I ended up buying that damn sti front stipe lol.

Its a mold piece not a sticker. I used to have the sticker replica from ft86speedfactory, but it started to peel off and i didnt like how it looked.

It came in a big box just like seen in previous pictures, this is what it looks like now:

Yup oem sti japan is quality.. you get what you pay for.. cheap becomes expensive.. buy again and again.. i spent over 1500$+ on my aero kit sti on my brz ts 2020 which should of came with the car like the 2018 did.. but the sti carbon wing I didn't car much for because for me i think having that huge wing on the street is useless for me lol.. but I did order one for track use and a trunk at the junk yard..

I was looking at that cherry blossom lip bumper accent and I was like holy cow thats expensive just for that lol.. glad it came with my car.. the back bumper is a sticker on mine whice makes sense because its not going to get wacked by things like the front bumper but I did wish it was a actual part not a sticker on the back so it gives more a pop-up style looking maybe idk..lol..

Looks good on your car

yup you are right. actually i have the rear bumper sticker from ft86speedfactory as well and that it still in good shape. I will leave that one as it for the moment.

The other parts from the Ts model that im chasing is the red brembo caliper set.

And I thought the normal steel version was made of unobtainium the way it was priced. This is on another level.

Yeah I thought so too. I guess It wasn't after all but this one definitely is You could get like three peasant stainless steel ones for the same price assuming that you'll be able to find titanium one at sticker price anywhere.

It is based on the stainless steel version, but it uses better and lighter material. I am not sure if I can justify the price, but it looks that STI believes people will buy it. I have the stainless steel version and I am really satisfied about it. It is a complex design with a deep bass sound and amazing look which definitely improves the character and quality of this car.

Japanparts already has the lowback pressure version preorder listed for $4345USD

It's said to be 15lbs, what is the stainless steel STI axle back's weight? 28lbs?


Side note really wish the restocked 2018 version of the GT300 brz die cast model wasn't a tiny 1/48 scale...
