    How to select Exhaust Manifold

    The nameless is significantly different, they might have had the up and over idea first though? P&L is near identical to a fa20club and came first.

    How to select Exhaust Manifold

    The FA20Club manifold is a copy of a P&L, so don't give them credit! The up bend on the TD is actually noticeably different, having compared mine with others at sprints. It bends more to the drivers side of the engine and is closer to the coolant line. I'd be interested to know whether there would be any issues with it and Harrop superchargers etc though.

    Does anyone know this car?

    That's the fog light lol

    What supercharger? (Maybe turbo)

    For a slightly more linear power delivery a Harrop supercharger from @Mark@Abbey M/S or a Cosworth unit from @Lucas@PartBox are well proven.

    All Sold Please lock thread

    If they don't come with a selection of shims you will need them. Shouldn't cost much from Reyland.
  7. I'm still hoping they give us all a brand new engine! I bet they're pretty concerned with the potential kick back from the inevitable cock ups. Even if 10% go wrong the reputational damage could sink the Supra.
  8. Total what, in the recall or overall?
  9. Going off rough numbers on how many left, I think around half of all GT86's will be affected by this recall. Most were sold early on, and a trickle since. Makes sense, as most people on the forum seem to be affected. Call it roughly 2500 cars. There's 177 Toyota dealers in the UK, so that's an average of 14 engine removal and strip downs each. Given most Toyota dealers probably haven't taken apart a boxer engine before this is going to get very interesting. That's before you take into account that a relatively high ratio of 86's will be modified.

    2012 Toyota GT86 - SOLD

    You wouldn't need to remap as such after removing the charger, just reflash to the stock map which anyone can do with the ecutek cable etc.

    2012 Toyota GT86 - SOLD

    That's really cheap, bargain for someone. Tbh you really should sell the modifications, you're almost giving it away.

    Filling up problem

    My car has developed some sort of issue which frustrates filling up with petrol via petrol pumps. This started happening a couple weeks ago, the petrol pump will shut off immediately unless you start very slowly, then after a couple quid you can build it up very slowly up to a normal filling rate. Which lasts for about £10 and you have to start again. Has anyone else had this happen? I've seen a couple mentions on the yank forums but nothing here.

    Crawford Performance Intake Spacers

    GT86 has two sets of fuel injectors, it won't suffer from this issue.

    Crawford Performance Intake Spacers

    Forget E85, you'd get even better gains with kryptonite - and it'd probably be more widely available in the UK.

    Cosworth Baffle Plates - Prevent engine damage

    Can you still get hold of these @Lucas@PartBox?

    Evo Triangle - 4th November 2018

    Enjoy while it lasts. Mobile cameras seemed to be most often by the reservoir.

    Filling up problem

    It happens at every station now, all over the country. Definitely something has gone wrong. There's a few threads on ft86club referring to the inner of the fuel pipe coming from the filler detaching, on early 13's, which mine is. Ever seen this @Riceburner?

    Getting my head around BBKs

    Another advantage is the BBK will be lighter. You wouldn't believe it unless you fitted yourself but the larger calipers are a fraction of the weight of the OEM stuff, light enough to lift with your little finger! Must be saving over a kilo a wheel.

    Best Brake Discs?

    Hope they stay good for you. After I had problems read a number of other cases of others having the same issue so maybe there was a bad batch. Or maybe the Jazz had too much performance for them!

    Best Brake Discs?

    I'd avoid the cheap Brembo discs from Eurocarparts. Fitted them all round to my wife's old Honda Jazz and the buggers warped within a few months.
  21. Impressive. Got any pics of that?
