These cars are frisky period! A certain amount of care and respect is required...
I've tried my traction control (not sport mode - all on!) on a wet road and I was able to see 45 degrees of slide before they cut in...Drive safe peeps!

I've only done some light, subtle mods, mostly from an appearance view. The first thing I did was delete the growl tube that comes back into the cabin. I added the BRZ trunk lid liner, CNC aluminum plaque in the console indent, full length arm rest and I put the 2" shortie radio antenna on. (Regarding the antenna, I haven't noticed any change in the reception because of the change.) I had considered Katzkins but I find I'm not unhappy with the interior the way it is. If I can find an acceptable tail light cover in all red I will consider that. Other than that I'm happy with it the way it is.

Did I have fun driving to work this morning. Oh yes I am now officially in love with this car. What ever combination of the intake pipe or filter, it makes a huge difference.
Gone is that sluggish feel from 2000rpm up to 5000rpm, she pulls from start to finish and smooth as you push that pedal down. The sound is unbelievable, like a roar. When you hit the throttle gives a quick suck sound and off she goes. What ever the dyno results show, I really could not be bothered just the feel and response is worth every cent.... Now to hunt for that GTI......

I opted for the STD to mod my 86 my style, so set myself a budget of R35k, being the difference of the STD to High spec. So been 6 months finding the right parts at the best price.
Been really fortunate with family in the States and being in the logistics game, shipping has been a huge saving in sticking within the budget. Sound has been the most costly build. But I wanted a design with top quality, so I suppose you pay for it. Once I have the lip kit fitted, will share pics, nice to show others what can be done and where the various items can be purchased through reliable suppliers. I also have some spares which I brought in extra, which I will sell off soon. Brayson side skirts HT auto rear spats LED DRL fog globes LED high intensity reverse globes GT 86 rear badge Car mats |
