Ever since the model was announced in 2012, I dreamed of owning one. I never missed a chance to admire them at gatherings. Over the years, STI added its magic touch. Yes, I managed to get my hands on a BRZ tS (Tuned by STI). A car optimized for the track but just as pleasant on the road.
Let's address the elephant in the room right away... No, it doesn't have much power. But people want to race it because they think it's very powerful. Nothing that a few modifications couldn't fix!
I'm telling you, it's the most versatile car on the market. A daily driver, a weekend car, a drift car, a show car, or a track car. There are so many parts available to modify it that you won't even know where to start.
I replaced the header and reprogrammed the ECU to help mitigate the torque dip. I must say the car has been much more enjoyable and linear since then.
I have a very OEM+ vision for this car. I can't wait to see how it evolves over time!
