Single Turbo VR4

My single turbo VR4.
Back when it was at 9lbs of boost (wastegate). It's now currently at 15.

[@boostpwnsvtech]

one of the nicest sounding vr4's ive heard in a long time..props

[@tokyotopp]

14 years ago this video was uploaded. And I still watch it ❤.

[@3kgtss]

this is everithing i have always wanted., i love the sound and how he just keeps going to high rpm.. its just beautiful

[@TurkishButcher]

I can listen to this all day.

[@justrollin1210]

Sick ride bro!! Black suits the 3000GT the best!! Oh here's a random story to tell but the other day I saw a red 3000GT as a campus patrol car WTF lol

[@arch417powersports]

gosh dam that thing is quick

[@SpeedStik]

Sweet video! Your car sounds really awesome!

[@boost521]

one of the best sounding cars ive heard in a while

[@anthonyboysen2791]

Why are these things so cheap to buy?! When I first started looking at them, I didn't think they'd be any less than $17k. But I've found some for less then $10k. It feels like striking gold.

[@dillanfoster8021]

Just the price our cars are now lol the spyder's are over 10k i've never seen a spyder that wasn't less than 12k, mabye like 3 lol

[@sparky1570784]

i bought my 91 3000gt for 7k in amazing condition.

[@dillanfoster8021]

Just give it a few years when all the bad ones are gone or parted out and nothing but the ones that were actually taken care of are left lol i have 97k miles on my 92 TT. Just parked her to wait till i can slap and antique plate on it.

[@razorsharpswagg7765]

sparky1570784 u should make videos of your 3000gt.

[@sparky1570784]

RazorSharp Swagg went drag racing unexpectedly yesterday (yes legally and at a drag strip) wish i brought my go pro and i would have. i have the gto model with the right hand drive. but yea i definitely will since i am beginning to restore it and get performance parts for it.

[@MrVerruckter]

I drove this car yesterday it was an incredible feeling!!!

[@sk8anddsm]

very nice car, looks great runs even better

[@TheVoid47]

That bov is so indescribably cool.

[@TofuProductionCinema]

great work. clean and not overdone. keep it up.

[@OddBallPerformance]

Beautiful car my friend. This Makes me miss my 97 VR-4 a lot. Have been eyeballing them again, lol. They were my first love, and always will be. I will say this, the Single Turbo cars sound a lot better than the twins hands down. If I ever do get another VR-4, definately going to try the single route.

[@razer440]

Holy Crap!!! that is an awesome car. Sounds awesome too.

[@skylerjarrettyz125]

ahhh i just love the butterfly affect!!!!

[@bayareatech]

where I live there is a similar street with barely any cars at all perfect for this type of runs, Carson City, NV also in Pasadena, Ca ... Great car by the way I just bought my first VR4 its a 96 and have a giant smile on my face every time I look out to see it in my driveway.

[@chevyhs]

The southbend stage 4 is really nice, smooth engagement and not to heavy

[@chevyhs]

Sounds like an HKS bov with a little surging toward the end. DUDE YOUR RIDE ROCKS!!!

[@psychdoggg]

Sick sick sick exhaust!

[@bullideluxe]

damn !!!...great sound....respect

[@touxiong625]

Sick shifting!

[@patrickramdial4669]

That's crazy fast right there!

[@codygoad3970]

Man i sure do miss mine, i wish i had the vr4 but the sl model was still a very fun car to drive! Nice car tho brings back good times!

[@wombatonsteroids]

Sick, sick car.

[@scotty2hottie1234567]

Nice car my friend.. thats some serious power you got under that bonnet, i got the GTO version of your car but its no where near as quick as yours.. Keep up the good work!!

[@JooseyJay]

Oh my fucking god what exhaust is that at 1:10

[@JTrientaYOcho]

ur car sounds like it pulls hard, awesome

[@lildomplaya2]

Nice launch. I'm startin to dig these AWD launches 8)

[@pater429]

Damn what a nice sound

[@DivnaBiH]

i felt like i was playing a grand tourismo game when i was younger :D nice vid.

