Donut Media is at the center of digital media for the next generation of automotive and motorsports enthusiasts. We are drivers, drifters, and car enthusiasts who love to tell stories.
For the Cars video: What determines sentience in the car world? Planes are sentient but only have one purpose. Do the planes go home to their families? Is a chainsaw sentient because it has a motor? The list goes on
another one is like why are there busses
Was the auchwitz train sentient
How is gas and electricity being maintained?
Where are their hearts? they clearly have eyes and a tongue they must have other organs is it the engine or would that classify as the brain ? How Did the Italian cars get to America are they prisoners shipped or is that migration?
well one theory of the cars world is that cars take place after Wall-E so they are not actually real vehicles but rather bugs that evolved in to vehicles.
as a deaf car enjoyer I just wanna say thank you for the captions that you guys put on your videos! most car channels seem to turn them off or leave it autogenerated- but I have been watching y’all for awhile and it means a lot to me! (ps. make that cars video)
same here!
Same.
That's nice. All channels should do that, especially if they already have their script written down, then it's a simple copy paste.
@@darthsnarf sadly it's not just a simple copy paste, they still have to time the captions correctly. Unless if that doesn't matter. Also a lot don't run with a script, like with donut it's obvious they have a script for questions and stuff but besides that when it's rankings and stuff there likely isn't one.
Ayoooooooo! I rarely know any other deaf car enjoyer other than myself. I'm also currently working as a automotive tech so much respect to you!
I remember watching the Fast & Furious with my Dad. He cracked up when they showed off this snap on tools. He was like, who doesn't have them. When he died I went through all his cool tools, and there was his set of snap on tools. 😊
On the clip from "Dazed and Confused"... funny how Jobe says it's like he just read the owners manual. The very next line is the dude in the black tee calling Wooderson out for that motor being available in a magazine.
Fun fact: The creator of the Cars movies has said in past interviews that there were once humans in the Cars universe, but they were all killed at one point, possibly in a war between humans and cars. That's why cars still have door handles, steering wheels etc. They're vestigial organs left over from a time before they shook off the yoke of their oppressors.
bumping this comment
We need a rated R pre Cars movie
Lmao holy shit. Id watch that if they made some more adult prequel of Cars.
I think humans came back from space after wall-e movie and then created the sentient cars that eventually rebelled and destroyed their creators.
There is absolutely no way LMAOOO
The place 'radiator springs' in cars is the same as using a body part and then a body of water.. the same as liver-pool
this is rly neat
Not to mention the piston cup. Like calling something the Aorta marathon
@@KD6-3005 HE DID WHAT IN HIS CUP?
All their cities have car puns, but Los Angeles, California is just Los Angeles, California. Could have easily been Los Axeles, Calipernia
that's the equivalent of us humans naming everything related to humans Like intestine highway
7:45 here's the reason for the 'small air scoop'. Sitting just underneath is a vintage fuel injection system instead of a traditional carburetor, likely that particular set up wasn't running a paper air cleaner; it had only wire mesh screen on top of the fuel injection box. This type of fuel injection was common on supercharged boats as well. Very period-correct!
its actually suposed to be a blower, but it actually wasn't functional just a movie prop
One of my favorite bits of cars lore is that in Cars 2 (undeniably the best of all the Cars movies), is the presence of Sarge and all his WWII military buddies means that there was a WWII, presumably for the same reasons as our world, meaning that canonically there is a certain young car who was turned away from his favorite Austrian art school as a lad...
You know.. I love cars irl but I've never seen any of the Cars movies yet.
👀
I was just about to make a point about Cars WWII and a car Hilter. Beat me too it.
@@ROT4RYfc3s no cap but the first movie was a childhood staple for me and it still holds up as an entertaining movie. Don't worry about the other cars movies but do yourself a favor and watch the first one. It's good fun
Don't forget them going through TSA checkpoint which suggests there was a Cars 9/11
I can explain the Phase 4 head - Where the US had "Stage 1/2/3" mods, Australians tended to use "Phase" instead, because some Australian car companies tended to use "Phase" in their performance marketing and naming, like the famous Ford Falcon GTHO Phase 3 and Phase 4(Of which, only four were built, and only one was sold production). A Phase 4 Head, in that era of Australian parlance, would be a heavily modded, practically bespoke part built purely for performance with no compromises. Like, the kind of shit you'd put on something built from the ground up for racing, like a V8 Supercar.
