Central Ohio: BRZ/FRS owners.... lets get rowdy. - Page 17 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

CrispyCheddar · 02-22-2015, 05:43 PM

Hey Doc! I am your biggest fan, when my Miata friend(is that his in the background?) introduced me to you I wanted to be just like YOU! hahah if you ever want to get rid of those gold Enkei's, I'll be first in line

On another note, UFO sounds interesting, I will keep checking on their website here and there, once they update the 2015 autox dates I'll see which ones I can make.

I am also looking at the Mid-Ohio Porche Club of America(MORPCA) event in April. Trying to get some track time under my belt. I am sure I will make a good amount of events this year.

I should have figured out who was behind that screen name, but I admit, I didn't.

Yes, that was probably Chandler's Miata in the background. You certainly don't need my advice on autocross. You already know that you can hangout with the CR crew at the events, and Chandler knows more about the autocross scene than the average participant. I believe he'll tell you the same things about UFO as I did.

I look forward to seeing what, if anything, you modify on your FRS.

Welcome cheddahhhh.

I instruct at SCCA and Auto Interest at Mid-Ohio throughout the year and also help local drift events like drift movement.

If you want to go to a track day at mid-ohio let me know. I can help you out with driving, car set-up, and what is needed. PM me if you want.

Hi everybody.

I got my 2013 BRZ last September, used, certified with 12k miles.

I live in Columbus on the Hilltop close to the casino. I work up in the Polaris area and do the drive around 270. I have seen only one or two BRZs or FRSs around town. Funny thing is there is a blue BRZ right in the neighborhood and have no idea who owes it.

I have spent countless hours on this forum searching and researching for this and that and just today thought I would register and see if I could find other owners in the Columbus area. Seems there are a few.

I haven’t had this much fun with a car since owning a 1969 Roadrunner when I was in high school. It is just a blast!!!

Dox · 03-09-2015, 06:59 PM

Welcome! Yeah, there is an active group of 86's in central Ohio. One recurring event for you to consider is ColumbusCarsandCoffee.net

This takes place Saturday mornings 9 a.m. to noon at the Cup o' Joe at Lennox on Olentangy. All makes are welcome, there is no particular organization, and you'll see a wide variety of people and cars there. I hope you can make it out.

Carpe diem!

You will see mine run around polaris once the weather breaks for good. Feel free to say hello if you see me.

Thanks Dox, I will try to make to one of these soon.

Hey guys ,Anyone local with the intercooled innovate kit can give me a hand on this ,

This last week has been a complete nightmare for me ...asked a local shop to install my intercooler upgrade kit onto my existing non ic and moto flex fuel kit and has the P0171 bank 1 too lean. I replaced both of the plastic fitting behind the blower with the brass bspt and tightened them as much as we can but the rpm is still increase when we spray some brake cleaner ...

I want to split open the blower again and reseal them using red permatex silicone around the edges where the bolts are , do you guys think it's a good idea ?

Really need some input at this point ...
Thanks guys

Selling a swp BRZ Limited. 19k miles. Firm at $19500. Tell your friends. Lol

Checking in. Just bought a '13 FR-S last week (sold my 2nd MR-2 last week to buy it, too much bad luck i.e. too dumb to drive it properly/safely). I'm in Michigan for work currently but will be back in CBus soon.

Dox · 04-23-2015, 08:37 PM

Congrats, and welcome. Any plans for the FRS?

lead82 · 04-24-2015, 11:49 AM

Reverting it to mostly stock. It has a few aftermarket items:

injen intake
greddy evo3 cat-back exhaust
tsw nurburgring 18"
HID kit
clear corner markers
Toyota emblems

Trying to revert everything except for the intake and exhaust. Big fan of RPF1, so those might come first.

How's the gt-4 doc?

Dox · 04-24-2015, 12:45 PM

It's anxious to get out more, now that the weather's nicer.

I'm putting the CCW's back on the 86 today, so it will be out at Sonic tonight.
