I stuck a 1/2” drive, 450mm long breaker bar with long 19mm socket in the boot for removing wheels. It fits quite nicely in the well for the spare tyre, and I lined the area with 5mm EVA foam so it won’t be rattling.

I chose a Koken one, because I figured a Japanese car needs Japanese tools.

I always have trouble with the standard wheel brace they supply with cars, so one of my first purchases is generally a decent length breaker bar.

I slapped on some new wheels and also some headlight covers before putting her in the garage for some beauty sleep over the winter.

^ Well, Wally, I don't usually like white wheels, but THOSE wheels on your white car look good to me -

Washed it, and did grocieres. When I returned there was a Subaru next to me. The owner chatted with me as he also has a FRS that he stores away from the salt.

That's a pretty ideal winter "beater" I said.

Today I came up with a way to mount my OFT so I can use the real time data display.

The right angle OBD2 adapter I used has a switch so I can cut power to my OFT while my car is parked overnight or other long periods of time to prevent battery drain.

Installed new shifter and drift button. We Are Likewise - The Daytona Monogram, and The Monza

Getting ready to install a Jackson Racing Dual cooler.

Searching for front end weight savings. Slim pickins. I will have to work for it.
