    Really enjoyed today very nice to meet each of you and another thank you to Nick for making the effort to DM me to come.
    I grabbed some advice and contacts for my car and look forward to making those happen.
    Video as promised it is 'unlisted' on YouTube so you only find it with the URL, anyone don't want it up just let me know.

    Almost a dead thread - until now!
    Some 'new' (for me) wheels arrived after much searching and looking!
    6.56 to 6.64kg each - nice and light!  Well pleased!

    Well one of the nicest BRZs in the country but there was no need to sell up because I got a bigger Wang than you

    Cheers Nick,  bought a Lotus, bit more extreme! But will really miss my BRZ when it goes, 5 years of a great drive, meets and events,  and comments nearly every time I fill up etc.

    GT86-Ian reacted to smudge in Smudge's supercharged V8 build   
    Blimey, haven't updated this for a while!
    As some of you know, I finally had enough with being messed around and seeing little to no progress with the guy that's been doing the V8 swap since April 2016. I took the car from him a couple of weeks ago and I'm having a more trusted place called Carson Performance complete whatever is left to do.
    At first glance, there wasn't a huge amount of work that needed doing. Just small, fiddly bits like fuel lines, oil system for the supercharger etc. However, on closer inspection, we've unfortunately had to backtrack and redo some of the substandard work from the previous garage in order to make sure things are done properly and to a standard both Carson and I are happy with. 
    This means that we've spent 2 weeks essentially redoing work where corners have been cut. Not ideal, but at least we have peace of mind that everything is being checked to ensure we dont run into any problems once it is finally up and running...hopefully!
    Timescales now? Probably another 4-6weeks I reckon, but know knows what else we'll come across that will stop us from progressing further. 
    There's light at the end of the tunnel and I've begun to find some love for it again. The guys at Carson also have an 86 so there's a personal passion for the car and their enthusiasm shines through the fantastic work they do. I'm kept up to date almost daily, even when it's bad news so that we can agree on a solution. 
    Will try and keep this updated, hopefully with some good news soon.

    Thanks very much for watching my YouTube videos I'm passionate about showing my love for cars lol
     
    Despite moving to another platform I will still be making GT86 videos too as I've made so many friends with fellow owners!
     
    Also, just to update this post, the car now has a buyer!

    Why not take the bulbs off and see what happens? Getting the bubs in/out is a 10 min job, then if the fuses stop blowing you know it's the fogs. If it's the only thing that's been changes then it's the 1st place I'd be looking to prove.
