For those concerned about the Direct Injection seal failure, the article below explains the root cause.

Cliffs: WOT/aggressive shifting above 5200 RPM may cause premature DI seal failures.

I hope they make a recall, because a failed Direct Injector = no good. I think it's a possibility that a failed DI is what caused some BRZ/FRS to catch on fire, although I cant say for sure....

Anyone else having issues getting HD Radio to connect? My BRZ would not connect this morning at all.

Can someone try today and let me know if theirs connects? Need to figure out if it's just my head unit or something local.

Test and tune is on 7/21/2013. You'll get tons of runs and plenty of seat time. Come on out!

HD radio still on the fritz.....wtf. I wonder how we get updates for the head unit. Anyone know?

On a more exciting note, I got money together for the Innovate Kit....

.....then talked myself out of it! I'm good at that.

Decided that there are too many supporting mods that are needed before the kit is installed (Due to tuning) so I'm ordering the FA20 Catted Header, the Nameless front pipe (Overpipe built in), and the PTuning cat-back. Ptuning should pay Snoop as his exhaust sound is what sold me on it.

I'll have to check my radio on the way home from work today.

Very exciting. I can't wait to see the inovate kit in person.

You can gladly send me the money for the Innovate kit. I will take good care of it for you

Tough Mudder for me that day. I should give you my GoPro 3 for the day, if you don't already have one. Then I can live vicariously through video!

Definitely. I'll meet up with you a day or two before. I've tried several different spots for the cam but this this is the best spot IMO. Take into considertation that this is taken with my gopro 2, not the 3. Hence the quality is a bit lower..
