first drive

I swapped the factory oil for Motul in my BRZ and the first and second times I drove the car, the improvement was magical. It was such a slick gearbox! But from the third time or so after I took the car for a drive, the gearbox went back to feeling kind of notchy again (perhaps not as bad as...

Hi there :) So I've recently bought a new manual brz, yes my first manual car. I haven't driven it yet as I want to get used to driving a manual before jumping right into it. So I've been driving one of my brother's miata for a month to work and class, and I'm just slowly getting the hang of...

I know, write off the top you're saying totally different cars, you can't compare them, blah, blah. And you're right. But hear me out. I bought the last of my dealer's allocated BRZ's in 2012, picked it up in November in southern Ontario. I loved the whole concept behind the car, followed it...

25000 miles in 9 months .. and still love driving it as much as I did when I first drove the car home on a blistering winter saturday. Fish tailed on the first drive, and many more advenures drives ... still counting.. and buning some serious gas. I am in love.:cool:

Hey Guys! I haven't been able to drive a BRZ yet, but my friend just got an FRS, so I drove his auto tonight around the city and on the freeway. OMG I am still giggling like an idiot. It's not as fast as I had hoped, but it SO FUN TO DRIVE!!! I have a scion TC which has some get-up, but it was...

First drive at dealer I was walking up to it and couldn't resist Driving shot She had to get her tires in the sand too on our way to Miami

For all those Turbo fanatics here is another kit out for the BRZ & FR-s AVO's front-mounted Stage 1 turbocharger kit :D:D:D FR-S/BRZ Turbo Kit Official Release

OK, so I've got a Craftsman 2-ton floor jack that I've since 1989. Works fine and all . . . but . . . won't fit under the BRZ. So I need a new low-profile jack. Anyone got one they really like to recommend?

Just curious what was going through people's mind on the first day they took their new brz home.

Hey gang. I'm Patrick. I'd consider myself a "car guy". My commute to work is one hour of empty, windy bliss. I needed something fun for under $30k and this car was probably 4th on my list going in. Then I test drove the thing. Game set match. The lack of power never bothered me, even from the...

1500 miles and already a CEL This morning on the way to work I stopped and filled up on gas. Then stopped at a friends house to pick up something. When I was backing out of his driveway I got a CEL and the car went into limp mode. Went to Subaru after work and they told me that I had to make an...

Thanks to jliltd, a truly generous guy who very kindly offered to let me try out his SS1 MT BRZ Limited, I had my first drive in a BRZ yesterday afternoon. I have exactly the same model on order (October had better come soon!), and I was elated to be able to take jliltd's BRZ for a spin. My wife...