Also called go fast bits 😁
Actually in reference to the gtho phase was the generation. This would imply that it had xa gtho (phase 4) heads which were not twin overhead cam. The engine in this was a 351 clevo and for the first movie the blower was fake. The second movie the blower was functional and that is a Scott mechanical injection system that was used. You would also not use nitro as a fuel for a street/pursuit car. The description given while some parts are correct others are inaccurate like Megan fox describing the Transformers engine
Stage 1/2/3/etc. comes from video games though. Yes aftermarket companies use these terms now, but that terminology didn’t exist prior to games like Need for Speed and definitely wouldn’t have been used When Mad Max came out. I’m pretty sure donut has a video on it.
Agree. I had a 67 beetle I had rebuilt. I had to figure out if I wanted stage 1,2, or 3 cams. If I remember correctly same with jet kits for the carbs, with the headers and exhaust.
@@cobo10201 I have UK tuning books from the 60s that talk about stage 1/2/3
The phase 4 is the last falcon gtho made which played a hand in the Australian muscle car scare which killed big Australian muscle cars, so essentially it's using the biggest fastest falcon parts for the time.
My favorite Carspiracy is that it's set in the future where the human race was potentially going extinct, so they found a way to put their subconscious into machines. That explains the sidewalks. Also don't forget there are sentient planes, boats, and other various vehicles.
But those structures in the real world are only 100 or so years old. Just rebuild the things designed for cars.
Cars do have "animals" tho, cows are tractors and there is also a bull in the form of a combine harvester, also another I always wondered about is how new cars are born, and how old ones die
Crabs also exist in the form of mini excavators, and their claws are replaced by excavator arms
Bugs are old vw beetles
WHat is the age of consent in the cars worlds? Is it creepy if a 69 ford pickup mounts a 2021 civic?
@@Six_Gorillion this is one of those questions I never wouldve asked myself but rlly want an answer for
The cars in the car universe are made at factories, one of those factories can be seen in a picture behind Doc at the scene in the courthouse in Cars 1. The cars also never say stuff like "thank you god", they say things like "thank the manufacturer" or "holy manufacturer".
Anyone notice in the first movie (transformers) those “throttle bodies” seemed to look more like painted side draft Webber carburettors?
Thank you.... Weber DCOE
Looks like side draft carbs to me too but not fuel injection for sure
fuck yeah. gotta love the triple side draft Webers on an inline six edit: to clarify this is not in reference to the camaros engine in transformers and I can understand the confusion.
Those are Webbers or Delortos side draft carbs. So Megan knows cars better that the Donut crew and their resident mechanic.🤣🤣🤣
Yeah I'm 95% sure those are 4 Weber DCOEs. Even cooler than fuel injection lmao
2 decades later and I'm still trying to figure out how a shot of nitrous made threaded fasteners come out like projectiles.
Those fastners were just another victim of bad writing.
on the passenger seat floorboard as well lmao
And the diamond plate aluminium sparked like crazy!

Science bro and the power of family 🤣
I love the super chill dog in this video. Pup is so comfortable hearing car jargon that the doggo just says "Nap time".
This channel in my opinion is the KING of Car KZhead. Idek how to drive but I'm balls deep in automotive youtube for some reason and these guys have it all: from high effort high production value content to just entertaining react content, the full spectrum is here.
VERY IMPORTANT FOR MAD MAX: Phase IV was part of the concept of the Baturst GTHO project, which started with the Ford Falcon XW, (Phase I-II) then went into the XY Phase III, which took a 5.8L Ford Cleveland 351 V8 and race built it to over 350 HP. The XA Ford Falcon GTHO Phase IV project, which saw the car top speeds said to be at 160MPH, was SCRAPPED by the government after only 4 official cars were made (3 racing 1 private). However, because these cars were for Homologation, over 300 racing engines and gear boxes and so on were made for public consumption. Ford was stuck with these parts and "SNUCK" them out the back door to car dealers and private racers. The Ford Falcon XB GT that Max had (In story), was ordered with these racing built Phase IV heads, and mostly likely engine and was said to likely be at 400HP without the blower (Which yes I know is fake).
I bleed red through and through yet even I picked this up, those old homologation falcons are one of the best things to come out of Australia they absolutely rip. Sad to think what could have been if it weren't for the supercar scare.
@@kyangrove-jones7096 Amen to that. I need to make a video about the Ford Falcon GTHO project.
Thank you, great comment. I have an XB 351.
@@kyangrove-jones7096 I understand the Holden vs Ford debate but as you said the appreciation for what those two car companies produced is amazing. One of my favourite motors of all time is the 202. Rebuilding one at the moment and seeing what I can throw at it to get all the hrsprs. Mo Powah Baby.
