    I love the way you showed the racing gear, you are not advertising, you´re showing a cool product from a sponsor that you guys know are good quality. A lot of bigger youtubers should learn from you guys. Great videos as always!

    Wow, watching this series and looking back to what the FR-S used to be, makes it all worth it. You guys have built one awesome track car, not to mention all the things I've learned, from tire pressures, alignments, and aero, to mention a few. Looking forward to watching more projects from you guys!

    I'd never heard of Speed Academe before, you came up on my recommended viewing. Just sat in and watched all the FR-S Targa and Track Build videos. Highly entertaining and educational. I love the other car's in the shop too, particularly that FD3S (I've had a few in my time) Subscribed to the channel and now off to watch a video on that Swift.

    Awesome job guys! You guys are one of the reasons I currently own a 240sx. You guys should get a s13 and build a auto cross car(plan for my s13). Everyone makes fun of me because its a "drift" car..plus it would make my job a little easier for me :).. Happy wrenching!

    • @speedacademydave
      @speedacademydave 9 лет назад +4

      +Kyle Tipton S13 is an awesome autocross car! I've autocrossed one back in the day and it was tons of fun. S-chassis are great for grip as well as drift. Pete's built a S13 or two in his day, but we could definitely build another someday.

    • @eoken1788
      @eoken1788 9 лет назад

      Yeah I have used the S14 brake upgrade video to plan out my break set up on my S13. I will be using Z32 30mm front and duel Z32 in the rear for my hydro e break but will be switching the master just like Pete said for better performance XD

    • @KyleTipton.

    I thought I spotted a Stanley socket kit! How do you guys like the kit?

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад +1

      +Travis Proteau Im not a huge fan of it, whoever designed the tool box made it impossible to remove the sockets with your hands, you always need a screw driver or allen key to pop them out. Plus our Allen keys rusted. :( But hey, it was affordable so can't complain too much.

  • @jorges2000
    @jorges2000 9 лет назад

    Geat video. I like the location of your shop looks like a cool place. Why trailer behind the car as opposed to hauling behind a truck?

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад +1

      +jorges2000 It's great in the summer but with no heat in the winter the shop is miserable haha. We have to drive the car for our Ontario1500 event, it cannot be trailered. Otherwise, we'd totally done that and saved our ears and backs from 3+ hours of driving in the race car.

    love the tow hitch so simple and if you guys wanna get it on and off fast you could use an electric impact gun like you would use for your wheel nuts

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад +1

      +Matthew Dolbey Yes indeed, the impact gun came with us on the Ontario1500 event but the 24mm socket did not... DOH!

    Would you go against towing with a BRZ ? Do you think it'd be bad for the car to constantly be towing heavy weight?

    • @speedacademy

      +Pstar467 We've thought about it. All it would take is buying a trailer hitch and bam! Trailer ready!

  • @sadigov
    @sadigov 9 лет назад +1

    Do you have the wheel and tire sizes/specs somewhere on your site? I am running 245 on 18x8.5 35 ET and the tires are sticking out a bit, especially in the front. No rubbing though. Will the larger offset like 40ET work better?

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад +1

      +sadigov Check this story for all the info: speed.academy/scion-frs-voltex-advan-racing-gt-toyo-r1r/
      +40 is the better offset and seems to be the go-to for the FRS/BRZ

  • @GladiusYTR
    @GladiusYTR 6 лет назад

    That hitch mount gives me an idea.. it could be a great "removable rocket bunny wing" solution. Bolt the wing to the hitch for downforce transmitted directly to the chassis, then take it off when the extra drag is useless on the drive home.. hmmm

  • @of_lion22
    @of_lion22 9 лет назад

    Love the FRS build guys!
    And the channel (subscribed)
    But.... Is that an E28 528e I see when Peter is backing out?!
    I'd love to see a video or just more details about that!

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад +1

      +NCD2294 there are a bunch of stories about it on our website (yes, it's a E28 528e...good eye!), but I guess we should really shoot a video about it sometime. Here's the intro story about it: speed.academy/project-dd-bmw-e28-intro/

    • @of_lion22
      @of_lion22 9 лет назад

      Love it! Just read the intro.
      I'll have to look at the other stories.
      Was the Euro bumper/front end swap costly?
      It really makes the E28 look much much better (and compact)

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад

      +NCD2294 It really does especially when the US bumpers are so big and bulky. The bumper swap isn't that costly, roughly around $500-$800 but there's a lot of work involved as you can see in the stories.

