N_A's daily FRS

Hi guys,

First off, thanks to all you guys for all the great information (and some good ol bs-ing). I've learned a lot about the bulletins, DIY's, and all the little things one may want to know about the twins. Like many of you, I've been following the 86 since the concept was announced. When the stars finally aligned, I knew I had to get one. This is the perfect daily driver for me. It'll get some track time eventually. But for now, I'm just happy every time I get in this car.

I'm a member of several other forums as well. Some of my old cars are:
92 240sx coupe - Stock, no drifting for me.
93 MR2 - One of my favorite cars ever. Too bad most of them are junk now.
01 S2000 - Honda's best creation IMO.
02 Protege LX - Most reliable thing ever.
97 Miata - No A/C.
10 Mini Cooper Non S
and few bikes in between.

Bought the FRS new last year. you guys know what a stock one looks like. Here are some current pictures.

Hope you guys like it.

Here are some pictures of my old rides just for kicks.

@N_A Could you post or pm me any videos of your exhaust note?
I have the Q300 atm and was wondering what difference the Berk HFC FP would do.

Thanks in advance.

@N_A looking back, asking for you to put together video may of been asking to much.

Maybe you could just give me your opinion then. Would you say your exhaust setup is noticeably louder then the in cabin one of the cat-back only one of this video?
