1. 0:08Welcome to Hot-Version.
2. 0:10- What we have today is, - Hum.
3. 0:11Tuned cars battle.
4. 0:14Hum.
5. 0:15with these members.
6. 0:17- Here we welcome, BMW works driver. - Yes, we should.
7. 0:20- A works driver comes around. - Yes.
8. 0:22And we have Mr.Gamou sent by Bridgestone.
9. 0:25Yes, he is. Do you know him well?
10. 0:27Of course, Gamou drives black BENZ at the race.
11. 0:29Yes, he's the one.
12. 0:30Yeah, I know.
13. 0:31Well, thanks for having me here.
14. 0:32And I know he's one of the fastest.
15. 0:34Gamou, do you really know Hot-Version?
16. 0:36Oh, of course yes. I've been watching this since I was just a kid.
17. 0:39It was VHS, I remember.
18. 0:41I watched that when I was a kid, all right?
19. 0:42No, you didn't, no.
20. 0:45OK, what sort of battle is it?
21. 0:49Today, Yaris vs. Civic battle is waiting for us.
22. 0:53Hum.
23. 0:55Yaris vs. Civic.
24. 0:56Yes, very fast cars.
25. 1:00Sensation?
26. 1:01People are wondering to know which is faster,
27. 1:04Even both of them can hit 1 minute.
28. 1:07- Minute breaker. - Yes.
29. 1:08Cars getting attention from car enthusiasts.
30. 1:13I see.
31. 1:14- We brought them today, - Hum,
32. 1:16We test them here, time attack and battle session.
33. 1:20Gamou, are you ready for our battle?
34. 1:21Oh, dear, this is my very first time here.
35. 1:23But there is no dangerous driver today.
36. 1:26Ah, well, it seems OK.
37. 1:28Yes, it should be OK.
38. 1:29Yes, he is.
39. 1:30Indeed.
40. 1:32I've been watching his race for years, he's never shown nasty driving
41. 1:35Yes, that is Gamou.
42. 1:36That is why he's OK.
43. 1:37- I assume that is why he can be with us, Hot-Version. - Yes, yes.
44. 1:39Anyone who's shown dirty driving can never is allowed to appear Hot-Version.
45. 1:41Thank you.
46. 1:42- Hot-Version is strict program. - Strict...
47. 1:44Yes, why not.
48. 1:45Hot-Version only has drivers who show clean & exciting battle.
49. 1:51If my memory is correct, I saw many risky battles on Best Motoring.
50. 1:55The old man?
51. 1:56Oh, dear. OK, shall we continue?
52. 1:57Yes.
53. 1:58OK, this is today's issue.
54. 2:00Let's start.
55. 2:03J's Racing, Seeker, BOSS and Revolution.
56. 2:094 tuning cars are gathered.
57. 2:11Civic type R vs. GR Yaris.
58. 2:16<We will have some matters later.>
59. 2:19J's Racing Civic type R FK8
60. 2:26To be honest, we woke this car up from long sleep, for a couple of years.
61. 2:31Since then we developed and installed big turbine kit with certain engine management setup.
62. 2:38Now it expels 420ps with 1.0 coefficient factor.
63. 2:43I hope its suspension transfers such power properly.
64. 2:49Besides, this car has so well controllability, our car is good at that basically since Civic has moderate character.
65. 2:59I say this is controllable car, indeed.
66. 3:16TSUKUBA is under good condition in both temperature and surface.
67. 3:20<Weather : Fine Temperature : 6.8 Celsius deg. Humidity : 31% Surface : Dry Surface Temp. : 18.5 Celsius deg.>
68. 3:22J's Racing FK8, let's see how it goes.
69. 3:26How fast is this babe?
70. 3:29OK, I'm on J's FK8, 420ps,
71. 3:341350kg weigh.
72. 3:40It's been for a while, FK8.
73. 3:41Recently I've driven new ones so many times.
74. 3:52FK8, what a good car.
