I wonder how many customers would be able to appreciate them even if they did.

Yea I had to read that sentence 3 times to make sure. It actually says painted red.

projectXTR · 06-27-2016, 04:44 PM

Only interested in the final drive if it's compatible with my MY13

Rather than be disappointed that my '15 doesn't have a lot of these changes, I see this as a fun opportunity to see what I can swap over. Obviously it isn't easy to swap cams, but a lot of these changes might bolt right up. A lot of the cosmetic things will (things like the improved fender and trunk garnish) and hopefully so will a lot of the mechanical things. Things I would be interested in are the Brembos, the new intake from the tract down to the manifold, the fuel pump, even the diff if it was easy to swap...

I don't have a whole lot of faith in painted brake calipers, brembo or otherwise.

Mr.Impreza · 06-27-2016, 04:52 PM

The only thing I'm interested in is to see if the new manifold can be put in a 2013-2016 86/BRZ and run properly on a stage 1 OFT tune.

Hahaha

Zenki 86 = 4U-GSE Blacktop

Kouki 86 = 4U-GSE Redtop

Sound great to me

Trust me this is way better condition than peeling paint that flakes off on a Brembo caliper.

I don't think so? I think they move the fuel rail line just a bit cuz the new intake is "longer" So even if it goes right on , some stuff might get in the way ..so that you have to DIY some stuff aroud it.

Basically the traction control kick in later now.

& car is more stiff with less vibration
