Surprising our SUBSCRIBER with his DREAM CAR BUILD! (Full Transformation): 2014 Subaru BRZ

  Alex was recently announced as the winner for throtl Dream Build #2! As the winner of #throtldreambuild2, Alex got his car shipped out to San Diego California to be fully modified by the throtl team. When Alex's car arrived, it was a mostly-stock 2014 Subaru BRZ. As soon as the car arrived at the throtl headquarters, the team immediately got to work on some modifications. Alex's car got the works with some new interior, exterior, and performance-based modifications. Interior Modifications For the interior of the BRZ, we installed a custom black suede headliner, throtl shift knob, and a new audio system from OEM Audio+. The OEM Audio+ system sounds significantly better than the factory audio system. This made it way more enjoyable to listen to music in the BRZ. The Opelite Optics headliner had a space theme with led shooting stars that lit up the roof of the BRZ, adding a nice bit of style to the interior.

Building a Modern Day (Fast & Furious) 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX - Part 19 - LIVERY & GRAPHICS!

 

The Eclipse is nearly complete! In today's episode of throtl, we tackle some major projects on the Eclipse that get it really close to completion. 

We already had the air struts installed into the car but there was still much to get done to have the air suspension complete. In today's episode of throtl, the boys finish the air suspension on the Eclipse by installing the air pumps, air tank, and routing the airlines. We ended up borrowing some fittings from our Dodge Challenger project, but it worked out well because the air tank on the Eclipse looks sick! Evan converted one of our NOS bottles into an air tank for the air suspension. The Eclipse now has two NOS bottles in place, just like the Eclipse from the Fast and Furious movie, except one of ours is for air and the other holds NOS. 

After getting the air suspension complete, the boys put the Fast and Furious livery from Modern Image on the car. For those of you who don't know, Mickey used to work at Modern Image, and this is the exact livery used in the movie car. We added our own twist to the livery by putting on the logos from the brands used on the build. The livery from Modern Image completely transformed the look of the car and we couldn't be more stoked on how it turned out! Check it out for yourself in the video below!
