Hi Nor Cal. New member here.
Hi all. Got my FRS in Jan 15. Love the car. I'm old school, I have kids that are almost 30. First thing I did was the rear seat delete to fix that engineering problem, that and rebadge Toyota. My track days are probably all behind me, so TRD springs and sway bars make it a nice street car with 18x8 Yoshihara rims and pilot ss tires. I drive Bear Creek, hwy 9, etc. a couple times a week. I have an OFT and have a custom tune done by Shiv, runs real nice now, but Wednesday it goes to Elite to have the Jacson Racing system with oil cooler installed. I was a Porsche guy for years, still have a 911 in the garage, but sure have had a ton of fun with the 86.
A few weeks ago I happened to see some of you guys in La Honda. You drove by while I was having a beer at Apple Jacks. Anyway, good to be here now. |
Welcome aboard! Nice setup. Track days are behind you except your car is definitely track ready by the sound of it!

Thanks, I also have the TRD cat back. My rotors are from some Australian company, forget the name, gold centers, slotted and drilled with Ferodo pads, braided lines, and Perrin master cylinder brace. I have a cf driveshaft I need to install. I love the TRD short shifter. Like I said, I am having a lot of fun with this car! That is why my user name is Sapphireho. My wife calls the car Sapphire, and she says it must be my "ho" since I spend more on it than her!
I have read on the board that they auto cross at crows. I remember when we first started using crows in the 80s in the Porsche club and SCCA. I just remember a tire eater. I might do Sears and Laguna again, would be fun. Last time I was on them was 1992 in my 1977 911s Targa. Wow I sound old! |
welcome and hope to see you on one of our group drives. We plan to have lots of fun weekend drives this summer! And if you haven't got plans for June 11... you do now! Come out to our Summer Kickoff meet to see what everyone else is doing with their cars, and meet the NorCal community in person. :)
PS. I also have the Jackson Racing supercharger, also installed and tuned by Elite. ;) |
WELCOME TO THE CLUB! WELCOME TO THE CLUB!
