'Sloane' - Cali first time build

Hi all. Meet Sloane, my Asphalt MT FR-S named after the impeccable character from HBO's Entourage.

I figured I would start this to track my build plans, progress, and receive feedback.


Day 1 Picked the car up on 6/1/2012



Summer 2012 Detailed and Opti-Coated the car




March 2013 Got a little carried away cleaning the car. Did a small detail job, excuse the filter


June 2013 (1st anniversary present )
TRD CAI Intake
TRD Catback Exhaust





March 2014
Lowered on RCE springs + installed FT86SF UEL Catted header


October 2014
New wheels & rubber! Rota Grid-V 17x9 e35 Speed Bronze wrapped in Hankook Ventus Evos



November 2014
OFT Stage 1 UEL tune installed


Track day bro!


March 2015
40,000 Miles on CA backroads



June 2015
Where the car stands now


Bear with me as this is the first car I have owned and the build will be slow, yet done tastefully.

Update: June 2013.

Finally got around to installing the TRD Cold Air Intake and Catback Exhaust (See pictures in 1st post) Must say, great improvement! Mod bug is starting to hit...hard.

It usually does. If this is your first time modding take your time to research each and every part you are going to put on the car (benefits, drawbacks, etc.) and don't skimp by getting cheapo ebay crap (you don't seem to be the type anyway).

So far, the car is coming along and your planned mod list sounds good :happy0180:

Thanks for the comments! Doing my best to personalize and enjoy the car while keeping the car as clean and as balanced as it was from day 1.

Also trying to keep a record of everything in one place
