Turned around looked at it lovingly and gave it a reassuring wave that I would be back at 5:00pm for the drive home

Yeah im running the HKS dual resonated FP, Yours is basically the knockoff but looks great for half the price. Along with HKS Legamax premium catback which is another quiet style like the Q300. I also have the Gruppe-s UEL catless header the combination sounds great with a rumble and no rasp or drone. The only thing with no cats is a bit of smell. If you go with a header I would consider a catted version not for the sound but for some smell reduction.

I'm going for the same sound as Anthony (he has a video on youtube), and hopefully flames. I can hear the afterfire already, just need get the cat out of the way... It could take a while though as it looks like the OP isn't in stock.

I changed my transmission fluid to Motul300, adjusted my reverse lockout so I don't get locked out of 2nd gear when shifting fast out of first, and relocated my USB port to the glove box. I will put a toggle switch in the blank spot for something eventually. I like keeping my ipod in the glove box, I don't need everyone who walks by my car seeing the telltale white cable....

Well, not today, but very recently a first track day for my FR-S.

I've been so hesitant, but did well and most important, had a great time.
I've put a few mods on my car, but in this case I let it out to run.

Ah, this is why I bought a *black* cable! Would've saved you a lot of work

I'm trying my best to wait for Black Friday, so I can stock up on parts at a better price.

Hi guys I'm a little confused by what is written in the owners manual concerning the headlights

I know that when you put the handbrake down with key to on position, the drl lights come on but it says in the manual that the headlights come on too at a lower intensity .

For me it's only my drl that comes on and not the headlights

Sorry for my confusion and thanks in advance

They mean the drl. The drl and high beam are the same light. I disabled my drl because I have custom halos

Swapped most of the black interior parts back to their silver counterparts.
Removed anything I changed underhood.

I said goodbye to my Monogram this morning. Hopefully it will find a good owner.

The kouki steering is odd. It's even thinner than the already pretty thin FR-S one.

Pictures / FS thread soon

Ah ok by headlight I thought they were referring to the low beam, I knew the drl and high beam were the same light

DRL = daytime running lights and high beams

Headlights = low beams

Hmm that funny plastic burning smell may have explained itself then

I was honestly worried about the length of it before I put it on. It does look shorter than the stock one by a little bit. Although once I got under there and put it on. Fitment was perfect.

Yeah down under we aren't meant to touch anything to do with the cats. We can do exhaust work, however the police can be fairly strict on it. Although you have to be doing the wrong thing for them to pull you up on it.
