$56k LS3 Rocket Bunny Package
http://www.speedhunters.com/2016/02/...ls-ballsy-brz/
Key things: "This Rocket Bunny-kitted BRZ will soon be homologated as a Brill Steel complete car, meaning it will eventually be available for purchase throughout the whole of Europe and the world." "Enrico wanted to inject some serious fun into the compact chassis, and that called for removal of the original 2.0-litre flat-4. Its replacement, a tuned GM 6.2-liter LS3. The idea here was to keep everything as stock as possible, therefore maintaining factory-like street car reliability. This means that all creature comforts are retained, from the A/C to ABS, to a stock and fully-equipped cabin. The only thing is, the car now boasts a V8 soundtrack." "Drive is sent via a twin-plate clutch to a T56 Tremec transmission and onto an R32 GT-R rear end via a custom prop shaft. Seeing as the car now develops close to triple the stock power, Brill Steel will also throw on Brembo/STI brakes front and rear to help cope with the newfound performance. Oh, and in case you are wondering about weight, the LS3 and transmission combo only weighs 20kg more than the stock ensemble, and actually shifts that weight further back in the chassis for a nice, balanced feel." "Prices have yet to be announced, but Enrico thinks the complete car will probably sell for around the €50,000 (US$56,000) mark." "The BRZ runs Bilstein adjustable dampers at each corner and a choice of wheels depending on what the client wants. Valenti taillights and Miura’s signature ducktail spoiler finish off what is one hell of a package." http://speedhunters-wp-production.s3...6-1200x800.jpg http://speedhunters-wp-production.s3...03-800x533.jpg http://speedhunters-wp-production.s3...05-800x533.jpg http://speedhunters-wp-production.s3...07-800x533.jpg |
Not really a huge fan of the wide body kits but if that price is true for everything (motor, tranny, brakes suspension, body kit, etc) , its not too bad at all.
|
i agree, the price isn't bad considering the mods
|
Are those wide body kits reversible? Can you just unscrew everything and go back to the stock look? Or are the fenders ruined?

"Prices have yet to be announced, but Enrico thinks the complete car will probably sell for around the €50,000 (US$56,000) mark."
Price has not been confirmed. Seeing as the motor swap is 15-20k++ and the car around 25k I doubt the price will be anywhere near 50/56k. Throwing a low number guesstimate out is a good way to build hype. It's not even finished. No intake/exhaust/brembos. |
I'd be into it if the price was what they're quoting. But like @swarb said, it's quite optimistic.
|
Would have been cheaper to buy a slightly older Z06.
Hell, even an SS Camero. Just say'n. |
^This. Even if this was near $56k, might as well and get a slightly used 2015 Stingray instead.

Neat car. Too bad the Rocket Ninny kit looks like it was raped by a Decepticon.

Beautiful, tranny and engine in that thing
I don't know much about GTRs so I can't speak for the rear end I despise that crappy bolt on wide kit. It makes the car less If they were going to go thru the trouble, why not just mold it in I don't imagine they'll see a huge sales figure, so they would have time to do the body right. If they were selling 15 a month I can see, bolt it on and go but Everything about this car is right except that. It's a sleeper for sure and whoever buys this will have a ton of fun in it. For that price thought, I can have my Z06! |
