Which track was this streets?

Wow. So lucky!!! Did you all organize a track day or the toyota folks or just all kind of showed up

This is great. Just think about this kind of meet in a year or so-- the aftermarket will have grown so much, there will be a ton of bodies and FI setups and it will be a display of very mature and competent cars. (not to say they aren't currently competent and great.)

Well, that gold and white FR-S pretty much determined what color combo I'm going with. Looks fantastic!

Chief Tada replied to my FB post and said, Streets of Willow Springs Raceway is where a LOT of the testing took place for the development of the FT86.

Now, as for this event, it was an offline event hosted for Import Tuner magazine, and I brought in Super Taikyu driver, Takashi Oi for testing the full line of FRS present here.
So wait for the issue, and read about it in the upcoming months.

That is CUSCO USA's FRS. Currently under further development.

Why was this moved to the gallery section? I was going to put in lots of information pertaining to performance upgrades for the FRS... Dos and Don't as well... Oh well. I guess I should have written about that first (but then I am embargoed from doing that till the magazine is out...) As far as driving impressions by Oi san... I am doing the translation soon for Import Tuner. So again, I can't post that yet either.

Sorry guys! Soon enough!

RRnold · 06-25-2012, 03:05 PM

Nice!! I can't wait till I get mine and take it SoW!

FRSPirate · 06-25-2012, 03:52 PM

We should change the thread title to what it really is... FRS at Streets of Willow. I kind of expected to see big track pics but was happy to see it was Streets. I love streets! Cant wait to test my skills off the bike and in the FRS @ Streets.

Sasquachulator · 06-25-2012, 04:30 PM

is it just me or does the color matching n the white FRS with the FiveAxis kit make it just not look good (since the kit looks matte and the car looks pearly)?

its making me hate the kit again lol.

Hanzo · 06-25-2012, 05:10 PM

I remember that guy from Best Motoring videos haha, he loves Miatas.

The color doesn't match; I also noticed it with the black one (and hey claim to have the best painters)= they sukk. Don't buy Fiveaxis stuff.

lol
