Ultramarine in the Desert (huge photos)
 
Sooo, now that I've got the car professionally detailed I think its due time that I start a real log before any major changes are done to the car.
Its an Ultramarine 6MT, car #500!

Currently working with AIRAID in Phoenix to develop a cold air intake. Dyno testing to be posted as soon as the project has been completed.

My Flickr photo set that I will periodically update with picture progress:

Second photo is my Xavier.

Looking good.

!hay other plans you got?

mattles 05-21-2012 12:46 PM

No concrete plans yet other than to get the production model airaid intake once its completed, and then figure out which exhaust to get.

hows your radio reception without the antenna ?

First time seeing pictures of this color in the sun, now I see the purple that shows in just the right light. I still love the color, and it's the one I ordered for the BRZ!

Silly question, but do you know Ultramarine blue is not the same as World Rally Blue on the BRZ?

Are you really sure you ordered Ultramarine?

I was referring to the galaxy blue silica.

Yeah I just realized now that the BRZ's in the states are allowed to order the same Ultramarine as seen on the FR-S.

Here in Canada, us poor bastards only get 3 colours for the BRZ and Galaxy Blue Silica is not one of them.

I tried to not edit the photos too much, so the colours you see are as close as I could get to the real-world colour shift with the ultramarine/galaxy blue paint. Realistically the car always looks different to my eye which is one of the things I like most about it.

Hit me up if you want to high res photos done. B.T.W. Thursday nights we have a Subaru meet off the 17 and deer valley at the red robin. You are welcome to come hang out and have a bit to eat.

I thought it was four colours? Black, white, silver and WRB...
