Entry level engineers seem to have a proclivity for the twins, but all in good taste. Lockheed is a great employer, congrats on your new purchase.

Congratulations on finishing your schooling, getting the right car, and your future employment with a really good company to work for.

The twins being the FR-S/BRZ?

And thank you everyone! It's been a blast driving it around. Thats all I want to do, I can't focus on my last few exams just because I find excuses to drive around now xD.

Welcome to the forums! :thumbup:

Just replace stock headlights with Winjet headlights. See the link below;

Fellow Yellow Jacket here! Computational Media '11

I was ECE as well, but switched when I discovered my true passion. ;)

Congrats on graduating! That school isn't easy. Give yourself a pat on the back for all the all-nighters you had to pull. :clap:

I know plenty of GT alum that have gone the GT86 route -- I'm still actively searching for mine... :)

Hope to see you around campus!

I thought about it but i didn't like the quality especially since the LED strips are not as bright and they shut off when you put your low beams on, I want to use all original toyota OEM parts anyway

I graduated in Computer Science last year, but I got rejected by all the defense companies here, and still jobless and FRS-less :thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown:

Oh well, kudos to you lol :cheers:. Living my dream.

Haha, are you still hanging around campus now?! I still have two more classes left and I'm currently pulling an all nighter (because mainly I just drove around my new car yesterday and didnt feel like studying).

and @BANGER, I got lucky. Perfect opportunities at the perfect time. I'm sure you'll be living your dream soon enough :D.

Yup. I work out of Tech Square, you'll catch me around in a silver MKV GTI while I search for my whiteout GT86!

So you are saying I'm going to have to compete with you for my parking spot? I've only noticed one other FR-S/BRZ in the parking lot here and that was just in the last month (mine is 10 series, other one was dark gray).

Congrats on the car, graduation, and the job. Waiting for the job offer is definitely the most stressful thing with graduating.

Hmm, I've seen a Lava FRS at the CRC parking, I see a white one as well there/around the area.

I haven't seen another 10 series around campus.

Where do you park? I rotate between the CRC and Klaus (pre-8am), I have a temp parking permit and they never check/give me a ticket if I stay in Klaus lol.

ALSO, Phantasy Star Online Ranger?! Is that what your name comes from lol?

Originally meant the Lockheed lot, but GT too I guess. I'm going there part-time for my master's (online this semester since nothing was available on-campus in the late afternoon). Last spring I parked in the pre-pay lot since it was the cheapest. Now that they jacked up the price I park in the lot across the street from health services and the gym. Never noticed another FR-S/BRZ on campus, but I'm only ever there for one class period every other day when I am taking a class on-campus.

Yup. Played that game a ton.
