New Member & have question? Read here first!

New member and have a question you wanna ask? Well, you're looking at the right thread! I made simple FAQ and quick reference thread to go to.

As for senior members, if you have any other FAQ you want to add or other good resource threads, LMK and I'll add it.

FAQ


1.
Q: Is FRS/BRZ fast? / Can FRS/BRZ beat *insert a car*?
A: Depends on "who" drive the car & where they race.

2.
Q: Does Cricket ever go away?
A: There's a lot of things been done, said & myth, but simply put it "No"

3.
Q: Can I plastidip *insert a part*?
A: It's your car, do whatever you want.

4.
Q: Can I wrap my car to *insert a color/s*
A: Again, it's your car, do whatever you want.

5.
Q: Is *insert a wheel* fit my car?
A: Check Wheels Directory or Fitment Calculator. You thought about it, someone prob done it.

6.
Q: Which mods give me most power?
A: FI or engine swap.

7.
Q: Can I drive FRS/BRZ in the winter/snow.
A: Stock tires, no. Snow tires (with/without studs) & don't drive like an idiot, yes.

8.
Q: Why FRS/BRZ paint sucks.
A: Government cracking down on VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) the weaker the paint on new cars is going to get... so take care of the paint!

9.
Q: I have *insert amount of money*, which mods should I buy?
A: There's no one answer to this. It's all comes down to WHAT YOU ARE YOU EXPECTING FROM THIS CAR OR WHAT'S YOUR GOAL FROM THIS CAR. Best, check Member Journals. They're good resource and have a lot of information or check this thread

10.
Q: MT or AT which is better?
A: Both, buy one that fit your needs... or just read here: AT or MT?

11.
Q: I hear a strange electric motor sound after I shut off my car
A: This is a fuel pump leak test and is perfectly normal. See thread

12.
Q: Winter is coming and I want to store my car. How can I do this?
A: There are several proper way of storing your car. Read here: Basic Storage

13.
Q: My windows froze and now they won't work. What can I do?
A: Read your manual. There's a step by step you're should be doing. (Reference thread here)

14.
Q: Where can I find part numbers?
A. You can find it here in this thread plus you can download the PDF: Parts List

15.
Q: Why won't my trunk open with the fob or interior button?
A: Check the trunk lock button on the driver side of the trunk.

16.
Q: Why does my passenger seatbelt warning keep going off with the smallest thing on my seat?
A: It is not pressure sensitive. Anything with a battery (i.e. cell phones) or materials with a high moisture level (i.e. groceries) may trigger the air bag warning light.

17.
Q: Which car cover is good.
A: Choose one - Covercraft Evolution, Covercraft Noah, Rain-x, Touchless Car Cover, Weathershield HP, Coverking or you can read here
