Grassroots_BRZ SWP build

I’ve had my SWP BRZ for about six months now and was long overdue for some much needed modifications. I got a set of Tanabe GF210.

Not really the handiest guy, so I headed to Indotech Auto Shop in Arcadia to get my springs installed (great place - check them out if you’re in the area and in need of getting some work done).

The drop is subtle, but substantially better. It closed that awful looking wheel gap!

The suspension on the BRZ is already great, but the ride feels even better, now.

Added some rims to the car. NS Wheels 18" with 9.5" offset, in bronze and got Federal 595's. The wheels just clear and didn't have to roll my fenders.

Latest installation

Just swapped out my exhaust for a Borla one. Also added a diffuser. Couldn't be happier with the sound. A lot more aggressive now.

Did it just in time, too, before the Subaru vs Mitsubishi race at Adams Motorsports Park last night. Took first place!
