PROJECT ROCKETBUNNY BRZ build thread - Page 15 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Looks fantastic, nice work! I love those wheels, wish they had concave faces in sizes more appropriate for a non widebody BRZ so I could get a set

If I could change anything I would probably swap the tails - the car is really clean given how agressive you made it, but the tails stick out too much for me.

I'm actually going to the dealer to get my stock ones replaced, and then I'm putting them back in today.

After reading around and researching quite a bit, I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on a Vortech supercharger. I'm going to have all my suspension goodies put in by the end of the week so I won't be messing with the the handling much more. It will be interesting to see how the increased handling will be with the increased power. I'm excited

Sweet!!! Its kind of disappointing reading about some other Rocketbuuny's with no power mods. Might as well throw on 50 NOS stickers if you're going to go that route.

Put the stock tails back in. Going to paint the spyders and finish them to a glossy coat.

Do you have the beatsonic sharkfin? How did you get it to fit?

It just has 3m double stick tape. Clean up the roof and slap it on.

That is my opinion alone but I think it would make a big difference. It did on Do boys

I am. I was waiting for my new stockies to come back in so I could have lights while I paint them and do it perfectly.

Ah, interesting. Beatsonic says on their website that the fr-s fins won't fit on the BRZ limiteds, good to know.

That's not good exposure!! Lol I have to send threatening emails once a week at least to have pics of my car removed from eBay and other sites using my car to peddle their parts. Unless you pay me or give me free parts I don't want my pics being used, plain and simple. You should have them pulled unless you're compensated accordingly.

Hey Just got my rear bumper on mine. Are those just reflectors in the 2 holes on the back or actual lights, and what size and where did you get them?

I'm pretty sure they are just reflectors .

VesperLynn · 07-25-2013, 07:00 AM

Okay, I haven't been on here much recently so I decided I would finally update this. I just got my Wilwood 6 pot front 4 pot rear big brake kit and and very excited to install them. Pictures will be up after the install.
