Thanks guys, I will try and make it out there soon one of these Monday's. Life tends to be busy in the evenings and weekends with three kids. Dance, karate, dance, karate, swimming, karate, dance, swimming.....

It never ends!

My FRS arrived yesterday and picking it up in an hour! Anyone know a good place to have a clear bra put on (hood, bumper, mirrors)?

Going with 50% on the side windows and 35% for the rear (I actually got pulled over as soon as I moved to Minnesota on my Mazda 3 that had 35% on the sides but they let me go since I had Utah plates).

Still debating on the clearbra. I am just worried the WRB will show rock chips and there is so much new construction going on here in Maple Grove..

You won't be disappointed with Bravo. When my tint peeled after I got it done (due to the fact that the window rolls down on its own when you open the door) I called them up, and they told me to bring it on on that day or whenever I was available. Got me in right away, and got it done as soon as possible. They never disappoint there!

If you do get a clear bra, get it done there. Never had a single problem after they installed it on my tC. Now when I got the FR-S, I made a bad decision and originally got my clear bra done by the dealership. All but the clear bra on the fenders had to be replaced, including the mirrors. They hooked me up with a shop in Minnetonka that replaced it last week, and so far so good. But I would have just gone to Bravo if I would have known how bad of a job Toyota would do!

Spent the day doing laps on BIR with Black_Tire yesterday. What a great event the North Star BMW CCA puts on. It was especially nice to compare cars and feel the difference his mods made out on the track.

I learned a lot of good stuff from him.

Can't wait to get back out there.

Looks like fun! I hope to get out there at least once this year.

What wheel/tire sizes are those? Looks like you're on coilovers too. Which ones do you have?

M3GH4N · 06-08-2013, 04:55 PM

Anyone else going to Proving Grounds in two weeks? Can't decide if I want to drive the FRS up there yet/track it, but I'm going either way.

ArmyJon · 06-08-2013, 08:27 PM

I'm running 225/45 slicks on 17x7.5 SPARCOs. I'm not on coil overs but I am running swift springs I'm very happy with them.

ayau · 06-08-2013, 10:51 PM

@ArmyJon and @Black Tire, when will you guys be going to BIR again?

How did the OEM rotors hold up? Did your brake fluid boil?
