    So my wife and I after having been sharing one car for about a year picked up a 2013 blue double cab TRD tonight. Pretty stoked to start making it ours!

    I love love love my BRZ regardless of the hate the twins get I'm always smiling behind the wheel!
    If a rod does decide to sight see outside the block It'll either get a built FA20/24 or an LS swap.

    I lol @ the turbo comment because every single one if my BRZ friends has blown up their motor with forced induction. Great car, weak motor though! I pray for reliable HP and no lean afr.

    you must be young still....
    theres always someone faster, leave it alone & enjoy...
    nothing beats reliablity & constantly tuning & tinkering sucks after the hype wears off...

    Talking from experience here...

    Unless you have the time space and disposable income to burn. Also don't mind a car that's hard to sell that you only get a fraction of the return on. Then yeah it's totally worth it.

    But having done it in the past with pretty much none of those parameters years ago nope not worth it that's why I have the truck with a stock power plant and drive train. I want it to start and go everytime now.

    I've always been of the mind that things are made to be used and tinkering is rich in my blood. Me and my BRZ have a decade of history and I'm ready to boost her into the next one!
    I'm hoping to document the install etc on the ft86 forums. I'll xpost it here for anyone that wants to follow along with me building a grenade ;-P

    Well it’s why you got the truck to not share right. So when something goes wrong you’ve got the extra vehicle now.
