Soon! I promise. I'm still at work, and have a ton of stuff to take care of by 7:30 PST. As soon as that time hits though I'll go outside and snap a few shots of it's current ride height. It's super mild at the moment, but as soon as I locate a set of wheels I'm okay with, it's getting a good proper adjustment to 30mm, and then corner balancing.

Shots from SonicMS there isn't much drop yet, I'm going to get a better comparison shot soon.


EDIT: Facebook broke the image links. I don't have these images any longer. Just pretend there is a silver FR-S that's like 1 inch lower than stock on stock wheels. Bask in it's ugliness!

After driving the car to work today, I'm still in awe of how amazing the car feels. I also realized while trying to back into a spot in the garage that I need to learn the corners of my car. :P

I know a lot of you guys are going to hate on the M45, but that's my good friend's car. I think it looks amazing. It's built to be a show car. It's on bags, and I always see his car and am just amazed at how good it looks. He's also got an 89 miata with a full custom cage, wide body, and an LS1 waiting to go in. Also an S14 for drifting. Also an S13 sitting around. Also a miata parts car... He convinced me to come to the show. He wanted to show off the FR-S more than I did. lol.

what yellow car is that infront of you???

I think I was the second Argento in the bay area. @russv cheated and won the first86 competition. :P

You're in Fremont, swing by the Blox open house on Saturday if you wanna see the car in person and chat/meet/whatever. It'll be in the Project RIDE booth.

denkigrve 07-13-2012 04:10 PM

So the car is heading to the shop today to get something checked out, and I'm gonna get it corner balanced, as well as go down about 10mm. So I'll post some more pictures either today or tomorrow after the Blox Open House.

Very nice FR-S! Love the TSW wheels XD
