DevArenCN's FR-S Build Journal
 

Hi, guys and gals
Finally I'm able to do a build journal, which is one thing I always wanted to do. The car, which I'm lucky enough to have, is a 2013 Scion FR-S, 2nd hand, with 33000 miles when I got it.

The car performs really well on track, autox, and daily driven. There're several parts that is going in this car in a couple of days, such as the Jackson Racing dual radiator/oil cooler, ARK Performance R-Spec test pipe, as well as new oil temp gauge. I want to thank @NotSoJDM for helping me with my car from the start, and also Alex( not sure if he's on here, his instagram is @Moo.cao) and CarDrugs.com for getting those photos. Also I'm fortunate enough to be in the NC86.CLUB, I've only been in this country for about 8 months or so and they made me feel like home.

I'll continue to improve the stability of this car on the track, keep it cool, and not do anything to crazy about it until I can get another car. Currently I'm running autox with THSCC, and running tracks like NCCAR, VIR and CMP. Hopefully I'll be able to run on Road Atlanta this year. I'm a novice driver, which means the car is already so much better than me. Next step is to improve myself trying to get the best out of this car.

I'll try to do a post on the Jackson Racing oil cooler and the ARK test pipe. Keep posted.

Here're some pics installing the coil overs.
