Rented out the local track with a couple of buddies to see what kind of baseline I could get with the FRS as it sits.

Saw you had a master cylinder brace and SS lines both. Did you install those at the same time, or one at a time? How's the feel with both mods installed?

SS lines were installed first and those are where you're going to feel the most difference. I can see the master cylinder brace reduces the deflection, but I wouldn't say I could feel a huge difference. I think if you did the brace without the ss lines you would feel a more noticeable difference. Brake pedal is very firm and consistent compared to the OEM lines.

Looks much better than I would have expected..congrats.
And you have the advantage it will match the primer peeking through those nasty paint chips you'll inevitably get!
