Pics are still there............although the links are to Surrey Scoobies BBS.

 

Must be me Don as I can't see them....

 

A couple with direct access.....................

 

Very very nice. I couldnt see the pics before.

 

Where did you get the STI insert for your prova si-drive ****? I have the lathewerks one and I'd love that insert

 

Genuine STi sticker plus some doming resin

 

Don't fancy making me one do you?

 

Bonded straight to the recess in the **** so not actually separate to reproduce.

Hi Don cars awesome!! what paint did you use to spray the plastic above the upper griller gloss black?

 

[quote=Don Clark;10597683]Thought it was about time I did a bit more............

Was fed up with the silver finish on the A/V panel and centre console, so decided to give it the "S206" treatment..............

Before...




How did the paint hold up mate? e.g. chip, scratch, easy to clean?

 

The Tamiya Acrylic spray paint is holding up very well. Buffs up really well.

 

The "wings" on the front grill are gloss black as standard on the MY11 onwards

 

Sounds good! Do you have an after picture as its thy are not showing up on the page? Gloss black paint?

 

For some reason some can see cross posted pics and others can't.

However this is a direct link.
Edges of AV panel done in matt black with matt laquer finish
Centre console done in satin black/laquer to match the OEM satin black curved ornamental panels either side..............

 

James, have updated a lot of the Surreyscoobies cross posted pics (apart from those used in quotes), so worth another read through

 

After returning from my "Fling" trip to Scotland, I found the rear third of the TMIC fins flattened, like never before.
The front 2/3rds are still like new.

Having straightened them as much as possible have invested in a Zero/Sports Cool Action II.......................

Very nice Don.

 

I think this car is awesome! Seen it several times in the flesh but never met the owner.

Subscribing

 

Usually at The Fairmile, second Sunday of the month

 

That's usually where. And the other week coming up behind me on the m4 the day before japfest

 

Nice project this

 

I really like that don, looks mega with the fog covers

 

Is the BRZ handbrake lever plug and play Don and how easy was it to fit?
I am thinking of doing the same to my car but no idea if it will fit

 

Not plug and play. The actual lever part is the same but I had to swap the frame section as the mounting legs are different.

Two rivet heads to grind off (lever pivot pin and lever stop pin) and drill through for fixing bolts on refitting.
Also had to use the original short handbrake wire/balance yoke, rather than the brz one shown here..........



Purchased through AVOjdm (AVO Turboworld)

 

Nice.
Edit: re-read your post. What kind of bolts did you use for refitting?

 

If you look inside of the cable guide, you can see the two rivets that need to be removed to take it apart.


The pivot one has a shoulder on it so as not to clamp the lever and you can see which head you would grind off.

I think I drilled for M4 bolt and washers and lock nut. Reusing the rivet bodies means you keep the nice clean pivot pin and the shoulder stops you clamping the lever too tight.

 

"old lever" refitted to BRZ frame.........











Bolts are M6.
