I wouldn't say its a problem but just pointing out the TRD BBK costs quite a lot - where that wad of cash can be spent of many other mods etc

What do big brakes have to do with being a drift king, Pplater??
There isn't alot of point in fitting the BBK if you aren't going to track the car though, because by all reports the stock brakes are really good. Why spend $10k+ on something that you won't get full use out of?
I had another idea about big brakes anyway. MUCH cheaper

Oh an I LOVE the weathershields. I think they look great. I loved weathershields on AE86's and S13 silvias too

I actually laughed at this, its so true.

I have them on my Supra, the ash just always floats in the right direction, never comes back in the car.

On rainy days its even better, because you can smoke and not have a tsunami flowing through the window + it keeps the wind out.

People generally ask me if I smoke in the car, I tell them yes and there reaction is "wow it doesn't smell like smoke".

I love these rain guards!

02 STI brakes are direct bolt on too. Should be able to find them on YJP. They would be more than enough for a car this weight. The BBK is massive overkill for anything other than long stint track work.

You need the TRD rear lip kit to fit the exhaust. Keep that in mind. HKS probably offer the best bang for buck bolt on exhaust that distant require rear bar changes.
