- - Any mods planned? (https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1385)

1. Change the taillights, so it doesn't look so bad. I really hate the taillights =.=
2. Get a Toyota badge
3. Change the name of the car. I'm gonna have to wait for it's name to be debuted at the TMS, or if I can make it a custom name. How does FR-S Ikaros edition sound? =D
4. Probably some new brembo brakes when the stock breaks gets old

Lol, this whole website is assumptions. The car isn't even out yet!
Also I am pretty certain that the parts I listed will be made. They are all big companies and have made parts for a lot of less capable sports cars, they won't miss making parts for the FRS.

The only thing I'm not certain is the RPF1s. Heard rumors about them coming out with 17x9 +35 5x100, but can't confirm if they actually will.

Yes I know they won't make pedals for FRS, they are Honda specific tuner. But have you tried their pedals? I personally love the grip I get with the brake and clutch pedals. I'm sure I can bolt those on the FRS without any major problems or modifications.

Yes I also know 4300k is brighter, but I do like the whiter look with a slight bluish tint with the 6000k. Not everything about the car has to do with racing. Lol :thumbup:

If I were to buy one, pending one exhaust design, I'd do headers back exhaust to get that boxer sound up and singing.

Next, since the tranny is made by Suby iirc, I'd buy a short-shifter with the quickness because stock Suby shifters are usually a sloppy mess.

Finally, an intake and flash, to get the sound out of it as well.

I say to get sound out because I know these won't produce much power like a FI car, but I wouldn't buy this car to be a track terror, instead it would be a commuter.

:word: a lot of fear and anxiety is built up through here lol along with those 'assumptions' :scared0016: just got to take everything with a grain of salt.

Can't forget hope! haha

All of the above!! Come on! Have faith in the Japanese!!

Rain guards if they aren't a factory option

Well that's the plan. I was playing around with the idea of holding off on that until I get a good deal more power in it. Those will be the eventual tires though when I'm able to put down a solid 300-325 rwhp.:burnrubber:

DeBadge (if Scion)
Coilovers (and lower about 1.5")
Alignment
Exhaust (TRD)

In that order

I have always wanted some Enkei NT03+Ms on my subaru. Maybe I'll put em on my BRZ:

Ohhh. so sexy. There was a set of these in person at my local tuner shop for several years. Every time I would see them in person, they'd look even sexier.

wheel then lower the suspension

Number one for me will be variable geometry intake manifold and headers a close second.

you know the carbon fiber hood wont save any weight, right?
