speak to @Mike@TD.co.uk He posted up in their sub forum on here that they are doing a cracking deal on a showroom displayed manifold they have left over as part of their tuning package. From just having it fitted myself I can highly recommend it. Combined it with my stock exhaust so it is quite and just a change in tone. However they do a super resonated exhaust which is very quite also if you want to go aftermarket.

Any idea what the weight of these are? Also did you ever fit them to your car? Just wondered how they looked on the 86

Chap Called Terry local to me has one that he offered to me. Although I am not in a position to make a decision on it yet until I have my manifold on. He may still have it available for sale though. Cant think what his user name is on here though @Leevsfortyone or @nikndel may know though

Will do. No email response so will try the old fashioned telephone approach...

This Sunday yer? If so hope to be there

Keep looking at Jag F types. In budget or not is debatable

Toyota are crazy expensive for brake discs and pads and fitting! I purchased pagid discs from eurocarparts and a set of rear pads. Then got an upgraded front set of pads from Partbox on here (preformance friction Z) £200 or just under and self fitted. Or a local garage would charge a couple of hours labour. So including labour plus new fluid if you wanted to save yourself the hassle I would Expect a drive in and out service from an independent to be about £400 :-)

Should be fine. Just get the alignment check as soon as you have the coilovers setup and go from there :-) Thinking konig dekagram as flow formed so light and strong and come in 17x8 Just awaiting a UK stockist to give me a firm quote as it's new out and no one's has stock yet. Need to decide asap as my 18s could do with new tyres.

If only lowering 20mm you wouldn't really need to adjust the rear camber. I am lowered 20mm and my rear naturally gained -1degree negative camber from lowering which matches my front setup and drives spot on. Good choice on wheels by the way :-)

I run rota pwr in 18x8.5 which are 10kg with 225/40 tyres. Can notice a difference between the stock wheels when I switch them back over and immediately drive them back to back. Not massively detrimental though. Makes the steering a bit heavier too. I prefer this feeling on track and hard driving but do keep thinking about downsizing to a set of light weight 17's.....

Hello mate been wondering how these wheels would look on a GT86 for ages so nice to see a set. Any idea of the width and offset of them? Would you consider postage at all as I am the wrong end of the country Many thanks Gavin

Toyota at Rayleigh? Anyhow let us know the outcome and good to have another Essex member aboard

Good work gentleman! Good to meet more new faces and thanks Lee for organising

Andrew do you run an oil cooler? FI generally runs a fair bit hotter then NA though. So always safe to keep an eye on it. I did a 35 degree day at snetterton in my NA car and I was been particularly careful to keeps the stints short as I do not yet have an oil temp gauge to keep an eye on.

Glad to hear you are happy with it. Will catch up with you at Castle coombe in September. Very interesting to hear how it goes on track

, I like that colour

PM sent

Anyone going? Good opportunity to have a look round some cars and watch people drive like melons on track I am going with a few friends as always and we usually spot some other 89's knocking about. I know know Nigel (Testdriveunlimited) said he was going Gavin

Yep that's the one. Must only do it in that colour too as the only ones I have seen have been in that combo.

Assume as tuning developments are based there a fair few people on here will have been Going to get the NA package fitted to my car in September. We are going on holiday and I have sweet talked my way into getting this done on route to the north from Essex I return I have booked a hotel in Warrington to break up the drive and have promised something to do and a nice meal out. Will then go TD the following day and continue our journey northwards after whilst enjoying my new parts! Fire away with recommendations

I like these a lot. There is one that has appeared in the car park at work. Good looking car as well enough to look nice but not OTT
