Mrxchris' Whiteout Build - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

mrxchris · 09-13-2015, 08:02 AM

I really wish I had started this when I got the car back in April 2014.
I bought the 2013 model used with 8,359 miles. However due to not having a real camera and some laziness I was never able to do so. Now that I have a decent camera, I'll start documenting any changes coming to the car.

For now, this is how she sits (as of 9/13/15):

Exterior
Beatsonic FDA9 Sharkfin Antenna
Racing Solutions Front Lip
TRD Rep Sideskirts
Five Axis Trunk Spoiler
Tint 35%/20%

Engine
Openflash UEL Header
Openflash Tablet (Stage 2, E85 tuned)
K&N Drop-In Air Filter
TRD Catback Exhaust

Suspension/Wheels
ST Coilovers
Whiteline Front Camber Bolts
SPC Rear Lower Control Arms
Enkei RPF1 18x9.5 +38, F1 Silver
Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2 245/35-18
Muteki SR48 Lug Nut Set and Locks

Lighting
Winjet Chrome Headlights (Painted)
Tom's USDM Red Taillights
JDM Clear Sidemarkers
DDM Tuning 5k/35w HID Kit
Switchback Turn Signals - Type AO
Full LED Conversion Interior/Exterior

My first car (2010 Honda Fit) got totaled by someone running a red light. I really liked the car, very practical, economical, roomy and fun to drive!

4/26/14
However, a replacement was needed and it took me awhile to find a used one that was clean while being a manual! I found one at Longo Toyota and went up to pick her up immediately (after some negotiation).
Here was how she was when I first got her at 8,359 on the odometer.

4/29/14
First mod was to replace the lighting inside and out. I installed DDM Tuning 5k/35w HID kit and LEDs on my license plates and interior lights.

4/30/14
Her first tank (with me :P)!

7/2/14
I felt that the stock catback sounded very weak, so I found a Q300 for sale locally and installed it.

7/10/14
I only spent a week with the Q300 as it wasn't dramatic enough for my liking. The sound was very subdued. I found what I was originally looking for, a TRD Catback. The sounded was perfect for my ears, nice and deep but not overly loud.

10/10/14
After a couple months of saving, I bought ST Coilovers from Evasive Motorsports locally. Installed them along with 20mm/25mm spacers to avoid a tucked wheel set up.

1/11/15

I bought the Racing Solutions front lip off a fellow member and got it repainted with a perfect paint match at a local paint shop. The same week, I picked a set up TRD Replica Sideskirts from a local member. The paint was in good condition already so I didn't need to repaint it. Here is me test fitting the combo.

That same day, I painted my Winjet Chrome headlights and installed both the headlights, sideskirts and lip all at once.

The end result:

mrxchris · 09-13-2015, 08:26 AM

3/17/15

Purchased and installed a set of Tom's USDM Red Taillights from a part out.

4/6/15
Picked up the Openflash Tablet and UEL combo from a local member. Installed and tuned!

The power gains were great. I tried to keep my expectations low but man the combo blew me away. The car felt like a totally different car and is now even more of a blast to drive. Can't replace that rumble....

mrxchris · 09-13-2015, 08:32 AM

7/27/15
Finally some wheel upgrades after wearing the stock tires out. I picked up a set of 18x9.5 +38 RPF1s at LSD Motorsports and 245/35-18 tires from discounttires.com and got them installed at a local shop.

mrxchris · 09-13-2015, 08:35 AM

I picked up a Nikon D7100 a couple weeks ago and my first shot was one of my car of course!

mrxchris · 09-13-2015, 08:37 AM

I was bored tonight so I went out to take a couple shots!

JTOFJPN · 09-14-2015, 02:58 AM

I like the look of this car... very simple but it works. nice job.

Cacophony · 09-14-2015, 03:14 AM

Simple. Clean. Stylish. Looks like perfection if you ask me, I want mine to look similar to your build. Well done OP!

Subie_Nubie · 09-14-2015, 11:11 AM

Very nice sir! I agree with the others, very clean and elegant. It's what I'm trying to go for with my SWP BRZ.

86Hiro · 09-14-2015, 12:28 PM

Gorgeous car!

Thank you for your kind words, simple and clean was the goal

I'm not really a fan of FRS because of the front bumper, but man yours looks TOO clean. 👍🏽
