3:15 "5.5k is peak power, so 5.5k is what I'd shift". Just a word of advice to the owner, the reason why MIsha wanted to shift PAST the peak power is so that once you get into the next gear, you'll land just ON or just before the peak power. If you shift at 5.5k, your next gear will land you significantly under the peak power, which on an engine that needs revs to get going, is something you don't want.
I’m here for this comment, anyway peak power isn’t what you want anyway. You want to shift at the optimal point to where the revs are at peak torque for the next gear. If this guy is competing in this next year good luck to him shifting like he’s going to the shops lol
yeah most people fail to realise, gears are torque multipliers, my audi a4 1.8t feels like it falls off powerband at 5k, but actually its just the brain playing tricks with the feeling of boost tapering off, still faster revving it past that. Dynos only measure peak engine toqrue not the torque for all gears, hence why diff gears do nothing on a dyno but move the powerband sliggghhhtly. Handy tip: If you log Acelleration in G's over time and RPM you can work out exactly the best shift points not based just off feeling or dyno sheets.
I can never understand the owner wanting to film on their phone when there's already three cameras filming in the car? If you want to film your lap at least get a mount for your phone instead of holding it and filming the floor and dashboard 😂
I was about to say this, it always baffles me too seeing people struggling with phones when they should just enjoy it knowing there is multiple cameras capturing the lap already.
@@hansvader7515 I must add that the partially removed interior weighs about 30 kg, so even with lightweight Weds wheels and/or lighter exhaust, the total weight loss on that car cannot be 120 kg, as the owner claims... especially if we count the added parts (wing etc)
@@z1mke i know, i got the same car as ringtool (lsd, öhlins road and track, vmaxx 330mm breaks, 6 point harness, and so on...) and it weights about 950kg, stock is around 970kg
Lol.... yeah, you should try to keep the engine within it's most efficient power band, so if you know where your peak HP is, is one thing, you also need to know how fast it rolls off after that, and more importantly, where peak torque is, and try to keep it to where when you shift, your next gear falls right in between peak torque and peak HP.....but just because a car has "peak HP" at say, 5600rpm, doesn't mean that's where you should shift.... especially if it flattens out.... you've got a lot of room to play with if that's the case (I'm sure I'm explaining it worse than I'm thinking I am lol)

My mum has one of this shape and I have the 32s with the N/A 1.6. Hers is standard and mine is well…far from standard lol! Both are heaps of fun and actually really capable little chassis’! Really cool example! 🤩
@ Oh good question! 😃 They’re really very different I feel in terms of how they give their power. Both are brilliant chassis and incredibly nimble and capable. It’s totally personal preference. For me personally, I enjoy the N/A more as you need to work it a bit harder to get the most from it. Mine is very much a weekend/night time run out for enjoyment car nowadays as the years have evolved I had the choice of both as there was one of each shape in the dealer when I bought mine and I chose the N/A but if I had the space, I’d happily have a 33 too along side it! Both are fantastic and if you prefer more of that punch, the 33s is the one to go for. If like me you prefer a more, dare I say, drive that harks back to late 90’s into the 2000’s hot hatches like saxo’s, lupo gti’s and civics etc, then the 31 or 32s is the one for you! It was a close choice between them but 4 years later, it still puts a massive smile on my face every time I get in it!
@@aaronalp2639 thanks for the reply my life already has the 1.6 NA and I have wondered if it's worth updating to the turbo model but it's been such a good car I think it's worth sticking with.
...after also doing some thorough window shopping 2yrs ago and doing research I ended up w/ the 32s. I agree, the 33s gives a nice punch 👊🏾 coz of the turbo but the N/A is much better enjoyed coz it's very demanding, doesn't need you napping when it whispers in your ear to give it a workout 😅. I've been considering looking at the 33s in M/T but I just can't seem to get my eyes off the 32s, I'd rather make it my tuner car and get something like a FK2 Type R just for the love Japanese cars 😊.
i had prevous gen for 11 years... bulletproof fun toy, and i made a huge mistake i didnt bought one of these in 2018 when i changed it, these 1.4 turbo jet engines are really reliable... i bought civic sport with 182ps and i sold it in 2 years not happy with it, then i got myself a yaris GRMN, a totaly nuts car, but to expencive to use as daily, and then i got megane 4 rs 280... and also sold it 2 years later... with yaris GRMN and Megane 4 RS 280, i learned that those cars are to fast to use as daily for fun, swift is perfect, low weight and just enough power to fool around and not losing licence every day...

You should forbid people to use the phone in the car. Better content, and it won't get stuck under the breaks when your passenger eventually drops it in a bad spot.
People always gets mad when the owner records it, just like people going on concerts and records the show while there's ton of cameras there, why?, because it's for personal memory. You always tend to forget what happened after the event cuz of highly state of emotional occurred during the event. So for the people that got mad, just get over it.

I had a heated argument with a guy about 20 years ago, who also thought you need to shift at peak power.
If it’s a Honda it’s normal to shift on the rev limiter 😂 otherwise idk
