After the show I headed back over to the race; a co-worker has a WRX he runs whenever he can. Chatted with him. His new BRZ just came with with a ruined front end. Don't even know how that happens. Apparently they called him to tell him they'd repair it and he refused to take delivery. Another is on it's way and he'll start doing events with it in the spring.

I need to find a local place to buy a helmet, as I plan to start in the spring. Still haven't met anyone.... I'm such a programmer.

We spent a good amount of time waiting forever for our stoned waiter up at Fridays in the stadium, so we were gone from like 1-2:30, it's interesting what you say about your buddies front bumper. Mine showed up with damage on the unpainted part of the front bumper, but they just replaced the bumper. Good enough for me.

From his explanation, it was damaged pretty good. I think you posted about yours, because when he was explaining it that's what I was thinking about "Didn't a couple other guys just get replacement bumpers?".

I liked your car, info on your turbo and where you got it? How is it running? Do you autoX with it at all?

1slowbrz · 08-27-2013, 11:35 AM

It's fa20club 60 trim turbo kit, 550cc injectors, upgraded pump, and everything else he would sell me for more power just about. The car is running perfect, still patiently waiting for a green light to turn up the boost. All of the install work was done by me. Very easy other than the fact that I would have mentioned a few very important minor details that I missed doing the install which caused headaches along the way, with fuel pump install, Vacuum line routing, and whatnot.
The power comes on like getting hit by a freight train around 3k rpm. I haven't done much with it, but I think autocross would probably be a sideways mess. I'm probably going to order some better tires at work today so I can hang on a little more. 235's aren't doing it.

Nothing special, but I have a stock clutch with 10k on it and a stock air box laying around. And part of the stock exhaust lol
