No AMS cars, but one of my best friends T1R GTR and another friends UGR 2R Gallardo. Dunno if the beastly TT Viper makes it. We OKC boys bring some heat every year. Check out my gay ass YT, ITRPaco.

Sneak peek of the new wheels, powder coat color was off a bit so they are being redone, used a filter to show around what color it should be

Nice to see another set of Advan RGs on a turbo BRZ. Those are some good untuned numbers on the Greddy kit. Interesting to see the difference in the front pipe and catback change. I am surprised you are seeing such low oil temps though without an oil cooler. I could never keep my oil temps that low after 3 third gear passes in a row in the Florida night heat.

Nice wheels! One of my favorites of all time!

I just drove from OKC to Arlington at about 80 the whole way; oil temp 220-224 and coolant 188-194. Averaged 27 mpg. Only cooling mod is an APR cooling plate.

It was mid 60's and got warmer as I got closer to DFW. not really making pulls but still nice to know that they're reliable when turbocharged.

I'm very excited to get them on! It still hasn't heated up over here past 70F at night, when it does heat up more i'll post some new results to see if they differ. Overall I'm pretty happy with the setup.

I'm still getting about 27 mpg as well with a pull or two everyday. There is a meet this Saturday in the morning, i'll do some logging on the way home from it since it will be the first time out during the day in a long time.

Yup FBM radiator, shroud, spal fans, oil cooler are all on. Oil temps dropped about 15F from a test the week before without it (same environments), will do some more testing within the coming weeks.

Nah it looks like it freed up a bit actually with the radiator and fans (but I haven't done any measurements), as for the oil cooler it takes up no space because it is out of the way.
