God, these things are crazy. Even in factory spec, it's literally 100hp per cylinder. Impressive engineering, and I'm so glad there's still a handful of companies willing to build this type of stuff in todays era of ev's and hybrids.
@@kurkkobain can't stand weirdo elitests like you; a badass turbo car inspired by wrc is putting in work on the track and all you have to contribute to the conversation is childish nonsense - embarrassing...
👏👏👏👌....whoaa!!!... 👀😱..now that's a pocket rocket car!!!...awesome, damn its rapid!. Sounds lovely , like the old MG 6R4!!... Great footage as always Hillclimb Monsters!👏👍😁
Can we find out what grade of engine oil it uses? I am asking for everyone owning a Yaris GR and spends time on the track. There was a debate whether they should use the manufacturer specified engine oil grade or use thicker grade due to higher temperatures. This monster would be a perfect example case of oil.
@@soulcapitalist6204 well, I tend to agree, BUT - factory recommendations do not include track days. You are basically heat soaking the engine, the oil temperature gets higher than the factory expectations. Isn't that the case when the user should make one more independent decision (after deciding to do track days) - to protect the engine with higher viscosity engine oil that will have equal viscosity with the factory recommended oil at a lower temperature?
@@Druze_Tito Oil coolers to the rescue. It's some advice from an RX7 owner with our sensitivity to low viscosity at high temps. Running 50 weight is also an Rx7 thing, but for race applications, probably not.
@@soulcapitalist6204 the Wankel rotary engine is known for oil consumption, not really for being picky about oil viscosity as long as there's lubrication left - they're fine. They require A3/B4 engine oil and everything that comes with it vs other ACEA specs. Aftermarket oil cooler is even better and if that keeps down the oil temperature within 'safe limits' then one can stick to the factory specified engine oil. For that oil temp and pressure gauge are a must. But, to avoid the need to invest in additional aftermarket parts - it's safe to use the engine oil viscosity that will flow and protect the engine the same way at higher temperatures as the factory recommended engine oil does at lower, it's just a simpler and cheaper solution for occasional track days. For competitive driving - oil cooler and all the monitoring gauges should be considered, while keeping an eye on the gauges all the time.
I wonder if there's a guy crazy enough to combine two G16E into a makeshift V engine or build a twin engined version of the GR Yaris/GR Corolla much like Monster Tajima with the Suzuki Cultus since you get pretty much 1000hp if both of those are tuned like this one.
@@AbrahamArthemius I want see that too but 2 engine to one or dual engine race cars are not a thing:( Thats kinda sad since you can have 1 4.0L V8 twin turbo in front with 1000Hp and second one in back. and you still can have weight around 1200Kg with 2000Hp and AWD:)
And then consider the neutered Yaris (Yarises? Yaris'? Yarisisuses? Yarii?) they give us in The States. Ugh. I'd give one of my kidneys for a 500hp FenSport Yaris. Love the euro Yaris. Love me a tight little hot hatch 😉
It's not that uncommon tbh. You can find 3-cyl with a relatively big displacement in motorbikes, some even exceed 2L of displacement. For cars while they're mostly found inside economy cars, there are performance oriented cars which use a 3cyl engine like the Ford Fiesta ST with 1.5L producing around 200hp, the GR Yaris & GR Corolla which produces 300hp stock in its latest iteration, and then there's the Koenigsegg Gemera which has an engine option to use a 2.0L 3cyl that can produce 600hp.
I wonder if having a lingerie brand as sponsor gets a lot of comments. Like maybe it's sexy underwear under the race suit... Not hating. It's just very different from the usual motorsport based sponsors :)
