trueno86power 2015 Toyota 86

Past builds on my ex-2013 Scion FR-S Whiteout: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=87059

Hi guys!

In the middle of the summer, I've trade in my '13 FR-S for a '15 FR-S... In the first summer of owning the '13, my FR-S have been hit by a severe hail storm... The body job was okay but still it bugged me to have a new "rebuild" car. This is the main reason why I've changed my FR-S. Love the little upgrade of the '15 too!

I've sold a lot of parts of my '13 FR-S to make the setup on my new '15 FR-S more simple. No lips, no stickers, nothing. Lowered, a nice set of wheels and a stupid loud exhaust :P The old FR-S did a lot of track time... but this one will mostly be a street car. I do track event for 8 years already. Don't know why, I'm kinda less motivated so I'll take a break for 1-2 years. That why I run street tire this time !

It perform great on the track but still confy enought to take a ride. As you can see, I love parts shipped over night from Japan. I'm really picky (Near OCD haha) so everything on my car is done by myself, torqued to spec and aligned perfecly :P

I'm really happy about the change I've done, Firestorm look so good when proprely maintain.

I've refreshed the look of my car with a full Toyota 86 conversion. Exterior badge, 86 AirBag cover, key case and I even change the radio for a Toyota one. Even if it's a simple mod, the car look more mature with the Toyota's logo.

Hope you will enjoy!

I've installed my new tires, cleaned/painted my brakes and re-installed my OEM brake pads since I won't track it next summer. Can't wait to try the tires!

Not at all ! This spec (17X9 +38) is really a no-brainer to fit.

Got like -2.0 of camber in the front (with the slotted shock bolt of the ST coilovers) and a natural rear camber of -2.6. Lowered app. 2".

So I can track it & drive it on the street without any issues

nice, because i love the overall look of the 9' on the twins but read alot of fitment issues with et35 but wondered how you handled with a slightly different setup, i will be along the same lines, i want a fun cruise type car that can handle an occasional track day

In my opinion, this is the perfect way to build a twin. Nicely done!

Thanks man

I've updated my text a little bit since you guys look to like my ride :P

I have just finished the intallation of the K&N Typhoon intake system. I can't wait to test it out. It's not for HP at all, it's mostly to dress up the engine bay and to hear the 4U-GSE a little bit more :P

I've took the car out last weekend for a Virtual Dyno run with the new K&N intake. I don't have any stock pull SAE corrected sadly, but it's the first time that I do over 170WHP SAE corrected from my previous testing (with the ex '13 FR-S).

A/F is a little bit instable, ECU was still relearning from the new intake. A do a cupple more run to see if it's more stable. I may need to rescale my MAF !
