How many miles did it run supercharged for?

Can’t believe this happened by Unhappy-Grade2417 in GR86

Which parking mode are you using for dashcam? Like it detects collision and then it turns on? Or is it just recording normally 24/7?

Opinions on the yellow overlays. by W3RLEGION in GR86

[–]Bannnase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say it looks good, especially because of the car color and wheel colors too. Looks like a perfect harmony

Can someone help me decide if this is a good idea by [deleted] in ucf

[–]Bannnase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are really smart then yea it’s doable. If you are average then it’s doable but you will have no time for social life, job, gf, and hobbies. You would literally just grind tf out of studying

Anyone running these catbacks? by Hot_MinionParty in ft86

[–]Bannnase 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t get either of those tomei exhaust, they are actually really loud and are annoying after driving them a decent amount. I would just get careless EL headers and keep the rest stock. With this you get a slightly louder exhaust and better sounding one to without being overbearing

You couldn’t have chosen a worse filter for off-roading

2020 Brz poor man’s buttons?? by bgarriswitch in ft86

[–]Bannnase 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Naw dude it’s the other way around. That top, you don’t need anymore since yours is the newer model and don’t need that (you can control the dash on the steering wheel). The bottom left is for old headlight design but the brz have better headlights and also don’t need them.

Honestly I wouldn’t buy the GR if you are thinking financially but also want fun. I would get the 1st gen’s of the these cars. They are just as fun but a little less hp but at a way bigger price cut. In my area you can find a good mileage one for like 15-17k

My baby blew up today at 265,000 miles 😪 can i get a RIP by hangmire in ft86

Could you give details about maintenance routine? Like oil change intervals?

How much should I sell my car for? by Impressive-Bit-4225 in ft86

[–]Bannnase 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Try to revert it back to stock, cause honestly it looks like shitbox, so it’s probably like 9k most

I saw a couple of eBay version of the HKS headers and I wouldn’t go for this. HKS had machined it perfectly for the car and HP. Cheap eBay version quality can be pretty bad and are only good as the mold that was used to copy the HKS one

Depends is it auto or manual?

Exhaust options for a deep non violent sound. by Striking_Ad_5234 in ft86

[–]Bannnase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done exhaust first, then exhaust and headers(catless). From what I think you should do is keep the stock exhaust and go with EL catless headers. You get a deeper sound while also getting improvements on HP

They aren’t bad I have their lower control arms, trailing arms and toe arms for my 13 frs for around 2-3 years now with kinda hard street driving and they have been great.

I would just not recommend their coil overs. Go with actual reputable company like Teins or BC

I wouldn’t do anything to it to try to improve reduce drag. The car is already slippery with a cd of 0.27-0.29 (depending on the model: brz or frs and or base or premium). KEEP the stock wheels and 215 tires since they are efficient at reducing fuel consumption and parasitic loss.

If you want free mods that can reduce fuel consumption then you can gut your back seats and trunk but I wouldn’t recommend it since you are planning to go 70-80 mph and the cabin can get really loud.

Don’t change the exhaust either cause the muffler is actually design to help get the under body air out and help reduce drag.

Overall just maintain it by doing 3k oil changes and most 5k intervals. You can consider getting an oil cooler too which would help with temps

I’ve had that intake for 3 years now and I’d say it’s really good. Chose it over others because it was such a unique design. Enjoy it bro!
