WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR FRS TODAY?

[ddevl_86]

I looked at it, like I do every day... more like stared. I can't keep my eyes off of it, really haha!

But late November I finally installed my VLand headlights, Intec LED fender garnish, smoked switchback sequential side markers, and switchback LED Fangs on the front bumper cover! I think it came out fantastic! Havent taken any pics of the fender garnish install yet, but heres some from the front:





Ive got more install pics and info over on this thread: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=142727

it's too bad the tap turn guy passed away.

but then he used an attiny85. left room for a lot more functionality as well.

Installed a new plug and play v3 p3 vent gague. So clean should have done this a long time ago. Anyone tracking an early twin it's a no brainier to monitor things while keeping the interior clean

Never seen or heard of one until now. Looks great man! How much was the one you got? I just googled V3 P3 that was ~$350. A bit outta my budget lol

What're you tracking specifically, or what would you recommend for a 2013 w/97k miles?

I got the plug in play one which uses ob2 port. Snice I track my car and I am boosted I monitor afr, coolant and oil temps at the track. For daily driving it's not needed. It's a 10 min install looks very OEM!

Try it with an app called torque. It will not mess up your car at all

none of these monitors linked so far will mess up the car in any way. they are monitors only. not modification devices.

Thats good to know! Im new to the car game, so I dont know much about what I can mess with or mess up internally haha

I picked the car up at a dealer in San Antonio, and didnt have any information on non-stock stuff that the previous owner mightve done to the car. So i don't know if it's tuned or not, or where to take it to check. It has a decent exhaust sound - but i dont know how or why it does. It might be straight-piped from what I saw under the car when i installed my 3rd brake...

Thanks again for the info!
