![]() ![]() FT86CLUB Homepage Featured Story A Japanese test group has just been spotted at the Nurburgring driving what appears to be a prototype for the Subaru BRZ STI. This Subaru BRZ was being driven by some Japanese drivers, and accompanied by a rather large Japanese contingent off-track. The car wears most of the BRZ STI parts previewed by Subaru so far - black front splitter and new, lower side-skirts that both wear STI badges. STI badged brakes can also be seen behind new 14-spoke, STI branded wheels. The dual exhaust tips look to be significantly fatter than the standard models, filling the slots in the rear valance. Finally, a large fixed rear wing is bolted onto the rear deck, though it's slightly different in design than the one seen on the BRZ STI Concept. What other performance upgrades this model boasts is not yet known, though if it had any sort of turbocharging (rumors), it would possibly have Subaru's trademark functional hood air scoop in some form. Photos are posted below. |

What are they gonna call it? Ts or STi? Kinda cool that me and lanez have more STi bits than STi does.
You can tell that it had the Limited wing on it and they put little white stickers over the holes. So it's got: Lip Sides Wing Brakes Rims We need an under hood shot. |

New intake manifold to remove the dip in power.
New air intake and exhaust. That is all. Now move on. Go about you business. Nothing to see hear. |

That wing is close to what I want, outer mounted, maybe not as high. About ten inches high.

the wheels look they need spacers or something imo - regardless... this seems nice, hopefully it does have FI - though i doubt it.
the hood scoops are normally also only for TMIC's i cant see an obvious FMIC/SMIC in the pics though

Though its just cosmetic, I hope they do away with the black brake calipers. I truly miss the gold on the WRX Sti's
