I can't even begin to imagine what it feels like to be living in the path of a hurricane.


Stay safe.

How much did you have to fiddle with the exhaust to get the tips aligned? I've had mine since January and still havent been able to get them perfectly aligned. The left sticks out more than the right

They're not aligned, there's still a slight difference on the left sticking out a bit more. I got it down to less than 1 cm difference but after 3 hours of working on that exhaust for the actual install I was done.

I actually really like how it looks without the letters too! When I bought my 86 I didn't realize it wouldn't be like the euro spec 86's, but actually like it more without

Had my Kraftwerks SC belt break on me and now scratching my head on how or where i am going to get my belt swapped at. Have 2 belts just no place to replace it at. Looking at this kit has made me seriously reconsider recommending it since replacing the belt is more of a pain that i had ever imagined. Certainly not as simple as slipping it on and re tightening.

New RE71's and el-cheapo cast wheels. Going to get to try them out at autocross tomorrow. (They're already a little dirty from a test drive around the block.)

rotated tires, cleaned the backside of the wheels and cleaned the bunny and squirrel carnage from the liners. 37.5psi up front and 34.5 rear is showing a good wear pattern.



Edit...dealership service tech was cool and set an extra quart in the passenger floor. Only one BRZ on the lot in an ocean of foresters and outbacks. The sales manager said they where doing paperwork through the San Diego office as the Florida corperate was closed due to Irma.

Installed the 4 PIN trailer wiring for my Track BRZ and tested it. I also tested my Slambert hitch and my Leroy Engineering tire trailer. All works good now. Best Track setup I have ever had. It works absolutely awesome.
