Crawford Edition FRS??? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

CAMBAM_6 · 06-22-2013, 10:23 AM

When i was driving home from work 2 days ago i noticed on the big sign at toyota/scion of escondido they had a picture and words saying Crawford Edition FRS now available. Anybody know anything about this???

I think they are doing their second one now. It's a whiteout. I think its just a couple bolt ons and body parts.

Hmm. So does that mean the dealer will let the warranty stand for powertrain??

Will this one overheat also?

Spoke to Kelson there over the last few days (they have a very knowledgeable and courteous team). Yes they offer the same BRZ build for the FRS.

I plan on doing their stage 1 kit first, then go from there (I was told 2 weeks before they get kits replenished, basically chips the car). I don't want to do the complete build, it really is out of my comfort zone (for now lol, I tend to go in baby steps then get out of hand later when I know I want something for sure lol).

this build voids your warranty from what I'm being told by Kelson, and based on the level of work involved, I do agree, it probably voids your warranty. lol

overheating was happening on the streets of willow track (the motortrend report), i'm being told it was a very hot day under extreme conditions, I have no opinion either way, just saying what was described as the cause...

yes they are "finishing up one car up for SOA" now, and mine was in theory was going to be next, but at the risk of sounding like a wimp, I backed out for now lol...

but they will be remapping my computer...apparently an 18hp gain, so with all the rest of the mods I have, hopefully I get a nice collective improvement in overall performance. not "knock your socks off," but quick. I can always add the turbo later..it's tougher to take it out...

All it is is their air/oil separator, K&N air filter, coilovers, wheels/tires, Gymkhana exhaust and the decals. Everything else is stock.

No turbo on this. This is not the crawford car, this is a stock FR-S with an AOS and some suspension changes called a Crawford edition.

No worries. I doubt they could even legally sell it with a Turbo due to emissions laws.
