    Best "Quality of Life" Upgrades?

    I changed mine to an Anarchy Motive one which is the heaviest gear knob currently available I believe and so helps with the shift feel. It's also longer than the stock one so brings the shifter closer to the wheel.

    Stock GT86 front Brace Bars

    I can't help sorry but just wondered how come you're going back to standard Jay?
  3. Just thinking out loud but how possible would it be to have forum names on the back - be really handy for shows!

    I like it a lot James. I'm considering ordering a primo boot and having both set ups to alternate.

    Toyota Sports Day 2015

    It was an awesome day. I got 54.22 on the 4x4 2 penalties Quickest in the autotest of 32.01 Egg and spoon we got something like 6 minutes - the drone was flying over us and kept knocking the egg off! I got a high 17's in the knockout but murdered a cone (twice!) So that was the end of that! Really was so much fun though - the t-shirts were really nice and I loved the lunch boxes. I've got a real sports day at school tomorrow - don't think it's going to be quite as good somehow...
  7. Put me down for a purple in small with no rear print please Rob.

    Cheers Nige. I think it's the only one in the UK currently.

    Cheers. The rim is part of the wheel.

    When I changed my spoiler I took a few spoilerless pictures too. I really like it:-

    My spoiler arrived on Friday and I fitted it Friday evening as I was giving the car a clean ready for the Toyota Sports Day. I've only got a quick couple of pictures at the moment though:- It's a Legsport Clubsport Ducktail in carbon fibre. It's amazing how light it is compared to the stock spoiler.
  13. My favourite event was the autotest - and not just because I got the fastest time of the day! (Sorry Smudge ) I really enjoyed the hilux event too, drifting in the mud was fun!
  14. Have to agree with Keithos! Epic day.
  15. It's a huge amount of fun!
  16. Wet sports day - really is like a proper school one!

    Got a few bits to spruce the wheels up today:- Big thanks to Ben at Rare Rims - the nuts were my prize from karting on the other forum - ordered yesterday and received today!

    Debadge...or not?

    Good call. I don't think mine could be as low as it is if my wheels weren't pretty conservative in size and fitment.

    Jealous mate! Cheers for the confirmation though ☺

    So 345mm front, 350mm rear?
  22. Deacon

    Deacons '86

    If you can get an accurate measurement from the hub centre to the arch the stock is definitely 370mm so that would give an exact lowering figure? I definitely thought yours was lower than mine whenever I've seen it (when I was on springs not now obviously!)
  23. Deacon

    Stock is 370mm so 330mm would give a 40mm drop. 40mm is more what I would have expected having seen your car.
  24. Deacon

    Deacons '86

    I thought you were talking about rear control arms - my mistake. Having looked at your drop at Japfest I really would be shocked if that's all yours is dropped - my lowering springs dropped the car 30mm from stock and the tyre / arch gap was noticeably more than on your car?

    Rear camber is no problem - I've got the -2 degrees I wanted. Grounding on pillow Speedbumps is an issue. Having seen yours Lauren I'd be amazed if it's just a 20mm drop. I measured my standard ride height as 370mm middle of wheel to arch - be interested to see what yours is.
