OEM+ BRZ Limited
Well, it didn't really seem worth posting any photos until I started modifying my BRZ, so, since I got around to installing my suspension and wheels today it seems like it's time to share.
Purchased on 8/15/13 with 7 miles. https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5510/...bc5deb1f_b.jpg image by drew.markey, on Flickr https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3711/...57b682fd_b.jpg image by drew.markey, on Flickr Been to the mountains a few times already. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7452/...9837931b_b.jpg image by drew.markey, on Flickr And now with a few little changes. :) https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5544/...068da027_b.jpg image by drew.markey, on Flickr https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2853/...d8a31ebe_b.jpg image by drew.markey, on Flickr https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5486/...c78b78d2_b.jpg image by drew.markey, on Flickr https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7369/...83f4577f_b.jpg image by drew.markey, on Flickr https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2863/...7fcd1b82_b.jpg image by drew.markey, on Flickr https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3769/...819f5033_b.jpg image by drew.markey, on Flickr Wheels: BBS Impul forged 2-piece construction Front- 18x9 et25 with 215/40 tires Rear- 18x10 et37 (40 - 3mm spacer) with 235/40 tires Suspension: BC Racing BR Coilovers Outside of that just 35% window tint and a K&N drop in filter for now. More to come in the future. Hope you like it as much as I do! :) |
Your car has one of those "clean" looks to it. I love it. Props!
|
Good show, sir! Classy, not boy racer!
|
This wheel/drop/colour combo looks amazing!
|
Yum, Impuls. Great choice. Originally 5x100, or redrilled?
|
Hey Drew its Aaron! Way to rep brother the new setup is amazing!
|
Damn, those wheels are boss. Super clean.
|
Thanks, guys. I'm loving it so far. Still got a long way to go before it's "perfect," but I'm very happy with the look and feel of the car now. :)

As it goes, originally for IMPUL x Nissan, I wanna say if was either the 240sx or 300zx they came from.

Any rubbing? btw nice build so far keep us posted!
|
Very minimal rubbing up front right now, and I've only heard it rub out back a couple of times over big bumps. I'm going to let it settle for a couple of days and then adjust the height back up just a hair. Got to do the alignment, too, but again I want to wait until it's settled and adjusted first. I do have the camber plates maxxed out up front, and no other camber adjustment parts installed.

Nicely done bro... Love the clean lines and rice free!
|
Nothing new on the car, but I forgot to update the thread with my newest pictures. :P

Nice car, but to comment you have great vision in where and how you take photos that part I am impressed with greatly. :w00t:
|
Thanks! Here are some photos from today. :)

GREAT looking car!!

I figured I'm overdue for an update here. Added shifter and rear subframe bushing inserts recently, ordered some clear side marker lights, and refinished the wheels. I took them apart and had the centers painted to match the body color, the hex caps and lips professionally polished, and got some 225/40 and 255/35 Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires to round it all off. Wheels going on by this weekend. Can. Not. Wait.

And here they are on the car. Very, very pleased with this setup! :)

Car is looking great! I really like what you've done.

CLLLLLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!
If you ever have the time and extra discretionary income, I think adding a OEM '15 fin/beatsonic(non-sharky) to replace the antenna would seriously boost the overall look! |

Here's how the car is sitting now. 2005 STi BBS 17x8" wheels with ISC 25mm adapters (et28 final offset) and 225/45 Sumitomo HTR tires. I swapped out the suspension for Bilstein B14 PSS coilovers with Raceseng CasCam plates, and am thoroughly enjoying the improvement in the ride quality and handling. The BBS Impul wheels are for sale in the classified section. I absolutely love them, but would like to go with an 18x8.5 setup with 225 tires all around since I'm not making the power that these 255 PSS rear tires deserve. I'll probably sell the STi setup, too. I have a wheel problem. :) |
The Impuls are sooooo nice
