Missourifornian's Scion FR-S

[6-Shift]

Welcome to my build thread. Car was purchased in december 2012. Has been through one engine @35,000 miles because of heat. Other than that, car has slowly evolved from a normal daily driver to a more serious performance car. March 2016 I entered in my first drift event; this will be marked as either the worst or best decision I've made in this car's life.... Mods are listed below, there's about 2 years of stuff missing, but from now (oct 2017) I'll try to keep this thread updated. If you have any questions, PM me!

Car as of Fall 2015:



Car as of Spring 2016, featuring Corvette Sawblades. I miss these wheels, with 225/45/17's they fit perfectly.


Other wheels I had in 2016, some CE28N knock offs.

Cool car! Have you joined our KC group? https://www.facebook.com/groups/452909128083343/

I've seen some of our members with Five Axis wheels but none with the kit yet. I have yet to see one in person. From those pics you posted, it would look great in that color.

Yeah I have! I have yet to see another FR-S or BR-Z driving around in the Kansas City area though

@Missourifornian you've got cool stuff planned!

Speaking of tailpipe colors, GReddy USA hit the street last December (wow only a year ago!) in a black car with titanium tips. Link to thread. I think it looked rad.

I remember drooling over this car when images started popping up Glad to finally have my own though, it's like significant others: while looking can be fun, there's nothing better than coming home to your own personal perfection every night I'm talking about my girlfriend I swear.....I'm not in love with my car or anything....hehe

This is why you never buy a rental car.

Another post with zero pics, but I'm currently salivating to return home and clay bar/wax my car. I arrive in Kansas City at 11:20 on the 21st, will be home by 1 or so, so I have all day to clean I'll be doing a full wash (even though I handwashed it before I left), a full clay bar treatment, and a complete wax job (including taping off, something I've previously been too lazy to do.) I'm planning on meeting up with some other scion guys in the KCK area on the 22nd and I want my baby to be pretty

So I decided to put everything I want into my cart on FT-86speedfactory.com...here's the current total:

Update: Just ordered a Perrin Shorty antenna, magnetic drain plug, Because Race Car sticker and FT-86 Speed Factory from FT-86 Speed Factory Finally bought SOMETHING for the car, I can't wait to get home and install/ place the new stuff!

edit: the drain plug isn't going on until my first oil change, which will probably be at 1000 miles and/or summer.
