Nothing has changed at all.

Make sure you guys replace your crush washers when doing your oil changes!
Not $100 bucks for an oil change, they do the standard service at Honda dealerships for ~$45.

No I meant for an hour of labour

Very true I would never pay that for an oil change.

Syn oil is a lot more expensive tho which makes me think you aren't going to be able to get a change for 45~

Hey guys!!

Our FR-S made it onto the Drive network, thought I'd share here quickly

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puhX7b2BB7A"]The 350 HP VCMC Turbo Scion FR-S - TUNED - YouTube[/ame]

I'll be updating our other thread found here with more info, but thought the locals would like to see!

Hey guys,

New to the Scion scene but I have a white frs that I'd like to slowly build. Don't know too much about scion/toyota in terms of who makes what.
Looking to make the car more show than go.
Will definitely need some help with the build.
Radar is already in.
Sound system being put together.
Looking into an intake, exhaust, and a grounding kit.

I have a fairly large G37 group that meet up and I typically host most of the events. Maybe we can get together as a FR-S group?

PM with first and last name and sign in name with cell number. I'll send mine right back.

Here's the G

We do a couple meets already but it would be nice to have other people setup meets as well instead of only Dave and my 1 try haha

Sub to the meet up forums

Same Sena as on RS?

Wow! thats huge.

good luck with that. I have never replaced a crack winshield before but from what I heard you can grab a plate of truck and get it fixed by insurance

might be cheaper

OEM? Do you do the replacement at the dealership itself?
