Weederr's Series.Yellowbird STI Sport
Hello everyone, and welcome! This is my 2017 Subaru BRZ Series.Yellow. Now, as some may know, I previously had a 2013 Scion FRS which was heavily modified. To put it simple, I was in too big of a damn hurry. This time around I think I'll be going a bit slower on my build....
3 years in, I've decided to pursue the STI Sport design found in Japan!

Hello Fellow Series yellow owner!
Car looks great. Loving the STI lips and Clear sidemarker. This just confirms I need to do these. Are you considering doing a different 3rd brake light? What are the part numbers on the OEM oil cooler? I just talked with Jackson racing they are coming out with a dual radiator/oil cooler that will be plug n play for MY17. |

I'm not going to do a 3rd break light as I don't see any reason to. As for the OEM oil cooler, all of the parts are listed in this link: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=50427 The Jackson Racing radiator/ oil cooler does look like an interesting item tbh. I just figured I'd go with the OEM look since I don't track my car, yet. And if I do, I'll just put a proper oil cooler on. |
I don't recommend an aftermarket thermostat if you have no practical reason to. The Forrester oil temp regulator will be enough.

Ya I love the STI kit. I am going to go with STI front lip and a HPT sideskirt. I want to see a series yellow with a Valenti 3rd brake light. I think it will look awesome. Especially if you do the V mod so that the V lights up with running lights. |

Also yeah I was thinking the same so it's still up in the air. |

Congratz! Take it slow this time, still going to cosworth in the future? :)
I'm sure you love the updated twin a lot compare to more bare bone 2013 model. :) |

As for the Cosworth I cannot say for certain. I want to, but honestly, if I were to, I'd rather just wait a while longer and do forged internals too. |
Looks great! Would love to see some more pics of the drop that the Pro kit gives you.

Congrats on your new car! Looks very nice. Take it slower and think twice before doing any changes. It took me almost 3 years to change the suspension and I don't regret it.
