Hey guys! I know I've posted this a few times before but you might want to check out http://www.oksc.org/. It's a Subaru owners forum based in Oklahoma, it's full of good guys who have been around Subarus for a long time. There is a ton of knowledge there and several regular meets in OKC and Tulsa that you guys could join in on.

Pm me if you're down.

FR-S specifically?

P.S. It feels like the can is still pretty full if you want what's left of the Red. Definitely seems like enough to do another set(to me at least). Sadly though the clear coat is a two-part that is only good for 24hrs after you mix it.

Looks like it turned out pretty good to me! I have some vinyl overlays that I haven't put on the car yet. I wanna see how that goes before painting it but I'm hesitant to put it on myself because I know I'll mess it up. Anyone know of a good place that'll install overlays over the tail lights? A friend told me Superior Tint would do it but I'd like a couple more options just in case.

Haha I was disappointed with that too. Looks like he messed up his 1-2 shifts, and I bet he was reluctant to clutch dump at 5k rpm like the magazines do for the best times haha. Car looked great though! And those wheels are pricey.
Btw, what exhaust do you have on your car? Looks cool.

I noticed that exhaust as well, and am interested to know.

nubbster, it was one of the first exhaust that came out for the twins, i got it from sirmc back when he got it to test it out, in the end he ended up trading his frs into a wrx.

to mo8ius and nubbster, the brand is ISIS. its a pretty good exhaust, it has a deep tone to it @ start up and especially when i rev it up. best part, there is no drone @ all.

Got my car back today! Happy to have it back. I had Audio Advice put in a sub, amp and head unit. Turned out nice...

Yep, saw a new silver FR-S (I think) with a fresh dealer tag on it today. Guy totally spotted me scoping him out, as did I him.

meow_mix · 04-23-2013, 12:41 AM

And talked to a guy in north OKC with a black FRS. Said he had his car for 2 weeks and he worked at a Scion dealership.

Life kind of sucks for me right now until the semester ends. After that: Meet time.

meow_mix · 04-26-2013, 01:20 AM

Ooohhh, very nice sub setup there.

By the way, here's a car show in OKC you guys might want to hit up just to check other cars out. I unfortunately can't make it because I have to work but I went last year and there were some cool cars there. (Mostly muscle, but still fun).

TFCU’s 13th Annual Miracle Car Show will be held Saturday, April 27, at the credit union’s operations center located at 4140 W. I-40. The event starts at 9:00 a.m.and goes until 3:00 p.m. All proceeds from this popular event benefit Children’s Miracle Network.

Pretty sure it's too late to register, but it's worth checking out if you're nearby.

My dad and a bunch of his Cobra buddies will be there... quite a few of them.

Went a couple of years ago. You won't win anything there unless you have an old car. Nice charity though.

I guess last year they started a sports compact category. This will be their second year doing it.
