I think the exhaust tips are the same size, no?

FR-S VS 86

BRZPDX · 05-15-2014, 02:18 PM

Hmm they look to be the same diameter but they look like they may be shorter. They look very pushed in on the new FRS

Yeah same tips farther in for safety standards to avoid burn risk.

It has some noticible pearl in it… There's a 15 WRX STI with the Crystal white at Carr Subaru in Beaverton, if you wanna check it out. It's a few shades whiter than SWP without the cream/yellow hue.

They have to be different. The JDM ones are/can be pushed in all the way, and still long enough to come out past the bumper. The US ones are more than likely shortened due to regulations.

Looks like some sort of matte black color ? could be the lighting

Kimsey47 · 05-15-2014, 02:37 PM

Wow, nice to know I won't be missing out with my 86! To all those who were waiting for 2015 for the "turbo" version:

FyeaFRS · 05-15-2014, 02:37 PM

Sooo....shark fin antenna and what?... different tips on the same exhaust?

If there's anything else, it didn't jump out, which equates to worthless.

Down? The msrp on the '13 was 25,255 and '14 was 25,455..?

I think the biggest news in this is that the most popular color for the FR-S, Whiteout, is being discontinued and replaced by Halo Pearl. Wonder why?

Yeah when I installed my JDM ones I actually had to push them past the little built in bump stop thing because they stuck out way too far. Now they stick out about 1/4 inch and you cant see the back end of them like you can in the new scion pic

Were the knee pads only on the monograms? I coulda sworn I read somewhere they were added to 2014 models but now removed for 2015?

If you have a current model then why would you care? Shock retuning and increased stability. Minor but they are changes.
