1. I used to dislike the standard rear wing, now I like.
2. I didn't like the standard rims but since installing my spacers I like.

At first I just wanted a premium brz with no fogs, seat heaters, and leather, but now I am fully satisfied that I got the limited model.

Recently got rid of mine, but...

I originally hated that mine was a manual. After a week or so, I learned how to drive it. So I grown to like it

i personally hated where the 3rd brake like was located, now im used to it, kinda helps block bright lights

I also hated and regretted getting the manual. Now I love it! Since I'm getting better at heal and toe downshift, I get excited every time I drive my car.

I used to hate the torque dip but now I hardly notice it.

I was after the flat four burble and an UEL was the solution and this also gets rid of the dip. See Tomei UEL Expreme.

Yes that's it. I also installed Milltek OP and a Berk fast cat.

Did you do a tune too? I read that these need a tune after instal. I've no idea where I could get that done. Is it something you have to do yourself or can a local tuning shop do it?
As you can tell, I'm new to all this 😊

I haven't had it tuned yet however in its current state it seems fine. It revs more freely.

Did you disconnect the battery at all or did it automatically get rid of the torque dip just on install?
