MCM😂😂
Dave my good sir you are a legend. Always nice to see another fella out there willing to help another out.
I met Dave once on new years eve, what a lovely guy!
The advice on the suspension and sway bars was 100% solid. I track a small hatch, and the upgrade to the front and rear sway bars, with a slightly bigger increase in the front, was a game changer. The handling is far more neutral, the understeer has been all but eliminated, and engaging lift-off-oversteer is super predictable. The change in my lap times was immediate!
One of the disadvantages of stacking a bunch of thread adapters on to a temperature sensor is that the value will 'lag' what is actually happening. Keeping the sensor face closest to the flow of the fluid is pretty important.
you guys have helped me much throughout the years with my own cars, i think it'd be very interesting to bring the zombie series back to life!
I'm here for the "be nice to Dave" train. Choo-choo!
Dave IS a Legend!!! Having friend's like that in your life? Make Life that much better👍
