Hi everyone, I just picked up a 2014 FR-S Monogram Hot Lava. Stock with TRD exhaust system only has 9K miles. My plans are to track it not a daily. I have a DD so this car will only come out to be pushed not babied at autocross and track days. Isn't that what it was made for? Since I have 4yrs/50k warranty on drivetrain/engine/electrical I can't afford to put anything but TRD stuff unless it's brake pads/rotors/wheels/tires. Coming from a Honda Civic Si with 290k original no rebuilt tranny or engine, I heard many bad things about the boxer engines. Fill me in FR-S/BRZ and GT86 owners. Btw I'm not looking for power cause my Honda is being planned for that. Any input that's positive would be great.
