Good quality, in my opinion overall the entire aluminium body feels a little stronger and sturdier than my oem which is leaking because of external damage caused by most likely stone chips. Comes with dryer and o-ring included which makes the job faster and easier not having to think about buying additional parts. It also comes in a very nice glossy black finish which I like. Unfortunately my old pressure line screws were so old one of then broke and got stuck inside the condenser, tried everything all day to get it out but eventually gave up and ordered another one because it’s cheap and got it even cheaper with the autodoc bonus system. I’m not sure about BRZ but if you get this for a 86 I recommend buying some cheap universal aluminium front grille net with smaller holes and mount behind the oem grille for extra protection from things like stone chips because from what I’ve seen and heard almost every 86 owner with an AC problem have a leaking condenser and when toyota did a troubleshooting at my latest maintanance they found the leak and said it was damaged by something external, most likely stone chips flying through the big grille holes. When I took my old condenser out a pretty big chuck of the fins were missing at the bottom half because of so much objects flying through it throughout the years so adding some extra protection that doesn’t affect or restricting the airflow should help make your new condenser last a lot longer than they seem to do out of the factory.

held the vacuum on the machine, but once gas was injected and car ran with AC on the condenser popped. not very good quality.
