I'll do a small writeup along the way.

Still have to fab something to fill the gaps around the HU but that's for another day.

How about this? https://www.crutchfield.com/p_142SU2...-Dash-Kit.html

I have a custom phone mount I made that means I'd have to hack that a little, but its an option. Half the fun is getting something unique out of the project.

Such a good head unit. We just put one in the '18 WRX. I really want to put one in the BRZ, but I keep reminding myself that by summer time it'll be retired to race-car-only duty and I don't need to waste the money.

Today: I drove it. Not nearly far enough, but it was great just the same.

Installed lowering springs in the driveway. Eibach's. Not a crazy drop, hardly notice a difference in ride quality.. overall I'm satisfied with them.

Today I was accelerating onto an onramp, got to third, started wondering if I should have charged my phone before leaving, magically transformed back into the mindset that I was still driving an auto, forgot to shift into fourth, and bounced off the rev limiter. Not my finest moment. My buddy was lol'ing.

Passed emissions test!

Fully expected to fail with the SC, Flex fuel kit plugged into the rear O2 sensor connector, catless header and big injectors.

My wife loves it (not really) when I forget I'm driving an automatic and end up stabbing the brakes with my left foot.

If I could have "paid off" the Kiosk where I did the test just to get a don't ask, don't tell PASS...I would have...as it turns out, didn't even need to!

Maybe I'll have to do that to mine again after all. Did you get the Helix replicas or did you order JDM from Japan?

I do like them more than the US ones. They're the real JDM and I ordered them from FT86SpeedFactory. Took a little more time to install than I thought, because I had to mess with the top clips a little so that they would click back in.
