Due to a brake upgrade the space saver wheel I have is too small (fits fine over standard brake calipers and disc). I bought as a second hand Subaru space saver wheel but I have had a new tyre fitted and painted the wheel rim in hammerite black so it is not as in your face as the original yellow/cream. Only test fitted on the front and then kept in the boot until now.
Location is just on the outskirts of Liverpool of the M62. Looking for £25 (pick up only please due to cost and size / weight of wheel) and happy to hold it here if needed until the current lockdown rules are changed.

Seems like a good time to bump this thread in the current climate, with the restrictions going out seems like a good idea to do Covid 19 polishing!
Seems like a good way to view the rafters in the garage 🤔👍

Might want to drop them a mail as I was put on the wrong list at first but it was corrected quickly after contacting them

It's surprising easy to access, fold the rear seat down and pull the side cover away from where the seat is. The rear seat belt bolt is accessed from below. I took the clip off which sits just under the original rear seat to make the gap bigger for the two belts then fed the harness over the top of the rear belt after bending the bracket up slightly to give clearance. Bolted the seat belt back into place and pushed the trim back into place. For the fixing at the side of the seat I just undone the bolts in the seat rails, tilted the seat forward and put a block of wood under the rail so I could access the seat belt bolts. All would have been done in about 20 mins if I didn't drop the rear seat belt bolt and have to left the rear seat up to get it back! Either way if you don't fancy it yourself it's not difficult so should cost a lot in labour.

Anglesey last time out was my first time sprinting and seeing what the tss was like. Turned up not really knowing what I was doing but was guided though the day by everyone there and really enjoyed it. Left the day still not knowing what I was doing (more to do with my driving ability though after the timed runs😉). Really gratefully for all the friendly help on the day and was glad I gave it a go. Just gutted I can't make the next one 😢

Many thanks to everyone who guided me though the day
, really enjoyed it and clearly lots of areas to work on for improvement!

46 minutes ago, Lauren said:You can do, I've done it before. As I compete for the championship I've got the stickers on magnetic strip which is more convenient. A complete guess at how much but about 100x50cm or so.
Many thanks, will have a look around Amazon
-
On the website it mentions stickers need to be displayed for the sponsors. Do people apply these directly to the paint work and are they easy to remove at the end of the day or do people get magnet sheet to stick the stickers too then use the magnet sheet to attach them to the car (if yes how much is needed?)
-
All set to come along and give this a go, really looking forward to it (done one track day and want to get back out for another go!). Go easy on the newbie please 😁

That's what I was thinking but I know I was car no 1 based on the registration sticker. I agree though 57 seems far to low!
-
Thanks for the service at the weekend Mike. Here is the photo of the passed noise test from Oulton park with the EL manifold kit, map and TD resonated cat back system on. Not sure if the 57 is the result as it sounds louder than this to me, either way no issues with being allowed on track!

Eincar unit installed, usb splitter cable used to add an extra connection in the glove box and keep the standard one functional for charging. No complaints with the unit itself so far after a couple off trial runs out (still getting it set up to my liking). Biggest issue was the mounting brackets where miles off and needed some work to make them fit (nothing a bit of cutting and drilling wouldn't fix)
-
Thanks for the info everyone, based on the cheap price of the eincar unit I've decided its with ago. Just need to pick up some harnesses and brackets for a double din unit and will see how it goes
-
Anybody got any experience of something like this:
Any idea if there would be any fitting issues?
-
Found myself tempted by the thought of the functionality an Android head unit can offer. Anyone with one already fitted in an 86 or experience / recommendations of good head units and what to look out for?
-
Hopefully I will get chance to head over after work to see what's happening, get a better understanding of what's involved and get to meet some of the club members

Interesting stuff. Seems basic items and common sense (which is often the easiest thing missed and obvious in hindsight after an issue).Many thanks

Hello all, looking at doing my first track day this year and was wondering what (if any) tools people take with them for the just in case events. Comments from "nothing I just turn up" through "cable ties and strong tape" up to "spare can full of complete garage, jacks and ramps and personal mechanic etc". Also wondering what people do with the tools if they take them while they are out on track? Many thanks
-
Done some modifications as soon as the 1,000 miles clicked over, TD EL manifold, overpipe and res cat back exhaust, k&n drop in filter with ECUteK ecu mapped by TD. TD fast road brake kit. Powerflex rear gearbox bush and MTEC shifter springs. Couldn't recommend Tuning Developments enough, car feels, sounds and responds much better IMHO (bye bye torque dip
) and service was fantastic. Plan next is just to enjoy it and get some more miles on the clock to see if I feel suspension upgrades would benefit me. Hopefully get to the TD open day in April to see some of the other 86's about.

New to forum, had my GT86 for a couple of months breaking her in and enjoying the drive and experience so far, looking to get a bit more involved this year so hopefully see some of you around at the shows and hopefully at the track at some point.
