What did you do to your 2nd gen BRZ today?

Do you have to use your other hand to engage the reverse lockout?

Nope I can still do reverse lockout with 1 hand. I know it's semi ghetto looking but I absolutely adore how that knob feels in my hand. Did some driving around today with it and absolutely love it. It may even rival my future UEL headers as my favorite mod.

I got a cheap rubber grommet for now, I will find something nicer eventually to make that gap look cleaner.

If you are happy with it then good job! Enjoy the drive buddy.

FWIW the grommet does substantially improve the look, not perfect yet but I can see where you are going with that.

Installed the MXP Comp RS. My car is still under 1000 miles, so I can't really rev it out. So far, I really like it. A little drone off throttle at 3000. Overall, it will improve my connection to the car; my downshifts are buttery now.

I feel the same with the drone, I don't know if I'm getting old or I don't like it lol

Same. I was really struggling with consistently heel toeing the car when I first got it. Put both a Borla exhaust and a Cusco gas pedal extension and those together have made it immensely better. Like from 5/10 to 8.5/10. Still not as good as say a Porsche or S2000 due to the throttle response, but better than basically anything else I’ve driven in recent memory.

If I had to pick one of those mods for hard driving, I would still take the pedal extension, though.

Cusco pedal extension is definitely a must have (imo). Ordered one for my incoming car already and had it on my old cars too. One of the cheapest and best upgrades for heal/toe consistency!

Im having a hell of a time trying to ball/toe so I will definitely need the gas pedal extended to the left a bit more for consist rev matching. That pedal looks like my best option.

Yep. For me it’s not so much an issue that I can’t do it at all, but that the throttle pedal position is just far enough it’s not a quick fluid motion that is hard to mess up. Often I missed the pedal by a bit and/or my foot positioning makes it awkward to modulate the brakes and gas as I need to.

Had some fun dancing the car on ice/snow yesterday.
There was another white BRZ at the event. Anyone here?

Installed my new Enkei Raijin wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires. Getting ready to take it for a ride in a few minutes, and am hoping that the TPMS light doesn't come on.

Very much want to see how those Raijins look. Post pics when you can.

Finally removed the clutch spring. Been hesitating since my '16 brz. Much easier to modulate with a bit of pressure. Have the mtec spring on order, but debating whether I should even put it in. I've always been a fan of heavier clutches.

TPMS light came on after 15 miles of driving.

I am going to post a thread tomorrow that I hope does not get me banned. It's about how I think Subaru is going at this with the TPMS sensors and the need to reprogram them with new wheels like BMW has with buying a battery from them, and having to reprogram them and register it to the car.

Another grasp for money by Subaru and BMW.

My wife's Audi wanted a dealer visit for a new battery. I decided to do it myself. There were several posts stating to key in a code that was one digit off from the old battery's code, but then I learned if you switch out the battery quickly it will not ask for the code. This worked for me and the car is doing great months later.
