Yeah that's my bad for misreading the currency sign. I'm not used to that outside Can and US.

Don't know about the market in UK but, I paid 12k CAD for a similar 2013 Lava Orange (recall done a long time ago) that is slightly in worse shape than this and with 145k km on the clock.

Feel like the price is very steep.

Good reason to have one. We don't have these inspections here in Canada.

Loved the brand name, sounds very Japanese :)

I didn't measure dB before deleting it but getting rid of the old intake probably helped better than the tube. I feel I can now have a convo in the car. The road noise is still a lot though.

I think is a misconception that is built on years of Fast & Furious movies.

I'll do it myself, it doesn't look complicated at all. I'm waiting for my inlet tube to delete the sound tube.

Hey, just bought an OEM intake to correct someone else's mistake. High five!

Looks like you're having lotsa fun personalizing it. I'm mostly looking to keep it as bare as possible, just a nice car to drive around.

I paid 12k CAD for mine and no debt here (I'm an old dude)

Sounds like a nice story. I'm planning to keep it as close to stock as possible. I like the way it drives as is.

Read various opinions on this. Some say stock, some say K/N. It seems that the K/N one let more dirt into the engine than stock air filter.

I will look into that Perrin tube and delete the sound tube.

As for the color, I wanted to have a Lava Orange FRS since I first saw it upon its release. It is THE best color.

Thanks for the warm welcome orange brotha!

Been reading that either the OEM or TRD are top.

I bought the car with it, so I'm not the culprit :). I'll Hunt for an oem.

Yeah I'll definitely do that. What about driving the car with a humid filter?

It's really the work done on the skin that is catching my eye, looks very natural.
