wow, very jealous.

After I got my BRZ, I took a look at my tool set and realized... it's time for an upgrade. My 54 piece set isn't going to cut it anymore. Time to save up for a nice set of crafstman wrenches and tool box for the garage.

Don't forget, Harbor Freight Tools have lots and lots of industrial grade tools on the cheap

I've been "surviving" on harbor freight tools for the past few years. A few of them are great- breaker bar for 9 bucks? heck yeah- but I think I could use a real tool set that will last me the rest of my life, so I don't haveto re-buy all the harbor freight junk that breaks on me every few years.

Well I have a crap-load of tools, too, so if any of you guys ever need some help or a place to work on your beast then just let me know. More than happy to assist.

Definitely man. I ordered some extra suspension goodies so I can have them sitting around for other BRZ/FR-S owners when they want to lower their car. I'll post more about that when the parts actually arrive.

Yeah, that would be cool. I'm always down for some cool photos. I'll be around all week next week, feel free to give me a shout. Just so you know, I'll need the lights overnight so they can cure properly... so plan to either bring me just the lights, or prepare to leave your car overnight.

You have no freakin' idea how JEALOUS I am for the amount of space that man cave of yours has!

Love your car btw!

Oh, I kinda notice a typo in your sig too; you put down "2003 Scion FR-S" I think you meant 2013.
