Today, July 2nd, I purchased my FR-S six years ago. I have 74,204 miles as of 10 min ago. Which works out to 33.86 miles per day. The new feeling is gone, but I still love it, have projects in the works for it, and am having a tone fun driving it!

Tide Pods are ok I guess. Call me old school; but when I want that soapy taste in my mouth like I been cursing and my grandma caught me, I grab a bar of LAVA for that nostalgic feel.

My grandfather would get upset if grandma used his Lave soap, so she would use her soap …

FINALLY installed my front lip, after buying it over 2 years ago. Three threaded rivets and some 3m double-sided tape and it's on there nice and solid.

WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR FRS TODAY?

I have GSpeed gas pedal kit, but didn’t like how high pedal came up, so I’ve cnc down the spacer bout 1/4”~1/8”, which made the pedal in perfect spot.

Before


After cnc down


But now, pedal stopper tab was way too high that I can push the gas pedal 100%. Prob let me bout 65%. So I’ve measure the pedal distance and grinder down the tab, so allow me to push the pedal 100%.

How it used to look like. Left stock tab, right GSpeed tab.


Left stock tab again, right is after grinding it down.

I have been thinking about one of the two available pedal spacers, but both are 1" and I'm afraid that is too much. Looks like shaving it down to 1/2" is a possibility!
