Greetings from Belgium ! Very plaisant and informative drive. I bought the auto version - exactly for the reasons you mention. After seven months wait, I got it one month ago and love every moment with it.
Super effortless cornering. Incredible to see. I watch so many cars this is one of the easiest car to corner. Good FR cars. No understeer at all, but must manage oversteer.
Amazing review. I also loved your brz review. Not often i see a car review (and my favourite car too) that was used to the absolute limit. I could definitely see this one is driven by a racer.
Uncle did you observe any low oil pressure during right hand turns under braking? (IDK if the displays show the oil pressure or not) because currently a common issue most people face tracking GR86s are oil starvations (lots of forum posts and videos by the owners) Has Toyota Made any changes/adjustments for it yet cause it seems to be serious...
Hello Uncle, is the gear ratio shorter compared to the gt86? I feel like uncle had to go gear 4 a lot more often or am I imagining it? Also, in uncle's opinion is the gt86 more tail happy than the gr86 at similar speeds?
I think perhaps we could achieve higher speeds due tp the extra torque, so we could go into 4th more often. The GR86 is definitely faster than the 2.0 GT86, and does feel more tail happy, but perhaps from the increased torque.
i heard that too. It's due to suspension tuning. Toyota wants to have little difference with subaru as there is a price gap between those two models. That's what I know so far. I hope, he can compare in future
The BRZ is similar, and yes, it could be better; I have driven both, and yes, the BRZ did feel more planted. However I also noticed the GR86 test car was shod on PS5's and I think that was a deviation from the PS4's.
There is a RM60k difference in the price. Of course the GR Corolla will be a bit more agile, but the GR86 would be more fun because it is a bit more tail-happy. For a person wanting to learn car control tue GR 86 would be more appropriate.
Genting needs to do a lot more to maintain the road now due to massive projects developing at the area. The trucks are damaging the road which in turn damages our car 😢
Another nice video and I especially appreciated the foot cam showing your gear shifting skills. I have a trivial but serious question, GR86 or BRZ? The BRZ is more comfortable, RM45k cheaper and it's mostly a Subaru car anyway. The 86 has the pop history and I think more handsome grill. Your personal choice, please?
Each one has its own degree of fun. I think the Miata is lighter so the power to weight ratio is similar. Both are fun to drive, but perhaps the Miata is more chuckable.
Better not to wear shades because it is very early in the day and sometimes there are shadow areas and we need unimpeded sight. The sun glare area is quite familiar to me, and even shades will mot help.
video at 4:53 .. Why are all the cars slow down ? especially that Green color Mini Cooper , very selfish driver !! and looks like though he is driving the most expensive car in the world !! Some drivers are like that , they cannot see other driving fast on the road , so the only way making them relieve is to HOGGING the fast lane AKA purposely accelerate slowly ..
There was nothing there, just a bunch of people whom I think were not sure where to go, or not sure of the corner. The video was not edited at that point.
I like how uncle edited rear camera recording into the irvm.
Always love the buttery smooth rev matching footwork. Great footcam, and thank you!
Thank you too!
That's a really nice touch, the foot cam at the car's infotainment screen, and rear cam at the rear mirror!
Was looking for this comments . I agree... Having the pedal view makes it sooo much more exciting
Nice drive.
Always love manual. Good to see YS drive with cautious with the
Sun glare. Well done.
Thanks! 👍
uncle spirit of competitor is never fade . love to see pedal shifting cam angle view
Im so impress with these camera setup,! Can see all angle in perfect vision!!! Keep it up uncle!! Love you !!
Thank you!
Greetings from Belgium ! Very plaisant and informative drive. I bought the auto version - exactly for the reasons you mention. After seven months wait, I got it one month ago and love every moment with it.
I am sure you are loving it. Yes, the auto is a small sacrifice for practicality, and it is just as fun.
the first 5 mins hill climb looks thrilling especially with all those evasive manuver skills.
Superb driving as usual Uncle YS... Nice foot cam too!
Glad you liked it
What a great driving. My left ear enjoyed all of these 😅
sad right ear noises
Wow, the car stability and balance have improved.
