Brought home 20 gal of E85 (closest station is 100+ miles away) on the way home from a trip. Gives an extra 50whp vs my 93oct tune on the FR-S I recently got. Going to spoil myself with some backroads cruising this weekend. I need to write someone in Alabama and tell them that some of us need E85!

The LED side marker bulbs I got with my clear side markers started to flicker after 6 years so I replaced them with VLED ones. The VLED ones are nice and bright. The build quality on the bulbs is just ok, but they seem to function well and have a 3 year warranty so I’m happy. To be safe I also sealed the side marker with silicon in case they were letting moisture in.

What are these steering wheels and how expensive??! They look awesome. I really like the stock Lotus type steering wheel, but mine feels a little slick, the PO really rubbed it a lot apparently. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I bought mine used locally. Their site and most retailers indicate they're discontinued, but Japan Parts still has it on their site, so maybe they have some left? They're definitely kinda pricey when new... https://www.japanparts.com/parts/detail/43185 Last edited by NLSP; 11-09-2020 at 05:58 PM. |

Put on the OEM mudflap kit and some Drambeenie risers. I like how the latter look, but I don't think I got the fit quite right or something.

he is using a blend is my guess. I normally use 5-6 gals per fill up of e85 to keep and e45-55 range.

Installed my VEMS wideband gauge! I pinned the connector after routing it along the firewall for a clean install.
The gauge has a separate input for EGT, boost, boost control, etc. I may try to configure it for oil pressure, we'll see. |

True, but so worth it. Not a daily, so it is easy to prioritize fun drives in it vs. using it to just get from point A to B. Don’t get me wrong, 93 is great fun in this car as well. In fact, can’t think of a time I did not enjoy driving it.
