GReddy Scion FR-S Makes First USA Public Appearance at Cars & Coffee in Irvine, CA - Page 11 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

looks like all that was needed to make this car look good was to get the right alloys and lower it a bit...

I can see more improvements though. Changing that lexusy headlights. But damn, its sexy in black!

What's wrong w/ the headlights? They are toned down from the version you will see on the GT86 in the UK

Moto-P, can you elaborate on this? Did Greddy installed a 5x100 to 5x114.3 adapter (ie. kics) or the hub has already been swap with a 5x114 unit?

What tire sizes are installed on this car? Anybody catch the VIN? Does it start with FT86....? Are they using 86 in the chassis/VIN code?

Oh god i really wish that fad would die. I only plan to lower it a bit to set a proper stance granted that it also benefits the handling. Seeing a FRS on bags scratching the floor is inevitable i suppose.

Does anybody know how much drop this is?

I was meant to say the rear lights :p my bad

Polish Person · 12-13-2011, 06:04 AM

Has anyone asked about the rear seat space? How did that look?

Dstretch33 · 12-13-2011, 08:50 AM

It looks great!

No worries, I am sure somewhere down the line they will come out with various versions or APC/TYC will make some

That engine sound was wholly uninspiring, sounded very stock (which I say with a negative connotation). No doubt some aftermarket tuners will have more aggressive sounding systems so I guess I'll just have to wait to see what they can come up with.

I'm curious how it will sound compared to my S.

Keep the stock exhaust from being too crude and boomy please, no fart cannon needed. Too many so-called "sport" catbacks create a nasty resonance/drone at certain rpms that is a quick killjoy on the highway. People who have a need to be heard 2 blocks away can option down as desired.

Nice meaty grumble!

redthree · 12-14-2011, 04:23 AM

I have a question about the back seat. I know it is tiny but is there actually any room for people's legs. I know its not going to be comfortable. How is the room compared to the last gen celica?
