Long time lurker first time poster.

Bought it, drove it, fell in love.


Shout out to @ATL BRZ for making the colour selection so easy. The "Melanie" picture on the roof top is magic.

Drove 2 hours to meet @WiebTech Performance (A.K.A. Neal the Deal) in the North Bay to get all these lovely parts thrown on!
  • Greddy CS GTS Ver.2 Catback
  • Nameless Overpipe/Downpipe - MT
  • Perrin Polyurethane Exhaust Hangers
  • Perrin Transmission Support Mount
  • Perrin Rear Shifter Bushing
  • Whiteline Positive Traction Kit
  • Whiteline Support Outrigger Insert
Then on the way back got stuck in traffic for about 40 mins, but enjoyed every minute of it with the new exhaust!!!

Thanks again Neal!

I like the sound. I could handle more I think! You notice any torque loss in the low gears with that 3"? Seems like rowing gears is "tamer" with the larger exhaust.
I am not sure if I feel any torque loss, because it never seemed to be there in the first place? lols Anyways, the car does not seem to have the immediate pick up that I am/were used to having from my previous rides; however, I am still holding a great deal of hope for this BRZ to pull through. I will soon be receiving my FT86 catted UEL headers along with an OFT stage 2 tune, which in conjunction, will help this un Godly torque loss disappear...

Thanks. No center caps on the horizon. The Gramlights caps are fugly in my opinion. Rather spend $130 elsewhere.

Noticed the LEDs I got with my clear sidemarkers were starting to flicker, so chucked them in the garbage and stuck in some nice high quality LEDs from superbrightleds, and since I had the sidemarkers off again went ahead and added a fine layer of sealant just to ensure they don't get condensation. Then I put in my trunk led strip to light up the trunk a little more evenly.

Yeah, I tried that a couple times, but then I found out (and this is one of those 5 LED SMD bulbs) that it was 3 of the LEDs that were flickering on and off.
