brandon can you do a revving vid/short of the figo, i feel like mine has slow throttle response and i want to hear yours
Hey brother check the most recent shorts video that has some revs and a flyby 🔥
Sounds lekker !!! How do you make your car to sound like that 😅
This one has SWR headers/branches 50mm stainless steel freeflow and 1 x resonator
Bro I seeying.my 2010 petrol Figo has low mailage please tell a solution 🥲
Hey man what do you mean low mileage?
Hi there Brandon may I ask how do I get invited to your breakfast Run's I own a figo
Hey brother just pop me a message on Instagram and I'll send you the invite link for the WhatsApp group chat with all the gents that own Figos
Yo Brandan, hope you good. Quick question I've got a 2014 figo and i want to fit 2017 figo front seats. Do you think they can fit without any issues?
Hey bro I'm not to sure I know guys have fitted ST150 seats without issues but not sure if the newer Figo has the same struts and mounting points on the seats
Replace those after market carbs every 1 and a half years
This is an OEM Nissan Carb sold from SSS bakkies, but will definitely keep an eye on how it performs
@@BrandanHewitt oh that's lovely...
Thanx man
Bro Ive been rebuilding my carb soo much and its still in kak condition. How did you make yours soo smooth and powerful?
I actually bought a new carb from SSS bakkies they come pretuned and you don't have to make any adjustments, if it still doesn't run proper the timing is off but I also got an electronic distributor
Brother can you make a video on how you set your carb to be soo smooth . My is rough idling and underpowered
I'll check and make a shorts video about that in the next week or so, just be sure timing is right as well that might be a cause of underpoweredness as well🙏🏻
Im loving the 1400 content 💯🔥
Thank you so much brother there's still lots to come🔥
That was an experience and a half! Great time out with you Brandan, till the next one!
Was an awesome time out brother thank you for always being willing to join for adventures
MY favourite Ferrari 488 Pista that twin turbo V8 NAsty🔥👌
They are amazing, a lot of people dislike it because they miss the N/A Ferrari V8 sound but it's still a freaking good car
El primer fiesta negro q sale en el video se ge genial, hubiera estado genial verlo mas en el video, saludos
Perdí muchas imágenes porque los archivos se corrompieron, pero pronto habrá una reunión nuevamente y espero poder obtener más tomas de esa belleza.
Hey boet where did you get the coilieovers?
Hey brother I imported them from the UK, I have to start looking for a new set cause mine have got a lot of Km's on them so if I find something I'll make a video on where to find them
@@BrandanHewitthoezit! Did you make the video? I’m sort of looking for new shocks
Hey man I did make the all the videos on this channel and as I said I imported the coilovers from the UK
you have gained a new subscriber bro 🔥im so inspired to also modify my figo as well
Aah thank you for subscribing brother means a lot, you should check on Facebook for the Fiesta and Figo group then you join the WhatsApp group
Definitely was really great broskiii... Keep up the great work brother and it's amazing how much the cars have changed 😁😁😁
Most indeed brother everyone's always busy with something on their rides
What was the cost on this?
Hey brother for stainless steel 50mm with one box was R1850 as far as I remember because I didn't put a tail piece on
Hi buddy, pls share Daisy's (Vanderbijlpark) numbers for parts... Also working on a project!
+27 72 801 7677 Hope that number still works. Keen to see yours, send me one pic's on Instagram
How can i get hold of you
Hey brother check the link in the videos description for my Instagram or email
Love die vids
Dankie brother daars nog baie wat kom
Casually walking and chatting while he’s drifting behind you 😂😂
Haha that's how good of a driver he is😂😂😂😂
I trust his skills
I am ethan it was very fun
Griddy for the win
Hahaha right foot creep i am down for the heat @BrandanHewitt
@@BrandanHewitt ja nee
Bra is from nigel?
No brother I'm from Kempton but I just prefer doing my exhausts there at Solly's 💪🏻
@@BrandanHewitt thats awesome, thought for a second you are in Nigel😂
Haha it isn't a bad town at all, small but hosts a lot of awesome built cars
@@BrandanHewitt yeah, there is a leka 1400 here, love this town cant complain living here
Yea brother you don't take a chance against any 1400 or Corsa or Citi golf from Nigel😂
I finally got a 1400 for my first car, been wanting one for years. Awesome bakkies, n regte kannie dood nie👌
They are indeed a kannie dood, I've also always had the goal of owning one and it's just been a massive blessing and pleasure. It's a very capable bakkie
My first car too! Have mine for 6 years now. It will be used as the hearse at my funeral lol! Never selling it
This has me dead , definitely pinning this comment 😂
I like so sound the sound good tel wht did you do
Thank you brother I appreciate that, well she has SWR Unequal length headers/branches with a 50 mm freeflow exhaust, 1 x resonator and depending on which part you like a JDM back box or no back box
Yo mahn , i was wondering if you possibly have the user manual for the nissan bakkie
I don't have one myself but how can I assist?
misfiring badly
Yes putting in new spark plugs soon and doing a service to see if that sorts it out
Wats ur plans for bakkie man get a VVL motor would be sick
Starting plans are to boost the A14 motor they comfortably make 150kw, but would bin future beanna look at a K20, VVL on these is as common as the 4age so want to do something unique
Everyone keeps telling me to drop vvl... Way too common. Boosted A14 or a K series is my future options
My guy u got a bakkie now nice man👍Congrats🙏God Bless🙏
Thank you my brother all by God's grace. It has been a blessing since I've had it
If you want to keep the JDM-styled canon look then you can get a rep HKS back box from SideHustleGarage. The ones they stock have next to no baffling inside so it shouldn't affect the sound. Think it's about R650 or R700 if I remember correctly.
