BTW, recalling one funny case of weird car handling. Lot of time was spent on debugging handling problem in suspension/alignment .. real issue was one of tires (of asymetric thread pattern) was mounted on wheel wrong way and i somehow didn't notice it after tire mount shop

Excellent rebuild. A unique BRZ (and they're rare enough to start with).

Top job fella

The colour really suits it. That's looking mint.

A quick update on progress with the BRZ, had very little time to work on it however its gone pretty smoothly so far. The only major issue I have so far is the fact facelift washer jet covers for the front bumper do not fit pre-facelift headlight washer jets themselves, which is annoying as I had bought them separately as they were missing off the car. Solution is to do away with headlight washers and just stick the covers to the bumper, or a more sensible solution is to source facelift washers, very hard to come by and expensive from the dealer. Sundays job involved stripping the front end down: - Removing the wings as they werent bolted on properly, they were only on for ease of transport Untitled by James Baker, on Flickr - Refitting the wings - Fit headlights - Fit HID kit for headlights - Fit bonnet struts from Fensport - Wire in the new aftermarket yellow fog lights - Wire the drivers side repeater as that was destroyed - Sort panel gap Untitled by James Baker, on Flickr - Fit bumper under tray - Fit front bumper - Refit a load of plastic engine bay trim Untitled by James Baker, on Flickr Untitled by James Baker, on Flickr Untitled by James Baker, on Flickr I still have a pile of stock bits to fit like wheel arch liners, number plates etc then its ready for an MOT and back on the road. Then the modding can begin.

Surely mileage that low would be an issue with the car. Can’t see the brand of petrol having that much of an impact

That’s always a benefit of getting a good quality paint job. It’s always much thicker and therefore more durable than most manufacturers put on.
