Any level of support is welcomed and appreciated. L.A.SLEEVE intends for its BRZ to provide more than 500 horsepower out of a built and supercharged FA20. In issue #187, "Stop the Swap," we focused on the FA20 and why you should consider rebuilding one of these engines instead of performing a motor swap. While tuners have chosen to swap the 2.0-liter engines with everything from an LS to a 2JZ, and even a Ferrari 458 engine; we decided to stay loyal to the FA20. The goal is to build a complete, powerful BRZ that can not only reach the 500whp mark, but to also handle just as well. So, before starting on the engine, we turned our attention on the chassis, suspension, and brakes with the help of Peter Yeung at LMR Development to better handle the increased engine performance.
THE GOAL IS TO BUILD A COMPLETE, POWERFUL BRZ THAT CAN NOT ONLY REACH THE 500WHP MARK, BUT TO ALSO HANDLE JUST AS WELL.

Our dyno testing of a Club DSPORT built FA20 has shown that our goals are achievable when using a turbocharger. Now, we propose a supercharged 2.25-liter FA20 that is both powerful and durable.
Staying Grounded
For any well-built demo-car, the goal is not to show how fast the car can go from 0 to 60 mph. The goal is to show how complete the car is. We will be increasing the engine power by almost three times that of stock, which means we had to lower the car's height to improve its center of gravity and improve transitional weight transfer rates under various racing driving modes. Whiteline MAXG were chosen for our coilovers. The MAXG offer 30-60mm height adjustment for both the front and the rear, allowing us to control the height for various racing needs. The coilovers feature a 44.5mm diameter damper bore, which eliminates bending due to the increased surface area loading. The extra width on the dampers strengthen the hardware, enabling them to withstand higher lateral forces during hard corners. This also comes with the benefit of heat-dissipation characteristics to keep the shocks performing reliably and consistently. Any support to keep the videos coming.

The project was completed but the video series was cut short 🙄 for complicated reasons. however, you can see the whole article and the completed project here. www.lasleeve.com/tech/lasleeves-500whp-brz-build
The car still out their?
Yes
Man 2019, and your still the closes video to showing the proper rebuild of the fa20 and the individual steps. I hope you guys do another with a turbo, and record it a lot of people such as my self would watch the heck of it. Personally i'm in the process of my build slowly. My hopes are to one day pull the engine have it re-build + turbo + auto trans upgrade. It was still awesome to see it taken apart this far.
I have not seen any footage of the car actually running. i think it blew up lol
For all of those who think a swap is cheaper... Do your research.... It's more expensive to make a reliable 500whp 2JZ brz than you think
My dream was to 1j or 2j my brz until I added up the costs of everything. To damn expensive
You can just drop a Chevy 350 small block in it just gotta change drive shaft axles differential and mod fire wall and transmission tunnel since 350 small blocks don’t come with a computer just gotta run a power wire and the few things here and there
Maybe true, but the potential of a higher displacement engine is irrefutable. No fa20 is going to pull more than 600 HP realistically. A 2J/LS can do this with just a few upgrades.
@@kapoof2 people are getting out to 800 hp on the FA20 but the work needed is ungodly. 2.3 stroker, build CD009 trans and carbon drive shaft, crazy clutch, the list is extensive. But it can be done for around 25k in parts alone
@@dennisprow7576 Can be done for wayyyy less using a 2jz/LS, thats the whole point.
An actual in depth look into functional brz/frs mods??? Ive never heard of such a thing!!! Definitely looking forward to this series
Awesome, can't wait to see more, subbed!
Love it!!
"So it makes it just a little bit more fun than just having a front-wheel-drive vehicle that just burns the tires and doesn't go anywhere."
As a 21 years driver of FWD stick shift cars, I hear ya.
Nice!! Subbed
love it
I read that you guys were running the standard supplied gates belt for the Vortech kit and once you got to the 2.8" pulley and only saw 16psi you decided to get a GatesRPM belt. My question is was the GatesRPM belt slightly smaller than the standard one to reduce slack from the gradual pulley size reductions you were doing? Or was it the same size and just a stronger, less slip prone belt?
The real question here: How much did it cost?
A lot.
Way too much. For what they spent on this you could just swap for way cheaper and get much more power. I don't get the whole "stop the swap" bullshit. Those engined don't perform unless you dump asinine amounts of money into them.
TripleTapHK nice English
@@jesseramon5013 Oh no, my feelings. Nice thoughtful contribution to the conversation.
TripleTapHK your welcome
What about the clutch and the transmission? Doesn’t the stock manual transmission only handle like 320ftlbs of torque?
Anyone know if this the most powerful supercharged (Subaru powered... and not compound turbo/supercharged) Subaru ? I've never seen anything over 500.
Im looking for the vss on my frs is on the code p0500 how i can fix it
Damn see i would want to do that with my brz but i dont know how and i do t know how much it would cost and i was thinking of taking it to a shop and stuff but idk
This brz is for sale and has 50 miles on it.
There any videos of these engine builds 😒???and test drive ?
5/5
What shop is this that's doing all the machining and boring and all that? Is it LA sleeve?
Yes sir!
Yes how much did it cost and need a update video asap...

