    Hello, everyone.
    Thank you for watching this video. I really appreciate your comments. Hopefully my subtitle would be helpful for you to understand what Mr. Tsuchiya wants to tell you!

    It's so touching to me that this absolute legend of a racing driver thinks about people who really want to have all the joy of motorsport but can't afford it. He comes off as a person who just wants everyone to have as much fun as he has racing and really is standing behind the culture.

      reminds me of when they saw the JUN prelude H22c. Low-er than standard RPM vtec profile, low end torque too, and the same sentiment to the pre owned value and aspects towards young or low wage earners as having Good vtec power over a b16/b18 vtec honda.

      What really saddens me is that young people would probably get these kindof cars but without MT transmission in 2030, he said this in the video. I learned to drive with MT and drive every day with MT transmission, shame production cars in 2030s would probably not be equipped with MT.

      @@ramal5708 Truly. I know MT’s or manual transmissions can be overly hyped up as fun and better than AT’s, but I genuinely believe they are. Once I got a little taste of the car scene, I was so desperate for my next car to be equipped with a MT. Grateful to say that my next car was indeed one with a MT, and it’s still my current daily. I never get bored driving it. Learning how to rev-match and heel-toe, ugh the driving experience is unparalleled. A shame really that the future for MT’s is a sad reality.

      Too bad you can't buy them. There was next to no volume of cars available to buy. I think Tsuchiya and Tada meant well, but Toyota management used them to make a marketing flick since making these cars is not really profitable. That's why almost none were made. Most countries got less than 20 units to buy or none. It's a joke as bad as 80s quality of General Motors.

      Now, try to buy this car. Even if you could easily afford it when it was released, it was impossible to buy it, because Toyota hardly made any. It wasn't really a car for anyone. It was a marketing flick, made to make people think warm of Toyota before internal combustion cars are retired and sports cars are no more. They probably anticipated they can't make any money with this car, so they made just a few units to heat up the fame and the fact that nobody could buy it is lost in verses.

    I like how he is honest about tuning the wrong way. That's why I like it when the car is tuned in Japan because they look at everything not just power. In the states they are just power hungry even if it's damaging the engine. I like the way he think.

    • @anhiirr

      i mean look at those cartubers....some guy did a celica gt with a beams swap and a bunch of out of the catalogue parts...like 60k build...or that other car tuber that k swapped their FD.....and bought it already with a k swap for 14000 and spent 60K+ too in parts/labor. Imagine being DIY and investing into something like that when they all aluminum LS engines for 400+HP out the door with a brand new trans for less. Most hard parkers couldnt even drive an aggressive cam or a built rotary as it is. And hes right about tuning the right way if i had the money to k swap a rolling chassis 240z i would vs trying to run an rb26 or an os giken build. Imagine replacing a clutch or rear end/dif on an os giken z and how long that process would take to get the parts and install etc. I mean there forsure is an aspect of efficacy. Just like ppl 3sge swapping mr2's. Plus as the years had passed theyre come more modern and expensive stand alone sytems that just make matters worse in that tuning/cost aspect....even in MERICA with carbed built strokers...switching to EFI or holley throttle body entails a lot to max out a platform/head/fuel utilized. Even worse adapting "classic" chassis to use that power. Where most ppl will ideally swap newer z parts like steering/brakes etc from z32 into their z31 or etc s chassis parts into their z31....or various other examples in japan. Plus america has had its history at the dragstrip as a way of "benchmarking" performance outside of actual track racing. I mean the GT-R and Vette recently are responsible for so many new(expen$$ive) tire blends/compounds in the last 15 year window....look at how much spoon charges for 200+ HP NA "reliable" like can be ran for high endurance/abuse forged internals etc.....people think its all fun and games. Plus it should be subjective as it is to the drivers style/ability/capability and typically tire and brake potential if cornering.

