I'd say your number one problem with all those corners is you're taking them at 2k-3k RPM in a car with a 7k redline. You're not in the right spot of the power band to be smooth, downshift more. It is a freaking sweet car though and I enjoyed the hell out of your proving grounds, your POV work is spot on and thank you for the lack of music. And your stuff sliding around in the back just adds to the authenticity!
From one driving enthusiast to another. Hand position is important, especially for safety but also efficiency. 9 and 3 o’clock. With both hands in 9/3, you can make up to a full 180 degree turn without removing your hands (though they will cross over themselves). Most corners above 20mph shouldn’t require you to shift from that position. Beautiful car btw!!🔥🔥
@@MeadeJ67 I don’t have a choice but to let him🤷🏽♂️😂 I don’t plan on finding him and forcing him. As I said - from one driving enthusiast to another. I wish someone told me that a long time ago! Practice doesn’t make perfect. Practice makes permanent. Better to correct a bad habit sooner
Please do a video showing my external shots while driving in the canyons! Love this vids you post, I have a 91 TT stealth and appreciate you showing some love to the vr4
I’ve done a simple upgrade to billet tdo4hl 20ts and laid down 600whp with minor bolt ons. She spins all 4 to 50mph not launching! Considering Arashi turbos are great quality and only cost 1k for the pair shipped! Cost was only around 1800$ to achieve these numbers(of course it was mostly eBay bolt ons😂)..these cars are super underrated!
I wouldn't be able to tell exactly but I know that they display temperatures (oil...) & maybe pressure. You could search on google for "3000gt vr4 gauges" and you'll have way more information.
Ok cool. Thank you bro!! Btw I love your cars bro! They’re literally my dream cars. Hopefully one day I could get mine. I also like your videos bro! Keep up the good work!
Not a handler? Have you gotten better driving it since then? Have you changed to different tire's or other suspension mods? Have you tried any racing of your own or just a cruiser? There's a avg. Joe, from Sweden that drives a 3S short hill climb stage. His is clearly a handful. It drives almost like a rwd car. A fair amount of oversteer, wheel spin, and correction.

(3000GT stock + stock mods) 1995 Pike's Peak hill climb winner by +33s - +1min vs Randy Pobst in BMW M5 (Dodge Stealth stock mods) 1996 & 1997 Best MotoRing battle royale winner at Tsukuba.

This feeling you are getting is from the AWS. You need to trust the car more than you feel you should and step on the gas when it feels like it's going to spin out. If you want to make it feel more of a natural handling sports car you can delete the all wheel steer. I have both the Z16A GTO Twin Turbo and the Z15A GTO Twin Turbo MR (no AWS) and the MR gives a more confidence inspiring drive at the limit of traction
Good to know. Tough to blindly trust you the car on that road as the majority of it is 100ft drop offs if something goes wrong. I’ll have to give it some gas on a safe turn somewhere.
@@therealjessescheel I feel you man! If interested, here's me doing something similar in mine, skip to the twisty down hill section: ua-cam.com/video/WsGMPugiCJU/v-deo.html The fastest way to understand your car would be to take it to a track day, you will love how quickly it is to learn and give you all thay confidence to have fun in the canyons I promise !
prima dei fare questi video vai a fare un corso di guida, offendi l'automobile, me e tutti quelli che hanno questa auto. Guida, mani sul volante, uso del cambio, traiettorie... non ne fai una giusta.
Shuffle steering into tight corners while overheating the brakes and putting unnecessary wear on the clutch and transmission. This goober shouldn't be behind the steering wheel of a sports car.

Maybe he doesn't know the road that well, tbh I'm kinda hesitant to stay in high rpm going into corners cus of lift of oversteer.

My thoughts too when I watched this, gotta have 9 and 3 to make proper corrections and to feel how much you've turned the wheel into a corner
Or just let him do what works for him.

