On another note, I was planning out parts I want to buy (day dreaming as usual) and I came across 5:Axis's Areo Lip kit, what do you guys think of it? Maybe a future add on, I also do quiet like the 5:Axis S7 19" rims in gunmetal/black but not sure if I want to do as big as 19" even though with the kit it gives it more of that exotic car look
My personal taste has the 5Axis kit as a little too harsh. Side skirts and rear spats I like, I've just never been partial to the front lip. Have you checked out the MV Designs kit? Quite similar but not as distinct.

That kit is a little aggressive for my personal taste and 19's might be a little big for a DD, but they do look great!

I love the rear and sides, the front lip from some angles looks good to me but the middle splitter actually sticks out a lot farther than I originally thought. I'll check out that kit! Also maybe there's a way to get the 5Axis sides&rear with the TRD front lip? But full painted and not with the extended fog light housings painted on.

That's sorta how I felt about the 19's too, would look awesome but would take away from performance and DD comfort. Maybe if it twin charge e85 it for that super charger whine and bov then id make enough power to not car about the 19" loses

Reporting in!

Was lurking around the forum, decided to finally sign up.
I am the proud owner of a SWP BRZ Sport-tech 6m. Loving every minute of it so far, it's definitely a fun car.

So.. yep. Hi.

Welcome! Good to see a few new members. There was only a handful of us here for the last couple years, but I believe we are finally seeing some growth
Of course I'm more estatic that we have another BRZ member, need to even things up as there are more FRS owners in here at the moment
Lot's of love for our FRS guys

btw what's your location ?

Welcome @Psnax !

Probably a silly question guys but is a almost metal like dripping/quiet tinking after a hour of highway and grid driving normal? Is that just the oil dripping into the pan?

Hey I don't have my complete stock exhaust to give you measurements, but I'm sure you can find the info you need in the forums or just get it up on the lift at Murrays and measure things up

Sounds normal, probably just the heat shield contracting when cooling

I've got one of those low profile 24" jacks so I'm taking off the muffler portion now to measure it up and possibly just run a single pipe out till I get it all welded up

Got my muffler portion done but its too late to get a single pipe welded up for now and I gotta run to part source and buy a flange tomorrow. Think its safe to run with the muffler just bolted off? There's a good 11" of open space before the exhaust gases would reach the bumper and it'll just be for a total of like 20 min of driving