    • @of_lion22
      @of_lion22 9 лет назад

      Yeah I ended up reading them, quite the effort, certainly worth it!
      Though, I wonder how much an Euro 528i or something would cost to import. Since all E28's are old enough to be legal (especially in Canada).
      May be worth it to buy a Euro car instead and daily that. (Obviously for someone else hahaha)

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад +1

      +NCD2294 Watch for them online. I recently saw a euro E28 for sale here in Ontario for $6000 which is a great deal considering how clean and rust free it was!

    @esojgnhojnaitsirhc 8 лет назад

    Hey Dave and Peter,
    I've love the videos you make and really have changed how my BRZ is. Also gave a good insight on boost. Cooling mods. And aero on the platform. Just wanted to ask what your wheel and tire spec's are. I can't find them anywhere for some reason. I'm really love the fitment that you guys have and I'm looking to do the same.

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  8 лет назад

      +Christian Jose Great to hear we've helped you out. The tire specs are 18x9.5 +40 with 255/35R18 Tires.

  • @MC1796
    @MC1796 9 лет назад

    great information guys. Quick question, where do you weigh in on the Evo v Sti debate for track use. Will we ever see some awd time attack action?!

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад

      +MC1796 I actually own an EVO VIII that will hopefully get into some videos before the winter sets in here. As for which I prefer, let me start off by saying that I've driven almost every generation of Evo and STI to land on North American soil and if you're looking for a daily driver that's also a fun and safe track car then the STI is the way to go. However, if you want a very capable and fast track car thats still somewhat decent for the street then the EVO is the way to go.
      The Evo has a better engine platform, both the 4G63 and 4B11 are capable of big power and reliable for track abuse. The suspension is already amazing, a set of good quality colivers and you'll be fast out of the box. The IX and X have AYC which makes them rotate exceptionally well at the track so they're a blast to drive. That being said, it's noisy and cheap as a daily driver (The X is much better though), it gets poor gas mileage and has a small trunk.
      The STI has a less reliable engine and requires much more mods to make big power reliably. The 6-spd transmission is way better than the 5spd the Evos come with for daily driving use so it gets better gas mileage. For track use though, up until the latest generations all STIs tend to understeer quite a bit and require a lot of suspension mods (anti-dive, roll bars, bushings, etc.) to correct so the costs are much higher to get them to perform like Evos. The new gen STI is much better but I still prefer the Evo as a track car. For daily use though, the STI has a nicer interior, better build quality and much useable space.
      Hope that helps!

    • @MC1796
      @MC1796 9 лет назад

      +Speed Academy Thanks for the detailed response, that's my opinion as well. The evo motors make power more easily and safely than Sti motors. Subaru does know how to make a much nicer car though.

  • @doctorscoot
    @doctorscoot 9 лет назад

    How do you find it drives with the trailer? The owner's manual of the thing does say "this car is nor recommended for towing" after all. Which I would suspect is down to the transmission and diff.

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад

      +Scot Mcphee It drove completely fine, this trailer with all the wheels and tools weighs about 400lbs so it's not that hard a load on the car but Toyota won't recommend it since it's always a liability.

    • @doctorscoot
      @doctorscoot 9 лет назад +1

      warranty void! but I think you've done that already ;-)

    • @speedacademy
      @speedacademy  9 лет назад

      +Scot Mcphee Yeah, something about a roll cage, supercharger and no interior may not fly with warranty claims. But seriously, just because it says not recommended doesn't mean it shouldn't be done. Just keep the weight down and you'll be fine in our books.

  • @dexLR8
    @dexLR8 9 лет назад

    Does it only seem to me that your FRS is now more quiet than the episode before?! If not, earplugs FTW

    • @speedacademy

    Nice hitch and trailer. If the trailer box is only held down by ratchet straps - ROOKIE MISTAKE…
    The box should be held down mechanically by nuts and bolts thru the bottom of the box.
    If the ratchet straps becomes loose (That can happen easily) goodbye tool box - and I pray for the motorist following. If they don’t get killed, the can be seriously injured.
    Bolt it down fellas. I may save someone’s life AND your tools and equipment.

      +Speed Academy Well kudos to him. Hey Dave or Peter, I know this is off topic but, when you guys are putting the ITBs on the AsS2000 are you guys also planning on changing the final drive? The Kia Sportage 4x4 has a 4.77 final drive that fits, also I think a 4.44 would work well also.

    • @speedacademy
