  1. Hello everyone.

    I have been strugling for the past month to find some rubber mats for the floor of my GT86, the rain has definitely come to stay and i would like to protect the interior. I don't want some universal ones that don't fit properly because i know that later i'll be fighting with the bloody mat to get the foot where i want!!!

    Does any one have rubber mats and can give me some tips where i can find this?

    Thank you.


  2. Did you find the thread, Luis? I know this is important in your temprature zone - and I'm posting a little more info today.

    Sorry for the delay, but no i didn't!!! I have been trying to find more information because these days the air temperature have been around 35ºC and the oil temp goes to a bit below the half of the scale.

    I am seriously considering changing to 5w30 next time.


  3. About the recomended 0w20 oil.. i have some doubts about the recomended type of oil in my country because of the average temperatures here.

     

    So... the 0w20 is an oil for places with very low temperatures, since i live in Lisbon (lowest in the Winter might be around 5ºC and the highest in the summer is 40ºC and during the year the average might me arround 20º/23ºC) I think its no good to use that kind of oil. For example yesterday was 32ºC and i was thinking that all the oil was vanishing from the top of the engine.

     

    What do you think of a sinthetic 10w30?? I might have to wait a few more seconds for the engine to stabilize the temperature but i think its worth it for those days with higher temperatures.


  4. Hello everyone.

     

    Just bought my GT86, for now i will leave it stock to get to know the car better and because i don't know all the the option from what the market has to offer... and that's the main thing that made me join this forum, to read your coments and feedbacks from everyone.

    And i am thinking on getting the engine to arround 250hp but i would like to keep it N/A, or perhaps i can change my mind if there's some better as well as efficient.

     

    In the meanwhile here's a picture of it just after a wash.

     

    Thank you =]
