    As seems to be the running theme here, I am now on my way back up to TD to collect the car after leaving it there for the past 10days. Couldn’t help myself so decided it was time to stick the Turbo on, got their oil cooler too. excited is an understatement and then the car is over to cadwell park tomorrow 😀

    GR Yaris who's going for it?

    Yes Ian. It was the colour that made me look closer. I think I must have got so used to the white image (which does look nice too) that the red was a nice change. I can just imagine a black one sat next to the GT...................................maybe as a replacement for our IQ 😲

    This week I fitted Vland V2 tail lights to my Subaru BRZ. They are 2017 facelift style lights with the added bonus of sequential indicators. It was super easy and I made a how to video. The before and after difference is amazing, it really refreshes that back end. This is the updated video including torque settings for the bolts and ensuring you do a leak test once fitted.

    Thanks , yes this will be a keeper. To be very open about this build, as it helps others who want to do a similar thing, my aim is to have a road legal working BRZ with a facelift front end for a budget of £7000 all in including the purchase of the car. The car itself was £4200 and an additional £160 to get it transported to me. Currently I have zero labour costs as 75% of the work I can do myself, the only labour I will incur is the cost of welding the slam panel in and a check that the front end is straight. I have about 95% of the parts I need already on order or purchased used. I know there are going to be bits missing when I start to rebuild it but theres space remaining in the budget for that. This will then give me a cheap stock car to then go onto modify in the future. The cheapest BRZ on ebay/autotrader is £12,995 so for me its a much cheaper way (and more fun for me) of getting into a BRZ and I certainly wouldn't get near a facelift for that money. The only thing this does not take into account is paint, I could have waited and got second hand parts in the same colour as the car and within the budget, therefore I wouldn't incur any paint costs however my plan has always been to go for a none factory colour therefore is a separate cost. Even with the total paint costs and a number of mods I have already purchased out of the 7k budget, such as lip kit, rear lights, headunit etc I will be no-where near £12,995 cheapest BRZ.
