Been lurking these forums for months, but I figured it's time to join the party since I have my baby now


I've had her less than 2 months, and with all that I've learned from this forum I've already got plenty of little mods :p. Gotta get that alignment in a few days for the springs I just installed this morning

Well day 5 of ownership saw me fill up with my first tank of gas. And a guy backed in to me at a stoplight. He put his rental car in reverse and backed into me while trying to change lanes.

Hi guys!

I've been stalking these forums for a while now, but finally decided to make an account and say hi.

I live in Niagara Falls, Ontario, and I've got a 2013 whiteout FR-S, TRD exhaust and intake, tinted windows, and a Kenwood DDX371 deck. I've just recently ordered a bunch of white LED lights off Ebay to spice up the look a bit. I really want to look into getting some blue/white headlights. I don't know anything about HID's or Xenon or whatever other options I have, so I'll be open to suggestions. I'm currently looking into doing the roof in Plasti Dip black. I think it will look great.

My wife and I have a baby on the way, so she's not thrilled with all my plans for the car since we should be saving money, but hopefully I can do some inexpensive upgrades to make it look more unique.

I look forward to talking with you guys!

About to pull the trigger on either a '15 or a leftover 10 Series that is sitting on a dealer lot at over $4k off. Not sure which to do. Either way, I'm excited to join the FR-S family!
Update us when you make the choice!

Hey guys! Glad to be a new member of this forum. Im from Canada, in the GTA and its been my dream to own this car for a very long time! Was a huge fan of the Initial D series as I played it a lot when I was a kid and to finally drive this car, it really is a blessing. I have a feeling this is going to be my first and last car.

Welcome, DeadStar7 .......

Congratulations on your up coming family addition.....

OK, time to stop it with the mods ..... you have everything your car needs.

When these come along, your priorities will change ...... so, save up ....

Yep, two will fit ..... if they don't get too big ..... and you don't go too far ....
