Toyota PCP - can I pay off with credit card?
long-gone replied to Simonnnn's topic in GT86/BRZ General Chat
I don't see why not. The finance company just want money - they don't care from whence it came. If you're uncertain, a quick phone call should answer your question. Nb. No need to go into details - just ask if it's okay to pay by credit card - mentioning anything else may muddy the waters. -
Nice one. Are you going to leave it as-is, or wrap or paint it?

Chatteris is in the Midlands? Yep, Adrian is very good. I went out with him to do mine. It's very interesting seeing the live data and him fiddle with the graphs until it's just right.

Unexpected things you Disike about the GT86
long-gone replied to remal's topic in GT86/BRZ General Chat
Don't they use a sensor to determine whether the seat's occupied? Pretty sure an empty seat won't heat. Never tried it though... -
Not typically a fan of white cars, but this wears it well. Good work.

Thanks for comprehensive reply. I'm leaning towards the Harrop personally but can appreciate why you and others prefer the Cosworth. If I were a track enthusiast I'd probably go the same way, but my driving is primarily lanes and B roads so absolute power isn't a priority. I doubt I'd get to appreciate the Cosworth on my 10 miles each way 'commute', where the Harrop-Eaton will give me that bit more grunt out of the bends and up the inclines. I'm a technical incompetent so self-fit is not an option. I have the ECUtek licence since remap a couple of years ago so that'll save a few bob. Mark at Abbey has provided a quote which I'm considering, pending a test drive in their demonstrator. Hoping for a decent end of year bonus in April - until then it's a pipe dream anyway.

Hope I'm not being cheeky or too nosy... I note you've installed and are enjoying the Cosworth stage 2 SC - did you consider any others? What made you choose Cosworth over Sprintex, Harrop, etc?

Sounds like that may be the case. My seat takes a few minutes to get warm and maybe five minutes to full temp. I keep it on most of the time - helps my dodgy lower back. -
New 2016 Valenti Sequence rear lights

... for those with good eyesight or contact lenses. For we spectacle wearers, not so much. TBH though, glare of/from the binnacle has never been an issue for me, though I'm quite tall sat down so maybe that's the difference?

T&M Auto Trim did the 'original' alcantara so they have the pattern. I'd expect it's worth asking them?

I reckon you'll be giving this a run for its money:

The old TVR AJP 4.5 litre V8 flat plane crank still sounds epic to me. Cerb 450

ACE Header for RHD cars in @ Abbey Motorsport
long-gone replied to Mark@Abbey M/S's topic in Abbey Motorsports
Noob question alert: Is this compatible with any existing cat-back system, 2.5" & 3"? -
Another good read. Thanks for taking the time to share.
-
Yep, sorry. Guessed that and edited my post so we overlapped. Apologies.
-
Nearly 20% is quite a large 'small amount', or is the price in OP not including ECUTEK etc?

-
Nice. Fitted photos and report on how they perform ASAP please.

Understood, thanks. Will contact them direct.

Have I missed the answer to this?

That's interesting. Any photos of it fitted, does it look good and OE like Pitman's (the only other turbo I've seen in real life)?
