  • can you guys make an updated version of this video

    i want to know your recommendations with the technology available now in 2012

  • wats the difference between high torque motors and high speed motors?

  • @acfjames put simply, a high torque motor will be able to push a heavier spring, if you go above an M130, you'll probably need a high torque motor. high torque motors also improve trigger response by speeding up the gearbox faster. a high speed motor will increase the rate of fire on your gun, but has lower torque so it wont handle a heavy spring as well.

  • i have a g and g gr16

    the motor is really bad and slow, i have had it over a year and play once a week

    it only shoots around 320 fps

    would a m160 ultra custom high torque motor make the rate of fire and trigger response improve

  • @acfjames If you mean the G&P M160, yes that should do the job very well. I use a King Arms Infinite Torque Up motor myself, there are motors out there with higher torque, but it's very fast for a high torque motor.

  • @Mjarf88 no it was a different make and it doesnt matter now because i have a G&P M120 high speed motor installed

  • systema spring guide and the cylinder head are out of stock

  • I want a lower fps do I only have to change the spring? Because that's what it seems. I have a 6.03mm but I here it increases FPS by gun in just below the limit fps and I'm afriad I'll be going over the limit in which I can't use it within 15ft. or use full-auto in 30ft. which is freaking retarded.

  • just got my gun in its a g&g r16 combat ready machine want to upgrade it but being new to the sport i have questions first are the srings stamped with #120 #130 ect. how do you know what you got. other is i want to shot heavy bbs 0.30+ other than lower fps does it hurt the inside parts of the gun. thank you if you have a respones liked your video

  • @TheJoeblow69er Heavier bb's will not affect your internals in any way. Heavier bb's will fly slower, but they will also fly straighter. The springrating is on the package for the spring.

  • KWA M4+M150 spring. Done.

  • @DGrabowski100 KWA M4+M150=broken gun

  • he doesnt look very happy

  • the tight bore barrels will not increase my fps right???

  • @bassallhour tight bore does increase the fps around 10 fps

  • So much fail here...My IQ just dropped.

  • in norway at the norwegian airsoft association the rules are

    0-350fps no safety distance and no full auto restriction

    350-450 fps 5 meter safety distance semi auto only

    450-550 fps 10 meter safety distance bolt action only

    and 550 is pretty much the max fps.

  • @marr146 That is wrong, the airsoft association require 0-300 fps for indoor CQB(SIBO). And the safety distance for 350-450 fps is 20 meter (used to be 10m, but when a lot of people failed to keep it, they pushed it to 20m so that there is a larger margin for error). The safety distance for bolt action snipers I can't remember, but I believe it is 30 meters. These are the up to date FPS rules. And yes, of course I'm from Norway.

  • unless your a sniper 500fps is ridiculous.

  • You guys should come to the Philippines if you want to upgrade your gun like that. There are open fps sites which means you can go crazy and they wont care. Usually the lowest fps in one of those games are 550 fps AEG's. Snipers go up to 800 fps.

  • Or...

    SHS UHT

    JG gears

    14 Steel tooth SuperShooter piston

    SHS steel bushings

    SHS M140 (with OK compression)

    That's 400 for <$100... And very reliable. Doesn't take a genius...

  • How much is it to send my gun in to get upgraded or do I just pay for parts and labor?

  • @nick230016 Ok, I just sent my gun in for repairs. It costs 45 dollars for labor, you have to pay for the parts and the shipping. But, if you're good with guns, you could try and do it yourself, but I recommend you send it to these guys.

  • I dont see why every one like systema motors amp motors are very well priced and can pull an m150 spring

  • How would you upgrade a gbb pistol

  • @USNSarDiver High flow valve on the mags, tight bore barrel, longer barrel.

  • @mikemetsfan97 I'm a newer player that I'm working to go 500 and its ics so saying that it's noob is bad considering some fields max fps is higher then others

  • 3000???

  • Guess who got a custom almost like a M200 type spring. (670fps) I USE .43's IN MY AEG!

  • @TheAnonymoususer5 and guess who doesnt give a fuck

  • all noobs want is HIGH FPS even though some 300 FPS guns are so much better than there high Chinese guns

  • so many upgradeable parts where do I start!!!!!!!!

  • can someone send me a list of good parts (good price, good quailty) to upgrade my g&g gr16 a3 from 350 FPS to 420-450 FPS?

  • @StarRider253 ill do so i got this bout down but i search evike more so its going to be there but if u can find these parts on gi go at it im starting pm in 5 mins

  • He didn't say what air seal nozzle.... G&P Aluminum Air seal nozzle with o-ring. You're welcome ;)

  • I shimmed my gun aaall night loong ;)

  • "Highest quality parts.."

