Dan37BRZ's '15 SUPERCHARGED WRB BRZ

[Dan37BRZ]

To celebrate my final tune revision from Delicious tuning, gave the supercharger some bling.





A little 20-110mph test pull.

I think the mods I've done to the car really compliments the "feel" of it. It hasn't lost any of its charm, it's just the limit has been raised further up a few notches. I personally think it's way more fun to drive than when I first bought it.

congrats, that is one sweet lookin' ride.

at some point in the future when money is more free flowing, the edelbrock is what i want to throw on my car as well.

The all black looks MUCH better. Way less tacky.

Totally agree. Did you paint it or is it vinyl?

It's just a vinyl overlay. I wasn't a big fan of the red accents.

New box from Japan.



Unboxing.


DAMD all leather steering wheel. Quality is excellent, leather is softer than OEM and smells great, ergonomics is spot on and the feel is much thicker overall. It just changes the whole driving feel for the better. Thumbs up to Kami Speed for getting it to me quickly. One of my favorite mods so far.


Much thicker grips compared to stock.


Transferred over all the trim, cruise stalk and airbag clips.

Thinking about getting an HKS EL header next. Also I really like the subtle look of the Stillen or 5AD rear lip spoiler, might have to get a new OEM trunk though since they won't cover the holes left behind from the limited wing.

Also want the Chargespeed lip kit and maybe other small little things like Perrrin shifter bushings/MTEC shift springs.

After that a new head unit with Android auto. I've been eyeing the Kenwood DDX917WS 200mm unit which isn't sold here in the US, it fits into the 2013-15 like factory and looks quite snazzy.

Do you have any concern vinyl will peel off the s/c? just wondering with engine temps or occasional cleaning and all that. dont have a super charger or much experience with where it gets hot but want one and like this idea. looks great!

Not sure if these are the "high temp vinyl" but they seem to be holding up just fine. No peeling or lifting of any kind. I've used vinyl decals on brake calipers before which are exposed to much worse, heat, rain brake dust ect and they never peeled off.

Took a mini road trip to Solvang, CA Wine Country with my wife. Jumped out for a quick photo op, great roads.

Car performed flawlessly supercharged, passing in 6th gear with ample torque is a treat, even returned an average of 29.2MPG.

Got everything I needed to do my removable magnetic license plate mount today.
