Slightly different shape.

and honestly I'd rather have the headlights from the 86.

Lol I want the green LED light from the BRZ GT3000, but sadly that doesn't seem very street legal.

First mod: snow tires on steelies. Can't imagine driving this in winter with all-seasons, the way I can with my Tiburon (at least when the snow isn't bad).

Are you gonna change the tires yourself? Cause if you are getting separate winter and summer tires can actually save you quite a lot and you get more outa your tires.

I invite you to read and participate to this thread where they discuss swaping headlights between FR-S and BRZ. They also explain in images why it might be difficult to swap: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2520

Back to thread subject.

I'd simply ask to not have the FR-S lettering on the back and if possible swap the side 86 pistons for those fake side vents that are on the BRZ. Badge swapping is a personal thing. I don't find the Scion badge uglier than the Toyota badge. Of all car companies, I only find those of BMW, Cadillac, Porsche and Mini really appealing. Honestly, I find those of the Asian makers (Honda/Acura, Toyota Family, Nissan, Hyundai) look alike (except for Subaru).

I find it hard to believe people are so upset it has a different badge

I will remove the lettering because I think it looks nicer that way but I wouldn't spend money to change something so insignificant

I'm going with a CAI just because it makes the motor sound better, and might net a couple of ponies.

Then 17x8 track wheels with 235-245 tires.

then maybe some konis and TRD springs.

Then the inevitable SC once I'm comfortable with RWD at the limit on the track for a couple years, and a bigger front swaybar since I'll have the power to overtake the push it'll give me.

- pay off the car
- drive it to know it (auto-x and track it)
- chassis reinforcement and suspension
- rims (RPF01's or Volks) and rubber
- Limited Slip Differential
- track it some more then...
- *Clarkson voice* POWWWEEEERRRRRR

the order might change for rims and LSD
