Sounds like Korean will do well. How does this sunday at 1pm at Seoul Garden sound? After that, go for a short cruise. I don't have that long for a cruise but I'll post a route tomorrow.

Also, I have a favor to ask the FRS owners here. Can someone measure the piston logo on the fender of the FRS? I'm looking for the width, (piston top to piston top) and the height (bottom of center 86 circle to top). I'm working on something that I may just use a badge for instead of trying to add the logo a different way. Thanks.

Not to change your plans, but there's a buffalo wild wings right next to seoul garden where we can actually sit on the patio and see the cars in the lot. If we get there early enough we may be able to get the front row of cars lined up. If not the parking lot is still huge and not used very much.

I'll join you guys at either Seoul Garden or BWW!

I've been seeing a lot more twins around AA lately.

Im getting hungry just watching this thread. Seoul Garden might be a little small if we have large group but its up to you guys.

Hey all!

Just joined the forum. I'm in the Novi, MI area. Is there an official "introduction" thread? Or is this about it?

Anyways, I'm always down for a cruise. I miss driving in the hills of Missouri.

Hey guys, just wanted to drop in to see how the MI folks are fairing. I may be moving there for a year for a position I may end up taking. I highly doubt I will be bringing my FR-S however, for those who may be interested in any modifications and feel they may be in over their heads I do installs. I have a shop here in AZ and have a pretty significant 86 clientele so there is very little I have not done on this platform. I also have shop access in MI so no driveway work crunched under a car with jackstands.

Anyway, I hope to meet up with some of you at some point. It seems that the 86 crowd there is pretty limited but that is to be expected given that it is MI where foreign cars are not generally the majority haha.

If you live in Surprise AZ.. you might know Greg Childs???? It's a long shot.. but you never know.

Anyways.. welcome to MI if you do move here. Always happy to have new 86 owners around.. especially if they are good at turning a wrench.

Welcome to the group here in MI.

Sounds like we're trying to put together another lunch/cruise soon. Hopefully you can make it..

eikond · 07-15-2014, 03:27 PM

I finally have my car back on the road.. it's been on stands for 2 weeks in the garage.

My Z brakes are installed in the front. I'll get out tonight and properly bed them and then bleed them once more and I should be all set. I'm doing a write-up on the project.. i'll share when I get it done.

I also did RCE front and rear swaybars while I had the car up.

Next round of mods will be rear brakes and short shifter and shift springs. Not sure when that will be.. but hopefully i can find a free weekend and some money for the rest of the brake parts I need.

Alright, which one of you took the '86' license plate from me!

Got a letter today saying that it cannot be issued since another applicant took it. Now I have to pick another one out.
