  • How do you build a car like this on such a tight budget? Luck! And some friends that are great at spotting deals.
    Set up for drift and does it very well on a very small budget.
    The car + most of the swap parts were included at $3500
    T56, Fidanza Flywheel and SPEC clutch $2000
    Teminator X $500 (after selling the Fitech that came with the car)
    Free junkyard 5.3
    And a few other stuff to make it a killer drift machine bring the total to just under $7000!
    FRS BRZ GT86

    This dude is a hustler. The problem for most people is you won't find the deal you want nor have the patience for them to pop up. I would double the cost to build and still be okay with that. I would definitely pay the big bucks for a properly integrated wiring harness for a street car but that is my preference. I would love to have a car like this.

      Yeah got to hustle to put something like this together on the cheap. Lots of patience and negotiating required. To be honest the Holley style standalone is the only way I would do it if I did it again. Although some friends have the wiring specialties harness and its nice to have everything integrated, the simplicity of Holleys system has saved my ass when it comes to troubleshooting to keep the car on the track. And I really wanted to have drive by cable.

    Damn, $7k including the chassis and a T56 is insanely cheap. Nice work, l also have an FR-S and drift at BIR. Saw your car at the end of last season and it looked great. Hope to see you driving again this year!

    Pretty much what I want to do. In search of my 2nd ride an nothing really interested me, Then I came across the Brz on accident an as a person that enjoys making the car my own creation, I think I might just do this. My main concern was the fitment an wire harness issues. Don't even have the car yet, but I think this is the direction I'm going to go. Might have to hit u up for some tips later on... nice build dude

    Damn 7k for the build ain't cheap but definitely isn't bad either probably similar cost to turbo or supercharger build but the ls would definitely hold more power and last longer

    • @roma_drifts
      @roma_drifts  2 года назад +3

      Well considering most get just the car for 7-15k, 7k total all set up and swapped is great in my opinion. Deffiantly right about it lasting longer, I've seen these pop at 50k Na .

    Hey Roma, im researching on doing a budget swap my self and im wondering instead of buying a sikky oil pan for $800 i can just use the Canton Racing Road Race Series Wet Sump Oil Pan? which is around $350? Also could you elaborate a little more on the clutch master cylinder was it easy to swap in the one you did or did you have to modify it a bit more?