    I can see now why the new 86 isn't a crazy expensive car like the Lexus LFA. They could make a monster car and slap the 86 name on it and people would love it. But DK himself wanted young people in this generation to be able to afford a fun and fast sports car that doesn't break the bank. He understands that young people want to own nice and fun cars but obviously most of them can't afford to spend a lot of money to have such cars. Which is why FT86 was born. He knows that most would go to the used market because it's cheaper and modify it to their liking but eventually spending even more than they should have just to be at an acceptable level. He spent 13 million yen (~115 000 USD) just on his AE86. Imagine that.

      The easiest to make a car slide is of course with handbrake but you're a intermediate or expert drifter if you could make a car slide without EBrakes.
      Sadly there won't be any old fashioned EBrake that could be use for drifting anymore in the future as most manufacturers starting to equip cars with electric EBrakes smh.

    That sinking feeling when he said MT's will be gone in 2030. I'm all for the environment but I'm exceedingly sad at the strict timeline to go electric. I can't afford a brand new car by then and it's depressing to think I'll never drive a new car that I will enjoy.

    • @KillerLettuce
      @KillerLettuce 2 роки тому +8

      Unless there’s some Japanese law I don’t know about I think the comment about manual transmissions being gone by 2030 was more about the trend of cars and buyers. Vast majority of cars are either automatic or paddle shift at best. Even super cars are almost exclusively paddle. I think it’s more a case of convenience and ease of use over anything else. Though in the case of paddle shifting they do shift much faster than stick.
      I hope manuals don’t disappear by 2030 though.

To think one day the legendary 86 will cease to exist due to the movement of electric cars, as a petrol head it really pains me. What makes me even more sad is that I recently purchased a brand new AMG as I wanted something practical and fun so it would be difficult for me to get the GR86 which I am insanely in love with and the fact that apparently it will only be sold for 2 years is heart breaking as I think it might be hard to even get hold of a used one in the future.

On one hand im happy that the entire world is finally recognizing Japanese sports cars for how great they were, and still are.. But i am sad that so many people will never get to experience it. With all the cars that ended up being destroyed or left to rust in junk yards.... plus Automakers completely turning away from making engaging cars while focusing more on electric cars with no feel or passion behind the wheel, im thankful for cars like the 86 and the new fairlady. Keep making videos! Pass on the tradition to the next generation and here is to hoping my kids and others will be able to enjoy cars like we did!

I'm about to go and check one out in the next few days, see whether it is as great as people say. I want something different in life. If Keiichi says that the car is great, than I have pretty high expectations

    It's always a treat to see Keiichi Tsuchiya, his love for driving and fun-loving spirit is inspiring and contagious lol. I used to work for Toyota as a mechanic and was shocked to disbelief when the FT86 was announced. Thank you Tada-san! I never dreamed after the Prius Toyota would ever dare make a car again like the AE86 or my personal favorite its big brother MA67 aka the MkII Celica Supra from the same era. The old 'underpowered' MA had a similar philosophy pre turbo to the 86. A responsive chassis with enough power and gearbox to have fun with room to grow. It would be interesting to see if they could do a modern MR2 and Celica.
    Anyone can spend enough R&D money to make a safe and reliable car to go to work or the grocery store for a fair price. What made Toyota special and successful when I was a kid was they made something for everyone's needs, especially us gearheads thanks to TRD. Oh what a feeling indeed. Toyota is in a position where they can make cleaner cars for the masses but do not have to totally abandon the average car enthusiast or pro racing. The other manufacturers could too, but they often make their sports cars too expensive for most people to attain even used.

I love this car, especially since I saw the initial D anime. I have had a Toyota celica in the past, fantastic car. the gr86 has many innovative solutions in general, from the engine, to the chassis and suspension. seeing it close to your gt86, personally I would choose your gt86. I liked this car right away, as soon as it arrived on the Italian market. personally I find it with a stronger personality than the gr86, this is my opinion. unfortunately it is no longer sold in Italy and, as far as I know, the gr86 will not be imported. luckily there are used gt86s for sale, and my plan will be to buy one. even if I'm not that young anymore, I always have the desire to have fun driving! with a few tuning tricks, i'm sure the gt86 will make people like me enjoy more. domo arigatou gozaimasu !!!!
