    Default Picked up my first new car...

    Haven't been on here in a while but i sold my is300 and picked up a 2013' FR-S

    It's been a couple of weeks now with less that 500 miles on it... onto the pics

    the day i picked her up



    picked up some Eibach pro-kit and jdm clear side markers



    also got the stocks powder coated all silver until my wheels come in, using this for future track time.

    They aren't EXACTLY the same. They have their subtle differences between the manufacturers. I dig the color though.

    both cars are made in the same factory in japan... only difference is the different front bumper and brz's come with a weird wing. other that some interior detail and led hid black housing head lights everything is the same. both parts with both cars.


    Thanks for the comments guys! Waiting on the rest of my parts, pics will be up soon.

    Read in motortrend or something along those lines that there are some differences in suspension tuning. Like one is more prone to oversteer than the other.
