C130NAV's Journy - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

So after a long time of not seeing my new car I have finally got the chance to show her off. I got my FR-S in Freehold this last November and after having here for about a month I only put 800 miles on her before getting hit by some idiot during the middle of the night in a snow storm. Of course the person left the scene and didn't leave a note or anything.

So from there I took the liberty of working on the outside verses getting the turbo kit. I just got all of the progress photos from the shop. For those of you who want to know what shop it is Ultimate Collision II in Wrightstown. I love there work just remember its not cheap but they provide quality.

Next stop will be a turbo or SC to make her as fast as she looks :-)

Well I decided to go with the SBD Turbo kit so I went out and got some injectors, fuel pump, turbo, and oil Cooler. I tore much of the car down last night to get the project going.

Not a fan of the bumper, but keep it up!

Btw assuming your username means you're a navigator on c-130's? If so cool stuff, I'm a 135 guy.

Glad you painted all that cf. That bumper is crazy

C130NAV · 03-23-2014, 09:56 PM

Thanks for the comments! I searched forever to find a front end I loved. It took some time for the bumper as it was shipped over from C-west. It sat in a customs container for a few days :-(

@ Omar Yes I'm a C-130 guy. I work at AMC Test and Eval here at JBMDL so I got some 135 guys with me.

Please do suspension before you throw power at it

C130NAV · 03-24-2014, 12:06 AM

@asianbob I thought about it was looking at coils with Phantom cups. besides looks why would you suggest the suspension before power? I'm all ears :-)

asianbob · 03-24-2014, 08:49 AM

Because suspension is far more important than power. What's the use of power if you can't control it. A proper suspension setup will give you better handling and traction. Safety first.

looks like a catfish

ZionsWrath · 03-24-2014, 10:43 PM

What are you going to do for fender liner? Or you just letting the engine bay get dirty?

Like that hood

C130NAV · 03-24-2014, 10:45 PM

@Zion The fender liners bolted right back up so everything is back to stock underneath.

@Stealth now that you mention it I does kinda look like one. LOL :-)
