For reference, Tuning Developments use the Exedy Stage 1 kit in their Turbo Stage 2 package, which produces more torque than the 280nm you listed above. I know the power delivery will be different but I think Exedy understate their performance figures on their clutches.

If that's the route you want to take, go for it. It's also worth mentioning when ordering the Fuji manifold directly from the supplier it also comes with the overpipe, but there is no mention of that in the 2nd hand sales thread See: https://www.importcarparts.co.uk/parts-info?id=14006&cat=89&sub=3583&sec=0&var=0&dc=&gen=&searchKey=&searchPart= Not that you should need the overpipe as it should fit the standard one.

It'd make more sense for you to just buy an N/A package from the likes of Abbey / Fensport or Tuning Developments. By the time you spent the money on the manifold, install/fitting and custom mapping it works out about the same price, around £1500. Fensport Package - Uses a Tomei manifold: https://www.fensport.co.uk/collections/toyota-gt86-2012-to-2016/products/fensport-na-tuning-package-torque-dip-gt86-brz Tuning Developments: https://www.tuningdevelopments.uk/product_info.php?cPath=502_625_852&products_id=2567&osCsid=3lb2ul1mqgs8sqdj63r5coo804

No, it's not like an Open Flash Tablet where there are maps readly available for everyone. You need to purchase a custom map from a tuner or create your own. Fensport is £336.00 for mapping without an Ecutek License. If you need a license it's: £552.00
-
Yes, assuming you know how to create your own custom map.
-
The simplest thing for you to do, is take it to Fensport / Abbey / Tuning Developements / Amber Performance and ask them to map it for you. If you want to remote map your car using a pre-made map you need: Ecutek kit with Programming Ecutek License - Assuming your car doesn't already have a license assigned to it. If you wanted to create your own custom map you also need, in addition to the above. Ecutek RaceRom - BRZ Upgrade for Pro ECU Fensport offer a rental Ecutek programming kit, which might be a good option. You'd still need the license and someone to tune it. Search for Ecutek on the Fensport website (I'm using Fensport as it's easy to find the various option on their website): https://www.fensport.co.uk/search?q=ecutek

Tein Flex A - Suspension (Refurbished)
will300 replied to will300's topic in For Sale GT86 / BRZ Parts
These have now been sold. -
The other thing your forgetting is quite a few of the UK places will do discount of around 10% if you mention your a member of the 86 Drivers club. For example: Amber Performance list the Valenti Revo's at £642.00, but with there discount I paid £550 for my set.
-
But it's not $100 dollars shipping, it's actually $285.65 from the quote I've done, making the total £750. Then once you've added import duty and tax it'll be over £900. See the below import calculator figures (this was based on the FTSpeed prices). Duty Calculator for referrence: https://www.simplyduty.com/import-calculator/
-
Where are you finding Tein Coilovers upto £200 cheaper?
-
I can't really add anything other than what I've previously said. I wouldn't say they were too aggressive thought. Only thing I can't really comment on is disc life with them.
-
This was on there FB feed from a while back. It still look almost close to touching.
-
Will you be doing any track time? Not that it makes much difference, but you'll need slightly different supporting mods.
-
The TD turbo kit is £4500, not £4000. The £4000 pirce is there black friday price which has now expired. If you've already got the TD N/A tuning package, then to upgrade to the turbo kit is: £3850.00

If your going to build a kit yourself or want to customise an existing kit, you can get a sandwich plate with a 45° output, like: https://trackformula.co.uk/product/racinglines-oil-cooler-thermostatic-sandwich-plate-adapter/ https://turbozentrum.co.uk/Universal-Sandwich-Plate-with-Thermostat-and-Sensor-Ports-M20x15-and-3-4-16UNF?curr=GBP&gclid=Cj0KCQiA0fr_BRDaARIsAABw4EuF71gVGeUb2QneHCoxY06uO-EDIyaPaByZrEKPjLTUbWoU_OG2h2waAk--EALw_wcB For reference the Jackson Racing kit for our cars comes with a sandwich plate with this design. When I spoke to Rogue about using AN Banjo fittings on the oil cooler, they advised against using them as they are known to leak.

Ah I forgot about Carbotech brake pads, I should add them to my list. Only thing I'd say with the AX6 is they have a working temperature range upto 537°, which might be abit low for track use. I really want to get some of that brake disc temperature paint, but it's so bloody expensive. I've not had any noise from the grooved discs, other than the odd noise when reversing. Clearance should be fine on that size wheel.
-
Assuming @3782mc doesn't mind me sharing this, he was getting irregular wear on the discs and they were leaving noticeable groves on the rotors, ones you could feel.

