What did you do to your 2nd gen BRZ today? - Page 90 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Does it only look like this when parked? What's it look like when driving? I'm trying to imagine how the rear wheel moves while the suspension articulates.
I know nothing about the stance scene but to my eye more even camber front and rear would look better.

Does anyone know if the cusco tow hook is legit? Looking for something for track days.

No idea, but you do NOT want one made from aluminum. I think the last one we put on a car was made by Beatrush and it was used a LOT without issue.

Well aware, which is why I asked. I can't seem to find a listing that mentions its construction. Though I figured the fact that its Cusco (and the $100+ price) should mean its pretty legit.
I'll check out Beatrush though

The Cusco tow hooks are made out of steel so I’d feel 100% safe being towed with it. Maybe 50% heavier than the oem tow hook.

Yup, I emailed subimods and they confirmed its made from steel.

I hit a big pothole on GA 400 today going to work. Does anybody have stock BRZ Limited wheels for sale?

BioRebel · 02-01-2023, 10:08 AM

Anyone got recommendations on OEM sized rotors for street/track/autoX? I'm eyeing the DBA club spec 4000's right now, and I'm a fan of the stoptech cryo treated rotors as well from my last car. Nothing drilled, I've had issues with drilled rotors warping way too easily in the past.

If it's still holding air I wouldn't worry about it. That very outer lip isn't the actual bead that seals the tire to the wheel.

mr.whiskers · 02-06-2023, 01:43 PM

Shouldn't you be able to fix that rim? I'd ask a tire shop

MyHybridBurnsGasAndTires · 02-06-2023, 04:41 PM

definitely looks repairable

Awhnii · 02-06-2023, 08:08 PM

Installed mirror caps and fenders! Black TRD Duckbill to match also

Thanks, guys! It does still hold air but it bugs me, so I found a local rim repair shop. They quoted me $150 to pick it up and bring it back fixed. I am having them pick it up Tuesday, and I should have it back Wednesday.

Put on a 15mm first gen rear sway bar with OEM 14mm bushings(just like stock). Still raining here so no real testing for a few days.
