Your car really looked amazing in the OG bronze TE37s. One of my favorites. Do you remember the specs on those wheels? I know they were 5x114...

update (6/14/2017)



rewired and soldered the BRZ headlamps to work with OEM FRS ballasts.

Also mounted our new custom splitter to fit with the FRS CS front lip.

JRSC kit going on this week, waiting on a tune from delicious.

Little update as of 4/7/2018

- New custom 4 point roll cage w/ custom x-bar + gussets - powdercoated pearl white
- TE37 Bronze 5x100 OG 18x9.5 +36 (System Motorsports exclusive batch, 1 of 5 sets in existence)
- New Rotrex C30 Supercharger Unit (Old one experienced catastrophic failure)

Things in the pipeline:

- Varis x Original Runduce full kit
- Full 5x114.3 Hub conversion (again)
- TE37 OG Bronze 18x10.5

Things have drastically slowed down for this car as I am currently in the process of getting myself on the waitlist for (hopefully) the new 2018 FK8 Type R Touring . It is in my best interest to keep things moving slowly for this car as I begin to transition towards other priorities in life. Work is calling, but the FRS will remain a weekend car for me. Hope to keep this as active as I can.

Is there a new kit releasing from Varis?

Hi. Its June 6, 2018. Here's a little update on the FRS. Switched to 225 tire width up front. 235 tire width in the back.

I also picked up a brand new 2018 Civic Type R from a Honda dealership in Northern California, in Black Pearl of course. The Civic is currently my DD.

Preparing the FRS for Wekfest SJ 2018 on July 1, as it is our shop booth car. Did an oil change in my garage over the weekend (at 43k miles). The Type R is currently stock, with a plethora of parts currently on the way (which I will not elaborate on in this forum thread). Oddly, I enjoy driving the FRS more. The FK8 feels very cushioned and detached from the road. I hope to continue updating this thread.

More pics. Been lacking motivation recently, forgot to put on my chargespeed side skirts. Felt bold one night and decided to pull the FRS out of the garage and get some updated pictures in a new business park. I am very content with how the car is currently sitting.

more pics to come in the near future

Some daytime pics. Excuse the bumper-less front. I smashed my chargespeed lip on some road kill, so it is currently getting its gel-coat and weave repaired. Hope to have that back on sometime this weekend.
