yes, I'm in Ohio.
Time is money as they say. I don't have "free" time which is why I'm looking for sponsors. I'd like to see the car do well, and getting the online community educated on the vehicle bumper to bumper early on has got to be good for everyone, right? |

The aftermarket companies will have this pretty much torn apart in a few weeks/months. I wouldn't be too worried about it

If I get enough initial interest on the forums i'd launch a kickstarter project. (individuals would commit their $10, but don't actually get charged until enough participants signup to make the thing worthwhile.)
I know the information will eventually be available and consumable, I'm just trying to fast track it. |

$35 for 72 hour access. Bargain considering the price for a printed manual. |

I was wondering if we could get printed manuals. I have full access to Honda manuals and printed ones as well, so not having access to a Subaru one sucks.
However, pics of a disassembled BRZ are worthless to me. I couldn't care less to see that. I only want torque specs and diagnostics.

$10 to help someone pay for his BRZ to see them take it apart isn't.