PS: Get one YS 😊
most important no more torque dip, rev nicely
I love how you make use of racing lines on mountain roads.
The white Mercedes trying to give a chase was hilarious hahaha
Small RWD NA boxer engine sportscar. And manual. Must be a blast to drive up Genting uncle.
For sure
Been waiting for this for a long time. It's a whole new level to compare to old gt86
Absolutely
Super effortless cornering. Incredible to see. I watch so many cars this is one of the easiest car to corner. Good FR cars. No understeer at all, but must manage oversteer.
Couldn't agree more!

Glad you liked it!
Dude is driving crazy in daylight, respect
You mean driving well, thanks
Lovely driving Uncle YS 🔥👌
Thanks ✌️
This uncle only if he young , he should join PETRONAS MERCEDES F1. The way he drive & dive so smooth.
Right mic not recording anything uncle
Thanks for the feedback. You must be using headphones
The engine was like it never give up but only one left side of headphone can be hear😅
The review limpeh was lookin fwd to🎉
Don't quite understand...
Uncle did you observe any low oil pressure during right hand turns under braking? (IDK if the displays show the oil pressure or not)
because currently a common issue most people face tracking GR86s are oil starvations (lots of forum posts and videos by the owners)
Has Toyota Made any changes/adjustments for it yet cause it seems to be serious...
Everything was okay during the drive. There is no oil pressure gauge, but there is a light. It did not ignite at all.
The sound recording is weird.anyway excellent drive
Nice drive, I'm still learning how to do heel & toe for rev matching after watching your video, but I just can't do it right.
Takes a bit of time.
Yess. Uncle dont forget gr yaris and gr corolla too
That's so cool driving
Thanks for this review. Less review for GR86 by utuber
You are most kind, thank you.
Syiok ler! 宝刀未老，master YS..14 mins karak to hill top.
the sun is like a flash banng
Hello Uncle, is the gear ratio shorter compared to the gt86? I feel like uncle had to go gear 4 a lot more often or am I imagining it? Also, in uncle's opinion is the gt86 more tail happy than the gr86 at similar speeds?

@@YSKhongDriving I see! Thank you Uncle!!
The brz next ! I have heard that the GR86 tend to slide its tail out more often than the brz
i heard that too. It's due to suspension tuning. Toyota wants to have little difference with subaru as there is a price gap between those two models. That's what I know so far. I hope, he can compare in future
i think if you share the speed information by the GPS would give another experience to us..
i love your chanel mister..
My left ear loved this
Sorry about that
Nice video YS👍🏼 Many drivers and motoring journalists commented that the BRZ is better of these 2 cars.
The BRZ is similar, and yes, it could be better; I have driven both, and yes, the BRZ did feel more planted. However I also noticed the GR86 test car was shod on PS5's and I think that was a deviation from the PS4's.
How’s the ground clearance uncle? No need to angle if approaching steep speed bumps?
Since GR86 and GR Corolla almost similar in price, which would you choose just purely based on fun driving experience?
There is a RM60k difference in the price. Of course the GR Corolla will be a bit more agile, but the GR86 would be more fun because it is a bit more tail-happy. For a person wanting to learn car control tue GR 86 would be more appropriate.
Genting needs to do a lot more to maintain the road now due to massive projects developing at the area. The trucks are damaging the road which in turn damages our car 😢
I find the road okay
Hi Uncle YS, in your opinion, which one nicer? This GR86 or mazda miata MX5 when drive genting uphill?
Both
Another nice video and I especially appreciated the foot cam showing your gear shifting skills.
I have a trivial but serious question, GR86 or BRZ?
The BRZ is more comfortable, RM45k cheaper and it's mostly a Subaru car anyway. The 86 has the pop history and I think more handsome grill. Your personal choice, please?
The price difference is a definite pull. Yes, basically both are the same car, so it finally comes down to brand and aesthetics.
@@YSKhongDriving Thanks hehehe
Nice video, YS Khong! Anyway, possible to get Corolla Sport 1.2 Turbo to drive up genting? Thanks
Thanls. As for the Corolla, highly unlikely unless an owner offers his car.
