im quoting you again because i finally got to drive at night with this,

the mirror deff helps with glare, IMO it cuts it down easily 50%
had a big truck up behind me today, lights aimed right in the car, was looking right in the view of his lights and it didnt bother me

Installed my ST coilovers over the weekend, so happy with the results. Did a lot of searching around the forums to see how guys were setting their's up so I didn't have to keep lifting the car up and down to find the right height. Can't thank @FRS-Ski enough for helping, couldn't have done it without him. And thanks @OAKOS Automotive for my lovely rpf1's.

Not today, but yesterday, I installed my TRD front strut tower brace. I then took it for a spirited drive, with my daughter and her friend as passengers (age 16).

The car, the girls, and I all agree that the drive was fun.

I saw my old baby today.. traded my 2013 a few months back. Can only be one Argento with the TOM's with modified Turns as Tails and the LED back up / brake, in this area anyway. Checked the dealers site and she is sold ... I hope you have as much fun as I did.

I changed out the clutch slave cylinder & adjusted the pedal height this afternoon, man you Guys with left hand drive have the pedal adjustment easy......


It makes a big difference to the clutch feel & engagement, thanks Guys :-)

I needed a suspension I was getting too old and broken for the FRS, And the extra HP and AWD doesn't hurt either...
