Prodriveguy says:

Daniel, it’s a remix of a Hans zimmer inception song…plays at the end

Daniel Hoang says:

What’s the name of this song?

lazy ass mother…

Pedro Ribeiro says:

Question, I live in northern California, I have an interest with the fr-s. Are there any companies that have places where you can take your car, but they let you use a jack so you can install springs and such?

FreeMatter4TheBlind says:

im having my h&r super sport springs installed monday with 18 inch enkie raijins and a perrin resonated catback! CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!

Shane Lee says:

Nice car I’d love to own one, I agree more power or a turbo would have been nice, but the cars not made to be a drag car. Great balance and a decent amount of power for the car being so light. That was like when I had my celica gts it only had 180hp and it was fwd which was a bummer, but it was so light it handled well. Its not alway about power

Wes H says:

agency power LCA

Derek Li says:

what is the rear lower control arm used on the car? Thanks.

joel montanez says:

And head light

emusoda says:

This guy is a real pro….using a impact gun with chrome sockets lmao

damiandrifts says:

I agree with you, i understand power tools for removal but for installation everything needs to be hand torqued to spec

Nic DilossI says:

I love that, the perfect height.. Not too low like many stupid cars

blackyiechan says:

they seriously dont have pillar-ball mounts??

vexx786 says:

what is the name of the song, i know its a inception time remix.

kensai69 says:

You will be surprised how many dealerships are doing the same practice. Other than critical engine bolts, they only use airguns for speed.

Roberto Perez says:

Premium fuel for a non premium perfomance and a piece of shit non premium interior… welcome to FRS/BRZ.

Brad Borkowski says:

It bothers me that nothing was torque’d to spec. Using an air gun for everything will result in all bolts being overtightened.

DcEvoIX says:

I love the stock suspension on my frs too, it handles amazing and the ride isn’t bone jarring.

smallermouse says:

needs spacers or flush wheels.

XlopenX says:

I’m pretty happy with stock suspension already~
Yes, you would get better lap times on coils, but only properly tuned..
But I would stay on stock if you are going half half. Only go coils if you are more serious about track and less on comfort. IMO

john smith says:

This music is epic. It sounds like what would happen if Airwolf and Blade Runner got mashed into Inception.

cacman1993 says:

Twin-charge being developed.

Wes H says:

what wouldnt it? its the same car…

gisenberg says:

well yeah but that’s only because it’s on stock tire width and no spacers so of course it’s gunna look a little goofy

Erik Gustafson says:

There is a fastidious road test of the BRZ here:

DcEvoIX says:

I work on cars all the time that come for swaps, boost, nitrous, right after leaving the body shop for expensive paint jobs and don’t use fender covers, they do more damage than help, if dirt is in between the surface just leaning on it with scratch deep, just be careful, it is a lift so you can get comfy to lean without much contact to paint. and I only use proper torque on bolts that have to do with internal engine part that’s why electric torque guns are made lol, hand tools suck.

Croissier says:

NA is best! I want to see a FR-S with 2 dual throttle bodies or something like this 😛 hachiroku style xD

ClaymoreQuickScoper says:

Inception music?

MrDjdez27 says:

damn I wouldn’t take my car there. unprofessional up the ass. no fender covers, using impact for everything and not using a torque ratchet. I’d be pissed seeing scratches on the black paint and then my bushings going out quick.

Ahsan says:

what will these brz coils do good on frs

Todd Edmondson says:

I think the current suspension on my new BRZ is pretty good. I can only imagine how it could be better. I do like the lower look though and likely will add coilovers one day and move up to 18″ rims with fatter tires. I think the wheels are too narrow. My plan so far is air intake, exhaust and coil overs with better rims tires. I don’t know if turbo or supercharger is worth it – the car is damn near perfect already, for the $ it’s just awesome.

Steven Foo says:

Installing everything with a rattle gun = bad.

StealthMongoose says:

This In Time remix is sweet.

XlopenX says:

a better rim with better offset will do the trick~