75. 4:08DK impression.
76. 4:42Incredible power, 420ps.
77. 5:15I think I made it.
78. 5:17It sometimes needs long brake.
79. 5:22And under steer at final turn.
80. 5:27Well, both happen only at very high-speed criteria.
81. 5:36If you give throttle, car really turns strongly because of diff.
82. 5:44I can't believe this car has 2 years of rest.
83. 5:48This car is so well developed.
84. 5:53- Ah, final turn. - I see, final turn.
85. 5:55Where it loses time.
86. 5:56Final turn and 1st turn.
87. 5:58- Is under steer occurs at 1st turn exit? - Yes.
88. 6:001st turn exit, and final turn after apex, front starts sliding out.
89. 6:05This car is not as bad as Ume-chan tells us.
90. 6:06I was told this car has been loft for a couple of years,
91. 6:10I can't believe that.
92. 6:13I guess this car is stored in good condition,
93. 6:17had good sleep.
94. 6:20Seeker Civic type R FK8
95. 6:27We developed this car with extended concept of stock FK8.
96. 6:31Engine and turbine are kept stock, no weight reduction but only higher boost.
97. 6:39Hope this one is acknowledged as a good example of Light Tuned.
98. 6:44Our trial to break 1 minute at TSUKABA has not succeeded yet, actually it's close but not yet achieved by my driving.
99. 6:54I guess car itself is capable of that if conditions are right, today,
100. 7:01professional driver will take this steering, and good low temperature, hope minute break comes true.
101. 7:08Of course driver has to get used to this car, or matching,
102. 7:12anyway, hope we have good result.
103. 7:24Driver is Ara.
104. 7:273rd gear for all the tight corners, 5th is applied only at back straight.
105. 7:36Water temperature tends to stay high, please give a cool down lap after 2 laps of full attack.
106. 7:42I got it.
107. 7:45This is Civic type R.
108. 7:47FF, I mean Front Driven car with 400ps.
109. 7:50Incredible power.
110. 7:51I can say this is an uncharted territory,
111. 7:54how does it go?
112. 7:55I'll try driving this in good manner, giving a smooth driving.
113. 8:01Ara impression.
114. 8:05How does it behave?
115. 8:07Isn't this incredible, front driven car with 400ps?
116. 8:14Oh, it's got anti-lag.
117. 8:16Yes, it's cool.
118. 8:19Starting with POTENZA RE12D USED.
119. 8:31So cool car, it is.
120. 8:33At this speed, warm up speed range, this car shows pretty neutral feeling.
121. 8:38Rear tires are pre-heated by tire-warmer.
122. 8:49Rear tire temperature does affect performance at this chilly winter season, so tire-warmer really helps driver.
123. 9:15Since this is front driven car, there are unavoidable certain steering kickbacks.
124. 9:25How does it go?
125. 9:27OK, try 2nd gear at tight turn.
126. 9:31What about final turn? 4th gear?
127. 9:37Turns so strongly.
128. 9:46Use engine brake to support turn-in.
129. 9:51Sudden torque delivery leads sideway in front,
130. 10:01so use the tires longitudinal direction.
131. 10:05He chooses 3rd gear for DUNLOP corner.
132. 10:08But, look.
133. 10:12Oh, it's not easy.
134. 10:16OK, take it easy, slow down.
135. 10:18Is this troublesome up shifting to 4th during high-G cornering?
136. 10:28OK, let me give another try.
137. 10:30It was my fault.
138. 10:36Start attack from this point.
139. 10:55Give one-tempo before apply throttle.
140. 11:06Does he change gear properly?
141. 11:14It's not easy changing to 4th.
142. 11:44How is the time?
143. 11:471min01.819sec.
144. 12:02Adjust inflation, and use 3rd gear for next try.
145. 12:11Still getting used to this car.
146. 12:13Sure, of course.
147. 12:13Would you adjust inflation?
148. 12:15Then I 'll try 3rd gear.
