Good choice. One of the lightest 17x8 wheel available. Did you buy another set of Primacy HP? or just swapping over the stock ones?

I'll be switching up to the Pilot Super Sports when the Primacy HP's wear out though. Maybe go up to a 225 width. Last edited by stevo_12v; 05-09-2012 at 02:14 AM. Reason: Typo |

OK, good. I wouldn't recommend the HP when the time comes for replacements since there are so many better options for the price.
You'll definitely want to go up to 225s. 215 is already a little stretched on an 8" wide wheel. |

Me like just don't hit any pot holes. They might not last very long on the street.

If you don't kind me asking, why the Scion badge? Scion seems to be fairly looked down on in the States (just look at all those badge swap threads!); is it cool in Australia?
And I'm sure some US guy would love to trade you Scion badges for your Toyota ones...

I'm thinking of getting a Scion badge because there aren't any Scions here in Australia. A minor exception is the Scion xB which they call the "Toyota Rukus" here. If people ask me, "what car is this?". I could just say, "Oh.. its the new _Scion BRZ_" trololol I'd probably put the SCION badge on the BACK though since I will probably be removing the OEM bootlid spoiler and replacing it with the SCION/PINK STI/TOYOTA badge(honestly haven't 100% decided what badge to go with yet, but Scion badge would definitely be amusing) and then getting it repainted(if the badge holes don't match up) - just less hassle with the badge on the back I think. |

w00t! Just got an email back from PF
"For the badges, unfortunately we couldn’t find any of those oval types in your attached pictures in current TRD/STI product range… Also for the Side Vent, unless you can specify the details of the items such as brand name, part number, etc…, it will be too hard for us to locate it. If you are after Subaru/Toyota OEM parts, we can quote them only if you have exact OEM part numbers for the parts you are after. Below is price information for the other parts that you are after. CUSCO Oil/Air Separator (9,000 JPY = $112.20 AUD) STI Oil Filter (Part Number: ST152084S000): 3200Yen(= $40.0244 AUD) STI Oil Filler Cap: --- Please specify part number for this as we couldn’t find it in current STI parts catalogue. STI Radiator Cap (Part Number: ST4511355010): 4200Yen --- Please note STI has not been confirmed weather this item fits BRZ or not. (= $52.528 AUD) TRD Front Strut Tower Bar to suit Toyota 86 (Part Number: MS324-18001): 28000Yen(= $350.186 AUD) TRD Door Stabilizers (Part Number: MS304-18001): 14000Yen(= $175.105 AUD) TRD Sports Air Filter to suit 86 (Part Number: MS155-00009): 8400Yen(= $105.063 AUD) TRD Member Brace Set to suit 86 (Part Number: MS300-18001): 55300Yen(= $691.62 AUD) TOP SECRET Bonnet Damper to suit 86/BRZ: 24800Yen( =$310.171 AUD) " Just need to find out a PN for that oil filler cap.

![]() Must say though, those pink oil filters and caps are pretty sweet lookin', even though they probably have no advantage over regular black Subaru ones right?
