GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

Hope you can make it to Jap Fest. Keen to hear the exhaust. 👍
Both @chopper602 and I will be attending Japfest in our (almost identical) cars, both are fitted with Cobra Sport Cat-Back exhausts. Mine is non-resonated and chopper's is resonated. We could maybe even deliver a side-by-side comparison show ... "roll up, roll up, git yah tickets ere!" :giggle:

Perfect
 
First service today after a month delay due to lack of oil filter. All seemed unremarkably straightforward, even received a video of the car up on the lift with some overlay of tyre depths, etc. Was surprised how clean it looked under there!

Highlight was following a white GR86 into Northampton, seemed to be on the way to school or nursery judging by at least one child seat in there! Had a wave in the mirror - hello if you’re on here!
 
Same! They're my next tyre! (assuming he means v107 not v701 which is a mid range thing)

Yep typo!

I run the original AD08R on the S660 and really do want to try the AD09 but just can't justify it with all my commute miles

I used to run the AD08 on my ITR - fabulous tyre and with that car was basically perfection.

But I'd suggest to sticky for the GR unless you want laptimes?

I had AD08R on my Elise Cup. Great for road driving but not so much for track.
Will defo be trying them on my GR86 though.
 
Thought I’d fit my AliExpress side rear window louvres. Turns out the advert info was duff; they don’t fit the GR86 at all, more than likely for the GT86 🤬. Never mind … £11 refund. I live to ‘Rice’ another day!

Would love to see a video of the side-by-side comparison
 
Bit of an odd one today, happened to glance in my rear view while starting the car at a frosty 5am and noticed the brake lights flashing while it cranked, not sure if it was the cold, toyota have fitted a smaller battery than they should for savings or mine is packing up after 13 months

Maybe the latter. Our cars sat for a lot of time in a lot before delivery
 
Thought I’d make the most of a break in the weather and the milder temperatures and get some miles in, really enjoying get a feel for the car.

Also framed and put the GR86 print from Toyota up in the garage having had the Gazoo Racing side reproduced at a printers.

I put mine up on my wall with my others. Never thought of getting the other side copied. May do that myself.

I’m sure I saw it somewhere on here and thought it was a good idea, think it works well.

Nice pics of your Lotus and liking the layout of them. 👍🏼

Thanks. Having the other side of the print framed on the other side would balance them up.
