Saw your car at English town a couple weeks ago. Looks great with the wheels. Super clean.

Car is looking so good with the wheels and suspension. The setup with V3s & some quality rubber has you outpacing alot of things! I really want to try a BRZ at an autocross event or smaller track, they look like so much fun. My last track day at Willow Springs here in Cali had about 10 BRZs doing their paces, all looked very balanced and were very quick despite the long straightaway and elevation change. They are made to go fast...

Can't wait to see what happens if you add some brakes or make that license plate a false advertisement....

brembos will be on this week.

and i've got a few things up my sleeve to make that rear plate be more visible to people but for now my suspension is sorted out, breaks will be done i just need time to get seat time until i do any power. the biggest issue is hte stock torque dip, out of corners i'm right in that god damn dip.

Hahaha!! Epic... I am excited to see the brakes, they should fill out those wheels very nicely. Interesting on the torque dip though, that can certainly be annoying if you are having to downshift more than you'd like to get going out of the corner quick. I REALLY gota drive one of these now haha!

Out of curiosity. Is this car cheaper to operate than your STi? Obviously it is, but is it dramatic>

too lazy to use my camera because the car isn't at 100% yet so for now here are small cellphone/instagram (@comrad) updates.

wing paint matched and on, front end shaved and repainted with real paint (not suabru fingerprint) big thanks to Vilar Autobody.





made a splitter and canards for the side skirts out of sheet aluminum.





all done and on the car, no that isn't the ride height it is actually at...



brembos done, time to slap them on.



fixing my toe issues...you can see the canard on the side skirt here.



me and my buddy's s2k




i'll get real photos once it all done, for now this will do.
