I guess there's a doppleganger of your asphalt in sherwood.

Suberman · 07-21-2013, 06:33 PM

Bought my BRZ in April, new crop of arrivals at my Jaguar dealer in all colours, so snapped up one of the White ones.

Did the 1,600 km break-in mostly on hwy 762 and Plummers Road, nice circuit through Millarville.

Just about killed me to keep below 4,000 rpm. I cheated just a bit and mainly it was the engine's fault, free revver that it is, even while factory tight.

Only mod so far was to kill the silly little noise maker. Will be asking my dealer to drop the clutch pedal and bite point a little, down at least to the same height as the brake pedal, see what he says about that.

Got the home link auto dim rear view mirror to put on also.

BTW, if you park outside a lot the OEM accessory sunshade is very nice and effective to keep cabin temps down while parked as well as save the dash top from heat.

bit of a useless post but i hit the milestone 1600km today! letting the FA20 stretch its legs through the rev range felt great
I've made a few simple cosmetic changes so far, trying my best to hold off on engine bolt-on's until after i get the winter rubber sorted out.

I'm selling my Federal Himalaya WS2 winter tires, I drove with them for ~6 months. They work great, but I won't be driving in the winter this year so I'm selling them. PM if interested.

Here's a post by Carlos in Calgary Opti-Guarding my car (lots of pictures). He did amazing work. I highly recommend him.

@kALMIGHTY

i gotta say, that is a rich looking blue. didn't realize it had so much depth to it, looks pretty dark in the brochure and i can't recall seeing a clean one at the dealership. i've always had a soft spot for a nice blue

glad to see everything worked out for you in the end

Can't go wrong with him. I am planning to go see him again before I park it for winter. Oh shit did I just say winter ?

Could someone pm me with some details on this Carlos?

Been considering getting some professional detailing done to clean up mine and fix a few things and it seems he is pretty well reviewed so far.

New guy here from Edmonton...Been lurking the site for awhile now. Don't own a BRZ quite yet, but looking to purchase soon. Test driven several times and each time it is a blast. Anyways, just thought I'd pop my head in and say hi!
