Would it be cheaper to build? Material cost isn’t what drives cost, it’s time on the assembly line first and foremost. Bolting in the rear seat belts and seats probably didn’t take any longer than...

Does this car have significantly more anti-squat than most FR cars? That could explain some of it. I’ve found my car to be very hard to hook at launch even on Michelin PSS tires on soft stock rear...

It’s only false if Ford doesn’t have their shit together. Other brands have long figured out how to make identical vehicles in facilities on opposite sides of the world.

The 2nd gen BRZ will have similar performance to…?

How? Power (kW) = Torque (N.m) x Speed (RPM) / 9.5488
Power output is not dependent on gearing. Effective wheel torque is.

The GR86/BRZ2 has 22 ft*lbs more torque though. Considering the S2000 has 9 horsepower more, I think this will all come down to gearing.

I never had an issue with the OEM rod, but If you must, Grimmspeed. They’re the only ones that considered reinforcing the hood in bending, since it wasn’t designed to be loaded that way.
