At a glance I just loved the look, but I had to go back for a second look since something seemed different. Immediately noticed the lights. Now I need to do that. Adding it to the impossibly long list of things to do.

Got the RMA number and will be sending this unit in for inspection. Hoping to get a replacement or similar permanent solution to this leak. Feel like the more I mess around with the parts the more likely other things could go wrong. Hoping for the best here.

I wish you luck and many reliable hours of boost once this gets fixed.

Mine took about 1.5-2 months to arrive. It's a well built kit and I'm happy with it so far, but just keep that in mind. Even if you are quoted much less than that.

I might change them since it's not finished yet. They way I have them now, while ugly, they are guaranteed out of the way of exhaust and drive belts.

Yeah, I didn't expect much less than that. Oh well, I'll probably buy it towards the end of the year and get it next spring.

theres enough room to get them out of the way of anything, so don't worry about that. Ill snap a pic of mine for you if you want.

No issues with keeping them that way, I just wanted to bust your chops

Look what I have!

Yeeah, I'm gonna have to ask you to install that now. No breaks. Hop to it!

erok81 · 07-02-2015, 11:07 PM

Done! I don't know how you are supposed to route them but that's how I did mine.

Also bad news brz fellows. The fog light doesn't fit. At least without modifying something. I haven't looked yet. Time to start the car though!

That's exactly how! We have the local BRZ coming in next week so I will let you know what we come up with.

Well crap. Thanks for the update, though! Very sleek look to it.

Stupid question of the day, can the cooler not be mounted on top of the engine and allow for a hood scoop to provide airflow, or does it need to be below the oil filter for drainage reasons?

Would figment be the same for the Frs since the brz doesn't fit in terms of fog lights ?
