How to build your own 200mph Supercar; at home in your spare time. Part 1

Every petrolhead dreams of building their own car. In this video you can catch a summary of 1500 hours of work building the Arete GT 200mph supercar. This 1500 hours, brings the car from; little more than a dream, to the stage of assembly where components are starting to look like a rolling platform. The video, is a compilation of moments from 40 individual videos, outlining the work in detail. From the original scale model, to the full size plug, producing molds for body parts, laminating composite body parts, fabricating custom suspension components, a twin turbo 1Jz GTE rebuild, a scratch built exhaust and muffler system and all the other little parts necessary to create a car from the ground up. This is not a kit, component car, or restoration, but the brain child of Jay Jarvie; prototype engineer and fabricator. Watch how one man can be concept artist, designer, engineer, fabricator, body shop, tuner and all around problem solver. If you've ever wanted to “Build your own!” then this video will show you one man's method and hopefully inspire you to take the plunge in becoming a BuilderCreator as well.

Three years late but this man just made the connection between designing kayaks and designing super cars that I did not know was possible. Personally I’d design a drivetrain and tube chassis first, but this is literally how high performance whitewater and slalom kayaks are conceived. I’m kinda sold and now believe there’s a real path for me to get into motorsports design. Thank you sir

"I'm new to this electronics world, BUT building our own This is just gold, what a build!

I have never seen a YouTube video where the maker hasn't made any compromise on quality or use of poor equipment this is one of a kind content. It's awesome to see artisan engineering being done by a fully qualified and experienced maker, very cool.

[RByrne]

This is the best thing I've seen on YouTube, ever. It's not common to see someone who can engineer something of this caliber and make it just as perfectly. Very nice, thank you!

I consider myself being a handy guy. I built three houses, two garages and two workshops, the biggest enough for a small carpenter company. I renovated many cars, built a cab and two pick-ups on standard car chassies. Also a few bike builds and a boat. Now, this is probably streching my abilitys a bit, but i could most likely build something like this. Unfortunantly i am almost 60 and my lungs and heart has soon passed their experations date, witch stops me from starting a build; -i would never see it finished. That, of course, make me sad. But to see some one make a fanstastic project like this come true, truly cheers me up! You, Sir, are a true professional. Respect!

[rizkif]

this is like living in a dream, you can make whatever on your mind passionately

[rennch.]

Dude, you are playing a different sport than the rest of us. Wow.

[agustinguzman]

Technologically, you are one of the reasons why we are where we are today. This is far beyond impressive. This made me sit back and realize how important your work is to humanity. Talk about craftsmanship and precision. This is a prime example of its origins! A brain and hands! Thank you.

[marlonmoneda]

Jesus Christ, you literally have the knowledge and experience of like 10 or more life-long, highly-trained, highly-skilled professionals!!! All I can say is, I suppose its time for me to hit the woodshop, that's for sure!

[crcxr]

This is by far one of the most impressive things I've ever seen on the internet. Thank you!

[STDavis-emdf]

I dont have a clue how 83 of you could dislike this. The level of effort and craftsmanship of this build is grade A!

[BUILTOFFICIAL]

THIS IS INCREDIBLE! I"m going to link this channel to my viewers I'm genuinely amazed by your skillset

Hi, to have done this kind of work for years I’m 75 retired and one tip I might give to you is that all the clay is very nice for flanges. There is a foam comes in squares. It’s usually used for flower arrangements. It will not melt, win in the presence of styrene, it is easier to manipulate then I scuff it down or it might need shaping and the last step is to press aluminum tape over the face sort of like you would wrap it with aluminum tape. Seems like it would take extra time but it really doesn’t. It will allow you to have much more flexibility in the shape of the flange for what it’s worth. Thanks for the video.

[dannybenhur]

This man is great, most importantly he is genuine... you're an inspiration Sir...

[DavidGuyton]

Thank you for filming this entire process and presenting it in such a great way. It's on my bucket list to design and build my own car and this helps a lot. I am a metalworker so I will be doing mine in aluminum, but I'll need to build a buck like you did (only half of one though). I had no idea drywall mud could be used as a base for that. I am blown away by your obvious wealth of knowledge. I don't know that the average person would grasp just how much you need to know to design and build something like this. Absolutely incredible work.

YouTube Recommends : "Would you like to feel inadequate about your design and fabrication skills?"

Me, like a fool : "Why... yes."

[ORCA]

As a car enthusiast and fan of everything custom, i would quite literally give up everything just for a chance to work with such projects/people. Kudos!

[dannybenhur]

He is building every part from scratch... So amazing...

[CYMotorsport]

If a video can be a spirit animal, i'd happily take this as mine.

Finally someone explained: "How to build your own 200mph Supercar; at home in your spare time. Part 1" to me. I've needed this my whole life
