*KID*Firestorm Build/properly built to my taste
 
Starting another journal. This time Im going to try and keep up with everything.

I got this car back in June 2012. The intensions with this car is to have a mild setup up with good power, like it shoulda been from the factory, and slowly getting all the neat Toyota pieces. As far as suspension goes, Im a big geek for that so I have a list and wheels still open for some new CCWs or Volks TE37SL. My time is very limited with work and business, so it will be hard to use the car for track, but I will make time for it once I have a go.

As mods go on the car Ill be updating the this OP

GT86/BRZ Spoiler installed

Getting my order ready for the TEIN street flex suspension and Perrin Oil Cooler next.

Kelbyat07 04-21-2013 12:07 AM

Oh someone who has the BRZ/86 spoiler on the FRS. Is it me or does it look a little to small? (length wise)

*KID* 05-12-2013 07:28 PM

Ordered my Stage 1 suspension upgrades

Swift lowering springs
Eibach front and rear sway bars (can't beat the price for the pair)
and ordered a berk track pipe

We'll see if I get to order some Dunlops next friday to prepare for some Autox in June

What type of wheels are you looking to get in the future?

DarkCard 05-12-2013 11:11 PM

wow nice little jump in hp from the front pipe over pipe, makes me wonder if I picked up any from my front pipe install (untuned)

TRD_07 05-13-2013 12:37 AM

The dyno chart looks good.

I was initially going to go all out with Tein coilovers, and squared volks te37s with rs3 but Im having a boy on the way... which is why I settled for the Springs...so wheel choice would have to be cut in half so Im looking into the 18in. Wedsport TC01

I could have made more but oil temperature was holding back timing, so Ill be ordering the Perrin oil cooler next and get it retuned.

Updated OP

Car is feeling GREAT!

*KID* 05-20-2013 07:02 PM

Swift springs came in today...

Finally I get to close my gap a bit.