Assuming your going for the 330mm kit with CP9200 calipers, there is massive amount of choice when it comes to pads. Here are the pads I've used: Ferrodo DS2500 - Good pad, outstanding life but lacked feel and abit lacking when cold on daily use. Endless MX72 - Excellent daily pad, will stand up to very light track work. I managed to over heated them on track so decided to switch back to the Ferrodo, before fitting the PFC 08's. PFC 08 - Best pad I've tried so far and the pad I'm currently using, excellent daily charactistics (works when cold), and has much better feel compare the the Ferrodo and has the best bite. It will last easily last for a 1hour session, being an endurance pad it should last even longer than 1 hour but I've not been out for longer than an hour. As for brake lines, I'm using the ones my kit came with which I got nearly 5 years ago and they're still ok. You should be able to use any lines for the GT86 and it's just a standard banjo fitting on the caliper, atleast I'm 99% sure it is. With regards to discs, I went for the genuine AP Racing ones as originally Reyland used remanufactured disc and the AP Racing discs had better internal cooling vains. As for the face type I'd recommend you go for straight groved, I'm aware of a few people that have had some issues with the Reyland J hook discs, @3782mc being one. Here's a list of all the available pad choices for the CP9200 caliper, that I can think of: Carbon Lorraine: Part No: 5004W50T17 Compounds Available: RC5+, RC6, RC6E, RC8, RC8R Approx Price: £210 Available from: https://www.kamracing.co.uk/manufacturers/cl-brakes/cl-brakes-browse-by-caliper/ap-racing/ap-racing-5200-caliper-cp3215-d50-pads-cl-brakes-race-brake-pads.html EBC: Part No: Various Compounds Available: Bluestuff, Orangestuff, Yellowstuff, RP-1, RP-X Approx Price: £90 Available from: https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/race-caliper-parts/ap-racing/cp9200/24000159 Endless: Part No: RCP015 Compounds Available: MX72, MX72 Plus, ME20, ME22, CC-Rg, CC43, M-Sport Approx Price: £200 Available from: https://www.nengun.com/endless/ Ferodo: Part No: FRP216 Compounds Available: DS2500, DS3000, DS1.11, DSUNO Approx Price: £150 Available from: https://www.kamracing.co.uk/manufacturers/ferodo/ap-racing-caliper/ap-racing-5200-caliper-cp3215-d50-pads-ferodo-race-brake-pads.html Mintex: Part No: MDB1292 Compounds Available: M1144, M1155, M1166 Approx Price: £102 Available from: https://www.kamracing.co.uk/manufacturers/mintex/ap-racing-calipers-mintex/ap-racing-5200-caliper-cp3215-d50-pads-mintex-race-brake-pads.html Pagid Racing: Part No: 1361 Compounds Available: RSL1, RSL29, RST1, RST2, RST3 ,RST4, RST5, RS14, RSH42 Approx Price: £102 Available from: https://www.clutchstop.co.uk/products/pagid-e1361-rs29-brake-pads.html PBS: Part No: 8223PR Compounds Available: ProRace Approx Price: £130 Available from: https://www.tegiwaimports.com/brands/pbs/pbs-prorace-brake-pads-ap-racing-caliper-cp5200-cp3215-d50.html Performance Friction (PFC): Part No: 7767 Compounds Available: Z-Rated, 08, 11 Approx Price: £150 Available from: https://www.part-box.com/pfc-7767-z-rated-brake-pad-set-7767-10?search=pfc 7767&description=true Project Mu: Part No: F1076 Compounds Available: Type PS, HC-CS, HC+, R777, R999 Approx Price: £150 Available from: https://www.rhdjapan.com/search/?q=F1076 Winmax: Part No: WMP814-17 Compounds Available: W3, W4, W5, W6.5, WN3 Approx Price: £235 Available from: https://www.kamracing.co.uk/manufacturers/winmax-brakes/ap-racing-calipers-winmax/ap-racing-5200-caliper-cp3215-d50-pads-winmax-brake-pads.html Hope that helps. p.s. Go for Red calipers, why buy a big brake kit if not to show it off?

You can get the gaskets from: Manifold to Engine - Gasket with fitting kit: https://www.importcarparts.co.uk/parts-info?id=12009 Manifold to Engine - Just gasket: https://www.importcarparts.co.uk/parts-info?id=12008 Manifold to overpipe / Overpipe to 2nd cat - Gasket: https://www.importcarparts.co.uk/parts-info?id=12010 No, you don't need to. You should only think about it if you track the car alot, but then I'd look at getting the manifold ceramic coated or have thermomet applied.

Help on identifying the GT86 Aero Ultraleggera's
will300 replied to shellcool's topic in GT86/BRZ General Chat
Offset in simple terms is how far the wheel sits in the arch. A lower offset (+35) will sit out further than a higher offset (+46). Using this calculator you can adjust the wheel dimensions to see how it fits on the car. https://www.ft86motorsports.com/wheelitfit/ With reguards to the above photo, I just clicked on the first colour I saw. Although doing a quick search if not sure if they do the Ultraleggera with a +35 offset in Matt Graphite. You'd have to speak to DemonTweeks directly.- 21 replies

Welcome to the club @Mani I'd firstly start by deciding what route you want to take the car before buying modifications, there isn't really much point buying wheels / suspension for a stock bodied car if you plan to go wide body as the fitment you'd want will be different. With regards to track use, the stock car is perfectly acceptable. The only mods I'd suggest initally are a set of good tyres and brake pads.

Help on identifying the GT86 Aero Ultraleggera's
will300 replied to shellcool's topic in GT86/BRZ General Chat
The first model year of the Aero (might be the 1st and 2nd year cars) came with the OZ wheels, which was a limited OEM run. After this first (or second) year Toyota swapped the Aero wheels to a generic 86 wheel. They weren't available to buy though distributors which is why you can't find any with a ET46 offset. If your looking to buy a brand new set, these are the wheel specs I'd go with:- 21 replies

@Faizaan it's usually best to email or call Amber and mention you are from the 86 Drivers club. email: sales@amber-performance.co.uk tel: 01582 664 735
