  1. Cool! I will try that tomorrow. IWell the car certainly feels more aggressive on pull off! faster even.
  2. Well if Evo say they are good then my review must be right then! happy days!
  3. Yes mate as I will hardly use the 86! Will only be using the Lexus mainly during winter. But if there is no snow or ice I will take the 86 out for a tick over!By the way I forgot to mention with a speedo swim race timer I clocked my 0-60 at 6.9.(Only a partial tire Curp) hardly nothing really. Conditions where dry and on a flat! Now there are many variables with what I did but I did the run 4 times with pretty identical times. It took a couple of runs to get it just right at first as trying to look at your speedo and press a button when it hits 60 is nails! I choose 60 not 62mph as 60 was easier to spot on the timer. Can my times be correct? Just putting on sportier tires I have dropped pretty much 0.5 to 0.7 (hundredths) of a second of the manufacturers stated time. Am I wrong or are the Primacy HP's that lacking in initial grip! ? Bewildered here guys!
  4. Hey faith you got a good photo of me! jeez multi-tasking at its best! driving and taking a good pic! Im impressed.
  5. Sweet meet! Cheers everyone that was there!
  6. Keethos no dramas with me being late mate! emailed Grippy tires and they have gone right for timings to fit my dunlops till 4.30 pm so I am all good now!
  7. ok mate sounds awesome.. I certainly will make my way down to the grass hopper! I will try get there before lunch! but if the tire guy does come early all the better. Ive had these tires on back order for ages now so I need to snap them up asap! Ok Keethos see you on sat! Well if there is no one there at least I would have a fun drive myself.
  8. Hi guys! I will be running a bit late on sat as my new tires should be getting fitted at 8am on sat morning. Im guessing I will be well on my way by 9.30 so I should be there after 11.30ish. Will anyone still be around at that time? worth me still making my way?
  9. Hey guys I may be slightly late on Sat! It is the same day Grippy Tires will be around to fit my new rubber. They should be at mine at 8am so I guess I will be well on my way by 9.30ish. Will everyone still be around by say after 11.30ish?

    Litchfield Spec S - web page now live

    After reading up on all the tuning packages i.e turbo from Fensport or a supercharger from Litchfield I think I will stay N/A! That is why I bought the 86 after all because of the revvy natural aspirated motor! Fun! Right!If I wanted forced induction I would of bought the closest rival (in terms of a real drivers car) the Renault Megane rs 265! Though a front wheeled drive car it still offers a real drivers feel! More power, torque and for retailing less dosh!But I bought the 86 because it gives you real world performance! You can spank it to the red within the legal limits whilst having a mega grin!I am a normal bloke not a Button or Hamilton and I wouldn't be chasing the best hot laps on the Track. (Just be on there for fun).I am not saying I would never consider either package in the future but for now I am loving my 86 the way it is!Just a few bolt on's will do! Tires, induction and maybe a exhaust will treat me right I say! I am certainly considering Litchfields 25BHP package. Still keeping it N/A too! Last point our GT 86's are Top Gear's car of the year 2012 for a reason!On the other hand different strokes for other folks lol
  11. Keethos, mate I will not be around on the 26th away in the sun. But I will join on the next meet!

    BREAK SQUEAK

    BREAK SQUEAK

    Last night whilst driving around London visiting my folks I started to hear my breaks squeak. I was driving with my windows down through normal West London roads, it seems with the parked cars and tight buildings the sounds from my car was amplified. The squeak comes in at the initial point of breaking and the harder I press the break pedal the squeak disappears. It is a faint sound but a squeak none the less. My 86 has only got 8.5k on the clock and no break pads go in that space of time and I only give it the beans rarely on my Favourite local B roads! "Which is not a lot might I add, still learning on how to drive fast.. I so need help, heel and toe, someone needs to show me please" lol. Also my break bite through the pedal is still very strong and high up which should indicate I have ample break pads left.What could this be?Anyone else noticed the their car do the same?Technical wizards Help?!Thanks guys.

    BREAK SQUEAK

    Mate awesome link! It seems the drop in filters do as much good as a full induction kit! But the Blitz product looks the best!
