We should start a pool though as to how long before somebody comes on and (seriously) says "my car makes a chirping noise is it the crickets thing?"

It's weird in all the FRS/brz I've driven I've either not noticed or totally forgot about it unless I focused on it or was in a drive thru listening for it I feel this is a massive non issue the car makes other noises everyone ignores why not this?

I haven't hit 400 yet. Curious what it will sound like. Unless im just use to it. My scion xb makes a lot of noise. which is common.Not sure how much toyota came in to play with the Subaru engine.

I'm getting married in PR this January. I'll miss my crickets back in Boston but it will be comforting that their cousins won't be far away while I'm down there

Toyota developed the D-4S fuel system that is on the FA20.

The crickets are very much a toyo result, ha

Burger king's French fry oil or chick-fil-a? I remember reading somewhere to stay away from McDonalds-1 and to use 100% vegetable oil instead of lard.

Crickets took a vacation along with my previous tankful of Puma 93... They dissappeared with Shell 91 fill-up.
