After a longer drive (>20 min) I noticed that the seat was very uncomfortable. The side bolsters would push into the sides of my upper back, the shoulder bolsters pushed my shoulders and my lower back was killing me from the lack of lumbar support. I am about 6'2 240.
Took the BRZ to a local upholstery shop and they modified the the seat to my body. They shaved off some of the hard foam and replaced it with memory foam and added lumbar support. Now I can drive for hours comfortably. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/attac...1&d=1360686581 |
Nice! There's an upholstery shop right down the street from where I work. I wonder if I could trust them to put some more padding in the thigh area for me when I get one. My only complaint about the seat is that there's no rake adjustment so I can't get any thigh support.

They took half and inch off the rear side bolsters and replaced it with memory foam. The lumbar is memory foam too. They did a real nice job and I will probably have some upholstery projects for them in the future. I wish we had adjustable extended thigh support for those with longer legs, can't think of a clever way to remedy that though. |
Can you take a sound clip of the Legamax for us? Right now there's only a tiny clip avail. from HKS but there's music playing over it; you really can't hear it well. And tell us how you like the sound! My friend and I might want a Legamax, too.

Gees, it's like you had a stack of money waiting to be thrown at a brand-new car when you got it! Must be nice! :thumbsup:
love that exhaust! |

Just kidding, for the record I saved up for a long time and it's bought and paid for :w00t: |

I will take some video of it later when I have the chance though, but it would be from my smart phone and the sound probably won't translate well. |
Nice! Yours is the only other CBS Premium with spoiler added besides mine that I've seen here. Only difference is our transmissions.
:happy0180: |
Looks great! I've always thought black cars looked better with more chrome accents. I think you should get those installed too :paddle:

don't you just hate it when the tips isn't right in the middle, seem like the tips is more to the left, now I know what exhaust not to buy
