I think they would probably cut you a deal after getting the short block from them and maybe 8-9K total? Just a guess. I think it depends on how much you like their power delivery, very very peaky early and then it dies off at the end.

I'm not planning on any FI mods for 2 more years so my financing is done and warranty is done, but I am very interested in this one.

Plus need to see dyno graphs

Wow, this is outrageously awesome!

I've heard it in person and it didn't sound like that. It may be the microphone that they're using.

I love how Matt said that the car was running poorly above 4000 RPM.

Most pointless 'review' ever.

A guy that shits himself when it finally stops surging/misfiring.

Way to go.

go look at him drive a venom gt, a supra built by titan and a shit loads of 1k + hp cars. Its not pointless, the show revolves about him driving and showing as the basics of a tuned car by somebody.It true he doesn't go into a shit load of details, nor does he show the limits of the car, but you have to remember its on an open road with barley no camera crew or huge ass funding :happy0180:

ft_sjo · 05-14-2013, 12:26 AM

I wasn't talking about the lack of show-boating. I was talking about a broken car being driven slowly by an ape with plenty of opportunity for Crawford to claim they're Gods.

We need a shootout between this Crawford BRZ and the FBM 604hp FRS
