Have you considered a different temp for your HIDs?

We have gunsmoke film on our FRS and use 6000ks and the output is fantastic

Had my FRS in for the first routine maintenance and TRD Intake installed. Intake does seem to have made a difference, mostly in throttle response, which seems more responsive now. I was also supposed to get the rear spoiler installed, but they sent the wrong color, so have to wait for them to re-order.

Side note: Before I even mentioned it, the guy taking in my car at the dealership asked about engine chirping. I said I had experienced it and he put it down to have the fuel pump replaced. So far no chirps, remains to be seen if it comes back.

Would love to see some pictures as I am doing the same next spring. Thanks

Track weekend at Summit Point Shenandoah with BMW CCA. The FR-S was in its element on a tight, technical track. Also met lots of nice folks who drive BMW's and were interested in the FR-S. I think/hope I represented us well, both on-track and in the pits. Fun times, great weekend.

Not to make you regret buying these at all, but they dust like a MOFO. Every 3 days i have to wipe down or it looks like i have silver wheels in rear and bronze in front.

Great pads tho ^_^

BTW you were right about brake dust haha. The stoptech pads dusted like crazy out there, especially the fronts. But I only got mild pad fade and did not boil my fluid, so I'm happy with Stoptech.

Agreed. It's starting to get a bit silly.

Over the weekend I finished installing all the LED Lighting I got, I am just waiting on my Orange Rear Turn Signal LED's and my DRL LED's then its complete!

I also got my 5000k HID's installed, slim ballasts. Love these lights I have the same ones in my Vette and soon enough my Wife's new G8.

I also got a chance to finish the Exhaust and Install my Lowering Springs!

I am hoping this week to have my Rota Slipstreams on, Unichip Tuner and the rear turn signal LED's in. Then its time to buy a Header and start looking into the E85 conversion!

haha I would have a full coat of brown very fast. They stop well so I guess that's the trade off :P
