DSOmegaX 2013 Subaru BRZ Limited 2019 BMW M2 Competition DCT | Build Thread Introduction Hey everyone, this build thread documents my STI tS project for my BRZ. What started as a simple OEM+ build when I first purchased the car has grown immensely into creating the zenki model that never made it here in the US. With the help and support of good friends, I am pleased to announce that the goal has been achieved! Modifications installed are listed with links to purchase for those interested.

Finally made updates to this thread. I was rear ended at a stop light recently. Minor cosmetic damage on the bumper cover, but destroyed the reinforcement bar inside.
http://s24.postimage.org/y9m1lgaph/IMG_6076_2.jpg After that, decided to come back with a vengeance! Installed Stromung and Motiv exhaust components, FA20 tune, STI springs, and a few JPM Coachwork goodies. :burnrubber: Then came back and started listing my mods and updating pics :thumbsup: |
Where did you order the blue engine cover?
Looks great!! Is that the park in Irvine? |
Ahhh my twin is coming along quite nicely ;)

How much of a drop from the STI springs? link had little info.
Beautiful build. |
I just noticed your rear ended pic. :/ Hope the repairs are straightforward... would a replacement reinforcement bar just bolt in?

Nice build, glad to hear you're okay from the accident.
Shopping around for a front / over pipe for 6AT. I see you have the Motiv combination. How did it fit? Their website says it's made of stainless steel, but do you know what type? |

flex which will make daily drive a little bit more uncomfortable. Is that correct? Thanks. Ps. How about change the springs? I know will lower the car which looks better. Any benefit for daily driving? Thanks again. |

The STI goodies continue to roll in. Added the oil filler cap and shift knob to the car. I was actually quite surprised how heavy the knob was for an AT shifter.
http://s21.postimage.org/y3es1nruf/STI_Goodies.jpg http://s7.postimage.org/w1hnq0rh7/STI_Shift_Knob.jpg http://s9.postimage.org/41hvga3jj/STI_Oil_Filler.jpg On that note, my interior is nearly complete. The next steps are: 1. Armrest: my 86 aichi japan unit is currently backordered so I'm not sure when I'll receive this, but it should be within then next week or so. It's the removable type that covers the entire center glovebox. I decided to go with this one over hinge designs like the OEM one because I feel its just easier and cleaner to just remove the armrest whenever there are drinks. Not liking the idea of having an armrest in an awkward open position, especially if there's a passenger. 2. Speaker Pads: going for JDM, of course, but I want to take it one step further. I will be purchasing the 6 piece set that has the silver ring trim pieces. I will then be shipping them over to JPM Coachworks to have them wrapped in alcantara. Thus, I get the best of both worlds. JDM design with beautiful alcantara material. It's too bad JPM can't just source the JDM units. 3. Alcantara Steering Wheel: speaking of JPM Coachworks, can't wait to purchase their steering wheel. Adds a touch of class AND will be comfortable and grippy in the hands. I can't get enough go how great their quality is. 4. Badge of Ownership: finally decided to get my badge of ownership from Subaru. I wanted to add something to the silver dashboard trim and this looks like the perfect item for a little personal mod. Decided to go simple and just get the main badge (my 1st Subaru! :thumb up:) and add the performance badge to it. I will be adding it to the passenger side of the trim. http://s23.postimage.org/fesljysi3/2...Z_Interior.jpg So those are the items I plan to be adding for sure. Other than that, still up in the air. I can complete my alcantara set by getting the handbrake boot but for some reason I like how the faux leather trim of the boot matches the color scheme of the soft plastic, but we shall see. Anyway, if you guys have got ideas or feedback for me, feel free to give them here! :thumbsup: |
More additions to the car. Finished up the LED lighting with the courtesy lights from HID Powerhouse. They are definitely a lot brighter than I thought it would be, but its definitely a nice addition. Adds some lighting to the cabin when the door is open, especially since I don't like using the dome light (something about having a bright LED light illuminating your whole face in the black night seems awkward to me).
http://s14.postimage.org/607grcnpt/Courtesy_Lights.jpg Couldn't resist grabbing a shot of the boomerang while I was testing the lights out. http://s14.postimage.org/ny1dmn1n5/DSC03863.jpg Also finally received my 86 armrest from Aichi Japan. This is a specialty dealer option from Aichi Toyota. It is NOT OEM, but definitely has OEM quality. It's also my favorite design by far among all the armrests out there. Not a big fan of the actual OEM armrest because I feel like when you do have drinks you leave it in its upright position. Just looks weird, especially if there is a passenger. Up next are my rear view camera, STI strut bar, and Grazio tinted side markers! |
Great build so far. I will be getting my WRB Limited 6MT in about a weeks time and will be taking some inspiration from your posts :thumbup: I especially like your badge of ownership idea... I think that will be a cool touch.

Super clean ride.

Thanks to @MikesFRS for taking a quick video of my Stromung exhaust free reving. I am looking to get some more robust video of the exhaust as the car is running both in and outside of the cabin.

I love the OEM+ style you're going for, along with switchlanez and Beyer Subaru.
Keep the pics coming!! |
