- After hitting a Kangaroo at 100km/hour, this BRZ was successfully repaired. But it's never been driven so in this episode we take it to a Rally Sprint to give it a shake down. And during this process that we worked out that something's not right...

The Stig walking into the trailer at 9:38 is pure gold. 😆
Jesus I've just bursted out laughing at work. Thanks 🤣
was looking for this one , nice!
like the guy getting off his bike and walking into the street light pole lmao
That's who was really driving the brz
The stig hahahahaha
Did anyone else see the dude in the background walk into the ramp of the trailer😂 I feel his pain 9:40
I as well 😂 but you can't help but 😂🤣😂
I was just about to comment this lol its 9:38
Poor guy I felt it too.
He heard them say they were LS swapping it and lost the ability to walk
I spotted wannabestig earlier looking a bit random and lost
I love that mk1 Escort, thing looked gorgeous
It has a K24 in it, sounds amazing. The paint job is, interesting?
we all love a escort
Yeah, thats Bruce Garland's Escort. There is a video on Haltechs channel on it.
And who doesn't love Escorts?!!
The haltech CZcams channel has a build breakdown of it.
As a delivery driver I can confirm late braking and hard acceleration makes tons of difference by the end of the day 😆
yep lol agreed and I do it too
The brz is like that one car you pick at the start of the game that's bone stock against other high level players 🤣🤣
Starter car on final hypercar races
what's going on with these comment replies man jeez
He took it online lol
@@phrg8332 CZcams spam is getting ridiculous
That's the slow car people drive in Cape Town, pretending they're fast.
5:55 and on. This is how best friends talk to eachother and build eachothers confidence. You guys are such a good example of how to treat your friends. Proud of you guys
9:25 Always wear your helmet while walking around the car park. Safety first!
@@user-ft6sx9tq4j nice...
I think that was the Stig!
Looks like he actually needed shin pad actually
9:38 the white helmet person in the background and the thunk from them hitting there leg in the ramp is perfect
there's some mad dudes right around the corner from me (in the states) called K power industries and they've got a plug and play k24 swap kit for the BRZ, best part is when it's all in EVERYTHING STILL WORKS. It seems perfectly stock until you hear it or see under the bonnet.
Wtf are those replies?? Anyway, that sounds amazing
@@abitdazed spam bots
That’s what mighty car mods need to do. Cool builds.
k24 Honda engine?
@@JetzFFA correct
Martin :'Dude, look at you go!'
Moog: 'Look at US go Martin, we're a team!!'
Martin : 'Whoops, I got the map upside down."
I built an ls1 swapped subaru brz for a reasonable price, its totally worth it. It added about 40 lbs to the overall weight so didn't change the driving dynamic to much and had a conservative 350 to the wheels na. The head turning sound alone was worth it.
100% with ya on that. I wish it wasn't looked down on as much. As usual I expect them to add a turbo instead of a supercharger or v8, but an LS is what I would be most excited to see. As it is, they don't do american cars, they barely do european cars, they barely do rwd cars, and they almost always end up making whatever they have turbo. So this would be a cool change of pace. And while I'm sure it would be expensive, I think it'd be amazing to see one of these cars with a carbureted 240z engine, or the V6 outta the 370z : D
Impressively minimal weight gain. Who cares what people think/look down or up on, power to weight is what counts, especially usable power not just crazy boost barely driveable.
@@dunxy that’s one of the 2 things to makes the LS such a popular swap, weight and size
Chuck the battery in the boot to put the balance back to factory and fucken have at it!
40 lbs is not that bad, I thought it be more!
Contest time. Modded RX7 vs stock BRZ. You know it needs to be done.
GT86 owner here . By clicking that button you just activate VSC Sport mode, still have some stability control with tracktion. To turn off VSC and TC complately you need to hold the other button (Traction Control) for at least 5 sec.
Came here to say this, all the pedal dance does is also turn off ABS - which isn’t really necessary unless you’re going full drift mode and you want to be able to push the front end under braking with the throttle.
Good to see rally getting a mention!
My favorite part of this whole video is the STIG crashing in the background at 9:36
😂
"There's no such thing as too many LS swapped cars!" Such legends! :D
*K swap the world*
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
It’s true. LS swap the world.