    F**kin lol.. when he has Systema garbage on the table..

  • @TheEagleAndTheApple what do you use

  • @airsoftenforsers SHS Siegetek 5KU (mostly hop parts from them) sometimes guarder airseal parts, and JG (usually their gears or motors)

  • @TheEagleAndTheApple I Like modify internals, how about you?

  • my gun has all that but helical gears, but i only shoot a echo-1 s-130 spring..440-470.. will the helical gears make much of a difference

  • @EpicWinner106 you always need to shim an aeg if you want it to be reliable.

  • @EpicWinner106 Because gears differ from company to company and depending on what type of gears they are (high speed, torque up etc.) they don't fit in the gearbox shell all that snug, meaning there can be play when you move it side to side along the axle of the gears. So you use shims, which are basically mini washers (they range from 0.1mm to 0.5mm etc) and you add or remove shims to reduce the play on the gears and ensure the gear teeth have proper contact for optimal performance.

  • @EpicWinner106 Don't feel pressured when I say this, but it really isn't THAT hard to do work on your own gun. Research is the key. Search videos on how to take down your gun, what individual gearbox parts are, how to properly shim your gearbox etc. Once you start working on your gun more often, the more comfortable and knowledgeable you will be about all these parts.

    Of course, if you STILL feel like you shouldn't do it yourself, then have Airsoft GI or a local Airsoft store take care of it.

  • how much fps is the airsoft gi g4 a3 with .20g bbs and also are airsoft gi g4 bbs good quality?

  • This is ridiculous! I'm rocking a M90 spring in my Echo 1 SCAR-H.

    That way it is CQB ready and it will last longer but I was surprised at the range this thing has. 275 FPS is good enough

  • What camera did y'all use to tape this?

  • @marinecorps40 yeah, but...its a hobby. Hobbies always require alot of work lol

  • Systema gears suck, they are so soft and hugely overpriced. That goes for almost all Systema parts actually.

  • dude cud my subby killer even fit a m510 spring?

  • @BeastOfWarfare115 510 :O That would be like 3456389456348756378465834 FPS Lol

  • I always enjoy tims videos and his reviews and knowledge, hes probably the only guy besides axeman who knows what the hell hes talking about.

  • good luck getting access to airsoft fields for games with a 500+ FPS gun lol

  • Ok, I am looking at getting a 220 fps guns and upgrading it to at least 290-300 fps. Would this be simple and cheap enough or would I just be better off buying a better gun. I don't have a lot of money so that is why I am trying to find the best and cheapest ways of doing it. Thx.

  • how about the gear box ? do you need to change the gear box ??

  • @jivs159 you change the things inside the gearbox

  • @XxzLiLxXxDeViLzxX i mean the gearbox itself, do you need to change it ? some videos i've seen they change the gear box.

    What gear box is good to accommodate all this upgrades. I'm sure the force of impact will increase with greater FPS upgrade. wont this destroy the gear box

  • too much work...

  • what about 2x Gears ?

    

  • Agreed with the below comment, make a package with upgrade parts (all necessary parts)

  • you guys should bundle all these at once and sell them all in one like high speed kit and high fps kits

  • @nohaa114 I wouldnt support that, most people like different things. No offence to Tim, they want to sell things, but except for the prometheus gears, no real professional upgrader would use the parts shown. 

  • @nohaa114 Bad idea. Most upgraders disagree with tims list, and would pick much better but cheaper parts.

  • @nohaa114 No they shouldn't, because then a bunch of 12 year olds with 500 FPS guns are going to be running around shooting at people from 5 feet away, and then they're going to mysteriously turn up "missing" when they shoot me with it.

  • thumbs up if you thought he said sham-wow at 5:11 :D

  • I'm gonna do this to my VFC m4. Except with a m115 spring :) Should last me a while

  • those systema gears are what makes up most of that 300 dollars in parts he listed at the beginning

  • 1000 FPS? you could go deer hunting with that

  • @jackdaripper369 LOL thats a good one. Are you being serious? a cheap bb gun is 1000fps no where near a speeding bullet.

  • @Nagol98 i said that to say how impractical that is. please stop trollin and get the fuck off.

  • @jackdaripper369 I wasn't trolling dude, i was letting you know incase you were some kid that actually thought that. didn't mean to come off as a douche. you were kinda rude, i was just trying to be nice.

  • @Nagol98 well i am sorry for being rude. cant we just get along? there are bigger problem instead of fighting with a person that we dont even know and on youtube.

