Tofurky's Track Build

Recently, I was about to trade in my FRS to be able to tow my go kart around to my races. However, I lucked into a sprinter van and decided to keep my FRS to participate in the 86Cup and eventually (2018 or 2019) to compete in the USTCC or an equivalent series. For the remainder of this year I have decided to compete in the street class of the 86Cup and decided I should document my build. Sooooo....here it goes!

I only have these old pictures of my car at the moment but exterior wise you aren't missing much....yet





So far I have installed
TRD wing
TRD shift knob
TRD canards
HKS air filter
Perrin intake elbow
Toyota badges
Clear corners
DBA slotted rotors
Racing brake stainless steel brake lines
JDM exhaust tips
Perrin front sway bar
WRX rear sway bar
Gruppe S UEL header
SPC rear lower control arms
RCE yellow springs on stock shocks
Grimmspeed master cylinder brace

Currently, I have a boat load of parts waiting to be installed by Works Motorsports at Sonoma Raceway as they will be providing support for me in my endeavors.



Parts currently on order/sitting in my apartment
Velox front splitter w/ race upgradge
Velox rear diffuser
APR brake duct kit
Winjet foglight bezel
SARD LSR wing
Side skirts/rear spats
Over/frontpipe
Koyo radiator
Mishimoto thermostat
NED oil cooler
Perrin rear shifter bushing
Perrin transmission support
Whiteline gearbox bushing
XXR 527 17x8.25 w/ GT Radial SX2 245/40/17 (promoted tire for 86cup)
Openflash tablet (possibly will run e85)

Ordered the CTSV brake swap but haven't decided if I will install them yet
CTSV Brembos
CTSV brake swap kit
DBA STI rotors


I'll add in some pics from my karting as well. The black one is equipped with a Briggs and Stratton Lo206 motor and the other one is a shifter with a Honda CRF250R motor (hint:it flies)

OMI Racing x Works Motorsports x Suspensionspot

Just got my car back from Works Motorsports at Sonoma Raceway! They did really quick work installing all of my aero, cooling, and other parts.
















Here is the finished product stay tuned for my adventures in the Norcal 86Cup, Global Time Attack, and the Optima Search for the Ultimate Street Car!

Just ordered a lesser known coil on this forum under a recommendation I received.
I am getting the Stance XR2 which is an inverted monotube design with rebound and compression adjustability.

(Stay Tuned For Pictures!!)

Looking forward to hearing your opinion on those coils. I love your aero setup. I'm contemplating picking up the Velox rear diffuser - what's your impression of it so far?

I'd go with the Velox front splitter too, but I don't trust myself enough to not destroy it somehow...namely in autocross.

Do you have some generic CS style side skirts and rear spats?

Thank you, the setup all works well together. I can't tell you how the diffuser works by itself as I installed it all together, but in combination the car feels much more stable at higher speeds. Also the splitter is super sturdy and would be perfect for eating cones.

What part of the bay area are you from? Our builds are actually very, very similar. Check out my build thread to see pics of my car.

Anyways, subbed to see where this build goes! Keep up the good work
