    GR86 TPMS - New Wheels

    Bought a spare set of wheels that are from another GR86, who’s owner decided to put some aftermarket wheels on. Decided to change the colour before fitting them onto my car. After fitting them, it has brought the tpms light on, and have lost the figures on the read out. Although the new wheels...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    You will not be disappointed👍 Had mine on a few months now, and am delighted with it. Also went for the non resonated centre pipe, I think the resonated pipe may be a tad quiet! It’s not overly loud, but definately know it’s there👍👍

    GR86 GR86 Confessions

    Thought I would put this in the confession thread, to confess my anal tendencies😉🤣🤣🤣 Had one a few years ago for my TVR, and it kept the chassis bone dry, so thought it would be a good idea. It’s so easy, undo two zips, roll door up and drive out/in. Because there is a constant flow of air...

    GR86 Real World MPG

    Went to Mallory Park yesterday, a round trip of 220 miles for me. Brimmed it before I left, and then when I got back. 41 mpg actual. Very immpressed👍 Not quite reached my 1000 miles, so wasn’t pushing it, but wasn’t hanging around. Last week done the same but on shorter trips, and achieved 29...

    Currently on 718 miles, but taking it to Mallory Park tomorrow to visit the Retro Rides day, so a 230 mile round trip, will bring me nicely close to the 1000 mile mark. Will also be the first proper long run I’ve done in it. Leaving home nice and early in the morning, to at least get a little...

    GR86 Anyone had wheels resprayed silver or another colour?

    Yes, mine is booked in to get the Calipers painted at the end of the month. leaving car with them for three days, they are going to take them right off, lightly blast them in their cabinate, prime, paint and lacquer them, and then re-fit. Quite labour intensive I guess, so not going to be...

    GR86 Colour change for wheels

    Shadow Crome. looks fantastic in the right light as the shadow shows best on the rims. Will try and show tomorrow when they are actually on the car. Why is it, that one gets so excited about a set of wheels🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Bough a set from eBay, from a chap that put different wheels on his car, and was selling the originals. too good an opportunity to pass by👍 So now have a spare set.
