Marchocais' Build Thread

Influenced by:

Takumi788's Thread

I figured I would start my own build journal. I'm a slow builder but I need a place to keep my crap in order plus I want to start asking questions and stuff! I'll try to keep this updated.

Goals:
Short term - a daily driver that I can take to HPDE events and maybe autox here and there. I prefer HPDE but they are few and far between up here in the Finger Lakes, NY and they always seem to be on weekdays! Stupid work.

Long term- track, dedicated (like 5 years from now)

Car: White 2013 FRS

Current Mods:
Tires & Wheels
225/45ZR-17 Hankook RS3 on silver 17/8 +45 RPF1’s (track)
215/45ZR-17 Hankook Ventus V12 on stock wheels (street)

Engine/Exhaust
Open Flash Header
Open Flash Tablet Stage 2
HKS Drop in Filter
HPS Red Silicon Intake Hose

Brakes
Motul RBF 600 Fluid
StopTech Braided Steel Brake Lines
Project Mu NS400 pads (track(meh) & street)

Transmission
Motul Gear 300 75W90

Differential
Motul Gear 300 75W90

Interior/Exterior
Rally Armor Mud Flaps, Black
JPM Coachworks Black Alcantara wrap one piece dash, e-brake, center console, shift boot.

Currently Considering
Koni 1145-1053 Sport Shocks, complete front/rear strut kit w/ Eibach pro lowering springs
Velox Camber Plates

Nice to Have
Winjet JDM headlights

Some pictures from the header install - and you can see the red HPS intake tube as well.

Looks nice - I wish I could see it more easily from the engine bay! Maybe a shaved bay project is in the future?
