bump for a few updates...
still waiting on my coilovers to get installed, too much b.s. going on right now. here are some better pics: http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/f...psaecf12f8.jpg a little more with the old/new theme outside the shop where my bunny is being built. http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/f...psd784393f.jpg |
got some more parts...
flaps are already on, but I am waiting till Wednesday to put the arms on at the same time as the coils and alignment. http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/f...ps8045c93f.jpg |
Which intake from FA20 Club were you not satisfied with?

Is that their COld Air Intake with the K&N filter?
|
the only one they make.

Coilovers are on....
[ame="http://vimeo.com/63274591"]2013 Scion FR-S Yonaka Coilover Install on Vimeo[/ame] before: http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/f...psaecf12f8.jpg after: http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/f...ps674040df.jpg I also put a set of Spc lower arms on.... one wasn't up to snuff, but I talked to spc today and they are taking care of it. The adjustment tabs are barely welded on, needless to say one broke off leading to a very expensive alignment.:bonk: |
here are pics of the wheels as they sit. I have been getting a lot of questions on the offset and fitment.
http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/f...psda36023b.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/f...psbbdce416.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/f...ps3f65f493.jpg I should probably try to fit a set of 225/45/16 or some 215/45/16 tires to avoid possible rubbing under hard driving conditions. |
so what are your impressions now with the fixed SPC lower arms?
|
How is it driving 16's vs. 17's? It looks damn good with 16's

Today I finally got around to putting the amsoil in the tranny and diff.
the stock noise generator fitting works great for filling the tranny. Attached to a piece of hose from the engine bay and pressed into the trans it makes for an easy one man job. As for filling the diff an old dish soap bottle makes for a great solution to filling the diff. |
|
I have to say. For me the wheels looks a litle small(for my taste), I think the retro look works so well with the car. Nice wheel choice

Tires so meaty
|
I actually like how these look. Nice proportions and they fill out the wheel well. Not some pencil thin sidewalls on oversized rims, that is so 2012.
|
I've been thinking about these wheels or a similar look. Either this or something like the te37.
It looks great. The tires are probably a little cheaper too. |

I did mean that as compliment. I can appreciate peoples different styles with have to be in love with them. I was also thinking of a retro wheel for mine. Just maybe and inch or two bigger. I look forward to your updates. :thumbup:

Nice man, I'm also currently building a MK1 race car, Scirocco to be exact :respect:
Currently awaiting the final wiring wrap up and what not (16v swap with VW Motorsport CIS basic and a knock sensing ignition from a later GTI) |
