Filled the car with E85(well, what I believe was actually about E70) for the first time. With the 2 gallons in the car already my ethanol gauge is showing about 63%.

Today I am swapping out my 7k springs for 10K's. Resetting ride height, and doing a quick string alignment on the car before taking it into the shop for a proper alignment.


Edit: Also loving the Nameless "ultra quiet" track pipe. Again, probably too loud to DD, but perfect for weekend toy and track days.

Edit: Was going to hold off till next week but last night ended up also replacing all 4 hubs, putting in my regreased CV's. Replaced rear calipers, replaced brake lines on both ends.

WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BRZ TODAY?

Installed blend mount for the 360c.
After using the suction cup for 2 years, it finally gave up and I installed the blend mount. Now there are 2, one for the dash cam one for the radar. I like the oem look.

Just watched this whole series (so far). This guys is awesome! He is a complete engine novice and is filming his journey as he rebuilds his motor with an IAG Stage 2 block. Motivation for sure!

Is he a member here?

Bang & Lazar strut tower covers

After see another member installing his Bang & Lazar strut tower covers I contacted them and they made a set for me with no special markings so I could have more of a OEM look. I liked how they will stop the buildup of dirt and dust as I like to keep my engine bay as clean as possible in my 2014 BRZ.

First clay bar.

Picture below is after clay bay (first time I tried), then I applied hybrid ceramic coating (will wait until tomorrow to take pics, as it is still on drying process)

First in a series of upcoming cosmetic "mods". This is as much of a mod as a keychain but for what it cost it counts.

Realigned my car last night. I am not very good at it so it takes me a small eternity to get done A little more prep and should be ready to rock for my first track day of the year.
