Hops Normal's White FR-S
 
I bought my FR-S in July and decided today to start a journal. Ive seen some of the others members stuff and i think this will be a cool way to keep track of what ive done to it and also get some advice along the way.
Still thinking of a name for her but im leaning toward scarlet. This pic was taken at the dealership right before i drove it home.

The only mod i have done currently is the K&N drop in filter.

I plan on eventually (when i get the money) going turbo, i would prefer to get the TRD one so i can have them install it and warranty it. I am trying to not void warranties and still upgrade my FR-S. I currently have about 8200 miles on her.

What plans do you have for it other than a turbo?

And FYI, TRD is making a supercharger not a turbo. ;)

Ya I heard about the super charger but I was hoping they were going to make both. I plan to get a new exhaust, have the advanced keys 104b installed, get a brz spoiler, and do some interior work as well as changing out for some exterior jdw lights. And I might go with the avo Turbo kit now that I know Trd isn't going to make one.

Today i ordered the zeta intake inlet and 6 piece radiator hose set. I also ordered some brz parts so I can't get my advanced keys system installed. I will post pictures after I install everything. Also today i have officaly decided to name her Scarlet.

I'd recommend them. Makes a huge difference. Especially when your backing up in the dark.
