A big thank you to @spikyone for coming out of his way this evening to take me out in his very lovely GT86. You are a true gentleman! Not only that, but I really want your car - it would be my perfect spec. 👏

It's probably not clipped in properly. Mine wasn't at first. Once they're in place properly they don't move at all.

Its easily done, plus the new price you are asking is much better and if it wasnt for the tips I would have purchased it as its a super quality exhaust. GLWTS In all honesty I was disappointed with the Borla UEL in terms of the sound difference, I thought it would be more dramatic, however thats easily sorted. To hear the rumble that UEL puts out, I decided to go for an Invidia N1 catback exhaust, which I collected from a nice guy on the GT86 parts facebook page. Really helpful and the exhaust is in great condition. Only gripe with it is someone has taken what looks like wire wool or sand paper to the tips to give them a brushed look which didnt come on the N1. That should be an easy fix and for the price I paid, I cant complain. I have some polishing discs on the way to get the entire thing looking like new in no time and from what I read online should restore the polished finish on the 4" tips. While collecting the exhaust I noticed a tuning developments decat front pipe 30 mins away so I decide to collect that while I was there, gives me the choice to fit to my requirements if needed as that was a decent price too.

According to JL Audio, I managed to get one of the first JD amps in the UK which is nice: Untitled by James Baker, on Flickr I went for 100% the oxygen-free copper (OFC) wiring kit this time, heard good things and didn't cost much more: Untitled by James Baker, on Flickr Clocking up the miles in this now, finding every excuse to drive it at the moment, gone through 2 tanks of petrol in the last few weeks, more than I think I've use in the past 4 months.

AD08R's have very stiff sidewalls that are a lot stiffer than even a PS4 XL. I think if you went to a normal XL tyre you'd notice a difference.

Congratulations are in order! Mother and baby are doing well!!

Thanks both for the replies. I had read online the above and just waited to confirm thats correct. Looking forward to GT86 ownership having owned, enjoyed and modified many MR2 mk3 over the past few years

The TRD is a stock car from the factory that has the TRD parts added at the port of entry (Portbury Docks), so they are standard ride height and effectively no different in terms of a standard car. There were supposed to be a run of 250 cars for the UK, but the very high purchase price of £32K at the time meant they did not sell well. We think there were around 166 or so sold in the UK. As to how many of each colour, I do not know the answer to that, though they were sold in black, red and white. White was most popular, then black, then red.

Seem to remember something about 250 of each colour but that may be wrong. Ride height is no different from the factory but obviously it could've been modified by the previous owner.

Whilst on an absolutely essential journey recently I made an absolutely essential stop to take some absolutely essential photos. (not really) 🙄😇

All dressed up and no place to go! Cleaned, clayed and now Covid! Move over Covid - let me out!

One from the Adrian Flux meet the other week!

The rarest of the rare!
