I used to own CR-Z and from my experience no matter how much you spend on the powertrain and suspension, the chassis is not ready for a spirited drive even though from outside it looks like a sport coupe, was very happy to sell it and bought a civic type-r... no more complaint...cheers
Agreed. Once had one crz chasing me on nkve. I was in a 1.6 VW polo sedan and no matter what that crz owner tried to pass me.. just cannot. Even weaving between traffic, ... the VW has a pinch better. Id never buy a crz and spend tons modifying thinking its a typeR car. Its just a mediocre built honda built because they remembered their brilliant little CRX and tried making a newer versi9n
looking at the video I can feel Uncle is struggle with the car haha..the tuner set this car not for touge I think, 3.5k is too late for the boost to kick in for touge, seems like its for high speed on highway maybe...maybe try to set it at lower boost like 1 bar or below see the boost can kick in earlier or not..
regardless of boost setting. The 1.5L engine is just too small to spool td04(assuming single scroll), that is the reason , the engine rpm has to reach 3.5krpm to get positive feedback(onset of positive boost) , td04 is well matched with 2L engine, which turbo spool started around 2300-2400rpm. To compensate for this, you have to change the gear ratio to get a faster response.. JDM spec optimize up to 180km/h , they can do it.. Europe spec with higher top speed will have difficulty to balance this.

Uncle back in action!💪🏻👍🏻
I cant stop laughing when i see owner's reaction during the drive.😂
Owner's face is priceless.
Uncle looks like he is struggling to climb Genting after so many easy climb on EVs. 😅😅

@@hoomee7605 crz probably just a honda city engine
Sounds like Suzuki Swift Sport 3rd gen would be a better buy over the CRZ for second hand.
Uncle did his best to tame the car. It indeed a trilling ride 🎉

tdo4 is such a small turbo. Not sure why kick in so late :P

@@sc3740 yup its a single scroll and using journal bearing...so will spool slower..
Good lessons n notes for car tuning. Its not easy to get it right. Better to just buy a ready made sports car.
Happy birthday to the CRZ owner 🥳
The car set up and power delivery left a lot to be desired for.
IMHO a 5 speed gearbox set up would be better
If i have a car one day i would love for uncle to drive it up genting just so i know what to do to improve the car handling system and performance..
Nearly want to purchase 1, however can’t accept the rear suspension 😢
Is the hybrid system still functional after all the mods?
depends on you, you can cut it if you want, but if u want mix hybrid + turbo / supercharge also can
@@SkeletalPlayzit def is possible because turbo/supercharged hybrids exist but i think hes asking if the CR-Z in the video still has its hybrid system
This car should get the tune from the 300hp civic fc from sunway.
Honda Bolt on rear tousion beam vs mazda sky active high compression rear multi link (maybe)
Satria Neo or CRZ which one nicer handling?
Depends on speed and set up.
@@YSKhongDriving can elaborate more ?
informative. awesome.
Glad you enjoyed it!
where did he get the turbo installed?
alot place can do..
supercharge kit would be much better choice instead of turbo.
Hybrid still work or totally removed?
Totally removed. Now dependent on turbo for power
@@YSKhongDriving hybrid will last 30 sec only up the mountain..
Alot stock car driver better .first time saw uncle drive not talking much or fun reaction
Uncle actually wanna talk alot la. Just finding the right words to not hurt the owner haha
If this guy really knows performance and handling, he won't buy an automatic transmission, and then convert it to a Manual.
TD04 are bit too big for an 1.5lit? It’s seem to be lack of mid range power delivery.
Unker, why you pinching?😂
I m wondering why this turbo car go so slow??no kick at all..haha...🤣
slow meh ?
Exhaust is too drony IMO, hard to hear commentary and hard to watch
poor setup for a turbo engine....front suspension seems very soft ....and the cooling system is inefficient....
.all that engine build up n handling still sucks
hahahahaha nice video
Uncle , help this guy get a good tunner ...what a waste ...
need to spend alot more...
