Thanks for watching!

I love where this BRZ is going. It a breath of fresh air amongst all the typical “big turbo”, “stage 5 tune”, “street warrior” projects that everyone harps on. Just simple effective mods with a different focus.

I'm patiently waiting for your winter snowy driving update. ☃️

I really love the way the 16" RPF1s look with that tire aspect ratio. It really leans into the whole F1 look.

Such an great car, I see you added the blind spot mirrors.. I'd argue these are a must in this car no matter what you are using it for. 10-20 years down the line this will be sought after, Who knows how long they will continue this formula and at this price point.

Thank you for making another great video with the BRZ.

In the next pov drive can you please drive the 2022 Mitsubishi Mirage G4

Returning to this video is making me not regret getting RE-71RS's for my daily lol

[Mr--S.]

I've had just the same tire size on my beloved Altezza 200 with Michelin Pilot Sport 3 and they were the best setup for a daily and as well for some funny trips into the Alps - very communicative, tons of grip, long life accaptence, just a gem for me...
My next fun car, the ND2 will be downgraded to a combo of 205/50/16 wheels for the same reasons!

I'm surprised about the heat soak but enjoying your take on the BRZ. I ran 245/40R17s for autocross but missed the whimsicalness of the stock tires. Weird but the sticky tires made the car a lot less fun, even though it is the faster autocross setup.

Look forward to the safari mods. The B in BRZ stands for Baja :)

Chris finally changed the bracelet on his speedy!

Topher - you mention the need for more power and also just coming out of a 300hp N. How would you compare the two in terms of which is the better drivers car and why? Steering, shifter, general fun-to-drive factor.

[gothops]

Dude how did you get a track all to yourself lol

[jerrybuffington]

So are you going to drive this all winter with snow tires or do have a different car you will use?

[devyntheunbroken]

you know, Im surprised you bought this car instead of any of the Germans. I respect that

[Theanhdy]

What new car are you getting to track? Elantra N? Manual or DCT?

[KTH]

It's a shame that the BRZ/86 are so niche that Toyota and Subaru can't justify more R&D spending to get the most out of the platform.

[SerPurple]

I really love the color of the BRZ. The wheels are very nice too!

Are you planning to add more horses to the car in the future?

[harontado]

Compare the acceleration of stock diff and 4.3 diff pls like 0 to 100kph

[paulshi]

I noticed that by changing the final drive, you lose the gear indicator...
Also, how well do the RE71-RS tires hold up after all these laps? Any major graining issues?

i love me a BRZ and a WRX but the 2022s really look bad. The tail lights remind me of an Accord tbh
