It's been a long time since I've updated this journal!

I've added a lot of mods since then, and my FR-S has undergone some drastic changes...


Newest mods:

Bride Japan Red Seats
Voltex Type II CF Wing (1650MM Span) w/ extended risers
Takata 4 Point harnesses
Agency Power Harness Bar

Raceseng 86er Red Shift Knob
Gram Light 57DR Wheels 18x9.5 +38 Squared (on order)
Valenti Reverse Light Bar
Crystal Eye Smoked Tail Lights
Rear Seat Delete
Password:JDM Front 3 Piece Splitter (Not installed yet)
Blitz Intake (Looks AWESOME!)
More I can't even think of at this point....

Here's just a few photos, however we are doing a photoshoot to really show off the new mods soon. Stay tuned... :thumbsup:

Beautiful car!

Carbon fiber looks so nice with asphalt grey. :thumbup:

Jeeez. Crazy car guys, amazing work. That wing is large and in charge. I'd rather see a rocketbunny style wing (version 1, not v2) but overall I think it fits the car's personality.

Love the matching side & hood vents.

Thanks for the love guys, we've been very busy building up our car to be unique; we've received a lot of compliments, especially from people noting that we made it look like this WITHOUT going the route of a rocketbunny kit!

We appreciate the continued support from everyone, it's fans like YOU that drive our passion to keep building this beauty into something more!

On a side note, we just ordered our @FA20club tune (pump gas + e85 fuel maps) a few minutes ago. We are eager to receive everything and throw this beast on a dyno once we slap the new Gram Lights 57DR wheels on....our hope is to close in on 200whp NA! Wish us luck folks!

Hey now! I'm not saying you should go Rocketbunny. I'm just saying I think the Rocketbunny Wing would look good on this car.

Edit for clarity: I'm also saying I think you guys made a great choice to be unique and that I think it fits your build as well if not better than Rocketbunny does.

Haha, I get what you're saying :)

Thanks for the kind words! We really appreciate the support we receive in regards to our FR-S build. It's different, but it's not the mainstream, same run-of-the-mill build that a lot of other owners run. We like being different! :burnrubber:

How do you guys like those borla headers?

I really, really enjoy them. They've been on for about 4 months plus now, and I've had nothing but a great experience with them. The first set I received did have a slight issue (there was a rattle coming from one of the flex pipes, turned out to be a bad weld), Borla warrantied them right away no questions asked and sent me a brand new set free of charge within a few days! Was extremely pleased with the quality of the new set, as well as the superb customer service on Borla's end. Haven't had an issue since...the massive torque dip we all experience running a stock setup is drastically reduced thanks to these headers, despite the lack of a tune!

We just purchased a tune from @FA20club , and should be receiving it shortly. They hooked us up with a great deal...we have a 91 pump gas map as well as an E85 map on the way! These headers, as well as all of our other bolt on parts, should really kick out some excellent gains once our 'BabyLFA' is tuned and dialed in...we expect to push out around 200whp+ NA when running e85! Guess only time will tell... :D

We are parting out our "BabyLFA" FR-S build at this thread. A lot of the parts are already gone...come grab what you're interested in before it's too late. Click here:

We just wanted to let everyone know that we have officially traded in our FR-S for a 2014 Subaru WRX STi...with that said, we will NOT be dropping support at all for the FT86 platform, and we will still be developing, selling, and servicing our parts and products for the FT86 platform!! Thanks for all the love you guys have shown us so far, and we hope to continue to earn your business and provide products you love :)

What did you use to black out the 86 piston badges on the sides of the car?
