Subaru WRX Genting Hill Climb - I Never Expected This Car Could Be This Good! | YS Khong Driving

[@eclcliez]

To those who wondering, subaru have 2 type of CVT which is TR580 (250nm rating )and TR690 (400nm rating). This WRX using TR690 and this is far more superior and it used on those high hp model for subaru.... Anyway most of people will still prefer conventional GB..

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thanks for the input!

[@beaches2mountains230]

Totally agree except I will say when speaking about transmissions it's the torque(ft.lbs/nm) amount you have to consider as your limitations..I've had friends who's tuned up to 450 torque and the cvt trans won't last long at that power level only STI manual trans will hold up perpetually. Cheers. Enjoyed your video !

[@moinhaider1496]

Subaru WRX is one of the most capable cars on the road! Used to own a 2008 5 speed wagon in Canada and it was unbeatable in the rain and snow😊

[@apitzhnu90]

8:53 yesss happens to me when I drove XV in the super heavy rain and wondering why everyone drive so slow. Until I saw one car almost out of control due to aquaplaning and my car stable je across the puddles.

[@superfun88]

Shhhh. Other car are crying 🫣

[@azimshabaruddin4305]

This is Uncle YS best driving for 2024, fun sliding at multiple corners. maybe the slightly wet road condition made it more entertaining 👍👍

[@RohanSanjith]

Great car and you're a excellent driver uncle, fan from India!

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thank you.

[@exandruexandru700]

Awesome driving as usual Uncle! I think it's livelier having a passenger with you, excites us viewers even more with actual reactions on top of that excellent driving skills.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thanks 👍

[@juddosborne305]

In the US we have the WRX “ts “which is a GT with a manual.

[@steve8803]

@juddosborne305 No, it's TR. And it's not the same as the GT. The GT has many more features besides of course the CVT vs 6MT.

[@jasonk.3239]

Love uncle's expression "oh it doesn’t shift up" .. yes, i have been there as well. Prefers the manual shifts than anything else 😅

Should bring in more communicative co-drivers like Justine.

[@yawhongtan]

Hi Uncle YS, how do u compare this WRX to the Civic Type R FL5 , GR Corolla, GT86 and BMW 330i in terms of overall experience? 😊

[@YSKhongDriving]

This makes a better family car

[@ranceng6560]

because cvt vs manual? 😂😂😂 ​@@YSKhongDriving

[@mysixtiestv2974]

Okay, I'm getting a Subaru WRX

[@jeffreymak8955]

Uncle Khong YS I think you can be entered into the Malaysian Book of Records as the driver who has made the most Genting hill climbs. By the way, how many times have you driven up Genting Highlands?

[@oversteer_9339]

The way that thing shifts sounds like a standard DSG from the non performance volkswagen models. Impressive cvt

[@cheuman1]

Notice that Uncle Khong seldom checks what are tire makes and models on his Genting run. A good driver indeed let the set of tires adapt to his drive style than having the driver reconciles to the tires.

[@YSKhongDriving]

A good driver adapts to the car's characteristics. Arrogant drivets demamd that tbe car ahould match his driving style. I ser what the car can do and drive it accordingly, so whayever the tyre may be, doesn't matter - it is whatever that comes with tbe car, and cannot be changed for the drive.

[@azlandin9911]

For me, know what the car can do is more important. For eg, no point putting a race spec sticky car to a stock standard MPV as the whole car is not designed to be driven aggresively. It is more like putting a set of tyre based on vehicle spec, driver behaviour and the usage of the vehicle itself

[@TamWengLoong]

Bro. Uncle can drive the car even with “botak” tires 😂

Hello mate your buddy the late William Mei will luv your presentation,But a Subby no thanks,much prefer the Mitsu EVOs that lurve to eatup Subbys in Rallys all over the world!Great viewing here,kudos!

[@daniel166hue]

Drive both MT and CVT, the MT far more fun and raw. Too bad the MT doesn’t come with adjustable susp and recaro seat the CVT have.

[@YSKhongDriving]

MT is more fun, for sure, but cvt would be a good compromise if you can only have one car, and this cvt is very good.

[@daniel166hue]

@@YSKhongDriving lol yes I agree if you can only have one car I would prefer WRX Wagon ts for sure ;)

[@azmiomar9330]

Yup Subaru WRX😊

[@juddosborne305]

That was a fun video- 275hp is plenty

[@kuroyuki90]

can explain why run on cvt why still has gears and paddle shift?

Latest car today you can save from over torque, skidding, waste HP in a little PS, Brakepad lifespan is longer, fuelconsumptions, etc

[@syedputra5955]

Price wise, same as vw arteon equipped with awd. How does both compare drive wise.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Both are fine except the WRX is a smaller C segment versus D segment for the Arteon.

[@dsleong8328]

the problem with subaru boxer that you want to up the performance ,you need to have the proper supportive mod or else it will just blow up as seen too many cases especially in the US, just tune alone won't do wonders but i still give credit on how good subaru has done to the cvt , the new wagon looks like a promising fun family dad car.

[@beaches2mountains230]

I'm from the US and 90% of the cars that blow up are from improper tuning..this new FA24 is much more stout and not as delicate when compared to the EJ 255/257's.. No matter which platform I would highly suggest an Air Oil Separator which has been proven to improve these cars long term reliability and longevity

[@chao5s]

I wasn't impressed by the CVT on Levorg (1st gen) 2.0T which is now WRX SportsWagon. The car felt heavy and the simulated gears were so fake, also can't get use to the sound of the CVT... I wasn't impressed by the Direct-Shift CVT on TNGA Corolla either (when it was released in Australia I got to drive it for ~3000km), 1 unique thing though - it has a start gear so it starts like a conventional AT and then transitions to CVT.

[@hafidzmohd-b5g]

[@jackham9326]

Great video as usual. The drive looks very harsh and uncomfortable. Is that the case Uncle Khong? And how would you rate it against your Golf R?

[@YSKhongDriving]

The Golf has more power because it has been tweaked a little.

[@jackham9326]

How about the comfort level?

[@hanbenlow7973]

i want this car...but someone persuaded me otherwise. hahahaha

[@AUNTHIAM]

I almost thought that it is a Civic, due to its tail lamp 😁

[@conned]

Coming down is e problem...brake fade

[@YSKhongDriving]

So you need to be judicious with your brakes. This applies to all cars.

[@ezekielk.3629]

The legendary question - Audi Quattro or Subaru AWD ?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Depends on the model and depends on the size of your wallet. Audi RS models are almost of supercar status, whereas this one is more affordable, but still fun.

[@kaisvlog7208]

Theorectically , the subaru awd is relatively more complete or proper awd than the quattro The quattro is an active awd means can disengage unlike the subaru awd is continuous or always-engage so higher fc Subaru awd is more durable , stability and balance for both on and off road Quattro has few category depending which model get different quattro , more focus on road performance ,and to get the best performance say, quattro ultra

[@absolute_abundance]

That CVT is of TOYOTA

[@kaisvlog7208]

Subaru manufactures its own Continuously Variable Transmissions (CVTs) in-house. The company developed its CVT technology, known as Lineartronic, produced at its plant in Gunma, Japan, where the company assembles many of its vehicles.

CVT should not be used in performance cars 😊 The high engine torque will cause premature failure on the belt.

[@GreatGrandmasterWang]

Are you a car engineer?

[@vicyu7607]

Ya . Correct. But subaru is using chain, not belt. Keyboard man.

[@f4rensabri]

Subaru uses chain type CVT, and the other guy said the one in WRX is rated for 600Nm.

Anyway it is stil cvt
