It is very nice having a heated garage at my condo, ensures that my FRS wakes up with 30+ degree oil everyday.


What oil have you been running with the turbo? Also, what tune are you running and how refined is it at these colder temperatures?

It is the AVO tune, it is running super great. I switched my oil for a bit, going with a heavier weight, but back down to what is suggested for the motor. Come spring I will probably go back up in weight a little bit. However the engine is never really "cold started," the coldest being around 1-2 degrees. Over night it stays in a heated garage.

Winter driving this winter myself. Just got the car undercoated to try and protect it, bought brand new Michelin X-Ice for $400 225/45/18 fits nicely. Going to baby it as much as possible and only hoon when safe

Mod list this coming spring that I still haven't made time for will include: Installation of FA Coils & Whiteline LCA's, STi Under panels & Password CF Rear Deck, Borla V2 Headers and various Whiteline/Perrin goodies, and not to mention my recent purchase, Grimmspeed CAI
Lucky getting to store it, good mod list too!

Anyone availible to have their car featured tomorrow in Regina? I'll be filming with a group of a few cars and another photographer for a car feature/edit. If anyone can make it pm me and I'll send you my cell number.

I've got 9500km now... makes me sad how much I have to drive it, but yet impressed because though I've put that much in five months, everytime I drive it I'm proud of the car. I'm about to order/install a GFB complete pulley kit that I'm picking up for a great price, then ordering TRD Lip, Window Visors, and a Roof spoiler that is a slight lip that matches the natural lines of the roof nicely. Havent decided if I want to use my vinyl and wrap the roof gloss black and do the roof spoiler black or left red to contrast the roof vinyl.

Go Fast Bits pulley set and TRD spoiler I ordered should be here next week, spent just under $300 for all including shipping! Will just need to paint the spoiler but I can do that myself. May just paint it gloss black to match my accents.

Held a video/photo shoot today! Will post my favourite ones once they're edited

Still driving mine once in a while, I've got my Nameless overpipe sitting here waiting to get installed along with the Nameless axle back. So far I have no plans for mods over winter except for side skirts and rear spats to go with my front lip and rest diffuser I still need to install!

Kijiji Edmonton I always keep an eye out In Alberta for evo/frs parts since random stuff like this seems to be more common. Like this on has some small damage but is fixable and I think you could probably get a new tip for it

This is an awesome deal, even with the bent tip that could easily be replaced. I don't need it and I'm tempted
