The new toyota GR86 is my favorite new car I've driven all year. I adore the handling, powerband, and just simple fun factor of the platform. I hadn't driven the 2022 Subaru BRZ yet either, and this was the perfect opportunity. Modified with coil overs, exhaust, a gorgeous wrap, trd wing, and much more - this was enough of a difference to justify driving BRZ vs Toyota GR86. So is this platform great for mods and is it as fun as I remember last year? Let's talk about it.

Thanks for having me out and teaching me how to slide it haha! Great review as always ⚡️
man buys car but cant drive it
Great car, now you can learn how to really drift, at Jacksonville Florida correct?
Bro seeing you here is hilarious your channel is gonna blow with the hustle you putting in😂
Got yourself a sub! Awesome car bro
Ask him if he could add you channel to his video description
For those who want more power from the 86 twins (both gens) I honestly think supercharging is the way to go. Turbos are fun and I prefer them but this car is meant to feel linear, its not as fun to have to buildup boost
I agree my friend from down the street had to lower the boost on his to 5-7 psi on his turbo 16 BRZ, Powerband to explosive he says. Great for drag racing on prep surface but horrible for street driving His biggest regrets was not installing a supercharger.
The k swap is the way to go. It feels so good.
@@TripSkyWalker Not with this new motor. That would be a complete waste of money. This makes similar power and torque to the K24.
@@jjchockey Your right. I ment for the 1st gen i should of been more Specific.
forced induction is overrated.
We really like the wheels on this car 😉
Awesome video, we're super stoked on the new BRZ as well!
Love your designs!
@@estimateddeatharrival Thank you!!!
@@anoviawheels277 when I'm old enough I'm going straight for the ones on this build
The wheels remind me of the integra dc2 blades. Very awesome!
What wheels are those
Nice to see some Anovias in the wild! 🤘🏾 great review. -Edgar
Hell yeah, noticed them too, hoped you would be here
There’s some already getting ridiculously fast times at my local tracks with minimal mods. They’re truly amazing
1st car was a wrx. Second was a type r. This is his third car. How the hell can someone have three amazing cars as their first three cars?
Rich parents
His real estate photography business 🤡
I had a few fun cars when I was young... But they were all junk by the time I owned them. Haha
They retain pretty good resale value for when they are traded in
No shame in it and don't mean to judge, but he probably got help from his parents for the WRX. If he was able to get it on his own with his "business" that's awesome as well! Also all of these cars have great resale value and don't depreciate much. Assuming he got a great interest rate on the first car then he probably didn't pay much on interest and depreciation. Plus if he sold his Type R during these times in the pandemic where everything is marked up he easily got more than MSRP on the trade-in.
I gotta be honest. Not really loving the recent reviews with the owner tagging along. Not much is said about the car other than, "It's good", "I like it". I'd like to hear some details about the specs, quirks about the interior, stuff like that.
Not hating, just wanna hear more about these cars. Especially with the Corolla hatch review. I can't remember a thing about that car from the review, and we'd been waiting a while for that one.
Yeah if he comes to Texas, I'll let him drive mine fr fr for a real review
I'm just gonna put it out here now, the new GR86 is the greatest automotive bargain of the decade.
I would know, i own one!
Does it come with factory lsd?
@@trybetternexttime3347 hell yea it does
I agree but you may be a little biased😅
Lol, bargain
@@fastec5 a good one too. Not a crappy viscous type LSD like all modern Nissan Z cars up until the new ones
I’ve got a 300ish whp turbo’d 2014. I really miss how electric the car felt when it was N/A. Once prices come back to Earth, I will gladly trade up for the 2.4 once Ecutek is available on these things headers and a flex fuel kit will be more than adequate power wise along with the instant transient response that only a naturally aspirated vehicle can provide.
Wdym by electric
@@TheTurntaker linear
@@TheTurntaker I mean the way the motor feels in response to the input of your right foot. You have to drive them robotically to keep it above the boost threshold.
