CR = Compression ratio ?

 

Yup!

 

12.5:1 is quite high I suppose!

Thicker HG?

 

the thing is... you add BHP you'll want to add grip, you add grip will you f@#k up those handling characteristics Toyobaru have done such a job on.

as much as it appeals this probably misses the point of the car, it's just a very selectively targeted one to my mind.

having said that now it's cold my S is quite tailhappy in the dry when the tyres are cold. it's time to consider putting the winters on i guess but i'm not a big fan

 

Evo review of the Litchfield BRZ was very positive

Sod the ethos, 300bhp and some decent tyres!

In that case, I'm out. Obviously it must be too Porsche-like...

Would you believe a 290 BHP Honda Legend on summers is unbelievably easy to drift?

 

Maybe the SH-AWD computers just make it seem easy?

Chris.

 

Absolutely - torque vectoring is rather fun.

Helps that it's got good DW suspension and hydraulic steering, and a bit of traditional Honda passive RWS for fine-tuning.

It's really rather different; I was never a massive 4WD fan before this one. Evos & Imprezas are very nice, but this has an adjustability and the incongruity of a great big luxury barge. The J35 makes nice noises, too.

I digress...

 

That vid is prett good actually MB

The Mclaren is bloody awesome but the caterfield looks most fun with the BRZ in second

In a race i'd want the Mac though

 

Fluffy, looking forward to seeing the GT86 and you (of course) later this month.

You've had me thinking about one of these for months now. All that talk about them having ISOFIX.
