    I think the videos are decent. Used G's are selling at somewhat reasonable costs compared to new or newer exotics. This brings in a lower net worth owner who wants/needs to do most repairs and maintenance themselves. I just think it's cool to see someone remove and replace the clutch in a Lambo. By far the most punchable face of the automotive based YouTubers is Stradman. How in the world did that lispy ******* get a million subscribers.

    I started watching them recently. I like that they are short and really interesting! I'm not a huge fan of the typical host, as he comes off as pretty arrogant, but I like what he has created.

    Still surprised not a lot of love for Mighty Car Mods in here. Great show..

    He bought Hoovie's Bentley GT (that he gave up on).

    Dude is the epitome of automotive repair ADHD. He might have gained a ton of subs, but I guarantee his long term quality viewership will do nothing but decline.

    Plus he has Mr2 and Sl63 that he wants to swap manual transmission in for last year and half.

    And now he bought that piece of junk Bentley.


    So like usual he is working on 5 different things at once.

    And nothing ever seems to be completed.

    Yesterday's video seemed to me like, way to save face for backlash from previous videos.


    .................

    Apparently Tavarish's wife is doctor so he has safety net, if youtube ventures start to backfire.

    *raises hand*

    I was the skeptical one.

    there was also two week period where he didn't upload anything so who knows what happened behind scenes.


    car also ran when he got it so its not like it was dead completely....

    it seems to be in limp mode again still shutting off at 2,500 rpm.


    that being said just because its running doesn't mean everything is done,

    what happens when he drives it, heat management, tune etc.


    crazy though that the clutch fix seems to have worked.

    brah you are so negative, Lol. Give the dude some credit. Glad dude got the car started. Pretty cool its a rwd gallardo 6 speed gallardo. That is going to be a beast to drive, Lol. Wonder why that the 2,500 causes the engine to cut off rather than just to stop the revs at 2,500. I hope he just doesn't go back to daily videos of him talking for 30 minutes for 5 minutes of work, however exciting that work is.

    Wait, it's rwd now? Gallardos are awd.

    Id guess the engine management/tune is the issue. Car could be in safe mode.

    Nah, this car that Tavarish has is 2008 model spyder which was only offered in AWD.


    About the RPM limit who really knows, the car did the exact same thing when Tavarish first picked it up.

    Revved it to 2,500 rpm and it just cut off maybe limp mode.

    About the RPM limit who really knows, the car did the exact same thing when Tavarish first picked it up.

    Revved it to 2,500 rpm and it just cut off maybe limp mode.
    I don't understand why everybody is jizzing themself that he got it started - it ran before, it's not like he rebuilt the engine?

    I think he's using 2 imbalanced turbos? Thing will probably grenade itself if he drove it.
    Booo

    It started but couldn't go into gear and was a fire hazard. Turbo, fuel and cooling systems, clutch completely redone. Janky chit the previous owner/salvage yard did were fixed. Let's not act like this is a weekend project.

    The car hasn't moved and it seems like tavarish has only run it for a few seconds before it cuts off at 2500. I wouldnt say anything is fixed until the engine is under FULL load, can operate properly and not blow up .

    The clutch was put together incorrectly but didn't look that great from what I remember when he put it back together. Just because he can put the car in gear doesnt mean the clutch is operating properly. Who knows if the cooling system actually works because the car has never gotten up to operating temp. He could have pissed in the reservoir and gotten the same result.

    Lots of things still need addressing and this is where things get real. Tony hooked it up before..curious to see if someone else comes in and saves the day.

    Yeah we'll see how it goes, but on paper it should be fine. Afaik the cooling system wasn't substantially changed, just relocated. The clutch will function enough to drive, even if it doesnt hold its rated torque or last very long. There's a physical connection to the tranny now where there wasn't before.

    Guessing he'll bring in a tuner "Tony" to sort out the bugs very soon.

    He posted a video on FB last night of it revving happily. I guess he figured what was causing the limp mode/cut outs.

    Turbos are not imbalanced, not even sure what you mean. He had a bad one and replaced it.

    That's due to Syvecs the maker of that aftermarket ecu in that gallardo contacted Tavarish and told him to get in touch with their ecu tuner in Florida and they would diagnostic and tune it for free.

    Syvecs doing good marketing with this move.


    Also lot of work was done behind the scenes while Tavarish took 3 weeks not to upload anything.



    As StallionRx above says lets wait and see once this thing starts running properly.



    ..............

    video of him revving beyond 6,000 rpm

    No doubt.

    I wish he would do stuff more like Chris from B is For Build where you're seeing progress instead of just 15-20 min of doing one small task.

    Hated B is for build initially with the G35 apocalyptic crap but now that guy is putting out great content and he is super fast, knows how to do everything.

    Rx7 wide body was sick and now the 240z with M5 E60 motor build.
