真夜中の雪 (Midnight Snow) ☆BRZ☆
 
Hey guys! I've finally decided to document my build of my Limited SWP BRZ, also called Yuki. I bought her in January of 2015 brand new off the lot. She also happens to be my first brand new car I've bought, coming from two MR2's and two Integras. I've started this like 9 months into owning the car but I've had a few things done already. I wish I had started this when I bought the car but I guess it's never to late to start right? Well for starters I'll just list some of the parts I have on the car as of right now. I'll update as I add on more parts and whatnot.
I am also a photographer so I like taking my own pictures and anyone is welcomed to take some of my car as well!

Incredible... !

Nicely done.

Awesome set-up cant wait to mod my SWP . One thing I noticed , you make it hard for me to leave the stock taillights, I keep wanting to order the TOM's rears. But , for some reason the clear stockers look so right on the SWP.

How are you liking the Coil-overs ? are they harsh ? good damping ?

Subie_Nubie 09-14-2015 11:02 AM

Beautiful SWP dude, those Enkeis are sick. Too bad you don't live in the DFW area, I could use some photos for my car :w00t:

I can't wait to see what you'll be doing to it! Really? I'm about to buy the jdm tom's because i personally like that better on the SWP. But the stock ones do look pretty good on our cars. But i think the all red will give it a little more pop to the car. But thanks man!

Thank you man! I appreciate the love! They are! I was actually not going to buy the enkeis at first. I was going to buy some gram lights 57dr but i saw these for cheap with hankook rs3s on the forums and picked it up the next day haha. Ahh maybe if I ever do go to the area to visit family and friends there, we can get a shoot going!

Nice build man, I'm looking to buy that same exhaust in about a month, but can't find good reviews on here.

I was wondering is there any drone at cruising speeds and how much louder is it compared to stock?
What site did you purchase it from?

Thanks man! The exhaust is actually REALLY quiet. Almost stock quiet. It's a tad bit louder and sounds beefier than the stock exhaust but theres no drone whatsoever at cruising speeds. It sounds like a stock exhaust at cruising speed. You would expect it to be loud and all for a 4.5in tip, but the big ass resonator makes it quiet. I actually purchased it through my friend who works at a distribution center. So he gets warehouse price. I bought mine for $685 brand new.

Hahaha! Maybe when I get new wheels I might be selling them! But right now I like these wheels haha. Ohh what specs are you looking to get? It's actually only off by 1 mph faster. Not much of a difference really. Mpg did go down though with the wider tires and bigger wheels haha.

It's a clean build, but you need to add some power to the car!! That catback won't do anything to your performance haha :)
