WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR FRS TODAY?

Mounted 255/40R17 Bridgestone RE71-Rs. I rub a little bit, but I hope an alignment will fix it.

Put it in storage. I drove it into the shop and disconnected the negative battery cable



Unless it warms up soon it'll be mostly taken apart.

I like it a lot. It sounds way better than my previous exhaust which was just a muffler delete.

Nice! I’m always tempted by the tomei 60s for the weight savings but I’ve heard it’s loud. I imagine the 80 must be a beast.

It’s much quieter at idle tbh, but for the most part it is extremely loud, I just hope I don’t get into any trouble when I go to the track.

Bumped the idle tables (all nine of them!) up by 50-100 RPM throughout the range. Sounds/feels much better, now. I think I may need to rescale my MAF a touch, but need to watch more logs to confirm.

Finally got around to making a center high mount stop light. Amazon LED strip + scrap carbon fiber piece + aluminum strip attached to a rivnut in the plastic rivet hole. Completely invisible from the driver seat and no 3M tape on the window!

I'm going to drop the trans on mine to see why the clutch stops working when it gets hot.. and maybe order a new clutch if I can't spot anything wrong as this problems ruins a track weekend.
