VR38DETT in a BRZ is this someones BRZ on this forum???
Someone posted this online and it looks amazing.
![]() Is this anyone here? Is it photoshopped? It looks great and would be an awesome project. For a reference I also attached a photo of my GT-R's engine bay so you can get a perspective of this size. ***I added a few more pictures for perspective on the size of the engine.*** It looks plausible and there are some settle differences that lead me to believe that it just might be real. ![]() -Nate

Top one is a photoshop. Bottom one doesn't show enough of anything to know what it's in.

clearly photoshopped unless they hacked in the GTR fenders with the engine swap, look at the left and right sides next to the intakes.

To me this would be just as awesome as an LS1 swap. I am not sure of the cost differences though… The VR38DETT engine can make big power with a small amount of modifications…

It could be that the angles are different between the photos but it appears some of the hoses are routed differently.
