Yup

Yea there is more space. But ingress/egress is still irritating with that lump under the AC vent, which is not trivial to remove/replace.

Gave my car a 50,000 km birthday present: 1. Redline MTLV for the gearbox 2. Redline 75w90 for the diff 3. Toyota 0w20 for the engine Also changed the PCV valve. Didnt think i needed to change cos i was running fine. But the PCV valve came out a little gunky and the balls barely rattled even...

Final piece of thr puzzle. 3D printed in Ti these, sanded/brushed them, then torch.

FWIW, as another data point. photos from my car. No wear marks. I did remove the hood liner since day 1 (i not claiming its the cause, just stating facts). 2022 JDM GR86 RC. VIN ZN80006569. Probably a series A or B. Mileage ~50,000km.

2 years and 50,000km. Only car. Daily it, sharing with my wife. Use it to ferry my 7 year old twins (though they would start to find the rear small in maybe 3 years time) 2 track days, 2 drift sessions and 3 autocross/gymkhana so far. Runs like new. Halo white paint is a biatch to maintain and...

Curious. Why do you say specifically 4th gear? Its the gear with the carbon synchro.

Really love the white on white tc4!

Yes sir! A little off the shelf EDC knife that i screw onto the 3d printed back cover, to open fedex boxes of car parts now and then!

And this is the end state of my shifter escapade. Since i had replaced the shifter shaft anyway for the gated shifter project above, i made another, super short, shifter shaft cum knob thingy. Goal was to replicate the shifting action of an ND miata or FD3S shifter. Short wrist flicks, rather...

Reached the end state of the gated shifter. Works very well, but because i used back the stock socket/cradle of the pivot, the gate has to be much higher up in order for the fingers of the gate to not look too thin and wierd. Glad to have experienced a gated shifter once in my life. With all...

Machined Titanium cover, with a creme brulee torch hahahah!

Looks like it makes the throttle even more aggressive/non-linear?