I don’t particularly expect an American based channel to know what a Phase 1 or Phase 4 GT HO Falcon is, though the Phase 3 GT HO was the fastest 4 door sedan in the world when it was released, back when Australia did world beating shit.
2:01 Those are carburetors though, they're weber DCO with a crossram intake
Thank you I was gonna point that out but you beat me to it.
It looks like a Weber carbs but it's Edelbrock EFI actually
@@jannemec4567 I just started looking this up, and it's crazy how similar side-draft EFI looks to individual carbs - so it's easy to understand the confusion - however ... Zach was wrong to assume that carbs only exist as the things that sit on top. Before looking it up, I knew that old school race cars had speed stacks and individual carbs, so it seems like he should've known that.
But she said it was a double pumper. It is not a double pumper carburetor.
100% carburetors
In the cars movies, the cars are an abstract for humans. It is pretty messed up that the one cars movie about the secret agents essentially shows one agent's corpse (the crushed up car at the beginning) and another agent being tortured and executed. And there is probably more that I can't remember. All of this in a kids movie. Bruce Campbell is pretty dope too
Bambi is a kid's movie, Bambi's mother died, there was a forest fire The Lion King is a kid's movie, it shows fratricide i guess if there's a bit of a disconnect between humans and what's portrayed it's considered safer
I'm surprised I haven't seen a comment about a floppy drive holding all that animation and data 😂😂😂. It's 1.44Mb if I recall correctly!
Here’s something weird about the cars franchise Cars 1: heartfelt story of a previously obnoxious race car who falls in love with a Porsche (who wouldn’t) and sacrifices winning the final race to help Dinoco after a really bad crash. Cars 3 revolves around an obnoxious electric car who sees McQueen as something of the past and that his days of being the worlds number 1 are over. The plots for Cars 1 and 3 are your normal, run of the mill animated movie. With a climax etc etc. Now, Cars 2: long story short, Proffesser Zündaap (one villain of the story) uses “cameras” which were actually laser rays, to blow the engine (heart/brain) of the car on live television broadcasted to the whole world. One more thing is that the car that Professor Zundaap is based off is a Zundaap Janus produced in Germany just after world war 2. The pope is also present in the film meaning that religion and even war is in the Cars universe.
Wonder if there’s coke and hookers in the Cars universe. Guess we need to follow the Porsche….
Donut media has been a core part to why im a car guy today, the up to speed videos helped me learn so much about cars, so thanks for making car videos for all these years
Same man same they make me love cars and they were one of the reasons why i fell in love with cars
When they are right, but when they are wrong they don’t even correct their mistakes.
@@miralee3419 dount really made it fun to learn about cars, I still remember binging up to speed videos
Except they got the first one wrong, 3:05 those are side draft carburetors, not fuel injectors. Sometimes the guys aren’t a 100% correct
Bruh that dog looks so peaceful and happy. He is precious.
The scoop on the interceptor from Mad Max is a Scott super slot designed specifically for the Hilborn two pot mechanical injection on the supercharger.
Cars takes place sometime in the future on the Pixar timeline. If I remember correctly, it's thought that machines took over Earth after the humans were sent to outer space by a company called Buy n Large due to heavy pollution (Wall-E). That's why, especially in Cars 2, there is a lot of architecture that was very clearly built for humans, by humans. Also, Zach is not a true car guy until he has seen Cars.

That would only explain it if the entire Cars race existed and died out in the time the humans were gone because they returned later. Considering the length of time humans spent in space, it could be plausible.
That theory is not canonical
@@Nexuhss maybe not, but it explains a lot since the idea that Pixar does have a timeline
Adults trying to chain together children's movies in some stupid way has to be my favorite form of autism.
You guys must absolutely put up a camera and film Zach when he sees Cars for the first time. It's a brilliant movie. Don't overthink it.
The first engine from transformers has 4 double Weber or delorto carburettors. So Meagan did really knew something about it… 😉

Exactly! Had to rewind a couple of times - but she is right and the sofa guys are oblivious. 😂

Has anyone noticed that in the carsverse, when the "flies" are crawling on dirty windows, they leave little tire tracks?
Thats cool asf
the first car you talked about is definitely carbureted, looks like a quad weber DCOEs or something similar. you can see the fuel line going to each carb, the only thing I would question about this setup, is how is the linkage connected....
@@ramp7857 it is, yes
Yep. Bet it sounds like heaven
Was about to say the same thing!
Reminded me of a Jaguar racing car, I watched the race in Watkins Glen... It had a v-12 with 12 single barrel carbs.
