You could get a mustang, but the ford just doesn't excite me. The styling is great, but it is like the 370z in a way. Heavy.

I would rather have a used 370Z over the new mustang. But I'd take the BRZ over the 370z. Strange feelings indeed.

Same Coheed that's on ft86 I assume?

And it's over 400whp on stock internals now

Yes sir. Making the hop over to the BRZ/frs crowd. This forum has been awesome. Learned a ton from the dash, some of the best guys around belong to this forum. I've been on this forum for years, and contributed with several detailed write-ups on transmission rebuilds and how-tos.

The FT86 guys seem pretty cool for the most part, even though there seems to be a lot of drama with nationality. US vs AUS arguments happen all the time. Its quite a bit different than here. A lot more wankers. But there's good guys too. Everywhere forum you go to is gonna have "those guys".

I've built up a good rep here, and now I gotta start new with a new project and forum. It's been interesting.

And here's I'm thinking about getting two SE-Rs.. (they are free though). Might toss a VE in one, part the other out and junk it, or part both out and junk both. :shrug:

LOL, Keep your car stock, hahahaha

I doubt that will happen. Its a tuner car and we are tuner people. Asking someone like us to keep their car stock is like asking a 1 month old to stop shitting in its diapers.

LMAO

I've driven a BRZ and it's a great car...it's literally a go-kart on the road. everything feels perfect, just the slight power decrease but its nothing drastic as many assume. handles like no other, even Porsche Boxsters that I've driven didn't feel this planted. toyota/subaru really hit this one perfectly.

it's getting a slight power increase with the STi model and also a few weight deductions due to c/f goodies.

friend of mine owns a white BRZ limited...minimal mods, volks/lowered/front lip/greddy exhaust. added wheel weight did slow it up some though
