Chasing the White Rabbit

Hi guys,

Name's Brian, obviously. I've been a member on the forums since before the twins were released, but I never got around to making a journal.

It's been almost a year of owning my FR-S. Drove her off the lot on June 22, 2014. That date is engrained into my memory. Might even buy a cake when it comes around.

Anyway, I usually drive out to the mountains when I get a chance, either Malibu, or Angeles Crest.

I'm not that into modifying my car right now, mainly due to expenses. Gotta pace myself.

So far these are the mods I've made to the car:

-Invidia N1 Exhaust (Titanium Tips)
-Rear Aftermarket Diffuser (just the plain plastic one)
-PlastiDipped the stock wheels (Black)
-Tinted the windows (35% front/25% rear)
-DBZ Shift Knob (JDM Yo! )

Plans for the future include:

XXR 527s (still contemplating sizes)
Coilovers (not sure what brand to pick)
TRD Body Kit or Rocket Bunny Kit (minus the wide fenders & wing)
Recaro seats
Flossy Shift Knob (DBZ knob is lighter than stock so it leaves something to be desired)


That's all that I can think of at the moment.
Thank you for checking out my FR-S.

Now for the pretty pictures.

I just bought some xxr527 18x8.75 +35 ...From seeing other pics, I think it will be a nice fit. You ever thought about the Enkei RPF1'S ?

Actually, I got the 6 star. I get the significance of 4, but I just didn't like the square pattern it makes.

The double spoke setup of the RPF1's doesn't feel right for the FR-S, to me at least. I prefer a clean single spoke design. If that makes sense.

Thank you! I've always wanted some shots with my car since it's basically an extension of me.
