Subaru BRZ

Subaru BRZ

I've spent way too many hours in this car and I'm not sorry about it. 228 hp, 2.4L Naturally Aspirated Flat-4 (FA24), and a chassis that talks to you.

Vehicle Specs

SpecValueNotes
Speed5.5Upper end tapers off a bit — tune the final drive to fix this
Handling7.8Front-end bite is incredible. You can carry speed through corners that should be impossible
Acceleration5.5Loses a bit of steam above 120 mph. For circuit racing it's not an issue, but on long straights you'll notice
Launch5.8Needs a bit of throttle modulation, but once you find the sweet spot it's consistent
Braking6.5Consistent lap after lap. No fade even after 20 minutes of pushing hard
Off-Road4.0Ground clearance is the limiting factor. Everything else works, but you'll bottom out on big jumps
PI (Stock)620Decent for its class. Room to grow with upgrades

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Stock tune is surprisingly competitive. You can win races without touching the upgrade menu
  • Gearing is spot-on out of the box. No awkward gaps in the powerband
  • PI efficiency is excellent — punches well above its number in the right hands
  • Absolutely glued to the road in medium and high-speed corners

Cons

  • Oversteer on lift-off can catch you out if you're not paying attention mid-corner
  • A bit one-dimensional. Excels at one thing, mediocre at everything else
  • Understeer on corner entry when you carry too much speed. Trail braking helps but doesn't cure it
  • Stock suspension is too soft for serious track work. Budget for coilovers
  • Visibility in cockpit view is not great. A-pillars block your apex view

How to Get It

Wheelspin

Wheelspin luck required. Pro tip: save your super wheelspins and open them in bulk. Doesn't change the odds, but it feels better.

Drift ZonesA-TierVery capable. A few setup tweaks away from being truly elite.
Dirt RacingC-TierNot its natural habitat. Bring it here for fun, not for wins.
