BristolLee reacted to k2r79 in Tuning Developments - Super Res Catback
Today I got my remap done at HRED Motorsport and I'm really satisfied with the outcome
I also discovered that one of the previous owners had the car remapped in a weird way.
Here are the charts representing the weird remap, the stock ECU and the HRED remap :
I found the engine fuller on the whole RPM range and the difference isn't crazy like adding a turbo : the GT86 should come out the factory like that.
For those who wanted to hear the exhaust, this is for you

BristolLee got a reaction from TommyC in Pioneer SPH-DA120 Install and Review
This is something I’m not sure about. Reading the instructions for my Sony HU, it has a section about programming the unit for steering wheel controls, but I won’t know if they work until I receive all my cables to do the install.
Thanks for the link Tommy. This may come in handy if my HU doesn’t deal with steering wheel controls after all 😐🤔

Didn't bother with the handbrake wire. I'm pretty sure it's to stop videos being played whilst you're on the move... I've never played any video content on any headunit I've owned and don't intend to start! 🙂

BristolLee got a reaction from McDude in Pioneer SPH-DA120 Install and Review
General_Kirby, I was just thinking the same! Good work McDude. Thank you!
Could either of you tell me or provide a link to where you bought your harness cables and surround from please??
I got 25% off this today! Can’t wait to fit it at the weekend but only want to do it with all the right bits in hand.

BristolLee reacted to MangoNo5 in The Exhaust Thread
I have the Decatted HKS manifold, with the miltek overpipe, Berk front pipe and HKS Legamax S-Tail exhaust kit.
love the sound, not too aggressive until you really rev if up. Benefits wise the 4-2-1 manifold definitely helped great rid of the torque dip and overall weight saving from the OEM parts.
Downside being the issue of an MOT fail with the Berk front pipe.

Can I just comment on how useful your original post was. I went to buy a BRZ on Thursday and used your guide to order all cables (and Halfords for a Pioneer SPH-D230DAB as they had it at a good price) and managed to get it all installed over the weekend.
Also did the DAB under the speaker grill as suggested above and its working but haven;t tried it in many places yet.

BristolLee got a reaction from Keethos in Hello! I've finally put my money where my mouth is!
Surprise!
After an unexpected arrival at Fish Bros on Wednesday, I was able to pick up my car yesterday afternoon!
It's perfect inside and out (now I've swapped the rear number plate bolts round so black is on black and yellow on yellow ).
60 or so miles yesterday and off out for a jaunt around Bristol, Gloucester and South Wales today. Wave if you see me!
Interestingly, I asked the dealer about running in and was told '500 miles no more than 4k rpm and then just drive it and no inspection at 1000miles'. This is different to what's in the owners manual; so I will be double checking that but it's already good.
I'm so happy with it. It's taken so long to get it that it's a dream! See you all at Japfest

I think I can safely say you've got brilliant taste in cars. Here's one I picked up just a couple of days before you! Can't wait to see what you do with it!

BristolLee got a reaction from Lauren in Hello! I've finally put my money where my mouth is!
Cheers both.
Loving it indeed. 😁 Not even taken many photos of it yet as when I've managed to get out I. It, I've been driving not wanting to stop for snaps.
About 650miles at the moment @Lauren. I've had a couple of weeks where I've been in hire cars etc away with work, so it's only been used on weekends.
This weekends round trip to Japfest should pretty much finish off the running in. See you there

Hi Lee, hope you're having fun and it must be run in by now! See you at Japfest, or in the hotel bar if you're staying over.

BristolLee reacted to Igi in Wheel Sealant
On budget - I'd second Poorboys Wheel Sealant - smells heavenly and for the price and ease of application it's very effective, had them on my previous wheels and the only downside was that it didn't last nowhere near long enough.
Now I've got C5 applied and sometimes in between washes topped with C2v3 and I'm always amazed at how easily I can clean the wheels!

BristolLee reacted to KobayashiMaru in Wheel Sealant
That looks ideal. I use Collinite wax for the body and while it's good and lasts after a few coats I just wanted something tougher for the wheels
