I'm another one with a big f**k off crack in their windscreen....😣

This is a great thread.

I have had this happen to me, only once. Plenty of fuel, in the summer, no warning lights. Restarted and it was fine. It has not (yet) repeated itself. I think all this talk of fuel level, icy warning etc are red herrings. I think there is either a universal bug in the mapping somewhere, or...

Thanks

Can anyone confirm whether both front and rear pads are interchangeable with standard (non performance pack) GT86 pads?

That's it.... So maybe we are part of the problem too!

Glad it's not just me. The car has great lights but my eyeballs feel completely zapped after a long journey at night. Not sure to what extent headlight output is regulated, but it feels dangerous at times when you are passing an SUV and have no idea what is in front of you.

I used to have a 350Z and the GR86 copes better with standard brakes. As above, pads and fluid are a good idea if doing trackdays more seriously, but for a light trackday as you describe it, you might notice some fade, but it won't be drastic. I also think you're being overly cautious changing...

Yes - it's fine, especially in winter. But I will be getting upgraded fluid as there is discernible fade after 15 mins or so pushing hard.

I think we'll have to agree to disagree there!

You've rejected your car over a curable rattle?

Legend!! Thank you so much. So it's just the join then :)

I'd be grateful if someone could confirm whether their serpentine belt has a join in it somewhere that looks like the photo below. I only saw it by chance, so I'm trying to work out if it was like that from the factory, or if I've hit some debris that has cut the belt. Thanks!

This was an OG 2017 one, so as light as they get. It felt too artificial. This isn't me being defensive of the GR86 - I was fully prepared to switch, but then when I got back into the 86, I realised just how good it was. All I would change would be better engine sound and getting hydraulic...

Test drove an M2. Then realised the GR86 is better in pretty much every way that I care about (chassis, slip progressiveness, gearshift, engine response, mechanical interaction). Very surprisingly, it didn't actually feel that much slower either.

Hit a wood pigeon at speed. Poof.

Just riding through the Essex countryside and saw a nice red GR86 parked up. Checked it out while I was on my motorbike so apologies if you saw/heard me and thought I was a pikey on the rob🤣

Any intel on whether you realistically need forged internals like the GT86?

Very few cars look decent with any kind of graphics on. This is no exception...

Agreed
