there is just something therapeutic about watching Misha drive a car around the Nordschleife. I dont know why its just nice watching at the end of a day.
In the US there are lots of engine failures on track due to oil pressure loss. Even baffled pans don't seem to help. Hope that won't happen to this car. Good videos about it on the channel brz900.
is it really fair to say lots? you'd have to know how many are being tracked, how many confirmed blown from low oil pressure, mods, maintenance etc. yes 900brz has done some great work and I hope there's a solution soon for 0% failure rate but the car is just an affordable subaru, already maxed out from the factory with it's stock suspension/brakes/wheels/tires setup. what other $30K RWD 228hp 2800lbs NA new production vehicle can withstand driving 9/10 on track repeatedly? miata maybe?
7/10 needs more scrape. Seriously though :), 8min with passenger and without trying, that's not too shabby. Camber isn't maxed out yet, is it? Surprised how well this takes the curbs. And I'm curious how much power the remap gets you.
I think we are on the max, and yes suspension is amazing. I'm actually surprised and disappointed that I can't get the wheels in the air when going over curbs haha
@@mgcharoudin weird, would have figured it to have yet more turn-in with maxed out camber. But maybe you were just going easy on it. In the context of this car & modding, this should be worth your time - objective (blind tested, w/ laptimes) comparison of 5 current semis, including the AR-1; worth watching the whole thing, but short conclusion is at 31:30: ruclips.net/video/klSmFfLSReg/видео.html
Misha when you drive, you always look like you're on a mission & Megi always seems like no matter what she is with you, regardless of the situation. You 2 are perfect together & ending the video with saying you love each other is perfect.🥰🥰🥰
I feel that every lap you do is great, I learn a lot about driving and how to take corners by watching your videos. I also really appreciate that you use the different cameras to show what you are doing at each point of the turn and before the turns. That you know this track so well is a blessing and every time I see a video I begin to memorize and and more! thank you again!
Holy F! The turn in and grip in general are so different from stock. Also the body control with the Bilstein setup is amazing. Just like a racecar. Soaking up the bumps with little to no lean in the corners. Just amazing to watch the difference 😱😍
4:18 I would recommend getting a ''ings'' (japanese company) N spec R front bumper. It has a big mouth for cooling and built in canards/ lip that will never fall off Their whole kit for the car is actually great, vented fenders, vented hood, vented rear bumper ( for rear tyre heat) along with a large wing, similar style to what you have put on now. The whole kit is 3500-4500usd which is quite alot but no one else on youtube has it so it could help bring more views to channel for this car and the eventual giveaway
The car is shaping up to be a wonderful track tool. Very well done 🎉🎉 When will Megi do a lap in the GR86? That would great to see before you give it away.
LOL @ the comment @ ~3:47. If she never fakes it, then she sure is enjoying the ride! Take that comment however you wish! 🤣 Loving the progress on the car!
Fingers crossed that the FA24 holds up for you. Quite a bit of telemetry documented on oiling pressure/flow and starvation in track use leading to blown motors - premature rod bearing wear.
APEX actually did one a few years ago! Nearly this same recipe and it worked great then. I think it was done in maybe 2018? There are plenty of videos on it here.
Ahhhh, just wait untill the end ❤❤😂. The car looks like more fun then the first run on the ring. The one that wins this car, could never say it has been driven by an old lady ;)
Hah, new subscriber and I was just thinking, who is this woman hopping in with Misha? Wait....she isn't flinching around the corners...she likes cars...they're laughing... phew! It's his wife. Love it! 😃
If the car is slanted towards the front, that creates downforce, I believe its called "Rake" F1 cars do it. Im sure you know that, but thought id suggest it. Maybe raise the rear slightly, or just fit some fancy splitter. 👍
Oh man, I would really love to see you interview Sreten…or just do a video of you guys just shooting the bull over a drink (like with that phantom of Apex, Robert 😊). Always great to see Megi regardless of the venue and good lap! Cheers, 🖖😎👍
Waaao! What a FANTASTIC LAP! 😳😳🔥 the car “felt” really good as well! Awesome lap👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Nicely done! Iong time viewer! But i guess you already know that! 😂😂 WHAT A LAP!!!
Def needs a remap to get rid of the bit of rev hang and maybe 5mm more ride height. Not sure about the lsd though, there’s not enough torque with the sticky rubber to make a difference.
Nice lap mate🔥 Misha, I don't know if it will be posible for you to drive a Mitsubishi Legnum VR-4, the station wagon, the one with a twin turbo V6👀 it will be sick 🙌🏻
That was last Wednesday right? The car looked stunning with the rear wing. Also so sweat to see you two together. Really chemistry between the two of you. Jimmy in the Porsche I saw at the gas station. I was so surprised, that I couldn’t find the courage to say hello. Hopefully next time I will 😅😅
I think you can do something different than a splitter. Try a set of canards and hood vent. That will reduce the air trapped in the hood as you know and not create additional drag. We love but not as much as you, so let's keep her safe mr speedy. She needs a helmet that fits properly.
Could you name me your TÜV Prüfer? With that amount of scraping 😬😜 Just kidding 🤣 Nice lap as always Misha! Great that your wife to be shares the same passion 😎🙂💪🏻
I can't explain how many people I've had in mine (BRZ) who have been amazed at how fast it is (I guess they assume it's got Corolla power or something based on how much people belittle the power online 😂)
Thanks for the input, I only ever drove the automatic BRZ, which I think has less aggressive gearing, and it wasn't bad at all! This said I can't stop wondering what categories of cars a supercharger would put the GR86 against on an average track. With maybe 300whp at a weight of 2900lbs and that lovely stiff chassis on some sticky tires. Maybe Mustang GT PP? Cayman? What do you think? @@MKu64
@@Mehdi-tq9ps It's hard to say and the reason for me is that the gearing in this car is near perfect for the current level of power IMO. For example, if you had more power, it could use a taller first gear as it hits the top of first pretty quick as it is. So adding more power might still leave it restricted in some gears - HOWEVER - I say this having never maxed out 5th (or 6th) gear yet on a track, so hard to say. I'd think it's probably going to smash them around corners even without the blower, so it would really depend on the type of track.
even if i don't win it(i hope i do), it has been a great series of videos, watching the GR86 and Misha get better lap by lap. ofc Misha you dont have a lot to improove since you're driving on a racecar driver level...
Got a gt86 and people say they are i slow and if your drag racing yeah but on the limit they fly id like a go in the newer gr86 to see if that 2.4 makes much more of the chassis and its upgrades. The engine was always the weak point for me not the chassis especially with good suspension.

