everything is weird when you cross over into different car cultures, especially when you have been so accustomed to one. The FRS/BRZ/86 car culture would be the weirdest of them all..we have so many cultures coming together on this forum..it is a bit weird and people feel weird because their views may be not similar to the next poster, but i feel sorta refreshed.

Yes, it would actually!
![]() Thankfully I have a nice low-mileage 97 TT 6-spd in my garage that I am keeping from the power madmen... It has down+mid piping and an exhaust but that's it, and I have all the stock parts in my garage...

Now on the otherside, I'm planning on a doing a 300bhp'ish NA four for this car...which just screws with my head. I can see is now...'Here are two 4-cyl Subaru boxer engines. That one puts down 4-digits and this one about a fourth of that' ![]() Of course two very different uses. One is for Time Attack/Drag/Stanind Mile...the other is for fun and punchy driving. Nothing that makes you want to shit your pants

^^^so true. The next comes at the track when you are hungry for the corners but you're stuck in a slow car...so you have time to yawn, check your mirrors (so you can point people by), pick your nose, have a drink...and still anticipate arriving at the next turn
![]() joking of course but I do love corners but I also love the feeling of leaving a corner under heavy throttle and being pinned into the seat-back AND against a bolster while you start steering out of the corner and are ready to start tossing counter steer if the rear is coming out ![]() Then again, my serious corruption started years ago with Formula SAE... |
