      @@SWR112 Only pass I could give them is if they are editing the video on a laptop or something with tiny little speakers with very limited range, it's hard to tell the difference between crazy loud and not so loud volume levels because you might have volume cranked and tiny speakers only get so loud anyways.
      If they had proper studio monitor speakers with even 50 watts pushing them, the difference between voice level and music level would be much more apparent. That's why people watching on their phones or laptops don't notice anything wrong sometimes.
      But still that's no excuse, they can watch the level meters in the editor. Guaranteed that voice is -10 db and the music is +2 db or something crazy like that.
      I happened to watch on my home theater with 7.1 channel Yamaha Aventage RX-A880 receiver and the music is crazy loud, and voice is very soft. I could fix this entire vid in about ten minutes in my simple cheap video editor. Their new video is the same way. Same guy or girl editing these and doing a terrible job. Music doesn't even need to be there most of the time let alone overpowering the guy's voice. SMH

Its a UK car and has been very well maintained and gone through top to bottom by the owner,and bear in mind it is not only pretty much 27 years old but is also totally stock. "EPB" was also the very same car originally used by a certain Mr Clarkson on a certain other popular car programme,in an old 90s road test with the Ford Escort Cosworth.

    Great vid 👍 I own a ST205 and standard they are quite tame. In my opinion Toyota was reserved with the setup of the customer version of the car to make it easy to live with & safe for everyone. But with a few tweaks its not hard to unlock the real power of the GT-Four's 3s-GTE and chassis.

    Small track, shorter gearing in the Yaris, would help make it abit more agile in this scenario.
    As well as expecting some HP to be lost if that's a stock Celica without modifications.
    Despite longer gears and thus slightly slower to spool the turbo, it still did pretty well, and might put up a better fight on a track where it can stretch its legs.

    That is the EXACT same colour of my ST205 GT4 I owned (and loved) when I lived in Japan over 10 years ago. Such a lovely car to drive. Much more a GT car though, as I am sure those who have owned/driven them would agree. The 3SGTE is a sensational motor, and really woken up with a dump pipe off the turbo (deleting the enormous primary cat), and a boost controller set to 1.2 bar. The water/air intercooler on these provide much more flow than the equivalent air/air intercoolers on the MR2s. Sadly, the heavy FWD torque split of the AWD system and the tiny clutch that just starts to melt when you try to launch it do take the fun away. But driven briskly at 8/10 they are superb and oh so smooth. I must admit, I do wonder why they run a brand spanking Yaris GR (25 years newer) against a stock ST205 GT4 - like in some way they don't know the outcome - old vs new is always a cool comparo, but give respect to the GT4 where it's deserving. How about a new M3/M5 vs a 25yo E36 M3/E39 M5? The difference would be an absolute destruction...perhaps requiring time lapse on the cameras to wait for the older M car to catch up! Again, not dissing the older M cars; they too have a magic analogue appeal about them, and are a fantastic driver's car!

It had more capability for monitoring the engine and how it ran and it was bloody quick! Had two years of nice, 1bar fun until I put a mild hybrid on it and decided that new internals would be an idea. In final guise, mine made a nice safe 336bhp.
      Was it worth adding a Link G3 to my “stock” Rev 3 turbo only to run a little more boost than standard? Absolutely! I didn’t have any intention to build it at the start lol.