Thank god, i literally wanted to rip my hair out. @donutmedia COME ON MAN
for the Mad Max one, the mention of phase 4 heads is in reference to the XA Falcon (Phase IV) GT-HO. The phase I - IV GT-HO's were the top of the top racing spec falcons which are most notable for being raced at Bathurst.
It wasn't running a "Twin Overhead Cam either".
I actually thought the original The Fast and The Furious was the best movie of the series specifically because they either intentionally didn’t take it too seriously and made it pretty silly, or because it was just stupid. Either way, it was silly and fun to watch. I remember actually laughing out loud when the floorboard of the Dodge Neon-powered Eclipse fell out because of too much NAWZZZ. The later ones, they tried to take themselves too seriously and they just got worse and worse and worse. I am a real (well, former) mechanic too and when you’re watching a car movie, you pretty much have to forget everything you’ve ever known about cars. I find that I have to do that when I talk to a significant number of car people too.
For the Cars movie, I've always wondered how the cars were 'born'. Were they made in a factory and shipped to parents like storks and babies, or would it be something even weirder?
they lay eggs.
in cars 2 they mentioned car parts and engines being made by factory

Just some pointers for the mad Max scene, the weirdest comment was the twin overhead cam comment when knowingly the ford xb falcon came out with a push rod v8 engine. Aswell as that the comment about the phase 4 heads refectory the Australian phase 4 falcon that came out. And the scoop was traditionally a hilborne injection scoop off a dragster.
Tuning the fuel map is spot on. Data logging is used to tune every millisecond your injectors fire(and fix nasty holes). A delay box can be used for many different things. It's used to time the nitrous with the rpm where I believe it'll give me the performance I'm looking for without me physically having to activate it. Also your delay controllers can shoot the nitrous at different increments for things like spooling the turbo up at lower rpm's to get rid of the turbo lag and then shoot again at the other end to give you the best power to run the time your trying to achieve. Shoot the nitrous at the wrong time, and you can kiss your engine bye or def hurt your chances of running a consistent time. Nitrous isn't very forgiving for a non-built engine but for a built engine you have a lot of different scenarios to play with. A nasty hole means your prob running lean or rich and need to adjust the fuel. Some people have full control when the fuel solenoid and nitrous solenoid open so they can actually fill the gap by the nitrous controller. But most people just fill the nasty hole by either adding or subtracting injector pulse rate. Some nitrous systems are "dry" systems which have basically no control of fuel but "wet" systems have fuel added along with the nitrous to increase the amount of power without running a lean condition. I have 2 injectors per cylinder and use one of them primarily to tune. If I dont get the results I'm looking for, I mess with the nitrous timing. And in Transformers, I really wasn't paying much attention to the car, so it didn't bother me when she said carb and not injection, but I think that was the point. Of course, once I found out how she is in person, I got turned off.
What Jesse said about the fuel injectors and the hole in the fuel map is 100% correct. He mentioned increasing the injector pulls by a millisecond but that's usually adjusted by percentage called pulse width modulation or pwm. Then he implies once he adjusts that he can tune the NOS timer. Also, Matthew McConaughey didn't say Edelbrock headers. He said Edelbrock intake.
Yeah that's the fix to increase pressure and have even more fuel spray out everywhere and add nos and a car fire is waiting to happen but the excess fuel wasted don't worry about fixing the hole
Let me guess have you changed fuel injector bc many things within that so from fuel injector have a screen at the top like a filter or over sized injectors that spray more pressure and nos injection is separate injection into the intake manifold unless a fogger is in air induction but fuel injector has many options
@@boknow5506 They're talking about adjusting the FUEL MAP, not a literal hole. You know, the thing programmed into the ECU that controls the timing and duration of the fuel injector pulses.
Actually if you guys looked closer at the scene when Meagan fox said carburettor, they are actually carburettors, side draughts, look at how there no fuel rail and a bridge fuel line from left to right
But it's not a double pumper
I agree it does have carburetors
Webers sidedraught. Used most on straight motors.
Happy that some one else notised too
I was searching for this comment thank you. Those are not itbs
Never thought about the Cars bit like that 😂😂 especially the junkyard part
And also for the 200MPH part they pretty much turned the 370 to an R35 GTR 😂
Zach you must see Cars. Wife and I put it on as my daughter's first movie and her two year old self wondered around the house playing mostly as my wife and I really got into it and probably had a bit of a teary eye. Daughter and son eventually saw it and the rest is history. Had three different cars named after characters in the proceeding years.
For Cars video: If you sometimes feel useless just remember In some cars movies there are buses and taxis.
Lmao no shit Like tits on a bull!
