2013 Limited SWP bye STI -BRzlowww-

All

Morning/Afternoon/Evening,Diego here from Oklahoma city OK (not a thunder fan)

On April Wednesday 17 2013 for some odd reason i decided to swing by the Subie dealer and perhaps drive a BRZ, hour later after test drive i place my order for a SWP Limited BRZ.

Words couldn't describe how happy i was with this test drive, the car is just a "masterpiece" i had a smile on my face the whole time,went ahead and traded my STI for the BRZ. STI never really put a smile in my face for some reason, even with the mods and how sick it looked, see pics.

Had 31k miles on STI owe $21k to the bank, dealer gave me $28k for the STI. Paid $28k for the BRZ, had $7k to play around with but i decided to put it towards the BRZ to pay the same amount monthly but less insurance. Also got a free tint and 2 years oil change, not to mentioned 2.9% rate, couldn't pass the deal up.

Enuff with all this boring history, here are the pics of my ex NAsti :popcorn:

My BRZ will be here tomorrow Monday 22nd.

Already order new tires and rims = 18x8 Enkei Tuning Raijin BLK with 235/35ZR-18 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2

Also order the Spyder Tail lights all smoked out

Order a set of LED white fog light bulbs/reverse bulb/license plate bulb.

I will do UEL header, with invidia q300 once i break in the car nicely a the not planing on putting a turbo untill around 20k miles.

Most likely i will get a personalized license plate with "BRzlowww" or "Bee AreZlow" not sure yet

Good day all

@Sniper2606. Curious as to why you're picking the Invidia Q300?

I had nothing but good experience with the invidia exhaust back with the STI, i do want to make a replica of my "rumble" note on the BRZ and i found it with the Q300 along with the UEL header and catless front pipe.

I spoke with Jeremy at FT86 speed factory and he assure me that this setup with invidia wont be too loud and wont have a nasty drone at highway speed.

I was going with this setup

But Jeremy said that it has a nasty drone, even tho sounds amazing but its too loud for my taste


Lastly my car

I have a buddy in Omaha that has a 2012 STi with the same license plate. Nebraska plate, of course.

Nice dude. I was considering the q300 if my current catback is too loud with the UEL I ordered. One thing that bothered me is the q300 is mass produced in Taiwan and Tig Welded by Robot.

I prefer American Craftsmanship and using humans to weld. Lol. Quality control is much better when exhausts aren't mass produced.

I did see the q300 video with the UEL. Sounds great :)

Uhh.... you're driving a Toyota/Subaru love child now.

I was gonna ask, based on your license plate, if you'd removed the turbo from your STI. :bellyroll:
