What did you do to your 2nd gen BRZ today? - Page 26 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Got my Lloyd carpet trunk mat. I ordered the Velourtex in Ebony (962), which has a similar texture to the OE carpet while being more durable. Lloyd also sells a mat that fits on the rear seats when they’re folded down.

One nice bonus is that the heavier backing adds a bit of sound deadening.

This is about as low as I wanted it to go. Still clears every speed bump and my steep driveway.

The back can be lowered all the way to the tire without rubbing and the front can go another 1/2in or so. Fortune Auto 500's. Name: 20220114_181705.jpg

There are RLCAs for the 2022 already?

No. I used the SPC that I had on the 20.

What are the benefits to changing out the rear lower control arms, assuming that's what RLCA stands for?

dragoontwo · 01-15-2022, 03:59 PM

For me, adjustable camber to what I wanted. There are also ones in different metals, or different bushings. Probably a couple other reasons I left out.

We got about the same with the whiteline bolts.

Rear camber bolts? What?

Picked up a passenger today. Pretty close to the sidewall, but at least it went at an angle and I felt it right away.

Did you use the pinch welds as the jacking point? Any adapter for the floor jack?

Seam portion, the jack has a padded rubber surface, no adapter.

Got my STI shift knob. It's pricey but I had money left on my voucher so I splurged. It has a nice look and feel.

For my current car and my wife's Civic, I jack up elsewhere but use the following for my jack stands on the pinch welds.
