Hi everyone, I'm not technically new here. I just changed my name/account from a vendor account. I've been in custom car audio for almost 15 years now and just want to share write-ups, build logs, and anything else I can. I was previously at simplicity in sound which is where my vendor name said I was at, but left there and moved out of the state... no one ever got back to me on a name change, so here I am Hi again!

What's up guys! First post here and first time using the forums!
Just got my 2016 FR-S in SoCal! Been wanting one since I saw it in 2012 and finally pulled the trigger after getting a great deal from Scion getting discontinued. I've had a Mustang and Mazda 3 for years and can't wait to start making this one my own.
Let me know if there's any meets in SoCal, feel free to PM me!

Hi everyone, I'm new here...
Just placed an order for a 2017 Toyota 86 6MT Limited with Black on Black exterior and interior...
Will take deliver end of this month...
I'm from Taiwan, but also grew up in New Zealand and had previously worked in the automotive industry for over 6 years, ranging from Japanese brands to European and Italian cars...

Thank you in advance as there are loads of info to read up on and help me brainstorm some ideas on what mods I want to do to my new 86....

I still own a AE92 FXGT in stock form, want to keep it as original as possible while I have another AE111 20V Blacktop with lots of mods as that is my track car in NZ...

Kind regards
Phillip

New to forums! First Post

What's up guys. I'm a new owner of a 2015 Scion FR-S! By new I mean I've had it for about 4 months now. This is also my first time ever joining a forum so I am very new to this. It took me about 15 minutes to learn how to upload pictures. Anyways, I've done a few things to my car already and I am beyond loving it more and more everyday! Ive got images below of how she looks up to date. It started out as the flat base stock model brand new off of the lot. Also, looking for opinions on what I should or could do to enhance the exterior look of my vehicle! Thanks!

Hello, congratulations and welcome ......

If you plan on driving that machine in the winter, you might consider getting some winter tires ......or, come first snow/ice, your car will act like a hog on ice .....

Thumbs up Heavy Snow Day

I was driving my brand new 2016 Scion FRS with Blizzak winter tires they grip pretty good bang for my bucks it was so much fun to drive even I was slipping left and right I was able to control it no problem. Even uphills and downhills heavy snow using that snow button option helps + winter tires. I am happy with my FRS baby#2.

Hey everyone, I'm brand new here
Im currently trying to get my hands on a white automatic frs (Yeah Yeah all you stick shift master race people lol)
Ever since I first heard of/saw the car a couple years ago I fell in love with it and I've wanted it since. And now I'm trying to trade in my current car (2006 jeep liberty) for a used frs. The hunt is ongoing but hopefully I'll find one in my price range and without any (noticeable/more than minor) accidents soon!
