86_Freak - Build for DD/C Street/HPDE duties

Since I am going to build my FR-S for C Street this year, I decided to start a thread for it.

I have actually had my 2015 FR-S since November 2014 and have done a few modifications. I will be keeping all the aesthetic mods that I have done, but I will have to take the majority of the performance mods off in preparation for C Street.

Mod List:
- License Plate and Reverse LEDs (Installed 11/29/14 @ 1,100 miles)
- 4300K HIDs (Installed 12/3/14 @ 1,500 miles)
- Toyota Emblems (Installed 12/28/14 @ 2,600 miles)
- 35% Front/20% Rear Window Tint (Installed 1/19/15 @ 3,396 miles)
- Enkei PF01 Wheels - 17x8 +35 (summer wheels)
- Blitz Filter (Installed 3/25/15 @ 6,200 miles)
- CarboTech HP10 Brake Pads (track-use only)
- Borla Cat-back Exhaust (Installed 6/13/15 @ 10,450 miles)
- Interior and Trunk LEDs (Installed 11/25/15 @ 16,152 miles)
- Sidemarker, Front Turn Signal, and DRL LEDs (Installed 12/14/15 @ 16,950 miles)

Mods that will be removed in preparation for C Street:
- Brake Master Cylinder Brace
- Stainless Steel Brake Lines
- Motiv Front Pipe

I got all my parts in to turn my FR-S into a C Street car. Enkei RPF1 wheels, Koni shocks, Strano front sway bar, TRD springs, camber bolts. I'll be taking the Rival's off and putting some RE-71R's on. I haven't decided if I want to upgrade the brake pads yet. I do have some CarboTech XP10 pads, but those are for the track only and way to aggressive for auto-x.

Installed my Koni shocks, TRD springs, and Strano sway bar yesterday. I decided to save some money and go with the inserts as they are ~$80 cheaper and they don't have cheater holes.

Cutting the OEM shock and the installed Koni insert.


Doesn't look too much different. I still need to switch back to the OEM rubber brake lines.
