Just wait till the Nameless strut bar comes out too. Extremely nice piece.

It is rear-wheel drive. Our facebook has pictures and links back to the builder (Nameless) & driver (Will).

Where can I buy those mudflaps on the nameless car? Those would be perfect for me since I live down 3.5 miles of gravel road. The Rally Armor ones just aren't quite enough.

Just watched this...nice to see the BRZ in another environment....maybe the babies on here trading-in because of rattles and noises can strip the interior and race rally instead.

We built that car from the ground up. The rear end is completely redesigned, it has a quick change differential from speedway engineering as well as a 6 speed sequential rd6-s gearbox from Holinger engineering in Australia.

There is some pretty trick stuff we did with the cage as well. As I am sure you guys know, these cars are tiny. Something you may not know is that Will Orders is a very tall person. This presented the challenge of actually fitting him in the car once the roll cage went in. In order to fit him, we designed the cage to run through the body at a few points both to add extra cabin room and to stiffen the chassis.

The engine is a work in progress. We currently have our prototype turbo kit on the car with a stock engine. We are working with a few sponsors to get a built engine in it for the 2014 season so we can make the power we want.

At the New England forest rally we took second place in 2wd. We took 3rd place overall on the last two stages only training Ken Block and David Higgins by 25 seconds.

Once the car is dialed in more we will be aiming for overall podium at every event in 2014.

We are currently looking for sponsors for the 2014 season for both operating money and parts. Please contact me at john.h@namelessperformance.com for more information in sponsorship opportunities with a world class team.

Is he not still on Ford's payroll? They'll try to rally a Mustang. Solid rear axle will be fantastic for rallying. Bump, skip, skip, crash.
