Your Christmas list - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

So you get to pick 500$, 1500$ and 5000$ in parts for Christmas to add to your STOCK car; what do you get?

Let me start:

500$: try to make it work for an intake and Unichip.
additional 1000$: light wheels, either k4s or rpf1, on stock tires.. keep it sliding.
Additional 3500$: I'm not much for FI, so would likely build full exhaust, then pulley set.

Now this thread is not intended to determine greatest bang for the buck mods, because 5K goes a fairly long way to a simple FI setup and that would be it without a doubt... this is about your preferences, for your car, if it was still stock...

Going to spend under $1500.
List so far:
HID's
Vicious LED front turn signal housing
Vicious LED reverse light or Valenti reverse light (not sure which I like more yet)
Front LED DRL strip instead of fog lights
Buddy Club tails

Total to about $1300

Well since it's Xmas and we can dream

Volk TE37sl 18x9.5" squared street set
RPF1 17x9" squared track/spare set
Turbo or SC

Truth is it will happen just gotta get balls to spend that much without shivering over it cause that's all an easy 12 grand, lol

RB V2 kit and a $5000 gift certificate for a body shop to smooth out the rivets, paint, body modifications, and install.

Well. My actual list that im getting is powdercoated wheels and tires and Grimmspeed hood struts. Also getting a Motiv Concepts MCB for the bday (also in Dec). I think itll be around 1000 total, but Im paying for only the wheels n tires. My GF is getting me the other two

For $500, I'll replace my Cusco LCA to SPL LCA.
For $1500, I'll pick up a few supporting mods such as oil cooler, larger radiator w/ fans, and etc.
For $5000, I'll go forced induction. I realize this may not be enough..., but it is the closest to what I currently want/planning.

R.S-HawK · 11-15-2013, 02:51 PM

$500 - Catback
$1500 - JDL Headers + Tune
$5000 - Over/Front Pipe, Intake System, black Enkei RPF1s, Michellin Pilot SSs for road/track, new set of Primacy HPs for drifting, New Tune, perrin pulley, Oil cooler, new brakes and rotors, GT86 headlights, TOMs tail lights, some other cosmectic nonsense like Toyota badges.

Not the most original list, but I want to keep the car NA, mostly for reliabilty reasons.

Luis_GT · 11-15-2013, 03:00 PM

$500 - Spings and LW Pulley
+ $1000 - 3" Perrin Catback