I hate it when my check engine light comes on so my floor pan shoots bolts at me and my passenger losses their feet doing a bad Flintstone impression
I know nothing about cars but this channel is still fun to watch
I have a dog named mater after the cats character. He’s a 7 year old pitbull/boxer mix, and he’s brindle do his coloring looks brown and rusty, and his personality matches Mater really well. I’d love to see you guys make more cars content, I’d be happy to watch it
I love that you guys are chilling on the couch with a puppy while y'all made this video. Perfect.
That doxy is so cute! I have 2 for a reason
I'd just like to point out that while the Bumblebee engine isn't a double pump high-rise carburetor, it is actually a weber idf or weber dcoe. Meaning it contains 4x dual throat carburetors C:
Yes Donut media sorry, but you have go to bake bread again, cars were not your thing... Thats definetly Carbureted...

The First one are Carbs not ITB's Side draft Carbs DCOE style , maybe these are from Weber or Dellortho or Mikuni or Solex. These are typical Carbs that are used here in Europe Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Yup....i laught when they say itb.....i still use this twin carb on my 4 AGE and 4g15 engine....i love the sound

Yes, and bolted to a crossflow manifold. Not all carbs are on "top"!
WRONG
every datsun guy with a side draft weber setup on their L28 had to be screaming at James Zoomer mis-infomation...
Exactly. I thought this dude was suppose to be a "mechanic" but has never seen a weber?? Lol
glad someone else spotted this! 👍
the dog and Jobes nos plushie are amazing
just for clarification, there was a phase 4 gtho that was never sold to the commercial market. it was only raced in australia. its in between the xy gtho and the xa gt. somewhere around 1970-71. it wasnt made for production because it was considered too fast. so unless they found some super rare heads in an apocolypse, he probably means 4v heads. meaning it has 4 valves per cylinder.
For the cars movie: in the scene where sally and lightning are racing, lightning gets sprayed with some sort of brown slush, however there was no mud pile in front of them. Seeing as he was racing behind sally, we can only come to the conclusion that he got a mouthful of Sally’s literal shit
I mean sally's shit ? 😳😩🤤
Just a usual Porsche engine failure. She never got her oil changed and it busted past the piston rings from all the chatter-marks in the cylinders. Or she sharted.
@@shred1894 that's the car equivalent of IBS
Well Porsche is German.
Thing is, those intakes on that LS are either side draught carburettors or Jenvey fuel injection throttle bodies specifically designed to look like side-draught carburettors. So it's either carburetted, or supposed to look carburetted.
They look like Webers
Yaa that was my impression also..
Beat me to it. Swing and a miss, donut
They look like 40 Weber’s
They look like Weber dcoe's to me... The squareish box sitting on top/center of the throttle bores is the float bowl....
I love how they just passed right by the push/pull to turn the blower on and off while driving in Mad Max
absurd car jargon is my favorite, i specifically remember yelling things at the screen in too fast too furious about how skylines dont do that
The Miata’s flashing their lights at lighting was the golden moment let’s be real
3:00 those are in fact carbureters. Thats just a cross ram intake with quad Weber side draft carb's
Zach has the prettiest smile. Hard to not smile when he does lol
Gone in 60 seconds had me dying XD bro the camera close ups on there faces lmao
Doc's advice over the radio in the final race: "Drive it in deep and hope it sticks". It's a great line from a real life team manager but Lightning IS "it". He's driving himself in and hoping he sticks.
''It" could also be the move itself...
Whoa
12:22 80k car, 3.5 sec 0 to 60 and 193 mph top speed. Seems like someone in the production team forgot to write “R35 GT-R” after “Nissan” on the memo, and just get the “fastest looking” car from the nearest Nissan dealership LOL.
They definitely didn't get that car from a dealership. That low budget disaster got a loaner from someone in production. "Who has a decent sports car we can use to film a few scenes?" Lol
That was my best guess after turning over the numbers in my head for ten seconds. Love it when the comments confirm my hunch. That dealership scenario is hilarious. Either a production ignoramus picked the “fastest looking” Nissan on the lot like you said, or a new GT-R wasn’t available locally and the executive they called couldn’t pass up a ~$45k infusion into the “prop budget”.
They probably just took a car on a long test drive hahaha
My favorite car line is in Gone in 60 and it is " come on start...come on start." I have had that conversation with my car. Lol
As many times as I’ve watched all the cars movies with my son(and it’s been more than I want to admit😅) the bit about Mater never crossed my mind! Lmao! He’s like the undertaker
Phase 4 is in relation to Australia's GTHOS, the 71 XY GTHO Phase III was the best car aus ever made but it was meant to be followed by a Phase IV, they had made the motors but the GTHO Phase 4 only had 4 ever built, rumour is they released the motor though in some 'normal' cars also, it was a cleveland so it MAY have been a reference to the Australian closed chamber Cleveland 4v heads
You sound like the kind of guy , like me that thinks running on empty is one of the best car movies ever.

