JoeBoxer FR-S build thread

Haven't done much so far just tint and led interior lighting. I have my subs and amp here just have had no time for install. My goals are to have a little faster and better looking car without going to extreme, i like the way it handles so much stock i'm scared of doing too much and throwing off the balance.

Thanks to Adam at No Limit Motorsport, Chris at TiTAN Performance, and all the guys at Motiv Concepts

Suspension: Tein H Tech springs with OEM camber bolts, SRT strut bar coming soon

Wheels/Tires: 18x8.75 XXR 530 +35 Hyper Silver, 235/40R18 Nitto Motivo tires

Performance: Motiv Concepts Test Pipe, Cosworth air filter, Perrin crank pulley, Visconti tune, exhaust coming soon

Exterior/Interior: 5000k HID Elite kit from TheRetrofitSource.com, clear corner lamps, Silverstar turn signal and back up bulbs, Perrin shorty antenna, JBL MSBassPro SQ subwoofer system

My bad i will take some tomorrow its looking all stock for now, forgot to mention the clear corners going on too. What do you guys think about doing the Interlagos in gold? I'm going to go with a white/gold theme so maybe getting the Beatrush chassis bracing instead of Cusco.

Me too, you guys have been great I can't wait to represent Motiv. My next plans are HID's, Beatrush front strut bar, E85 tune once its switchable on the fly, and I plan on doing a brake rotor/pad upgrade probably after winter.

What do you guys think about cosmetics though? About the only thing i'm looking at are tailight overlays and possibly the carbon fiber Downforce front lip. Also clear front markers forgot about those.
