Yeah it had suspension mods and actually felt A LOT like the FRS. Just a nicer roomier interior. I really hope Honda brings it back, I'll be the first 1 in line.

Nice choice on wheels! I'm thinking of going with XXR's for DD and get a pair of RPF1s for the track. What tires are you running?

El cheapo Milestars in 225/40. After having them for like a month I may never buy another brand every again though. $64 shipped brand new believe it or not and they're actually quite good!

Great looking car, I wanted to see if your wheels are the 33mm offset?

JakeG 02-17-2014 11:37 PM

wheels look siiiiiiick

Yes they are et33 all around. The fronts poke just barely and the rears are tucked just barely. Its a good setup I just wish I'd went a little lower. In due time :)

What size tires are you running with your wheels? I think the ride height is perfect!

BlueDubbinTDI 02-22-2014 07:57 AM

225/40's. A little stretch but nothing many people would even notice. I do wish Ide gone 235's but its all good

BlueDubbinTDI 03-07-2014 09:09 PM

Added H&R 5mm spacers to the rear this afternoon. The rear really needed it to offset the slight poke in the front. I'm happy even though the guys at the shop said its no longer hub centric back there but they said since its only 5mm it'll be fine.

nice! those wheels look so good on this car.

Thanks yeah they're are pretty darn good value. I have faux TRD center caps for them sitting around but I can't figure out how to make them stay in. They fit perfectly into the 62mm but nothing to lock it in. Does anyone know of a black sticky sealant that would be strong enough to keep them in but still be removable?

ericmpena 03-10-2014 11:54 PM

Care to post some more pics! I was glancing through pictures and thought, "Damn, that's a nice stance." Didn't even realize it was your ride! lol. I see what you mean about the 5mm spacer in the rear. You also can barely even notice the poke up front.
I'd love to see more pics!

Don't. It took me $100 worth of fabrication to get it to fit. Plus its not 2.5" its 2.75" I think. Not at all worth the headache. Sounds mean though lol.

It is the full catback. There are 3 sound clips on YouTube already. It's deep throaty and loud just like the videos. It's like a Greddy SP Elite on steroids.

Those are just 4" tips. Maybe I called the exhaust the wrong thing I'm talking about the dual canister catback they sell.

Lithium 05-09-2014 01:41 AM

Why!? Can you link a video to your cat back?

Lookin to trade the car sometime this year. Might as well start now. I'll try but really it sounds like the YouTube videos, just with less drone and decibels.

I will give you 200 bucks for the cat back. I will cover shipping as well.

That's what I thought, I had seen those for sale. How was the fitment for the FR-S? Any additional photos? Thanks
