Do you have a black rear spoiler? Saw a SWP BRZ on 101W past Cave Creek the other day with a black spoiler.

Today's daily dose of Cool: http://geekologie.com/2008/10/man-bu...ni-countac.php


OOooonnn a side note, Emme is back up and running. A week of cleaning, purging fluids, and re-stringing up the alignment. She's now back on stock alignment and chirps tires around just about every turn, so I gotta relearn that. Good news means I should make it wednesday. It will be looked over by the currently active mechanic who was helping me and letting me use his shop.

For the BR-Z and FR-S drivers who helped me out over by ASU, if you're on here Thanks. I never met you before and I am just hoping you're here.

Currently we only produce two parts for FT-86 SpeedFactory but that is quickly growing and we are looking at bringing to market a few more components. Anyway, here is the thread that details the splitter and race upgrade kit. The splitter decreases lift by 43 pounds at 100 MPH, and 60 pounds for the race splitter upgrade. This is a decrease in lift force of 260% and 363% respectively!




This is Carl's DWL set up. Is this a recreation of the actual Driveway Labs or the actual DWL splitter and diffuser?

For those who don't know, DWL is a solid design with easy mounting. I've been meaning to get back in touch with Carl who was actually providing me some pretty cool information with his aero guy regarding his trials and failures along the learning process.

We supplied Carl two prototype splitters. We came up with this design and market it under FT-86 SpeedFactory's name. Carl asked us to design something slightly different for him, and we provided two prototype splitters of the same material and similar mounting as the FT-86 SpeedFactory.

We (my partner and I) are the "aero guys" that Carl was referring to .

I am absolutely not trying to take away credit. I really appreciated the information and am interested in obtaining a diffuser and splitter if I can for the right price. Maybe we can talk at a wednesday meet and such.


Money is, sadly, fairly tight currently, but I believe in a great product and if it is local business, I am all for that too

This is going to have to be a subaru of America thing. They denied all my claims and pretty much gave me the middle finger...

Cool, just figured I would say that we aren't a company that copies anyone. We like being original. We have some big projects planned to come out in the next few months too.

I need to make it to more of these events! I'm so busy I end up working my nights away most the time... .