Rev a turbo car up to 5k rpm and let go. Wait half a second and then blip the throttle. I don’t care if you have a triple ball bearing gen two gtx whatever the fuck…it’s going to feel like a wet noodle compared to a naturally aspirated car in the same conditions
@@larrylampshade1734 I am gonna turbo mine soon, worth it? Or get the new GR86 or GR yaris
I completely agree with you, I owned a 2015 for 2 years and for the last year it was running 12 Psi daily. While I’m not going to tell you it’s not immensely amazing to drive, adding even a small turbo alters the entire character of the car in terms of power delivery which in turn changes the way you throttle in and out of corners as well as no longer having that feeling of driving a slow car fast if that makes sense. I ended up selling it and bought an 01 2dr 2.5RS with 67k on it and swapped in an EJ25 with plenty of goodies and have had that since. Completely different animal and while it’s been my weird dream car since I was a teenage after seeing a good friend of mine do the same swap only with an EJ20 in 2003, I still miss the BRZ.
This new body was a brilliant move. I've never been into this platform until now! what a great car to learn on & look good while doing it!
And way to expensive
Hell nah! It looks like a frog now 🐸🤦♂️😆
Learn on? Wtf.
BRZ is a monster on the track
The BRZ/86 has clearly matured into quite the sportscar!
I too am interested, by my local dealer said there's already 10 people in line before me!!!
Gotta love Artisa's wheels. SUPA LIGHT
Yessssss! SUPA DUPA LIGHT
I 100% agree, I was just sitting in the BRZ today at a car show and it was incredible! This is my fav car rn, I hope to own it someday.
This car is the definition of "before Affirm loans" and "after Affirm loans" lol. It's a good looking car!
Lmfaoooo I'ma make sure not to f mine up with affirm parts 😭💀😂😂😂,
@@IdeaToCarWithCesar …affirm is a loaning company lmao. They don’t sell parts 😂
@@s7robe297 I know that's the joke 🤣
I like this style of review..I wish more ppl were comfortable around the camera..it be interesting to hear ppls story and way of thinking.
Nice ride. I love the wrap. Good luck with the new career and good for you for chasing your dream
Awesome Artisa/Annovia wheels dude. Tht wrap us sick af too. Glad you got a car you really enjoy, have fun out there!
Fun fact the 1st gen actually had design inputs for Keiichi Tsuchiya behind the scenes. Toyota did not let Subaru know that he was involved. That is dope that he was involved which makes it even more of an icon for his fans. Im glad i have a 1st gen. The 2nd gen is amazing
The car looks sick. And I love the color too.
Great job dude!
Damn that’s a nice car! I like what you did with the brz I can’t wait too see how more of these look once there modified also still excited for the Nissan Z coming out as well
Sweet clean build man. That guy should be proud and that’s awesome he drove so far for this!
Thank you for the AWESOME videos you make. You have opened up my eyes and mind to cars I never would have thought about. I love your videos are short and to the point. I am a Subaru fan boy! But there so many cars to consider for power and speed. Subaru for winter fun in Ohio.
This thing really looks awesome, especially in that color and on those wheels, something else for sure!
Most modern cars are just not doing it for me, but this is actually really nice, great job! 👌
I use to have a 3SGTE swapped 1990 Celica with 250 whp. It was cool and everything but it felt boring. I sold it and went back to a stock 1985 Celica. Even though it had just barely over 100 hp that thing was so much more fun to drive. Just going back to rear wheel drive was so much more satisfying. It was a whole lot slower but the entire driving experience was just better.
Best of luck with your new venture into YT B Levan!
Super clean! Love these little monsters definitely a great street car
The new 2022 BRZ reminds me of a 2017+ Aston Martin Vantage the back end. Pretty sexy car. Love the look man keep it up!🔥 💯
Jacksonville, Florida?! Duuuuuvaaaaaal!
All right, now I’m going to be looking for this car when I drive around town, haha.
It looks great!
GOSH DARN IT LOOKS SO GOOD. Love the wheels too ;)
Wow David you’ve got some nice drifting skills
Managed to find his car at a show in Jax around 2 months ago before the wrap, beautiful car beautiful wheels
“OMG that’s crazy..I wanna do that”
😂🤣🤣 Hilarious!!
0:36 That's one happy BRZ...
Yoo, I live in Jax too, just ordered my GR86 the other day. Excited to get it in.
Absolutely love the updated rear end
Those Artisa wheels are 🔥
Thank you!!!
