Stay Crushing FRS Build... it has begun!!
Hey guys just wanted to drop by and say whats up... finally gonna get started on posting pics/updating this thread and all of that good stuff.
Pics will be up later tonight of progress so far and parts that have arrived... needless to say this has been both the most exciting and stressful car build I have decided to take up. I went in head first due to my excitement and youth and almost ended up with a car that is brand new and could have been ruined. This build has almost failed twice and is financially supported only by myself and the sponsors that have decided to hop on board. Post the love/hate/whatever you want... I cant wait for this to finish and to be on the road to SEMA in a week and a half. Before I start posting pics and all of that good stuff Id like to give a shoutout to all the supporters of the build: Rocket Bunny/6666 Customs/TRA Kyoto/Greddy Forgestar Wheels Platinum VIP Phantom AIR Phantom Garage Function Form Toyo Tires Stop Tech Vis Racing JDM Sport Jordan Innovations FA20club.com Mishimoto Battle Version Beatsonic Whitleline M7 Drive Takata ACT Clutch Injen Jimmy Up El_STig Media Partners: Stance Nation Motormavens Drifting.com OMGDrift 1013MM UPDATES WILL BE POSTED LATER TODAY... I hope you guys arent disappointed LETS ADD MORE PICS!!!!!!! suspension is in!!! first set of function form type 2 PRESTON!!! thank you so much for the help with this, you are a beast getting these here on time!!!!!! gotta have a beatsonic sharkfin antenna!!!! seriously the stock antenna looks horrible.. this makes the car look so much better!!! thank you eric and sam!!!!!! forgestar f14 super concave !!!!!!! mine are currently getting powdercoated as we speak... will post pics when i get them toyo and whiteline decided to also help out with the build. went with the toyo t1 sport since the car is a daily driver... the r888 was the original plan but not down for r compounds on a daily driver... just not practical at all. gotta have whiteline sways too, going to run more product from whiteline but they are currently out of stock on the shifter bushing and positive traction kit, with those products combined should get rid of the sloshy feel in the rear and the shifter. Stan and Tom you guys rock!!!! m7 decided to help with my caffeine addiction and help finish this build, thank you so much for fueling my horrible habit Robin and Steph you are rad!!! decided to pull the motor and flat black the whole engine bay, also went with the injen wrinkle black intake to match... such a nice looking piece in there. thank you Paul and Adrian for the help!!! Just as a joke we decided to see how much dish we can fit in the rear... almost 6 inches fits flush Cant forget stoptech!!!! thank you erik for the support on the build, I will be able to stop this beast

This section is dedicated to someone that really went out of their way to make this part of my build happen.
El_STiG went out of his way for me today and rushed to finish my headlights in time for the show and here are some step by step pics of the work he does. amazing work... I really wish he could become a vendor on here... His work speaks for itself... lights look amazing, cant wait to see the tails!!! Last edited by staycrushing; 10-17-2012 at 02:35 AM. |
