Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Happy birthday!

Oldest FR-S driver ?? ....... maybe on Guam .....

As far as the rims, just wash them from time to time ..... they look just fine ......

I've been checking out all of your awesome builds throughout the forum and I'm really leaning towards trying to sell my car this summer in hopes that I can get an FR-S. Looking forward to learning from everyone who has been around and contributed so much good information to these threads.


p.s. - Where does Iowa fit in in the regional forums? Haven't seen much action from this state... Just like every other forum.

Hey guys! Just got a 2013 pearl white frs before winter and so far love everything about it. Only thing I am looking for is a local shop where I can get parts from (don't want to have to deal with a dealership though). Looking forward to being a regular on this site with updates of my project.

Hi all,


Just finalizing my decision on an FR-S or BRZ...but very excited either way! I see that there are lots of meets in and around Toronto, so I'm looking forward to some summer chats and group drives!


Happy driving

Hi Everyone


Just checking in. I've been lurking here as a guest for awhile. Finally signed up.
I've been a Toyota fan since I was a kid, when I used the library computer to get on Club4AG. haha. That was when we only had 56k modem at home!

Howdy! Just wanted to stop by and say hi. Got my FRS 10 Series about a month ago and i couldn't be happier. I used to own 4 AE86s and ever since toyota announced this back in 08 or 09 i knew i had to have one. Now i got very close to not buying one after i test drove an AT at the LA auto show( funny it was a 10 series too). The car felt lifeless and boring and of course the Scion guy was trying to sell me on the bling and knew NOTHING of the FRS or the AE86. After this I almost lost all interest in the car until a month ago when i was looking at getting an s2000 or fj cruiser and decided to just check the prices of the FRS/BRZ. Once i found out that they were in my price range now, i went down to the toyota dealership and test drove a MT and I LOVED IT so i bought it. Everyday i love it even more! This car totally has the essence and feel of the AE86.

Hey All,

had my 86 for awhile now, but I've been to busy with grad school to do anything with it. Now that Spring is rolling around though.. I'm having a good time modding

New to posting, not new to the forums~
