Perth86. Gone to the Dark Side. Garrett GenII, Closed Deck, Forged, Headwork
 

Some of you guys might have wondered why the topic for this build thread is "Great Idea. I'll start!".. that's because it was the first post on the sub-forum way back when.
It's a habit of mine not to edit/delete anything online but I'd thought it'd be easier for other people to see what's the low down on this thread instead of the title being esoteric.

Details

Modifications
http://i57.tinypic.com/2a0npd5.png

Objective
Function/Form with a nice dose of aesthetics while remaining lightweight as possible.
I'll be using JDM KWALITEE parts where available. OR.. If there is no comparable JDM equivalent, I'll be using ADM or USDM parts. OR..
If there is a USDM part that is available and superior to any JDM equivalent, then I'll be using USDM
Car will remain naturally aspirated for as long as possible - the way the car is intended to be.

BEFORE-AFTER
http://i61.tinypic.com/xeoee.png

Have you already taken delivery of the car?

He's in Australia, I don't even know if the poor bastards down there have got official pricing yet...

Correct, no pricing as yet :thumbdown::mad0259::cry:

Keep your hopes up! Subaru in Canada traditionally rips us off, and they were slow with pricing. They surprised us with a fair one.

Cross your fingers, say your prayers and sacrifice your virgins...

I hope either Toyota or Subaru surprise us.......in a good way:thumbsup:
we'll keep waiting till then

Got them!
 

Just received my rims from the DHL courier 20mins ago..

*Lightweight" racing nut/lug
http://i47.tinypic.com/2jacghf.jpg

(These are around the weight of a AAA battery, I was suprised at the lightness of them)

Where's that spooge gif? Nice wheel choice!

This is the look I hope to acheive..
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/attac...1&d=1336420832

Btw I was incorrect, the racing nuts are equivalent to the weight of a Double "A" battery, not a Triple "A". Here is a comparo pic.

http://i47.tinypic.com/2ia332o.jpg : http://i46.tinypic.com/2hdz19v.jpg

Just be real careful with those Al lug nuts. No air tools. Use a torque wrench. Trust me.

How much do Wedsport wheels cost for the set? Are they more spensib than the Enkei RPF-1 or PF01?

Cost me about ~$2650 for the wheels, racing AL nuts and the hub centric rings. This includes the shipping/duty/gst/tariff/disbursement. The wheels themselves were only around $405-$410 AUD each. But I had to pay an extra 700ish for shipping and customs.

Wheel and tire specs? This is exactly what i want my BRZ to look like!

Great choice :thumbup:

Wheel: WedsSport TC105N 17x80 5x100PCD +42 (http://www.wedssport.jp/products/english/tc105n.html)
Tyre: Michelin Primacy HP 215/45/17 - the STOCK tyre the BRZ/86 uses.
