Looking good pare!

thankss pare :thumbsup:

Hows the exhaust? Been thinking of getting the same ones...

its awesome. i love the sound. when u get one, dont panic if its quiet. it gets louder about 600-1000 miles :thumbsup:

Where did u get the center plate, I'd love one just like it.

Center plate? Did u mean the 86 plate? I got it from ebay.

Nice car bro! FireStorm FTW!

Nice mods pre... Astig!!!

Sexy! How much did your Katzkin seats cost (including installation)? I'm thinking of getting the front seats done too!

thankss pare :thumbsup:

thankss:thumbsup:
i forgot. dealer installed it and they added on the finance. i will double check that and i let u know how much.

Car looks awesome! Love your mod list =)

Love the look brotha! Thanks for the mention on the mods list :thumbsup:

Your car looks AWESOME! Just wondering how you rebadge FRS? I am afraid scratch the paint I know it is only glue on.

thanksss :)

thankss brotha! :)

thankss :)

i used heat gun, then use a dental floss to pull it out lol. then use the heat gun again for the adhesive left out, then use ur finger to remove the adhesivess. make sure its not too hot before u touch it lol

those seats.. I love em... Jelly... are the back seats leather to?

ohh yesss :thumbsup:

Now that's a nice clean, perfectly modded car! Love it!

*UPDATED 1st Post*

My Custom Plate *86 FRS*

http://i47.tinypic.com/oiy93b.jpg

is that circled 86 part of the plate?

No. Its a die cut vinyl. Actually they messed up my plate. Thats supposed to be centered. So i just put that 86 vinyl cut just to occupy the space :)

Looking good! Choice mods :)

My CEL came on @ 2341 miles. brought it to the dealer for diagnose. waited for atleast an hour, service advisor said that it was related to Relay Censor Box.

anybody has this issue?

they said need to order the parts and parts its not in the country. my baby is stuck at the dealer for 5 days ugh!! :sigh: rental car for now :mad0260:

ahhh that sucks man .....

My favorite mod is the rosary hanging on the rear-view! :D Other than the Philippine flag or the 3 stars and a sun sticker, nothing screams Filipino more than the rosary on the rear view!:party0030:

i know :( they said it was no biggie and its drivable just the relay censor box malfunctiong. but just to be safe they rather keep the car. but stilllll i miss my baby already lol

ohh lol u notice that. dont like the flag on the car.

FiveAxis Aero Kit Update :)

Scheduled to be shipped by tomorrow 3 pm.

so excited :drool:

Oh yeah, rocking the same mod, lol. I call mine my G[od]-meter, you can gauge how many g's you're pulling by the angle of it ;)

Finally got my Car back from CEL
 

3days on the dealer. thank god no mechanical issue

CODE: P0031, P0037 (Heater Circuit Malfunction)

http://i46.tinypic.com/368hw.jpg

I think that's the first time I've ever seen those codes...hopefully you'll never see any kind of cel on this car EVER again...

yea lol. hope this would be the 1st and last CEL on my car

dude, loving the seats...

whered you get this plate? couldnt find it on ebay.

http://i50.tinypic.com/16jkl0n.jpg

Thanks :)
Its in ebay. But here's their website diodedynamics.com

Hey OP, I currently have an '11 tC and want to sell/trade for an Fr-s. Any advice?

Well im not really sure ur status in the car. Trading my tC its kinda wrong move for me. Coz evry year they lower ur car value prior to ur KBB. It might give u an upside down if ur tC still on finance. Then they add that to your frS finance stuff like that. I suggest do private selling with ur tC.

My tC is paid off completely so no issues there. I'll probably stay away from trading and try to private sell it. It only has 17k miles on it, I could probably get 18-18.5 for it. (Hopefully) Beautiful car by the way, I want a firestorm as well. Thanks for the feedback!

oh nice. yea dont trade. but i mean if u have the $$$$ just trade it in then pay it off monthly the rest of the finance LOL. no problem :) thanks btw. and goodluck, hope u get ur FRS soon :)

switch the rental car toyota key cover, on mine. Dealer let me lol