Rob dahm would disagree 😂
I was going to say the exact same thing!
I feel like my favorite off-road channel doesn’t spend nearly enough time barbecuing and relaxing so close to Christmas. Guys, down under, it’s literally the most wonderful time of the year, isn’t it?
Summer time Christmas every year man,
They are wrapping a Christmas present for you right now. We will all get to open this one on Christmas day.
Any idea when the next vid is? I'm stoked to see what's coming for this 👌👌
Potential loop hole to get the car registered. Take off the parts that were repaired from the crash. Replace with new parts by a shop and get receipts.
Smart
Make your own receipts...
@@user-cn8di1qr9h that won't fix the car
Or jus2t buy the parts cheap with receipts. Leave existing parts on car use receipts then resell parts to recoop cash. Legit and simple no expense or work
@@sexygirls9720 same with you sena
The BRZ sounds amaaaaaaaaazing! Just a touch of growl when the revs get a bit higher. Can’t wait to see what you guys do with it!
I want Marty to be the co-driver in Dirt Rally 3, then I'll finally have an excuse for my pace.
Damn, oldschool MCM tunes hit SO HARD
9.38 the person smashing their shin on the ramp!
It was an audible shin smash@ 9:38
😬
yo the timing, i binge watch you all week and now that I'm looking for more vids when i should be getting some sleep for school you upload a new one lmao thanks a lot now I'm gonna fail
I love what the random guy said at the end “can’t have to many ls swapped cars” 😂👌🏼
Absolutely hilarious that Siri brought you to your own site to learn how to do skids in a BRZ 😂😂
Thanks for the free stickers! Just got them. You guys kick ass. Most of them are going on my '19 5.0 right away.. take care over there with all this B.S going on, hopefully you'll get over to Canada sometime soon. Merry Christmas from Battleford Sask Canada!
Thumbs up for the guy in the background at 9:39 who walked into the ramp. Hope your shins aren't too sore.
If it's destined to be a racecar only if you can't register it, i'm so down for a Honda K Swap! 😎😎
I dont know man. This is AUSTRALIA. 2jz is over done, LS is WAYYYYY overdone, k swaps are now becoming WAY over done. Do a freaking barra swap. do something that is different. please!
To be fair, if your first drive in a repaired wreck is at a performance event, and a fire extinguisher is not employed, that's a win.
Nice, looking forward to the rx7 stuff. This was fun too, nice to see the car out and about
Merry Christmas to us, more MCM!!!!
@mighty car mods
if you are going to LS, go supercharged LS. just once, you will not regret it.
I am so pumped that you guys got another BRZ. I love these freaking cars.
Their poo 🤣 needs another 100 hp from factory
@@StealthyyyHD you're poo mate.
@@YeeThirty my na 25 yo honda will chop it. Need to barra swap it asap
A barra looks mint under the hood of the brz
@@StealthyyyHD statements like that are stupid. If you're not fast with 80HP then 800HP wont help you. And im pretty sure it would because my 86 is scrapu now.
Top co-driver. Marty demonstrating how to be a great human 🤘
had the pleasure of meeting you lads, i was in the nitro blue falcon gt next to you guys. you two are great people and love the videos. 🤙🏼🤙🏼
"look at you go" "no look at us Marty we are a team" true bromance ❤️
Can't wait to see that LS Swapped BRZ.
Love MCM by the way enjoy all the content.
Looks like a fun event! Curious to see what you guys do with this car.
The dude tripping over at 9:40 hahaha
Cool story if u care, there's a CZcams video out there comparing Johnny Herbert to Micheal Schumacher from 1994, johnny would late brake like crazy while Micheal eased the brake and took the corner way faster because the car wasn't so upset by the braking, good for 2 seconds a lap. Anyway, I'm sure a H6 turbo motor would kick ass in that BR86😜
9:39 Look behind Moog 😂
Love what you do keep up the good work and you guys rock so stay awesome just the Way you are
Sweet event! Wish we had events like that in Denver Colorado!
You ain't lying. We need another track in the Denver area
Denver doesn't have events like this? I lived there 20 years ago they did. Rocky mountain speedway was a sponsor.
@@dannyrocket77 there's a few here and there but nothing big that I'm aware of.
