Default Plans for 2012

Wazup family. Been a minute since I made a thread. Been stuck on the FR-S forums cause I plan on getting that car as my next RWD.

Anyhow, tC has some plans I'm hoping to work out towards end of summer. Looking to do a return fuel setup, brakes and possible bolt-in cage. This year I need to focus on safety now that I have the additional power. It gets rather hairy trying to slow down from 140+mph. It's time to come off these stock wheels also. I have good rubber, but have a desire to go wider on the rubber, thus wider on the body as well.

This year looking for safety mods. Perhaps in 2013 it will be built motor mods .

I got a promotion at work the other day that bump me up, but still not anywhere near what I use to make salary wise before I was laid off (which caused my mods to slow to a crawl and non-existent). I got my PTuning RS setup and have been having a blast with that, so it's about catching the REST of the car up to the new power now.

Oh yeah, I still have great vision for it. I want to get it painted as well. Probably go deep on Silver or something. Power will stop at 500whp with 7800rpms to play with (one day anyway).

I would have to agree!

Hope you get all your safety mods by the end of summer and looking forward to seeing more vid's of you all tearing it up on the track!

Yeah, I've no where near the money I used to make before I got laidoff, was getting parts almost every paycheck. Now, I have to wait for tax return time, and hope I don't owe no one a bunch of money that is going to take it away.

Saftey? pshh - I like my 500+whp and 150+mph with stock brakes Plus cant fit anything bigger under the 15" wheels lol. Once this springs plans are complete and its over 600whp, I was actually contemplating a chute for "emergency situations" haha

Dezod sells them with pig tails. if there is a high enough demand they will look at making PnP clips
