I had 225/40 Hankook V12 tires with the Enkei TS10s in 18x8. I sold the wheels because I needed money for the house. Worse mistake I made was going with 19" wheels. Never again!
I wouldn't mind going 17x9 with sticky tires.

On stock suspension right?

Took her to the dealership for a transmission leak. Turns out my transmission pan gasket has a leak, but they have to order it from another dealership so I have to wait till next week. That’s obviously at the bottom, but I noticed I have some sort of leak on top which is weird. Think they’ll have to pull it out to see what it is

Luckily, warranty covers everything, but still.

Will probably get the 30k service done at the same time. Brake fluid starting to look like syrup

Hard wired my Beltronics rx65 pro. I spent more time looking for my soft trim pry bar than I did working on the entire project. I found a 3m Radar mount on amazon for $12, hard wire kit was $18. I don’t have heated seats, but I did have heated seat fuses, so I plugged the add a fuse into that. Works like a charm.

I finally updated to the newer OFT v4.03 tune from an older v1.x tune from 2016. Everything feels more dialed in and launch control is fun

gpvg30 · 07-07-2019, 04:24 PM

Added new fender covers from the sti brz sport, changed badges to black lettering and added sti emblem, and added mud guards.

Got the OE STI lip kit.. similar to that of the tS. Absolutely love the new look.

xenarc · 07-20-2019, 02:39 AM

Got some Helix smoked side markers V2.
Clips are the same as the OEM and they fit very snug.
LED does not match the headlight DRLs 100% but its perfectly fine with me.

I like my BRZ in white but Dam...Red looks so seductive.

Picked up from the dealership for the 30,000 mile service and transmission pan gasket replacement. Got a lot of things changed. The car does not feel brand new by any means, but I did feel a difference in the brakes and transmission. So overdue that the advisor told me to just get spark plugs changed at 60,000 and nothing else lol

Now that maintenance is taken care, I can focus on some mods

Cracked the windshield--didn't even make it a full week.

Stray bouncing rock caught it at the very bottom and the ding morphed into a 10" split a few seconds later.

I knew I should have bought a Honda.

better the windshield than the area where the windshield meets the roof. had a nasty rust chip there i had to sand off with a pen and use touch up paint on. i hadnt seen rust like that on a newer car in CA before really.

LOL, funny because I wanted my car in white but they didn’t have one, so choice was red, black or grey, and since I always had red I just stuck to red again.
