"As the phenomenally successful collaboration between Subaru and Toyota the BRZ has been met with widespread critical acclaim and manic consumer demand. The classy and potent BRZ sports a new Subaru flat-four with 200 horsepower and rear-wheel drive. It is a spirited daily driver that is ready for the track out of the box."—Official description[1]
The 2013 Subaru BRZ is a rear-wheel drive sport compact by Subaru.
It appears in Forza Horizon as part of the February Jalopnik Car Pack, and as standard in all subsequent main series titles.
Synopsis[]
The name BRZ is an abbreviation for boxer engine, rear-wheel drive, and zenith. The BRZ, codenamed ZC6, was developed in cooperation with Toyota, whom also sells the car as the Toyota GT86 and Scion FR-S, with the latter having ceased production upon the discontinuation of Scion. Each model is a rear-wheel drive sports car powered by a Subaru-designed flat-four engine.
The BRZ along with its Toyota counterpart received a facelift in 2017.[2]
The BRZ is based on a light front-engine rear-wheel drive platform that weighs 2764 lb (1254 kg) and has a front weight distribution of 55%. Its engine is an aluminium block 2 litre flat-four codenamed FA20 with 197 hp (147 kW) at 7000 rpm and 151 ft·lb (205 N·m) of torque at 6400 rpm. The BRZ is available with a six-speed manual or automatic torque converter transmission.[3]
Performance[]
As an agile sports car, players can easily perform quick cornering with the car, but will experience light oversteer if pushed too hard. The two-liter naturally aspirated boxer engine lacks torque and requires high rpms to unfold its power, recommending players to stay on the powerband as long as possible. While driving similarly to the GT86, the BRZ has a very slight braking disadvantage.
Upgraded[]
The Rocket Bunny upgrade preset in the Horizon series improves the Performance Index up to S1 900 by fitting the car with a 2.6L I6 - TT engine swap and a Rocket Bunny body kit.
The Rocket Bunny BRZ features 883 hp (658 kW) and 734 ft·lb (995 N·m) of torque, which vastly make the car more powerful. The excessive wheelspin makes it useful for drifting, but poorly suited for racing.
The Horizon Edition variant features the aforementioned performance traits albeit with a higher top speed, more efficient braking, sharper handling, and slightly slower acceleration.
Variants[]
Horizon Edition[]
The Horizon Edition is an upgraded variant in Forza Horizon 3 featuring an XP boost and a base Performance Index rating of A 713. It comes with an S1 900 upgrade preset featuring a Rocket Bunny widebody kit and an upgraded 3.0L I6 - TT engine swap. The stock design is a black prismacolor paint design.
It was unlockable as a Horizon Wheelspin prize prior to the October 14, 2016 update and was rewarded from various Forzathon events, although it is still unlockable via the final Forzathon event "Into The Horizon."
Forza Edition[]
The Forza Edition is a Forza Motorsport 7 rendition of its equivalent from Forza Horizon 3 but with homologated performance, as well as a 15% credits bonus and an additional 15% credits bonus for races in Long Beach.
It can be won upon unlocking the Breakout Championship.
Fast & Furious Edition[]
- Main article: Subaru BRZ Fast & Furious Edition
The 2013 Subaru BRZ Fast & Furious Edition is a pre-tuned variant featured in Forza Motorsport 7 as part of the The Fate of the Furious Car Pack. It is a recreation of Little Nobody's car in The Fate of The Furious.
