WELCOME, bizintine .......

Make sure your "readings" include the owners manual. I suggest you read the "whole" thing .... not just how to set the radio. Then after a couple of weeks ..... read it again ..... you will be amazed at how much you "missed" .....

Yep, we could use some more automotive electrical expertise around here.

Seems we have several folks who start messen with half of their car's lights .... then wonder why the other half don't work right .....

Thanks Humfrz! Oh I can imagine, where I work the owners like to charge extra for the weekend warrior type. Pick my 86 up this Saturday cannot wait.

Hey everyone.
I picked up my 2015 Raven FRS this past weekend and have had a blast driving it. I traded in my BMW 335i (expiring warranty) for the FRS so I do miss a few things and have to deal with a lower level of materials and features. However, the drive is so far making the adjustment easier.

I look forward to doing some mods, but that will come in time.



My ex

What's up guys,
Just recently relocated from Chicago to Dallas for work in March. Just yesterday I traded in my 2015 Frontier for a 2013 Silver FRS. I've always been a Honda guy, having multiple SI's throughout the years. Although I have only had the FRS for 1 day, but I don't think I'll be disappointed.

Well, I guess it's final.. I picked up a ´13 Crystal White Pearl GT86 with 12k miles on it yesterday. Ride home was mostly highway, but some parts were twisty and if you can drive this car on a twisty road and not smile, you're a robot, clean and simple! And I can't walk away from it and not look back more than once, it just looks so good in my opinion.

One more year of warranty, so I won't be as worried if shit happens

I call myself a photographer, but I have only had the time to take a photo with my phone so far, right after picking it up.

TRD springs and lip for now. Will be getting the TRD sideskirts sometime in the future, and adapt my 5x114.3 Work VS-XX wheels to it. Probably gonna paint the stock wheels black while I wait for the adapters, and new paint for the Work wheels.
