Alpine's Boosted BRZ Thread
Hello everyone this is my build thread for my now boosted BRZ. I have heaps of fun in this car as it sits at 300whp. My previous cars include a 2005 350z, and 2010 Hyundai Genesis, and a 2007 BMW 335i. I can say with certainty that this is the most fun car that I have had out of all of those even prior to adding a turbo. I love how this car looks and I hope to only make it look even better with the mods I install. With that being said I plan to make my car have a more track oriented stance, and later on a more track oriented look that will still be normal enough for the street since I daily drive my car.
Thanks for looking! Pictures will be from my phone unless they are from a shoot. Currently how it sits Thanks go out to the following who this build would not be possible without @Sportsguy83 @marcoaferrer @jamesm Current Mods: [Performance] Fa20Club 60 Trim Turbo Kit EL Header Tomei Type 80 Cat-back ISIS Test Pipe Hallman Manual Boost Controller HKS Filter Full Blown Oil Cooler Exedy Stage 2 Clutch Omni 3 Bar map sensor [Exterior] TRD Style Spoiler Paint Matched Sidemarkers Bayson R Front Lip Red Niteshade Tail lights (previously) Nokya 2500k Fog Light Bulbs LED License Plate Lights HTAuto Sideskirts TOMS Tail Lights JDM-Spec Perrin Shorty Antenna Fog Light Delete Yellow DRL Tint Boomerang DRL Mod 5000k Lowbeam HID Upgrade [Interior] Suede Wrapped Interior Trim Black Painted Interior Trim Perrin Shift Knob (previously) LED Interior Lights Nardi 350mm Deepcorn NRG 2.0 Black & Gold Works Bell Short Hub AEM Failsafe Prosport Guage Pod 350z Cup Holder DIF Drift Button (Previously) Cusco Drift Button Custom Interior / Cluster LED Swap WC Lathewerks Shift Knob [Suspension] BC BR Coilovers 10k/10k SPC LCA Brakes Project Mu HC+800 pads Centric WRX Rotors ATE Super 200 Brake Fluid [Wheel / Tire] White Work Emotion CR Ultimate "Kiwami" 18x9.5 +30 (Previously) Enkei RPF1 SBC 18x9.5 +38 Achilles ATR Sport 2 255/35/18 Muteki SR48 Burning Blue Lug Nuts Parts on order: Personal Grinta Future Planned Mods Alcantara Shift Boot NRG 2.5 Quick Release Rear Fog light Bucket Seats Maybe Stuff APR Mirrors Voltex Type 1s TRD Fender Garnish BBK Early Posts Including first pick up of the BRZ, Suede Interior Wrap, Front License Plate hole removal, interior trim painted black, redout tail lights, white stock wheel plasti-dip, instal of front lip and rear TRD spoiler, BC Coilover install, 20% tint, color-matched sidemarker, custom 12v port, Tomei Type 80 Instal, Muteki Short Closed ended lugs http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...92&postcount=4 Painted the Strut Tower bars with some dupli-color http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...9&postcount=13 First two of the Work Emotion Kiwami's to show up http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...4&postcount=21 Rear Wheels on with Muteki Burning Blue SR48 Lug Nuts http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...4&postcount=24 Front Wheels are on!

So I Picked up the car in Boston, Ma
Here I am on the drive home to Maine (my stepmom's camera is terrible I know) Interior shot (stock) Decided to wrap my interior in Suede/Alcantara to match the center of my seats As the car was from Mass. it had a front license plate, as you Florida peeps know we don't need one down here, so I am currently having the holes filled from the butcher job they did on my front bumper. Painted some of my interior trim pieces black (will post better shots later) Red nightshade on my tails, I'm not a big fan of clear tail lights OMG SNOW!! They still need to go through another round of wet-sanding and buffing to get them super clear. Random plug for my AWESOME DRL's Got my front lip from Bayson R, For a urethane front lip I've never heard of one being so straight and not all warped Removed my BRZ Limited spoiler to replace it with a TRD style one Edit #1: Got my Front bumper and Trunk + Spoiler back! NO MORE UGLY HOLES!!! TRD Style Spoiler Got some goodies in the mail! All this snow is making me miss Miami This also showed up today! Painted my reflectors to get rid of that nasty amber Installed my own 12v port to plug in my radar detector Here is what my car looked like on my drive from Maine to Miami How my car was sitting after I raised it up for the ride down Tomei 80r Instal done! Perrin Shift Knob LED License plate lights Wrapped my gauge hood in suede Muteki Closed ended lug nuts, blue 20% Tints Last edited by alpine; 03-28-2014 at 07:14 PM. |

Sweet! Good to know the TRD spoiler covers the holes.
Did you need to drill new ones or do they mount in the already present holes?

That Tomei exhaust is beautiful. Great looking BRZ! Have you thought about some wheel spacers so that the stock wheels will be flush?
