Is there a way to 'remap' the pre facelift Gt86 with the track mode traction control setting which comes with the facelift? Seen Abbey have done some custom work on this but is there a straightforward 'flash'? *awaits the comments of being able to drive properly with the tc off....

Thanks for the info. I find the vsc sport overly cautious so will need to test drive a 17 to see how it differs (might get one as courtesy car for the recall!) from what I've read it seems to be a good sweet spot Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

How are you getting an Internet connection to the head unit for music / waze etc? Do you have to create a WiFi hotspot from your phone every time you get in the car? Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

Hi For sale custom backbox made by Powerflow for the Gt86/Brz (axle-back) Bought from another forum member Fantastic noise from this, see youtube video, but a little too loud for me with my current setup so i'm going for a TD Super Res cat back to replace it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1t2HhXt-Lf4 In good condition other than a bit of staining - no cracks etc. Wrong username in the photo, thats my 'other' gt86 forum username Looking for £180 collected from Peterborough Cheers Will

Looking for some advice please My 86 has developed a 6th gear synchro issue. Recently its been jamming getting out of 6th gear while on the move. It goes in and out fine when stationary. Took it to garage this morning - and I've been sent to a gearbox place as they've said it's the synchro gone. (reputable garage). The previous owner had 2nd gear synchro changed under warranty 2 years ago due to notchyness, and apparently the dealer whilst doing this dropped 6th gear on the workshop floor and therefore changed this at the same time.... Now I'm up for £1100+ bill to get this sorted without any 'event' of failure. I'm advised it's probably the dealer repairing 6th on the cheap (as I imagine they didn't get reimbursed for this one). I could get a second hand box for about 600/700 from ebay, or I could order the parts (about £400) for 6th gear from Toyota and have this chap fix the existing box. Labour for replacing box £480 Labour for fixing existing box £780 (+ gbox oil) My current mileage is 50k As you can see the prices are going to end up similar for either option. Risk of replacing box - unknown history of it / any issues Risk of repairing mine - open the box to find potential more issues Which way would you recommend I go about this shitty situation please?

For anyone thats interested thought i'd update this, Went to turbomonkeys in Boston, Lincs (on will300's recommendation). They couldn't replicate the issue (always the way when you show someone isnt it!) - so i agreed they change the oil which came out a grey colour and replaced a gasket which was likely leaking. Box felt better after this running around back roads.. But then a week or so later after sitting on the motorway for about 30mins in 6th on the way to see Mike @ TD for a super-res install, coming off the slip road and crunch, same thing! Felt like it half came out of gear, stuck somewhere between neutral and 5th/6th, grinding/gear spinning noise to match. Struggled to get into neutral as was coasting up to the stop line. Once into neutral, it felt like there was no springs on the box so the lever would just sit wherever i left it! Fished around for 1st gear and pulled up to let Mike @ TD know i wasn't going to make it. After a few minutes regained some positive feel to the level and limped home on the backroads using gears 1-5. So back at Turbo Monkeys, again couldn't replicate the issue (fenny single carriageway roads over there!) but thought it sounded like the gearbox was overheating when on longer trips in 6th. They had a replacement gearbox there (the reason i went to them in the first place), so they went ahead and swapped the box over from a 2016 car, including replacing the rear prop shaft seal too. Needless to say the replacement is absolutely fine, and whilst they were at it got rid of the hideous front numberplate brick so looks better now too! Would definitely recommend turbomonkeys. Their first attempt to fix was under my instruction and basically didnt want to screw me over recommending a new box if i didnt need it right away (we still dont know what the issue was with my last box - they're going to strip it down eventually). They work on a lot of our cars and subarus. I'm sure you've seen their 1uz v8 swaps, very impressive! If i get an update from them on what the issue was i'll post it up on here Cheers for all your inputs

Can vouch for the guys there at Turbo Monkeys, knowledgable and very helpful Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

After a Tuning developments super res cat back exhaust if anyone is selling? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Okay, this one's already imported and sat in London somewhere (where japaneseperformanceparts are based), so shopping is £60 [emoji106] Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Thanks, after speaking to a few people I think I'm gna go for a used box as it opens a can of worms when it crack open these boxes so would rather replace the lot. Found a jdm one from jap performance parts, can't imagine there is any difference but will a Japanese box fit a UK car no issues? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

For sale cobra sports/high flow secondary cat Only selling as needed stock cat back in for noise +legality after catless manifold Few scape marks (see pic) but overall good condition. White stuff is exhaust paste Collection from Peterborough £130 Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I think you risk an mot failure more with these yes than with the stock cat (if you have decat manifold), hence I've gone back to stock cat With stock manifold, MOT was fine with this sports cat, as the primary manifold cat does most of the work! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Sold! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

What a day! Really enjoyed that today. Felt like I've connected more with the car, and that there's so much more to learn that I first realised! Cheers for organising the night before Vad, hope you get the TD manifold issue sorted Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Popping/ loud clicking noise from the front, doesn't appear to be one side in particular. Only during slow turns, can hear around 8s and then more so when I'm pulling onto my drive. Seems to be getting louder over time. Any ideas? Video is on link below. Excuse the filthy water droplets! Going to fensport for a service soon and will get it checked out https://photos.app.goo.gl/kyMg7JESwCeEqZg9A Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