Dude, wishing aint gonna make it happen.
Yeah I do the pikes peak time attack events but nothing cool like a copilot rally-ish style runs
A Hartley NZ Superstock spec 1UZ would be cooler than an LS
Love the Santa Cruz shirt reppin my home town! Much love for the channel!
Rip that guys shin at the end🤣
Favorite CZcams channel hands down. Much love mates all the way from Texas. Y'all should make a "my Nissan reaks of bong water" shirt lol.
I think a Honda k swap would suit the original intent of the car very well while giving it a much needed upgrade in sound, response, drama. You could probably run the original trans too which absolutely wouldn't be possible with many of the other suggestions here. Good chance to collab with Scotty from haltech (loves ks) and possibly turbo yoda (who also engineered a rly interesting w2a turbo kit for 86s which never got enough love). Oh and a k plus a turbo equals an absolute rocket.... Although the trans would also blow up haha
😂🤣😂 Great footage from the Rally Sprint guys, it was good to see you there !!!
I only noticed by the end but fuck I was smiling the whole time watching this, man idk why it's so much fun but y'all are awesome in front of the camera, love it!
Moog: how do you make a BRZ fast?
2 random guys: LS swap it.
All of Australia has spoken, the car needs an LS
and a blower :D 10-71 at least
Would love to see a K-Swapped BRZ 🔥
@5:38 I’m actually surprised Marty didn’t see that Mira. I think he would’ve bought it in honor of Mighty Mods’ 14th Birthday because it looks like MCM nugget #1.
Im reckon they still own it, looks like the same one. Wasn't it Moog's "sisters" car wheels, tint, stereo.
2:20 this soundtrack... Wow!
I am so very on and off with this channel but these types of "Unknown" cars are my favorite to watch. By "unknown" is will this work the way we want and can we somehow "daily" this. The AWD Mira swap and this car are some of my favorites. You have enough good dailys i feel that you gentlemen should do more cars like this that are "unknown"
That's the thing about variety. You don't have to love it all!
I think a K-swapped BRZ would be pretty good.
I love this cars story. Can't wait for my MCM Book to get here!
I will say I've recently done a heap of driver training and what Moog said is right It's no longer brake brake brake then on the power round the corner. It's no longer the way. Now it's slamm the brakes on around the start of the bend and accelerate through the apex.....it surprised me the first time my instructor showed me....it's very violent compared to smooth is fast like the old way of washing off speed. After the days I spent with my instructor and on the track I literally had a bruise across my stomach from the belt smashing me in the guts every corner.
In saying that I bought down my lap times over the day by something like 8 secs. It really works but isn't super fun without harnesses.
BEAMS engine swap time
Do a k24 swap!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is interesting about late braking, i have an E55 AMG estate and it has been mentioned more than once that I can cover ground surprisingly quickly in it, It's pretty bad round the bends so I generally just use as much of the power as I can and then lean on the brakes really hard as late as possible to get round, scares passengers but its always awesome fun getting back on the power so i never bothered wondering if it was the right way to drive it, just did it for the giggles.
As long as you don’t over-brake and lose too much speed it’s the quickest way to drive. Formula 1 is probably the clearest example of how much quicker it is. I’d recommend looking at some of Daniel ricciardo’s best manoeuvres as his talent is late breaking.
I was distracted by the green Commodore after the petal dance conversation. I own a 2016 Chevrolet version in the states. Great video mates.
On the longest timeline, every vehicle gets the LS swap treatment.
Next car should be a 1990 trd laser but modded properly trd style
My buddy in highschool ( yeah a 90s kid here) had an Eagle Talon but he really wanted the TRD even though they are the same ( like the BRZ and 86). I love to see the MCM boys tackle one of those. Good 💡💡💡😊
honestly i love the story, The White Turd is dope
I'm doing the same thing with my Suby. I put it into the wall and insurance totalled it. I bought it back as salvage and will put it back on the road, but the state requires receipts to prove that parts were bought and not stolen. There is an inspection as well, but if everything looks right, I think it's less about safety and more about the chop shops.
You guys have to Super Charge this bad boy, might not be the same as turbo, but it will still be fun and be different then the blue BRZ.
it needed more zip ties, 'sponsor' stickers and duct tape to fit in
the black wheels with the white looks so good, definatly getting some.
