My friendship with Dai (Daijiro Yoshihara) is one of my favorites. We both met while we were much younger and could barely communicate (language barrier)â€"and today, well, let's just say we've already exchanged a couple of texts and have liked one another's photos on Instagram (we tight, aight) by the time I finished writing this sentence. Needless to say, I've watched him grow from an unknown to an American drifting sensation, regarded today as the best of the best. A maverick in his own right, and deservedly so. He has since retired the S13 that is long synonymous with the Yoshihara name (also won the 2012 Formula D title) and is campaigning an all-new Subaru BRZ for 2014, one that has been outfitted with a turbocharged V8, nearly 1,000hp, and the fashion-forward Version 2 kit from Kei Miura's Rocket Bunny label. It is the stuff hipster tuner kids and diehard drift fans would kill for, and is the culmination of Dai's American drifting career.</p> a <br /> Photo Gallery: <a href="http://www.superstreetonline.com/features/1409_dai_yoshihara_formula_drift_subaru_brz/">1000hp Subaru BRZ - Dai Yoshihara's Evolution to LS</a><br /><br /> Photo Gallery: <a href="http://www.superstreetonline.com/features/1409_dai_yoshihara_formula_drift_subaru_brz/">1000hp Subaru BRZ - Dai Yoshihara's Evolution to LS</a><br /><br /></dt>
