    Putting in an ls2 engine into the brz is completely genius! He pretty much increased the power to weight ratio 200% and by only adding on an extra 200 lbs, the car is still significantly lighter than an ordinary corvette

    Love it and now I'm rethinking the FA20 build with forced induction and instead prefer to go with and LS. I was going to spend around $25k on making a reliable 500hp with the FA20 but now I've got to go back to the drawing board.

    The old LS1 cars (with 350hp) did it all the time. Since they upped the displacement the rating is a bit lower, but people still achieve high numbers. A friend of mine had a ~400hp LS1 RX7 that consistently got 32mph on the highway.

    @HakeemKazak 10 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Cool engine swap, but personally I am not a big fan of swaps especially when it is a bit unbalanced like this. The engine for me is the heart of a vehicle, it gives the personality and has much to do with the balance of the car. The LS is so much more suited for a FMR layout. The FA20 in the GT86/BRZ was specifically designed to fit a FR layout with a mid-engine feel due to how low that thing sits in the bay so I assume considering the placement and weight of the LS the car probably loses much of its neutral balance. Though I am still impressed by how cleanly the LS sits in there. When the GT86/BRZ first came out I was skeptical about how much room you would actually have to work with but it seems pretty straightforward swapping in a LS or 2JZ.

    • @lucidarik
      @lucidarik 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      You seem to know what you are talking about considering I had to Google just about every acronym you used. I'm 17, and I am fairly interested in cars. I have a Mercedes 600 sel with a 400 sel engine in it as a daily driver. I want to get into modifying cars, but I don't know where to start. I have the budget of a 17 year old, so I know the advice you could give me is limited. I want to save up money and eventually buy something inexpensive to repair (thus not to old), sporty (thus 200+ hp), and easy to modify (thus not too much electrical stuff). Is there somewhere I could learn to work with cars as a hobby without making it a full-time job? is there a car you would recommend investing 5k into? I considered the MR2, but I don't know. How much would modifying a car to a medium extent set me back?

    • @HakeemKazak
      @HakeemKazak 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      lucidarik Biggest help by far = online car forums. Find a car you like or are interested in buying/modding and join a corresponding forum. For example, many BRZ/GT86/FR-S enthusiasts are registered on www.ft86club.com where everything is discussed like instructions on installing specific parts or common known issues and how to fix them. As far as choosing a car, it really is up to you especially if you are going to be heavily modifying it. The Mercedes may be tough to keep as used German cars are typically expensive to work on and parts can be difficult to get but if you really like the car then go for it, just research online to see how much mods will cost you. The MR2 is a very popular car to mod and there are dozens of forums online for all three generations of it. However, just be warned, finding a nice used stock MR2, whatever generation, can actually be a little expensive now.. Used stock Japanese coupes have really gone up in value in the past decade, a stock Mark IV Supra for example is almost unattainable. As far as how much it can cost, in my experience if you are going to be doing forced induction, like installing a turbocharger, then you will need at least $10,000 in mods alone because if you are going to be properly modding a car you have to upgrade everything like the brakes/suspension/tires/etc.. Some people just slap on a turbo and get a cheap tune which is cool I guess but that makes the car pretty unbalanced. With $5,000 USD it will be tough to find a nice stock sports car but look long enough something will turn up. The reason I would go stock is because buying a modded car most oftentimes just leads to problems that will cost you more money in the long run.
      In short, just join a car forum :)

    • @FullMetal-nu8bj
      @FullMetal-nu8bj 10 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      The LS engines barley weigh more than the FA20. The LS3 weighs about 7lbs more. They are aluminum block V8's. If you look at Ken Gushis reviews he states the car still retains its balance.

    • @HakeemKazak
      @HakeemKazak 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      FullMetal1717 where did you get that idea? The LS is no doubt a very light V8 but it still weighs more than the Camry's V6 for example... I haven't seen exact weight stats on the FA20 but if we compare it to Subaru's other 2.0s there should be at least a difference of 100 pounds..that difference is also exaggerated by the CoG a boxer has versus a V engine, because again, that boxer sits low as hell for a reason. The car Ken tested probably retains its balance because of a major suspension upgrade which on a track is fine, but I would imagine many people would find it stiff as hell on public roads.

    • @bliglum
      @bliglum 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      FullMetal1717 The Chevy LS V8 weighs 200 lbs more. FA20 - 260lbs, Chevy LS 460lbs.. And all that extra weight is in all the wrong places, ahead of the front axle, and much higher up. It's like driving with an adult deer strapped to your hood.. .
      Still. Not a bad choice if you just want a drag car, or a steer it with your right foot drift car!

