More camber is easy. I'm sure you could run a good -3 to -4 degrees plus on the rear with these without needing adjustable toe links. Maybe bushings, but that's it. That could change though depending on your height, seeing how the car will naturally pick up more negative camber (which gives more toe in on the rear for this car) as you lower it.

Hope that answers your questions. If not, just let me know
lol helps, as far is stupid camber? 10?

Stance LCAs alone won't be enough. Racer X rear uppers will help make that possible.

Here she sits. Hibernation. Got a new place and a bigger garage and all that cool stuff.

Car has been driven all of 50 miles since I left in January.


Parts are stacking up. I'm about to be getting some more stuff here soon too.

Nameless Headers
Some type of intake
OFT tune
MAX risers installed
Some sort of exhaust
Tie rods and steering knckles
A few other things as well.
SPL suspension components

Aero, risers, steering wheel spacer, and a few other bits are sitting at the house now.

Still undecided on what to do about wheels. I'm starting to love the RPFs again. Just need to go down to a 40 sidewall up front instead of the 45 I have now. Might just pick up some spare Enkei's to thrash.

Undecided on the Todoroki fenders too. Might actually end up selling them but not sure yet. :/ still waiting for them to show up anyways.

Sick. If you're still thinking about which intake to get wait a couple months for the Mishimoto version to come out. I lent them my BRZ to help develop it and they were really happy with the performance gains. I'll shoot you some pics when I get mine.

Word. I was actually just going to get a Perrin filter or something. I can get it free after purchasing the OFT anyways. Proven like 5whp on the dyno too. Really good value.

As far as exhaust goes, I'm staying single exit. I don't like dual. Never been a fan on sports coupes. It just comes down to whether or not my car sounds good or like poop after the header gets put on.

It will be a Nameless Header, stock OP/DP, resonater and muffler delete 2.5" exhaust to a 4" tip. I'm fine with a little rasp but I don't want the car sounding like I popped vtec with a universal fart can.

I'm going to run mine unpainted for a little bit. Just trying to get a bit of free time to put them on.

Dude I want the Todoroki's so bad...but the wheels I have don't permit (totally sunk if I ordered) it and my wife might literally kill me if I get a new set of wheels. I came close to getting some TE37RTs but moving back to CA (and San Diego) is draining the bank.

I went with a PBM and Battle Version toe arm setup. I heard the SPLs are pretty awesome, though. Any thoughts?

-D.

My friend will be painting them for me. He does excellent work and I know they'll come out awesome. I'm still out of country right now so when I come back, they'll already be painted and installed.

I was going to get some Mag Blue TE37SLs for the car and then though about some Work Meisters. Looking into something different now.

I'm running Stance LCAs and got SPL toe links to go with them. I didn't know Battle Version had arms out. PBM and Battle Version make great products though. You won't be disappointed

So you ARE gonna run the fenders? Are you going to get a more aggressive offset in the front?

TE37's (in all versions) have tempted me in the past year. You know what always gets me in the end? This:

"Dude with that TE money I could by more than one thing..."

So I spend it elsewhere. Mag blue on this mica black paint would look awesome, though. I still want Matte Blue XD9s even though they weigh more.

Yeah I'm going to keep them. I was really set on just selling them for a while and using the money for something else but I love the fenders and thy took forever to get. I don't want to have to buy them again down the road. So I'm just sticking with them.

The wheels I get will be a little more aggressive but not by much. Special order sizes. 17x9/18x9.5 staggered setup for the street. @JordanWho- they're bronze too haha. I'll end up putting spacers up front to meet with the fenders. I have tie rods now too so the spacers will help keep me from rubbing at full lock too.

The RPF1s I have now will just become drift spares.

I don't know what kind of front camber setup you want to achieve, but a 17x9.5 +12 and 18x9.5 +22 TE setup should be pretty perfect. (unless you want to run a ton of tire.)

That's what I wanna do with bronze TE's eventually..

I'll be running -3 to -4 camber up front. The most I'll run in the rear is -1.5. I don't like lots of rear camber on my cars. Not enough contact patch. Makes it feel skittish for me. Sizes are 17x9/18x9.5. 215/40 up front and 225/40 rear.