  • @jackdaripper369 With 1gram+ pellets. .2 plastic spheres... Not so much.

  • could i buy these parts and send my gun to you guys you guys put it together for me, then send it back?

  • Comment removed

  • Will all those parts fit in the echo 1 scar (A.S.C.)

  • @600673870VV5 OW MY FEELINGS IM GONNA GO CRY! Also look at his other comments. He's a fucking troll.

  • how do i know if my gun already has certain stock parts that i don't need to upgrade?

    i have an Echo 1 Stag Arms DMR

  • the only reason you would ever want to do this to your gun is to turn an AEG into a sniper rifle once you do all of this you might want a 6.03mm tightbore and only use very heavy bbs (.40+) then your AEG will be VERY accurate and if you add a lipo VERY high ROF the drawback (that was not mention in the video) is this will cost over $400

  • @minecraftbros719 They will upgrade your gun for you

  • The highest gun I'd ever want in an AEG for a DMR/Support kit is 550-580FPS just because you need cheater proof power, accuracy, and range with heavy bbs.

  • can you send me a upgrade list for a g4 a3 that will shoot at 400 fps and about 18 -20 bps thanks

  • @campinggear1 My MC51 is shooting close to 400FPS with half ass modding and an M110 dont ask me how I got it but I thats what my madbull chrono says

  • madbull red isnt a hard bucking, its a soft type, cmon tim!!!

  • My answer from Poland: Buy JG M4, put SP130 work on airseal, put lipo. Coongratulations! You've achieved 500fps. That's in real , I have JG M4 with plastic body shooting 560 fps with SP150. All stock.

  • If i upgrade to this set up what size battery would i need, 8.4v, 9.6v o r12v

  • I assume a precision barrel increases the muzzle velocity due to increasing pressure from the compressed air trying to expand?

  • for shims, i recommend SHIM WOW!

  • SHIM WOW!

  • I just got an m4... What's the first upgrade I should put on it?

  • @IBleedBlue2211 that depends on wich brand it is. There are some guns that are very good stock like KWA and VFC while others might need some tuning before showing their true potential (most chinese clones). I'd say reshiming, correcting the AoE adding a new Bucking and regreasing are some of the most basic stuff you can do to your gun, later on you might wanna get a Tight Bore Barrel and then upgrade the piston/cylinder and heads after they break, Good Luck with your gun.

  • ok so serious question,

    1)is the KWA motor capable of pulling back the m150 spring

    2)how good is the air compression on the KWA

    3)are the KWA gears with shimming them capable of shooting 550 FPS

  • What about an airseal nozzle??????? lol you forgot that! ahh w/e ill put it on fb lol

  • my field lets us shoot real guns. lol jk

  • Isnt the MadBull Red bucking a soft type?

    It is classified 60°, hard buckings have 80°

  • The field we usually play at has no fps limit but they assume nobody is topping over 550 fps

  • i dont know why would anybody would want anything above 450.. it doesnt mean that the range is gonna go through the roof and the highest fps allowed at parks i know of is 400

  • those are hellacool gears

  • Will high tourque gears take less load off of my motor and battery? Im running an m130 with high tourque motor and 5000mah 9.6 but the battery doesn't last as long as i though it would.

  • @byteme13456874 it depends on ur motor and ur shims, and spring. there are motors that arent as energy efficient. a good shimjob will let the gears spin with more ease so the motor doesnt have to use as much strength to turn them. and the stronger the spring is, the more the motor has to work because the motor turns the gears and the gears pull the spring. hope this helped ;)

  • @LiteScar thank u very much this cleared up a few things. The only other thing that i would like to know is that i don't kno the difference between m130 springs. Do they have different lenghts? Are they made of something different? Do they have irregular coils (mine has this). I have a modify sp130 spring if this helps. Also if my srping is no good should i get a different spring to help out with my motor and battery

  • @byteme13456874 difference between springs is that different springs are more layered and others are thicker so the metal is stronger and stays in the same position stronger. so there is more resistance and thus the spring is much harder and stronger. irregular coils?

    i think ur thinking about irregular pitch springs. its a unique design that supposedly gives the spring a longer life span so it doesnt break in as fast. and it maintains the fps strength for a longer time. normally, over time

  • @LiteScar Ya i was meaning irregular pitch. sorry bout that. So im guess through all this that if i were to say buy an m120, my motor wouldn't have to work as hard to pull the spring back and my battery would last longer, and i would be able to play with my gun at most fields for outdoor play? Is this right?

