Showing Mustang LPEpower V8 drivetrain

[911enemy]

now you need to train rat or something like that to drive this car ;D

[p38lightning7]

Where is the transmission?

[nicjasno]

@p38lightning7 There is no transmission. Just a one way clutch.

[p38lightning7]

@nicjasno You think you can add one? It appears that if you shortned the driveshaft you might be able to fit at least a three speed gear box in there.

[nicjasno]

@p38lightning7 Maybe, but why? It's not needed.

[p38lightning7]

@nicjasno Well, it'd be more realistic and cool. (not to suggest that the car isn't already cool)

[nicjasno]

@p38lightning7 Well... the LPEpower mustang product is cool, the car in this video is just horrible. But realism is not so esssential here and it hinders fun, because you have no way of shifting that gearbox while the car is driving anyway.

[p38lightning7]

@nicjasno Ahh, but see thats where you could get creative and use some motors in combination with an NXT brick. If you know how to use one, Problem Solved! You can now shift gears.

[nicjasno]

@p38lightning7 And you also add a lot more weight to the car. Why am i then making every effort to save every gramm that i can from the car? :)

[p38lightning7]

@nicjasno Oh yeah that... How about an automatic? That would be just downright impressive!

[DJSI3434]

make an inline 4 please

[XMidnightXToker420X]

they should make so it engages at a certain rpm like low so it dont break and so it can idle without trying to roll!

[DJSI3434]

I Know Its Wrong But Try Making That 4wd That would Be Cool

[POPCORN454545]

hmmm....when this things at a stand...and u mach the throttle it spins the tires right?

[WhiteGangster400]

I could stare at this all day

[ruben4884]

put a automatic transmison in it

[Ic3n0va]

@ruben4884 Automatic gears are made for fags

[DJSI3434]

@Ic3n0va Fuck

[beefbaron]

I especially like the fact that it uses better rear suspension (IRS) than the actual mustang (ancient solid axle)

[WpA09]

what are the green wheels from?

[nicjasno]

@WpA09 They're standard 17hex 1:8 rc car wheels. I just happened to snatch a green pair. There's a lot of designs out there, most are white.

[antonis0035tc]

you should try and put a gearbox in it it will be much better

[ryancivil]

that is so cool!!!

[TheNickboy75]

nice! the engine is strong!

[ArnyTheAwesome]

Those pistons are going up and down quicker than I can blink!

[jeromsavestheworld]

make a video of it driving. [I] got to see it

[nicjasno]

@jeromsavestheworld watch my other videos, there's pleny of videos showing it driving.

[jpk806]

im confused by the differential, can i get a close up view or instrucions of it? thankyou

[nicjasno]

@jpk806 go to my homepage. nicjasno . c o m . Unfortunately youtube doesn't allow to post links here. I have pictures of the diff in peces there. You may need to go to page 2 of the newsfeed to find them.

[stuntrunt3263]

[guthixsecret]

thats the most b e a u t i f u l lego car i ever seen!!!!!

[kingofthebacon]

nice guys

[manoffire11]

There's differential?

[nicjasno]

There is a differential, of course.

[manoffire11]

Normal lego differential?

[nicjasno]

No. Turntable differential.

[TheMike894ftw]

Your amazing.

[Tunerboii2045]

wheres the transmission?

[thomasmfay]

Finally somebody that uses a ladder bar system correctly in legos

[TheLasse94]

nice... what about 4x4....lol... is the wheels lego wheels...

[pentium6xx]

whats the driveshaft made of

[nicjasno]

round 2x2 bricks

[frostmage6985]

a normal axle, but with 2x2 round bricks around it

[hydrolisk1792]

Wow, are you going to upload plans on how to make one??

[Bobpie56]

oooooh....i like looking at the differential in the back there, you dont see too many good ones like that...really nice job on the car and engine btw :D

[POPCORN454545]

thats nice man!!!! now all u need to do is mount a 3 or 4 speed trani and a clutch in that baby and remote contro lit and i will bow down to you lol

[danieledwardgibbs]

i didnt make it  but for driving it he couldnt just change gears /clutch and accelerate while pressing the air compressor on so 4 driving it he keeps it simple but for looke i thinks he has it all put in and anyways its his test car soooo ........maybe its made better?! lol

[reviathon360]

you you try and add a 4 wheel dfrive system

[corotor12345]

hey alex, you might not know it but im kind of a fan of your webpage lol and i ended up here. so i might just ask something i have always wanted to ask: have you ever thought of lubricating the cars? cuz i know you lube the engines a bit from time to time. anyways i also wanted to know if you would be willing to make a dragster with a really light engine that could reach some decent speed. ive always wanted to do so :)

[rocketman468]

why dont you put that thing in your challenger alex?

[LPEpower]

Because the challenger sucks. And it'd be over 6kgs if fitted with all things necessary. The mustang is much better.

[BarbieACook]

hey you gotta do it for the challenger and make a camaro man all three muscle cars running proud v-8s

[Skoda130]

@LPEpower Could you make a video about how the automatic transmission on the other dragster works?

[nicjasno]

@Skoda130 If you look at the menu on the right, there is the video "3 speed automatic gearbox in action" .

[LPEpower]

There is no live axle. That is an independent setup.

[Zblj1987]

My bad its not a live axle :), But its still redesigned. Did you uses 2 strong cardans for each wheel?
