Has anyone dealt with any good Canadian websites/shops for coilovers/lowering springs? I am torn on which direction I want to go. I was originally planning to go with the Eibach Sportlines but now I am considering a set of coilovers. I'm not sure where to purchase though, i'd rather purchase from someone in Canada or even in the province than order from across the border.

@empower-auto here in the forums is from S'toon. I'm sure he'll be able to help you out.

There's also Speedtech for aftermarket parts if you wanna deal local

I got a good deal on price and shipping from CounterSpace Garage but I am waiting to see if I get butt hurt at the boarder. I was kind of a test subject for them in regards to shipping to Canada.

So everyone, it is ALMOST summer. That mean's it is almost time to cruise around slowly with the window down as the sun is setting, listening to your favorite tunes.

FRS is about to get moar low! Eibach springs arrived and are getting installed next week! I do not think I need real before and after pictures...but I will try my best to take actual shots that show the car parked in the same spot, camera equal distance and angle, before and after.

I should wax it before this, make it sexy for y'all.

Also, JPx...if you ever get new side fender vents, I will buy your stock BRZ ones off you. I prefer the little scoop look (Aston like)

For sure! I really like the Prova ones, but man alive $400?? I can buy full CF vents for that kinda money.

I love those Provia ones too but :o dat cost. You ended up going back to the stock airbox too eh? Did you take your snorkel out of your car with your other two intake installs? I did, and now I want to take out my airaid and go back to stock..wonder if I need to put the snorkel back on...don't want to pull off the front bumper again. So much work! haha

I never removed snorkel with the Airaid and never installed the Takeda. If I would have installed the Takeda, definitely would have removed the snorkel for sure, but glad I didn't in the end.

Yeah running stock airbox with Works dropin filter, nothing to report so far as my car is still parked. If your going back to stock, I would definitely consider putting the snorkel back in as it was proven already that stock setup without snorkel equals power loss.
