Wide & BOOSTED Subaru Justy Goes Ps Ps on the Nürburgring!

Suzuki Swift GTI with AWD

[@Blasterxp]

Aaaaah yes mk3, correct?

[@vanclyde]

I'm a pretty knowledgeable car guy (although i'm Canadian) but never, ever thought the swift gti came in 4wd as a Justy. We've only got the first gen here.

[@RicardoPestana]

+ turbo

[@hbsupermage]

​@@vanclyde it actually didnt, sure, that justy is just a rebadged suzuki swift/cultus, but it never came with the G13B engine from the GTI(DOHC 16 valve 8krpm 100+hp etc), nor the suspension, or brakes, swaybars, etc, just came with the standard G13BA (SOHC 8valve 70 something hp) but it added the AWD with viscous clutch to it (which the suzuki did not) but swaps are quite straightforward

[@seventhson3228]

[@beatbox_one_and_two4462]

This is such a sick build, and misha drove like a boss as always

[@scottjacobsen2889]

I had an all blacked out de badged GTI when I was 18, way back in 1990. I absolutely LOVED that little car. I bought it at a Ferrari dealership. Flat out it did 188km/h.

[@AlbertLamarque]

Sympathies from a former Swift and WagonR+ owner. Drove the hell out of the latter all the way to where aerodynamics define the limit. You dont find many good 1.3l manuals anymore. Nice one to keep the G13 in! Perception of speed > actual speed.

[@nahuesonnen3178]

Great car and great ride, I have a Cultus GTI with almost 130 horsepower and it is very exciting with its 1300cc and approximate weight of 750kg, a car that with little preparation can be a great rival and very fun.

[@davidec350]

The Suzuki Swift Gti 1300 cc engine with 101 HP reaches 8,000 RPM in stock form.

[@malvage0]

The 101hp G13B for the international market redlines at 7500rpm in stock form, but produces peak power at between 6500-7000rpm. It's the Japan-only G13K that is the same engine but factory cammed that revs to 8600rpm making 115-118hp in stock form

[@boronat1]

misha is driving for sure fast, but not at the machine limits, there is no need of also in a borrowed car , you can see him with other confident cars going harder cuz they are less risky or he is living it (like some vids on those m1 m2 etc bmw ones)

[@Animal_lives_matter]

are you being sarcastic? he is driving incredibly slow, i had to close the video after a couple minutes i got so bored. i'm not exaggerating, he really is driving so slowly and i am surprised that you cannot tell, that's why i'm wondering if you're being sarcastic?

[@BaldHeadedManc]

​@@Animal_lives_matterYou understand people have different perspectives.. on things like speed, and EVERYTHING ELSE😂🤦🏼‍♂️

[@Oboro_Clam_Chowder]

As he mentioned he didn't really trust the brakes so he can't really boot it in most areas having to brake much much sooner, as well as the tires he mentioned were "good enough" so he was just taking it easy for the most part, so to the car's limits would not have been possible under these circumstances anyways being held back in multiple ways. I'm sure the "strange" noises coming out of it contributed to that as well 😅

[@kopasznyaku]

And as with motorsports: sometimes over the limit. Stay alive Misha :)

[@xXxDeamonlordxXx]

You know what i love about these cars? You don´t need the fastest car to have the most fun with it. In fact, you spent more time wrestling it on the track so its effectively more fun per euro driving a slow car fast, then driving a fast car slow^^

[@80a7x]

Amazing lap! It's so much more enjoyable and exciting whenever you take a well set up affordable car , I feel like as an enthusiast , it is a more attainable project car , rather than a crazy expensive Italian super car.

[@tnmrvc]

yes always

[@CoolTI-Daniel]

I had to Wikipedia this as I got confused seeing the body... In North America, the Subaru Justy is a small budget Subaru and has 0 resemblance to the swift. But at 1994 it looks like Subaru sold the Suzuki Swift as rebadged as a Subaru Justy... and somehow added AWD? I learn new things every day... but all in all, 180HP on that would certainly be scary fast.

