i love the sound it makes between shifts or when he lets off the accelerator. is that a blow off valve? what is it that makes that pengiun sounding whistle
@TwoGlock9s That fluttering sound is called compressor surge. It's a result of the highly compressed air being forced back into the turbocharger's compressor when the throttle body is closed. Having a blow-off valve prevents this from happening, and instead lets the compressed air out all at once which gives a "chhh" sound.
Tiff can't drift?!?!? WTF?! I bet if he had a little more time he would master it. That one run was very nice though, he even clipped the grass with the front wheel. Tiff, your still a bad ass. :)
@samkonetsky its not a blow off valve. u want that sound just remove ur bov and put a stainless steel pipe on the mouth of your turbo ull get that sound.. its turbo flutter echoed through a pipe.... 90% drift/race cars dont use bov because of losing gas through the bov everytime you lift off gas... look it up..
haha whoever said clarkson is the better drifter is an idiot. tiff is the cats pyjamas at drifting, clarkson just slides about in 4wd cars with ASM and TCS lolz, like with that fez he just epic failed with the tcs off
@Bjornar86 Jeremy Clarkson needs to be coached on how to drive on every episode which is why they nicely edit out his mishaps. Tiff Needell on the other hand used to race professionally and has so much more driving skill.
Tiff Needell is a driver first then a journalist second.
@libinls. Ever drifted? Obviously not or you would know that unless your on or near rev limiter you won't pick up road speed. And as for over clutching, clutch kicks are essential or the car will start to bog down and sometimes you need to do it to get a sharp transition. Drifting is the hardest thing a car could ever endure and that guy was pretty gentle on the car for his first time out.
8:53, he was on the handbrake way too early. No steering and then again, redline the crap out of the car.. ( as u can hear the d-valve noise)..and i hated how he said "now something broke on the bloddy car!"
no sht itll break cause he redlined the living daylights of the poor thing..plus over clutching =/
I used to work for D1GB. for those thinking its a 1j.. its not, this soarer was running 2JZ-GTE with Trust T78.. here is sma engine spec if anyones interested: Toyota 2JZ-GTE transplant from Mk4 Supra TT, HKS Stroked Engine (3100cc), HKS Pistons/Rods/Crank HKS 272 cams, in/ex HKS 1.2mm headgasket Trust T78 Turbo kit HKS External Wastegate (GT Type) with external screamer pipe HKS 680cc injectors HKS Cam Pulleys HKS 5 Bar Map Sensor HKS F CON V-Pro ECU & Loom (mapped by Mr Ito - Do-Luck)
@Radaman420 im not sure what body but the body looks fairly simular to the Supra (MK4) body. The body structure layout seems to fit perfectly with all the parts the supra puts out (factory/stock). it shares similar traits. dont take my word for it though.
@RobertMoua Same floorpan. I own a JZZ30 Soarer, and lined up next to my mates JZA80 Supra, they are almost exactly the same dimensions. Also many aftermarket parts are interchangeable (i.e. Ive used lots of parts for the JZA70 Supra's 1JZ-GTE, and bolt ons such as my front mounted intercooler kit are compatible between the Soarer and Supra)
soarers modded right look great and go great. such a shame when you see someone put in cheap altezza light crap and a wing and make it look like a $2 honda integra mutant.
@buhrrito Ummm different engines can be forged from different metals like aluminum and iron. The LS1 (V8 and most powerful) weights around 430 lbs, the 2JZ-GTE around 500-550 lbs, the RB26DETT around 600 lbs. So your wrong, and btw the 1JZ is a 2.5L and the 2JZ a 3.0L of displacement. Where did you get 1.3L from? Your garbage, please take yourself outside.
@buhrrito No, 1.3L is measure of volume with regard to displacement. The 1.3L engine in, for example, the RX-8 is a renesis 13b-msp and the RX-7 is the 13b-rew. 13B's range from N/A to turbocharged from the factory. The soarer in the video is running a 2.5L 1JZ-GTE. Why mention the rotary? It's worse than the LS1 in every way? Another question, are you mentally retarded?
Drifting isn't like need for speed, where you put full throttle around the corner. You have to be careful with your right foot and steering, to make a good complete drift.
@JayMark2049 well...thats what we mostly hear is compressor surge ...but there are times when you can just hear the turbo whine and its beautiful...FWIW, i was mainly talking about all the sounds associated with the turbo and all things related.
very good try from tiff , if he would practise a bit more he would be VERY good , the man is a professional driver , surely he can do exactly what japanese do , just needs some practise !
that's kinda vague, it depends on the diameter as well. you dont ever NEED dual exhaust, you can get 4 inch if you like. and why does a NA engine need it more? it moves less air than a turbo engine.
