Diesel's FRS Also known as "Bad Luck"

Hey guys!

This is my 2014 FRS in Raven and I will update this journal as I continue to add and change things to my car.

So first off I ordered the TRD rims and had Continental ExtremeContact DW put on them. They are staggered.

Front 215/40/18 on 7 X 18
Rear 225/40/18 on 7.5 X 18

I really like these rims when it comes to cleaning as you can get your whole hand inside to clean everything!





I also did the mandatory 1.4" Drop and really liked how it came out and super simple to do. Eibach Sportlines
Painted the calipers red while I was there.
Blocked out the truck in the background. Its against some rules for me to distribute pictures of it.







Wasn't long before I decided to remove the rear seats and put in some better thump. It was only going to be a single sub but I ended up going with two.





After a few days things started to come together











Removed the rear seat and used the seat hinges to mount the box
I wanted it to fold down to to keep functionality but the box design would of intruded into the truck space more than I wanted.







So two JL 10TW3-D4 and Two JL 600.1 So each sub gets its own amp.
Pioneer AVH4000NEX and Car play works really well.






Also Installed a Back up camera because its just nice to be sure how close you are to something when parking







Waiting on a Invidia front pipe and Q300 to show up!

Haven't really gotten into any engine mods yet just because I don't really have the time and I like this car because of the power it has. I've had speeding ticket machines in the past and they just get me into trouble

Love the sub setup? You got it professionally done, I'm assuming, right?

Yea I had a reputable shop build the box for me.

It's my design along with how it's mounted.

I installed everything myself.
