  1. TRD Cover - payment received @Cfb86 Just the Mishimoto silicone hose left. Thank you to the buyer
  2. @Cfb86 TRD Aero cover under offer - so please no more pms On hold waiting payment. Thank you
  3. Hey - just an update. Exhaust sold on other forum. Just the TRD Aero and Mishimoto intake pipe to go. I'll check my pms and reply to you about the TRD guys - thanks!
  4. Hi all. I am located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. I'm happy to travel to meet you for petrol money, ideally we'd meet somewhere in the middle if you're far away. This would only apply for the exhaust as the other 2 items can be posted. All items are available for collection if you prefer. I have also posted this on the other UK GT86 Forum where I am more well known and been a member for +5 years. https://www.gt86ownersclub.co.uk/threads/q300-exhaust-mishimoto-silicone-intake-trd-rear-aero-stabaliser-4k-miles-done.19341/ I have the following parts for sale. £ 66 - Mishimoto Silicone Induction Hose - fits Subaru BRZ / FRS / Toyota GT86 (Original cost £106) SOLD £750 - Invidia Q300 Catback Exhaust System Titanium Tips FITS: Toyota GT86 Subaru BR-Z (Original cost was £955) SOLD £100 - TRD Aero Stabilizing Cover For 86 (ZN6) MS346-18001 (Original Cost was £175) Prices do not include delivery. If you want to buy all 3 items and collect/meet. I can knock some more money off. Each part has been on my car for a little over 6 months. I have sold my GT86 and in this time they've covered 4,000 miles. The parts are essentially almost new. Exhaust obviously has a bit of road grime on it to be expected but nothing major... pretty shiny still all in all! A bit of autosol and it would look absolutely brand new. I have sold quite a bit of things on here in my time, including another Q300 exhaust so this isn't my first rodeo. Payment will be via bank transfer or Paypal friends and family only. I do not accept cash. Please consult the pictures below: Mishimoto Silicone Intake Hose:
  5. "Won't risk shipping"? Why? It's £500 value, the insurance cost is absolutely minimal. You're looking at £70 fully insured and delivered to the UK. You'd probably get more interest with shipping - especially now with second lockdown. Making a journey nationally for these wheels I'm pretty sure would be frowned upon.
  6. Bump I'll accept £45
  7. TRD Front and Rear Black Toyota Badges: These badges were made by Pete Thompson - https://www.instagram.com/pete39sp/?hl=en Cost around £120 including postage - You will need some 3M tape to stick them to your car. Located: Lincoln Happy to post. £55 + postage
  8. I'm amazed to hear the ages of some of you. I think it's fantastic (I appreciate I sound condescending). I'm 30 years old and it makes me smile knowing that some of you guys still in 60s are out there enjoying cars. Gives me hope for the future! The sad story of my car was a 65 year old retiree bought his dream car for retirement, and died from undiagnosed cancer 3 weeks later. That's how I came to get my car. It's a 69 plate that I picked up this July with 200 miles on the clock... the family only sold it to me because they knew it was my dream car. I couldn't pay anywhere near it's true value. I felt bad at the time for buying someone else's dream, particularly at the price they sold to me. They seemed happy to sell it to an enthusiast though. It makes me happy and I think as a car lover who is way too attached to his car. If I ever had to get rid of my car, giving it to someone who would appreciate it would make me happy. Anyway, it was a sad story and I truly felt sorry for the original owner (also, called James and he had the same birth date as me... another reason the family sold it to me! interesting coincidences!) Anyway I'm way off topic. But it just made me think. Congratulations and welcome to the world of the twins (GT86/BRZ). Enjoy it, they're fantastic cars and I hope you'll be able to enjoy this one for 15 years. Quite reliable, decent servicing costs. Fun... has backseats (that can be used in a pinch!)... fold the seats down and it becomes very practicable. I've had hatchbacks (208gti) that had less space for luggage etc! Anyway take care and enjoy your new car. If you have any questions. The two UK forums are more than enough to help you. Neither, as active as they both use to be, but still enough. Here's a picture of mine: (You need to upload one of yours! @tomlee80

    225/45/17 tyres?

    My primacies were brand new really... I'd done ~2k miles on them. But they're just not good tyres overall, they're pretty okay in the dry. But since having the PS4 it really highlights how poor they were. I went 225 purely because of cost, was about £40 cheaper a tyre... I got them for around £60 a tyre. Including ATS euro discount + cashback from halifax + cashback from top cash back. But they only had 225, but zero regrets. Plus the tyres look/feel better than my 215s ever did.

    @BRZ-123 A general update... Absolutely loving my tyres. 225 is fantastic, PS4 also fantastic. I worried it would kill the fun of the car, but no. Just given supreme confidence and made the car a blast, as you can really really hold the speed now through the corners. Truly the best purchase I've made thus far. To anyone on the fence, 225 is fine. PS4's are excellent. Have a look for cashback offers... I got mine for a very cheap price all in all.

    I'm finding my 225 tyres absolutely fine. No difference in steering tbh. Just feels grippier which is what I wanted anyway. I'm very happy, would I be happier on 215? Who knows. But 225 I've run for ~500 miles now and they're fantastic.
