Well you've got a cold air intake so that's a little further than me the only actual performance mod I've got is a muffler delete. It's more for the sound than performance, but I love how it sounds.

Haha sound is what matters(; We're in Ohio. No point in being able to go 150 unless you're tracking or going to Kilkare. I got that intake more for sound rather than the groundbreaking 12HP it gives xD

& have you ever seen Sammy's Fuel Mart by the highway and across from Bob Evans on Woodman? That's my family's store

& I've only heard about the ones by the mall at Barnes & Noble, from my friends, Wednesday Nights at 10 or something. Haven't ever been though. & I haven't heard of the Miller lane meets either.

Btdubs; if you're looking for tails, check this out.

I'm not positive whether or not I'll join in on that just yet lol, but it's getting pretty cheap :b

Moar updates! Fog lights and muffler delete are installed. Just got my black interior in the mail yesterday, thanks @Fizz Installed everything but the door levers. Not sure if I'm gonna try something crazy looking for the shifter trim and steering wheel trim, but since I now have three shifter trims I suppose I can mess around a little LOTS of miles are going on this thing soooo quick, especially since I just drove it to North Carolina and back for the Rod Run in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. But we did see a Bugatti Veyron there, which was absolutely sick to see in person!

Lucky sevens!


And good old 86, currently I'm sitting just over 9,100 miles...



Fog lights!


Rest stop photoshoot on the way down to North Carolina




This one is my favorite


This is an HDR iPhone 5 picture, pretty nice!

Kilkare is A LOT of fun when I'm driving my car. I went up for an auto cross just to get a little more used to my car, helped me a lot with learning about when it breaks traction and shift points, etc. And I drive by Sammy's Fuel Mart all the time! That's really cool!

The Barnes & Noble one is the one by the Dayton Mall, that meet gets pretty big most nights. I may be heading out to it tonight, hopefully me and my buddy will figure out a plan to get my civic, 86, and his forester xt out there. If I decide to get new tails anytime soon I've really been thinking about getting the Tom's taillights with a red lens, thanks for the heads up though!

I might just come up tonight hahaha.

I'll be honest, I'm a complete amateur when it comes to cars :/
My FR-S is my first real car that I plan on taking damn good care of. It's not only my baby, but it's my chalkboard and as I mod, I learn. Before the FR-S, I didn't even know what an intake was.. Lol... Drove a Honda Odyssey for 3 years, didn't care for cars at all unless it was a Lamborghini or a Ferrari. So yeah, it's a huge experience. If you do go tonight, and I manage to make it, I'm psyched to see your car!

Back when I got my '00 Civic Si it was my first car and I knew absolutely nothing about them, my first mod was a cold air intake and it took me a couple hours to do

The FR-S/86 is my first RWD car and I've already learned sooo much about how it acts. If you ever want to learn how your car acts when driving more aggressive I'd say you should definitely check out the auto cross events at Kilkare by MVSCC. It's a great learning experience and the people are really nice and helpful.

I'll see if my buddy wants to head out to the meet tonight, I would like to go because there probably won't be that many left this year!

Ahhh couldn't make it tonight :l Something came up. I'll see that car of yours someday though!

It's all good man, you didn't miss too much. Not too many people came out last night.

Been almost a year since this has been updated...

Still at stock ride height, but I have some new wheels. Springs and front camber bolts still have yet to be installed as well as my better shifter bushing and transmission bushing. Most recent pictures from a local Subaru dealership car meet, photos taken by DKFX Photography

Haven't seen too many people rocking these wheels, except for @GuerillaRacing. I'm loving the classic meatier look of the 16" wheels and tires.

Any updates on this beauty?
