    Supercharged GT86 for sale

    Thanks Jordan 👍, the car despite being a 12 plate is like new! I'd imagine it would put some newer cars to shame

    Clutch release bearing, covered under warranty?

    Cool. Thanks for your input on this Jamie. 👍 If the noise does occur again I'll go to the dealer and update this thread.
  5. Hi, can anyone share their views/knowledge on this subject? My release bearing seems to rattle a little on idle with clutch not pressed and goes when I press the clutch. Do Toyota class this as driveline or clutch system, as in wearable item? Admittedly the car is now supercharged but this in my eyes this component doesn't transfer the power anyway.. but might porvide the dealer with a bit of 'a wriggle out of it manouver'. I bought the car from the local dealer with 11.5k on the clock last year in june/july and it only has done ~2.5k since.. it's not too bad really but it annoys me. What do you think? Cheers for any input.
  6. But can you poo in a car? Just realised totally off topic. Delete as you see fit!

    VSC Sport mode

    Ive had the back end out to almost 90* in both directions with vsc sport on.. it was all set to throw me off the road untill I let off the throttle. However on the same drive it didnt spin up when puling off.. saying that, I never pull away very hard but I am supercharged too on stock tyres.

    Seat belt shoulder guides

    I think in this case It does.. it cant fall under fair wear and tear. Its a failure In my eyes.

    Seat belt shoulder guides

    I noticed the same thing after I picked up my car. I took it back to the dealer and they replaced the seat cover after ordering the parts with no fuss at all. Even if it was you that accidentally did it (I know it wasn't) its still a warranty repair IMO.

    Performance parts

    I wouldnt get it shot blasted if I were you. Unless your stripping it right down to a bare block anyway.. even then id be dubious.

    Superchargers and fuel consumption, any views?

    25mpg 'driving' the car?.. hmmm I used to get 26mpg round town/b roads when still n/a! With the s/c on a run to/from abbey motorsport I got 40mpg .. currently (without resetting the mpg on dash for a few months) .. *hides from the flames* im at 17.4 .. should have just kept the m3!
  14. Loose connector to the hazard light switch maybe? Don't know if its the same but i installed a HU on my mr2 in the past and after the indicators weren't working.. I had left the hazards unplugged. Now I'm not sure if you even have to remove that part of the dash to get the HU out on the 86 but if so, then this could possibly be the root cause, with very coincidental timing?

    Start Button Ignition bling

    Big screwdriver behind the side trim from the foot well, locate it (the pocket) all and push the pocket out, one side at a time. Removing the padded side trim will help, Can't remember for definite but think it just pulls out.. I'd check that though, but it was easy either way when I did it. no need to remove the stereo.

    Unexpected things you like about the GT86

    Wasnt an ISsue at all on my e93 m3.. but then there Were no b pillars and a good size rear side window.

    Warranty Experiences?

    When I turn off the igntion with the door open I get an orange key symbol and a beep.. also if you open very soon after the ignitiin is off it happens.. which is normal from what ive read. . Are you sure its not the same thing, Rather than the fob battery?
  18. Yea have to agree.. spending that much on stereo Is a thing of tge Past for me!

    Headlight adjustment for lowered cars

    I had a 2013 and now a 2015 crv and they seem the same to me... Apart from the cornering lights that have been changed to LED on the '15 where they were halogen on the '13 but as you would know they only turn on at lower speeds when turning the wheel. think its the height of the car as said before as both my crv s past and present blind people coming off my drive but my '14 civic didn't..(id imagine its the same hid in all 3).

    What does this screw do?

    Wood screw.. 86 deffo has no wood in it!
  21. Nearly. In reverse, the Cat back connects to the second cat.. that connects to the overpipe then the manifold

    52mm gauge pod

    Aluminium spacer perhaps made on a lathe? I could make you one if you supply all the dimensions to go by but time frame all depends how busy I am at work.. only 12 working days till Christmas for me (had to get that in there!)
  23. Umm, quick! recall all vans and lorries with no rear window.. They're not safe!!! In tennis style, you can not be serious!
  24. I had forgot all about the throttle jolt since the sc and mapping. Have to agree that before it was annoying, am I the best driver.. no.. so with that admission im entitled to say it should have more finesse! :D
