WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BRZ TODAY? - Page 1000 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Drove all through downtown Chicago and to the northside on summer tires...re-71rs! Car was sliding with no visible snow on the ground (visible in certain areas). Had winters on before this. I was so scared the whole time...drove like a grandpa of course, but it would still slide occasionally. Leaving the highway on the ramp was the worst, luckily the car behind me slowed down and let me go down like a turtle after seeing me sliding while merging and doing nothing on the way down

What suspension are you using? Are those Ohlins?

Rear seat armrest installed in ten minutes. Unfortunatelly it's made of fake leather. I have also tried to install AlwaysOn module but without success. It did not work

Where did you get the arm rest? That looks great, I'm itching to pick up the oem center arm rest and I may do this one as well.

I have bought it from a guy who sells used car parts online. I think it was taken from a crashed car. Paid about 40$. Here is one more:

Didn't do it today but at the beginning of last week. Finally put some new shoes on and ooh what a difference. Conti Extreme Contact DWS XL, stock size. Smoother, quieter, better directional stability over varying pavement shapes and types at highway speeds, loads more grip while cornering and phenomenal wet performance. I already have over 1k miles in all sorts of weather from well below freezing pavement with patches of snow to 80 degrees to torrential downpouring rain and the car is supremely confidence inspiring through all of it. Money well spent...

finally glued the brake boot cover to finish up my JPM Coachworks interior. Love the look. Only disappointment is in the knee pad. It was advertised and reviewed to be plusher than the stock OEM padded knee pad. Visually it is thicker, but the material inside is soft so when your knee makes contact, it sinks right in and you can feel the hard backing underneath. THe stock OEM padded knee pad gives a firmer resistance without being hard so it feels better IMO.

Took a couple of photos of my red badge overlays this morning.

That's clean, I like the red overlays!

Started a sub install, no idea what the hell I'm doing. Never added audio anything to a car before.

Interior LEDs and dashcam install. Having the power outlet in the glovebox made life so easy.
