Coupe's 2013 BRZ
 
Recently picked up my BRZ Limited. Like most people I got through the break in period fairly quick, less then 2 weeks. This is my first new car, and first RWD car.

Within a week I took a roadtrip back to my college town, which has some really nice views.

And my other two wheel drive Subaru, which is a winter beater/rallyx car.

The modding bug has begun to dig in. So far it is all small normal stuff. Tint(35 front/10 rear), weathertech mats, carbon fiber vinyl wrap interior. My big project so far was making my own rear seat delete. Also added two eye bolts in the trunk to act as anchor points for bungee cords or trunk net.

Rear seat delete, still have sound deadening to do.

Seats still recline plenty when all the way back

I currently have 8340 miles on the car, bought it just over 5 months ago. I bought it within 48 hours of getting back from working for 5 months on a ship overseas. I have been on "vacation" since I got home and am moving on to a different company which has a better schedule.

My plans:
MAPerformance Turbo kit tuned to ~350 whp at first
18x(8-9) wheels
Coilovers with no or 1" drop
Borla catback exhaust and rear diffuser
TRD rear window louvers
Lip kit(probably STi replica)
STi brembo brakes(from ~08 STi)

Pretty much all I have planned right now.

What bungee cord did you use for this and where did you anchor your eye bolts at?

Just seeing this, I sold my car a few months ago. I took the eye bolts out and replaced them with dzus fasteners like on motorcycles. They have a loop to hook the bungee cord into. I used the lower push clip spots, removed the clips and put the hardware in the hole. No idea on the bungee cord system, bought it at sams club a while ago

love the Trunk bungee setup.

Someone should write a DIY on this.

Better plan - adhesive backed hook Velcro. Slap it on the bottom of any plastic bin that can contain your shit, and it'll sit there all day long, dd, track, whateva. I just added the Weathertech trunk liner and will have to stick on some loop stuff, but, Velcro is your friend, friend.
