i guess you are right. just noticed the grille.
i only saw the wrb paint and yellow headlamps before.

would they not use the same engine/setup since that's been working in the past though?

No idea. we'd have to ask the team that. I wonder if we could get them on here to talk about the car a bit.

There's got to be someone who knows someone who knows a dude who can make this happen.

I'm waiting to see their FA16 turbocharged engine in action...where ever it'll be. More so, looking forward to getting my hands on it

I'd expect the biggest change between the B4 and BRZ GT cars will be the body work.

there's more info about the B4 on the Subaru global site:

oh, and you can even get a dry sump system just like it

The turbo in the picture is internally wastegated, so it's definitely not a TR30R.

Would some of you agree that the BRZ was built b/c of the SuperGT series? Dont you have to have a road version of your race car to compete in this series? I'm sure what the rules are; just a thought.

stinky180 · 12-10-2011, 09:00 PM

pretty sure the brz is out in Japan

This is good news. I'm less disappointed.

lol missing facts yes, but looking at history we dont see anything close to what they ever sell overseas. Look what cars the US gets WRX and STI, now lok at what they get across the pond, options are endless on what kind of Subaru u want.