I really liked Jesse in f&f, he seems to actually know about cars and have his own input on his script..
it’s wild the ones who were the most into cars and car culture lasted the shortest times in the series, it shows too sadly
He's that good he never needed front calipers stopping was all in the mind
@@kpenis17 quite true. Jordana and Michelle didn’t even have a drivers license when they filmed the first movie and evidence shows they are not remotely into cars even to this day. Neither one of them would even know where the dipstick is on a car. The only real car person in the series was Paul. He actually had a hand in picking the cars and learned about them as the series went on. The series inspired him to get into cars. I doubt that Paul could do anything beyond basic maintenance but at least he’d know what he was looking at and talking about. Vin diesel just plays the character whenever he’s needed. He has some cool cars but for the most part has no real clue about them. I doubt he could change a spark plug. Chad (Jessie) is probably at Vin’s level of car guy in real life.
@@CamaroAmx well to be fair , I don't think it's that easy to find good actors who are actually really into cars...
@@die4race quiet true. However in some cases an actor will continue on with things they learned for a role or will get into things that the role encompassed. Paul is a good example of an actor having a minor interest in cars, doing a car movie and cars becoming a hobby for him. Geena Davis is anther example. She learned how to shoot bow and arrow for a film and it became a hobby for her and she has became very good at it.
I noticed you put a eldelbrock carburetor for the picture of the 750 double pump holley
I'd love to see you talk about mechanics in tv shows and movies and how realistic they are
For "Cars" vid: This is mainly in the "Planes" movie, but when somebody gets a broken part, or needs a better part, isn't that like getting a prosthetic with special abilities? Like in the "Planes" movie, the main character Dusty gets new and better wings. That is basically him getting stronger prosthetic arms.
To expand on that, what about Top Fuel dragsters that need to be pretty much totally rebuilt after every couple runs? What a tortured existence that must be
It’s basically the world 20 years after Stephen King’s “Trucks”.
Y'all should do WAY more videos like this!!! There is so much content to comment on. Also, I'd love to see James go over the top dramatic when responding to these quotes.
Nick cage should have said, “I am going to steal the Declaration of Independence.”
New to this channel (the Gambella video was awesome btw). Don't know if you did the Cars video yet, but I just wanted to add that Pixar made concept drawings of Lightning McQueen & Mater being "dissected", to show that they do, in fact, have internal organs. Somehow, the cars in the Cars universe are living beings that have car body shells, like turtles with tires... I guess. I still have no idea how that's supposed to work
zach's always been my favorite host. now i know why, has a dachshund and is an actual mechanic?
The reason as to why Jesse goes from talking about fueling to nitrous timing randomly is in the second scene assessed in this video. Jesse claims he has attention deficit disorder so it's understandable why his "tuner brain" jumps from one facet to another. The character was just well portrayed by the actor.
That just seems like an excuse for lazy writing
You're not wrong about the scene, but Jesse doesn't have ADD. Watch everything he does. The guy is autistic. Just watch it again and ignore the ADD part.
JESSE WE NEED TO MAKE SOME MORE MÈTHË
@@jj02mc27 I would rather guess it's just bad video editing in this case. Actually they had an technical advisor, forgot his name (also the owner of the Supra and other cars), for this tech stuff in the movie. But often decided to ignore his advise
@@MrNice-zm9qk his name is craig liberman , the man who owned the skyline , supra , maxima , e.g.
I would love to see this turn into a series! It would probably easily become one of my favorites, and there's SO MANY movies you could get quotes from, both good and bad.
Or just BAD CAR SOUND EFFECTS!!! like a 68 4sp mustang that will shift 52x in a 32sec on screen get away ??? Things like this that we ALL hear an count . Dont lie you know you do im not the only guy ... I hope im not at least
Don't forget that the Mad Max car could somehow turn the supercharger on & off magically 😄 I do love the upside down headers on the OG Bumblebee Camaro with the individual throttle bodies though
The one max had could be turned on and off. Was a rare model. Not particularly good though.
