Haha, MGS 2 was the first I played in the series too! Been hooked ever since. As far as mods, I'm probably gonna get the Raceseng reverse lockout and aftermarket tail lights first, then eventually coilovers. Further down the line I'd like to prep it for FI, but that's not until waaaaayyy later. What have you done with yours?

Enkei Raijin wheels
Carbon Fiber Seibon OEM spoiler
Michelin Pro Super Sport Tires
Bayson R Front lip and rear diffuser
LED dome lights, license lights, and trunk light
Valenti Smoked Tail Lights
Black Hyperblue badges
Works Exhale AB Exhaust and Midpipe
Vinyl Wrapped roof and hood

So i'm actually going to pickup some of the Valenti Sequential lights soon so if you are looking for some cool taillights i can hook you up with mine. SUPER easy install. Would let you have them for super cheap too since you a forum buddy.

Hi, my name's Doug, crowd shouting "hi Doug"

I'm addicted to small sporty cars, the last 19 years;
90 Mustang Turbo
89 Mustang Turbo
93 Mustang turbo
95 Miata,the first time I drove it, I wished I discovered them before Fox bodies
94 Miata
87 RX7 Turbo II 400 RWHP (Too much)
88 RX7 turbo II Stock
86 RX7 Turbo II
86 RX7 sport swapped to turbo hybid turbo 225 RWHP (perfect)
94 Miata Rotrex SC, 145 RWHP (meh)
99 Miata silver Rorex SC, 170 RWHP
99 Miata green Rotex SC 220 RWHP, love this set-up, still have it
05 RX8 stock 175RWHP, great GT type, long trip car, not so much for the city
04 RX8 modded 275 RWHP, totaled in a parking lot by a truck driver

2013 BRZ Limited, Rev Works header, ECUTek tune, too loud nameless performance AB

The BRZ\FRS are the only car I have driven that felt as close to a Miata as you can get with a real hardtop, which is why I now own one

Dude, that's super nice of you! I actually want to get the red sequentials over the smoked ones, though. 'Preciate it anyways!

I'm just shy of 54, so you're not alone. Although we are definitely the minority!

48 years of old, guitar teacher by profession. F1 fan. Haven't bought one yet, but close. Grew up driving RWD cars, 318 Dodge Dart, SS396 Chevelle, etc. Coming from a 2000 Celica with 200,000 miles on it - the best car I've owned. Trouble free and fun. When the FR-S came out it ticked all of the boxes for "the next car".

So I'm lurking around here to facilitate that...

Hey There - I've been lurking this forum for the last few months since I bought my BRZ. I bought 14' with about 8800 on the clock. I'm in my 40's so I've owned about all makes of vehicles. I've almost always owned German cars (VW, BMW E36, E46, E92 and a 77' 911 for 12 years) and I must say the BRZ is the most fun to drive. I've already started some modding and much more to come. Pic is from a few minutes ago and yes of course its raining in Seattle.


Crap cant figure out how to insert pic.