A lap with Meggi is always a nice lap… looks like the car is benefiting quite a lot from those mods, nice job !!
What a great girl he's got! She's a nice personality in the videos too.
Going out for laps instead of fancy dinner, that's a thumbs up from me.

Epic drive from you, as always. The GR86 is getting better with every update!
Did you drove Sreten's E39?
We need more track days with Meggi.

You two always brighten my day! It's so nice seeing a real life nice relationship combined with fab cars and my favourite track! 🥰
I knew Maggie was the one for you when she didn't even flinch at some of the crazy laps in other videos, love it!!
The car is shaping up to be a wonderful track tool. Very well done 🎉🎉
When will Megi do a lap in the GR86? That would great to see before you give it away.
I hope she will, but I ain't forcing her to! :)
What an amazing track day car, really good work, I already drove a stock GT86 on a little track and there is nothing about yours. Great job Micha
love how skills and a half ok car can keep up with a car double the hp.. love the trips on the Nord Misha
Love seeing ur face light up misha talking and having a fun time w meg! Stay blessed love from california
ok NOW it's ready for a 50-100hp upgrade :P
I only have driven an stock standard 86 on the road, I can't imagine how much fun this one would be!
On the downhill ,When power isn’t an issue This thing is very quick and handles beautifully 😉
Brilliant driving as always
Meggi stunning as always 👍

Would love to see a first gen BRZ/86 built as well. Great lap, hopefully you get to stay away from any oil issues like we’re having here.
APEX actually did one a few years ago! Nearly this same recipe and it worked great then. I think it was done in maybe 2018? There are plenty of videos on it here.
Already done that 6 years ago :)
Maybe Misha should find one with a blown engine and K swap it.
@@mgcharoudin damn guess I gotta go find those videos
Nice lap Misha. The GR86 is coming along nicely. That heel n toe action of yours is something else.
Jimmer in the Porsche 😄 great content and car's great! Best couple too happy for ya man 💪🏻
This is the first car as far as I can remember that went over 100kmh through Ex-mühle and Bergwerk. Nice work, Misha
Quick through Karoussel too
wonderful lap Misha.
0:48 Sreten's E39 lurking around :D
Great lap once again! Looks like 86 has turned into track weapon, love what you have done for my future car :D
I'd get tired of that upshift indicator real quick lol! Nice lap Misha
haha yea it's pretty handy actually (have the BRZ) can just turn it off or raise it to redline if you want though
5:05 get 400z, it drops by the end of this year, so you will have something to take care of through the winter :)
Don’t know what I’m more jealous of, the car or the girl
👍
Ahhhh, just wait untill the end ❤❤😂.
The car looks like more fun then the first run on the ring.
The one that wins this car, could never say it has been driven by an old lady ;)
The "cameo" appearance from Maro Engel😂
Proper sent on the lap
7:00 Meggi's like hmmm, I like this!
O carro está fabuloso! Este chassis deve ser um sonho, muito bom gosto nos upgrades feitos❤! Grande abraço de Portugal
Crazy he can keep up with a Lotus Emira on the nordschleife. I love this car, I should know, I own one.
Hey, we fit a 1yo in the back and stroller + gorsseries in the trunk. You can definitely fit a dog in the back.
I can't wait to see what the remap and final drive does. Am I the only who gets annoyed by the shift buzzer?
For me it's helpful with the GoPro in front of the speedo
@@mgcharoudin I didn't even consider the go pro, can you turn it off in settings?
@@JC7119 yes you can and also change the RPM level. I like it a lot, eyes on the track and shift by ear.
"Better then BMW?" made me cry laugh. misha you two need a M3T :D it's the new perfect family wagon. it had utility
Wow the cornering on that car is brilliant!
Yea even stock they are great.
My '88 Volvo 245 is also on Bilstein suspension! lol

What you have to say abou tthe new Toyota GR86 vs the regular Subaru BRZ, because they still look the same(power, etc), just a price diference.
Hey, loved the video. She has a good taste in cars ! :)
Great lap, great car, great Meggi.
Ask speedenginering for a splitter. They are developping a fully functinal with TÜV.
What a dream, driving at the ring with meggi
youre right, Sreten brought the wrong car, the E39 is too nice to wreck on the ring, better to take the e60 for that 😅🤣
