Ask dan when the kit will be readily available for purchase. I'm dying for more angle, as are many others. I have a couple different options right now but I'm not jumping on anything until I have fully explored all options.

My buddy asked and they are getting close to a production version sooner than later

Yup, I always pull the ABS fuse out beforehand

TA knuckles and tie rod ends and a couple washers I got locally from 3R Racing to help correct tie rod angle. That's all there is to it.

Contact Tony Angelo at tony@tangeloracing.com for pricing.

Just saw this thread now!

Don't know how I had missed it.

We have been taking our BRZ to the Sonoma Drift nights at Sonoma Raceway as often as possible since we picked up the vehicle.

(A small bit of driving at the end of this turbo development kit video)

We have our drivers fill out an event summary after every event and I would love to share the relevant info you all.

Also feel free to ask us any specific question you may have!

Cheers.

In regards to tire pressures for completely stock vehicles,

our driver felt most comfortable with:

Front: 32 psi (cold)

Rear: 50 psi (cold)

We started at 35 psi front and 45 psi rear, but after driving more events ended up at the tires pressures mentioned above.


With the addition of more power (from our development turbo kit) he has brought the rear pressure back down to near stock pressures. One event at 32 psi (cold) all around and another at 35 psi (cold) all around.

I was doing some light drifting today, and 30 mins into my drive home this popped up...

Anyone know what's going on? If I bring it to the dealership is this type of thing covered in warranty??
