from where?

Over Memorial Day weekend I added a few more tidbits to the interior. Also have the FT86SF/Velox Motorsports non aggressive rear diffuser coming in any day now.

IRP Black/Red reverse button short shifter

STI Door Sill Plates

STI Leather holster

Trunk strap that some of the guys here have been getting off Amazon lately.

OEM Aero Underpanels

Very nice IRP shifter!!
Do you have any vibration or noises from the shifter that many users have?

Picked it up from the body shop (again) and it looks like new (again). I got to drive a 370-hp Charger while my baby was laid-up, and I have to say I was I impressed. But, too big, too heavy, even though the 8-speed AT was fabulous, and the handling was surprisingly good.

I hope I can avoid this experience (again).

Went to OEM and Sandy is reflashing my system.

Those guys are awesome! They personalized the sound profile!

not really what I did, but what my neighbor did just now:

mega sad face

scraped the paint off, of course, so that means i don't get to drive her for who knows how long

did i say mega sad face yet?
time for beer

edit: another pic

it could be worse, but it still sucks

Unfortunately, yes. Every noise is different, and it either wants to be loud or subtle. Was extremely annoying on the first drive, but it's whatever now.

Plus, it just gives me a reason to drive faster/rev higher so that the exhaust notes drowns it out

Got rear ended does that count as "doing something to my BRZ"

Only have 600 miles on it

Not today but two days ago, finally got to drive my car with the Michelin Pilot Super Sports (215s) I bought over 3 weeks ago. I was back home again and the roads were finally washed salt free after the winter.
I had read everything I could on here about these tires and snagged the last set GCR had in their warehouse. What an improvement over stock. The steering feel, ride quality, road noise, all better. Before I bought, I was considering running the stock tires again, glad I didn't. Excellent site, great info., good results.

Thank you. It's still getting retaken mainly because the sky wasn't clearing as much as I wanted it to (it had just finished raining) along with some other minor tweaks. But again, thank you!

Edit: Now that I look at it again and I'm liking it more.

Amazing transformation for the car, but for me it's the wet weather capabilities that really blow me away. Car is solid and confidence inspiring