yea they are not ideal for drift but there are plenty of pros that use 4door drift cars. that are just as heavy if not heavier. Also how many ppl drift 240s i mean its a great platform for drift but its just getting a lil played out. Atleast the soarer is something a lil different
My philosophy is if it wasn't made to do it, why force it?
Friends has a 550hp Toyota Chaser and my brother has a S14 Silvia and they out drift my Soarer any day of the week but, when it comes to street or the strip I dominate.
My point is while the 240 and AE86 drift seen is played, there's a reason. They are just better drift cars hands down. I want to stay true to my Soarer and put it on the drag strip where it belongs...
soarer platform is no different to a chaser platform same engine same diff, same suspension! my soarer is built to drift thats probably the difference!
yea because off all the electronic bullshit in them once u remove the seats, and all other electronic crap the car starts to get back to round 1300-1400 kg mark!
yea i own a soarer in oz and its my drift car it has plenty of power and as for the hanbrake mechanics i just went for a hydraulic item as most drift boys do! and its not much heavier than ur r33 skyline!
the handbrake has its pro's. but using it to initiate the slide is for beginners. it slows you down. Best to save it for controlling the speed of the slide.
i used to do is every corner, it gets really boring
lolllllll at the first turn in the competition he did !!!! these racers get used to seeing people drifting and then out of nowhere comes a complete idiot fucking up the first turn lolllll funnny
30 Series Soarer models * JZZ30 (19912000) — 2.5 L 6 cyl twinturbo/single turbo VVTi * JZZ31 (19942000) — 3.0 L 6 cyl base model 6 cylinder (equivalent to Lexus SC300) * UZZ30 (19911993) — 4.0 L 8 cyl base model 8 cylinder (equivalent to Lexus SC400) * UZZ31 (19911997) — 4.0 L 8 cyl air suspension, "EMV" TV/touchscreen system * UZZ32 (19911996) — 4.0 L 8 cyl active suspension, four-wheel steering, "EMV" TV/touchscreen system
yes the car is terrible for drifting..... but yet they are a favorite car to be used by japanese, and uk drifters. .... I think you just suck ass and don't know what you were doing.
dude ur so wrong!!! they are 1 of the best cars to learn to drift with because of the power to weight. Yes ur right they are really heavy but the power they can produce will cause them to slide really smooth. they are a very stabile car. Anyway the car sounds good and runs good. like the power #'s. i am a fan of the 1jz.
mate i drift in 1 and its only 1400 kgs with all the usuals removed but it makes bucket loads of power and i hav the potential 2 lighten it further but it also has great stabillity and suspension upgrades hav further enhanced the handling i say theyre a great car!
its not a wastegate a wastegate is when the car is at full song and bypasses the exhaust gases past the turbo! what ur hearing is a blow off valve it releases built up turbo gases in the intake and vents to atmosphere (well this 1 does anyway).
It's called compressor surge, you can look it up to hear some examples. It's because the blow-off valve isn't removing enough pressure in the boost piping so the pressure is being ran backwards into the compressor blades of the turbo and this is considered bad for a turbocharger because it increases stress.
Fuck meeeeeeeeeeeee....amazing engine sound!!!! d-.-b :O

Soarers usually come with the 2JZ, which is a 3.2L i think. I'm not sure.

dude ur so wrong!!! they are 1 of the best cars to learn to drift with because of the power to weight. Yes ur right they are really heavy but the power they can produce will cause them to slide really smooth. they are a very stabile car. Anyway the car sounds good and runs good. like the power #'s. i am a fan of the 1jz.

mate i drift in 1 and its only 1400 kgs with all the usuals removed but it makes bucket loads of power and i hav the potential 2 lighten it further but it also has great stabillity and suspension upgrades hav further enhanced the handling i say theyre a great car!

its not a wastegate a wastegate is when the car is at full song and bypasses the exhaust gases past the turbo! what ur hearing is a blow off valve it releases built up turbo gases in the intake and vents to atmosphere (well this 1 does anyway).

its a waste gate, it release the pressure from the turbo after its built up nd give the boost to the engine. i think lol

can anyone tell me what makes that sound when he changes gear? sorry im not really good with cars x)
Bas315 2 years ago
It's called compressor surge, you can look it up to hear some examples. It's because the blow-off valve isn't removing enough pressure in the boost piping so the pressure is being ran backwards into the compressor blades of the turbo and this is considered bad for a turbocharger because it increases stress.
