+Ivan Nosic, you have to factor in that the Civic's gearbox and gear ratios were very well suited for the low-speed course like Ebisu. The Silvia on the other hand was geared more for a high-speed course.
+ChrisCas aka Superautobacs they are geared according to their specific output thats why turbo is longer in order to make better use of its power band thats it!
Ivan Nosic According to the video, the Civic was geared to suit Ebisu, while the Silvia wasn't. I'm sure the final drive ratio on the civic was much more suited to this course than say, Sugo.
Blehtubezz Aus thank you I was explain this to someone else , but the point flew right over his head , on a stretch it becomes a drag race where unfortunately big power will take the lead or at the very least close whatever gap you opened prior yo that corner, but on the corners that lighter chassis , better grip will haul ass on you on entering and existing those corners resulting in an unexpected gap, some people just don't understand
n/a is God turbos.are for people who don't truelly know how to build and tune a real motor. I haven't got more than 1 lap in yet but I'm expecting a 280hp N/a Civic to totally rip on a 400 F/I Silvia that's not even a question
@@ericdrisgula3879 turbos give volumetric efficiency - i.e. they effectively increases the theoretical size of the engine using boost.... they use them in f1 and they definitely know about building and tuning real motors.. with built internals, boost from an efficient turbo, and supporting mods you can get a 2.0 turbo to 600bhp, its done often enough its almost a banality, whereas that's practically impossible on a 2.0NA.. heck, getting 300bhp out of a 2.0NA is almost a small miracle..
I know a guy who has done maybe 5000 km driving in shit boxes under 120 hp plays forza a lot but thinks hes a real expert but I seen him drive wheel and sux dick cant even shift a manual and cant even do paddle shift manaual LOLLOL egos man egos , the ego is stongest when someone is worthless and sees other around him excel that's when the puffy chest comes out of the shit cunts
That was a great run. That N/A Civic gave that Boosted silvia hell. Good weight/power distro between the two. Silvia just had a bit more up top thanks to the spoolie boi.
The Silvia was sandbagging when it stayed behind the civic. They do this to make it interesting. It could have run away and hide from the civic, but what fun is that.
Put the same box in the Silvia with the same gear ratios and it'll likely be battling with traction loss, especically at corner exits, unless traction control is setup.
I really enjoyed this video. All your Honda vids Miroshi-san make me long for my old modded '89 CRX. I have had modded NA and turbo cars but the fast NA ones are special when done right :)
thanks miroshi for upload. drift king very good race driver and friendly funny guy. he drove fr cars and civics fwd very well. which car he drove on each show the win stake is high depend on competition car spec. i like to watch him drive. aggressive n funny. keiichi san is legend
This vid just inspired me to get my eg8 back on the track! It's not the typical or first option for track cars but I love it even more as its unique. Thanks for the post!
the 4dr has a longer wheelbase so its more stable, and its still every bit as capable. I love the idea of a fast 4dr though, I want to build one up with a turbo and awd
watching this video makes me hope one day FIA made WTCC and GT racing series would be as decent as this, knowing there are different engine aspirations in this demo battle video. quite nice stuff
as the popularity for turbos go up, this is a good video. I really am biased, because I love forced induction over n/a, but even I know that nothing is perfect. Drags, tracks, drifting, and everything else determines performance based on what you are planning on doing. This is great video showing that turbos aren't always the answer.
F1 cars has turbo in the 80s and they have turbos now. It will help you get out of the tight curves, just a bit of a twitch in the process. Rally cars with Group B and Group A , some of them were fitted with turbos and still good on corners.
Takashi must have made a mistake in the uphill section, that allowed Tsuchiya to overtake the Silvia in the first round. In the other laps the Silvia was clearly faster in the uphill section. Or he made very good use of the slipstream.
+Steffen kawa I believe Takashi did it on purpose because the race will lose its interest,, don't forget it is a tv show after all ;) And don't forget if you watch best motoring they tend to favor Honda cars since Tsuchiya and other drivers of BM work for Honda ;)
No no the are all serious race drivers BMI /HV would never do that;). Nah, you are probaly spot on, sometimes i don't consider the most logical solution.^^
+Niko DemonZ yeah i was like as if the civic caught up and made that much head room on an uphill against a turbo. the silvia had already shown the fact that it had faster acceleration on the flat
The silvia rwd had a more ideal line when he attacked on the outside of the hairpin but this lead to the fwd civic taking the inside which overtook the silvia. I think takashi might have tried to counter DK by doing a slow entry to a fast exit but failed and went too wide. Also, DK capitilized from the moment he had the inside line.
