WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BRZ TODAY?

[rt]

Technically didn't do it yet, but this just arrived from Japan. Probably the absolute worst value for an intake but it was too pretty to pass up.

Took the RCE Tarmac springs off and put the stock springs back on, and added Subaru crash bolts. Getting the car mildly set up for CS in autox. Also replaced the brake fluid with Motul RBF660. Motiv power bleeders ftw. Now getting an alignment today.

Tarmacs are for sale in the classifieds

I saw it and it looks wicked but why so expensive?

I don't think there's any reason other than brand, kind of like ARC stuff. There's nothing special about it..

They are yes. I contacted KB Customs on Facebook (he's also on Instagram and Youtube). He takes the OEM badges and completely customizes them. I chose to go with the pearl white to match the rest of the car. He'll also install LEDs behind the stars if you decide you'd like that as well. The emblems have held up very well so far, and you can hardly tell they're custom. KB Customs does great work. If I remember correctly, he's began painting the outer ring and has also started hydrodipping the background for different designs.

Ball park $250-300+ depending on what you want (he has more pricing tools on his FB page).

Wash, claybar, wax, full interior detail. Back to showroom quality!


Also threw on some mudguards... looks quite nice on DGM.

First day with the car. Yeah! Trying to keep it below 3500, but boy does this car rev easily.

Drove the wife and kids out for ice-cream.

I set the rev-limiter for 4200 during break-in. then your at 4500 tops on shifts.

Love the badges too!

Replaced the windscreen to get rid of a chip. Could have been repaired but the repair tends to be still visible in my experience.

Enjoy it, it's a great little thing. Oh, the Subaru engineers thought about the running in period by placing a torque at the 3500 mark so no danger of screwing up any of the other newly bedding items in the drivetrain.
