Installed front cusco strut bar with brake support


** June 19th
Installed my Perrin 3" Catback system. The car sounds SICK!
Thanks @Sekal for helping me install



** June 23rd
Installed the Beatrush Rear Differential Support. I was expecting an increase of NHV, but to my surprise this actually reduced that.

Shifts and acceleration are so smooth now, this is one of the best upgrades you can put on this car.

Anyone thinking about upgrading mounts/bushings, you should upgrade all three places.

To recap what I have installed:
* Perrin Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S Engine Mount Kit
* Perrin Transmission Support Bushing (you could skip this to make things more quiet)
* Whiteline Rear Positive Shift Bushing
* Beatrush Rear Differential Support

** June 26th
Had red out taillights installed at @Pure Automotive




My Vortech is on a truck somewhere.. Hope it shows up today! My p3 gauges are supposed to show up tomorrow... Looks like this weekend will be install day!

** June 27th

Received Vortech, started the install, was up until 2am working on the car.

** June 28th

Continued the install at 5pm, called it quits at 4am when the Tune failed to flash onto the car

** June 29th

Got a new Tune file from @Visconti , managed to lose the air bleeder screw for the radiator system while burping it , ordered a new one from subaru

** July 4th

Received the air bleeder screw, finished burping the radiator, drove the car around a lot pictures and more info coming soon
Thanks go out to @No Brakes , @nataku , @Sargy , @Sekal for helping install stuff

I'd like to go with an aos. I would need some kind of instructions or guidance to put that in.

I'm going with the crawford AOS. BRZclub has a video about how to install it on youtube.

This is easier then I was thinking.. Adding to my list of stuff to buy thanks

Bump for parts update

[midnight23]

Did you opt for the 3" perrin exhaust since you're going FI? Better gains

[v1ru5]

I wasn't aware of that option.. I'll send the vendor an email and see about upgrading the order

I don't think it's technically out yet. The only folks who got em were those who attended the Perrin event and purchased it directly.