WHAT IM FROM JAX FL TOO!!!! CRAZY, when you said he's from here in Duvalllll i was NOT expecting that. I'm definitely going to follow him now! And yes jax is completely flat land. lol
Honda Odysseys are very surprising for their size! But it will always feel weird having one pull on you! Lol!
Amazing wrap color.
I like this guy, you to give credit! Curious what he does next to the car
Found Brandon thru wanting a GR86/BRZ! Nice to see him on the TDIB channel!
I have a brz too! Need video ideas tho 😅
For a long time I've always more or less really not liked newer cars because of their excessive "it's supposed to be a commuter and not a fun car" feel and because of the overly excessive technology
I'm just so glad that Subaru and Toyota kept the GR86/BRZ super simple and fun relative to other cars currently on the market, and it's honestly the only newer car that I'd love to own later when they'll get older (I got my first car in November, and due to Canadian winters a RWD car isn't a really great idea for our winters)
It's a proper new old school car.. Even the last STI's had an old school feel about them compared to most other modern cars (i.e. very 'analog', they still even had hydraulic steering etc).
The BRZ / GR86 Gen 2 keeps that vibe going, and really reminds me of older cars, like my old Silvia (small RWD coupe). Also reminds me of my dad's old NA Hatch Impreza, the engine sounds exactly the same, like a mini tractor. It's basically those two cars combined haha. It definitely has character and is fun to drive.
B Levan is killing it - SEMA here you come!
Japanese are killing it like the 90’s again, it’s wonderful.
Personally, I'm glad it's not a turbo. Everything is turbocharged now, minivans, trucks, most sports cars. They just aren't as special in production cars as they used to be where if your car had a turbo, it was the real deal. It's refreshing to see a sports car centered around driving feel and experience rather than boring numbers.
The older I get the more I am turned off by turbochargers. That slushy, rubber bandy feeling throttle feel. The transient response just isn’t there.
These cars are goood!!! I can’t wait to get one
They are hugely popular Here in pensacola FL. My neighbor a few housed down is in a BRZ club Hes got a turbo kit on his 2016 running low boost 5-7psi. 244 whp with suspension ang goofy oversized wide tires. I own a 12 mustang 3.7 with a stall with a little over 300whp tuned fbo (12.7 @108mph 1/4 average). Little to say we have raced dozens of times, on a redlight to redlight I pull a length to 60 he pulls it back to 90 we are side by side at 100 before i slowly pull away. Im not Knocking the BRZ , Im just stating that with a mild turbo kit, suspension, wheels n tires the BRZ is pretty darn fast with 244whp. Mid to high 12s. So i would imagine with the new engine the potential is much much higher. The newer ones are way faster then the older engine on a N/A race. I would expect a mild supercharger kit to easily hit 285-300 whp and even more on a turbo setup
damn didnt even linked up B Levans CZcams channel in the description :D
B Levin… Dude is B Levin in his dreams and succeeding
I really liked the video and it's cool how you involved the owner but I personally couldn't be content with 200hp. I do agree with the point you made that it's the perfect car for a beginner with rwd because it's not enough power to get out of control too easy.
It's officially 220hp but most dyno closer to 250hp with about 215 at the wheels
4:23 "dayum" lol he wasn't expecting TDIB (forgot his name sorry) to actually rip it
David
Lol and he was nice enough to drift it for him
My dream car for sure, and the best part, it's not even that expensive so I will own one eventually.
I love it that’s probably going to be a car that goes up in value
As an FRS owner the affordable fast car to get is the new Z. I'm happy with what I have though - but I only want to have a little fun without getting any speeding tickets. My 120mph days have passed. I just like drifting the occasional 90 corner, the highway ramps and interchanges.
I can’t wait to get mine next year, I’m dedicated to make it happen🤞🏼
David come to Texas and drive mine on the track, I'll get us a track day
This video really has amplified my want to drive my Volvo S60 tomorrow.
It is such a fun and wonderful car, although she can be such b**** sometimes.
Needs a new rear left door lock, the fog lights doesn’t work (need to fault trace that), the rear headrest button doesn’t work, the phone is disconnected, the RTI audio doesn’t work, the little parking pass holder rattles (fixed it by sticking peace of paper in it) and the winter tires go flat if i leave it alone for some weather cycles.
