Our Raven FR-S and Sibling Time Attack tC - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

SnapOv3st3r · 02-17-2014, 11:33 PM

Truth be told, I've been around for a lot longer than what my profile indicates. Some may remember me, others may not since this forum has changed and grown in member count. But I've been here the whole time and just keeping my comments to minimum. That is until now. Proudly on our 2nd day of owning our Raven FR-S.

All Stock currently with a few factory options:

-BeSpoke Navi
-Spoiler
-Fogs
-and maybe some other stuff that I haven't found out about.

She has an older sibling. We didn't plan on having another black car, it just panned out that way. More pics to come of the FR-S, but hard to get any daylight pics during the week.

Just a few of the Older sibling. 400+hp Time Attack tC (current work in progress)

To many mods to list. Fully built motor + GT3076R PTuning Spec RS turbo setup

How it's currently sitting. Just have to go back up to PTuning to pick up the crate motor build they did for me. CP Pistons, BC everything in the head, Manley Rods...etc...etc. Was at 330whp on PTuning's dyno on the stock motor. Bumping up to 400whp and 7800rpm redline for starters with the new fully built motor. Will up boost once a more solid solution for the trans is worked out that will hold up to track duties.

A teaser pic I got a few weeks back. Motor is complete now though.

Rythmnsmoke! I used to have a white tC. I was on CStC as Fancy as well. I remember seeing you on the strip at Kilkare for Exposed a couple years ago. Always loved that tC!

Thanks man. Yea I was just running a full exhaust during Killkare and everything else "power wise" was stock. Wish they would do another event like that one. Preferably one with a track day attached and not have to be pace car'ed....lol

Good boosted power, but keep it simple and clean perhaps. I'm thinking some XD9's would set it off, Ohlins coilovers along with a GT3076R...lol.

Thanks man, much appreciated. Great to finally have an FR-S. I was trying to hold out to see what the next Gen was going to be like, as well as what the Supra was going to turn into. But got a good deal on this one so, bit the bullet.

Just a regular wash and then clay bar it using a spray wax as you go along.

Sent from somewhere.

I usually have Meguiar's Spray wax. I will have to pick me up a clay bar.

What all do you have planned for the car so far?

Ohlins coilovers, PTuning turbo System, and I'm leaning towards some Work XD9 wheels. Not sure if I want them in the bronze or the gray just yet.

I have to finish some things with the tC, and my wedding is coming up in Aug that I have to pay for, so will be stock for a good bit. I probably change out to some HID head light ballast/bulbs as the very first mod though.

One thing I have noticed while outside the car, not so much inside, is that it's a rather noisey engine...lol.
