WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR BRZ TODAY? - Page 816 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Washed it over the weekend after being in the garage all winter. Never have waxed it yet since brought it home November 2012, but it only has 5400 miles on it and only gets out on the weekends. So think it is alright, still looks great.

Finally joined the club and bought one. Traded in the Old truck and now feel as if I'm in a go cart, and its the greatest feeling ever. haha

Ive stalked the car for six months now and im happy with how it worked out.

(insert ambiguous statement of how do i make it faster here)

Congrats! I went from a wrangler to my BRZ, so I know what you mean!

As for power..
UEL catless header, Catback exhaust, and OFT Stage 2 E85 Tune will get you close to 40whp gain.
(edit: forgot the K&N drop in!)

Did this with mine and it drives and sounds like it looks now

Will cost you a couple thousand, but I think it was well worth it.

Yeah coming from a lifted full size f150 is quite the shock.

Heres my plan for mods:

OFT & OFH
then to work my way back on exhaust, havent decided yet but leaning towards perrin 2.5 not too loud but good tone. From there I plan to move on to springs, wheels and tires.

I think With most of that I will be more than content, add in a few visual mods here and there and she will be where I want her.

That's what I've got

Here's some clips of how it sounds. I'd also recommend a heavy shift knob (I got raceseng slammer), clear or smoked side markers, and black interior trim pieces.
