    GR86 K & N Panel Filter

    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.

    GR86 Possible Change of Wheel Colour.

After a visit to a body shop yesterday, will be getting the brake Calipers painted Red when they can fit me in, which will hopefully lift the standard Calipers, and improve the appearance somewhat. My car is silver. So, my question is….. what colour...

    GR86 Duckbill

    GR86 Service Schedules

    Other than keeping the revs down for the first 1000 miles, I read occasionally that an oil change is also a good idea. Whats the official position? And is it something that many people do. No plans to track the car, so just normal road spirited driving etc.

    GR86 TPMS

    Hi all, here is what is a very basic question, but, never having owned a car previously with TPMS fitted (TVR’s, MG’s etc) am just interested on how the system that is fitted to the GR86 actually works, and where exactly are the sensors located. Also, how accurate/reliable are they? Many thanks.