  • @twinturbo3470
    @twinturbo3470 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    its probably a crate LS2 from GM. They can be purchased (like the LS3) in a variety of different HP levels beyond the factory specs from the Corvette. They use the LS3 in the "Flying Miata" and its rated at 480hp which I though was weird since its rated at 430HP in the Vette. I contacted the company and they explained the crate engine thing to me. Thats why they dont put an LS7/427 in a Miata because from a cost stand point it doesn't make sense when compared to the cheaper LS3

  • @Blackgam3r

  • @nightdevil6666

    Much better setup going with the Crawford IMO, still get to keep the boxer which is a good thing but the only drawback is i hear Crawford hasn't figured out the overheating issues :/. but for 20 grand i think having the Crawford BRZ is a better investment. But LS2 sounds purdy and makes good torque to power ratio soooo i guess it all boils down to preference

    This is one of those no brainer ideas that just doesn't quite work in the real world. I'd rather have a detuned LS1 to keep the power to more managable levels for the weight of the car. 300 rwhp in a 2750lb car is more than enough for most people. Excellent execution and im sure the thing is stupid fast, too.

    LS2 10,000$
    Kit to do it: 8,000$
    Labour if you cant do it yourself: 1000$
    Total: About $20,000 with taxes
    30,000$ car (after taxes) + 20,000$ = 50,000$ total
    + stickier tires, better rims etc probably around the 50,000$ price range in total for this
    I could think of better ways to spend your money. For example, you could easily throw a crawford turbo kit on this and get similar performance. But the naturally aspirated LS2 would probably still destroy it.
    If I had the money I would do it. I wonder what the 0-60 time on this car is. I cant see it ruining the balance too much after you put on the bigger rims/tires. Maybe adds an extra 150lbs. In total with the tires and everything maybe 300lbs in total to the car. With double the horse and like triple the torque that wouldn't be an issue.

I will say that the twins will not get 40mpg in manual trim. I don't know about the auto though. I'd love to get my hands on this one though just to see what it can do.

      People always say this on videos as if they know how long it's been since the engine was running. Maybe he just got there, shut off the engine, and people asked him to fire it up right after. You will never know the truth but you assume the guy is a moron.

      @woutervanmoll 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      they filmed the exhaust and there was no condensation coming out so it wouldn't have been terribly cold. Besides he didn't rev it that high either. It sounds like it because its a bad ass engine :P I wouldn't throw it in my BRZ though...

    what is the thing in the description about the LS2 Z06? I could've sword the Z06 has never come with an LS2? I could be wrong but I thought the c5 still had a 5.7L and the c6 had a 7L...

  • @bliglum
    @bliglum 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Oh, ok.. Sorry, it's rated at 25/34.. You're right, I was WAY off! LOL.. Meanwhile, the Corvette is rated at 16/26... Now, one could argue that the Corvette's EPA rating is conservative, but the same could be said of the BRZ/FRS numbers, as I've heard that they can do better than 40 on the highway.

  • @fartcan28
    @fartcan28 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wondering the same thing. Would this be less than a 2014 stingray, which starts at ~$51,000.
    I would easily say 20K ontop of the price for the car, but with the reselling of original parts, not sure.

    • @unlisted9494
      @unlisted9494 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Depends on what you have, and what skills you have for fab work. You can get a chevy 5.3 from a truck for $500, you can can get an ls2 and t56 pullout from a GTO for $4000, and you could buy all brand new stuff for quite a bit more than that. The best way to do this is probably with a crate LS3. Zero miles, 7 grand gets you 430hp/430lbft with OEM reliability. After that, you could get a TR6060 for about 2 grand probably. You're up to 9 now, factor in wiring and ECU probably another grand, $1500 for a driveshaft assuming you want alu, and probably $1500 for a decent differential.

    I find this video odd. What other mods does the car have? The LS2 is not the Z06 powerplant. That would be the LS7. The LS2 came out of the 05-07 base model corvette and is pushing far less than 500hp.

    I'm not sure where you are getting your info. The automatic BRZ doesn't even get 35 mpg. The manual is rated at 30. I averaged about 28 in my C6 corvette and was able to get 32 on numerous road trips. My BRZ averages anywhere from 26-30.

    Touche. It appears the ratings change hurt the corvette a bit. Looks like the EPA gave it a 2mpg hit. My sticker says 18/28. The 16/26 number is most likely more realistic anyway.

  • @Y10Q
    @Y10Q 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Stock BRZ engine is hell of a lot stronger than an STi engine, and there are plenty of STi engines with 500hp out there.If STi can take 500hp easily, BRZ will do 650hp. So putting a V8 with 500hp is pointless and a waste of time. You just added 250lbs to the front of the car, for no reason. Now if that V8 was making 1000hp, that would be different.

    • @topshatta94
      @topshatta94 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      For the fa to put out 650 the block will need to be sleeved, force induction with ridiculous lag but with the v8 all motor with upgraded internals that motor can easily make 700

    • @josepayan3353
      @josepayan3353 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Y10Q Stock BRZ is making the same torque and HP as my 2011 honda accord. An STI has 270hp stock with the turbocharger and also has a larger displacement. The STI limited has 306hp and 290ftlb of torque, it blows the BRZ out of the water

    • @korefighter

      I think it redistributes the weight to 54/46 but I'm not 100% sure. It's an aluminum block V8 I believe so they are pretty light.
