Drove my Car for the first day with my installed Perrin 2.5 cat back resonated system. Loving it for my DD!! Thank you Perrin!!! Plus used their plate frames to get off the dealer ones. Nice touch.
Anybody know the best brand for a solid brass chrome license plate frame?

Fits excellent with the three factory anchor points and perfectly compliments the oem alcantara in the BRZ limited.

It's fun to have a pack seat driver. My son watches my tach and speedo. He always asks how fast we a going or reads the numbers to me. Sometimes he tells me not to shift. Other times he says go 6 or 7. He is talking about the tach. He knows 9 is "Too Hot". Or he will tell me to go 100! I'm teaching him that the cops will give us a ticket if we do that. He knows all his numbers thanks to the digital speedo..

The next stage is to ask him if he wants to go REALLY fast when at a stop. Then secretly switch to KPH. You'll blow his mind!

Package came in today from @GrimmSpeed! Cherry Blossom paint to add some STi character. I'm still planning on adapting the red TRD and tube on the intake to the cherry blossom color. I am also strongly thinking about painting the GrimmSpeed MCB the cherry blossom color, but not sure if that would be a nice accent or out of place / over the top? I plan on painting the oem calipers cherry blossom when I get my brz back along with the oem cross bar thingies (I am not sure of the technical word for them, they form a triangle with a strut tower bar once that is installed).

We did some drifting (and a few spin outs) in the first rain in an open parking lot about a month ago. After that day he still says to me to do "Circles". He had a blast. I did too!

Not yet. Did not install yet. Been crazy here at work with the derailment in NY. Hoping to put them on tomorrow during lunch. But I promise pics daytime and night when I get 30 minutes of free time.

Chauntalei · 12-05-2013, 04:08 PM

Axleback is installed! Pics coming soon.

Ended up having to take it to a shop. I could NOT get the bolts loose, and the guy at the shop ended up having to cut them, they were seized up so badly.

The best driver-input mod to do, not to mention the cheapest & easiest. 2nd to that is the short shifter and weighted shift knob.

Someone hit my car while parallel parking behind me....And of course their car is missing half of their bumper SO they managed to SCRAPE the "textured plastic." It's not a lot of damage, but it's damage none the less... Took pictures and going to see if I can't my insurance to do something about it.
