FR-S needed in Miami.

Hey guys, I have been working with NIA Auto Design as a test vehicle for some upcoming parts. First up is custom eyelids and other stuff will be in the future. Anyway, they are needing an FR-S for about an hour to do a final test and I simply can't get down there from Orlando. Is anyone willing to help out? I'm sure they will give you a deal on the upcoming parts if your willing to help. Please let me know ASAP and I will get you in contact with them. Thanks!!

What does it consist of? I may be able to help since I'm in West Palm Beach, not too far.

He just needs a car literally for 1 hour to test fit the eyelids. I drove down there a couple weeks ago and he used my car for a weekend to make the prototypes but now he needs a car for an hour just to finalize some things before he sends them into production.

He can use my car. It's at Treadstone Performance in Miami being used to R&D a turbo kit. I can coordinate with them on a good time, if needed.

It probably needs to be specifically an FRS right? Not a BRZ. i know some FRS's down here. Let me see if I can get one.

Yep. There's a thread in the forced induction section, but they've already started tuning it with 4-5 psi. They're getting a bracket for the wastegate actuator machined to keep it from hitting on the car. It keeps getting stuck open, preventing any higher boost. It should be ready soon. Also, I'm getting springs and rims put on next week!
