New brz owner
 

Hi guys my names andrew,

Just traded in my 07 GTI for a 13 brz out in seattle and joined the forum. I have always been fan of this car and had a major itch for a rwd so this caught my eye at an acura dealer in they're used lot. So far i can see bone stock limited no mods to it. So my first plan is to just save until i can turbo it and exhaust. Ill post pics when i furge out how. But any hints on what to look out for id really appreciate it also if anyone lives in washington area let me know :D:cool:

Hey congrats and welcome.. seems like a great catch there. Turbo.. and exhaust huh.. that's fun! enjoy.

Welcome to the family. I honestly would recommend stickier tires if you're going turbo. I would beef up the suspension first. The stock Primacy's likes to let loose.

I saw the girl in the drivers seat and read the owners name...and I'm like... She does NOT look like an "andrew" lol

Congratulations and welcome to the community. The stock car is a delight to play around in.

The only real mod I can see is the tails are got redded out and it came with a girl in the drivers seat, but welcome to the club!

congrat! and welcome. post more pictures of you................+ car lol

Yeah i get free tires through my base in stationed at and i had bc br on my gti before so ill go that route again just i wish i went performance before susupension on my last car so thought id do turbo and exhaust first.

That background looks very familiar, I venture to guess that's the Acura dealership in Southcenter/Tukwila?

Anyways, congrats and welcome!

Haha your right

Congrats - welcome. Great group here with tons of info. You will find anything you want to know + some things you might not.

Here is a little plug - make sure to check out the drift office up in Auburn if you are thinking of a turbo. Bob is a great guy and one of the best tuners for our platform around.

Awesome was just about to ask whats a good shop near here im in whidbey island.

totally off topic, but i'm looking for a megasquirt tuner. know anyone?

Can't go wrong there. He's the real deal and knows his stuff. Paul from AVO is in the same office space so if you determine that is a potential for your build - it's a great 1-2 combo.

I am a little biased since they did my BRZ and I couldn't be happier. I can tell you this - Bob stands by his work and his goal is to do your car and never have to hear from you again. Not because he doesn't like his customers - but it means he did his job correctly.

Have fun with the car - it's an awesome canvas.

Have you checked Pornhub?



Sorry! Had to do it. And to answer your question - no I don't but thanks for teeing that one up hehe. Doesn't take much to amuse me.:thanks:

:threadjacked:

i'll probably just fly out my florida guy then. i've not heard very good reports from local forums.

Ill keep the shop in mind i have to sell my R6 to buy car parts haha

Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

you should sell.

buy a dual sport. go camping. you live in one of the best camping states in the union.

:D

I love my R6 but it rains so damm much here so will free up funds to throw a turbo in easy. :cool:

I feel more comfortable with turbo i dont want to go all out and do e85 kit

Oh nooo

Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

you don't have to go e85, how did you derive that from a supercharger suggestion? listen, i've owned many turbo cars (none of which were factory turboed) and this is the first car that i think would be better on a blower. turbos are just not a good fit for the twins, imo. you don't really need 251whp to have a good time in a brz. if you think you need more power, you bought the wrong car.

plus you're navy! cash flush! where's your Z06 and small yacht? ;) (i have a few navy friends who blow their money on stuff they never get to use)

I'll also throw my hat into the bob at drift office is awesome party. couldn't be happier with my tune and spending an hour talking to him you'll learn more than spending a month scouring the forum.

you might be the only one saying that. I know someone who went fully bolted na to sc and then to turbo and regretted wasting money on the na and sc builds. her man drives a sc twin and he can't wait to turbo it after driving her car. and if you talk to bob, he'll suggest going turbo route if you want some FI flavoring in your car.

I have seen a few builds with super chargers and a all the ones i have seen that were 400+ whp had e85 kits. Thats why i was hesitant.
