And yes, this is one of the last ones in the US.

Also, I somehow miraculously fitted the box inside my car...

Just curious who told you it was one of the last ones. I got this when they first came out and was told I would have 1 of 2 in the USA. Then they imported like 15 more or something. Not to mention I think you can order it from Japanparts.com if someone wanted. It's tempting to switch to the Titanium Version of this exhaust now.

Took a photo of mine today after I got the TOMS installed! I'm a graphic artist, exhaust smoke was added in post. Haha.

Did they tell you it was 1 of 2 for the life of the product? Or that you were just 1 of 2 at the time in the US?

The sound on that one was perfect but I wanted to change up my setup because I couldn't pass on how much my friend was going to hook it up for (he supplies imported parts to many of the vendors on here).

I'm trying to get it as loud as my DT-S but I don't want it as overbearing as the EVO3 so I'm looking at a couple of the resonated FP's that's available on the market.

The OP/FP didn't make it that much louder, just more throatier I would say. That Boxer rumble is just more prominent. It is pretty loud though for the first few mins of a cold start. It rumbles the walls at my In-Laws ha-ha YEAH!

. Other than that it's just a nice deep tone when your cruising around. I'm gonna finish it off with some headers in a few months.

Which FP did you ended up with? I'm looking at some with resonators on it.

EDIT: Nvm, I just figured it out, lol

Finally parked her next to her new younger sister

You make me want to take another car loan out haha. I could totally afford one but I do not want car payments. Looks beautiful!

Did an oil change on her today and also changed the cabin filter to the FRAM unit. While I was doing the oil change installed my Fumoto quick valve, did the sound tube delete, and installed my Perrin intake tube.

B-R-Z · 08-23-2014, 08:30 PM

- Oil change
- Installed o2 spacer on after-cat o2 sensor to try to eliminate a CEL from installing Tsudo UEL header
- Re-installed underbody panels since I was lazy and didn't do it after installing my header a few weeks ago
- Wiped down interior with new Meguiars Ultimate Detailer which smells like vomit. I just bought it today and need to get something else.

Finished editing how to install the kartboy short throw. Link here:

Thanks.

So, as we all know, the engineers at Subaru designed the BRZ to fit a full set of alternate wheels and tyres in the back for track days. But did they also design it to fit a complete 250 Testa Rossa exhaust in case someone drops one during the TR rally you happen to be attending? We'll have to ask Tada-san at some point. In any case, it fits with about an inch to spare! Well done, Subaru!
