Can you recommend me what to mod next?

Sell the exhaust, use that money to buy a catless header, put stock exhaust back on.

I'll look into the springs thanks.

I'm not sure about a catted header vs stock, and honestly I'm not sure about a gutted oem header either. I might gut mine and see from the butt dyno if it makes a difference for fun one weekend... wont be any time soon though I have a lot going on in the coming weekends for the next couple of months.


Here's another thought: Crawford power blocks. I don't have mine yet but I hear they make a huge difference in the mid range. Once mine come in I'll have full NA bolt ons... after feeling these out it will probably help me make up my mind whether I go to FI or go built NA 8.5-9k screamer

Llumar air 80 front tint if you live somewhere sunny. I'm spoiled in my car now. Protects interior and actually reflects a lot of heat on sunny drives. Say good bye to burning thighs/arms from light that comes from the FRONT windshield.

Also, comparing our build, we have similar taste in mods. Also driving habits as my FRS is my DD and rare occasional track. Assuming you care for your car since you opticoated it, try weathertech floor mats with personalized logos, rexpeed convex mirrors (worth it for the safety factor imo), DIY interior footwell lights (really easy, <$20 in parts PM if you want to know how I did mine), kartboy short shifter, rear shifter bushing, transmission bushing, and yospeed custom door sills. All these parts will better protect your car, add a bit of personalization, enhance daily driving, and are all DIY.

Check #1868frs on instagram and you can see all my before/after pics of my build.

Thanks for the tips. I looked into the convex mirrors but couldn't justify 100 for mirror inserts. Gonna look into the short shifter/bushings and the footwell lights thanks.

Hood struts? Master cylinder brace? < My next mods

plasti dip your soul? vinyl wrap your dignity? underglow your insecurity? ebay your miserable existence?

[JB86'd]

Grimmspeed master cylinder brace, Mtec shift springs, Radium pcv catch can setup, Rexspeed blue convex mirrors. Those are a few of my favorite "function" mods I've done so far.

and Wow that is a pretty big DIY job.

I did everything except the axleback at the same time.

I have the catted header from FT86 speed factory. I'd say I definitely can feel a little more power overall and a more linear power delivery at the bottom end.

If you don't mind getting a tune, I'd just get a set of uncatted UEL headers though.

With my setup, I think i could have gone with an uncatted UEL and still been ok. I pretty much have the quietest axle back available and still have resonator on mid pipe and cat on front pipe.

Current setup is fairly stealthy even with the new stuff on.

Grimmspeed Strut Tower Brace and Master Cylinder Brace. Both have an immediately noticeable improvement in handling and brake feel respectively.
