[@fastharri]

Unimpressed with the GR Yaris at the start, I’d thought AWD and its light weight would’ve given it an edge despite the power deficit, especially given the ring’s tight corners. That Type R is a beast.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

The GR Yaris is also really a nice car, probably perfect for mountain pass 😄👌 The Type R is absolutely a beast at race tracks 🚀😄

[@Daumex]

You're forgetting one thing though: no one is a professional driver here. Yaris in the right hands is probably a more capable car due to lower weight and 4x4. See how this Type R with 320hp couldn't overtake the Megane RS with 265hp?

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

@@Daumex The Megane is tuned and has much more power, therefore not the best comparison 😅 The Yaris is the perfect car for mountain, there I guess the Civic has a hard life to follow, on the race track the Civic is faster as it has been designed for that and you also see the difference in the official fastest lap times 😁🚀👍

[@hirayaman246]

Thats an older version of RS ( M3 RS) which had less power than todays models, but the handling and the chassis is perfect.....even if you have 100 hp more than him, you wont get passed him because it was made for curves. The only downside of a megane is top speed ( sometimes limited) so on straights, there should be an advantage- however cancelled here, because of traffic and probably some ecu tweak.... However very nice race and selfcontrol, you respected the car and the others. If Honda does not race, there is no Honda.....

Fantastic race between two closely setup cars. Can you tell me does the Renult have a 6 banger in it? Or a Four with turbo? The driver was quick to dive into the corners, while you were the faster coming out of them. Was that Track damp or just glossy from the camera angle the tarmac looked like it was a little on the damp side in certain areas. 🤔... I watched this race 5 times and each time I saw or learned something new. Your a Great aspiring Driver, What makes you very good is that You know when to push hard, and when it's unsafe to try a maneuver. I'm a new subscriber, if you have a Patron site let me know. I'm happy to help you in your driving pursuits. 🚗 But your talking passenger GottA Go, he was talking at times you really need All Of Your Head and Senses in the Race and with What your doing. Plus You would carry more speed in the corners without his weight flopping around in the front seat. His weight was throwing off your tires grip and steering progress. SIR you need to Drive alone Just Your Camera, You, and your car. You will see much better response and handling from that Glorious Civic Monster you have in your very capable hands.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you for your comments and questions Benjamin, appreciated 😊👍 The Civic is a four cylinder 2 liter turbo engine (or what do you meant with 6 banger?) 🤷‍♂️ In certain areas the track was still damp, as it was cold over night and in the morning there was fog and dew 😶‍🌫️ I do not have any Patron site, just this KZbin Channel, not a professional driver, just for fun. 😃 That’s also the reason for carrying a passenger making hilarious comments, but next time will do some laps alone to be quicker 😁🚀👋

[@benjaminwilliams3568]

@@NordschleifeTypeR I'm asking if the Renault you were Hunting has a 6 Banger Engine Or turbo 4 Banger engine. In America and Canada some serious driving enthusiast or Gear Heads refer to smaller engines like 4 cylinder as a 4 Banger or 4 popper. 6 cylinders are referred to as 6 bangers or 6 poppers no matter if their turbo equipped or not.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

@@benjaminwilliams3568 actually I don’t know but I don’t think he had a 6 banger, that would be a massive upgrade, and knowing the rules in Switzerland (he had Swiss number plates) quite impossible 😩 Probably a 4 banger but with mods like bigger turbo, other software setup, maybe other intercooler, etc 👌🚀

[@elysian3623]

@@NordschleifeTypeR If I'm honest it looks like it's fairly standard, I know from experience that a 2010 meg can run a mk2 focus rs closely standard (in a straight line) and on a decent remap with some minor supporting mods will push up to around 300 - 320hp without much extra in, obviously civic on a remap can gain a bit too, as soon as you start touching a bigger turbo on the meg you might as well go all in because there's only a few options out there due to the standard turbo being a TD04 of evo fame so turbo kits like ktec's or other specialits are quite big and quite expensive, around £3k -4k don't even remember if that includes an intercooler haha. Usually a meg with a big turbo will start at around 400 with some examples like RS tuning in the uk hitting around 600hp without huge modification, ie, no real block work done so no sleeves, rebore or crank/stroke changes just rebuild items like cams pistons ect. had my meg for 5 years and still having fun

