Hi What are the Nankang tyres ? Ta

I have had a revised gear stick/linkage done under warranty and mine is fine now. Try messaging Riceburner at Macclesfield RRG who is very good with warranty issues.

FYI The RCE Yellows are approx $385 delivered to the UK plus VAT on import duty.

This seems the right place to put this, I have just fitted proline springs and will have this set up properly so I am aiming for 1 1/2 - 2 deg neg camber at the front and 1 1/2 neg at the rear. Will I need camber bushes to correct the rear as I believe it will be nearer -2 and may differ side to side ? and plan to use camber bolts at the front but is there enough adjustment if I use 2 of the small standard bolts on the strut at the front ? also what toe settings would you recommend ? cheers

Looks great (even better when lowered !) Mines white and can't make my mind up to go with white speedlines or anthracite ultraleggera's but you may have persuaded me to go white wheels !

Pity they are 18" as I am looking for some but 17" although I will now look for Impreza wheels too !

Me too as TD is not far from me and would rather have a map done close to home incase of any issues.

Lauren, would you say the V105's are better than Contact 5 for sprinting or longer track use ? Thanks

Hi did you find any logs Mike ?

Hi Mike Do you have any power graphs for this manifold ? I am looking to mod mine or sell up !! Or may look longer term at turbo or charger kit esp the HKS as its getting very tempting at the reduced price. cheers

Oh yeah, missed off 'the monkey drunk wine'...it was a long day yesterday.....

369 whp well it rhymes anyway lol

I get what your saying Lauren, on my clio that I sprinted for a few years a change from T1R to AD08 tyres was 1.5 secs quicker compared to throttle bodies that made only 5/10ths difference (+15hp). As always the driver makes all the difference.

I have but unless you know whats been done to the modified cars is difficult to see what mods work best. Cheers

A great thread this and always lots of debate on rr figures but how much difference power wise does it take to show in lap times ? my experience would say very little around the 10-15 hp difference. I keep thinking that the £500+ cost of a map would be better off spent elsewhere to bring lap times down ie tyres,suspension set ups. Then theres not so much worrying if you have any issues around warranty work.

Have a read of this thread http://www.gt86.org.uk/forums/topic/2361-interesting-read/#comment-35493

Can these use the standard top mounts ? Cheers

I have had this a couple of times where the car doesn't see the key so wont lock or unlock. I tried new batteries but made no difference the dealer said that it could be interference from phone masts etc It has not done it for a few weeks now..... sorry not much help just another "characteristic" of the cars lol

I thought that the early cars had the newer maps done at a service to fix the earlier running issues ??

Just seen this on a well known auction site http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-GT86-for-Motorsport-use-only-No-Registration-/141795845636?hash=item2103b0e604:g:dkUAAOSwNNxWFUXa

Any chance of doing a run on mine for this price, although I can't make it on the day

Just a thought, have you tried selling them on a Gtr forum (if there is one !)

Nice info Nigel , you are certainly putting in all the work behind the mods rather than just cutting it all away. Hope your not throwing those "old " wheels away lol

I may call in next week for a coffee and a chat as I am off work with the sprogs

Looks like I am now going to be at the opposite end of the country so can't make it