[@philrilious]

I love it.. thanks man

[@HotHeadCJ]

wicked launch

[@KDD8]

that car is sick

[@xxxplayboy182xxx]

definitley AZ I'm gettin a 93 3000gt base as my first car here soon not quite a vr-4 but I'm lookin forward to it none the less. Nice car bro

[@B3AN40]

nice exhaust

[@Mr97stangGT]

sick car bro

[@misanthropist111]

i wish mine would launch like that. very nice!!

[@dhillskier75]

@corleone171284 and about the internals, the rods are fracture split forged and the crank is solid, along with the piston heads, that engine is good for at least 650-700 on the internals. supras have been documented at 1000hp on stock interanls and the 6g72 in the vr4 was designed to compete.

[@stealthyairsoft996]

love the black

[@dougszakacs376]

I just bought a 95 3000gt sl with the jdm engine with a bad transmission to flip. I love it so much it may be hard to sell

[@JB1263]

I love this exhaust note, what setup are you running?

[@casey7616]

Sounds Nice man!!!

[@pssstttchhh]

This video has the most badass launch on youtube in it

[@wolfzero85]

badass my man

[@romanich12]

wow!!!nice vr-4!!!!

[@Altonbr1]

Beast.

[@kern417]

clean

[@riquelmen90]

Thats a beast

[@93rt]

@ Outspoken: Its not the e-brake handle, its the brake fluid resivoir level sensor. A good launch moves the fluid in the container in such a way that the low level sensor trips, the low brake fluid sensor in 3000's/Stealths is the e-brake light.

[@GTA4fan23]

nice car man respect for the 3000gt

[@Callum027]

Thats the power of 4WD to get all that power down cleanly. =)

[@Shaker1000]

holly shit bad ass launch

[@mrclarkent]

The sound of paradise coming from that wastegate.

[@Wartorment]

Awesome car man, any idea of what you're trapping or how much hp you're putting down?

[@GilBal31]

The first good launch was crazy. Like you were gonna go back in time or some shit.

[@kandypaintedGTP]

Sweet car. Its mitsus version of the 4th gen trans am. All they needed were ttops or a targa.

[@JTrientaYOcho]

@yamahaphazergt galant vr4 was around before 3kgt, its a 6th gen galant with a 4g63-t motor. Vr4 stands for the drive train platform, both 6th gen galant vr4 and 3kgt vr4 were awd.

[@supersayin1]

Jeeze thats quick!

[@kenho3j0k3r]

nice launch bro that shit was flying

[@Atr0sity]

stock vr4 boost is at 12 psi but coming out of the factory rich, allowing you to turn up the boost safely to 14

[@KreatorOfDeath1985]

Thats pretty good

[@MartialDuartist]

DAAAAYUM :D That launch was sick.

[@DanielGonzzz]

MartialDuartist thanks man, still miss her. That’s my old car and KZbin account.

[@mateuscapuera]

nice car man

[@spoolinpos]

Sounds good, what turbo did you go with?

[@suprakilla2JZ]

nice riding of the clutch... and nice compressor surge. bye bye turbo and clutch xD

[@kwakes212]

Very cool

[@Redfeather80]

2nd GEAR last sofa king LOOONG!! lol i love it.

[@DanielGonzzz]

The 6 speed trannys had long gears and the earlier 91-93 5 speeds had even longer ratios! My 6 speed hit 70-72mph at the top of 2nd, about 110-115mph at the top of 3rd, 140-145'ish at the top of 4th, and 5th I never wound out completely but hit 170mph according to the speedo. I believe someone drew out the theoretical speed-per-gear chart that predicted 6th speed at redline would be topping out at 240mph, hard to recall exactly since that was about 10-15 years ago on the 3si.org forums.

[@winkdogydog101]

@blown0883 hell yes these cars came out in 90s when rx7,fairlady z, supra came out they are all tt and pretty bad ass. but side of the rx7 which this is up for debate the vr4 is one of the best handling cars for the money plus they are half the cost of a rx7 now adays

[@DJMATRIXVIDEOBLENDZ]

What wastegate brand you get? Sounds awesome!