[@vMaxHeadroom]

@@benjaminwilliams3568 The Megane is a 2 litre 4 cylinder turbo engine with around 275BHP in it's top form in this version. The new model is a 1.8 Litre turbo 4 cylinder with 300 BHP in the Trophy version. This one may well have been mapped for a bit more HP as it was keeping the Type R at bay though in the straights the Type R would probably have got it. The Megane in the corners is immense and for track use is a weapon with great handling chracteristics.

For price/performance you can't go wrong with the Meg. Civic looked more stable coming out the corners and the Meg looked more direct going in, but depends on what tyres it was running. Hands down the civic is a little better, but it's also 9 years difference. Also the looks aren't for everyone. Oh that Merc looked like a boat in the corners too 😅

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Very good analysis 👍 You are right the Civic is more stable than the Megane, but as said also many years difference, it’s a pity that the new Megane is only 1.8l and less power, which is needed! 😊 Merc has a lot of power but it’s not made for the track 🙋🏻‍♂️

What tires do you run on your TypeR and how long do they last? What a great trrack car and so well driven.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you 😊👍 I’m driving light weight wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 semi slick tires 265/35 R18, they last 30-40 Nordschleife laps and some 5’000 kilometres on the street 👌😃

nice driving ! How do you think about Mazda3 MPS wich was very reasonably priced.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you 😊 Ou sorry, to be honest I don’t know about the Mazda 🤷‍♂️ I also don’t remember to (actively) have read an article and don’t have a friend or so driving one Before I bought the Civic I’ve read 10 or more articles about it, to have a comprehensive picture, maybe you find some for the Mazda as well? 😀

@@NordschleifeTypeR Thank you for your reply. I had Porsche 944S2, Mada3 MPS 1st, 2nd, Subaru WRX S4, then WRX S4 STi, sadly in Japan. I'd like to drive them at Nur. I've been driving in Germany last 24 yrs. I'ts pity I only drive rent a car in EU.

@@Tubingenstr All good cars 👌 When you are in Germany there are some options to rent a car directly near the track, so maybe take the opportunity 😄😆

[@haveaseatplease]

What are your thoughts on the stock breaks of the Type R?

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Generally they are good, but if you break hard and late (as on the track) they suffer a lot, the discs crack so that a regular change is required, what I recommend is steel braided brake hose and better brake fluid 👋

[@haveaseatplease]

@@NordschleifeTypeR Thanks for the reply and the good info. Follow-up question: is it legal in Switzerland to change the stock disks for larger ones (for a car that is also driven on the public road)?

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

@@haveaseatplease well, it really depends, for bigger discs I believe rather not Every chance needs to have homologation of Swiss authority which means that the producer or importer of it has to go trough an approval process in Switzerland, this is only done by the producer if sufficient potential buyers are there, so it’s a judgement of the producer, single approval is also possible, but so expensive that not worth it

[@achristian7015]

Hard to tell from watching a video, but it looks like you need more tire grip. I can hear the tires squeal and seeing the looseness in the steering wheel, yet i do not see a lot of lateral Gs in the 1.0+ range.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Driving on the limit 😅😅😃 Well on the tires, I’m already driving semi slicks so nothing better there, a different chassis/suspension would bring an improvement 👍

[@achristian7015]

@@NordschleifeTypeR Yes, I later noticed your reply about the Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Yes I can see you slightly see-sawing the steering wheel in some corners as if you are on ice. I was on both Eagles and P-Zero in a 992 and I was amazed that I was pulling a max of 1.3G on street tires, but that based on the Porsche G meter that comes with the vehicle...not sure how accurate it is. I have the Pilot Sport on my 993. Great tires.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

@@achristian7015 The G-forces are really incredible 😁 I’ve previously also tried Toto R888 but they are undriveable when it rains, so Michelin is the best mix, never tried Pirelli but they must also be great 😀 993 is also a fantastic car 👌
