OK back in town! Did a few things, but first. Confirmed! The BRZ can kill birds...sorry little guy but maybe you should not fly so low? All I heard was a thud on the way back from Michigan and stopped to fill up in Davenport, Iowa. Found this lovely art display.

Ok got home to my package that I have been waiting since March to get. My VG shark fin antenna. Yup, happy with it! Here is a bunch of angles for people wondering how they sit.

Now I was promised some extra goodies in the box because of the massive amounts of delays for this fin. Well I was disappointed to say the least. But hey, now my keyboard has a cool little touch of 86 to it.

Little update. Burned up the rest of the 10% ethanol gas I had to fill up with on my mini road trip. Filled up today with my 91 non ethanol gas, crickets are gone. Drove around for an hour, still none.

Ordered the STi Front lip as well. Oh man it is beginning!

Khazzy 08-25-2013 07:47 PM

car is running perfectly without crickets. Proved my theory to myself.

Anywho got out to the parking garage today to take some amateur iPhone photos and couple of vids. Enjoy! Loving how my car has been coming along. Just gotta wait for the STi Goodies and I will be set until the warranty runs out. Then MOAR POWAAA.

Those wheels are so pretty

Khazzy 08-25-2013 08:30 PM

not bad for some 150 dollar wheels lol. Thanks! Your TRD wheels are prettier haha. Wish I had the funds at the time to grab the STi Wheels in black but I am in no way disappointed with my choice.

Oooh! I like what you did with the car! Like 90%same of what I plan on doing to mine web I get it! Btw where did you get the silicone intake tube and rally mudflaps from and for how much each? Those will be most likely my first mods since the roads down around here have alot of gravel on them sadly >.<

Rally Armor's directly from Rally Armor through Amazon (Had money to spend on Amazon) and the AVO silicone tubes I got from a vendor on here. MIKECZP I think is his user name. Same place I got my Perrin Exhaust, killer group buy price.

This was the cheapest I found for the AVO tubing online when I ordered. Still think they are the cheapest. Great customer service.

So do you really notice a difference in sound with the sound tube? Or is it only noticeable from like revving car at stand still without all the wind noise?

sound tube makes no difference, was changed to match the rest and perfect fitment. Intake hose with a drop in dry filter does have a different sound, little more throttle response. Not sure what you mean without the wind noise, that was an exhaust clip. But you will hear more air getting sucked in with the hood up if that is what you are asking.

Ahmeda 08-25-2013 11:43 PM

no i know intake gives it a different sound but sometimes while driving you cant hear the noise due to all the air around the car while going like 50-60mph? lol so is the sound tube actually made to create more noise or reduce noise? im new at this stuff xD

Khazzy 08-25-2013 11:50 PM

It is there to induce an intake note into the cabin. Does nothing more. You will hear it higher RPM but that is about it and then you hear the engine more than the intake note.

Ahmeda 08-26-2013 12:02 AM

oh ok, good to know! man i cant wait to get my FRS! :D so many mods im already itching to work on and add and i dont even have the car yet!

Khazzy 09-02-2013 08:45 PM
