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 and Heavily Modifying a 1989 Nissan Skyline R32 GTS-T - Part 2 - Pandem Widebody Kit is ON!

 

We got a Pandem widebody kit and a bunch of exterior accessories for the R32 GTS-T! 

Rickie starts off today's video by cutting the OEM hood latch and re-positioning it. This allowed us to properly mount the throtl performance carbon fiber GT-R hood on the GTS-T.

After getting the hood installed, Mickey drilled holes into the GTS-T's trunk and temporarily mounted the Pandem wing. While Mickey worked on the wing, Quinn was working on getting the widebody kit mounted up. The toughest part was aligning the over fender on the driver-side quarter panel. Mounting this over fender took slightly more coordination than usual because the GT-R over fenders do not fit the exact mold of the GTS-T's body lines. To allow the fender to fit properly, we decided to extend the factory gas tube and order a Sparco gas door. Quinn removed the factory gas tube and fabricated an extended gas tube to reach our Sparco fuel door on the extended over fenders.

After working on the fuel filler neck and mocking up the over fenders, the boys installed some temporary screws to mount the body kit in place. Next, the boys replace the tiny OEM intercooler with an aftermarket intercooler from ISR Performance. Check it out in the video below!
