BRZ engineering video shown at Tokyo Motor Show. Japanese translation needed please. - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Anyone seen if this was shown with english subtitles anywhere? It is kinda long, but anyone want to translate the important info for us non-Japanese speaking/reading people? Looks like some potentially cool info from the Subaru engineers/designers.

Thanks I think it looks awesome too but I don't know what they are saying lol

Good find.

95% of the stuff said in there was pretty much already known/talk bout (low CoG, pushed the engine back and so on).

I'm currently at work and forgot my headset to listen carefully on more detail info nor I have a time to translate all of em, sorry (my boss is on my ass checking to make sure I'm working on the project

)...

Talk about a ninja title change lol. Just kidding Hachi. This is better than mine.

Trust me, a ton of stuff... like stats of check-in & out & new Policy stuff. Don't think that Library staff sit there and just read books. Sometimes it's heavy labor work and busy stuff!

Currently, I need to make stats & editing patron's account before new year come... Assistant Manager should be doing these stuff... but we don't have one for almost a yr and I have been doing that job

Sorry for the

+1 for Librarians. My first job out of undergrad school was with a metropolitan Library system. Awesome skill set that can be used a lot of places, but doesn't get much respect, unfortunately.

Back on topic...since they are making all of the AS1's at Gunma, are they opening a new line at Yajima, or at one of the other facilities? Thought they might mention that somewhere in the video...

Pretty good video. Looks like the BRZ was doing pretty good in the snow scene. That makes me feel better that it will be ok in the winter with a proper set of winter tires.

Quick question, why are the front wheels spinning @ 5:32?

Dynometer! Err well probably not the same purpose but similar concept.

cyde01 · 12-16-2011, 01:15 PM

ok aside from the usual "we were shocked at how low we could put the engine" or "we were shocked at how far we could put back the engine" the only thing i found really interesting was that they said "every test driver was smiling when they got out of the car. that was a first for us to literally see everyone smiling as they got out."
