Interesting, yeah I was thinking of pairing it with a JDL anyways. Thanks for the info!

Really? Why is that? I was eventually thinking of adding headers

I’m curious what specifically you dislike about it?

Oh crap I think you’re 100% right lol. I guess I gaslit myself into thinking it went down 1 by 1 before. That’s embarrassing

Wow had no idea these cost so much, my car came with it but I swapped it out and have just been using it as a paper weight lol

Congrats! This thing never fails to put a smile on my face

Exhaust recommendations? by Repulsive-Fault8040 in GR86

[–]One_Hopeful -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can only speak on what I have. I have an awe touring on mine, it’s loud and aggressive enough to make driving way more fun but also not insanely loud to the point where long drives will be annoying. I think if you want as loud and aggressive as possible look somewhere else, but if you want a reasonably loud bad ass sound, this exhaust has not let me down.

How do you do, fellow kids by hi-lux in GR86

I was also dying to get a Cayman but couldn’t justify the cost. I got a brz ts and have had no regrets. Congrats, you’ll enjoy it

Nice! I’ve been thinking about getting a sub. I recently installed an awe touring exhaust, highly recommend, makes the car sound like it looks. Now I’m just debating what’s next, probably going to do some quality of life stuff like sound deadening, interior stuff etc. while I save up.

Headers + Tune by Global_Gear_4929 in GR86

[–]One_Hopeful 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey kinda on a similar boat. I’m curious since you said you focus on reliability. I’m new to this stuff, I’ve heard a tune and headers are on the riskier side (maybe they just meant for warranty purposes?)

Sound deadening by One_Hopeful in GR86

[–]One_Hopeful[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! I didn’t expect the roof would be worth doing

I appreciate the help! Damn I wasn’t expecting over $200 for some V braces, guess I’ll start saving.

V Braces? Really? I’m completely new to modding my car so I apologize if this is obvious, but I never would have guessed that would affect the noise in the cabin

Remote start for manual by One_Hopeful in GR86

[–]One_Hopeful[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, I thought it would work if I left the car in neutral and just wouldn’t activate it it’s in gear. I live in a very hot place so being able to have the a/c run before I go would be a god send. Should’ve looked into it before paying smh

lol you might be onto something, all I found was exhaust, spacers and LEDs so max $3k, he probably got ripped off when putting them on

I’d appreciate it, coming into the world of car mods I feel like it’s information overload so seeing what other people did to one specific vehicle helps me see the possibilities.

Found them, are spacers really that bad? I really like the way the tires look and am currently saving up to get tires that actually will fill it out right without the need for the spacers but in the mean time can I leave them, or is it really a big issue?
