My FRS is my DD. I do have back up in case something happens. The trusty old 83 Toyota pick up. Anyways, initially I wanted to get rid of the horrible wheel gap. But I didn't want something slammed down. Since this is my DD, being too slammed (and stiff) would limit my access to certain areas. However, I'm also into the twisties so handling is something I care about as well. I won't say I made the smartest spring choice a few years back (Tein STech) but it did do wonders to the aesthetics of the car. At least for me. (Plus the purchase was a hurry up and wait and see game for the market at under $200). What I think was biggest improvement for handling were the tires. That was switching from stock to the ZII Star Spec. (And keeping stock size.)

Now that the market is more mature, I can make a wiser spring choice for something more neutral. So my next suspension upgrade will be a new spring set matched up with some B8s. More than likely the Swift springs. Though I haven't decided between the Sports or Spec-R. I'm also considering the Cusco shocks instead of the B8s since they are adjustable, but I also like the no nonsense of the B8. I would consider the Racecomp springs, but going back to aesthetics, the drop needs to be just a hair more.

Anyways, overall. I want something fun to drive like the Miata's I've had, yet more practical with trunk space. The FRS did it for me. Now I'm just guiding it into the looks and handling that I prefer.
