My BRZ Limited is almost here! I just closed a deal on a 6 speed manual WR Blue Pearl BRZ Limited. Had to go out of state and I got an awesome deal. (like invoice!!!) This one is brand new off the boat that just came into the dealership last week. (its got 6 miles on it) Had it on hold with a deposit for like a few days before it came in. I should have it sometime next week. I have to have it carrier shipped since its like a 1000 miles away. Can't wait to meet up with you folks one day. I am already wanting the Motiv Overpipe and Front Pipe.

I am. Just need to save up a little. Not going SC route. What's the quote for 93 O + E85 tune and do you need to get a different fuel pump and injectors for E85? How much gain difference on 93 vs 85?

Congrats on the buy. Motiv pipes are awesome, just installed them today. I have it with stock midpipe and Greddy SP. exhaust. Not too loud, but perfect. If you wanna check it out let me know. Extreme86 has Motiv also, but he chose high flow cat (I have catless). But he has SRT catback Exhaust I believe.

Also, installed Rally Armor mud flaps, which look great! Will be posting more pics tomorrow!
Awesome pics! Glad you are pleased with the MOTIV OP and test pipe!! What a difference it makes!!! Right. Really opens it up at the top end don't it?

Sold the SRT set up as was too loud for my wife. Put on a Perrin Resonated and it is just right now. Good low tone, no drone, no rasp, low restriction, adds horsepower. Comparable to the TRD as far as loudness. Louder than stock as you know it is there when you floor it! No regrets whatsoever...except I do miss the SRTs rowdy growl!!!!

To those of you who havent gotten around to taking your car to @JsDetail check this out, before and after shots of a Raven FR-S. Not my car but I will tell you, this was the FIRST thing I did to my car, days after the dealer and I never regretted it.

I just ordered a bi-xenon light kit. Install should be fun considering the headlights need to be baked to open up for bulb swap. Anyone have any experience with this?

Holy cow, that's an amazing difference! Heard from a buddy (Rafael, drives a silver FR-S) that they did a group buy and got it done for a steal. Waiting hopefully for another one before I get it done (besides rebadging and getting a spoiler).

Any idea how it compares to that opticoat I hear everyone talking about?

Its about the same imo. but I would go with the Cquartz for darker cars, give them alot more depth. Lighter cars I'd go with Opti.

I wish I could agree with you.

I am 45 days in to getting a deer dent (hood, bumper, fender) removed, and Jacks did a much less than steller job on it. I am now getting another shop to look at things that they could not seem to get right.

Ah cool deal. I have the Argento, so I'd probably need to do the opti. Do they cost about the same?
