ztrevs 2017 BRZ Build
Hey guys! Super excited to be finally putting out a detailed build of my BRZ.
Took delivery of it Sep 2016, sitting at 10,000 KMs as of posting. The goals I have are simple, I'd be breaking it down into phases: 2017 - Phase I: Aesthetics My goal for this year was just to get the car how I wanted it to look. Now that I'm super happy with it, 2018 is the big year! Current Mod List: Cosmetic/Function: LED Dome Lights LED Reverse Lights Trunk LED Lights Door Sill LED Lights License Plate LED Lights Sidemarker LED Lights JDM Clear Side Markers JDM Frameless Rearview Mirror BaysonR STI Replica Front Lip JDM Exhaust Tips Rallyarmor Mud Flaps Performance: K&N Drop in Air Filter Exterior/Body: Opti-Coat Pro Ceramic Coating (OCG Detailing) Grimmspeed Hood Damper Kit Titanium Bronze/Blue Shift Knob Wheels & Tires: Work Emotion D9R 18x9.5 +38 Michelin Pilot Super Sports 245/35/18 Suspension: Greddy x KW Coilovers 2018 - Phase II: Function and Performance I missed out on tracking season in 2017 so I will be making some changes here and there to get better power and handling! Current Mod List: Tomei Expreme UEL Headers Open Flash Tablet V2 Perrin 2.5 Resonated Catback Volks TE37SL 17x9.5 +36 Double Pressed Black Hankook RS4 255/40/17 Planned Mod List: VIS SS Race Trunk Enkei RPF1 or 720form GT1 (track wheels) Michelin Pilot Super Sports 2019 - Phase III: FI???? Hard to say if i'd commit to it... ill have to figure this one out in 2018 after my performance mods. SHOPS THAT I PURCHASE FROM (have to give credit where credit is due): RED = Alphamotorsports BLUE = Nextmod GREEN = Diodedynamics ORANGE = WC Lateworks PINK = FT86Motorsports Purple = Forum Member (unless otherwise stated) Last edited by ztrevs; 07-26-2018 at 12:08 AM. |

Great looking ride. How do you like those coilovers? The wheel fitment looks on point.

Great set of coils. Build quality is fantastic. I don't have experience with others so I can't really compare ride qualities, but they sure do handle a mean corner nicely.

We are back baby!!
The sun is out, and track day in about a week. Tune + UEL + Catback are matches made in heaven. They make the car sound fantastic and make the twins so much more powerful! Next up on the list of mods... shred through my OEM pads/OEM tires and buy some good bits! |

Had a great experience at the track this past weekend! My biggest limitations were definitely stock tires/brakes.
Currently saving up and will invest in a track set up soon! shoutouts to @Dougboy for the shot! |