The filming was great this time!!
Buy all parts needed to fix the original damage. Use those for the inspection. Get your car registered
And then LS swap it 😂
2jz swap it! then pit it against the fairlady =D
this video had such a warm feeling to it
Love the beats, Moog
I love that while Moog still tries to dress like a trendy yoof, Marty has fully embraced Dad chic.
A beams would be a pretty cool swap into one of these Imo.
Would give it some pure Toyota revvy ITB goodness
Great video 👍
Great test
I would absolutely love to see you guys get a 8th gen Galant or Legnum, a legnum would be a great opponent for supergramps, and around a track like this the AYC would be insane!
Edit: Let's get a comment chain of Galant/Legnum owners, there's not that many of us out there
I agree but It will have to imported from Japan and right now importing cars into australia has a small hiccup. We have hit/or went over our yearly quota for imports.
@@KuroRyuu86 It definitely won't need to be imported, I bought a Legnum and a Galant here haha, just gotta find them. Most people selling them only really share them in the dedicated Galant Facebook groups though, and there's not alot going around, I believe I have 1 of 2 Legnums in the NT, but there's alot for sale around QLD, NSW, and SA mostly
Crazy idea, swap in the 2.4 engine from the new BRZ
that would be amazing
And where would they find that? The new BRZ is not even in delivery state yet! And a brand new engine will be too expensive to still be slow, if they want to swap it, a Honda K20/24 with a Turbo is a better option 😂
@@joealex65 it's available in other Subaru's
@@joealex65 FA24 from an Ascent could be possible. Pretty uncharted waters, but would likely bolt right up to the trans and motor mounts and work with existing power steering and A/C.
@@joealex65 you can find them in the ascent or legacy xt. It seems like the FA24 is already leagues ahead of the FA20 in terms of internal strength due to the fact that the connecting rods are 2x as strong along with improved cylinder walls amongst other things. Donut Media did a really good video on it. A tuner has already made 500 horsepower with the stock block so it's looking promising to say the least.
its almost like you made this specially for me to watch while eating dinner 🍿haha, watching in NZ
Are you going to name the brz ?. I was thinking when I watched the last vid and you said "is this car a 10k brz or a 30k brz ? The answer is it's *both* depending on...."
You should call it "Schrödinger" or "the Dinger". 🙂
Keep up the great content as always!
why would u LS swap when u havent done a 2j yet
or a barra
@@StealthyyyHD they did the barra cresta
@@skitzy2726 im must have the missed that one 😫
13b swap, get the rotary confusion happening lol
Haven't seen many on the road (USA). But I really like the look, and power it has. I think this is the replacement for the Camery
That Ultima hnngggg
I can't hear"look at us" and not instantly think of Paul Rudd on Hot Ones 🤣🤣
When these cars came out everyone dissed on them. Now everyone has realized how cool they are. So cool 😎 you guys got another. Please please don't do a swap, keep it a little pure?
they look good, but theyre slow, a turbo from factory would of been great, or even a 6 cylinder na would of been better then the 4 banger, more linear power band, my s15 that is pretty much stock can blow a brz out of the water in terms of speed
@@Jetsetxz Especially since they advertise this as a "sports" car...it should of never been under 225 hp. I always like the styling of the BRZ even though it was under powered.
There's one Subaru engine that you boys haven't fiddled with yet...
EG33 swap + turbo + Haltech.
Would love to see that combo plopped into a BRZ... Do it!
When parked up for your second ran i drove in front of you guys in the green commo!
Marty, i love your idea ! I was saying the same thing behind my screen, the LS i too heavy !
I would love to see a K Swap, with big cams and ITB’s on this thing 😍
Ls swap only adds like 20kg/45lb
That's pretty acceptable weight gain in my book.
Maybe try an EV conversion?
NOOOOOOOOO.
LS SWAP IT!
Got the signed book today, very, very cool.
Epic music at the 2 ish min mark. Very nice
K swap. Please, you dont even have to modify any internals if you wanna go for a 400 - 500 horsepower turbo setup. And na they can make from 230 to 270 horsepower to the wheels with full bolt ons.
