FR-S 10 Series Registry

10 Series owners have also been having difficulties with just replacing the Scion logo completely, as there is a large hole in the center for the wires. Therefore it is not as simple as the regular FR-S to GT86 swaps. 10 Series owners who have changed to Toyota logos had to add a backing to cover the hole.

Ahh I see...I keep going back and fourth on the glowing emblems...

I'm almost 30...imagine showing up to a job interview for a $100k position and getting out of your car and the emblems start glowing lol

If it's that big of a deal, you can disable the emblems with a little work. One member even rewired them so he can control when they turn on (I think, or they attempted to)

Plus if it makes you feel any better, Mercedes is now doing glowing emblems as a Luxury option

Give it some time. They seemed over the top at first then I grew to accept them and now admire them every time they glow, especially when they randomly light up when I'm near the car. Pretty cool, actually, and I've had strangers take pictures of them and like others things that are shiny and bright, tend to attract women. Win!

Only if they can keep pulling making fun cars like the FR-S. Aside from the FR-S and tC there's not much going on in the Scion line up. The xB had it's day in the sun and you don't see those (I hope people wanting to drive lunch boxes stick with the xB instead of that uber crappy KIA Soul).


Not to sound too derogatory towards Scion (sorry Scion haters) but there's not much excitement in the Honda (Si -same old with 205hp/NSX -who can afford a hybrid supercar?) , Subaru (4AWD is great but they're hard on the eyes), and Nissan (cheaper Z -that's like buying a iPhone 5c instead of a 5S) camps as well.


Looking forward to 2015 Mustang & Camaro, and Supra.

Whew, I'm sweating. Which brings up cooling. Will the stock radiator be up to the task or do you have upgrade plans in the works?

Cooling is on my mind I been wanting this Trd part but Toyota won't sell it to me...stock radiator has been ok so far but I don't have miles on this thing yet.

How did u know I had brochures ???? Lol. I found a bunch on eBay~

I been asking Toyota race to sell me some things for a while now but no luck yet. My hunch (don't hold me to it) is that's the hks oil cooler but relabeled...again I don't know for sure they just resemble each other. Also looks similar to what's in the griffin project. I'm currently figuring it out...hard to tell with limited pics.
