Whats up everyone. Been lurking on this site for months, thought I'd finally make a username so I can join in the discussion. Still almost a year away from being ready to buy a new car, but the BRZ is definitely going to be my next ride.

I'm Matt. I've been lurking here for a while now - recently started actually posting. I'm a Systems Administrator in Seattle and am driving around in my 1991 Toyota MR2. I am planning on picking up an Ultramarine FR-S in the next few months. Don't plan on doing anything other than tint, springs, and wheels. I've got my race car already - just want something cheap, fun, and with a warranty.

Said MR2-




Whole heaps of crap done to it - major points:



3.0L V6 (1MZ-FE) swap from a 94 Lexus ES300
- LinkECU Atom standalone - tuned by Bob (Virtual_Bob) at Drift Office
- Ceramic coated headers
- Custom Y-pipe
- Greddy SP2 muffler
- Fidanza Flywheel
- South Bend Clutch stage 2 kevlar clutch kit
- Some other crap

Build thread is in my signature - if you're interest has been piqued.

Hello My name is Justin I've just joined the forums and have been researching everything i can about the FR-S, Im contemplating putting down my deposit to get on the waiting list here in Houston for one. Had a chance to drive an auto and right after sitting in the car and only driving a few minutes i was hooked, can only imagine how much more fun a 6mt will be.
Looking foward to seeing the new parts become available for engine performance and setting up the car to drift and being an all around fun daily-able street car.

Here are a few pics of my old S14 and current 350z.

Hello everyone. I'm in the LA area and today I bought an Ultramarine Scion FRS AT. So far I have no regrets.

Hello. My name is Phil from Chicago. Decided to part ways with my extremely short lived FC RX-7 project in favor of ordering an FR-S. I have been drifting for about 7 years and I plan to tackle daily duties, open track days, as well as drift days with my FR-S (once it arrives that is).

Some people may know me from the drifting community from my old 86 and Miata.

Everybody Hello,

My name is Deejay and I'm from San Deeyahgo, which according to Ron Burgundy means whale's vagina.

Just got my Argento FR-S two days ago. The car is so much fun to drive, so much fun to own and so much fun to learn about.

Very glad to be here with this Car.

Hey guys my name is Justin. I picked up my FR-S on June 1.

An hour later I slapped on black tints.

Then I went crazy driving up and down hills in Frederick. This car is my baby.