I think bumble bee might actually be carbureted. there are fuel lines connected to what looks like 4 carburetors on top of those stacks. there are no fuel rails or visible cables from the injectors and the 4 things that sit on top look like they could be small carburetors. they have a black polymer body which is common in performance carburation because it doesn't transfer heat and can keep temps down in the float bowls making the gasoline a little cooler. they are also sitting level on top which wouldn't make sense in a fuel injection system if they were say injectors or little computers for the logic on the system, because all of that stuff would either be more compact or able to sit away from the manifold instead of on top of it and they wouldn't have to sit level on top of the motor either.
Mad Max: Phase 4 heads would be referring the Phase 4 GTHO Falcon. Since that's an XB Falcon more than likely would be running a 351 Cleveland. The Phase 4 was a stillborn halo edition of the previous model XA Falcon which used the same 351 Cleveland block but had homologated heads for racing at Bathurst.
The lines from “Dazed and Confused” have been the most accurate car talk I’ve seen in any movie. Other than “Two Lane Blacktop”. Cool video idea!
TLB was a great car movie. Same with Grand Prix. It's amazing that modern "car" movies don't hire mechanics to preview the script for authenticity. Hell, they could give some Wyotech grad a pizza and an end credit to improve the script but can't even be bothered to do even that little bit. That's why they almost all suck
It's a bummer they pluralize "edelbrock intakes" in the dialog, since there's only the one intake manifold. Generally a good car movie, though.
“She ain’t breathin’ right, maybe it’s the jets.” 😂 TLB and American Graffiti are the entire reason I want a ‘55 someday.
@@ChevelleMike71 oh man I’ve been eye balling 55 gasser builds lately. They just look so damn cool.
2 Lane Blacktop, when Warren Oates says his GTO has a "454 Cobra Jet"...Brutal for a great car movie. Fast Company is an amazing drag racing movie and must be written by gearheads because the lingo is dead on.
Mater is like the grim reaper in a way. He tows his victims to the junk yard
I wish you watched enough of Mad Max to see the on/off switch for the supercharger being used. That has been the cause of many school yard arguments in Australia :)
I literally watch Cars every day because it’s my two year old’s favorite movie. I have a whole lot of thoughts. - at the race track in the opening scene, the women’s bathroom has a long line and the men’s is short. So they’ve obviously established that there’s at least two genders, but also their ability to relieve themselves quickly is impacted by this. - because cars don’t have hands, forklifts are everywhere in this world. Are they a lower class to cars? They’re always serving the cars’ needs while the cars do basically nothing, do they enjoy working and being a servant to the cars? This is extra complicated since tractors are basically considered livestock in the movie with no cognitive ability. So there’s obviously some degree of established class system - lightning McQueen goes into Doc Hudson’s garage and discovers he has three piston cups. What’s in those cups? Wrenches. HOW CAN THEY USE WRENCHES WITHOUT FINGERS AND THUMBS!?!? - in Cars 2, the villains are lemons. Who intentionally makes sentient creatures lemons? Also, it’s been established parts, motors, and even body panels can be swapped. So why is no one doing anything to help them? It’s like being able to give a paralyzed person a new set of legs, but making a conscious decision not to - they show small cars as children. Does that mean their body, frames, and engines grow over time? How does that work with the aforementioned ability to swap parts and such? - Older cars are slower, while newer carscars trend to get better and better. So either they’re evolving very quickly or they’re manufactured. I’m leaning towards them being manufactured. if that’s the case why are they manufactured so inefficiently? Cars were built to carry people. There are no people. If they’re only purpose is to drive themselves places, why are they still shaped to carry people, which obviously slowed them down I have many more thoughts on the matter and am open to being a consultant for you guys. Again, every day for the last 6 months I’ve watched at least one of the Cars movies, many days I’ve watched it several times.
1. The forklifts uses wrenches, in Planes 2 a forklift fixes Dusty with a wrench if i remember correctly. 2. Engines can not be swapped, if they could then McQueen wouldve swapped his engine in Cars 3. In Cars 2 Miles Axelrod never converted himself to an electric car while claiming he did, he kept the original engine. 3. Cars are manufcaturered, behind Doc at the scene in the courthouse in Cars 1 you can see a picture behind him of a factory, thats where they come from. The cars in the movies also never say stuff like "thank god", they say "thank the manufacturer".
@@TheGamingNorwegian the fact that ppl believed that he had swapped his engine implies not only that it's possible to swap your engine but also to swap pretty much everything as a swap from gas to electric is much more than just an engine swap
Maybe in the area where their used to be a cockpit there is their organic parts (like for example, their eyes probably extend farther back than just the windshield) and it's probably not that easy to just change the entire shape since that would also require changing the parts inside. I remember I heard somewhere that one of the writers had confirmed that inside the cockpit area is where their brain and stuff was which is why they never open their doors. Also my question is that why would it take longer for the girls to use the bathroom than the boys? Based on the scene in Cars 2 where Mater uses the bathroom they just drive onto the toilet and that's it, so what would take the girls longer than the boys? Also another question, what do the cars use their trunks for? In the entirety of the movie I never saw a single car open their trunk. And there's no way that it's something like with the organic parts bc then where would pickup trucks have them
What ?