149. 12:17It was 2nd gear for tight turns, but next try.
150. 12:20I see.
151. 12:21- Is that OK? - Sure.
152. 12:23Let me adjust tire inflation.
153. 12:24Please.
154. 12:29He says he hasn't got used to the car yet,
155. 12:34hope Mr.Ara get some idea during this short session.
156. 12:42We will put new tires for waiting session that will be a super lap.
157. 13:012nd is better.
158. 13:16Using 2nd gear at tight turns fits my driving style better.
159. 13:24It is able to reduce brake hydraulic pressure and can prevent unexpected device control interference.
160. 13:40Let me practice for a while with 2nd gear.
161. 14:02Reduce brake pressure here,
162. 14:05let vehicle turn well,
163. 14:06give strong traction after a while.
164. 14:13Checkered flag is there,
165. 14:15but I'll stay and practice.
166. 14:43I think I got it.
167. 14:47Seems OK.
168. 14:49It has great potential.
169. 14:52For me, this tells very secure feeling because it has rich road contact, all 4 wheels have.
170. 14:57Some FWD cars have rich contact only in front, but rear.
171. 15:00This car shows very rich contact in all four wheels.
172. 15:02FWD cars have unique behavior that rear-inside wheel lifts up at the middle of cornering just after apex point.
173. 15:14When it happens, electronic device changes brake control instantly,
174. 15:19I guess it is because wise computer judges and change its mode into kind an emergency.
175. 15:32That is why it is hard to make turn as I want to by applying engine braking firmly.
176. 15:39It won't happen under low brake hydraulic pressure,
177. 15:43so try not giving hard brake and trace cornering line precisely to hit a good lap time.
178. 15:523rd gear demands more steering angle, so I'll use 2nd gear for next attack.
179. 15:562nd gear is better for smooth cornering, I mean turn in,
180. 16:01Do you think extend rear rebound stroke worth?
181. 16:04Yes, shall we try?
182. 16:05Yes, of course.
183. 16:06I'll change the set.
184. 16:07Thanks for your help.
185. 16:09Revolution GR Yaris
186. 16:16It can produce 400ps or little more, 70kgm of torque,
187. 16:22but currently boost pressure is lowered due to our further development,
188. 16:27it is now just less than 400ps at 1.8kg/cm2 boost pressure.
189. 16:35Tire is POTNEZA RE12D type A, 265/35R18.
190. 16:43The engine of GT Yaris is very well built so far,
191. 16:46this car itself has operated a few years with 2.0kg/cm2 of boost, recorded 58.1sec here.
192. 16:55Recently we opened engine to install valve spring, we didn't find any sign of problem in its cylinder head.
193. 17:00I have certain opinion against some rumors about GR Yaris has got blind spot in engine.
194. 17:04I would not be easily brown up if it has proper setup, driving, and right engine speed with right boost pressure.
195. 17:16This car has stock engine, stock turbine, just raised boost pressure, that is our way of GR Yaris tuning.
196. 17:30Revolution GR Yaris.
197. 17:32Well, talking about Revolution, you may imagine weight reduction.
198. 17:41Yes, this one has 1ton and 50kg weigh, 200kg lighter GR Yaris.
199. 17:48Let's see how it goes.
200. 17:51NOB impression.
201. 17:58First thing I do,
202. 18:04At very first lap, warm up your tire while preserving it.
203. 18:12And seek for right gear, 2nd or 3rd.
204. 18:20Hum, it seems 3rd gear.
205. 18:29OK, hit it!
206. 18:47Oh? What is that?
207. 18:53It's about brakes.
208. 19:09Revolution GR Yaris fall into trouble during time attack.
209. 19:23What was that?
210. 19:26There was no brake at all.
211. 19:30Even it doesn't have hand brake.
212. 19:34This is from TSUKUBA official surveillance camera.
213. 19:42Crashed into barrier.
214. 19:46This is from another surveillance camera.
