Oh, yes, later I'll have to take a spin in my FR-S to pick up the furnace filter I had to order.

I'll post my backing up stunt, almost crashed, over in that thread..

time to install a backup cam, me thinks.

I've been very surprised how good the OEM one is for mine. Very wide view and easy to see cars coming from either direction for a while.

Well, I should have had one installed when I first got the car and had the head unit upgraded. However, since I had no problem seeing out the back in that small car, I didn't think I would need it ….

You mean a lot of cars from the 80's. Some can even talk.

I've spent the last hour looking for a post I saw on here yesterday.

It was a picture of black OEM Nissan caps to replace the yellow brake booster one and maybe a few others. I didn't note the part numbers and now I can't find it anywhere

Sometimes I think the S2000 was a more 80's retro car than the BRZ.

Batteries deplete over time whether you use them or not. I haven't used my GoPro in over a year and it was dead when I randomly had it out a bit ago. Pretty sure it had a full battery when I put it away.
