It's been a while since I've updated the build thread. Life got me pretty busy so car hasn't seen much update.
I did end up picking up an OFT v2 and we are now on E85. At my level of driving, I feel like it's enough power to be competitive at autox. I'm able to consistently put down times that are about ~4-5 seconds slower than the spec miata autox warriors that are very experienced. I think with a set of RE71R's, and some driver mod I can catch up a second or two more there.









Also, my future wife and I have recently purchased a 2019 WRX to replace the Corolla. It's been super cool driving a car that is pretty much the opposite of the BRZ while sharing the same engine.

yea I got rid of it since the red/chrome didn't match the revos. I plan to eventually pick up the smoked version, but for now stock will do.
