Exactly - that second knob is how loud it stays after you mute it. Glad it worked out well for you!

 

^^^^ +1

 

LOL, check my thread

 

 

Steven you have V1 too ?
What up swoooshh, how do you like the new F14 T ?

 

MEKO, I'm in a V1 free-zone.

 

at times Steven baffles me LOL....

doing well Meeks...weekend was insanely busy....

Chris (twigglus) was over....we replaced his runners, did spark plugs, switched out the shafts of the front suspension....took us almost a good 9-ish hours....(with ofcourse, 1 hour lunch break and another hour to run around to fix some issues)....

 

V1 free zone?

Ahh good to be local to Anil
I was about to remove my front bumper after work today because it got warm a little around 28F
But couldn't clear the garage. I am gonna throw all of them out and hide from mom for couple days

I am going to remove the lower fenders, inspire fogs and front A-Spec
and
Clean the intake filter

Then will get appraisal for insurance



Heeeeeeeeeeey you haven't answered my question
F14 T ??? What you think?
That's all I am reading and searching about since 4 days
F1

am kinda liking the engine but not the body work....

i wish FIA can lighten some regulations....

 

fap fap fap

I love the car.

Looks 100x better than last year's.

 

yeah but 100X worse than 2005-ish

 

I just listened the video
What did I tell you huh??????
I knew it was going to sound awesome.
Fawk you to everyone on this forum that said we are going to miss v8.

I swear at 0:13 I though Senna was coming
Exactly same echo man
I love it

Design wise, not bad IDK eh we will get used to it.
I like Petronas so far..

Look I am telling you again, with these regulations and shit plus the design and the driver matching.... it's going to be head to head season.

I was right about the engine, and will be about this too. Don't forget, it's going to be an awesome season.


Mann!!!!! It really does sound like 80s hahahaha
I have to find the practice and watch the videos
Gotta go

 

Road trip to Fiorano!

 

Ahhh we should
I will one day, just waiting to make some more money hehe
and I have to visit Texas first to finish off USA
May be Canyons too

 

hhaha you sir were correct....

I wasnt expecting it to sound this good...to blow your mind, google how much boost they gonna be running


and I never said anything about it being a boring season....its just with TC/LC/all other electronics, it doesnt seem the driver is doing much.... (key word = SEEM)....

I am eager to see Alonso and Kimi win some for the Ferrari...

 

I know you didn't. Just saying.
All these rules puts soo much equality to the car.
Can't even create a downforce from the exhaust pipe now. Even those are similar setup

I am just wishing for them to go back to stick shift one day :P hahaha
Tell me how much boost?

Kimi had the fastest lap today, do you know

 

nah i didnt know that....

here is how you put equality...

weight with driver should be xxxx lbs
whp should be less than 600whp
wtq should be less than 500wtq

and let the company decide if they want v8 or v6 or a turbo i4


am not eager to see stick....i am happy with DCT...quicker and still got control on the transmission...

 

Title to thread changed.

 

meko likes anal

 

 

Final Update

I was going to give a general mod list post for the car so far but lazy right now.
I'll do it on the next page

But got lots of pics though

installed the v1
cleaned the intake
took off my fogs because of a crack
took off the lower grills
fixed the wiring for my lower fogs since salt fawked up all of them
did i install them back?
Hell no

Sprayed the bumper to plastidip
I really recommend it to people in snow areas

when spring comes, will buy new lower fenders, and clear inspires, since smoked ones I have gets hidden under there, plus one has a crack

anyways, that was my plan but there are some

what else..

oh couldn't resist and lowered the car again, can't park if there is snow on the lot

cleaned the TB as well
fixed couple wires that i messed up while installing the independent fog lights

so basicly did cleaning which made me happy
fogs looked great but wasn't a perfect install at the back
now it's all clear, will mod the front end better when snow goes away



friend bought a 2001 civic1.7 but fun to drive, light and 5 speed
yes already installed s2000 round knob
and intake
and replaced the spark plugs
also fixed the ignition
it wants you to hit the clutch to start the car, we canceled it since there is no such a thing like that in our world
now car starts without hitting the clutch

bought headers too which deletes the cat as well but haven't installed it yet

i remoevd this from the TL
no idea why i kept it there the whole time





























finally fixed the vsa and airbag wires


v1





just like what I wanted
height



























this is for Anil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!







