All the pictures of the crash bar I've seen have it. It must be something Subaru do at the factory.

A full rebuild is around the £4K mark, if you only need the top half of an engine it might be cheaper. Here's a couple of places / people that might be able to help you source an engine. They can be found from £2000 to £4000. @Samwise has one for sale - see attached image.

Event Title: Midlands Lunch Meet - Sat 11th December (Hoof Beats) Event Author: will300 Event Date: 11.12.2021 Hello Everyone As we are approaching that festive time of year, we shall be hosting our December / Xmas Midlands lunch meet at the start of December. We shall be meeting at the Hoof Beats restaurant just of the A5 near Burntwood / Brownhills on Saturday 11th December at 11:30. Please can you confirm your attendance asap, so we can book a table for enough people. The car park is a good size, however we expect it to get rather busy. Because of this and the fact I we'd all like to park closer together, we should park around the back of the restaurant where there is a large parking area. Please can we all aim to get there for 11:30, no earlier please. This will give us time for everyone to arrive before we sit down for lunch at 12. Here's the menu: https://www.hoofbeatsbnk.co.uk/main-menu/ Thanks for looking.

@Aqz257 & @SamsGT86-OE table has been booked but they need to know our order: https://www.hoofbeatsbnk.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/17825-COMFY-PUB-HOOFBEATS-CHRISTMAS-APPROVED.pdf - Can you chose from here and let me know.

For colours look here: https://www.toyota.com/gr86/ My name will be going down for one, possibly two, one for me & one for my brother. Although I'm not sure if its worth it for both of us to get one. I might have to get a Supra instead 🤔

Yes they provide a benefit, most noticeably with oil temps. However I wasn't concerned with this, I had them installed to reduce the engine bay temps around the coilpack area. What I should have done was have my exhaust manifold thermally shielded (google thermo met). I probably wouldn't bother if I was to do it again.

You're unlikely to sell this here, as this is a UK forum. Please list the item here instead: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=33 Because of this I'm going to lock this thread, if anyone is interested you can PM the OP.

This will probably be your best bet, without going for crazy pads or a BBK: https://www.torqen.uk/toyota/toyota-gt86/brakes/pack-deals/20228-toyota-gt86-stoptech-discs-sport-performance-pads-kit-slotted.html As for a caliper refurb, I'd go to either: https://www.biggred.co.uk/ or https://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/

You wont get any increase in NVH with the STi or TRD engine mounts, as these are similar to the OEM design, just using a firmer rubber. I'd avoid the Perrin and Cusco ones as they are predominately made from metal and are known to increase the NVH.
-
Quick math, says there is about £5K to £6K worth of mods there and the car stock is atleast worth £10K. So around £16K in total, ofcourse that on the assumption that you've kept all the stock parts and that you'd be removing and refitting everything. There are a couple of boosted cars for sale at the moment for around £13.5K, one of which is HKS supercharged and a couple of TD turbo cars.

@MangoNo5 remind me what mods do you have?

You ideally don't want it going above 125°c, without an oil cooler. It'd take some going to get it that hot on the street mind. Just make sure you run a decent oil and you should be fine. For referrence I'll happy run laps on the track with my oil at 125°c so long as it's stable at that temperature. However I'm also running Millers Nanodrive CFS oil, which is rated for 125°c with temperature spikes upto 150°c.

You could always run a fuel additive such as VP Racing Octanium and have two maps one for with it and one without. https://vpracingfuels.com/product/octanium-unleaded/?c=207&

Event Title: Midlands Lunch Meet - Sat 19th June (Hoof Beats) Event Author: will300 Event Date: 19.06.2021 Hello Everyone As lockdown restrictions are now easing it's time to host another Midlands lunch meet. For this we'll be meeting at the Hoof Beats restaurant just of the A5 near Burntwood / Brownhills on Saturday 19th June at 11:30. I've provisionally booked an outside table for 6, we can book another table if we get more interest. The car park is a good size, however we expect it to get rather busy.
