Picked up my SSR GTX01s (17x9 +38) that I ordered over a month ago, put on a set of Nankang NS2Rs (245/40, 255 too thicc), installed Tanabe Revel coilovers, put on a set of clear Valenti tail lights. Also got my Tomei UEL headers but that's on hold for a later time.



First impressions coming from stock: Steering is going to take some getting used to because now it feels super responsive in the corners, coilovers behave almost too well on city streets and feel about 90% similar to stock despite having a spring rate of 8K front and back, it's comforting to have decent tread on the rear tires again.

Looks great. Got anymore pictures?

Not on the newer BRZ's. They snap in with a hundred plastic tabs.

I use base coat/clear coat. You clean everything good and remove all wax from the area. get an artist brush and carefully touch up where the dings are. From there use 400 grit sand paper and sand and touch up until the chips are filled and everything is smooth. Then use a artist air brush to spay the clear over where you sanded. After the clear has cured you polish it back out and reapply wax.

Thank you!



Just several more. Had to chase daylight by the time I got back home.


edit: Just realized that one of my license plate lights are out. I swear all the old bulbs on this thing are slowly blowing out one by one.

Sick looks simple and clean. Nothing like a good 10 spoke wheel. What made you go with the Revel coils? Love the stickers too lol

Finally decided to throw some quick, easy mods on to change the car up. Went for headers, over pipe, cutback, rear lower control arms, camber bolts front and back, coilovers, ecutek tune, rays wheels, front lip, and rear diffuser.

Indeed. I was pretty set on the gramlights 57dr for a while and before that gunmetal RPF1's but then I realized how common they are lol. When I was putting the tires on the guy at the shop was saying that most of the wheels they work with were usually one or the other


Went with the Revels because I got a good deal for them, $925 shipped brand new and it even comes with endlinks. Friend also runs them on his civic si and has good things to say about the coilovers. Was thinking of the Tein Flex A too but the deal on the Tanabe was just really good.

Honestly the Flex A's are a better deal. They perform well for their price and have hydraulic bump stops which is very nice on a car that has limited travel like ours. Especially when lowered.
