when I first bought this car.
 
i thought I was going to turbo or supercharge it. new tires and wheels.
did I ....no...and it still puts a smile on my face.

more straightline hrp would be nice.......but thats the not all end all

In the last 3 years my brz had only a new cf antenna and it still is "fun to drive".

perfect right out of the box but the stock 'learner tire' rubber.


i did throw on some scion mudguards but that probably going to be about it.

Learner tire rubber is just fine too. Any changes are basically "season to taste."

If there was more grunt down the lower end of the range it'll be even better. However taking hard turns in this car is a guaranteed way to make you smile. :thumbup:

I think its adorable in a straight to be honest, It tries so hard and makes all this noise now that i put headers and a tune on it...aaaand still nothing :) Grated the headers did make the low end much more lively. Perfect power output in my eyes for mid corner mashing though.

Adorable the word that every man wants to use to describe his sport car

This is FT86club guys.... don't let anyone read about you making fun of the FA20. It is God's gift afterall. Any more power in this chassis would simply be too much.

I've still haven't added much power modifications to mine.. Just exhaust to listen to it's sound :wub:

I do also have wheels and tires though:thumbsup: Still loving this car.

Yeah honestly full exhaust and tune is great IMO. My car was never stock long so I cant compare it to how it came from the factory but I am more then satisfied with the power levels
