WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BRZ TODAY? - Page 908 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hey guys,

Installed a few goodies to my brz recently(within last 2 weeks, track pipe yesterday). Started with a Blitz drop in filter and OFT. Quickly got bored of the stock shift knob so I got myself a Titanium sphere from WC Lathewerks

Lastly I just installed a Nameless Performance track pipe. No pics of oft or blitz filter. Got a video of the launch control tho.

Put on my Perrin 2.5" resonated catback. Sounds amazing, in my opinion! I've got a JDL UEL (catless), JDL overpipe, JDL ultra quiet front pipe (catted & resonated), and now the Perrin CBE.

Sounds great! Can't even tell it's running at idle. Was that the stock rev limiter it was bouncing on or was that a launch control limiter?

Thanks! That's the OFT limiter, I lowered it an extra 1000 rpm because it would just spin... Stock tires FTL

and OMG they are too damn bright

I love it though.

Glad to see clear markers get a second life lol! Looks great!

Motul diff and tranny fluid, oil change, inspected brakes (about 80% not bad for 66k), fixed an exhaust rattle (stupid dealer mis-threaded a hanger bolt and i had to break it off/redrill), swapped out tires, bled brakes, and realized i need a snap on tool that makes spark plug changes much easier (doing that later this month now)...

Finally ditched the stock tires an put on some Bridgestone RE-71Rs (stock size 215/45-17). Needless to say, HUGE difference - better in every way, with the exception of road noise, which I don't care about. The grip is high enough that near/at the limits it slightly overpowers the stock suspension; it feels a little sloppy but the extra grip is definitely welcome. No doubt everything could stand to be more stiff, especially damping. But not a big deal - the extra grip is great. I'll go down the rabbit hole of suspension mods eventually.

Consider using some black vinyl wrap to cover just the light.
It dims it slightly, and I've found blacked out, the markers look pretty mean.
