Unsustainable's Raven FR-S
So I picked up my FR-S in November last year and since then I've been having a blast . I found this forum in January and since then I have probably jumped on it at least twice a day every day. So many helpful, knowledgeable, and awesome fellow owners. Hopefully i can make it to one of the meets in Irvine one day to actually see another FR-S or BRZ. I've only ever seen 1 other FR-S on the road around here.
I thought I would share some pictures of my FR-S. It's still completely stock at the moment since i've been busy with school and stuff, but i've ordered a few parts that i'll list below as well as a long wishlist for the future. I'll update my thread as I get my stuff and install it. Pictures taken by my photographer friend Probably should have taken the parking pass off. Oh well. Installed: -Perrin Catback Exhaust Non-resonated (thanks teamczp) -Center Console Plaque (yospeed) -Five Axis AD rear spoiler (Tustin Scion believe it or not) -Beatsonic Sharkfin antenna (FT86speedfactory) -Cusco front and rear strut braces with MC brace (genome tuning) -Crystal Smoke side markers -Fog Lights -Rebadged -Door sill garnishes -TRD Intake Incoming: Greddy CF Hood damper kit Wishlist: -Enkei Raijin or M52 w/ Ventus V12 225/40 (this has been the hardest decision of the year) -KW V3 or Fortune auto 500 coilovers -HID kit -LEDs for DRL, license plate, side markers -BRZ fender garnishes Last edited by Unsustainable; 05-24-2013 at 05:30 AM. |

Perrin Catback exhaust installed! I was tempted to just pay a shop for the install since they didn't charge much, but I ended up doing it with a friend in an afternoon. Damn those hangers are annoying, but besides that, it was pretty simple. I highly recommend you do it yourself if you're curious about how your car works.
In the end, GREAT SUCCESS (hopefully no leaks)! It sounds and looks awesome! I'll have a video up later because I know i was looking everywhere for them when I was trying to get an exhaust. Not as clean as my original post pics, but I couldn't wait to share lol. Clean car pics tomorrow after a wash. -Unsustainable Last edited by Unsustainable; 05-24-2013 at 05:17 AM. |

Cusco strut tower braces have arrived!
Here is the front bar installed: and the rear one: Pic of the master cylinder brace: The bars look awesome in my opinion. I like the blue color it throws in the engine bay and the trunk. As for feel when driving, i feel way less lateral Gs when turning sharply. Although I couldn't do much testing during heavy traffic times at the moment. Could be part the bars, part placebo but i'm happy and it looks sweet with the polished look. I feel like it does what its suppose to. Thanks to @genometuning for the bars. Next up, Wheels!

Got my smoke side markers in the mail today woohoo!
Installed: Installation was pretty easy once you see where you're suppose to press the clip in to pop out the original marker. Light on: Comparison: I like it much better than the orange marker. It isn't flush like the orange one but that's not a big issue for me. |

Where'd you get the side markers, those look even better than the JDM ones!
