Wonder how long it takes the pros?
I would have had to change mine by now if I never got the Yaris. lol. I'm debating on if I should change em out early instead of waiting until I get to 60k.

Only drove that car once at the Tour last weekend but it's not your typical ST. 315/30/18 Hoosier A7s in the front. Honestly it was a blast to drive something with gobs of torque and plenty of grip to use it. It was 420 TQ to the front wheels. Exactly the opposite of the FRS. lol

Yeah, highest active original motor as far as I know. It's slowed a lot since I swap between it and the mr2 for daily now though. Id be over 150k if it wasn't in the shop 6 of the first 12 months I owned it. Still hit 35k though lol.

I'll be down to around 25k/year avg by the time the 5 year mark hits end of this month.

Just ordered additional pads, some pad cleaner, and CarPro Iron X to prepare to detail the FR-S. I'll eventually get back to the Yaris now that I have a DA.