Cars: Montgomery (Lightning) McQueen was born in 1977, meaning that he was 29 by the time "Cars" released in 2006 (which is in itself a little odd considering he's supposed to be a rookie in the cup series; however, there are plenty of drivers who enter at older ages in real-life, so it's not that crazy). Sally, Lightning's love interest, is a 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera, making her 4 at the time of the films release. Summary: Lightning is entering his rookie year at an odd age...and also happens to be a pedophile (He is 29 in a relationship with a 4 year old).
well the cars universe operate in a different universe
Also pretty impressive for a 4 year old to have a law degree
Seriously get a hobby
@@chrisvaccaro9062 😆😆 bro
How am I only finding out his name is Montgomery?
Ther Mad Max bit with stage 4 heads - this refers to the Phase 4 Ford Falcon in Australia that was killed off in the early 70's. It was essentially a Cleveland 351 with 4v heads and high comp I believe. If you want to check out some cool Aussie motoriing history check out what you can about the phase 4 GT Falcon. There's only about 2 or 3 of them left and they're currently worth millions.
And it was not a "Twin Overhead Cam". Just your basic single central pushrod style cam.
Regarding that air scoop on the Mad Max intercepter, it was just a stock XB Falcon with a dummied on supercharger. Cool as piss scene though.
One weird detail is in cars 2, where at the end of the movie, when lightning and matter are driving through London, one of the villains is launched into a pub, in which we see beer mugs with handles. Human handles, which means they have no way of actually holding them
My Dad and I met and became friends with the guy that designed the fuel injection that happened to be used on the mad max car. It's legit. He even developed and had my dad test a carburetor that ran on pump gas on the primaries and ran methanol injected secondaries. Mel Scott was super smart and knew his stuff. The injection used on the mad max car was called Scott Injection
You can do an entire episode on greatest "Cars" movie lines: "He won three Piston Cups" "He did what in his cups!!?!?"
One of the truck stop billboards in the Cars movie has a "convertible waitresses" ad. Topless. 🤣

12:25 this was supposed to be a GTR but I’m guessing the rental company couldn’t get it there in time so they used a 350-370 in its place. But yeah he listed the GTR specs.
The hole in the fuel map thing would only make sense if he was running a wet shot at a certain rpm, but his efi was cutting low b4 that, or in anticipation for it. A wierd thing to happen but could on a custom setup. I think. Tell me if I am wrong.
Mad Max phase 4 heads … in Australia we had the 1971 Ford XY GTHO phase 3, at the time the worlds fastest production four door sedan. We were next to get the 1973 XA GTHO phase four, but it never was, only three prototypes and one production car made it before it was killed off by the media claiming 170mph Supercars. These are the heads they are referring to, which is a big port, closed chamber, screw in studs Cleveland head
The reaction during the Gone in 60 Seconds 'Cuda scene is priceless! One of the cringiest moments ever in a car movie.

Good stuff DM, keep it up. Looks like you're catching some heat for misreading the Bumblebee engine in here. I wouldn't have known either way, but what I do know is: 1) Even with clear view of some components, that wasn't an angle that lends itself to %100 certainty. 2) In the car world there's always going to be someone ready to outnerd/outgearhead you, even if you (or they) are wrong. 3) It's a movie clip, not a customer. It's not like he's filling out billing paperwork on an engine after seeing the hood open from across the shop. 4) Most importantly, if it's custom built and you're not the one that built it, you know less than you think you do. I've gone to plenty of car shows and watched plenty of self-proclaimed experts make themselves look ridiculous by making assumptions based on other components just to realize that 'custom' means _anything goes_ and much of what you thought you knew no longer applies. If you made a mistake here Donut, have a slice of oopsie pie and call it a day. For those who pointed out that those are Webers, here's your smart cookie. Unless of course a better look at the hollywood engine would show that it's actually a different custom setup that looks a lot like everything you're familiar with but actually isn't, but nobody who custom builds cars, or engines, or has a film to shoot would ever make anything deceiving on purpose, right?...
That Mater thing at the end really threw me for a loop there He's like a serial killer
They picked the *tamest* part of 200mph imo. It's really distracting when they call the main character's FC RX-7 "the MX-5" and midway through the film, it magically turns into an S14.
