Awesome. What kind of engine are you going to run?

Dunno. However, cadwell in the morning! :-)

No No; I put "litchfield" eibach bars on front and back, but they've both come off and the stock ones have gone back on. They were 25mm front and 19mm rear, and way too stiff for me. On the bumpy Yorkshire roads, there was no wheel travel, it kept raising an inside rear on steep turns for example. Much better with the stock ones front and back as they allow the wheels to move more. Much better traction.

The Eibach's were 19mm - they seemed ok to drive but the bushes were also quite floppy too when I got them off. Whiteline go up to 22:18 front to back. There are some other manufacturers but eibach seem to have biggest diameter.
 
*Afterthought - The big ARB's maybe a good way to go if you've got some forced induction torque to push the back around with the throttle...

I'll take some pics tomorrow before Cadwell on Wed; or you can just google a silver brz and photoshop the wheels black! Specs are
215 45 R17 Dunlop Sport Maxx RT's - in black. 
Team Dynamics 17*7 Alloys - also in black
Stoptech front pads - they look much like the originals
Super pro bushes. - dark blue
Front roll bar 18mm and rear roll bar 14 mm
BC Coilovers - 5kg/mm alround (not 6kg at the back - although I considered it)  - all bump & rebound set to  SOFTEST of 30 clicks all round :-)
Camber -2* front -1.7* rear
 
Have to say that the eibach roll bars were too stiff across the front axle. There was a lot of understeer and general squeeking from the bushes. In fact after six weeks of day to day duties the front bushes had the restitution and frictional properties of wet haddock. Maybe 25 mm is too much for general road use? I think this is why the bars shifted and grazed the front wishbones. Only a cosmetic graze though and easily touched up though. 

So demanding!

Have to say thank you to Paddy & Ross at A2B for being very patient and installing all this; wheels, tyres, coilovers, pads, roll bars and bushes set up and properly aligned. FINALLY! 2 Degrees negative camber at the front, 1.7 at the rear, standard roll bars, uprated bushes. https://www.facebook.com/atobvehicles?fref=ts
 
Now to see how it all handles 

For a scooby with an OEM setup, check the T hoses from the charged air to the wastegate actuator and the boost control solenoid.
If there's a leak there, it will cause over boosting as this is the boost control mechanism
 
However, doesn't explain why it only happens when cold...

This unit was made for Subaru by DEFI which is why it will be so similar in style. So you should be able to set things like warning levels as well as the peak hold function and data log playback as mentioned above.

Think it just records boost pressure v time. Still its green and flashes at me which is nice

Once you get above 50mph you cannot slow down or it will explode!

You can trail brake just fine with the stock brake setup. The car oversteers easily enough if you trail brake into a corner, using the weight transfer to unload the rear. 

SLJ-tastic!

Would like to a get a little more sideways next. Need room to practice.

Rendering a video of me chasing down an M3. The only excuse for the M3,  it was really really wet!

Go on I dare someone:

Theres an FA20DIT available to buy on ebay £2500. 
 
But its not just a case of dropping in a new engine. 
 
ECU, Wireing, Air Con, Cooling, Power Steering etc etc.
 
Probably more money than it's worth. And a Turbo or SC would produce more power, less money and more reliable. 

Soften rear suspension for better traction???

Sorry, wrong picture.
