Hi everyone.

My name is Brian and I live in Columbus.

I was in the market for a BRZ for a little while, and happened across a STEAL of a car at a Chevrolet dealer in Akron. Its name is Finn, and it's a '16 Limited in Ice Silver. Got it with 1800 miles.

I've had it three weeks, and have done the following:
-Diode Dynamics 'Always-On' DRL/Boomerang module
-Osram Xenarc CBI HID bulb swap
-Diode Dynamics HP11 LED front turn signal bulbs
-Diode Dynamics HP3 LED 5000K license plate bulbs
-Tapturn LED flasher relay (3-blink lane changes)

Plans to complete before 2018:
-Diode Dynamics LUXEON LED fog light replacement (already bought, waiting to go in)
-TOM's Racing LED tail lights (red lens)
-Second Skin sound deadener (floor/doors/roof to start)

Hello from Montreal, Canada!

Got my CWP 2017 BRZ one month ago, finally managed to get one after 5 years of dreaming about it!

Initially wanted a FR-S but couldn't find a decent priced one in my area. Also, was looking at 2014s, then 2015s before finally searching for demo 2017 cars. Wanted an 86 first but got an insane deal on a BRZ.

Hi there from Spain,

I am in the process of purchasing a 2018 BRZ...sadly, I will not have it until april. I hope the car worth the waiting. By the way, I have choosen the WR Blue Pearl. Nowadays I still enjoying a Toyota Celica gen7.

Hi guys,

I'm a long time lurker and after horror story with previous BRZ which I've ordered in january this year I've finally picked up my 17' CWP last month.

This forum really encouraged me to pull the triger on BRZ

Rederick · 12-06-2017, 08:53 PM

Hey all,

Just picked up my 2017 BRZ Limited PP today, couldn't be happier with it. For what it is worth, all of the complaining about how low on power this car is had me thinking I would be driving a slug! I was pleasantly surprised at how the car drove and told the dealer to box it up!

Looking forward to getting to know you all a bit more over here in the BRZ side and hope to contribute at some point as well.

I am a Toyota guy at heart but the BRZ was just the better value and I am glad I got it over the 86.

My never ending project:

and my new BRZ!

halujeddo · 12-09-2017, 01:58 PM

Hi, just got my 2015 BRZ

Hey everyone, I'm Md, Nice to meet you all

LatentWagen · 12-23-2017, 09:54 PM

Hey my name is Ed, been lurking for quite a while and finally got my PP '17 today. Very happy with it so far

Came from an '08 Legacy spec B with a few mods. Likely will leave the BRZ alone for a while, aside from springs and the 17x8.5 SSR Comps that were on the Legacy.

xenarc · 12-27-2017, 11:48 AM

I just came out of 2014 Corolla S. I love the 2017 BRZ. Can someone provide me with a link on a DIY fog light installation? I know the fog light bezel changed from the previous years.

Hey guys new to the forum, I am from quebec just parked my baby 2013 Brz sports tech for the winter. Looking to modding it while its not in use any no brainer suggestions?

teob · 01-04-2018, 09:09 PM

Hey guys! I joined the forum a long time ago but immediately went MIA without saying "hi". 2013 BRZ looking to get more involved in the forum (for real this time...)

Logikal Reazon · 01-04-2018, 09:21 PM

Hey guys car semi-noob here. Just bought a 2017 Toyota 86! Has about 2300 miles on it now.

Just switched out the trans and diff oil with Gear 300 and dimple magnetic plugs for the drain and fill plugs for both trans and diff.

Next thing I have on my list are 18x9.5 +35 Volk te37 SL wheels wrapped in Michelin 255/35 PSS.

Then KW V3 coilovers.

After that headers and exhaust. Looking at Ace EL merge header with 350 collector and Invidia r400 exhaust.

On to the tune, I have no idea on where to start with what tune to go with but have looked at delicious tuning.

Any opinions on any of these mods? Is there anywhere I'm going wrong?