New 2022 brz next?
I might go for a naturally aspirated BRZ build IF for say $10k I could achieve a bullet proof 300 whp running just pump gas.. I would not want to wind up with more than $35k all in TOTAL in a BRZ so the budget might be 15k for a really nice low mileage used roller (a car perhaps destroyed via less than intelligent engine modding with no warranty recourse) ...then maybe a $10k budget for a motor build plus another $10k Max additional earmarked for sorting suspension, brakes , radiator and out cooler and misc trimmings... but as appealing as that might sound? I have to keep in mind that with really careful shopping using the same money I might very well land a really decent Porsche Cayman! which is already totally sorted out turn key arguably superior car with better resale value and so why would I even bother? Okay well the BRZ would be a significantly lighter car with all the good that comes with that but the trans/clutch/diff etc would be all stuff engineered to handle much lower power than the Porsche counterparts so theoretically more fragile car even if somewhat lighter
Sounds good in theory, but how do you actually plan to do it? Just throwing money at the problem isn't going to work. E85, with Header, Exhaust, bigger throttle body, Intake, and bigger fuel injectors might not even get you to 300 whp. For me, I am going Supercharged. It just makes sense.
If i sent my car to u and paid for the parts, could i hire you to build it?
500hp? That car is a loose cannon!
It handles really good.
@@bermcannonk show us some proof. No videos showing this car even starting. It blew up in the dyno didnt it xD
Nah it ran. And it was very fast. Here is more on the car. dsportmag.com/the-cars/project/la-sleeves-subaru-brz-build-part1/
This is the real BUILD!! Not make a stock car a widebody car..
Tbh the gt86 looks already good enough without widebody.
@@masashiiino6914 cant say the same with the 370z with those ugly headlights, but has the nice 3.7l engine
Man I'm so pissed, people are boosting stock FA20's and I'm here with a blown motor from a twisty road run 😠
Same here lmaoo 😂😭
@@MrDiaz143 oh nooo
At how much miles did you blow up?
Subscribed because I have a turbo gt86 😌
The question I'm after is it worth it? Or just drop a different motor inside
The car is worth it. Super fun. But with the motor hopped up. Wow. Way better and a head turner.
Okay thanks pal, don't get me wrong I like the FA20 but I'm tied between that or going down the VQ v6 route..but not sure whether to build the motor I have now or build the VQ35
Or just buy this car, its for sale has 50 miles on it. The complete build story is on www.lasleeve.com
As much as I would love to buy the already built brz.. I want to find my own feet with this car and do the build myself.. would be awesome to see some footage of the car on a track or few pulls down a street👍
@@j.andrews9669 Just swap it. It's nowhere near cost effective. You can get the same HP with a swap for a fraction of the cost with room for much more power if that's your thing.
How much???
28k its worth 45k but they want to move it. Call la sleeve ask for dave.
Btw motor blew
So no actual videos of the car running? Makes me think this was a failure. No videos anywhere
Erm..did you destroy the engine? Why no updates in the series? Stoked to see the results.
The project was completed but the video series was cut short🙄 however you can see the whole article here.

@@bermcannonk super unfortunate the build series was cut short. Will check out the article. Thanks for the info.
Disappointing that this series got cut
I know.......😒
@@bermcannonk did the motor blew?
Funner? It was never fun. Faster? It was never fast. A little bit track worth? That's an overstatement
Not your video, but nice try bud.
Its mine. Thx
