2 years and 15,xxx miles with this car and I am still in love. Sadly, my modding and fun will come to an end for a while as I'm starting college in 2 weeks, and funds will be low.

Last post for a while... Finally got myself a set of Michelin PSS, wow do they make a world of difference!

Finally did a steering wheel wrap, word to the wise: make sure you get the correct one while ordering it....

After a long while of being away at school, I figured it was time for more mods. Purchased an 034 Motorsports Rear Sway Bar & 034 Dogbone Insert. Didn’t have time to snap a pic of the RSB before installing but quality of the Dogbone insert looks great!

Installed Akebono Euro Ceramic brake pads, had a bit of an issue fitting the rears but fronts went on seamlessly!

6 years and 58,000 miles later and the car is still running amazing! Just switched from APR V1.3 Stage 2 to 034 Motorsport's Stage 2 after discontinuation of support on APR's side. Excited to compare the two!

Oh nice I didn't know 034 had TCU tunes, how do you like it?

It makes such a difference, especially around town! The best way I could describe it is that it takes the indecisiveness out of whether it wants to shift up or down, as well as when it chooses to hold or release the clutch(es). Thoroughly worth the price imo!
