Your friendly guide to the Subaru Falken Tire / Turn 14 Distribution BRZ '17 in Gran Turismo Sport. Learn about its specs, acquisition, and how to master drifting with this beast!

Alright, let's talk about the Subaru Falken Tire / Turn 14 Distribution BRZ '17. This isn't just any BRZ; this is a full-on drift machine, piloted by the legendary Daijiro Yoshihara back in 2017. You'll find it in Gran Turismo Sport and Gran Turismo 7. What's the big deal? This car is basically a Subaru BRZ that's been seriously modified for drifting. Think Rocket Bunny V3 aero kit, carbon fiber parts, and a crazy engine swap. We're talking a 7.0-liter turbocharged V8 pumping out a massive 986.2 HP! It's all controlled by a Motec M800, and the transmission, drivetrain, and suspension are all tuned specifically for sliding around corners. It even has a 4-speed transmission, which is pretty wild for a modern car, but perfect for drifting. Daijiro Yoshihara, or 'Daichan' as he's known, is a big name in drifting. He won the Formula D championship in 2011 and was the first Japanese driver to do so. This BRZ was his ride in the 2017 Formula Drift series, where he finished 6th overall. Even though he didn't win the championship that year, he put on an amazing show! How do you get your hands on it? * In Gran Turismo Sport: You can grab it from Subaru's Brand Central for 400,000 Credits. It was added in Update 1.13. * In Gran Turismo 7: It's also in Subaru's Brand Central for 400,000 Credits. Plus, you can earn it by completing the 'The Sun Also Rises' mission challenge with all Bronze trophies. Customization - Engine Swaps (GT7) If you're playing GT7, you can even swap the engine! For 500,000 Credits, you can drop in the HR-414E-NSX engine (from the Honda NSX CONCEPT-GT '16). It's a racing engine that'll boost performance, but remember it might affect fuel economy. A Word of Warning: This car is built for drifting. While it's incredibly fun to slide around, it might not be your go-to for grip racing. If you're looking to improve your drifting skills, this is an absolutely fantastic car to practice with. Just be ready for that massive V8 power!
