Can't wait to get night shots because lighings inside looks richer than Audi So many details
After my tractor BRZ I think I could hear a spider fart in this GS.... isnide the engine bay

Hope pictures came out just like you guys wanted, but I am starting to see that I need a better camera

Got a 1 hour lesson from Anil about detailing the exterior of BRZ. Gonna be a badass work.
Oh and Anil drove something he always wanted (car)
Starts with G

2 of the 3 close budddiies upgraded the cars.
Both brand new, Cooper Countryman and a Passat
Other ones still has the e46 Coupe
I'll try to get pictures of those too.

Tell him to record a video

It's may be 3 times stiffer than the brakes I have on BRZ but BRZ is known as soft
2 times stiffer than FX
Not stiff as TL at first press but pretty stiff after 20% that I jerked the car at first day haha
Got it?

re: brake pedal feel, get a brake master cylinder brace. Grimmspeed makes one, as does Perrin and a few other companies. I'm actually getting an AEM strut tower brace, which is actually reported to make the ride less harsh, and it comes with a MC brace built into it!

nice. Just put it in a simpler question.

Does the GS drive like a GS? i am hoping the answer is No because i would give it a serious look with the new FI engine when they release it.

So many choices.. naaah
All you need is Turkish Raki or Vodka

Don't touch that car... just trade it

Even coming from a stiff brake like on TL, I am actually ok with the brakes on BRZ. I got used to it quickly may be but I am happy with the way car brakes actually

AEM Strut tower brace from where? FTspeedfactory sells it?
That Grimspeed I think... which everyone has, pulled my attention but mounting it to only one bolt kind of scared me



Quote: work Mehmet. Nice cars! I just found this thread.
I knew someone was missing
What's up dude
Thanks man, good choice right? hehe Still no idea how I will be going to night skiing after work though... those roads are not fun during winter nights :/

I am going to kill you because you like Brazil
Ok in the past they gave pretty good players to the world but, now they are just assholes.
They think they are the best, which resulted into 7-1 today.

Since the beginning what I was saying is
1st Germany
2nd Netherlands
3rd Argantina
4th Brazil

It's going to happen...

Well, I want germany to win because of my mom and there is a Turkish player in Germany. Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid

Captain of Switzerland is Turkish too, good guy but as a friggen team, Natioanal Turkish team sucked this year.

Dad said Sport mode really changes the car, becomes much more fun
I haven't pushed the car yet but as an engine sounds, it has a nice tone that gave me joy so much.
Couldn't kick it yet but that tone is well done. Unlike a camry v6 haha

Handles pretty good, because awd I guess but still haven't pushed it on the ramps yet

Dad says when you hit, it goes like it strips the pavement off the road as in like becomes one with the road... good power/handling
But he also says that car still an Asian car, it doesn't have that tough feeling of the German cars
And he feels the bumps more than he expected


New FI engine? No idea

Yeah, I have always liked how Klose plays...he sure as hell did well the break the record...am still surprised how Brazil got chopped and served !!! Very unlike them....


But yes, I wanted to see Messi and Argentina go against Nyemar and Brazil....since Nyemar is out, well am sure Brazil is going to finish 4th if they play Argentina or finish 3rd if they play the Dutch....

Either way, I feel either Argentina or Dutch are going to win it....

I miss Michael Ballack
After this morale, they'll be lucky to get 4th place

Why suprised?
It's a team that doesn't take the plays seriously until last minute.
A game where they lost their most supportive player, which also the captain. Thiago Silva.

First 8 minutes Brazil played with Germany so well.
Once Germany scored at 11th minute, their defense just gave up. I don't know why, but if Silva was there, they would've turned the game around may be or at least don't get friggen 7 goals in.

Rule #1. You don't leave any gap for Germans man. World knows this but not Brazil I guess.

dude I agree....the loss was because Germany exploited Brazil....see any game, Brazil will ALWAYS, ALWAYS keep the far post open...a runner from the back will always be empty...Germany did their homework and WON...


Brazil seemed like it was playing 2nd stringers and they were....no Silva, no Nyemar...there was NO ZERO ZILCH challenge....Brazil gave Germany toooo much space...I dont think they gave up until 3-0 or 4-0....but those goals came in soo quick and soo many, they were just punched in the guts....

Yes, miss Ballack as well....


btw Manchester City (yes from UK) is playing Sporting KC on 23rd July in KC....I might go for that

Yes there were some calls against Netherland but well there were couple cards which would have been handed out to the Nederland's as well...

Either way, I think this is what's going to happen:
1. Argentina
2. Germany
3. Brazil
4. Netherland

Brazil will have to play tough though...

I've even picked up interest in soccer (enjoyed watching some of the games i've seen on ESPN), and i'm the guy who usually watches basketball and american football.
