@:53 i hear and see what seems to be transmission slipping. Almost every automatic gt86 i drive and see seems to slip gear very slightly on upshift. Normal or problem?? thanks. Completely stock engine? Final drive ratio seems too tall. good video :)
I think you're right, they all slip a tiny bit, but it's very minor and I don't really notice it in terms of performance. The final drive is indeed taller (4.1 -> 4.556), but as you may know the AT cars have longer gearing than the MTs, and this ratio brings gears 1 - 3 back in line with the MT cars 👍 On the motorway, I can do 70mph at 2500rpm exactly, so it's a good ratio I think.
That is AWESOME. I really appreciate your channel and videos. I am going to get a GR86 to daily and track, and I've been worried about which trans to get. I love manuals but my hip/knee/back problems make me want a good paddle shift car.
Thanks man, and I totally understand where you’re coming from - I chose an auto as the car is also my daily, and I live pretty central in London where traffic is stop-start all the time… having an auto has saved my knee!
The shift-pops are from the ECU cutting fuel (when shifting) which is standard on the automatic cars, as unlike a manual you don’t lift off when changing gears. You can hear the same shift-pops in this clip of someone else’s car (@1.18): ruclips.net/video/FEYas0NtAJE/видео.html
@@ago6211 the pops are possibly a bit “exaggerated” in some of my footage, as I use an external microphone placed on the rear bumper ~30cm away from the exhaust. As for what it sounds like inside the car, here’s a recent clip without the external mic: ruclips.net/video/j8PoOVbN_tQ/видео.html
Hey Ivan, I’m running 5w-30 Fuchs Titan Race Pro S and the car is also fitted with the below oil-related mods: • Cusco “Forester style” oil cooler • Cosworth sump baffle • Killer B Motorsport oil pickup
What is it that you don’t understand? The car is still fun to drive changing gears with the flappy paddles - unless you’re just being a troll and bashing autos generally...
Don’t think you’ve ever driven one but go on😂 focus on yourself first before talking about others choices. If he likes it and that’s what he wants due to other circumstances who are you to talk 🤦♂️
@@adamali4948 maybe I should correct myself and ask why would anyone take an automatic to a track... Its like Go Karting for kids, just brake and throttle, fun sure but such a waste..
The first time I’ve seen a video that shows the pops when shifting clearly. My favorite part about the automatic variant. Still a blast to drive.
can you give an updated mod list? ive noticed some changes on the car and i must say im intrested
Cool
Impressive automatic gearbox 👍🏼
Could you give me the information of exhaust system on your gt86?
Sounds very good!!

I loved the commentary just saying
Great video! How long does it take to do a lap? I really fancy one of these cars.
Thanks! Looking at the footage, I was averaging around 1:40 a lap which is so-so.

@@3782MC Cool thanks! I'm looking at a automatic turbo frs to buy currently!!
Are you manually shifting throughout this video?
I am indeed, as a general rule I only use “full auto” on the road (in stop-start traffic), since this is also my daily driver.

does it auto upshift in manual mode?
Not at all, you can hold the revs for as long as you want in manual mode 👍🏼
What did you do to get those nice shift-pops?

@@3782MC I have an automatic with the OFT Stage 2+ UEL tune (UEL headers too) but it doesn't seem to do it like yours.

Any oil modifications? Viscosity or cooling?

@@3782MC Excellent. Thank you for the reply. Love your videos.
I don't understand why would anyone get this in automatic and take it to a track...

Doesn't matter whether you understand or not. It's his car, not yours.
