Month-long ownership updates
Got my 18 BRZ about a month ago, and it wasnt long until I started throwing money at the car like a horny 18 year old soldier, at the strip club, straight out from basic.
Last week after a long wait on parts I ordered, I got a K&N drop filter, Perrin Inlet Hose, Perrin Rear Shifter Bushing (Amazing), Changed LSD/Trans fluids with Motul, Invidia Q300 catback with a HKS double Resonated Frontpipe, and finally got my OFT Stage One tune. I decided that I can't know that I'm broke if I don't look into my bank account. Do I regret it? Absolutely not. I'm in love with this car. |

I added two cylinders. What kind of power gains can I expect?

Installed a fresh set of friction rings on the front. Got 3 years and a bunch of track days out of my stoptech 328x28 setup. Also installed new gopro mount, that mounts to the bar of the headrest. Seems pretty sturdy, hopefully the new angle works out better then mounting to the back window.

A friend of mine spent several hours across the past three days doing a full detail, paint correction, and a couple layers of ceramic on the car. I figured after a little more than 3 years of ownership, the car was due for a more thorough cleaning than I'm capable of. Especially important since it's a 24/7 outdoors, daily car so it gets shat on and whatnot every day regardless of how recently I've cleaned it/wiped it down.
I've got a couple different external parts going on tomorrow, which I'll share photos of later, but I took a few photos this evening while the car is still pristine: ![]() ![]() ![]()

Took it out of the garage today for the first time since the first week of April. Had been slowly putting the car back to stock since then during the whole Stay at Home Order crap, even though my job still had me working lol.
Top pic was what it looked like before April. Bottom pic was taken today right after I picked it up from the alignment shop to get it closer to being put up for sale. Was fun while it lasted! ![]()