  • @byteme13456874 no need for apologies, theres always some term or word that every airsofter wont know right away. yes, the weaker the spring, the less the motor has to work and it uses less power to turn a weaker spring. at m120, ur gun can still handle long range. u arent going to gain much range between spring strengths after m100's. downgrading from a m130 to a m120 will probably only take 10 feet away. and m120s can hit 400fps, so u should be fine ;)

  • @byteme13456874 over time, a spring will wear down and the fps will drop a litle. but iregular or regular pitch wont matter much because a normal spring wont lose a whole lot of fps even after years. i say u downgrade the spring to a m120 because that alone will greatly lower the stress on the motor as well as the gearbox. otherwise, u can always keep a spare battery in case ur current one runs out of juice

    if u ever have more questions, dont hesitate to ask. im always happy to help ;)

  • @byteme13456874 well its because High Torque motors suck more power for their large magnets trying to pull back your spring. How is your 5000mah not lasting long? Are you hold the trigger down the entire time.

  • @ThatNoobSomber Its lasting fine now. No im not trigger happy but i had a bad solder on my mostfet at i simply resoldered it and we are good now. Im also looking into deans connectors to up performance a little. I also did get helical gears and noticed that my motor runs longer without heating up

  • Whats the point of 500FPS most places wont let you use that and most sane people wont let you shoot it at them. I understand if its a support weapon or a DMR/sniper but really 400+ is fine. IMO.

  • If I upgrade my motor, gears, bushings, shims and cylinder. Will I have to upgrade the spring? (e.g will it break the standard spring) because I dont want an over powerful weapon

  • HOW DO I GET YOU GUYS TO PUT THEY'S THINGS ON THE GUN

  • keep in mind that if you have a 500 FPS spring and you combine it with all the nice air seal parts along with a TBB and good hop up you'll be pushing well over 500 FPS

  • Oh good lord, a aluminum pistol head on a high-fps dmr..... That is definitely going to crack your gearbox after a while..... Stick to polymer's for this

  • U forgot accuracy barrel

  • why are ball bearings bad for high fps?

  • @LiteScar Ball bearing bushings can jam up under hi-tension. Ball-bearing bushings are great for hi-speed but for hi-fps, solid metal's are stronger

  • @g4bandit ok thanks for the info :)

    what do ballbearings do btw?

  • @LiteScar They help the bushings spin, which reduces friction between the gears and the gearbox shell. It increases rate of fire and increases the lifespan of the gun overall

  • @g4bandit i understand now thankyou very much :)

  • Lol 1000+ fps? yeah kill your gearbox in 2 days go ahead

  • @JakeDeMaria more like about 5 shots lol

  • at my field u can have 600 fps

  • i got my gr 16 to shoot 450 fps, i could have done 500 but why? thats not that cool, my sniper is barley aloud on the field i play because it shoots 550fps, so why would i want that on my aeg!?

  • Wow. That awnserd alot of questions. Thankyou!

  • Ya how much would it cost if we send in a gun for you to upgrade it for us?

  • could some one just send the gun to yall and get yall to upgrade and how mhuch would that cost

  • @TheJonesdrew 45 bucks

  • @TheJonesdrew they actually do have that option on the website. Depending on how heavily you want them to upgrade it will cost you anywhere from 20 bucks to 80. The upgrade deals come in packages, and I think they have to be purchased WITH the gun, not after.

  • @TheJonesdrew If you send it to me (i live in Germany though...), i will charge you the price of the upgrade parts, plus a few dollars for instlaling and modding them so that they last.

  • @andromedarr Will you cover shipping back to US?

  • @Hyudryu Hm, that depends on the price.....

    As i cant do all that in Germany, that would be shipping to austria and back, i dont know how much that costs...

  • @TheJonesdrew they have upgrade services from $60 to $330

  • Could i just send my gun in to your technicians ? If so send me a message of the number thanks.

  • Ha I love looking at people on youtube saying they have 800FPS guns but whats the use if you can't use it?

  • @Guitar4God1 To see how far you can push your guns performance. Because it takes skill to build a gun at that power level and still have it work for more than 1000 rounds.

  • @Guitar4God1 I agree, 800 fps thats practically an automatic bb gun.

  • @Guitar4God1 800 FPS guns are there to show the technical skills of the tech, they are not there to play...well except in Russia

  • @andromedarr Yeah, but somtimes it's just kids trolling because they're not 100% sure what fps means or something lol

  • @Guitar4God1 u can use it. just have to use it in different ways like target shooting, pest control.

  • @Guitar4God1 you cant use it INDOORS*. with little kids and regulated airsoft. out in the woods , id take an 800 fps gun any day, us men can handle it

  • Comment removed

  • @maxcady5 LMAO Dude you would shatter most peoples eye protection.....

