That'll make an LSX-swapped BRZ look pedestrian.

Age old story of swapping in a motor worth more than the rest of the car

This is insane. I like it. [MENTION=3307]IceCreamAssassin[/MENTION]

That'll make an LSX-swapped BRZ look pedestrian.

Makes swapping anything into it look like an act of a peasant.

And all of that work and money just to make a drift car.

good giggity god that's going to be the best sounding brz on the planet

seems more trouble than it's worth, but ok, neato

i've seen him twice now at the gridlifes in gingerman. he has some crazy knuckle thing going on up front so he can have really big angle. he is drifting on rs3s too, not sure what most people do but i figure you would put something crappy and not that sticky in the rear? but hey if you have lots of power and are not paying for it i guess it doesn't matter.

he pretty much comes into turn 1 extremely sideways faster than i think i'm normally taking it while driving a normal grip racing line...

 

[sickmint79]

that vid doesn't show how early and how sideways he is. some on my phone probably do but i'm feeling lazy as balls at the moment

At some point in drifting you actually want more grip in the rear. The better setup cars have very similar setups to track cars for the most part.

Then they have knuckles with the steering point moved to give more steering angle.

So awesome just because it's stupid. Really want to put something insane and stupid in mine.

An FRS/BRZ is perfect with a kraftworks supercharger kit. Reliable AF and tons of fun power. Not unless overpowered crap that people keep making for no reason.

The 458 swap is crazy though, that's going to be a cool car.