[@3kgt4life]

lilmarv08: It is not the engine you have to worry about when launching it that hard it is the transmission/transfer case that it puts a lot of stress on. BTW, great video!

[@positech123]

Man, those cars have some long legs!

[@NowTrending-Today]

@maubanampon single turbo.. u can pay an arm in a leg for an ips or hav a custom manifold built ect.

[@SoulSprayPaint]

Cheap to buy expensive to fix

[@TempoMontages]

+Xavier Myers they are pretty cheap to fix just time consuming

[@bmgtz]

like the sound

[@zachmiller3217]

What set up do you have for the exhaust on that thing

[@aaa7z5]

Sweet! What are the specs on your VR4? You have an intercooler?

[@ShakaAantoine]

Not so sure I saw the answer to this question so I'll ask. What turbo manifold was used?

[@jlcabc2]

just curious at what rpm do you usually launch at?

[@dhillskier75]

@corleone171284 he put that to the wheels, so its about 400 at the crank. his clutch lasted 10k miles before he replaced as a precaution and he was not scared to launch it

[@alt0232]

kool car man im getting one soon manual. it is 5speed manual right?

[@rambow70]

what turbo are you using? i have an sl and im going to go with single over twin

[@lilmarv08]

@superinflamo what type of mani you using?turbo?

[@DaBomb31290]

Got a question for you. At 2:09-2:17 when you're about to launch, you're doing something with the handbrake. I noticed my friend does something similar before he launches his RX-7. Are you taking up slack in the drivetrain?

[@MainlyOwned]

What makes that sound when your shifting and/or letting off the gas. and how much?

[@streetracer4688]

how much faster is the car at 15psi than 9psi? in the vid you looked pretty quick but how much of a difference did the extra 6psi make? im thinking about ditching my 13T's for a single turbo borg warner s475...

[@JORORSA]

ey man, what exhaust sytem you have?? it sound sick!!

[@v2mmxst10]

Stock waste-gate duty cycle is load-based, so it will fluctuate depending on ambient conditions. That's why every VR4 seems to have different boost when stock. Under typical conditions 1st Gens (91-93) push ~10psi, while 2nd Gens (94-99) push ~12psi. 14's a bit on the high-side though... lol, maybe he lives in the mountains and it's 110 degrees?

[@whyjay12]

Dream car

[@shnoopydoopy6707]

I know I think ill get one for my first car.

[@RealLeskot]

@@shnoopydoopy6707 They aren´t even that expensive atm. Your dream car is in your reach guys, go for it! (y) :)

[@JulianVR4]

BWAAHAHAHA BEAT THAT DRIVETRAIN TO WITHIN AN INCH OF IT'S LIFE!! GOGOGOGO!!! your car sounds awesome, bro! Your video made me smile

[@boostedpsi99]

clutch engaged and then zooom GOONE!!!

[@5taytuned550]

props forreals

[@Turbonos23]

Jesus! really fast car! how much hp you running?

[@ShamanNoodles]

Is a single turbo preferable over twin? Is it for a bigger horsepower than torque number?

[@amiaredneck]

sick!

[@blackBLUR89]

@malaiki88 wow thats alot of animosity my guy! you alrite? take a deep breath and count to ten....and wut do you drive by the way?

[@suzettesbeautyblog]

Stopping at a green light is smart...!

[@zonda2003]

What kind of exhaust are you running? I'm building my 95 vr4 and about to change the exhaust.

[@s5pitfire]

very nice VR4.... but yeah I second that, you're gonna blow stuff up eventually. Sure taking a lot of abuse... but the car sounds sooo good. BOV sound is very nice

[@fastcarss19]

well im not the best but im mostly on my own around here when it comes to that stuff.. i learn from watching vids and reading blogs mostly. and input from guys like your self... even our mech shops are pointless in my area lol... ill look into it tho thanks...