215. 19:50NOB removes out crash barrier by himself to bring back the car to pit.
216. 20:02Yes, he succeeded.
217. 20:20You lost brake?
218. 20:21Yes, brake.
219. 20:22Approaching 2nd hairpin, it worked at first, then it's gone.
220. 20:27What?
221. 20:29First brake to reduce speed, that's OK.
222. 20:31Following brake about to steer, brake power was gone.
223. 20:38What is that?
224. 20:40And lever has no response.
225. 20:43Lever?
226. 20:44Oh, I mean hand brake.
227. 20:45I see, it's not connected.
228. 20:46Hand brake didn’t work,
229. 20:47so there were nothing I could do.
230. 20:50Oh, now I see what happened.
231. 20:54- Are you all right? - No hurt?
232. 20:56No injury, no hurt, but,
233. 21:10What actually happened....
234. 21:10Never had such before.
235. 21:13What I want to tell you is,
236. 21:15so scary.
237. 21:18Let's see replay.
238. 21:19Wow, wow, wow,
239. 21:25What is that?????
240. 21:26As NOB explained, there were initial braking force but it lost braking power.
241. 21:34Investigation is now on going.
242. 21:45AUTO PRODUCE BOSS
243. 21:47GR Yaris
244. 21:51As always, our car is no weight reduction, power orientated.
245. 21:58Engine itself is kept stock, combined with FUJITSUBO muffler and catalytic converter, controlled by MOTEC.
246. 22:07Current power is 340ps approx. on DYNOPACK without coefficient factor.
247. 22:14Giant tuning parts companies used to try heavy tuning until it breaks down.
248. 22:20Unfortunately I haven't seen such effort these days, so there is no such information about breakdown limit.
249. 22:25So, I decided to try maximum by us,
250. 22:32hope our car can endure 5 laps battle today.
251. 22:36Actually some engines had some troubles at early stages of tuning,
252. 22:40most of them are caused by wrong setup after swapping to plug-in ECU such as injector timing limiter and so on,
253. 22:47that's what I have heard of.
254. 22:49Our car has been tested quite long mileage with 2.4kg/cm2 of boost pressure of course no trouble experienced.
255. 22:55It seems to me it is time for this to break up.
256. 23:02Yes, for us, every session is valuable experimental opportunity.
257. 23:15Thanks for having me here, precious battle.
258. 23:19I'll try my best, and enjoy this opportunity.
259. 23:24Gamou impression.
260. 23:32Can I make it by just one lap?
261. 24:17Reduce vehicle speed firmly just before clipping point, and start turn with giving throttle gently.
262. 24:25Then you will see strong cornering just like its nose is pulled into inside.
263. 24:33Engine seems very powerful between 4000 and 6000 rpm.
264. 24:43Too late brake, ha, ha.
265. 24:52Time is,
266. 24:531min00.088sec.
267. 25:03You need to put everything you have in just one lap that is true pleasure of time attack.
268. 25:10I know I did too much at final turn.
269. 25:14No, smoke comes out.
270. 25:15Oh, no, BOSS Yaris is in trouble.
271. 25:20BOSS is now out.
272. 25:23Transfer case is cracked and oil comes out.
273. 25:26Too much power?
274. 25:29Or too strong tire grip?
275. 25:32All those give big stress to drive train.
276. 25:35You know, that's what it would be.
277. 25:38Boost up is a practical solution to produce big power from tiny 1.6 liter engine,
278. 25:43but once it gets big power, things start to break up.
279. 25:49This time, transfer is cracked.
280. 25:52It's not just a trouble,
281. 25:56but also precious information we can share that transfer becomes consumable parts if it gets big power.
282. 26:03Now you can produce countermeasure parts.
283. 26:10Or if we can figure out mileage it will break, you can give certain maintenance before it really breaks at the circuit.
284. 26:16Yes, now GR Yaris becomes good tuning development cycle.
285. 26:23Gamou explains tips of TSUKUBA attack on GR Yaris.
