Toybaru BRZ/GT86 in 'not actually slow' shocker!

[tony_danza]

Seems sub 8:30 BTGs are quite easy, in something that's apparently slow.

Just goes to show that sorting handling, brakes and tyres is worth a lot more than chucking more power at a car.

So what exactly is a stage 2 tune on one of them? Intake, full exhaust and map?

Goes well.

Sounds like its on R888s

[rich83]

So.... How much for all those mods then? €800 for front brake pads.... what else?

That is a well set up car, balanced and  neutral throughout. I would hazard a guess some wonga spent on running gear. There is no body roll whatsoever on the bends.  I am firmly on the fun factor side of the fence put a knarley exhaust on that NA engine and get them well set up and for me it will be far more rewarding taking that on track than having a 350BHP wall of power.

Are they still going to make the 280hp BRZ STi?:

[Top Cat]

Dont know but you would have to be Japanese to see anything in those mirrors.  ( it was a joke ny the way i am not a raceleist.  )

Same BTG times roughly as clio sport cups?

[Scottymon]

You can get some larey turbo kits for these in the states... supposedly, 650hp on the stock motor!

Subaru are releasing an AWD Turbo Convertible two-seater Diesel Hybrid BRZ.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Well if that doesn't ruin the car, nothing will!
