First time poster. Lots of great info here about a fantastic little car. 2017 86, just added 949 Racing 6UL 17x8 wheels in tungsten with 245/40. Lowering springs are next.

Hello! I just bought a 10 series manual. Probably gonna slide it. Looking into the turbo kit for it. These are the dealer pics. I'll probably start a journal here.

Are Edelbrock springs stock? This has some road rash on the undercarriage too. Does this look lowered?

Welcome. Car is definitely lower than stock going by your pictures. Just have a look at the header for the forum up on the top of the page to get an idea of what stock wheel gap looks like. Just do your part not to add any more rash to it.

Welcome! Not sure Edelbrock made em.. probably Eibach lowering springs. But it's definitely lowered.. Even more than mine on coilovers. That's probably a rough ride, suspension and wheels would be the first on my list after I made sure everything else was looking ok on it. That may not be the only thing on it that's not OEM so I'd be looking out for that.

Good afternoon!

I recently sold my 2002 Boxster and I'm shopping for a new weekend toy.

After driving the Mustang (a long time dream car) and the 86, I've decided it will be the 86. The Mustang had plenty of power, but felt like a boat.

I'd love an M2 or something, but I don't want to spend that kind of money on a new one and don't want the stupid high maintenance costs of luxury brands anymore.

That's the ones. I saw red and an E word in script and fell back to American. Also, I want to know who had 10 Series #1369. This has a bunch of work that was undone. I want to know how they had it done up. And they left this in the back seat.

Hey everybody, Just picked up my BRZ a few days ago and joined the forum. Pics and build thread will be started soon.

Hi all,

Just purchased a 2013 FR-S as an occasional driver. No longer need a daily since I am out of work with back issues. Went looking for something fun and somewhat collectible. Looked at a couple of Vettes but they needed too much work in the price range I was looking at. I loved the concept behind these cars from the beginning, wasn't crazy about the looks, but thought they were above average. Turns out I really like the suspension humps above the wheels. Definitely fun to drive.

Previous owner from Oregon apparently didn't turn over the fob for the keyless start and entry so I will be doing some research to determine what I need to make it functional or disable it so if they still have the fob they can't walk up and drive away with my car. It has the start button and a button on the outside of the drivers handle so apparently a bit of work was put in doing a clean full install. I have done a little reading of threads about the system, but if you have a link to the best information it would be appreciated.

I suspect the car was doing track days as well. Holes have been worn through the floor mat and the carpet under the brake and clutch pedals, it has knurled Gorilla lug nuts, and the front plate has been set up to attach magnetically. They apparently ran into something with the front bumper and deformed it. I should have inspected it closer but thought I had a good idea what would be needed for that from the pictures. Turns out I was wrong. I'm going to have to file down part of the lower lip and fill and sand to fix the impact point and there are also stress fractures and scuffs elsewhere in the paint on the bumper that is going to require a repaint. Cadillac dealership didn't replace the drivers side marker light that is broken or even pop the grill back in place which I found surprising. Turns out that when it was hit the drivers side fender flexed as well. I popped out the side marker to look it over and the paint on the fender above it chipped off and revealed a rust stain there, so more sanding and painting to make it right.

If anyone recognizes the car (mostly from the description) I'm interested in any history (and the fob if I can get it).

Hi all, just picked up a lightly modded '13 FR-S I'm loving it. Before this I owned 2 FBO 335i's and a FBO M4. I've only owned this tiny car for about a week and I absolutely love it! I'm hoping to learn more on the hands-on/mechanical side using this car.

Finally someone else with the setup. I am getting my Flash Editor this week. I have a JDM Toyota 86 though so I guess there is that difference. Did you get this sorted out?

Toyota 86 in the building!
