I really liked your discussion on selecting the right tuner. I live in the twin cities and I've been impressed with Devin at JM Auto in Maple Grove, MN. Just like you said, that last part of the tune where it's reliable is probably the most important and he's got it down to a science. They focused on Subie engines before the 86 platform came out so their experience with boxer engines is deep. If you ever need a re-tune, look into them.
SOo good and insightful Leigh is such an Icon been following his drifting for years since the 2007 the OG Risky Devil Blogs and T2 Films... Man it's cool that yall linked up and spreading the good news ZN6 drifting.
Yea man it was a big goal of mine to get him on. Really happy he was able to take some time to spread some knowledge. I know I will be looking back and referencing this video for years to come as I progress in drifting.
I cried when he did this but the new owner is treating the thing very well. his driving is amazing in the new chassis and cant wait to see what his driving turns in the future.
Honestly coming from watching drifting for years and drifting on a simulator and all these high hp builds I always looked at low hp drifting as nice for learning but "everybody wants to eventually end up with a high hp, flamboyant, bright car" but the way you both look at it like "it's more fun because it's harder to drive and therefore more sattisfying and if you were to ever break anything it would be simple to fix and pretty much every shop could help you with parts right off the shelves" it a kind of like new spin you gave it for me. I do recognize that one does need more power with the modern heavier cars than on the older style sportscars, but a nice and light car does seem like a very fun option. Given how easy it is to make big power on the modern platforms out today it would seem like kind of a no brainer to go MHD and downpipe or something, but I think you're on to something here and I will explore this further.
I got into a car accident with my red eclipse GS-T 2g 1998 with highrise spoiler man made 300hp with 17psi for boost stock turbo was a very fun fwd car and my first every car and first ever manual, it sucks i think about it almost everyday, got hit by a drunk driver driving a stolen uhaul...but now I'm getting my claim money from the company and getting a 2017 silver grey gt86 with that nice front shark looking bumper i can't wait to get my hands on an 86 and go drifting. Man im excited 😂😂
adam lz but tj hunt picture?? surprised no ones commented on that.... It could be an on going joke but I'm somewhat new here been, been lurking for a while and finally committed
@@Nick_Ramirez I knew tj just had experience with 86/frs/brz so I was thinking he meant tj. But great content, it’s shipping my ideas for my own build 💙
Great video found it very useful and its great to see people keeping the fa20 Wanna build something similar with mine but everyone's telling me to do a swap
I am not sure there is a solid market for these kind of videos for those chassis. I target my videos for the youth and unfortunately the youth can't afford R32's anymore. Also, I know nothing about those other cars haha. I will slowly start expanding to other topics but for now its GT86! Good ideas tho man I really appreciate the reccomendations.
Im a big fan to of demo runs from back then, team orange, kazama.. I was also a big fan of kumakubo and tanaka also because off subaru. 🤙I love the Brz ! for me its like if a STI and a Schassis had baby 😁 my favorite cars, so cool that subaru made a rwd sports car good for drifting in the end 🔥
Thank you for having me Nick! Great interviewer!
TY Leigh! I can tell by the comments already, everyone really appreciates you and everything you shared with us. Forever grateful!

There legit do be a ZN6 revolution out there brothers Hail the Style King
Hell yea there is! ZN64L
This is the first time I've heard of the ATS diff, sounds really interesting. Very valuable knowledge from this guy for sure.
Same here, I am most likely going to take his advice in the future and pick one up for myself. Leigh is a smart guy.
Common in the track/circuit community
I can’t wait to see what the future holds for these chassis
Me too man. With the internet, this community has the potential to even blow past some of the older chassis in creativity and style. I am so hyped.
Surprise video goes crazy
Nick! Proud of you dude! Keep the content coming. Consistency wins the game
Thanks Adam :) Trying to make each video better than the last!
@@Nick_Ramirez you're doing it bro! We believe in you!

Just subbed. This is the best interview so far. Lots of gold nuggets being dropped.
Appreciate the kind words man. I am super happy Leigh was able to sit down with me. He taught me a lot.
I have gained so much knowledge watching this video!!! Thank you Nick for another great video and thanks Mr. Boost for the info
Love you brother
I cried when he did this but the new owner is treating the thing very well. his driving is amazing in the new chassis and cant wait to see what his driving turns in the future.
Good to hear the car is in good hands. Yea its cool super cool to have an OG here to help figure out the best way to set up this new chassis.
Thank you for this video! Just had my first drift event this advice is gonna be super helpful thank you
Congrats on your first event man I hope you had fun! Thanks for taking time out of your day to check back in here and thank me :)
Good stuff man! Nice to hear a final bout drifter talk about his BRZ.
Love this video! Probably the best one yet! Keep up the amazing content Nick
Appreciate ya as always Owen!! I am trying to make each video better than the last!
Nothing beats a new NR video on a hella rainy day!
Thank you brother!

These cars are the best. Thanks for the nice comment man, I am glad you enjoyed the video :)
amazing vid, so much knowledge 🤯🤯 Thanks Nick and Leigh!!

Watching this is giving me something special is being documented in American amateur drifting right now
I hope I can look back on these videos 20 years from now and be prod of myself for taking the time to document all this stuff.
your channels giving me hope for the future of this platform
Glad you are enjoying the videos man. I love making them!
Im with nick here. Im very curious how my welded diff will handle the track..
Yes bro would love to hear an update when you try it out :)
bro's reaction had me dying😂😭 lmfao
besides the point very useful vid.
Every video makes the ZN6 temptation grow stronger..
Same.
same. But the boxer engine is what is holding me off
@anthonyr7570 my fa20 is beat on constantly
Damn I really learned a lot from this
Glad the video could help out man thanks for watching!
Great video! Keep ‘em coming 🤙🏻
Already planning next weeks video!
I love the nerd specs talk
adam lz but tj hunt picture?? surprised no ones commented on that.... It could be an on going joke but I'm somewhat new here been, been lurking for a while and finally committed
I think I just did that to be stupid haha. Don’t really remember why tbh🤣
@@Nick_Ramirez I knew tj just had experience with 86/frs/brz so I was thinking he meant tj. But great content, it’s shipping my ideas for my own build 💙
Great video found it very useful and its great to see people keeping the fa20

Thank you for watching brother! I say push your FA20 to its limit and then think about sawpping it!
Always! Keep up the good content my dude
Think your right i might as well as its already in there 👌
Great video! Makes me want to get a diff... 🤔
Yea sounds like a great idea once you get a lil experience!
Would you ever consider making content for other chassis popular with drifting? Like RPS13, BNR32, FC3S, JZZ30? Love ur content btw

Sounds like a guy with good taste 😎 Thanks for stopping by and checking out my video man I really appreciate it!
NEW NR UPLOAD LETS GOOOOOOO
MY G! Thank you!!
I like running kenda 225s in the rear.
I always ran 215s all the way around on stock power. I want to try 225s
absolutely amazing vid !!!!!!
Appreciate ya Natali! Thanks for the support!
does anyone know what control arms he talking about @14:34
I wonder if it’s cheaper to build a BRZ in Japan compared to overseas
It is. But salaries are lower and cost to own a car is quite high.
@@Nick_Ramirez Thanks for the info, was thinking since I see so many Japanese modded BRZs on Insta
Wheels or coils first?
Coils
Coils, get some spacers, the stock wheels are fine for a while just get rid of that awful wheel gap.
I did that for a brz for a 240😂😂
m8 went to the dark side
