Alita's NA Series.Blue Build (powered by crickets)
 
Well, it seems to be the thing to do... so I'm making a thread.

I've gone back and forth quite a bit on the subject of FI, but the more I drive the car, the more I'm happy with it being NA. So, NA it is.

I will probably keep the car relatively stock looking, but do have plans to do quite a bit of work on it.

Thus far, I have installed...

PERRIN 3" CAI
PERRIN 3" Catback Exhaust
PERRIN 2.5" Overpipe
PERRIN Lightweight Crank Pulley
PERRIN Lightweight Accessory Pulley Kit
PERRIN Inlet Hose
Smoked Side Markers
Valenti Smoked Tail Lights
Valenti Smoked Rear Light Bar
Rexspeed Convex Side Mirrors (turns out I have heated mirrors, so I'll be replacing these with the heated version)

Opti-Coat (doesn't really count, but I feel is worth mentioning)
SunTek Clear Bra (full hood & fenders)


Arriving Soon...
Crawford Air/Oil Separator
PST Carbon Fiber Driveshaft



Shortly after getting it:

just got my Valenti's installed. Rewired them so the triangle is another brake light. I will probably remove the brake light from my rear window, as I currently have four, and only need three.

Also, I just had Opti-Coat and a clear bra installed, so I'm happy about that.
The people who applied the Opti-Coat took several pictures after they were done, so once I get my hands on those, I'll post some daylight pictures of the Valenti's.

Awesome car! I have my appointment with my detailer on the 20th for opticoat. Mind PMing me the price you paid after it was all said and done? Subbed!

going to be out of town for a month, so i won't get to do anything until i get back >.<

also, i've decided on the wheels i will be putting on my brz next year (waiting until after winter).

so pretty!

oh wow, i just just adjusted the clutch engagement point per: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8040

i can't recommend this enough, especially for anyone not tall. i no longer care about stop and go traffic, and getting moving up hills has become significantly easier, and with no roll back.

driving just got more fun ^_^

JoeHK 08-16-2014 09:12 AM

Car looks great! Very clean build! I'm curious to how those wheels will look! :D

you gonna do headers soon or naw?

Clipdat 08-17-2014 07:49 PM

Nice wheel choice. Can't wait to see them mounted.

i've been loosely shopping around for headers, but i haven't really decided on one. if PTUNING would put a cat on their EL header, i'd have already ordered one >.<

it's hurting me to wait until next year for those wheels. i'm going to put winter tires on my stock wheels for this winter, so with timing and all, it just makes more sense to wait to change the wheels until after winter.

also... some more pictures.