God, it looks exponentially better compared to the the previous gen too. And it's a damn sight more comfortable too.
The car is nice but I don’t know about that..
OMG the drone!
those anovia wheels look stunning!!
Really? The offset is off imo
Thank you! We agree haha...the Carrier is such a good fit for this car.
@@anoviawheels277 offset is off because it rubs way to much on the rear and makes the car untrackable with the amount of camber you have to run. If only it came in better offsets 😭
@@IdeaToCarWithCesar The Carrier was actually curated with the perfect fitment for these cars with the 18x9.5 +38. It all comes down to tire size. However we did make an 18x8.5 option for those who wanted something less aggressive.
@@anoviawheels277 y'all clearly used old specs for previous generation which has different wheel wells. The track with has to be sucked in 5mm to run your wheels at that offset with a track alignment. Y'all made bad calculations like Evan and TJ using that offset. It doesn't work with track tires and alignment unfortunately and that's a fact. Maybe y'all where going for looks but I don't see that happening either cause if you think about it everyone is having to cut the rear lip and raise the cars to barely clear them and that's with a stretch. Miscalculations where made on y'all's part thinking it was the same as the old generation. No hate but it sucks y'all don't have a 9.5 in a slightly less "aggressive" offset
Man those rims are perfect for the BRZ's sleek futuristic look.
Jeezzzzzz I’m never this early!! Should be going to sleep like but il wait 😂
Ayo i wanna shout out the anovia carrier wheels. Love the brand and they’re based like 10 mins from where I live
Ayy I’m from Jax too! Gonna have to give homie a sub
I do like the directional wheels 👍
Hopefully this new engine stands the test of time. I've been reading many nightmare stories recently of people with zenki models completely failing on them.
Does this BRZ have a Zenki engine ?
i own a 2022 brz and i absolutely love it so much. only complaint is the massive understeer aspect of the subaru version
Does it have any rev hang?
@@isaaclouis4074 sorry for the late, but none that i’ve noticed. it’s been used on the track and touge, as well as my daily driver. none that i’ve noticed!
@@kuriztouge6857 ok that’s good to know, I have a Honda prelude and am thinking about getting into rwd
what part of the BRZ affects the steering? GR86 aren't available here so I'll have to get a BRZ and I was thinking of eventually modding it to match the GR86.
@@ClioDank i think subaru has aluminum parts, while toyota has steel
Lol you couldnt tag the guy? Lol Class act
The power fogures from the manufacturer are underrated, most dynos are showing crank horsepower and torque are quoted conservatively. Bolt ons and a tune (Once available) will satisfy my need for more power without having to boost it.
Beautiful car! Would be perfect with a S/C
I’m from Jacksonville Florida!
This is dope.
I completely agree with the car being the best choice for learning rwd. Too bad I decided to go with a 20 year old mustang.
Still worth it though. 🤘
With the M3, WRX, Supra, and GTI being so mixed in opinion, its really nice to have a car where everyone is like “car good, me like”.
At 13:55 you mentioned that there is rubbing. Do you know if it was on the outside where the tire meets the fender or on the inside of the wheelwell? Thank you!
Woul like to see the new elantra n fulll mod
I just bought me a new gti. I love it so far
Will you review the 2022 Miata with its KPC system?
The styling wull have to grow on me. I remember in 2014 when the mustang changed body styles took a while to get used to it. Bought one in 2017. Love that its comes with a stick. You guys more excited for this or the 400z
When the aftermarket header and tune combo comes out, this should be even that much more fun to row through the gears.
You'll still say the same thing even if this car had 400hp 🙄
@@smilepermile8165 you can never have enough. My Mk7 GTI community says the same thing. But this new GR86/BRZ is definitely a winner even without mods. My preference is to tune the car though.
@@ravenstylea2 Wrong. Whats the point of having 1000hp when you can't go wide open throttle on public roads with low speedlimits? Do you seriously think speed limits increase on a regular basis? How is it fun to press 10% of the gas pedal when you have an overpowered car on a road with speedlimits? You'll be using the brake pedal longer than the gas pedal - how is that fun? More power + torque means you'll go through tyres and fuel faster, you'll be breaking driveshafts, clutches and diffs, so you'll be stopping more than driving. The whole point of the GR86 is that it is a fun car at an AFFORDABLE price.
