    France and Spain Roadtrip

    The Picos are superb. Apart from the driving, the cable car up to one of the peaks and then the walk down is well worthwhile... But I love it there, it's like the greatest hits of the Pyrenees, Alps and Dolomites in what is a relatively small area. Coast there is nice too.

    Well we were discussing on here a while back that there was an 86 in Woolacombe with a club sticker on it that two of us had spotted independently whilst on holiday, but don't think we figured out who ;-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  9. I'd sacrifice significant body parts for the Initial D tribute - but they've not finished with that one (unless Lauren snaffled it already to match her AE86 ;-D) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Anyone who doesn't own one already should be right on these. The graphics alone are ace. I agree that the pricing is very reasonable. The Red one for me... but I would say that! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Parkers running a GT86

    Interesting to catch up. Particularly enjoyed the Fiesta/GT86 head to head. It was a toss up between those two when I bought my car - like you the Toyota shaded it, as it's just a bit more 'special' - but the Fiesta is also a cracking drivers car - no doubt... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Paul's Pearl White '86

    Doesn't look vastly different to the state of mine when I got rear ended by a confused elderly man in a Nissan Primera. RRG managed to bash out the wing ok... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Spotted in Woolacombe Devon.

    Oh - does that live there? I saw a white one there at Easter when I was on holiday. Didn't notice the club stickers though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Deacons '86

    Not too bad. About the same weight as my Team Dynamics in the same size. I was happy that they were near to stock weight but bigger. I'm running the usual Yokohamas on mine and love it. Not too much wheel/tyre. It'll still move about but a little less twitchy. For the road I'm really happy with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Remap

    Yep. I have a different manifold and air filter only and a remap has made a significant difference. Perhaps only 15bhp at the top end, but significant gains in midrange torque. I felt it a good return on investment. Another vote for TD from me (they did mine). All the other reputable specialists are a lot further from you, apart from anything else...

    A little lower

    I see your point on the height, but not how tucked the wheels are into the rear arches! Oh I agree there. The stock offset is just weird. I really don't understand why Toyota don't offer a fatter wheel/tyre option - if nothing else it'd look better in the showroom to the punter who's just been down the road and seen a TT or something on 19s...

    A little lower

    In the end I bought B14 coilovers rather than the B6 shocks, purely because in at the time I think I only paid about £100 more - you could get a bigger discount on the coilovers for some reason... no idea why... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    A little lower

    I think you're right that it is a limited market - but I'd be in it. I wanted better shocks, not lower suspension. And you can do that... Nothing wrong with stock springs - fit a set of Bilstein B6s to go with them. The only catch is that's barely any cheaper than a set of decent coilovers... Hence I did what I did. I mainly went for the Bilsteins as they don't lower much - less than the Teins. I'm with Church... I know pretty much everyone who mods their car lowers it - but all you're doing is reducing suspension travel and for fast road use you want as much suspension travel as you can get... That said - no regrets in going for a modest drop. There's no doubt it looks better... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    A little lower

    I felt the same. I bought Bilstein B14 coilovers and had them installed at the highest setting. I recon its about 15-20mm lower. Handling is much better due to the quality of the dampers - less unsettled by bumps. Ride is probably firmer at low speed but I can live with that.