[@ThePontiacgto65]

It looks more like a Suzuki Swift and it has a Suzuki engine, then it can be badged subaru in different country but it's Suzuki 99%

[@Hoopty91]

​@@ThePontiacgto65 could be like Ford handing of the ranger to Mazda in 04 to protect sales of the F150.. The Mazda B series is literally a rebadged Ford Ranger~ 😅

[@nielsdebakker3283]

There are actually a lot of small japanese awd cars. The daihatsu charade G102 1.3 txf for instance. I know the model charade 102 was sold in the usa but i think only with the 1.0 NA engine.

[@romka_ind]

That's a rebaged Swift. There were awd models and plenty of rebadged variants.

[@feenyx6394]

What a wicked little car! I once had a Polo G40 (Coupe, not steilheck) that was built/tuned to about 160whp, and I think that weighed about 810kg. That thing was an absolute riot to drive, and you're telling me this Justy is even quicker!? Madness, of the very best kind :D This is my favourite kind of build, I think.

[@mworld]

There is a car I'm not sure you have driven around there yet. Perhaps because it was not sold there much. Toyota Seca twin cam 16 (86/87) with the large heads. 2nd gear is 100kph, 3rd is 140, 4th is off the clock and 5th is who knows. Red line is 7600. Torque is mostly above 4500, so it's a top end power engine. Not the most powerful etc, but fun. From the looks of the Subaru performance, it would give it a run for it's money but with no turbo required.

[@DreuScuhDoo]

Is this like a geo metro in America? As a kid in the early 2000s I'd only ever see these in scrapyards or rusted out on the roads with 300,000+ miles

[@frankrault3190]

Yes. However, I believe the Geo Metro was only a front wheel driven car. The Subaru version of it is 4 wheel driven

[@Dec-mc]

Mine did 500k miles before the bearings crapped themselves every zero on the milage counter was slightly turned because it had flicked over at 99000 miles

[@davidhocevar8510]

used to have swift GTi from 2000 to 2003.... my god what a car lol... those 1.3 engines were insanely reliable, mine did over 400.000km... and it lived on redline...

[@sharkeyist]

Here in 🇬🇧, my mate had a justy, i had a 1.3 swift, we never did it, but we are pretty sure the swift gearing will go in the justy box to give a better top speed/higher 5th. The diff ratios are different swift to justy (if i remember rightly) but we never figured out a higher rear diff to match, to go that way. Dont quote me, it was 20yr ago.

[@mzackdeux]

Looks real fun to drive. Real smooth driving!

[@pauls.8748]

never heard of a subaru justy...have seen this car on those find yourself nürburgring videos and was certain this was a swift gti...did subaru and suzuki partner up and make the same car under diffrent names like toyota and subaru did with the brz/gt86 or whats going on here!?! anyway learned something new today... loved the swift gti...fun, light, fast and reliable little hot hatch...was the second car i ever owned back in 2000...drove it like a rental and over 200,000 km on the clock without ever having any issues with it. they just don´t make cars like they used to anymore!

Is the speedo correct?

[@rallyefilmer]

I guess no, it shows slower because of the big wheels.

[@SilvaDreams]

With the larger wheels unless he properly upgraded the speedo reader in the transmission than I'd say no. With the age of the car it's likely a mechanical one, unlike more modern cars which use an electronic version that picks up via a magnet so can be adjusted for tire size

[@the_nondrive_side]

I had many Suzuki Swift. An oddity I had was a Sedan with DOHC 1.6 5 speed IIRC it was a 1992. Kept the front end when it rusted too much in the rear and swapped into an oil burner auto 1.3 1999 body.

[@alessandrocomis420]

How have you installed the coil on plug? How do you manage to make the transmission support the nm? I'm doing a similar project but I'm kind of stuck.

[@redvivid]

Pops on acceleration in crazy lol

[@travisyayes6343]

Yeah, that was a little confusing. I was honestly hoping it was the suspension knocking rather than a backfire while accelerating. In my experience, that's not a good thing.

[@yannicg]

I wonder if he kept the rear drums or did the disk conversion and if the converted the front setup to the GTi callipers. As for the gearbox, he should really look into swapping from the 86hp gearbox to the 68hp one, misha never even got into 5th gear really and I think it would make it a lot more responsive