  • @Guitar4God1 not possible of a 800 fps lols

  • @Guitar4God1 not possible of a 800 fps lols

  • @beastly789100 There is a video on youtube of a guy with an 800+ fps vsr.

  • @chicken11999933 holy shit im not playing with him lol

  • @beastly789100 actually its very possible. i ran at 575fps on a m140. let alone this are m190's as well as ms210 springs..

  • see my DMR p90 @ 500 fps. field tested and reliable.

  • @g3tr00t3d why did you make a DMR out of a p90 which is a small cqb length gun? That just seems like a waste of money and time. Why not take a longer gun like an m4/m16/sig550/etc and use that as the base for a dmr? You would already have a stable platform that you can throw a lot of different upgrades in, mainly you would already have a long inner barrel instead of the p90's itty bitty barrel. No disrespect of anything I just fail to see the reasoning...

  • @MrSleepyPuppy it is a bullpup design. therefore, a longer barrel fits fine. i put my tavor's 509mm inner barrel with a suppressor to hide it. it is very light and quiet. easy to use one handed. this project only cost me $200 including the cost of the p90. the p90 is the easiest platform to work on. i have several m4's but the cost to convert them to DMR is much more. my tavor has a TBB and shoots fine with an m150 main spring, but it's not as light or mobile as the p90.

  • @175manbearpig

    No the l96 takes sniper springs, maybe a psg1 spring.. although some snipers take aeg springs

  • how would we send our guns in to be upgraded and how much would it cost?

  • Put the parts in the description, as well as a link :)

  • does the battery on a gun effect how much power is behind your bb

  • @reedezycandrinkezy No, a new Battery only affects how many BBs are going down Range in Time. It has effects on ROF and Wear and Tear

  • A Toyko Marui will ALWAYS outrange a JG (same model of course).

  • Area 1000, yeeesh.......

  • so. noob to airsoft hopin to get some help from you experts. do you need to upgrade the gears if you want to upgrade the spring. if you have an aeg sniper can you manually cock the spring back to fire.

  • @YZ125ups piston tooth will break at the open end or the spring guide will break. most likely, the motor will not be able to pull the spring.

  • whats the music name?

  • @YZ125ups That depends on the Weapon. But you will probably break the Piston, The Gearboxshell, the Gears, the Bushings, the Spring Guide, the Hop Up, the Piston Head and everything else in the GUn. The Spring is that hard, the stock parts cant withstand it. but you will also not get thatmucvh FPS, because Stock Airseal Parts are not the best.

  • can you breakdown an Ares TAR 21? i want to know how easy/hard it would be to upgrade one of them

  • @LyPatrick i upgraded my Tavor with a Matrix Magnum motor, full metal teeth poly piston, aluminum piston head with ball bearings, spring guide with ball bearings, rewired with AB mosfet, replaced faulty trigger microswitch, 6.03 TB, madbull blue bucking and nub, sorbo padding and AOE on piston, 9.6v 1600mAH.

    main spring is m120 @ 460 fps or m150 @ 520 fps. it pulls the m150 easy so it should handle an m170.

  • Why would you even want over 500 FPS unless you're using a DMR or something similar? Not to mention most fields wouldn't even let you in if your gun was 500 FPS...

  • @RenegadeSANTA If you have full auto permanentyl dissabled and your the distance away that they would say for a sniper rifle most fields will.I know its that way in Ohio.

  • @RenegadeSANTA Most fields would let you use 500-550fps as long as the gun was modified for semi-only.

  • @RenegadeSANTA In finland full auto guns can shoot 1,6joules semiautos can shoot 2,25 joules and manual guns can shoot 3joules

  • @RenegadeSANTA it's the Clarkson-esque mentality that m0ar p0wrz = m0ar 1337 w00tw00t etc. This coupled with people thinking of airsoft guns as weapons (which is kinda the opposite if what they are) so the more coke cans it can shoot through, i.e. the more damage it can do, the better.

  • @RenegadeSANTA a lot of out door fields allow guns that push hard so long as their semi or bolt action. they also usually have minimum engagement distances. I can say as a air aoft marksman that more fps really helps along with a tbb and hop up. also when the gun is pushing 500 fps on .20g odd are I'm not going to be using those but rather something much heavier like .45 or .48g bbs.

  • @RenegadeSANTA Agreed. i have a 400 fps and they wont let me in unless i use .25 bbs... Its so pointless to get a 500 fps gun

  • @RenegadeSANTA my field lets u shoot 750 fps
