These are the plugs to block the holes from removing the sound tube? I'll take a pair as well.

Ft86Chris · 06-01-2015, 03:11 PM

Ken Supplied with both,not only does the engine bay look better, i dont have to deal with a fake sound being pushed into the cabin.. Much better to just work with the exhaust.

Anyone in for a Wed evening cruise to Rideau Carleton Raceway?
Thinking of heading up, weather should be nice.

I can organize a bigger 86 group in the coming weeks.

On the way home from work today I misjudged the slipperiness of the pavement on a turn and managed to scuff my wheel pretty hard on a curb. Fortunately I was able to limp home without issue.

Does anyone have 2 stock wheels I could borrow for a couple weeks while I sort out what to do?

I've got a set at the shop. You're welcome to use them, I have some worn winters on them, could be fun!

I have a set as well. I use them on the track but they look new still (I'm not that hard on them obviously).
If Andre's set don't do it for you let me know.

Ken, if you are in the west end (I'm in Kanata) I'll take you up on that offer, that way I can drive to Andre's to talk about new wheels in the FRS instead of the echo

Does anybody know if there is a difference in steering input between the frs & the brz? @Simon99 and I swapped cars for a bit tonight (teaching him how to heel-toe

ahah) & both felt like it was different. Odd..

Simon99 · 06-01-2015, 11:09 PM

Will echo what @Slick and everyone else has said. I've started off with the basics. Got @Slick to install Hawk HP+ pads, k&n drop in filter and ate type 200 fluid. Would recommend going to him if you don't feel comfortable working on your car.
Picking up the grimmspeed hood struts from Sylvain. Next on the list are wheels, tires and exhaust. Need to pick up more OT shifts lol. Hopefully will be off one of these Friday's to make a meet.

CrazyBRZ · 06-02-2015, 12:48 AM

What shop do you work for Slick? And I hope the meet on friday works out. Can't make it on Wednesday, working until midnight.
