2013 Limited SWP bye STI -BRzlowww-



All

Morning/Afternoon/Evening,Diego here from Oklahoma city OK (not a thunder fan)

On April Wednesday 17 2013 for some odd reason i decided to swing by the Subie dealer and perhaps drive a BRZ, hour later after test drive i place my order for a SWP Limited BRZ.

Words couldn't describe how happy i was with this test drive, the car is just a "masterpiece" i had a smile on my face the whole time,went ahead and traded my STI for the BRZ. STI never really put a smile in my face for some reason, even with the mods and how sick it looked, see pics.

Had 31k miles on STI owe $21k to the bank, dealer gave me $28k for the STI. Paid $28k for the BRZ, had $7k to play around with but i decided to put it towards the BRZ to pay the same amount monthly but less insurance. Also got a free tint and 2 years oil change, not to mentioned 2.9% rate, couldn't pass the deal up.

Enuff with all this boring history, here are the pics of my ex NAsti



















My BRZ will be here tomorrow Monday 22nd.

Already order new tires and rims = 18x8 Enkei Tuning Raijin BLK with 235/35ZR-18 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2

Also order the Spyder Tail lights all smoked out


Order a set of LED white fog light bulbs/reverse bulb/license plate bulb.

I will do UEL header, with invidia q300 once i break in the car nicely a the not planing on putting a turbo untill around 20k miles.

Most likely i will get a personalized license plate with "BRzlowww" or "Bee AreZlow" not sure yet

I will post pics tmw once i get the car all nice and ready

Good day all

@Sniper2606. Curious as to why you're picking the Invidia Q300?

I had nothing but good experience with the invidia exhaust back with the STI, i do want to make a replica of my "rumble" note on the BRZ and i found it with the Q300 along with the UEL header and catless front pipe.

I spoke with Jeremy at FT86 speed factory and he assure me that this setup with invidia wont be too loud and wont have a nasty drone at highway speed.

I was going with this setup

But Jeremy said that it has a nasty drone, even tho sounds amazing but its too loud for my taste


Lastly my car

Nice dude. I was considering the q300 if my current catback is too loud with the UEL I ordered. One thing that bothered me is the q300 is mass produced in Taiwan and Tig Welded by Robot.

I prefer American Craftsmanship and using humans to weld. Lol. Quality control is much better when exhausts aren't mass produced.

I did see the q300 video with the UEL. Sounds great

Uhh.... you're driving a Toyota/Subaru love child now.

The Toyota hate don't fit no mo!


I was gonna ask, based on your license plate, if you'd removed the turbo from your STI.
