I doubt I'll FI the FR-S. I've decided I'm only going to keep it until I can reasonably afford a used 14 Corvette Stingray and not a day longer. That could be a long time though so we'll see haha

That's a nice orange/bronze combo. I've got a mustard-colored 350z. Haven't decided whether I'm going to follow through and make it a track car, or sell it off.



Excuse the wheels, they're from the previous owner.

1998 Mazda Protege LX

Currently setup for winter duties but during the warmer months I throw on a set of 15x7 ET30 TR Motorsports C4 wheels. Also has an aftermarket 20mm rear sway bar adapted from a later year Protege, H&R Sport springs and KYB GR-2 shocks. Not a bad little car and for 16 years of New England winters it's near mint. With the thick rear sway bar I can get the back end to swing out on command, kinda fun in the winter although not FR-S level fun.


Don't mind all the stuff in the back, this was a parting shot from when I moved from Maine to New Hampshire.
