    Hi everyone

    Personally I'd speak with Charles Clark Toyota (i.e. the first one) tell them you'll take the car for £22k (which you said was your budget), so long as your are happy with the condition of the car on viewing. Pay them a £500 deposit then get a family member or friend to drive you down there at the weekend.

    Accident and insurance help!

    Ah crap dude, at least it's not too bad. The bumper looks salvageable with a bit of body work. Normally I'd recommend: Mick at Spray Station, but last time we spoke he was on about retiring and that was at least 12months ago so I'm not sure if he's still around. He's the guy who resprayed my boot lid. If he's not around try a guy called Greg Howell, he's fairly well known in the VAG scene: http://greghowell.co.uk/. He's done some nice cars recently: https://www.instagram.com/greghowell_/

    Hi everyone

    Welcome Nemesis, With your requirements, I'd seriously look at one like this: Toyota GT86 2017 Grey, ok it's £750 over budget but with abit of haggling you should be able to get it down to £22k. Due to all the refinements of the face lift they are definitely the ones to buy if you can afford one. Will
  9. Yes, there is still space. If anyone else is interested please do put you name down. I can easily increase the table size.

    Will300's Subaru BRZ Build

    I did seal them with GTechniq Wheel Armour before they were fitted, makes them alittle bit easy to clean. I told Mike the issue I was having with them and he did say it sounded like I've boiled the fluid. The initial couple of days after the first bedford I did notice the groves in the rotor was completely full of dust which didn't help much either. Not sure on fluid, its just the stuff TD use.
  12. Table is booked till 3:30 so maybe 4ish.
  13. Welcome Rich, we're doing a meet in September not to far from you, everyone is welcome: I mean there's even a guy in a BMW coming...

    Will300's Subaru BRZ Build

    Minor Update: As I've got a spare couple of hours I've finally got round to fixing the photobucket images on the initial post and the BBK post. I'm also going to do a quick update to let everyone know what's going on, nothing major at the moment. On the 21st of May (god it doesn't seem that long ago) I attended the Show n Shine meet hosted by @Neal, I ended up winning the best present car trophy after spending the previous day completely cleaning the car inside and out, I also gave the car a couple of last minute touch ups at the show, I got a total score of 14.5 out of 15 (I think), due to engine bay letting me down. Thanks again to Neal for organising the event. Here's a picture of the trophy and a clean engine bay, which I tided up the following day. The following couple of months I attended various shows and meets including both Japfests. I've also done 3 track days since the Oulton Park day back in February. One at Blyton Park with the club hosted by Lotus on Track, what a brilliant day that was. The car was faultless and the brake's were amazing, I definitely surprised a couple of the lotus guys with just how fast the car was. And in the past month I've done two track days (well 1 and a half) both at Bedford Autodrome, the first one was alot better than the 2nd, which I'll get on to shortly. Here's a couple of photo's from the recent Partbox meet: This is quite possibly my favourite photo this year of the car. On the 19th of August I took the car to Tuning Developments for @Mike@TD.co.uk (& Nick) to service the car (4th year) and check a couple off issue's I had. For those that are interested here is the list of issue's: 1. Exhaust manifold knocking/rubbing the undertray - Unfortunately this is the only niggle with the ACE CS400 manifold. Nick soon fixed this by hammering the undertray out. I'm looking at getting some uprated engine mounts as I'm not entirely convinced the issue has fully gone. 2. Exhaust system blowing - It turns out one of the joins on my AVO exhaust was leaking, so Nick took the exhaust off and resealed it. 3. Brake pedal feeling a little spongy - Brake system was fully bleed, issue now gone. 4. Tweaks to the throttle map - When I had the car remapped by Tuning Developments originally they mapped the car with two different throttle maps. One standard map and one more aggressive map. However I always felt the standard map was not responsive enough for my liking and the aggressive map was too sharp for daily driving (aggressive is perfect on track), so I ended up just using the aggressive throttle map. I informed Mike of this and he tweaked the standard map more to my liking, its now perfect for day to day driving. All of the above issue were sorted promptly. Once everything had been completed Mike told me that Nick had found an issue with the car which they couldn't fix (didn't have the part in stock). One of my rear ARB drop links had broken, it's that moment you then think **** how long has that been like that, I mean I was on track at Bedford two weeks before. Anyway I wasn't happy but nothing could be done about it. I then swiftly emailed Fensport who I purchased the droplinks from and they got a new set sent out next day, Thanks Fensport. Let this be a warning to anyone running aftermarket droplinks, check them regularly. It was now time for round 2 at Bedford (Thanks @Deacon, I'm now broke again ). The day started off well, I meet most of the guys there, did the noise test which I passed and thought that was that. However it turns out that Nick's fix on my exhaust made the drive by noise level alot louder. Unfortunately this meant I got black flagged in the first session, damn Bedford and it's low drive by limit. I was however given a 2nd chance, so on my 2nd session I decided to short shift, no complaints this time. 3rd session, I had @Deacon in the car as he was interested in the stopping power of my AP Racing BBK. I pushed alittle bit to hard and got black flagged again, this was me done for the day. For reference Bedfords drive by limit is 87.5db apparently I was hitting 92db. I'm going to look at getting something sorted over the next couple of months to hopefully lower the drive by noise level. I'll also be looking at getting my oil cooler fitted and a oil temp / oil pressure gauge fitted. As I now had a free afternoon I decided to help out a fellow club member I'd been speaking with (@alucado). He's interested in my BBK as he's looking to purchasing the same setup. Anyway he was in talks with @Lucas@PartBox about a set of Rays wheel's he was selling, but he didn't want to commit to buying them without knowing if they'd clear a BBK setup. He spoke to myself and Lucas and we arranged to try the wheels out on my car. The wheel fitment is: 17x7 +42. So I gave Lucas a call and told him I was now free for the afternoon, a couple of hours later I was at Partbox. I meet with Lucas and we had a chat about various things, mostly about me spending money. Anyway here is a couple of shots of the Rays wheels on my car, which as you can see clear the BBK without issue: That's it for now, thanks for looking.

    RAYS 57Xtreme 17x7 - SOLD

    @alucardo Based on @Rich196's wheel size and the Rays size, they are virtually identically in position so fitment shouldn't be an issue. See below Or you could ask me nice and @Lucas@PartBox really nicely if he'd try one on my car.
  20. Thank god, these are massive so I know they'll be no good for me

    2016+ Aero Wheels

    I think you miss understood, the stock aero wheels (the ones you want) aren't forged they are a cast replica, they won't be £800 a wheel. The SF2 is a TRD forged wheel available from Japan which is more likely £800 each.
