Installed Subaru OEM back-up camera (from Japanparts)
 
5 Attachment(s)
Nice quality camera way better then Toyota FIT(CMOS)

Big difference in clarity from OEM (CCD) Subaru back-up camera then FIT (CMOS) recommend spending the extra $100

Did it wire right up to the stock head unit?

DESTINY-BRZ 06-05-2015 07:42 PM

Yes perfect connection head unit straight back to trunk
 
back of radio to the trunk installer's took 35 min

While you may be correct in your assumption in this case, it should be remembered that the ricer caliper covers are a boon to track cars with stock calipers.

The covers keep the brakes cooler, but above all, greasy brake dust that covers the wheel in just a few minutes of driving takes many days for the same coverage with caliper covers.

I hate cleaning wheels several times a day !

How is this thread just one picture of the camera and then a bunch of STI decals? And the logo on the gurney flap is off center.

athlon816 06-06-2015 01:26 PM

the caliper covers... make every thing bad

BobbyDee 06-06-2015 01:27 PM

Did you add EZ lip, or should I say garage liner on your front lip and side skirt? I see what you did there :P

BobbyDee 06-06-2015 01:28 PM

And the caliper covers lol. I'm sure looks great far away, but isn't fooling anyone close up

Sell your wheels and get wheel covers too.

Covers Who Cares!
 
Not sure I understand the hate on the caliber covers the Brake covers are painted red and have a cover. Who really gives a shit. What's the alternative? Let me know. I am curious. Spend 6K on Brembo. Can't see spending money to stop quicker or more efficiently. Spend the money to increase speed. Maybe I am missing something. Interested in views.

Yes same connection

Ryguystye 03-28-2016 04:27 AM


Are these the same camera? The Emerald Integrations says it's "OEM style". Is the Japan Parts one an actual OEM from the 2016 BRZ's? In either case, would they be better than the cheaper alternatives?
