The Goal:
To achieve the closest JDM tS build based on the MY17 BRZ as possible.

The Influences:
There others who have gone down this route such as @kuczynskika and @DSOmegaX and I had always been a huge fan of their progress and the dedication to keeping something in-house (in this case STI) as far as mods go.

After seeing the 2017 BRZ STI Sport Concept at the Tokyo Auto Salon, and learning about the subtle yet significant MY17 changes which closely resembled this concept - I knew I had to order one.

The 2017 BRZ STI Sport Concept:

New Look

The Conclusion:
I'm very excited to continue modifying this car and thread based on the above principals of sticking to an all 'in-house' STI/tS build. I will continue to update this thread with my progress in hopes of also positively having an impact on the car community, especially with our FT86/BRZ/FRS Community!

Thanks for taking a look and feel free to reach out!
