See you there!

Also, shouldn't this be in the "Event" section? Just wonder. Hehe.

Hi Moto! I've seen all the mods you have done to your ride already! Talk about true auto guru and sportsman!!
Hey, could you post pictures of the exhaust manifolds or headers? I've seen the frontal view of the engine on the subchassis but can't figure out where's the exhaust! LOL!

Anyways, on the suspension, how rigid is it compare to OEM? Is it adjustable enough to give you lower stance without compromosing too much on the ride?

I will like to get mine lowered with some sportier suspension but not too rough that would be tiresome as daily/street driving.

Also, all this add-ons, did you get them from 5Axis or several websites/suppliers?

Thanks!


Later!
Peace and God Bless!!

The exhaust system is sandwiched between the very low mounted and wide heads of the flat four, and the bottom cover of the FRS's under-carriage aerodynamic panels so I can't take a good pic at all... None of it is in view fore of the catalytic converter.

On teh RS*R Sports-i, the suspension has 7kg/f and 5kg/r which is about 15% stiffer than OEM, but the shocks used on the OEM are pretty stiff on compression to make it ideal for multi-role as track/street car so its sort of skittish and jarring on worst of LA's roads. The RS*R since it is fully adjustable, does cure this on the softer setting and makes it more complaint and more comfortable, despite the higher spring rate. ANd it can be dialed up to 60% to match just about where OEM are, or even higher to accomodate the eventually more sticky tires.

Each of the add on are direct from manufacturers who contacted me for various reasons. So far all of them are making the FRS nicer to live with, without any trade offs nor disturbing the core nature of the car that is so well-designed out of the showroom. :D

Would this suspension changes affect the warranty? Was it a local shop or an actual Toyorta Authorized Shop who installed all these?

I guess installing the tower brace and catch bottle is a DIY but suspension, should be done by a shop...did you aligned it afterwards?

Thanks for the information Moto.


Later!
Peace and God Bless!!

Suspension changes would only affect warranty on parts replaced, rest of the car should be fine. The oil Catch tank will affect engine warranty so you might opt out on that if that's a concern.
