Sounds stock.. What is it?

DocWalt · 11-24-2014, 09:14 PM

Stock cutback with JDL header. Has a nice rumble but isn't loud. I wanted the performance without the obnoxious loudness. My GTI is my loud car lol

They seem to last a lot longer on the BRZ than they did on my Mazdaspeed6.
But AWD donuts in a pig of a sedan will do that.

If you drive carefully I'd guess you can get at least 4 seasons out of them.

I'm considering the GrimmSpeed Master Cylinder brace and strut tower bar. Thoughts?

DocWalt · 11-24-2014, 10:00 PM

master cylinder brace is awesome.

Installed some parts recently. Nothing crazy or big, but some functional items I guess...

Some MTEC Shifter Springs, Motul Gear 300, a Raceseng Ashiko Knob and reverse lockout, and some Hella Supertones.

Shifting is definitely much nicer and smoother compared to stock. Really nice feel to the knob. The horns are noticeably louder compared to the stock puny horns. More bass to it.

Also just received my EmdomUSA GT86 seat belt shoulder pads. Quality is on point and comfort is awesome. No more seat belt slicing up my neck lol

And I snapped a quickie as I hit the 11k mile mark

. But I love driving this thing.

I love the springs man! Paired with the tranny bushing, STS, shifter bush and weighted shift knob, shits on point! Best $33 I spent.

Same here! At first I was iffy on spending $30 on some tiny ass springs, but with the noticeable difference these things make, it was well worth it. I still have to get the short shifter, tranny bushing, and shifter bushing to complete it. I'm just lazy right now to install the shifter lol

Hahahha same here. I had my stuff sitting for a good month or so before I finally got around to doing it.

I went with the perrin. It looks a bit more robust.

Had much sadness, as I stared at the large paint chip down to bare metal in my c pillar and an accompanying deep scratch.
