I have never been a fan of the TOMs tails but I must admit it looks flawless on WRB.

Definitely doing suspension work, just unsure how far I'm going to go into it right now.

This thread is basically a preview for me - my WRB BRZ will be here in six-ish weeks, I've got the tom's ready to go, I'm waiting for next payday to order an Invidia N1... so thanks for the hard work so I can see what I'm getting. ;D

Haha no problem man. You can't go wrong with the N1, titanium tips look great on wrb. Btw I waited 12 weeks for mine :(. But it was well worth the wait.

Sciby 10-04-2013 10:21 PM

I think i'm about 10 weeks in? Ordered on the 10th of August, expected date is 6th of Jan (but the Aus BRZ sales coordinator believes that's usually a sign of late november delivery, which I'm good with since I was told 4-5 months originally.)

Picked up a set of plasti dipped 17x7.5 +35 wheels with tires mounted off CL for $220. Not the best looking wheels but figured they would make a good winter set http://i.twstatic.net/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

littledvl 12-15-2013 11:41 AM

Had a issue with one wheel catching a piece of ice and peeling some of the plasti dip so today I peeled the wheels.. Turns out there not really gold as I thought, someone spray painted them gold and there is gloss black under that, so I think ill pop them off soon and get them sand blasted and power coated. I heated up my garage and dipped my factory wheels with 5 coats, looks soo much better imo http://i.twstatic.net/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif. Will toss them back on in the next day or 2

They look good I'm jealous man! I've been sitting on cans of black & glossifier for 2 weeks to do the same thing but it has been too cold. I should invest (good excuse) in a space heater!

Thanks man! Yeah I know the feeling, I been meaning to do the stockers for a month or so, wasted all the 60-70 degree days and ended up doing it in the 30s. Having a nice garage with fire place comes in handy :D

numbers look pretty good.

questions?
1. are you running any type of tune?
2. any cel issues or is your header catted?
3. how much louder is it compared to prior to the header, over and front pipe install?

akahenry 01-02-2014 04:16 AM

Are you going to do suspension first or wheels first?

littledvl 01-02-2014 10:13 AM

Right now I plan on doing wheels first then suspension.

littledvl 01-05-2014 04:39 PM

Got around to putting on the rally armor mud flaps to help with the winter roads, also put on the center console jdm knee pads. Still have the door speaker pads to do but need some screws.

Head blew up a few months ago and after 74 days at the dealer I got the car back a few days ago :D


I went on a roadtrip yesterday to break the car back in(got on 95 south until I ran outta gas then came back, haha), hope I can get the header back on this week and eibach lowering springs on. Tossed the 17s I got awhile ago on today and shot a few pics.

This is so nice! Got any soundclips of the Nvidia exhaust? How do you like it? Is it loud? How's the highway drone?
