Just wanted to post up a picture of my car with my new Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L II lens.

I also wanted to post a picture of the shoddy, leaky, broken LED side marker lights I purchased from a vendor's group buy a few months ago. These have not been worth the money.

infinite012 · 07-23-2013, 03:23 PM

Since my last update I have uninstalled the LED sidemarkers and purchased another set of OEM style smoked sidemarkers and put new wheels and tires on. Wheels are Avarus AV8 18x8 +48 (the offset is really high, so I'm thinking ~5mm spacers are in my future) with Continental Extreme DW 245/35/18 tires.

I got to reuse my Project Kics R40 lug nuts that I kept from my STI. I say "reuse" but I really mean that I didn't have a thin walled 19mm socket to install the chrome lug nuts that Tire Rack provided with the wheels.

Beautiful car, thinking about switching out my antenna too! Love the rims (having a difficult time deciding which ones i should go with)

Thanks. I've been deciding on the wheels since March

Ffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Tail light condensation.

infinite012 · 09-03-2013, 12:26 PM

Went to the Baltimore Grand Prix on Saturday with my cousin and best friend.

Started the day off with a (kind of) clean BRZ in Northern VA:

Then we arrived in Baltimore, MD and found parking in a garage. That's my best friend's CL65 AMG and my (purplewtf?) BRZ:

Did some walking around and saw stuff:

Crash:

Fun day. I have a couple more pictures that I didn't get around to shoving through Photoshop.

infinite012 · 10-08-2013, 09:00 AM

Had both my tail lights replaced last Wednesday by the dealership due to condensation. So far so good.

My service advisor just called me to let me know he got a new fuel pump in today and wants it installed on my car asap. We'll see what happens in a couple days after I drop off/get my car back.

Little update: put the OEM suspension and side markers back on. Then I took the OEM side markers back off. Now they're painted with a color that nearly matches DGM (I found a couple extra spray cans left over from my old STI fender badge painting frenzy).

I didn't get it all right, though. Some of the paint didn't stick, but this area won't be seen:

why did you swap back to OEM springs?

I was going to sell BRZ and get something like a Forester XT, but wife keeps insisting I just keep the BRZ.

She's still madbro at me for getting rid of the STI.

my friend has an amazing Forester, like an 08, customized so nicely, tuned and all. Great vehicle.

Looks like your wife likes to have some excitement while driving, nothing wrong with that!

Washed, polished, sealed. Car is on stock springs, wheels, and tires. That will change back to RCE yellows and 18s when it's warmer out. I have a new shift knob to install next year as well.
