And this thread got stickied! Good job Saskatchewan! Go Go Go!

Cool, Love your car, spotted you at Preston's CDN Tire awhile back. Car sounds amazing too! just wondering what the the 2 kanji beside the 86 mean? & the 1 beside the EMPWR. Thanks!

It's just something generic. The company that does the custom plates uses that by default. Maybe it means baka gaijin or something

I'm running a Motiv test-pipe and T1R 70R cat-back. I also am in love with the sound.

I brought my Motiv Concepts test-pipe, Cusco catch-can and T1R 70R exhaust in through here

Hey! If it's not to much trouble. Could you post a pic of your cusco oil catch can installed ? I've seen a couple different configurations out there and curious how yours was setup

Thanks

I am putting my car in the garage tonight and plan on doing the HID Swap this Friday. Everyone can look forward to some progress shots here, in my journal and also on my instagram if y'all follow me on there (I have gotten more followers from my car than anything else I bet lol)

Hey Rich, At PP. Do you guys do mods for Honda's too? I know it's off topic. Sorry!

We do a lot of stuff man. Our range of import lines is huge, we also have a really awesome local Hondata tuner.

Cool, thank you for the feed back. You know, I drive down 22nd everyday. How did I miss this place? I always thought it was a camera store. But anyways, can't wait to check you guys out, I know you guys are renovating the store right now. This will be my new favorite store to shop for sure!

Oh and how's winter driving with the FR-S going for you?

Edit: Thanks for introducting yourself to this thread. Otherwise it would've took me 2 more years just to find out what Perfomance Plus really is, LOL. I think PP hired the right guy for marketing! Give this man a raise! Yo!

Renovations are a B

The office feels like Baghdad.

Definitely stop in sometime. My name is Rich and I do all the import sales here. I would LOVE to get in touch with the local 86 community here.

and winter driving the FR-S is pretty awesome so far. you have to have discretion but the best part is when you know what you're doing and it's not ridiculous out you can have a ton of fun

I probably picked the wrong winter tires for mine but, ah well, live and learn. they aren't too bad and the price was awesome. for anyone else I recommend going with 215/50 or 205/50 on 17" and get something that isn't a "sport" type winter tire.

[SkAsphalt]

yeah sport winter tires are cool if you spend a ton on them, but other wise I think they are not as grippy as a regular winter tire. I saw someone driving a ultra-marine FRS around Regina yesterday. Made me jealous.

[Jlturner]

I don't know if I will make it the rest of the winter without driving my car, its been maybe 3 weeks since we got our first snowfall and I am already missing the car! No NHL and no FRS will make for a LOOONNNGGG winter lol!

[SkAsphalt]

hahah I hear you! I will be doing some fun laps around my block late tonight when everyone is asleep and I can do some fun slow speed drifts.
