hey guys what is going on welcome back to the channel today we are
learning how to drive a rear wheel drive 2022 brz
in the snow as you guys can see it's decently cold out it's minus four which is actually not
too bad for a calgary day but we've got enough snow and i finally found a spot that i can
come learn how to drive my car now here's the thing i've been a front-wheel drive car owner
but this looks like a pretty safe place for me to come figure out how to drive
rear wheel drive figure out what this car's got going on and make sure that i can drive safely in
in wintry conditions now i have done some things already to the car to make sure that it's winter
ready because i will be daily driving this in the snow so the first thing that i did was got this
car wrapped fully ppf now if you guys haven't seen that video you can already go check it out
it's the one with the posh detailing they wrapped the full front end and then i also put on some
winter tires so we've got i think the gt radials these are studded winter tires i went with the 225
40 r18s and they fit pretty good they even kind of stick out a little bit over the rim of course the
rear end gets a little bit squirrely hopefully you guys will be able to see some examples as
we get going here let's start doing some donuts and figure out what this thing's all about so one
thing that's interesting that i did notice when you start up this car and it's really cold out
it does look like they actually keep you dialed back to you can only rev it up to around 45 5000
rpms i'm assuming that's obviously to protect the engine and once it warms up a little bit it goes
back to normal and you can drive the thing as it's meant to the other thing is that i do have the
kind of upgraded brz which means we get the heated seats which are super nice and they warm up quite
well and the other thing if you guys are looking at winter driving is that it actually gets really
really warm in here very fast so i actually really only keep the temperatures around 21.22 because
when you're at 25 like man it's cooking in here we've got the camera mounted in the back we've got
the gopro here ready to rock and roll so you guys can see what the rpms are looking like and all
that fun stuff let's get this thing rocking and learn how to drive i think it's gonna be fun to
drift around a little bit of course we gotta put it into track mode we can take away all the help
we want to go
so
all right we got some donuts see if we can turn it around yeah boys all right keep that going yes
so much fun oh my
i'm gosh try and get close enough to my camera
with the front wheel you always control it with like the brake or whatever but this is all
all throttled it's nice because you can have fun in like slow slow conditions
oh my god i feel like a pro
yeah boys
that's my buddy troy
what is that brother
huh
okay so you have to hold this to actually turn it all the way off
and then you get all the up all the off there we go there oh man i've been driving at half club
okay guys so my good buddy troy was just in the area because there's a car wash up here that we're
about to go to and he needed to wash his car but instead he stopped by and decided to drift my car
which is great he showed me that yes you can put track mode on which is awesome but then you have
to hold the traction control button for a while so it'll actually turn all the way off so i've been
driving this whole time in kind of granny mode with the abs still kind of kicking on and off on
me so we're gonna drift around just a little bit more but then we're gonna go to the car wash get
this thing kind of cleaned up a little bit and then we are gonna be putting on my first like
modification it's not really but it's my first thing that i'm gonna like screw onto the car
oh that is so much better okay let's uh
do a little drift it's a pretty forgetting corner so if we turn around
see if we can kick a little drift around this corner here get a little bit of traction going
yes whoa got pretty close to that front curve but just had to kind of mash the gas
make sure we stuck it out
there's cement boys this car is so much fun holy smokes like taking off the traction control
and really ripping on this thing doing drifts that you feel so in control of
this car points goes exactly where you want it the throttle response is incredible uh
what else the torque on this thing is everything you really need especially in winter conditions
of course when you're just daily driving this thing the torque actually off in first and second
gear is probably more than you need so i highly recommend getting studded winter tires if you're
going to be wintering this thing if you're not i mean if you've seen a lot of the other youtubers
online there's lots of torque for you guys to have fun on the road burning out in first and
second gear and whatever so if you're debating this car and you're debating wintering this car
it's a great time we're gonna actually head to the registry because i've got a custom plate
for this car i'm super excited about i also learned this holds lenses really well and if you
guys haven't seen my last video with the porsches in hawaii you should go check it out because we
are doing a giveaway of these freewell filters they're pretty crazy cool uh they've got like
a magnetic thing on them so you can go check out this post on my instagram if you haven't already
to see if you can win a set of these filters because they're really really cool really
great for creators like us uh or just anyone that wants to take photos of their cars or videos so
so clearly for those of you who have been wondering if you can winter daily
this car i hope that your questions have been answered because this car is actually a ton
of fun in the winter and yeah just get a good set of tires i picked mine up on a website
called pmc towers i'll link it down below they had tons of options some budget friendly some
of the more expensive ones mine were decently budget friendly they weren't crazy expensive
and then when it comes to spring i'm actually in discussions with a really cool wheel company
about getting a set of their wheels on this car so lots to come with this car we're obviously going
to try and lower it put some wheels and tires on it do a little bit of aesthetic stuff to it but if
the whole youtube thing keeps going well we will be building this thing out quite significantly so
make sure to subscribe like this video because it it all helps you know and then this car will just
get bigger better meaner cleaner uh all because of you guys now i do really hope that i can get
a hold of an exhaust soon i don't really want to go the obnoxious route i'm not really into like
super loud super crazy yet i think i'll keep like my first kind of stage of the build pretty clean
pretty cool but from what i'm hearing a lot of the exhausts in the older generations
do play over well so um yeah let me know what you guys think are some good
options down below and i'll look into those as we start to build the brz out
so there you have it guys the first install on the subaru prz i don't know in the car creative
license plate hopefully it'll live on hopefully passed on to many other cool cars but uh yeah
as you guys can see i'm really enjoying the subaru brz and if you want more interesting
content like this if you're into the brz cameras cars video that kind of thing that's what we do
here feel free to subscribe and otherwise i do hope to see you guys in the next video peace
