BRZ Functional DD-AutoX-Light Track Duty Budget Build
 

Originally I was going to continue updating my FRS build thread with my BRZ, but I want a fresh start for the BRZ.

Link to my 2013 FRS: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=118302

As some of you may know my FRS was rear ended at a traffic light and totalled:

The plan for my BRZ is similar to my FRS, very lightly modded, a good daily driver and occasional track duty
The morning after I picked up my 2015 BRZ Sport Tech, 40,000 KM.

I couldn't get what I want for the Authentic TRD Spoiler. So I bough some wrap and ask my friend little brother to help me out with wrapping my spoiler. He works professionally at a local Vinyl shop. the colour is very close to Silica Black

My turn to scrape off all of the old 3M tape and apply new tape, I had to double the tape because the JDM 3M is a lot thicker.

Well the plan all a long was RCE Yellow combines with 2017 GT86 shock dampers that I had originally bough for my FRS, but I found a crazy deal on a set of like new Tein FLEX A that I could not pass up.
I know there are better option out there like Tarmac 2, But I dont have that type of cash to drop on my car, So this will do for me just fine.

Haven't done much to the car, I bough an exhaust tip off Amazon for $40 CAD, and we modified the Nameless Axle back to fit the exhaust tip on. went from a 2.5" to a 4" look so much better.
