[Brodit phone holder for GT86 & Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge]

If you know the Brodit range, you'll know they come in two parts. One that fits the car called the mount and the other part which fits the phone called the holder.

I've sold my GT86 so no longer need this.

ProClip Angled mount for GT86 (part # 654812)   = £16.99 new

Passive holder with tilt swivel for Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Item # 511866) = £25.99 new

The holder might take other phones. You'd have to search on the Brodit website. 

£23 posted.

[Almost new brake pads]

Toyota fitted these to my GT86 on a service without asking me and within a fortnight I  had Cosworth pads fitted so these are almost new.

EDIT - £55  £45 and I'll post them to you.

I think they're fronts but am not 100% sure. I guess someone will know.

[Tyre Pressure Sensors / valves (?)]

Thanks for all the replies. I got it sorted today at National Tyres. They broke one of the control sensors removing it from the old wheel so I had to buy a new one - £90. Not their fault, it was seized and they invited me to try to get it off but we couldn't without breaking it.  Anyway, I found lots more info here: http://blog.toyota.co.uk/how-does-tpms-work if anyone is interested. You don't have to know which wheel they came off. All you need to do is fit a set that is matched to the ECU.  National Tyres simply cloned the broken one and they keep the old one in a box for six months in case it is needed again. (You cannot take it home as its presence in the car will confuse it). A few relevant pics on my blog http://beambreaking.co.uk/spiders/

Cheers

[Tyre Pressure Sensors / valves (?)]

Hi All,

I changed the wheels on my car. Now the tyre pressure light is constantly on. National Tyres say they may be able to get the old valves out of my old wheels but I need to know which corner of the car each wheel came off.  I don't. Any suggestions on how to proceed? 

Cheers

[Tuning Developments Manifold and Overpipe]

For Sale Tuning Developments Equal Length Stainless Steel Exhaust Manifold, and Stainless Steel Overpipe. This was fitted by Tuning Developments on 17 June 2017 and removed by them on 14 December 2017. It's all perfectly good but I had it removed because I was going to Part Ex my car for something else and wanted it back to standard. I've now changed my mind about selling my Giallo but that's another story and I'd feel a right fool if I had it all put back on so I'm selling it. £600.

Imho this video is rather good on describing strength and weaknesses of cup2.

 

Well that was the answer to my question wasn't it! A very intelligent summary.  Since my wife often drives my GT86 and she isn't particularly 'interested in driving' shall we say, and because I'll be driving over the Alps in June and have no idea what the weather and roads will be like, I think I won't use them.  I was also interested in the fact that even in the dry until they are up to temperature they do not have the grip you'd like. This seems to make them unsuitable for hillclimbing and sprinting.  SO, I guess I'll sell them. This isn't the right forum for that so I'll post in the correct forum in dues course.

Thanks for those answers.

[Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres]

Hi All,

I bought some wheels and tyres from Jeff last week for competition use. The tyres are Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2s.  Now my plans have changed as I have bought a different car to race. My question is - Do you think these  tyres are OK for normal road use?  (Not winter use - from now till about November/December)

Thanks

Bob

Can someone tell me how to edit my signature? I found an old post from 2013 with the answer but that seems to be out of date now.

Also, is there no way to preview a post before hitting the Submit Post button?

[Tuning Developments Manifold and Overpipe]

Aghhh!  Thing is I was almost unfaithful..  I test drove a new Civic Type R and was sooo tempted and that's why I had Mike put it all back to standard so I could part ex it, but then I realised I love this GT86.... We're going to Tuscany in it in June.  But I can't face handing over more money to Mike to put it back on. What a cock up!
