What are we looking at here? Brakes, wheels, tires, center caps, springs?

My bad. I assumed most people would question Brembos being on a BRZ more than wheels. Plus it was more for people that frequent this thread, same as myself.

Checked wear bars on my tyres a few days ago (just reached under and felt them with my fingers) and knew my rears were done. Climbed under the car today (first time the ground has been dry in days) to inspect and found my right rear is on the cords on the inside edge. Tried to hop on Tire Rack and order a new set, but their website wasn't working :\

Then I got bored and tried turning a BRZ into a hatchback:



Come on Subaru, you know you want to!

EEW.

I applaud your creativity, @Ganthrithor, and your digi-paint skillz, but no. Just no.

I could see this as the shell for a NHRA Funny Car doing the 1/4 mile at 300+mph.

Lol. It looks like an Impreza hatch that's been rolled.

Got rid of that damn gymkhana and stock mid pipe and just ended up getting a custom single can. I used me 08 Sti CB exhaust.most definitely a one off. Sounds super sexy with a deep growl pictures to follow with a sound clip.

Stretch the roofline a bit further back so the rear end is a bit more vertical like the C30. The rear side windows also need to open up some. I love the shooting brake style
