If you do one of these swaps, get the 2022+ alternator AND bracket.

You can trim the old bracket and almost make it work with a 2022+ belt but mine always had a slight squeak similar to the...

Keep in mind the fa24 swap didn't exist when I started this. The k24 has about 1k rpm of powerband on top of a fa24, which might matter to some people. I'm also not convinced that fa24s are fully...

Investment HAHA all of this is burning money you will never get back. I never said it was worth the cost or that I could afford it. Just that I would go K24 over a FA24.

17x9 for BRZ/86 is great. Not so hot on the ET48 offset though. I expect that to rub bad on the inside front when paired with camber and good tires. Why did you go with that instead of ET35 or ET40?