286. 26:30Do not try very late brake,
287. 26:32but it is better to gain extra time by using strong 4WD traction, prefer right line to give flat out properly.
288. 26:38So driving line is more like V shape.
289. 26:44At the final turn, does V-shape mean straight into deep inside and turn?
290. 26:48Yes, something likes that.
291. 26:50But I went so far at 2nd attack,
292. 26:54anyway use V-shape line to maximize exit acceleration.
293. 27:02V-shape line for every corner?
294. 27:04Yes, every corner.
295. 27:06For maximum acceleration.
296. 27:07< NOB tries J's Civic! >
297. 27:10OK, J's Racing,
298. 27:13ah, FK8.
299. 27:16Let's see how it goes.
300. 27:26Oh, what a rich road contact!
301. 27:34NOB is about to attack on J's Racing Civic.
302. 27:45Hum, I see that.
303. 27:50I see, it needed long brake at 1st turn.
304. 28:42J's Civic type R
305. 28:44It hits 1min01.667sec.
306. 28:51At braking towards 1st turn, the end of uphill, ABS fail into almost malfunction, it extends braking distance.
307. 29:01I lost some time at very 1st measured lap in fact,
308. 29:06you can avoid that if you try not right-rear tire lift at braking there.
309. 29:12At corners such as 1st turn, 1st and 2nd hairpin don't fit any gear,
310. 29:182nd gear is too short for they, but 3rd gear fall engine speed too low.
311. 29:24It's better use best engine speed there.
312. 29:29Road contact, including tire grip is very strong, but it needs some work for gearings.
313. 29:39Well, lap time is already 1min1sec, I assume it has great performance so far.
314. 29:47Seeker goes to final attack.
315. 29:53It's time to go, with fresh tire.
316. 30:27Isn't it cool how he manages such car?
317. 30:31Ara needs only short time to manage high power FWD car.
318. 30:38But up shifting to 4th gear, it's seems not easy.
319. 31:07Lap time is
320. 31:101min 0.976sec.
321. 31:18Thanks for adjustment, its controllability becomes better.
322. 31:21But there are still some wired behavior left, so next theme for this car would be making drivers' feeling natural.
323. 31:30I know that is not easy however, I believe they can make it and I will see the one next time.
324. 31:40We have developed this car for these 3 years only in our team basically,
325. 31:47there are some points we meant to ignore with excuses such as
326. 31:57"we can't do with latest electronic device interference" and so on.
327. 32:03Mr.Ara picks them up and analyzes them quite logically, such feedbacks are extremely worth,
328. 32:10I understand we need do many works to do, not one.
329. 32:16However, I already have some plan in my mind, well, it may take some time if it needs to produce new parts.
330. 32:28"Yes, this is exactly what I said", I really like to hear that from Mr.Ara after test session if we have chance.
331. 32:36Thanks for this chance today, there are a lot to learn.
332. 32:40I do apologize that we have left FK8 for almost year and a half, so we couldn't finish many things till today.
333. 32:50We found things to do today, we'll make this car a second faster for next chance.
334. 32:58We're closing session today by now.
335. 33:00Where is the battle?
336. 33:02No battle today!
337. 33:03- GR Yaris vs. Civic type R battle, - Yes, yes.
338. 33:08That is today's theme.
339. 33:09Unfortunately we missed some casts,
340. 33:13so no battle today.
341. 33:14- Unexpected survival. - Yes, unfortunately.
342. 33:16Indeed.
343. 33:16- The survivors are Civic. - Civic.
344. 33:18They are.
345. 33:19Many tuners come appears to Hot-Version all or nothing.
346. 33:22Right.
347. 33:22But there are no engine troubles.
348. 33:25- OK, get start conclusion. - Right.
349. 33:26- By introducing time attack result. - Sure.
350. 33:30OK. Taniguchi, in charge of Revolution Yaris.
351. 33:34Hum.
352. 33:35Crashed, before measurement lap.
