3. the diff cover said LSD…..lol

4. Nice place..you're great! Love the flag. 🙂

5. @gigiwawa1 I love you too, I mean that. Comments like this make me keep going onto the other 200 comments. Seriously, thanks for the comment.

6. Eric,,,i love you,,,as brother and you really so real,humble,downtoearth,,,you dont know how much you endours,encourge me to became automotive techician,,,after long lost and waste time for stupid thing. AND I WISH YOU LIVE AROUD BOSTON I WOULD WORK WITH U ..thank SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH
   GOD BLESS YOU

7. @FITVANITY11 You're most welcome and good luck.

8. @FITVANITY11 Actually check your owners manual for information on that as may engines require an EXTENDED first oil change due to the additives in the oil that help with break in. The owners manual is the law for your particular vehicle and that's what I would go by.

9. @falloutforever88 Those were cool little cars, too bad most of them rusted away to nothing, they still ran great they just fell apart.

10. @dendorssers I'm not worried about the computer as I got it used off of ebay and it didn't set me back all that much and I have spare parts for it if I need, in addition I don't plan to have it out while I'm using the grinder. I actually have a storage space next to the shop that I'm using now so there is no need to build any walls, my new landlord turned out to be pretty cool actually. Thanks for your comment.

11. i used to have an 86 corolla, i miss it so

12. some of my favorite engines are actually vintage aircraft engines. i actually had the pleasure of doing spark plugs on a pratt and whitney R 1830. i love the rolls royce merlin v12 as well. lots of power and cool sounds. as far as car engines, i gotta admit im a chevy man. 350 v8 i love the 350 and it can be built to produce great power for fairly cheap. they are simple and easy to find one

    congrads on your new shop looks great

13. Yeah, that 1986 Carolla (or hachi roku as it's known as in the drifting world) was apparently bought, driven home, and never touched again. I think it's in Australia or something like that.

14. @EricTheCarGuy Yeah i can tell it's high but IMHO the benefits are great when having easy access to everything you need from above. Plus there's not a lot of cables and hoses on the floor that needs moving around all the time.
    Anyways, can't wait for the updates. I am excited to see how things will work out for ya.

15. @rpruneau68 Great suggestion, for now since I don't have a lift I'll be using my roll carts to move stuff around. Thanks for your comment.

16. @RealCadde The celling is a bit high for that honestly, you would have to run just as much cable and hose just to run stuff from there and honestly I don't think it would be as efficient. I'll be posting a shop video on ETCG1 this week to show how I managed the layout.

17. Hey Eric great shop w/ lots of potential… I work in a shop that has (2) bay doors like yours. There is a lift on one side & open work area on the other. I have a work table set-up between the two areas w/ my tool boxes located at the end of the table. Seemed weird at first not having tool box positioned against a wall, but I can tell you it saves me a lot of time & wasted miles by having tool box located central to work areas… Good luck

18. May i suggest getting everything you use frequently that isn't easily maintained in one spot (Shop air, cables, light etc) hooked up onto the ceiling where it can move all over the shop. Or make several points where these things can be hooked up to coming down from the ceiling. And yes, i do agree with having the lift in the center with one full car length on either side.

    Also, is it possible to have a crane in the ceiling to lift stuff with? Like the body of a car? That would be sweet!

19. AE 86 Corolla 🙂 Bad ass lil car!

20. @KaldekBoch Yea it kinda was but it was home for a long time and it served me quite well. Thanks for the comment.

21. Man this workshop is waaaaaay better than the old one. Your old place was depressing!

22. @shaun4282 Thank you Lansing MI!

23. @JTheGuitarPlayer I'll call it the FATR hows that?

24. @Mecal00 Thank you, a lot of hard work went into both.

25. Eric, The new place looks great! I wish you nothing but sucess! Cheers from Lansing, MI!

26. congrats again eric

27. The '86 Toyota kinda reminded me of the '85 Camaro they found in that trailer…

    And you still get that random 2 dislikes on your videos..haha. Stay dirty.

28. @R350zz33 naw sounds more like a v8.

29. I heard that big cam video and recognized it. Congrads on the new shop looking forwars to the new vids Eric.

30. livestream maby?

31. Oooooo a Levin

32. Haha im pretty sure I know exactly where that's at!

33. @EricTheCarGuy haha just kidding man lol

34. really great to see your new place. huge!
    Oh, and the new website looks excellent!

35. @EricTheCarGuy Ya its a big shop, but you'll find out soon enough its not big enough, they never are. Good luck with your new venture.

36. great to see u are settling in ok,great vid,and all the best with your new shop,i am so jealous,id love a place like it!

37. @EricTheCarGuy It shows man, just keep trying. You're looking good haha.

38. Well there isn't any lights on it's weird but my family members think it's the alternator but I'm not sure. On escapes the alt. Is on the very bottom of the engine where it can get wet from deep water

39. @Matthew1762 Hahahaha

40. @jamisgood21 Good ear, that's exactly what it was.

41. @DENGkevon That can kill an engine in short order I've seen it many times and if it doesn't kill it right away it might a little down the road if a connecting rod got bent. The only thing you can do is remove the plugs and get as much water out as you can and see if it runs, if not I would recommend getting a new engine rather than trying to fix your old one. Good luck.

42. @EricTheCarGuy I'll send you the Google Maps link on your Facebook account.. Don't really want to post it here without your permission.

43. @Kuwaiti27 I'm with you on that, to solve that issue I use a tool cart and have for years, I still have to head back to the box once in a while but not that often. Thanks for the comment.

44. @markkjay Thanks so much for that, I'm really enjoying the interaction with people there, so many great ETCG fans.