if i had the a-spec................... boom



























naaah 3 of you know it already

one man one subie
brz got me bad












black one, limited version which has everything, got a nice price on it, have to go for it

hard to describe the feeling, amazing car
friend couldn't believe me after I told them TL is nothing compared to it haha

Sooooooooooooooooo
selling the tails and trade the headlights, will sell the intake too
found one stock exhaust for 100 bucks
will buy it and sell the ATLP to Austin
he doesn't know yet

then trade the car in, or give it to a friend for the same value
friend do want the car but fuhhh no
I don't want the see the car again
parting out is one reason too.. want to hate the car
too good, hard to get rid of it


i want black because when it comes to small sports car, black is my fav
I want rally blue too because scion doesn't have it, but it's too childish
white looks nice but everyone has it here
silver? nooooooooo hahaha
red? this is asian, not a audi or c7
soo black it is

after work today, running with a TL type-s on the highway made me love the car again but... no i need 6speed

we started from like60, by the time I saw 140, he was 2 cars behind, plus I started from his back lol
Saw him floor it, and then I started to follow him, then pass him

amazing car, can't describe what all those mods did to this car but brz is a driver car, TL not
Not talking about being manual
the way the car goes handles drives, just for driving, nothing else

 

hahaha AWESOME Meeks...


you are gonna love the BRZ, great decision YOU made

 

yeah if i could sell the TL haha

Thanks man, how do you like your pipe

 

I am used to working with 2 holes, but i can get used to this


you are honestly just letting the TL go for a steal...if I was looking, I would buy you TL in a heartbeat

 

hahahaha

dude no one looks at the new tranny new tires coils blah blah or how long term these engines are
especially trade, at least count the remote start. aholes

 

LOL...

I think I can list your mods LOL

Headlights (300)
Taillights (200)
Inspire fogs (100)
HID kit (50)
whatever bulb you are running now (100)
Triton leds (150)
Tein coils (800)
Progress RSB and moog end links all around (200)
Valentine one (300)
Lowjack and remote starter (300?)
ASPEC kit (800)
RV6 HFC (600)
ATLP Exhaust (1100)

Thats 5K on the DOT right there...

the clean retail on your car is 11,825 (http://www.nadaguides.com/Cars/2006/...igation/Values)

I think you can get 12,500-13K for your car

 

Austin may or may not know to expect a text from you

And congrats on the decision although him and I have big fears about you with RWD and snow/ice conditions. Please don't die.

 

Damn, Mehmet! You did get it! Congratulations!

Car looks so good! I'm super jealous it still has the protective paper on it too, I want to peel those off one day when I get a new car.

J did give me a little insight and reading up by the BRZ post I see you mentioned me thank you so much!

And yes, J and I are both worried about you in a brand new, RWD car...in the snow. I first hand saw how crazy you are on the highway don't be doing that!!

All we ask is you stay safe and enjoy the car in good health!

 

^^:what he said:

 

You're going to hate the lack of power in the BRZ, it's dookie slow. However, it's an absolute blast in the corners.

Congrats sir

 

^^^it's all relative, man...some people seem to be okay with it as long as they don't have too high an expectation of it or drive a 5.0 right before it.

on paper the S is a torqueless wonder...but I have a blast driving it fast or slow. Ask Austin

I know, buy an S2000 Meko! Used you will have a TINY payment!

 

You've seen videos of MEKO on the highway. You tell me if he'll be happy with 200hp

 

Ok


My dad approves this car because he knows the old ones and he has been following this car since the day it came out
I am like wow dad, you still haven't done with cars huh haha
But he says that, if it snows while you are at work. You'll sleep at the studio

Haha thanks Austin!!!
Heyyy money in but haven't signed the papers yet. Going to other dealers as well

Sideways is safer than 140mph.. no? hehe
Really thank you Austin, appreciate it.
Aren't you still at college? After college you'll peel em off too

The point where everyone is shocked about. 2.0 engine and me together

Ok here we go.

S is expensive, and I know if I get S, I will mod it, I will try to make it better since an old car. Suspension bars tires ans blah blah
And MPG is low on S

If there wasn't BRZ in the world, that's different.

------

I want Black Ford F150 Raptor, 2010, $35000 but that's not going to happen.
My dream though... may be one day.

You said 5.0 Jeremy, This morning I was checking out the pictures of the new Mustang and it looks supeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer.

