Hi all, Selling my Endless MX72 Plus pads which have been on the shelf for a long time since I went BBK. I purchased these Endless brake pads back in 2019 and have only been opened to see the pads so they are brand new! Selling for £400 ONO for the set + shipping or welcome to collect from Maidenhead.

Dropping price to £350 and I will be at Japfest Sunday so can be picked up there!

Selling my old set of wheels which are the following specs: Team Dynamics Pro Race 3 in Anthracite 17 x 7 ET 38 215/45 Michelin Pilot Sport 4's - they are worn down quite low so will most likely need changing in a few hundred/thousand miles depending on how you drive! There are no curb rashes at all apart from a few chips when the wheel accidentally fell over in the garage. Pics below of the set including the damaged parts of wheel. Price is £500 collected from Windsor, Berkshire

Open to offers as I need to clear these quite quickly!

Price dropped to £450 collected

Bump!

Hi Everyone! I've been a member here (not been active at all...) and on GT86 owners club but after going to a few Japfests and Reading meets, I need to be more active! I started my build project on GT86 owners about 2 years ago which started with the standard mods for NA tune. the 86 was running the following: Tuning Developments EL manifold, JDL Ultra Quiet high flow cat, Ark Performance Grip, Apexi intake and Mishimoto intake hose with Abbey Motorsport remap. This got me to 187whp which I was happy with for a long time but I've always loved the idea of going boosted with this car. And now after 4 years of ownership it finally is! I think my car could possibly be the first in the UK to run the HKS turbo kit! The 86 is now producing 253whp which should be 300bhp at the fly and 205lbft at the wheels. My engine is completely standard and doesn't have any uprated injectors so Mark at Abbey Motorsport made sure the turbo came in as linear as possible for reliability. You do get a bit of turbo lag from below 3000rpm but when the turbo kicks in, the power delivery is incredible! It's so smooth and continues to pull strong all the way through to the redline. The noise of the turbo is brilliant, especially as you come of throttle and get a proper "choo choo" flutter. Mark, Scott and the team at Abbey did an incredible installation and mapping of the turbo which I can't thank them enough for! Only issue now is I need to clean up the other half of the engine bay... Here are my mods so far: HKS Turbo Kit with Zircotec coated manifold HKS Oil Cooler ARK Performance Grip JDL Ultra Quiet high flow cat Tein Flex A Coilovers Project MU brake pads (B Force-front & NS400-rear) Team Dynamics Pro Race 3 17x7 Valenti FT86 Speed Factory spec Tail Lights I've attached just a few pictures but first time uploading with this website so bear with me if it's not right Thanks for reading!

Only 7psi!

I like to be different! 😁 I will try to be a lot more active with the development of my car and the HKS turbo Correct! The 2nd cat I have is the JDL High Flow Ultra Quiet Cat which does a fantastic job keeping drone away. I got it from FT86 Speed factory

Right ! It's almost been 12 months of boost and I'm still loving every second of it. Bits of feedback of the HKS turbo so far: Noise is immense Power delivery is so smooth, boost comes in gradually and really takes off towards the top end of the rev range. The boost doesn't suddenly come in aggressively like a bigger or older turbo. Turbo spools up very qickly Mid corner boost can catch you off guard but the car doesn't kick out aggressively, still very easy to tell when you're about to pass that level of grip Fuel economy for every day driving (not eco!) is roughly 26 - 28mpg and when you keep out of boost I was averaging 30mpg. It still gets 40+mpg on motorway though! It's now absolutely rapid! Still very much a daily friendly car Since my last update, the only difference I've made has been a set of new wider wheels. The 17x7's with the turbo still held a lot of the handling characteristics of when the car was naturally aspirated. Like I mentioned above, the only real difference was that mid corner boost would break traction on the rear which would promote mid to corner exit oversteer. So I got myself a set of Rota Grid's because I can't afford a real set of TE37's yet haha. They are 17x9 and the grip levels have dramatically increased! The car from a standing start is much more planted now and has less tendency to break grip when shifting from 1st to 2nd. The mid corner boost doesn't break the traction as much as before, it can still slightly unsettle the rear if you're not paying attention. But overall the car feels sharper with the new wheels and looks much better that the skinny little bicycle wheels they come with from the factory! I will be taking the car on track for its first track day in August at Bedford at the How Fast event. It's not a full day of tracking which I actually think isn't a bad idea for me getting used to the car and turbo on track. The car will be going into Abbey to get a more track focused alignment now that I've finally got lower control arms. Absolutely excited to get back out on track since the last time was 2015! Here is the car in it's most current state Finally, mega pleased for Toyota winning the 24!

I really should do an update of how it's going with the HKS turbo! I'll get an update up this weekend whilst watching Toyota (hopefully) defend their crown at Le Mans 🤞

Thank you and great to meet you too Gavin! Really interesting to take a good look at other peoples cars and how different everyone's takes are on modifying theirs

Hi all, car is boosted so manifold is up for sale along with a set of H&R 20mm Silver spacers. Only 1 spacer was fitted to the car and unfortunately they didn't fit due to the wheel bolts sticking out past the spacer which meant my Team Dynamic wheels wouldn't fit flush. These are literally brand new spacers! The Tuning Developments equal length manifold has been Zircotec Primary Black ceramic coated and was on the car for just over a year and a half and covered less than 10,000 miles. The manifold is in great condition and only has 1 slight scratch at the bottom which is highlighted in the picture. Unfortunately I have lost the gasket and bolts during the turbo install that connects the manifold to the pipe that runs to the overpipe but I'm sure Tuning Developments will be able to help with replacements Pricing is as follows: Manifold: SOLD Spacers: SOLD Parts are based in Windsor and collection would be preferred but can arrange postage for an additional fee.

Spacers SOLD!

Manifold is now SOLD! Brand new spacers are still up for grabs

Manifold is now provisionally sold! Got it spot on

Here is a sound little clip from my Instagram

Absolutely loving it! The whole car is just on another level now. Plus I don't think I will ever get bored of all the noises the turbo makes!

Here's a few more!

It drives beautifully! I use mine as a daily driver and the only thing I think is different is that you need to give it just a really tiny bit more to move from a standstill but that could be a placebo. It's really easy to drive and no problem in stop start traffic. Hitting boost with the turbo is very very addictive. You can instantly feel the extra power as soon as the turbo starts spooling up. Like Lucas said, it will need pistons to push higher. I believe the HKS demo car is 450bhp at the fly!
