CONGRATULATIONS on your purchase and WELCOME to .... The Forum ......:clap:

Mighty fine looking automobile!

I suggest you NOT "mess" with it ...... just wax it, use premium gas, follow the recommended maintenance schedule ....... and drive it.

Which "Oil City" are you from ...... ??

Don't feel bad when family wagons and soccer mom vans take off quicker or go around you on the right lane. Oh and when Hondas rev at you.

Other than that, hope you have a clear bra, break it in slowly and have many ideas on what you want to do with it. Take it slow. One idea at a time.

Mailman1117 04-16-2016 07:36 PM

I haven't gotten the "crickets" yet. Actually got the car at the end of February but my account was messed up on here and wouldn't let me post. I'm just shy of 2000 miles on it.

I just got my Open Flash Tablet last week. Definitely fixes the torque dip a lot. Thinking about headers next.

I've been researching for almost a year and there are so many options that I get lost. I've heard really good things about the Invidia N1.

ShadowyBRZ 04-16-2016 07:54 PM

Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

If you want something loud and nice sounding. Invidia N1

Something quiet? Invidia q300

My opinions. I got both of those but N1 is on my BRZ right now :D

I was looking at nameless uel catted headers too. I don't want the neighbors to hate me when I start it up before work.

I saved for a year for the down payment and honestly I couldn't be happier with my purchase. You will love it.

I say leave it from fi until you get headers, exhaust, e85 and tune.

I did e85 and loved it. It was enough for me. Now back to stock.

Congrats mailman! Got mine feb also! So far i just have a perrin cold air and intake pipe. Love it! I would have been ok with just the pipe but it was used local for a heck of a price so i nabbed it. Bonus is now its ca legal!

So you mentioned getting a catted uel header. Ehhhh not much of a gain on catted headers. Does pa require smog? I bought a 240sx in bucks county waaaaaay back in the day but i dont remember emissions laws there. Might be worth razzing the locals for the extra grunt without a cat. Im considering an el of some sort after i fit some pbm coilovers amd wheels.

The 16 is great! So glad i didnt wait for the 17 refresh lol

Suggestive posters are mandatory in the workplace for my forum team! Have you never seen my posts before?

very nice choice with the color
m/t?
i've never driven automatic for FR-S/BRZ so i can't say if it's worse or better than M/T but the M/T i had was amazing

Mvhs09 04-17-2016 02:24 PM

The automatic is zero fun imo. Congratulations on the car!!