Ys khong which one more fun to drive mx5 miata or gr 86?
Each one has its own degree of fun. I think the Miata is lighter so the power to weight ratio is similar. Both are fun to drive, but perhaps the Miata is more chuckable.
The car I wish I able to afford. Hopefully by the time I could they still exist
Hahaha, there will always be one, at the very least. I started saving for mine too.
nice exterior , interior so so... but would love to own it.
You and me both!
well, you speak english much better than japan's prime minister
Hey uncle i got my hilux grs :) loving it. hope u can review and drive in the future. sadly i'm from PH
Hahaha, I can fly over
Hahaha let me know when you are in PH Uncle 😂
Hi uncle, have you ever considered to use shades (because of the sun glare) or is there any safety reason you don't wear one? Thank you.
Better not to wear shades because it is very early in the day and sometimes there are shadow areas and we need unimpeded sight. The sun glare area is quite familiar to me, and even shades will mot help.
For just a moment, I had flashback of that panda trueno..
Hahaha, me too
Probably a silly question, why uncle have to blur out the speed meter? There is other youtuber who let it recorded.
Too many keyboard warriors.
YS, do you suggest c300 coupe 2019 or GR86? Both recond both about the same price
Depends on what you want. I would take the GR any day
uncle khong needs polarised sunglasses!
Nothing works when the sun is directly in your eyes.
Nice shoes you have there YS Khong is it from Bata brands? ❤
No, from Polo
They should just call it GR8 (great)
They should have call it anything but the 86. It's not even the same car as the OG AE86
@@metradawn8071 average hp, N/A, rwd, fun car. thats why the still use 86 on this car.
Nice drive as always uncle!
How is it compared to mk8 gti?
It's different
aghhhhh i is melting w thisss
Uncle.. could you edit the audio next video.. the sound only came out on left ear if using earphone..
We are having some issues with the sound recorder.
looking fwd proton s70 genting climb
Uncle YS. i have a dilemma. to get a 2021/2022 GR86 or a 2017/2018 Fl GT86 and spend the extra cash on mods.
Why bother - the GR86 is faster without the mods. Keeping it stock has its merits. No meed to worry about reliability
@@YSKhongDriving Thank you Uncle YS!
15-20 years younger than most driver...
Hahaha
Uncle Khong, why you didn't wear your racing shoe?
Wanted a light colour shoe for the contrast.
Uncle bile nak test s70,dia org ckp power proton 😂
Stand by!!!
this is me in my 60s
Uncle tak pening ke bwk laju kt jalan bukit Tu?😓 Saya yg jd passenger pun rasa nak muntah bila naik bukit 😭
Langsung tidak - dah biasa
Same road as that evo 9 Togue video
I’m so glad this is in English🤌🏽 💯⛩️
Me too, cos I cannot speak Latin either.
do u hv a driving school or any driving school to recommend???
Please contact us for details.
wow
Where are you from sir ?
lndiyuh
Did you turn off ASC?
ESC? Yes, because it was dry
Lagi hensem kalau ada amoi duduk sebelah 😅
Hahaha setuju!
Base on uncle videos.. gr yaris looks faster in the hill climb and uncle enjoyed yaris gr more...my guess
They are two different animals.
I suppose you cant drive that fast in japan?
🤤🔥
Sounds like a leaf blower.
The exhaust is stock.
Uncle, can this car drink ron95?
Can
❤super ❤❤❤❤
Big thanks
uncle YS become uncle Bunta
RON98?
The higher the better, but it can run 97 without issues.
uncle become MF Ghost
Hahaha, Takumi -san!
Im not a better driver than you but i thought you'd shift quicker than this
It's not about how fast you shift - it's about when you shift, and how you shift .
gg intense
Get a seal
Great car with weak engine.
The new engine makes good power

video at 16:45 .. another selfish and dangerous HR-V driver OMG
Happens there all the time
ngl i like my 2013 version more than this new one
I am surprised.
👍👍👍
