The Lugs are 12X1.25, both the FR-S and BRZ are the same.

You'll need 20 of them for obvious reasons.

The 527's have very skinny bolt holes. You need to use lug nuts that can utilize a very thin wall socket, or internal spline. Otherwise you'll be struggling to fit a normal impact socket in there.

"Sick" is the first word I'm thinking. Nice job, looks clean! I didn't read all your posts, but are you getting an exhaust?

Thanks! I am going to be getting an exhaust, I'm trying to exercise some patience and let a few get out there before I make a firm decision. Really leaning towards the Perrin Catback since this car is my daily driver and highway drone would give me a headache.

Couple of new additions:


Along with a Perrin exhaust. I got the resonated version and I'm very pleased with the sound. It's a nice deep rumble that does not drone on the highway. I will be getting the front pipe once it's released so it will get a bit louder.

Really like this set up. Where did you purchase the matte bronze xxr 527s? I've only seen the gold xxr 527s for sale on xxr's website..

I don't live up here, only work. So i'm only around during business hours where she mostly sits in a parking lot.

Thought I'd post some new pictures, I took these this weekend.