@@MeadeJ67 It was friendly advice that would make him (or anyone) a better driver but you of course had to get defensive.
so relaxing. What a great road and time of the day for a drive.
I love this car. Everything about it brings back childhood memories.
I love that pov man, its awesome seein these povs from 3000gts
Glad you liked it! 😎👍🏼
Super underrated channel. Glad I found you early before you blow up. Keep up the great work man! All love from Jersey
☺️👍🏼
@@therealjessescheel and super underrated japanese car jajaja
Please do a video showing my external shots while driving in the canyons! Love this vids you post, I have a 91 TT stealth and appreciate you showing some love to the vr4
I love your channel and this vr4, keep up the great work! :)
Thanks man! ☺️👍🏼
My white 1995 VR4 is almost done. Sincerely from Connecticut keep up the good work
☺️👍🏼
How smooth it handles, wow.
Nice, I just got a 98 VR4 GTO here in Japan, it’s my third VR4 but I like this one best.
Thank U 4 not playing shitty music N letting us hear the Engine
the silver badge on that second one looks so sleek. im gonna have to do that with mine
Very nice!
such cool cars!

Agree that they are underrated.
@kevin You made 600w on stock internals? Just curious, im waiting on my TD04HLL-21H turbos.
wow
So cool to see a vid like this at Tortilla Flats
Excellent 👍
like your car and your glasses :)
Granny shifting, not double clutching like your supposed to…..jk cool video I like the cinematic intro. Cool car.
Flip flops approaching in the darkness at 6am. 👍
You know it 👌🏼🙂
Recommend that u change the steering wheel and seats, for steering wheel Momo, seats recaro
Also 6'2" but with a 91 vr4. You have a moonroof, that takes a good 2"
Yeah it’s miserable.
So Jesse now that you have had the 3000gt and the gsx, what do you like driving better? Or a comparison video??? 😁
Mmm...now there's an idea 😀👍
AWESOME suggestion! Thanks for being a long time subscriber/commenter! I am on it! Stay tuned 😎👍
Have you seen Retrospec's widebody kit? it's awesome, I plan on getting that for my 1g stealth if I can!
I have not. I like their old lips though 👌🏼
what is the exhaust on it?
99 vr4 FTW!
Yeah buddy! 🤙🏼
Dude you drive like my sister on her way to the salon.
I see that you have replace the 3 gauges above the center console and on the 2 on the drivers side pillar. What are They? Thanks. Car looks great.
I wouldn't be able to tell exactly but I know that they display temperatures (oil...) & maybe pressure.
You could search on google for "3000gt vr4 gauges" and you'll have way more information.
I'm looking for someone to rebuild my 1994 Mitsubishi 3000GT!!! Any suggestions??
I’m also from Arizona and I’m wondering what roads did you took so I can go for a ride in my oz rally
Apache trail 🤙🏼
Ok cool. Thank you bro!! Btw I love your cars bro! They’re literally my dream cars. Hopefully one day I could get mine. I also like your videos bro! Keep up the good work!
Lil bro hasn't heard of engine braking
This car is just timeless but I just can't deal with the headlights. I feel like it would've been better with pop-up headlights.
They kinda grow on you over time
Luckily you can choose ☺️👍🏼

How much does IT cost? IT could be a good first sport car to buy?
No lol
Recently moved to Phoenix but down in Chandler. GSX owner and would love to hit the canyon roads. Where is this one exactly or what’s it called?
Highway 88 in Apache Junction 🤙🏼
First! Bam!
Still awake on the east side huh? My man 😎👍
@@therealjessescheel these last couple of canyon videos with the vr4 and the boxster are really making me want to hit those roads with you again!
May I know what have been done from 320 hp to 400?
13g turbies, DSM injectors, Supra pump, CSX racing dual core fmic, single cat downpipe, custom tune, and me driving it.
350 wheel 400 crank

Get some cool overs.... I have ISCs in mine
It has tein coilovers currently.

I 2nd that, I used to drive my 97 VR4 very hard and it never felt like it was out of shape. I miss it dearly..
Why are you selling her???
Flipping a house in Scottsdale. Need capital.
@@therealjessescheel did it sell? If not, what are you asking if you don’t mind.
