    GR86 Deep Sumps

    My FD oil pan has just been delivered. Great quality casting, very happy with it. Should be being fitted in the next couple of weeks!

    GR86 Deep Sumps

    I’m also biding my time before ordering, one thing I noted in the Verus video was the inclusion of the drain back pipes in the pan, which they said stopped smoke on startup, does anyone know if the FD pan includes those? Maybe @Grblue86 could you send some pics of the inside of the pan when it...

    GR86 Exhausts

    Hi, I’ve had a Cobra non-resonated fitted for about 10k miles now, for me it’s absolutely perfect. Around town and on low revs/partial throttle very civilised, no drone on the motorway etc. When you’re on it though it makes a lovely rich note, and once you’ve got it hot enough you get some...

    GR86 Deep Sumps

    Good news everyone! Formula Delta have released their oil pan, currently for pre-order, then I believe in pre-production, and then finally for general sale. Current pricing is £650 for general sale (pre-prod will be discounted I believe)...

    GR86 GR86 Track Prep - GR Cup insider knowledge

    Sorry guys think there was a miscommunication somewhere, I don’t think they replace the gearbox oil with 75w140 - possibly the diff? But that seems far too thick for the gearbox!

    GR86 GR86 Track Prep - GR Cup insider knowledge

    Hi All, A friend of mine managed to get chatting to someone who helped setup a GR Cup race series, and asked a few questions about how they prep the cars. Hope the following is helpful! “He said the gearboxes are tough, but fail quickly with the factory oil, particularly the synchros. He...

    GR86 Deep Sumps

    Hi guys, anyone else thinking of fitting the Verus or Formula Delta deep sumps when released? Any other company’s people know of that have one released or in development? Would anyone be up for trying to do a group buy for one?

    That racecool option is a much better price point for what it is, cheers for the link 👍 Got a Cobra backbox, still a briefcase style design but way smaller. Should probably get some coilovers too to lower it to take advantage of the ground effect with the splitter 🤔😂

    GR86 Speed Engineering - GR86 Aero Parts

    The brake cooling ducts look like a nice solution, but £230 for some 3D printed plastic is a bit steep! Nice idea though might steal it and print my own set 😂 Like the rear diffuser too, the massive gap under the boot where the breifcase backbox on the standard exhaust used to be must be causing...

    GR86 Uneven rear brake pad wear

    Anyone else noticed uneven rear brake pad wear? The inside rear pad on both sides was almost down to the backing on one edge, the other edge was fine and the outside pad was evenly worn and had plenty of material left on it. Wondering if it’s a design flaw with the single piston rear caliper...

    GR86 Oil cooler kit options - EU

    I’ve recently been able to give the HEL Performance oil cooler kit a proper shakedown on track… I’m pleased to say oil temps peaked at only 105C which is a huge improvement from the 125C+ I was getting within one hot lap earlier this year!

    GR86 Coolant line about to leak?

    Hi All, Was just doing a quick once over on the car and noticed this hose with a bit of adhesive(?) showing? Could someone check their’s and tell me if this is normal or not? Think it’s the coolant line for the cabin heater? No signs of a leak below the hose as far I can see.

    GR86 Exhausts

    I had a Cobra non-resonated fitted a few weeks ago now, it’s transformed the car and finally given it the sound to match its performance! No drone anywhere in the rev range, you would barely know it’s there when sitting on the motorway at 70-80mph (did 3hrs to Leeds with my partner in the car...

    GR86 Oil cooler kit options - EU

    I’ve got a HEL performance one fitted, very pleased with it, required no cutting or drilling just the removal of a couple of plastic pieces from inside the bumper, bracket fits straight onto existing holes, and sandwich plate fits with standard oil filter under the bonnet.
