Stefano Vacirca 2013 Scion FRS TBLIVE 1

In 2012, Stefano Vacirca owned a Hyundai Genesis Coupe. Unfortunately, Vacirca was involved a very bad car accident and the Gen Coupe was written off. The day after the accident, he reserved a 2013 Scion FR-S before it was released to the public. Prior to owning the FR-S, Vacirca bought wheels, coilovers, N/A bolt-ons. In January, he received a call from the Scion dealership and he was informed that his brand new 2013 Scion FR-S was ready for pick-up. As excited as Vacirca was, he had to hold off a few winter months before driving and modifying the FR-S and had arranged storage with the Toyota dealership until the snow had melted.

"I could remember the day I got the car. I was so excited," Vacirca mentions. "I drove the car home and immediately started installed parts at 7:00PM on a Thursday. I installed the coilovers, strut bars, wheels, and exhaust. After getting familiar with the power, I wanted to be different."

Vacirca purchased a turbo kit along with the Rocket Bunny v1 body kit. What he envisioned in his head was a Rocket Bunny v.1 with VS-XX Work wheels, stanced and turbocharged. Unfortunately, the wheels he had in mind were too expensive for his budget at the time. So he decided to try something someone has never done - Rocket Bunny without the fenders. Vacirca saved a bit more money and was able to get Varstoen ES6 Black Gloss / Gold riveted wheels and started the Rocket Bunny fenders. All the work performed by Vacirca with the help of Paul @ Wideworks for repairs.

Vacirca absolutely adores the FR-S! No matter how much debt it has put him in, first and foremost, tuning is his passion! It's what he wants to pursue in his life.
