Probably just a matter of time, just like the Porsche pack. MY hope is they get the BRZ, but the FRS or GT86 is fine as well.

Ditto... actually, I wish for BRZ instead of FR-S, cuz GT86 is already there.

I think it is different from the 86. It doesn't seem to kick out as easily and the power band may be more accurate.

The torque dip is still not modeled. The torque curve is almost the same as that in GT 86. Well, the good thing is that it is LHD now.

Looks like the same aero kit as the GT 86, which is in my sig =P

Thanks for the info. Did you find anything different than GT86? Other than badge & LHD?

I bought an Asphalt and put a set of TE37's on it in white, put just the color matched lip kit...and damn it's so sexy. I will get a pic put up later.

It seems though it does drive a slightly different. It seems to have more mechanical grip, even with Comfort Hard tires on it. I left off the wing, power tuned a little over 300+hp and have TE37's and ground effect kit. DAMN is this thing a blast to drive. I put all the suspension parts, and left them untouched. So, no fine tuning on the coilovers, drop and what not. I only tuned the LSD. The tail comes around just enough and rotates perfectly. SUPER blast to drive at the Nurburg. You can stay on the throttle so much. Most cars if I were to dip a tire into the grass at the Burg, it's a done deal. This though, you dip a tire, I can stay WOT and just steer the fish tail out cause the steering is so responsive.

The bummer is though, that mod wise there is no difference than the GT86. Would have loved to seen a different body kit or maybe a S/C option.

As far as driving feel, I found no difference; I think they tried to keep the difference visual and LHD only like how it is IRL; One thing I did notice on the FR-S is sthat the headlights look smoked & not chrome at all; maybe they realized that's how it should have been IRL too haha; also, I thought the wheel gap looks a lot less in game than IRL stock, but looking at front bumper-to-ground gap, it's probably shadows playing tricks on me

Nope, no boost. Maybe it's in my head, but it did feel different driving to me.
