Installed my Lathe Werks shift knob and STI start button.
Changed my cabin air filter, though my 4 year old - 29k miles air filter looks essentially new.

That looks like the FT86SF/FTSPEED one. You can get it in Alcantara/CF or perforated leather/CF.

86Worx.com has some options for the 17+ models as well.

I like the looks of this one in all leather.

Yes, BA9092 is correct, it's the alcantara/carbon fiber wheel from FTSpeed for 2017+. If you want one, you may want to hurry as they only have 3 left in stock and I was told when I purchased mine they usually do a shipment every 6 months..

soundman98 · 06-06-2020, 09:04 PM

took the car for a few errands this morning. after i finished errands, just wanted to keep driving. so i ended up "getting a pair of work gloves" 2 hours away...

Normally not into CF, however that looks NICE !!!

A couple weeks in I finally got rid of my amber sidemarker for clear sti ones.

Got rid of my sound tube nonsense with a Perrin airbox to throttle body hose. Butt dyno approves.

Chuckls · 06-07-2020, 10:09 PM

Took the car on a trip to break in the clutch more due to Southbend saying it's "Progressive break in"

Aka, after 500 miles, it still wasn't holding the tq from e35+, so I beat the ever living shit out of it until it did around 1600miles.

norcalpb · 06-08-2020, 12:42 AM

Over the weekend I bought new front pads, new tires, and new axle nuts.

Threw on some numbers and RE-71r's and did some CS autocrossing for the first time in it. Both days were full wet in the morning and dry in the afternoon. Great opportunities to feel out and learn the car in all conditions.

Easy to install the steering wheel? Now you got me thinking doing my brz ts 2020 😅 but I love my stock ones also 🥴

Is it a smaller wheel diameter?

Oxyg3n · 06-08-2020, 03:42 PM

@marky Stock steering wheel is definitely pretty nice. Install is pretty straight forward, only hard part was just that it does take some force to pull the stock wheel off. After I installed the wheel, I couldn't get it to be centered, so I had to pay additional for an alignment. As far as size, it's not necessarily smaller, maybe the exact same size as oem.
