Well it's the OEM one :P Only they are on 17X8 wheels so they are a little bit streched. Thanks!

Update on my FR-S. So far what installed: BC Coilovers, Cusco Strutbar and Nameless axle back/high flow cat combo.



It's been 3 week since I've installed the BC's and damn I love them on the track and on the street ! Stiff, but not too much. Abosorb when needed and stiff when I want. For now I'm at 15/15 for the damper setting and it's perfect. I'm still on OEM tires so I reach the limit of the tires really fast but in my book, it's better to run on cheap tire before upgrading.

For the Namless exhaust... damn it sound loud! Really the best sounding exhaust that i've heard. But when I'm on highway speed, no sound at all. You hear it when you want it. Plus, it really look crazy. But it's a pain to install ! For the cat section, it pass over the cross member ( so it's more a overpipe/cat combo ) so to pass it I've got to slack the transmission and engine mount bolts and pry the engine to put the overpipe in place.

Other than that, my car was out of the body shop last week. To make a long story short my windshield was defective, they remplace it at my dealer and fucked up the thing ( scrached my a pillars, windshield was really offset ) and now everything is perfect. I've ask them to remake the job at a place that I'm sure of and they did the job flawlessly.

I've installed an OEM style alarm, really happy of it! It's the same installation but you use the OEM remote to control it. The module is Avital 3001 made by DEI.

Ah and I'm in the flooded tail lamp group now



A video of my first lapping session that I've made:

Legit pictures are legit. I dig. Also, I think you've sold me on the BC coilovers...

So far so good.

What kind of camera are you using? Looks really good. And are you editing it?

I'm pretty disapointed with my camera, It's a Canon SX130IS and I always got to edit picture like crazy to make them look good. I'm using a crappy cell program to edit them, called pixlr available online for PC.

With that, my pictures look great :P
