Thank you Sonic, you have confirmed what I was possibly thinking👍👍

Hi all. Put my car up forsale this afternoon, and within an hour have had someone wanting to come and view. He wants to know if I would get an inspection report from digitchecks.com before he comes to view. He says that the report can only be accessed by the owner, and so wants me to pay for a...

With a heavy heart have just placed an Ad in the classified section. In no hurry to sell, but will miss it when gone. Enjoyed the last three and a half years👍

With a heavy heart, it is time to let my gr86 go to a new home. Registered on 30th January 2023, with just 3094 miles, and has been looked after by Stephen Eagle in St Ives, Cambridgeshire, so has a full dealer service history. It has been used as a second car, and only on dry days. Has been...

Centre gets my vote👍

Sounds like the same as applying the Lanoguard. In the end, used an old spray bottle, put some of the Lanoguard in, which I had warmed up, which seemed to help, and then had a fine more manageable spray, which you could nicely apply on the actual part that you wanted covering, rather than all...

The ACF 50 mentioned above, is that an alternative to Lanoguard? I have used Lanoguard on my daily, and seems ok, easy to apply, no nasty chemicals (basically sheep fat/Lanolin ) but is quite messy to apply. Am thinking about protecting the underneath of my GR86, but deciding which is the best...

Indeed, they are smoked chrome. I originally thought about Black Chrome, but felt that would have been a little to dark👍 I kept my original wheels as spares, as managed to get hold of a set from someone who was changing their wheel design, and they do look quite dull and dowdy when next to the...

Took couple of wheels off this morning to give a good spring clean, and thought a couple of pictures. You just carn’t beat a bit of car porn😉🤣👍 It’s probably me, but just love to see clean wheels with brake calipers😎👍

This thread is useless without a picture😉🤣🤣👍 Which model, 981 or 718?

In for 3 year service and 1st MOT this week. Only 2800 miles I’m ashamed to say🙈 Have made a promise to myself to use it more this year. Love the car to bits, but tend to be a bit annal about keeping her clean😉🤣🤣🤣😎

Good move, I went for the Cobra non res one. Made a welcome improvement to the sound track👍 Not too loud, but it now sounds more like a sporty car👍

Thanks Sonic, much appreciated👍 In your opinion, Is the panel filter a worthwhile option, or do you think the cold air intake is a better option? Car only used weekends and high days, never likely to go on a track. Just looking for a bit more of an oral sound (to compliment the cobra back box)😉🙂

Have been away from the forum for far to long, due to life getting in the way! So, not being too mechanically minded, was thinking of replacing the standard air filter with a K & N panel filter. My questions are:- Is this a straight replacement? Would it affect the warranty? Many thanks.

Quick update. Was talking to my neighbour who has recently moved in, and the subject of cars came up, as he was looking at the Gr. Turns out he runs his own garage. Told him about the change of wheels and Toyota’s charge for re-programming the new I’d codes for the new tpms’s for the new set of...
