Matt's 2014 Asphalt FR-S - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

FRSasphalt · 02-02-2014, 08:04 PM

Here is my 2014 asphalt FR-S. Mods:
Eibach pro kit (stock shocks for now)
18x8 Enkei RPF1 +45
225/40/18 Continental Extreme Contact
Perrin 2" shorty antenna
35% tint sides and back
pro clip GPS bracket
Diode Dynamics "86" console plate

Future mods:
Bilstein sport or koni yellow shocks/struts
Seibon carbon fiber SN style spoiler
Nameless exhaust
TRD intake
turbo?

So far, I'm loving the car. I just had the springs put on and will get an alignment in another week or so (let them settle a little). So far, I love how it drives with them -- reduced nose dive on braking, not much stiffer than stock, less body roll.

March 2014 - installed FiveAD color matched spoiler. I also added RPF1 wheelcaps. Kinda pricy but I couldn't deal with the open hubs on the rims.

Another angle -- the fitment and color match is great, highly recommended. The installation went smooth with the supplied paper templates and adhesive promoter.

August 2014 - swapped out the stock shocks for Koni Yellows. The new shocks smoothed out the ride a bit, feels less "crashy" now, much nicer. The car's handling is similar to the stock setup

Installed SPC LCAs -- camber brought back to around -1.4, from -2 in the rear. The car now has a tendancy to oversteer in corners like stock (though a bit grippier), which is fun.

Future mods:
Nameless Exhaust
Intake
Tune

Just as something to do, you can undo the single ten under the stock exhaust tip and bring them out till the clamp sits at the end of the pipe. This brings the stock tips to almost flush and makes the car look much better at the back. Good looking car and looking forward to the updates.

Yeah, I'll probably give that a shot if I don't order an exhaust soon. The stock exhaust is already showing some rust, so I might replace it within 6 months.

I did just buy some diode dynamics fog lights, which will give it a more JDM GT86 look. Just need to install them soon.

Nice car! Love the wheel color!
