Ducky's Tofu car, [bubble] - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

On July of 2014, I picked up my 2014 frs in raven because my civic was breaking down. It was a nightmare for a driver, head gasket was blown after the coolant pipe was fixed.

This was the last time I washed my civic. Her name was Misty

At first I was searching for another used car, then I came across a Audi TT Name: ImageUploadedByTapatalk1410318718.067825.jpg

As my parents was about to pay the down payment for the TT, TT was decline by them at the last minute, they said as a 2002 car, it would still be unstable and can be break down at anytime. So I searched for another car.

I was so excited about the car and my gf and I even came up with the name for the TT, she would be named bubble. (This name comes from the four circle of the audi sign)

My dream was always a frs, so I never even thought of getting one because my family didn't have much money after getting the house. The next day after my TT was rejected by my parents, I asked for an frs even though my dad insisted I get a 370 according to the power of the car. But I insisted to get a frs.

Then there goes the searching for an frs. I live in the Bay Area, coming from alameda, I searched for a white frs which was cheap and located in redwood city. By the time I got there, it was sold. Then I called the dealer on the way home and found one near home. The only one available was a raven frs. So there you have it. Raven it is!

My gf insisted that I keep the name bubble and pass it on this pretty lady.

After I got this car I couldn't stop smiling and talking about bubble for a week. I keep getting the nice ride bro, and thumbs up from other frs drivers. This is really the next best thing in my life.

After getting bubble, my gf keep saying a racecar is not a racecar if I don't have a spoiler. So the first thing I did was get a spoiler. Why? Because racecar.

The package was so big I can't fit it in.

Because I didn't want to drill any holes into my precious bubble, I decided to diy this spoiler Name: ImageUploadedByTapatalk1410321141.860477.jpg

I cleaned up the spoiled, filled the holes to prevent future rust and slap on them 3m and slap to on my trunk.

And of course, spoiler juice is required in this project! Name: ImageUploadedByTapatalk1410321914.929734.jpg

I was pretty happy with this spoiler and my car for now. Some say stock isn't enough power, for me coming from a civic, it's more than enough and very fun.

Lastly to make my tofu car complete, I picked up this decal last week and I'm getting a lot of attention for it. Name: ImageUploadedByTapatalk1410322036.587360.jpg

Cool! I live close to Alameda as well! Welcome to the community! Are you that one guy that I talked to for a quick minute about my car's front bumper, at Alameda Chiptole / Five guys? The guy that I talked to told me that his parents told him to buy a Black A/T FRS ot something haha.

ducky369 · 09-10-2014, 02:01 AM

Unfortunately, it wasn't me. I haven't been to 5 guys even though I live in alameda. And it's been a while since I was at south shore

My parents actually told me not to buy the frs, they insisted I get the 370 for the HP

But as takumi said, I only want to drive my 86

As I picked up my gf last week, I realize some asshole damaged my car when I parked on the streets of San Francisco.

It's in the repair shop now.
For now I will have to drive a chevy Cruze 2LT
which is paid by my insurance company..
I hate the cruze so much. I can't wait to get back in my baby!

ducky369 · 09-23-2014, 04:17 PM

So the whole passenger side except the door needs to be replace since it's one piece. The total cost is over 5k. Luckily it's cover by insurance
