My feelings when I saw the brz😂

🤣😂🤣 you needed an RS

@@NCLme ehhh, it was in my potential list of upgrades from the ST but the Type-R was really just that good.

1000% agree😅

Dude such a great car! Definitely want one now😂

@@BenLovrien hop the wave with me and let’s get a 11th Gen Type R!

Hahaha I appreciate you😂

He’s a great guy! Very lucky to get to know him

Don’t be. It feels like any other car. 🙄

You’re right, I probably would have had just as much fun in a Sentra😂

@@BenLovrien the altima would’ve hit different 🤣

Well i took this personally ): ​ Currently driving a sentra looking at ST's... lol @BenLovrien

I’m sorry😭😂

that's what happens when you put racing pads to drive on the road. They are designed to withstand a lot of heat and abuse, so they are larger and really hard thus more friction but also put more strain on the rotors.

He tracks the car often so I think he might need the race pads too.

stock brakes pad don't squeak like that thankfully.

No I am😂

An si is an si. A type r is a type r. Regardless of power. But building an si with the price difference of the type r, you can be much stronger.

You not gonna wait for the 2022?

You should definitely look into the focus st line because they are a little bit cheaper and are absolutely amazing fun to drive I’m telling from personal experience. I’ve had my 2017 focus st for about 2 years now and it has never had any issues and is just an all around reliable and fun car def worth looking at

Funny cause that’s exactly what I own right now. 2013 Focus ST, I love it

look into the GR Corolla...thats gonna be a fun little beast!

@@MiguelGarcia-cq3il still gonna be a 45k car.

@@derekgardin1512 u might be right ): we’ll have to see. I know that the mark up is gonna be insane on them tho.

If you ever drive an R, you will completely forget about its looks. Coming from a BRZ...

@@jpxmodz Thx. I'm waiting for the new Toyota GR Corolla to come out. I've seen to Euro two door version and it's incredible on the track, chasing Porsche's down the track.

@@michelfortier9563 that’s called the yaris it’s down to 250 hp though

@@michelfortier9563 Yes I love the exterior styling of the new GR even over the Type R. I would be leaning towards the Circuit Edition when it eventually arrives

I am Shane from weeds

Race pads

The race pads need to heat up before the get super sticky and quiet down. Usually you don't want race pads on a daily, as the pads don't grip as well unless you are constantly getting on the brakes which you normally don't do for a daily. He did say he wanted to put street pads back on in the video.

Type r for me

Elantra N

Noooo no no I’m keepin the brz😂

😂😂

Lol right !? 😆

Damn I didn’t know that’s really a thing😂😂

For save fuel is ok, but should be always on gear to don't cook the brakes😂

@@MiataND3 use more fuel doing this. A very very small amount, but still. If you leave it in gear with the throttle closed, no fuel goes into the engine. If you let it idle, some fuel is used.

@@BenLovrien it's really an American thing, I see it in sooo many videos. Tbh it is poor technique. Leave it in a gear always, except when you're stopped. Then into neutral, clutch up.

The transmission isn’t aftermarket it’s the shifter assembly, hybrid Racing and Accuity instruments has a kit for the Type R. Also the second gear grind is a trait in Honda transmissions cause of the synchros that Honda uses

@@kidstarr100 hey if the guys got money to burn then that's cool. And yeah I meant the shifter assembly but I wrote transmission. Point is that I've driven my buddies type R many times and he's got a few simple bolt-ons like an intake and turbo back exhaust since the type R really sounds like nothing stock.... But I've driven it dozens of times for many hours and there has never been any type of grinding in second or any gear. In fact, I have driven 992 Porsche 911 manuals, which are generally considered the best manuals out there and the stock type R shifter was right up there with it if not even better. Every other manual I've ever driven in comparison to the type R feels long and vague and rubbery. All I'm saying is that I couldn't imagine that shifter being any better than it was from the factory. Especially when it's aftermarket, because then you get aftermarket reliability. Regardless how great those two companies you mentioned are. This is my personal opinion and I think it's completely silly to even touch one of the greatest manual shifters of all time.

2nd gear grind is basically non existent in 20/21 models of the FK8. 99% of the time if it ever occurs (rare) it's going to be driver error. There are basically 2 versions of this car and it's not spoken about enough.. the 20/21 are the perfected FK8s

@@cognitivedissonance5774 yeah the refreshed fk8s are better. Look better too
