Does the fender lining get in the way? I was just not gonna run the bolts up there, so does it need to come off?

Fender lining was getting thrashed from the rubbing anyways. With the fender lining in, there are like 3 or 4 little clips that connect it to the front bumper. With the lining in, you'd have to remove those clips as well to separate the bumper from the lining.

Four bolts on top and all the clips that trace the headlights keep it snug in place.

Can't right now. Still overseas. I'll see if somebody can do it for me so I can post the pics but we'll see.

When you guys are drifting, do you turn off traction control by just holding the traction button for 3 seconds until its 2 yellow lights. Or do you do the full pedal dance thing (which I haven't tried)?

Also, when its got 2 yellow lights, does the system still interfere when it flashes the skid light?

Correct on holding the traction button for 3 seconds or whatever time it is. I see the light flash but it doesn't feel like its actually doing anything.

Also remove the ABS fuse.

Tony Angelo hooked it up with some knuckles. Measured about 56-58 degrees. Don't know what stock is, I think about 45? Nothin crazy but definitely feels better, no rubbing even. Stoked to try these out at next event!

Love reading y'all's posts (and especially seeing the vids). Friend asked to go for a ride in the FR-S today and I decided to try a clutch kick. Lmao funnest thing I've ever done in the car, now I see why you guys love drifting so much.

Anyway, back to lurking for me. Post more!
