I wouldn't say I'm new, but haven't really posted that much until now because of school and my computer being a bastard. I've had my BRZ for a little over a year now.

I'm Brian from Rockford, IL. Just bought my 14' FRS for my 30th birthday (thats my excuse)

My last 3 cars





Here's the new one




After driving it for 400 miles now and doing a little rain drifting I would like to get a little lower with some wheels and put my Recaro/Nardi combo in it. Everything is great on this car and I hope we have a long standing relationship. Also, I can't wait to get back to drift days!

Hey everyone! So I go through this cycle where I have a car for about two years and get bored with it and get another. I'm coming from a 2012 Lancer and I swore I would keep that car longer but I came across a good deal on an FR-S (my cousin runs the lot and he sent me a picture of it, he knew I would bite) and even after thinking on it for a few days I eventually caved in to the sexiness and potential of this FR-S (plus I got a good deal). The only thing that worries me is Ohio snow, but I'll cross that bridge when I get there.


Here is my Lancer and mod list, they set it on the front lawn and sold the car the MORNING after I traded it in.

Exterior/Lighting
GTS Spoiler
OEM Front Extensions (GTS Fangs)
OEM Rear Diffuser
REVi Motorwerks JDM Projector Headlights

Plasti-dipped inner front bumper and grill
3M DI-NOC Carbon Fiber B Pillars

All exterior bulbs are now LED's, with load resistors where necessary
Burnt Tip RS Type Muffler
Interior
Cool White LED Upgraded Bulbs all around
3M DI-NOC Carbon Fiber Dash Trim
3M DI-NOC Carbon Fiber Shift Plate
3M DI-NOC Carbon Fiber Door Trim
Hardwired iRadar Smart System (iPhone app with radar detector interface)
DR Motoring Neo chrome shift knob
Custom trunk enclosure w/ purple cathodes
Audio
Pioneer DEH-X9500BHS Head Unit
10" Cerwin-Vega VMAX104 Subwoofer
Boston Acoustics GTA-500m amp
Tsunami RCA's
Kicker PK8 amp kit

Varrstoen Neo Chrome open ended extended lugs
225/40r18 Rubber
Tein S.Tech Springs
Rolled Rear Fenders
Callahan Drilled and Slotted Rotors
Callahan Ceramic Pads
Under the hood
Fujita Short Ram Intake
DC Sports Strut Bar
Colorshift painted shroud, select mounts, select areas on engine cover, and fuse cover












I plan to start an owner's journal thread right after this! I'll update my signature with the link for anyone interested. I have a bunch of parts on the way and some already installed. I've had the car for three days, I don't wait long!

Hi everyone!

My name is Paul and I'm excited to say that I will be getting my 2014 Scion FRS (Black) in a couple of weeks. For the last 9 years i've had a 2005 Mini Cooper..but I pumped to change it up with this new FRS. I'm a little concerned about the Canada winters up here but I've seen lots of BRZ's and FRS's around plowing through with their snow tires so it might not be that bad. I will post pictures when I get it. Glad to be apart of this cool forum!

Too bad you didn't get a chance to mod your Lancer much ......

Welcome to the group ...... the aftermarket folks must just love to see you coming ....

Hey guys Just wanted to say hi to the forum. I am finally in the cool kid club. I just bought my 2014 FR-S about 3 hrs ago. I am a long time auto enthusiast, with a bunch of cool cars in my history. (the real kind, not the Forza kind) Iv'e had a 98 GS-R, 05 Civic Si, EVO mr, and yet another GS-R. The latter GS-R is still in my garage, I will probably keep it forever. It is currently an type-R clone track and beat on car. I decided it was time to get a RWD car and figure out the drift thing. lol The fwd's can be fun, and honestly I found the EVO fast but boring. Looking to spend time with Jeremy Clarkson's favorite car! Is there any other StL members around?
