Unfortunately it's winter here and I don't feel like getting winter tires for the BRZ. So I haven't been really driving it for the last month or so, it looks sad up there on the lift and it makes me sad that I can't drive it. I got some joy however today installing some new parts! Can you spot the differences?

One is easy to see, one...not so much.

Well all I see is the stuff that's in your sig... The Blue radiator hoses and the Perrin MCB

Damn! I forgot I added those to my Sig....well there goes my surprise. I didn't actually install the hoses until today xD I've had them for a couple weeks now though. Finally installed them. They look and perform as expected.

Ooo Ooo you got rid of that crappy AIRAID intake?

Question for @PERRIN_Jeff, @PERRIN_Chris or anyone else. One of the upper hoses wouldn't go the last 2mm onto the nozzle. Is this okay? The clamp is tight and on the proper side of the hump, I figured the last 2mm isn't all that important...I hope I'm right, I haven't driven it yet so I want to be sure. Pic is attached to this post.

P.S. Bleeding the coolant system in this car is super friggin easy, especially since the pump is underneath the engine and the radiator cap is the highest point in the system. Woooo!

Hi Sony, that is fine! As long as the clamp is past the bead then you're good. You should be able to get it on a little more if you twist it on, but it's fine the way it is now.

I tried twisting it, it just didn't want to go on any further!
