    Why gt86

    @GT86FTW - Have you asked a couple of different garages if you can test drive a car? If you have a full UK drivers license (assuming you are from the UK), you should be able to get a test drive at Toyota . Also have you been to a garage with an older family member? As that can usually help.

    Your Fuel Economy?

    Last year I averaged 32.2mpg and did around 250miles per tank (most of the time I fill up before the light comes on). I use Fuelly to work it all out.

    Welcome Wabbit, you've probably seen me then. The next meet is this saturday, just down the road from yourself.

    Is...

    Engine mounts are definitely worth considering, however I'd only get the STi ones to avoid any extra NVH. (See video below). Also if you want proper brake cooling these are the ducts you want: https://www.verus-engineering.com/product-page/full-brake-cooling-kit-ft86, I'd avoid the APR ones as they don't cool the brake disc properly.

    I would buy you a cake, however there is also a 50% chance you won't turn up.

    Rims for days - sizes, offsets and widths

    @Blameshift you'll want these ones: http://jr-wheels.com/towar.2775.japan.racing.jr3.18x8.et35.5x100120.matt.black.html this is the best size for fitment without being overly aggressive.
  16. There's not enough blue cars going, I guess i'll need to come and make up the numbers.
  17. If I was in your situation I'd personally leave it now, however I'd also be on the lookout on the forum/ebay for a used set of wheels. Then if need I'd buy a brand new set of Nokian WR A3 tyres. If you wanted some cheap new wheels instead get these: Tyres: https://www.oponeo.co.uk/tyre-details/nokian-wr-a3-225-45-r17-94-h-xl#172966344
  18. Yep, not sure if they've been released yet fully.
  19. @Lucas@PartBox are you able to get the new Toms (or Buddyclubs) when they are available?

    Advice on turbo parts

    Velox AOS won't work on RHD without alot of modification. The one I'd get would be the Radium dual system. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

    Big revs

    Element Tuning, ran a boosted FA20 upto 9K for a race season, I think they rebuilt the engine a couple of times along the way. For an N/A build they believe the limit is 7800rpm. I assume the quote Church has copied is from one of their posts. There is loads more info here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=63723&highlight=element+tuning Short video here:

    Brake upgrades - discs/pads?

    Simply because I fitted the StreetMasters a couple of months before hand, I therefore thought it best to try the BBK out first before making any decisions about the rears. As it turned out the balance is spot on, so I left it as is.

    Brake upgrades - discs/pads?

    I'm on Cosworth street masters for the rears. They feel like a very similar compound to the DS2500 on the front so they work really well, probably abit more street biased. I'd suggest you look for a similar compound to the DS2500. The main thing I was concerned about was brake bias, the AP kit is one of the closest to keeping the stock balance, so you don't want an overly aggressive rear pad.
