ModBargains.com/PASMAG/MotoIQ.com - StayCrushing FRS - Track Conversion
Hey guys!
I am giving one last hurrah at finishing this car, a few of you may recognize the car from this photo of how it all originally began. Ill go through a few of the stages and what the current end goal is and who I will be working with, as well as showcasing a few parts that I believe are a solid option for us FRS/BRZ owners. Naturally every build begins for different reasons, mine ultimately stemmed from a render of a widebody kit that popped up over 4 years ago. The reason why I am posting it on this ModBargains account is due to the fact that I not only work here, but part of the build will take place here, as well as some of the parts have been sourced through here. its just easier to track all of the different parts of the build that way. Other media outlets to look for are: PASMAG.com PASMAG - Magazine MOTOIQ.com ModBargains.com - blog IG: @pasmag @motoiq @ModBargains @modauto @staycrushing I will be not only providing the parts I use, but also links to various parts of the installs and installed photos as well as in depth PERSONAL reviews on the parts. I don't think many of you, like me care about the specs of something, more so the benefits of it over the features. This car will be changing from its "Internet hype/stance" phase to a true hardcore performance car with the help of the crew from MotoIQ.com For those of you that have not heard of MotoIQ, Mike and his crew are the ones responsible for Dai Yoshihara's FD car set up and he is and extremely experienced and well versed as well as well recognized individual in the automotive world. His knowledge of everything down to even tire compounds and alignment are what allow his teams to have that edge of even 1/10th of a second over the competition. As updates come through on this build, All various platforms of media including this thread will be updated. |