I felt like, just getting that one. Pay 35k, get GT Premium. Done
You know I am fan of the Challenger but first time Mustang pulled my attention.

Then I said, how in the world will I stop modding the 5.0
Not going to happen.

$10k more than BRZ, and have to wait until it comes out.
Lower MPG as well.
I'll have fun driving it but not much as BRZ on EVERYDAY DRIVING to work
Not on track.
I don't go 150mph everyday to work, won't be able to push the limits on GT, but would be able to with BRZ.

That's the key to me, pushing the limits is what's fun.

That's the reason why I want BRZ

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

I was with dad's friend last night. They say go get the STI, who cares about gas, gas is cheap here, you don't pay rent or anything, enjoy a fast car.
Other one says go lease BMW 428

Dad says why don't you look at Mini Cooper S

But sitting low inside the BRZ is number one that made me love it, then MPG, then price

But I want that Mustang too.

I don't want WRX, because way slower than my TL
I don't want STI because MPG is like it has a rocket launch in it
I don't want Mini because you sit in it like you are in truck
I don't want GTI because fwd and I am done with Golf

What else
BRZ

What do you guys say?
On the roads I drive, I believe I will have enough fun with 6spd BRZ

Plus, I don't want an exhaust anymore, I don't want an aggressive car anymore, nor needing to mod a car
Mustang will want an exhaust intake and etc, then I will be like I need an another car for.... normal driving
I will want to turn that 5.0 into a real American, but then I will be like, meh modded car again.
I am done with modding, I don't want to anymore

Other list that I would have fun with is.....
S5 Audi or BMW 4?
Of course 4, you guys know that too.
So go for it?
But I know I will want the 435, not 428.... and that's crazy expensive
So cancel that list too

What's left? BRZ

 

Hehe, we'll see about that, buddy.

I foresee some mods hitting the BRZ.

 

Tyler....I was telling Meko the exact same, that he wont be happy with the power....

his answer "I dont drive fast anymore". I spit out the water I had in my mouth....

I did tell him to wait for the BRZ STI (which might come out next year). Has forced induction hence more power and still the balance of the BRZ...best of all, factory warranty....

he has his mind set on the BRZ though and I know for a fact, its only the couple years now that he can enjoy a nice 2 seater car...later on, we all know he will be driving around a riced out Dodge Grand Caravan

 

They are expensive man
Ok there are some little mods Austin but nothing big
Tom's red tails, will go perfect with black BRZ
Front side and rear has splitters
Interior has some nice alcantara stuff for consoles
Seats are alcantara anyways..

Lowering? F. no, no one in the would could make me lower a car anymore
The car just not made for it dammit, there is a reason it's high :P

Edit: oh oh oh
Let me tell you my first mod
You know the rear fog light on brz that doesn't work in US? One in the middle?
It's going to become a flashing red led lights, just like the F1 stop light

Oh heel toe gas pedal too from toyota


-----------

Swoosh you fool

Dude from now on I rather get Mustang GT instead of a boosted fast Asian car
BRZ STI would be $10k more I am guessing let's say.....why not Mustang GT then?

BRZ is extreme, yes only for young ages, unlike 435 that's in my list, but I put Mustang GT in to same level as BMW 435 from now on. Buy it, enjoy it until 40, even with kids.

After 40? Quattroporte hahaha

I swear I don't look at BMW interior nor any other interior like I do to this one Sooo perfect



Anil, you should get this car too, it's like mini GTR
Buttons in front of the shift

And with this it's just like GTR haha

 

@ mini GTR hahahaa....probably a microGTR LOL

3.5 V6 TT, AWD....2.0 i4 RWD...yeah make that nano GTR



but dude, I love how the BRZ looks well equipped....it comes with stuff you dont get in other 4 cylinder cars (i really wanted to say S2000 but dont want Jeremy to get all mad at me )...I think they did put a lot of effort in the BRZ when it came down to the interiors.... (its not Acura nice, but its not Mitsubishi bad LOL)....

 

Car looks sweet, buddy! Black and red looks awesome!

 

and I hateee the Quatra-TRANS-portee...it looks ugly as fawwwkkk !!!

you know they are replacing that with this right?

I'm glad you've shopped around and considered other vehicles

It's an excellent platform with a lot of modding potential. Don't spend too much money
