I might get into modding Ross but not because I want to...
There is a subie shop 3 minutes away from me that I didn't know of.
Owner and workers have like 500hp WRX
They had an annual meeting couple sundays ago... at least like 100 subieees
Just gotta stay away from them haha

To be honest 3G section knows me well that I suck cleaning exterior.
Since 2006, I clay polish wax the TL before 6 months I sold it, which was last winter.
I messed it up too. Polish left some marks on the car but later on it went away...after a month haha
Silver I didn't care

About my body... meh
I went to GYM that morning, came home, washed Q5 in and out
Clean the interior of GS. Love cleaning the interior of that car for some reason. Beautiful details/accents

Then clean the exhaust tips on BRZ + Rims
Wash it with dish soap, do clay, then sealant and etc
Still felt good and took off for the night
Exercise is good my friend

Car still looks great, Meekers!! Sorry I haven't been by in a while!

I like the cover over the cluster on the dash and the tint. Dark tint is the best!

Costco

The car is fine as is. But I love the mods I've done. Invest some money in autocross and track events. You'll probably want to upgrade your brake pads and fluid before the track.

Circuit driving will make you fall in love with the car all over again. Cars pull away from you in the straights, but all of a sudden even on the garbage stock Primacy tires, you reel them in the corners

Lovely updates man!

And yes... definitely take it to the track or autocross. You'll surprised!

Well, you won't like me when I'm angry.

Nooo problem ma man I barely stop by also
Yeah thank God I didn't go legal tint like I did with the TL
Happy late BD by the way Mr.
21 now huh

That would piss the hell out of them
I can't argue. Positive you are true. Have to taste track before winter I guess.

Ok will listen to you guys and look for a Circuit track. Let me give it a try.

Cause you have already seen most of those pictures. Anil too
Heeeilll no, I didn't even sign up for ft86club
Didn't even post anything on their FB page too... well FB page is full of FRS people, and FRS drivers are the kind that plastidip everyshit.. you got it? Unlike BRZ owners
True Acuraziner here haha

Better shots will come soon
You knööw nothin John Snööv



Where is Anil the fool
Master behind my car's clean paint
Busy buying an F1 car for Sid I guess



I should get JnC red out my tails professionally
I am starting to hate chrome
Let me stop by him tomorrow to say hi
He has an amazing update since looong time ago but he didn't post anything on here I think... not tellin

oonowindoo

i think it will look better if you put yellow bulbs in the side markers.

you have 3 different colors in the front right now.

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

duly noted

Meko, looking great, man.
Have you looked into those led bar aftermarket tail lights that are all red? They look great.

I'm sure you'll be shocked but I would suggest a mild drop on springs and some spacers. Don't underestimate how much more stable and controlled the will feel with a wider stance and less body roll. Plus, that won't break the bank!

Either Tom's or Crystal Eye tails! If the Tom's didn't go so well with the Valenti 3rd brake light, Crystal Eyes would be my next pick:

rockstar143

couldn't remember the name, but that'd be my first purchase.

MarbleGT

I love those lights.

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

Jordan. You love those lights.

MEKO

iTrader: (1)

Thought about it sir... nokya wedge bulbs
But last night, noticed that sidemarkers really go with the rear tails, more than they do with fogs...
Fogs kind of get hidden from the side view... only reflection on the ground
So I might leave them red






Well, I know myself, will order them next week and try yellow too

Tails?
Tom's is the only one I would go for
You know that I only love red out tails on black cars, since I could red out my stockies, wouldn't want to invest on red Tom's



And get clear ones like Morgan did... but that's would happen when I get bored of red out stockies one.

I just did red vinyl on them yesterday. Only to front face.

Lowering?
I don't know brother. Not when winter is on the way.
Later on? May be Eibach Pro Kit Springs or RCE Yellow Springs which lowers the car for an inch or so.

No one could make me lower a car more than an inch again and replace bolts camber arm blah blah. Lowered the hell out of the TL and that was a big mistake
Springs will screw up the shocks for sure. Then get Koni Yellows
That would be my plan as far as the stuff I know right now.
Not really have a knowledge on this car when it comes to parts yet.

Spacers?
Nooo man. I don't even want to get bigger sway bars just because it might add a weight, so no spacers too
Well I would actually want Hotchkis Sway Bar Kit but that things is like $450

Will be getting steel rims for winter, wrapped with 205/55/16
Which will lift the car a little too, that's good for winter but for summer
I might get 235/40/17 for the rears and keep the fronts stock as 215/45

Yes I do want new lighter rims
17x7 for front and 17x8 for rear so I could run 255/40 for rears like we did with the TL but stock rims with tires are 40.9 lbs.
Pretty light I think Hard to find a rims I want for lighter or somewhere where it's worth to go for.

