I'm happy about this because I can customize my FRS my way with the aero bits, roll bars, suspension, wheels, and tires I want without that feeling that I'm still missing the 'better' powertrain from the factory.

i am also happy about this as well, i agree.

I like them too, but not sure I could afford them at this price: http://ishiimotors.com/trd-sf2-wheel.html ($1780.00/ea)

Good to hear the TRD models are coming out.

About time. Since Toyota in Dubai made an announcement during launch in June that they'd make JDM TRD parts available to all 86 owners, come August.

Looks like we know what to expect from a release series. Now we just need Zeus to make it official. BAM!

from the cost of individual TRD components this model will cost 26k base + 5k wheels + 12k brakes + 3k suspensions + 4K others = $50k? that's a lot of dough for a "limited edition" FRS so I doubt it'll be coming to the US

This would easily be 45-50K in the States based on the price of the TRD stuff...you can build your own ultimate street version
for much less, albeit without a warranty.

We will get everything but the brakes, and the wheels. The wheels are forged but probably not $5k forged wheels, they are only 18 inches, so they got to be cheaper.

Figure the release series 1.0 FR-S will be around $28K.....
It better have push start and those racing seats.....hehe!
