    GR86 White GR86 from Singapore

    Thanks! Been a little busy and havent installed that oil cooler take off. Hopefully within the next 2 months and definately will update this. No problem with making a small batch but let me install mine to make sure all good first hahaha. I am on the fence about the oil catching dish because...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    I used 3M 94 adhesion promoter on the plastic before sticking mine. Still holding together after a year. But now I feel like getting a matt finish one... fml.

    So..... I swapped the door card. Was irritated that the door opening is too small for my big safety boots when the door checker is at the first "check" position. Cos the stock door card is so bloody thick at the bottom (to give space for the water bottle pocket). With this the thickness is...

    Added in the super rare GR Intake. Seems to be slightly quieter/less throaty compared to my original diaperless JDM stock intake (with all resonators removed except the kidney). LTFT seems to stabilise <3% for the various load points. No CEL. No discernible effect on drivability (i have a numb...

    GR86 White GR86 from Singapore

    Finally got around to installing it, with loads of thermal paste and a little epoxy at the top edge to keep it down since the bolts are only along the bottom. Re-used the bolts that clamp the diff cover down, 47Nm torque, 3D printed part did not explode. Does it work? Who knows. Haven't had a...

    GR86 Glove box hate

    Yes sir! I have the drawings if anyone need. Does need elbow grease. Sticker makes it nicer too! But the dash at the door side (ie under the AC vent) can't really be helped/cut away so it still is an irritation hahaha!

    GR86 Best induction kit for airflow?

    My 2027 Christmas present came early (yes i bought that many presents for myself)! Really nice and OEM. Gonna put some stick on placebo heat shield stickers at the bottom and then its going in the car! The charcoal diaper didnt put up a fight. A firm yank and the plastic welded tabs slipped...

    GR86 White GR86 from Singapore

    Quality of life mod. Added a replacement transparent cover for the light sensor for the auto headlights. Stock is fairly opaque. Hopefully it makes it more sensitive and less fickle minded during dusk on whether to turn on or off. Look for 18mm ones for toyota models 2015 and up...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    I am on 4.56 FD also. 2nd gear is useless unless I am in an autocross hahaha. I usually use 1st (when i am not in a hurry, i dun even throttle, just slowly let off the clutch hahaha) then skip to 3rd then right to 5th and lug the engine. When I want some urgency, I will drag out 3rd to 6000rpm...

    GR86 Misha Nurburgring lap in a 350bhp turbo GR86

    At least its legal. In some countries, like mine, no amount of money can legalise a turbo kit for the car. Sigh.

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    I actually ONLY close the door by pushing the glass. The base of the window not the tip of cause. Easier to wipe off oily stains from the glass then on the paint.

    GR86 What oil did you use

    I been using Toyota 0w20 SP after the break in period. Very very high moly. Decently high Ca (good for FC, bad for LSPI but cos we are NA, probably less risks) and decently high ZDDP for an SP oil. Attached is a VOA i found from oil-club.ru , correlates with...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    I second this actually. Mine had the paint badly rubbed at 2 places: 1. Top of Antenna on roof 2. Front sharp edge of bumper (ie that front edge between the front emblem and where the grill/license plate is). My cover was flapping in the wind for say a month. So I ended up putting good old...

    GR86 White GR86 from Singapore

    Congrats on your car! The 925 is really easy to install. Put the car on jack stands, and a jack under the diff, and it's say 10min for the rears and 10min for the Fronts and you are done. Watch this Done on the gt86 but basically identical procedures.