Hayai DemoN these are all hardened veteran professional drivers. Not a single one of them will give a inch away to anyone. They all consider themselves as the very best of the best and all want to win.
Yea yeah. The Silvia won. But if your looking at skills. It was most definitely the Honda. Also don’t forget the Honda is also a lightweight fwd car. They’re both light cars but the lines where incomparable. That was a awesome race. Wish I could see more like this on television
The Silvia was obviously sand bagging it the first few laps to make it more exciting..The Turbos torque makes a huge difference , especially a circuit like this.Having said that Tsuchiya is an amazing driver. A true legend
I love RWD to the point that i bought an FRS, but i'm a firm believer in weight>power. These cars both have superb handling, so i'll forget that factor, even though they were close enough it could've been a game changer. That 240 must have felt like a boat compared to the Honda.
hate to say but civic wins no matter what .. look at the hp. difference and civic still on his ass. if he had another 50 hp . he would of wrecked the silvia.. lmao.. love the Silvia though I had one.. btw civic was driven by the drift king ;)
Did the civic cross the finish line first? No. It didn't win first. HOWEVER, I totally agree that it is a beast and should never be looked down upon. The silvia is a fast car, but the civic driver DK is a faster driver.
The Civic is beast, but not really wins this. Had the race be 2 or 3 laps longer the Silvia will run far away. You can easily see 2 laps before the end. DK already struggling with front end grip resulting him understeering and missing corner apex constantly. While the Silvia still holds its line perfectly.
@@saifuddinudin1748 Even if the Civic has 400hp. It still doesn't answer high tyre wear which leads to understeering problem. Again had this race we're longer and involve tyre wear even if it had 400hp. The Civic would be half lap behind.
@@zafrilizhar6846 well, its basically like motorcycle transmission, in some case, the clutch is used only from dead stop, to move the car, in the first gear. If the car already speed up, for upshift you just flick the geear lever without need to press the clutch, but you may still need to press the clutch for downshift, like the video shown, for smoother downshift. Heel & toe technique like pure manual often applied. If you ever heard dog clutch transmission, it is something like that. Maybe someone else could explain better than me.
Is the old time sequential gearbox require engage clutch to downshift? I see modern race car with sequential gearbox they dont need to do that, only use clutch on static launch.
Yeah you pretty much are right. New and modern sequential transmission, cut ignition whenever the shifter goes for the next gear. Back then it wasn't as advanced.
Surely the 1.6 engine from the Fiesta st deserves an honourable mention? People have pushed over 400bhp on stock internals which is very impressive in my eyes when standard its less than 200.
And how long did it last? Sure you could get 300K miles out of it if you never take it to the track or run it into boost but if you're a serious competitor you're going to spend more money rebuilding it than if you had just gone with a larger motor & less boost or had just built the engine before extracting big power. Making power is one thing, making power reliably is another.
john jackson Stock internals for 400 bhp on a 1.6? Not even conrods??? Sure??? I doubt so... conrods are the most usual change on turbo engines when pushing them beyond certain point (torque), this is, Stage 3 engines with bigturbo
john jackson so then the sohc and dohc 1.6L from honda deserve mentioning as well. There's 500 plus horsepower b16a engines on stock block and stick port head
Hero racing cars with a beautiful sunset/sunrise orange sky on a twìsty astroturf tracks with practically nonexistent run off in front of the armco.... ahh this to me is a typical motorsport 90's exhibition 👌
RulfusTheBear for you that make excuses; the Silvia is turbo with another 200 more hp and I'm sure over 300 lb ft more torque and at a lower rpm as well. there ya go! stop playing tit for tat because your favored car lost.
Now I get this video recommended. Anyways, talk about turbo lag. All that deceleration and acceleration heats up that turbo pretty quick and the intercooler takes a bit to respond in a track that has twisties in a straight 1320 feet is a different story. All motor seem to respond better because it has less heat and no turbo lag because it has no turbo. This videos are very entertaining to watch and educational at the same time. No Wonder why they put V8s in the GTR in the supercars race.
Let's not forget that the Silvia has double the tire and plenty more power than the Civic. Imagine the Silvia with the same specs. I'll let you guys do the calculations
