HAPPY THANKSGIVING ALL!

Here is just a photo update of my rear window spoiler. I will take a photoshoot of the car this month so I'll be updating soon. But for now I've just been enjoying the car with my Tein Street Flex Coilovers, Cusco LCA, and the Michelin PSS are great!

Currently been messing with the dampening and getting a good feel. Anyone have any good settings on how much stiffer the front vs the rear should be? I know this is hard to tell since everyone has different wheels and rubber. But just some thoughts or advice on this. I do some autoX occasionally and mostly canyon/street driving.

You have some great taste! Super clean build. Every time I see a build in WRB it makes me second guess me choosing SWP. lol

All

I've been so busy and not as active on this forum as I want to be. I am just swamped. But i've been doing little things here and there for the car. All thanks with some help from @evasivemotorsports as well.

1. installed Perrin Brake Master Cylinder Brace
2. Installed Perrin 2.5" nonresonated catback exhaust
3. installed flossy shift knob

Next I will be installing Perrin sway bars, front/rear endlinks, new brake pads, SS brake lines.

Ill try to post more soon, maybe with an actual photoshoot.

The staggered setup is very popular. Its just up to the driver what kind of feel they want. This will reduce oversteer. I went with a square setup because I valued being able to rotate my wheels between the front and the rear (since I have camber and uneven tire wear) and I also chose this for aesthetics. I like the deep concavity that the 9.5" wheels give all around.

Is that a gloss black rear window spoiler? What brand is it? I found your thread researching gloss vinyl wrap and am definitely sold. Will be doing my WRB brz soon. Great build!

This is a BeatSonic rear spoiler. I got the roof wrapped with the same wrap for the spoiler.

Car looks sweet man. Wheels were a good choice for the direction you are going. What is the offset on those bad boys?

I like the lip set, seems to be just a little different from everyone else. Good stuff

Thanks! Yeah the wheels are 18x9.5 offset +40. I have 255/40 tires. And yeah I like the lip I went with. Seems like it's not the most popular on these threads, but it works to set mine apart I guess.

Well I do have Cusco LCA's and tein coilovers. The camber is adjusted slightly negative. Otherwise, yes, there would be more poke, but right now they tuck quite nicely.