@@ravenstylea2 More power requires more cooling, more pipes, beefier transmission and diff, making the car more heavier and expensive. You clearly don't understand the core principles of the 86/BRZ of being a lightweight, nimble and reasonably priced car do you? MK7 Golf are only 'fun' because of their straight line performance. They're front biased weight distribution means they'll never be as engaging as the 86/BRZ if they had the same engine + torque output.
@@smilepermile8165 it's never "right" or "wrong" to have a personal preference as to what You want to do with Your car. If I want to dive into a bigger turbo for my car, than i will need to deal with all the expense and headaches that go with it. This is common knowledge. When I attend car shows, I respect everyone's build, because it's not up to me what they should do with their car. Don't play yourself.
Looks like your time with us is starting to show! Time to bang doors with us again! haha
An advertisement that actually I’m wanting to look into for once!
This car is definitely car of the year material.
The blank canvas is ready to be brought to life! Enjoy the ride along the way grasshopper! Look around, absorb the atmosphere all around you.
(Here's me thinking that light blue was a stock color bein like, OMGawdesss gimmedat! :) ) It's a wrap. Aww. :) ) (Nice, though. Really nice, whoever did that.)
Wanna know something I find ironic I just thought about people talk and the gt86 brs frs for being slow and underpowered but the ae86 had 128hp and no one seems to care
People over romanticize the ae86 because of Initial D
@@nhilist5774 yeah that’s probably why
The AE86 weighed 2000 lbs and was able to beat a stock minivan from that era off the line. A modern Camry or rav4 or sienna will still beat the GR86 from a stoplight.
@@ssaxmanful Who's so insecure as to street race a minivan? Street racing is for lames period.
@@ssaxmanful the AE86 was hated when it came out first,it was just considered as another corolla.it was only when DK and more so initial D started using the AE86 that it became popular and just never ended
Between one of these and the new gr Corolla that’s what I’m hunting for in the next 2 years
I loved in Florida and driving was booooorrrrrrriiiiinnnnggggg. Most fun I ever had was an empty mco at 2am. Lol
Then I moved back to the mountains and bought an nb2 miata.
Goes out of his way to do the CTSV front brake swap, with brakes, adapters, etc. When literally ANY 04-21 STi front brakes are a direct OEM bolt on.
I have a mint condition 1991 Civic in that same colour...but mine is factory. haha
I know people are mixed and a lot of people hate how the new gr86 and brz look. But i think it looks fantastic, and like it a lot better than the old one
these are great cars clearly but for me idk it looks awkward and i can’t get used to it, hopefully it grows on me. sick car though
@B Levan.. I’m Branden Lee too 😂 B LEE GANG
I see you shouting me out 😂 side note of all my cars you choose the miata 😂😂😂😂😂
It's just too bad they're difficult to get your hands on right now. Been trying for months :(
Talks about how good and nimble the car feels then wants to put air suspension ..🤦♂️
I know! Like wtf..🤦♂️
Such is the demographic of these cars. Lightweight, great handling and cheap. So they go and ruin the handling, add extra weight and spend the cars worth of money on mods that add nothing other than style points. Each to their own by all means, but to me, the majority of owners of these cars modify them in a way that completely goes against their designed purpose.
We all have our past mods we’d never do again. It’s just a part of growing up. I had a couple stanced cars when I was younger, and it got old quick. It’s much more fun to have a giant killer than a car that destroys itself and drives horribly at any speed. I learned by riding in cars that were modified for performance instead of scene points and realized sticky tires and some actual suspension travel is so much more enjoyable to drive, and doesn’t make the car useless for driving to work.
I want that type r
I hate my gt86 so much..
I meant to say l like my gt86 so much I broke the motor by 30k.
I can't put that engine back in so what do I do??
30047mile to 3cyl running rumble.
Anyone know about this problem 🤔
Unless I'm mistaken, isn't the engine in this car a non-turbo version of the engine in the new WRX? If so then this engine should take better to being turbocharged than the old one.
I have a Audi S3 and I really want a BRZ.
you should link the dude's youtube channel in your description
