I'm going to assume since they said 2.4 boxer it is not fa20 powered otherwise they probably would have stated it was a stroked fa20 . Either way still a sick car

BRZ body ≠ BRZ.
If you've got a tubular chassis, and a different motor (just an assumption right now), I just don't consider that a 7s "BRZ".

it's clearly a brz shell. it's not fiberglass on a tube frame. what did you expect from a 7s drag car? it's every bit a brz, for what we know.
