Rev Works Built - Hot Lava FR-S aka "Scarlet" On CCW's
Well let me just start by saying that our customer, @orlfrs86 has been a huge supporter and valued part of the Rev Works Team! thanks for letting us be a part of this build.
So this FR-S came to us with 49 miles on the odometer. It was literally driven from the dealership lot, to our shop and dropped off with us. When Eduardo showed up with this brand new FR-S, we knew he had some big plans for the car. We sat down and and started discussing the plans for the car and direction he wanted to take it. At first he wanted to turn this into a full on track car, but as he currently owns an STi that we have already begun turning into a track star, he decided he wanted a car that would do well at car shows, but could also kill it around an autoX course. So after much deciding and part searching we found the perfect parts to suit Eduardo's needs. Here is a current Mod list of whats been done to the car: Engine/Power
Suspension/brakes
Wheels & Tires
Interior/Exterior
So this is how the car showed up to us. 100% Bone stock! https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...73537960_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...35080422_n.jpg Our first steps to making this car a little more awesome was to order all the parts. So we started gathering everything together. Needless to say, we wasted no time! Injen Intake https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...09180916_n.jpg Some Hotchkis Goodies in the form of Strut bars and Swaybars (Front and Rear), to help the stability of the car. https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...34657483_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...61898763_n.jpg Next the Cusco control arms. These helped out a lot when it came to getting the alignment dialed in for the car. I highly recommend these arms, for the person looking to get their camber on point! https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...34552167_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...47948887_n.jpg All these handling parts would be useless though without some stopping power, so we opted for a set of Hawk HPS front and rear pads and Stoptech Stainless steel lines. This combo would be a great daily driver setup as they are not super aggressive or overly noisy, yet would still give him plenty of bite on the autox course. https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...04019497_n.jpg https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...28121276_n.jpg Next up were the Stance Coilovers. These helped us get the ride height right where we wanted, along with planting the car to the road. With the addition of both the Sway bars, strut bars, and coilovers, this car has virtually ZERO body roll! https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot..._7330106_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...19744881_n.jpg A nice shot of the camber plates that come standard on all Stance coilovers! https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...41406704_n.jpg And a shot of us applying anti-seize to the coilovers. We do this on every coilover we install and recommend it to everyone who installs coilovers. this will ensure adjust ability for years to come! https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...35086426_n.jpg Perrin Lightwweight Crank Pulley was the first piece that we got installed on this virgin of a motor. https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...26486208_n.jpg https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...65575756_n.jpg Next up was the Injen Intake. This really helped the car breathe. https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...01848610_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...06477142_n.jpg The Hotchkis strut tower brace was then installed. We really like the design of this bar how it incorporates bracing to the firewall, in the same way the factory does. And it looks amazing under the hood! https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...12480752_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...78238204_n.jpg Now on the the power pieces. The first to go on the car was the Perrin over pipe and front pipe. Perrin did a great job on making these pieces and the quality of these 2 pipes is superb! https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...28998180_n.jpg https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...42187664_n.jpg Next up was the newely release M7 T-Titan catback exhaust. This was a quick shot over the factory exhaust next to the M7 and Perrin pieces. https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...82817341_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...51824360_n.jpg The M7 catback comes with adjustable exhaust tips, which is a nice feature for the customer, as it allows them to change the amount that the tips wil either stick in or out of the bumper. https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...15531081_n.jpg Perrin Overpipe installed. https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...00636262_n.jpg https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...78642691_n.jpg M7 T-titan Catback installed, along with a good view of the Cusco control arms. https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...25770826_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...24470075_n.jpg Now on to the wheels. Dan over at CCW did a lot of number crunching to see what we could fit underneath this brand new platform. What we came up with was a set of CCW LM20's 18x9.5 fronts and 18x10 rear with Satin centers and Gloss black lips. These wheels really set the car apart and finished off the overall look. Fitment was on the money and with only -2* front and -3* rear camber, with didnt take much to make them fit at the height we set them to without rubbing. https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...45960829_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...93176565_n.jpg Now on to the alignment rack to get the numbers dialed in. https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...35829558_n.jpg We like to protect your investment so we take precautions on each rim to ensure no damage occurs! https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...55143857_n.jpg Also, got all new badges for the car and blacked them all out to match the theme of the car. https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...32985002_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...59010569_n.jpg And the final product! https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...95297206_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...10700347_n.jpg https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...76460151_n.jpg https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...05294323_n.jpg https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...17673574_n.jpg https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...54167217_n.jpg Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did building it! Stay tuned for more upgrades and pictures! Thanks -Matt |

See you next week buddy! |
The ccws look amazing and a pretty aggresive lip as well! I wonder how they would look in white.
Awesome build |
love the wheels. stepped lip ftw. the only minor critique i have is that the bolts on the wheels shouldbe gold!
|
Dyno number?
|
oh. my. god. Im tempted just to "add to cart" one by one with all of those parts....
this is pretty much exactly what I want my hot lava to look like. you guys did an absolutely fantastic job |
Is there a way to run these wheels without so much camber? I really dont like the crooked wheel look.
