a company (not sure who) but is designing a turbo kit for the boxer engine now. saw it on the speed channel lol. idk anyone here that has an fr-s but ive heard theyre a great car, personally i wish i could afford one. but since it has a subie motor, couldnt u possibly just buy bolt ons for that motor?

They aren't EXACTLY the same. They have their subtle differences between the manufacturers. I dig the color though. :goodjob:

both cars are made in the same factory in japan... only difference is the different front bumper and brz's come with a weird wing. other that some interior detail and led hid black housing head lights everything is the same. both parts with both cars.


Thanks for the comments guys! Waiting on the rest of my parts, pics will be up soon.

Read in motortrend or something along those lines that there are some differences in suspension tuning. Like one is more prone to oversteer than the other.
