619_FRS - Leila

Hey everyone,

I probably should have started a build thread a long time ago, but never thought I'd take it so far. This is my first tuner I've ever put together. Before this I had a Tacoma and since I was a kid I've always loved muscle cars. There's something about the FRS though that I love, which took me to the point to buy one. I actually never thought of getting ultramarine, but after having it and comparing it to other I love the color. Not too many people are building ultramarines. I'm just going to list all the modifcations that I have done so far and then list all the pictures. I'll try my hardest to put the mods and pictures in chronological order.

Modifications:
Center Gravity Springs
Work Wheels CR Ultimates - 18x9.5 +30 all around
Project Kics - Neo Chrome lugs
225/40/18 Falken Azenis
ARK Exhaust DT-S
JDM window visors - color matched by 2M Autowerks in San Diego
Motiv Concepts - Overpipe and testpipe
Beatsonic - shark fin antenna
Downforce Carbon Lip Kit - color matched by 2M Autowerks in San Diego
OEM markers - Color matched side markers
OEM Tail lights - clear red with clear cut out
Work Wheels Center Caps
RSR Black-i Coilovers
Rexspeed Carbon Spats - color matched by 2M Autowerks in San Diego

Still to come this week:
SBC camber bolts - front (this will allow me to go a little lower so I don't rub as much)
Beatsonic rook spoiler - color matched

Sexy! Obviously the best color, and great choice of aftermarket parts!

Thanx; you should go with RSR, either sport-i or black-i. You won't regret it. Sport if you're more into tracking all the time or black if you wanna go low but still maintain a great quality ride (better than stock). Black is still trackable and will give you great performance, it just isn't meant for the constant track days that some people do.

Looks beautiful man! Nice work! Man, this Downforce lip is looking more and more amazing when I see it. I may decide to go this route of a lip spoiler.
