[@ouch9326]

the areodynamic friction sound sounds like part fo the gma t50 engine lab video on their youtube channel, is that intentionally tuned sound? the inline i think can sound better, even feeling more torquier in the sense it its more simple sounding than v6 so it sounds more like grunting like how you may do sometimes when moving heavy weight. see youtbe video by savagese review of maserati grecale , it sounds somewhat like lc500 v8 but without enough base heaviness and sharp sound and rough edge to it and to it but with greater range in pitch than lc500. also is there a fake engine sound kit aftermarket

The shifter issue is a big problem with CAE on the Focus RS as well, it need constant adjustment to get it to continue working properly, otherwise it comes out of alignment and you "lose" gears as you experienced, pretty cool build and fun lap though!

[@4444turbotom]

3 years without any problem. Then Misha tried it and it broke 😅😂

[@BanzaiYaris]

I keep the adjustment allen key in the cup holder for mine because it happens from time to time. Usually it never takes more than 1/4 turn to be perfect again. I've adjusted mine like 4 times in 3 years because of lost gears lol

[@75yomu]

6:31 That shifting from 3rd going straight to 5th reminds me of Keiichi Tsuchiya's AE86 where he made the 5th gear his 3.5 for closer ratios cuz iirc the 4th gear of an AE86 cant be modified.

[@papapetad]

I vaguely remember the fact but definitely watched that video not so long ago. I just thought it was neat that he customized the gearbox that way.

[@AbrahamArthemius]

Yeah, though the reasoning for DK's AE86 was because Gunsai in general favours acceleration more than top speed hence the 5th gear is modified to be a 4th gear with closer ratio. Pretty neat stuff by Tec-Arts

[@jihadjoe]

I remember reading that in Japan one of the famous Evo tuning shops wanted to find the limits of the GR Yaris engine so they tried boosting it way up. They made it to something like 400-450hp and it just wouldn't blow. So they dialed things back a bit then sent Nobuteru Taniguchi to drive the car around Tsukuba where it did a 58.5 second lap pretty much on the first try. See: qFHxA9zW5tk

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

There was two sections there(sorry unsure of the names) where Misha was as quick or slightly quicker from 100-190 with no 4th gear than with it! Lol. Clearly it missed 4th gear in places but the flexibility of that little engine blew me away.

[@shshh-fw9eh]

Misha, you look invincible in this Yaris with the 4th gear working. Literally you look in complete peace thrashing it at and beyond its absolute limit. Power and chassis seem to match perfectly, kudos to the owner and the guys who built it.

[@stoneeh]

Yes! Satisfying conclusion to the E46 lap! Proper build! Lap 2 was very pleasant to watch. What KW suspension is it? Power seems stock-ish? Which is weird, because even on the straights it was kinda keeping up with that (supposed) 480 whp M3.

I think the grub screws on the cage need adjusting. It's possible to limit gear changes if the adjustment gets out of wack. Done the same thing on my Coolerworx before not being able to get reverse. No gearbox issues just the linkage needs a little adjustment. Cool car and lap. In gear acceleration is good but I think it's the weight, 4wd and auto blip that allows for pretty rapid laptimes. Did Misha speak of a power output? Might have missed that
