Nice! Take your time on install, it's really not that bad once you get your head around removal of the side marker

Also test your bulbs before pushing the new side marker back into place

Thanks for the tips. I've read horror stories of people installing these, then others have no trouble at all. I'll see how it goes tomorrow when I install them!

I'm not sure that I will be able to go out on the Friday now. I will be at Boxer Battles Saturday afternoon for a couple hours to check it out and plan to cruise Saturday night for sure. I have your number, I'll text you when the time gets closer to see if I can meet on Friday.

Anyone considering switching/trading up to the BRZ Sti when it drops?

I'm kind of pissed because i thought there was no talk of an STI when i ordered mine


****Opinions needed!!****

Looking for a new exhaust system, and I honestly am giving myself a headache! There are so many! Originally i wanted to go with Perrin, now im leaning more towards Accelerated Performance... (personally the perrin and greddy sound way too much like a buzzy/tunny noise that i want to get away from)
Check this video out : [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLA7qx159oE"]Scion FRS Smoking Tires and Drifting - YouTube[/ame]

Cat back? Res or non res? Headerback too loud?

Also what would you recommend for an antenna?
http://www.perrinperformance.com/brz...shorty-antenna maybe...
Kind of want the antenna to be as smooth as possible, i personally think the shark fin is too big...

Just thinking out loud mostly! Any ideas/opinions would be cool!

I will be in 2015, no point for 2014 as there is zero power increase. Wait until 2015 if you want more power, plus you can enjoy your BRZ for another couple years with no regrets

If you don't currently own an FR-S or BRZ, I would say go for it!


Your right on the exhaust options, lot's too choose from. Just find one you like the sound of and is decent quality.

I went with the AFe catback just because of how it sounded, it wasn't a cosmetic decision for me

I also have the Beat Sonic Shark Fin antenna, looks and works great! I previously had the Perrin Shorty antenna which was also very nice!