I am in love with Enkei RS05RR but no 17", only one I would go for is it's 18x8.5 size



I might still go with Tom's
I don't plan on getting Valenti 3rd brake light.
Will just tap the rear fog to city lights and leave it and might do that today



That Crystal Eye looks nice but may be too much, I just can't decide, especially when I love the stock tails

I might sound stupid or too much but I really like the circular dot lighting on stock tails. Even the signal design.

Couple weekends ago, had a family dinner at CT. 2hrs away
On the way back dad/mom took the BRZ, we drove Q5 with brother and sister.

You see how bottom of the taillights aims upwards to the middle of the car?
When you turn on directionals, lights really fill the square and that design really matches to trunk or the rear end
Loved it when dad turned on the signals hahaha
I know this is too much but those little details really makes me love it and hard to let it go or replace and when you compare it to the signals of the Crystal Eye... I just say meh...

So my plan is to make JnC redout my tails but yesterday I did vinly to the front face of the tails. Really love the red on black car again
Definitely have to red em out professionaly with candy red paint

What up bro!!!

Reverse LEDs


Badasss subie mudguards :P haha


And this is on the way

rockstar143

The redout actually looks damned fucking good.
PS, I wanted those same enkei the 2nd I saw them, but if you notice, mostly they are too aggressive and you have to run fender flares to have them. No thanks...

The Advan are 37.5/40.5 lbs F/R

JS + XES

iTrader: (1)

Hey that red film overlay actually looks pretty good.

And dude.. Enkei RS05RR is like the sexiest wheels for 86. I've seen them in person. The car looks pretty exotic with it. Of course it has to be lowered a little. But yes, that would be my next set if I ever upgrade from my RPF1s. Oh, btw, it doesn't need any fender rolling to fit those 18 wide set up. You can go square without any problem I believe. It's sick!

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

@ "lowered a little".
Bruh, that shit better be slammed if you're spending that kinda cash for that look and width.

I really do love them but once you start riveting/screwing over fenders onto your car, you're raping the integrity of the original design. At least that's how I feel about it.

Costco

Looks good!

You can't run super aggressive offsets on these cars, but 18x9.5 +42 fits without modification. 255 is about the max for tire size though. The wheels on that car above are on a widebody, probably 10" or more in the rear.

JS + XES

iTrader: (1)

18x9.5 +42 fits perfect on 86 without screwing up the fenders! I think these are under $2K for a set, not bad imo.

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

You don't have to convince me, man...I've been in love with them since the first time I saw them.

I dare ya

MEKO

iTrader: (1)

Haha I knowww, red came out way better than I've expected, and it way cleaner/sharper in person. On pictures it comes out dull/blurry.

Your Advans are 37.5 in front Jeremy?
And it's 18 inch right?

I don't know much about tire fitting on this car but using 255/35 on a 18" wheel makes the car sit 1.4cm higher
If I go with Eibach Sportline Lowering Springs which lowers the car 3.2cm
Car would sit 1.8cm lower than stock. Not bad... 0.70 inch

--------------------------

Installed the rear mudguards, don't plan on installing the fronts... maybe during winter.
Reverse LEDs looked way brighter than stock ones. Happy with those
They were 22 bucks on ft86speedfactory, just added them in to get a free shipping..








There was a note inside the box, saying that shark fin antenna will arrive next week but, there was another box in front of the door and...







I'll install it later

MEKO

iTrader: (1)

Damn those look lovely and silver
Do it Jeremy, sell the TL and buy those rims
Don't hit me
Get 18x8.5 ones

If you drive to Boston Anil, then I'll supercharge the car

iTrader: (5)

you sure about that? my sis is coming to NY so I am planning a trip anyway


Love the new pics...

Jeremy is on 17's for the S2000

255 on 18's will make you sit higher if you only get 40 profile tires....I am running 255/35/18 as compared to 255/40/18

blah blah

kthnxbye

iTrader: (1)

Nooo, those black rims from TL are 18"
I think.. Yesssssssss I am positive

I just can't find used steel wheels wrapped with snow tires man
Found one, but was an asshole trying to rob people
Found another one, wants 500 and no TPMS... go home

Let's do this

It's bright!!!

let me tell you what i have been telling another Korean guy:

Costco

I need to resolder my Valenti reverse light been so lazy. Also have the diffuser

I have the bottom light in the top picture, and the tail lights in the 2nd picture... shit looks so gud.

MEKO

iTrader: (1)

I think, I just give up because I can't decide.

Red Tom's really stand out good
That first and last tail lights, both match so good with that Velenti 3rd brake light
Whatever is that 3rd one is, looks angry as hell

F.ck this shit

oonowindoo

looks nice!!! gives the car a beefy look!!!! even though i know it only has 200 hp

oonowindoo

please just do it!... pick any one of them... any one...

but i think the 4th one with a red tint over it will look the best.

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

It's not about the height from ground, visually Meko...it's about less gap between the tire and fender

no, the 17" Advan on the S2000, not the 18's on the TL.

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

Whoah Costco, your a$$ looks fantastic, man.

Costco

That's not my car

It will look like that though.
