Nice. So far those are my favorite, but I can't decide between smoke and red. Does anyone have pictures of the smoke, out in the daylight with all lights off? I don't like the look of many that show a big white tube in them.

Smart move. I personally think the BRZ brakes are terrible. Great feedback and pedal firm feel, but terrible stopping power and bite, easily faded.

I laid the groundwork for my sub today. I'm waiting for my harnesses from SVXdc to actually hook it all up.

I mounted a circuit breaker behind the battery (but not connected to +). The amp power wire runs along the passenger sill to a fuse block in the trunk. Mounted my JL 250/1 under the trunk liner, like where the factory amp is, but on the other side (similar to what 2forme did). Trimmed the foam and now you can't tell anything is there. That amp couldn't be 1mm bigger in any direction!

Still debating on where I want to put the ground.

Which one (res / non-res) and how do you like it so far? I'm leaning towards getting a Milltek as well, but I'm having the hardest time trying to decide between resonated and non-resonated (I worry the res could be too quiet while the non-res could sound too loud and metallic like many STI exhausts). Did you have Mann install it?

Installed the JPM door speaker covers. Was a little daunting task for me as I am new to this area. IF you do not have a door panel removal tool and you are going to do this...I highly suggest you get one. Needless to say when I went to put the door back on, I needed to take a break and go buy the tool.



They came out great though! Knee Pads are tomorrow and I will be complete!

I purchased the res because I did not want it too loud. I would say very close to the sound clips on Mann's site. Mann did the install and they said the non-res was not much louder. Might suggest you call, they are very informative. And so far I really like it!
