So, so, so jealous (of driving the locations not the stickers)

Wheel colour rocks on the black!

I was never a fan of gold and bronze colored wheels, but this is the first picture I've seen that I really love the color!

Ended up ordering the HIC Side and Roof visors after seeing @megamarines with them. He opted to mount his on the yellow part of the car while I mounted mine on the black part of the windows. The roof visor was rather easy to install but the side visors took some time measuring and aligning. It wasn't until after I put them on that I realized the windows just barely clip the side visors if I open the door quickly without giving time for the windows to retract. If anyone else gets these, I would definitely recommend you to make sure the windows don't clip the side visors at all. Since Vancouver gets a lot of rain, these will definitely have some function on top of the aesthetic appeal.

Swapped out the Trans/Diff fluid to Motul 300. I love how the car shifts now, very positive but also very smooth.

Now trying to find out why my Q300 has a rattle when I first start the car, or if I am really light on the throttle around 800-1200 RPM. I double checked everything from the front pipe back, no leaks and everything is tight (including the heat shield under the spare). It sounds like its coming from behind the rear axel and sounds very tinny. Suggestions??

Rare occurrence on the whites from what I hear.

I was lucky enough to find that from the factory they decided to cross-thread the O2 sensor.




I've found this to be a common problem with a lot of FR-S and BRZ from the factory.
As of right now I've found 5 cars with the O2 sensor being cross threaded from the factory when I do a header swap out.

Yeah I was less than enthused to see that, then had to wait another day for the replacement to come in. That was after snapping the bolt from the header to up-pipe because that nut was cross threaded from the factory as well.
