I'm staying stock. It's a garage queen until spring unless we get clear dry days.

Question! How is the ride quality on the brz/frs on real chicago roads. Its hard to get a good opinion since everyone that reviews these cars are on nice smooth roads on the west coast. I plan on getting a white brz in febuary once the snow dies down.
Don't own a Brz yet, but southside Chicago is terrible for any car. Really crappy roads. There has been plenty remodeling on pulaski, cicero and even Ashland but honest lots of em still crap. Just gotta try your luck and find the best path.

New Aurora IL FRS Owner

Hey Guys,

It's great to see other people in the area that are so hyped up about their FRS / BRZ as I am. I picked up a Hot Lava 6 MT FRS on Thursday 12/20. Hope there will be a FRS / BRZ meet up this summer.

I have spent all Saturday ordering parts . This is what I have orderd so far.
Advanced Keys' Smart Entry and Push to Start System
GT86 Emblemsfor a rebadge mod.
Eibach Sportline springs
18 x 17.5 Black bd wheels with Hot Lava painted inserts
Mud flapps ? (might be going back)

My wife has now cut me off for now.

Hope to see some FRS / BRZ owners this summer !

Welcome aboard Milko.
I'm sure there will be plenty of meets in 2013.
Looks like you got a Darth Maul theme going there...