Will definitely consider it brother, I know the guy from sidehustlegarsge pretty well so will check in with him regarding one of those🙏🏻
Yo man keep going from cape town✌️God bless🙏
Most definitely will do brother thank you for the support 🙏🏻
Bumper bro ? 😢
It's coming brother this video was pre-recorded. I have a business I run full-time so car videos is stuff I make when I have time
How big of a difference do the branches make to the exhaust sound?
A massive difference for me honestly but if you keeping stock exhaust with branches it will just have a different tone and slightly louder
Saw the car in vaal at Nwu i was wondering where the exhaust was 🤣
Hahaha yea it was off already last weekend 🤭
I like the sound without the back box... It's definitely softer than with the broken box but it also sounds better in it's own way. Most definitely add a tail piece and let it be brother. It sounds amazing.
Thank you brother yes like I said it's Asif it's a bit deeper but will definitely finish it off nicely again soon
Jap box all day
Keep doing modify
She'll always receive the mods🔥
Ons moet n custom mod maak vir jou kar my vriend ,iets wat net jy sal he🔥
Daai klink Vir my Soos n plan, die JDM box is te maklik Om te copy🤭 die Ander mods ook😂
Ur front grille is looking awesome!
Thanx my brother needs to get a new bumper though but when I do I'll do the same thing and make a video about it🔥
@@BrandanHewitt Awesome !
Will show how Install the grill everything 🙏🏻
@@BrandanHewitt Sounds good ! maybe i would try to install a grille for my figo too !
It really makes a big difference to the look of the car🔥
How many mileage in petrol
I average around 550km per tank but city driving cuts it down to about 480 km per tank
@@BrandanHewitt it means per litre average is 12.5 this average is with ac or not
It's without AC I don't use my AC, but I've managed to get 13.4 before but average in the 12s
@@BrandanHewitt my car giving me 7 or 8 mileage with ac
And that's why I do t use the AC😂 the 1.4 is to weak for AC and good mileage 😂
Hey Brandan, Have you got a part number on that heater hose? My figo has just blown a hole in the same pipe
Hey brother as far as I know the part number is 18472A but they will know what you're referring to if you mention that it's the heater core hose, my advice is buy the kit that has the long and short one, it works out way cheaper that buying individually
Finally found one after a week of searching. Part number is 2S6H 18K579 AB
Sorry that you had to struggle so much I Searched on Google but guess the pdf I got was labelled wrong. Just remembered to bless the coolant system properly and use coolant not water🙏🏻
Hi,is there Sid 804 ecu?
Hey brother I'm not sure it's the standard ECU that comes with the 2014 ambiente model
Hi man I would not do adapter plates on the Figo. I had rims on my car and still have the adaptors with me and it only gave me issues to be honest. I will DM you and show you the images of the offset I had while attempting my journey with my baby.
Hey brother I appreciate the feedback, the adaptor plates would be for the Nissan 1400 for the 4 x 108 pcs wheels to fit on that hub. These wheels have multi PCd and luckily it's a 4x 108
Hi boss are you in Cape town?
Hey brother I'm based in Johannesburg but how can I assist?
From cape town brother🙏Figo still looks good👍
Faieez brother you always supported the Figo and I appreciate you for that🙏🏻❤️
@@BrandanHewitt always gotta show love man god bless🙏
Honestly appreciate it a lot brother
Find the Iridium equivalent of the Ford Figo and Nissan 1400 spark plugs for the next service. They're expensive but you only have to replace them every 50000kms and you could potentially pick up a few kilowatts. Loving the TE37s 🔥If you do change the wheel colour, try white. Sounds odd but white wheels on a white car come out really clean.
I'm definitely considering white or possibly a gunmetal grey, there is this really dope candy apple green that I saw on Rays' Instagram which looks dope too. I'll definitely consider those plugs for the next service and make a video if I feel like there is a power difference thank you for the suggestions🙏🏻
The accents are killing me😂
Mate it what you gotta do the keep the people entertained 😂
What's going on mates😂
Yea nah yea Good on ya Mate
Man love the rims they are my favourite rims aswell been looking for a set like that for my figo if you don’t mind me asking where did you buy them from and yea i recon keep them on the figo I think the black on white looks really cool
Thank you brother appreciate that, I actually stumbled across them in Springs when I was out looking for parts for the 1400 the shop had them as wheels for their one 1400 project but the pcd didn't match what they wanted and I couldn't resist myself from getting my favourite wheel
Oh ok cool hope everything turns out good for the 1400 project looking forward to it keep up the hard work
Thanks brother appreciate it, definitely keen to see the 1400s potential in the future
Hi Brandan,my ford figo is cutting when l release the clutch from gear one, what could be the problem
Hey brother what do you mean cutting? Is it dying as you trying to accelerate?
Our favourite Figo is back with another video. Not gonna lie man these new wheels look great but I honestly love the Schmidts , they looked amazingly badass if you know what I mean 💪🏾 🔥🔥
Brother that's why I'm considering leaving these wheels for the Nissan 1400 because it's JDM on JDM then where I feel too the Schmidts are unique to the Figo and have pretty much been the thing that sets it apart
