Yep, already watched it.

Nick picked a godawful color for the suspension bits.

Maybe the contrast is deliberate for visibility when stuff is covered in goo?

Maybe Nick is color blind. Or, colour blind.

They used to use white for that.
Easy to see cracks.

I don't know, I thought the grey was a good color. Being neutral and such. Good thing he didn't go for the candy apple pink. Also the grey color may be a hint to the body color?

It’s quite possible.


I think looking at that green and grey mess under it, we should prepare ourselves for an equally bad choice of paint and interior colors.


Just because the man has fab skills, don’t mean he has good taste!

I wouldn't have made it glossy, but like Sid says, we probably ought to prepare for an underwhelming third act...

Seems others have been taking some notes.

For some reason, Matt Farah rubs me the wrong way, and his friend building 500hp Super Coopers gives me the same vibe.

Jealousy, probably, but nonetheless, notafan.

sc_rufctr 02-21-2020 03:28 PM

A agree. Matt is an arrogant arse and he's a blowhard!

I loath people like that.

Loves to hear is own voice and constantly talks over his guests, not letting them speak.

Back to Project Binky...carry on...

That's not a car video. That's 2 chicks talking about makeup.

The only shots of a running engine were the drivebys. smh

Farrah is a bozo who just spews automotive cliches he reads online.
Never seen a single original thought emerge from his useless piehole

pavulon 02-22-2020 08:42 AM

They must have Binky up and running. I'll have to watch. Also if you can get over Matt being Matt...

I guess I like to think about things that are within the realm of reality. While nobody can argue with the craftsmanship of Binky and its creators, it's pure unobtanium.

There's a new Binky episode up!

Spoiler Alert!

(And Hello again!)

Note how the thrust bearings are on bearing number 3... Very cool ;)

dan79brooklyn 03-02-2020 12:02 AM

Great episode. They totally fooled me about not running a turbo. Loved the tie-in with the Aussie dudes (Skid Factory). Nice to see a well documented engine build done to high standards.

sc_rufctr 03-02-2020 12:17 AM

The "additional" head gaskets was a give away ;)

Here's a link to 30 - so you don't have to waste time with that Matt project.:

Break out the show-spanners, it's time for another episode of Project Binky. In colour!

I love what these guys are doing and have watched a bunch of their videos because they are educational and entertaining, but I've lost a little interest. I find I now fastforward through some of the videos and I'm not watching every one. I'd ready for the darn thing to be running and moving under it's own power.
