    Convertible Anyone ?

    I've been training up some guys from Toyota this week and they've confirmed that there will be a convertible as well as a hybrid version too! Looking forward to seeing/checking them out!
  2. :32 (11):I've just finished training up some guys from Toyota (Derby plant) and one of the guys told me that there was one guy at work who's just wrote his GT86 off because he came from a company hybrid to the GT86, no other RWD experience and decided to turn all the assists off.....span into a lamp post or something and wrote it off :32 (31):

    Fifth Gear has GT86 vs Megane 265

    Love how they didn't even bother mentioning that Vicky kept on knocking the cones over.....that's what you get for cheating :32 (27):
  4. And this was me thinking that this was cos they had supercharged or turbo charged it and didn't want someone to bin so easily :32 (35):
  5. I don't know if I'd sell it to pay off my current car or keep it and strip it bare and do it up big time for some GT86R action!

    Fifth Gear has GT86 vs Megane 265

    Not watched this yet but Jason Plato loved it last year in the GT86 and Tiff loved the BRZ doing a run through the Isle of Man I think it was.......though they did say it needed a lil more umph!

    Leak

    That's what I read it as too Rob, dark outside rather than describing the patch....hence my question.....give it the old sniff test Quball :32 (18):

    Leak

    There's a known possible leak at the back of the engine somewhere, can't remember where exactly but there's a triangular plate of some sort, could be that....or the mechanics hasn't tightened something after the service, heard someone else experiencing something similar with their Toyota dealership. Do you know what it is? Oil? Water? Coolant?
  10. Ummmmmmmmm.....it is the Celica right?

    Future of the Superchargers...

    I thought electric superchargers were just a scam on ebay? Can you really have an electric supercharger?:32 (7):uuuuh.....there's 50 odd pages......can someone summarize for us lazy people pweeeeease? :32 (16):

    GT86 in rallying

    Cool, does resemble the Celica a fair bit there!

    What are you doing to your 86/BRZ?

    Wise words Ian, that's my plan any ways:Cobra Exhaust with black outverted exhaust tips & CAT delete - sometime in OctoberSome Winter Tyres - sometime in November18" Rota Grid Drifts - next SpringThen at some point during or after those mods......when I can be arsed really:Gloss black wrapped roof, front lip and alloysStubby aerial or possibly even go shark finBRZ side fendersThat should do me for the year, already got a quote for all these insurance wise from Sky which is looking pretty good, though I might try and squeeze in an ECU Remap at some point after all that and I do want to do something to the suspension like BC coil-overs and nicer brakes (both cosmetically and performance wise for the odd track and sprint event) but we're talking a fair amount of money so won't be doing them any time soon.I needs to earn me some more monez :32 (39):
  14. No idea mate......does look good though

    Tires!

    Afraid not fella and to be honest with you mate, my knowledge is pretty limited to what I've just mentioned, before the Clio I was driving a Ford KA with cheapo tyres :32 (38):Lauren on the other hand definitely knows her stuff as she used to race and stuff, and some of the other lads on here will probably know a lot more than me. But since the car is so new, not many people will know what the car will be like outside of the HP's as they've not needed to change tyres, but those who have, have pretty much stuck with the main ones mentioned above. As some cars will handle great with one type of tyre yet with the same tyre on a different car could handle terribly.....the developers did try and design the 86 to work with any type of tyres so I don't think you can go too far wrong if a particular tyre is getting good reviews from a variety of owners.
  17. I really do appreciate the offer Lauren, but Huddersfield to Macclesfield is only an hour away (better than 2 from Warwick) and I'm sure that Jay and Rob would need your hospitality more than me as they're having to travel a lot further.But I'm keen for an afternoon cruise down some passes, followed by some awesome curry in the evening of the Saturday, then the installs and a mini meet at Rich's place on the Sunday....sound like a plan?

    Tires!

    I used to have Continental Contact Sport 3's on my Clio 200 and they were great, proper grippy both dry and wet (and even handled snow reasonably well when there was plenty of tread, where as the HP's were terrible last winter even on new treads), but I can't say how well the new Contact Sport 5's are on the GT but we know 1 guy who raves about them....even though he doesn't actually do that much driving in his car :32 (14):Personlly I'll be looking at either Eagle F1's or the Contact Sport 5's when I get my new alloys next year. A cap of £100 is a lil low isn't it for some decent performance tyres? I know the HP's are quite pricey but the F1's and the Contact Sport 5's are about £120-£130 I believe.

    GTA V

    Sorry for the late responses....you all know what I've been up to :32 (17): Watched that vid on facebook Arekkz.....awesome vid.I've been paying it that long and I've yet to see a Futo, will need to keep an eye out....then again, I'm always keeping an eye out for the more exotic cars.....spent a good hour or two last night just collecting cars with Franklin, speeding over to the customs shop that I've brought in Sandy Shores to completely pimp out for free, then ragging it back to my big garage to store it.Proper gutted though, with Michael, I actually spent about $400,000 I think on buying a car (the Mclaren/Lambo looking car), pimped it up, then completely lost it due to missions etc, only to find out that it doesn't reappear in your own garages but gets impounded but since there is only 2 slots there, if you get more cars and customise them, they become yours and thus when they get left out and about some where and get impounded, they replace the ones that are already impounded and then the ones that get replaced are lost forever.....what a waste of sooooo much money :32 (39):To be fair....I've still got a stack of games that I've got and haven't played or even finished yet and an even bigger list of games that I still want to get and play but not had the chance......some games take more priority than others :32 (28):
  20. Keen Lauren!! I won't be needing a place to stay as I have a mate over in Huddersfield who will be putting up with me wondering in and out of his place for the weekend :32 (17):I'll put up a mini meet thread for Saturday and Sunday once I've got some confirmation from Jay and Rich!

    GTA V

    I've been blitzing this game none stop....it's awesome!I'm on Xbox 360 and my GT is Ksongro (if you want, you can add me on PSN too which is Keethos.....sadly Keethos is taken on XBLA :32 (39):)I made a massive profit from one company but after loading a save, the stock pretty much reset itself so I lost all profit with this one company and it refused to change any more :32 (39): ah well....I was joking about the Stock Market vid Arekkz, you don't actually have to, though I did read up on some interesting facts about the stock market and how you or the community can affect the stock market e.g. destroying lots of cars from one company will reduce their stock value and rise others.

    JDM Custom Instrument Surrounds

    Interesting....don't know whether it would suit though....unless you were able to change the AC fake plastic nuts for real metal nuts in the same polished look.

    GTA V

    Awesome stuff Arekkz, maybe you could do me a guide on the stock exchange malarkey....I have no idea what I'm doin there :32 (17):Finally got my copy through today, didn't actually arrive till 2:45 and I didn't actually get it till 3:30 and that's because the useless delivery service that Asda Direct uses is terrible (My Yodel), the delivery guy turned up, walked straight to the wrong house, no answer so decided to leave it in their porch. Checked the tracking status at which point it said that it had been delivered and "left safe" which obviously meant that they couldn't deliver it so they've left it someone they think is safe.....in someone else's front porch where anyone could walk in and pick up....not impressed as I was a sucker for the collectors addition so a nice big box sat in someone's porch can be very tempting to local scum.....so I literally wondered over, straight into their porch and picked the parcel up and left again. I'm thinking what's to stop me from contacting Asda to say that I haven't received the item as not only did they not get a signature, they tried to deliver it to the wrong bloody address.Anyhoo....I've been playing it pretty much none stop since :32 (37):
