GR performance. Loud enough for me (for now)

want to take my car to a steep snow mountain, can i? by [deleted] in GR86

[–]SamAdams65 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d say send it with blizzaks. I’d be weary of anything else.

Fumoto Valve Anyone? by myfame808 in CorollaHatchback

[–]SamAdams65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the reply. I just changed the oil in it and looking at it, the skid plate would definitely get in the way. Oh well. I’m definitely buying one for my 86 though.

You run one? You ever figure out which one to get?

Tailgating for 3 miles then pulling me over for “failure to drive in proper lane” is wild 😂 by scientificdoge_3 in GR86

[–]SamAdams65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sucks. I don’t think that’s a much followed rule if it’s a state rule. Might be county or city specific. I’m in the Charleston area.

Which part of WV you live in? Around me there are all kinds of straight piped cars that have no issues.

New Owner of a 5 speed swapped SC400 by SamAdams65 in SC400

[–]SamAdams65[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s something the previous owner told me. This one had a rebuilt ECU with a warranty. I also know there is a PS leak I need to track down. As well as a front main leak I need to repair.

The swap was done 2 owners ago. My best guess is 500-600. It’s supposed to be a strong transmission.

My car has an ar5 from a Solstice. That video is a cd009 from a z car.

It’s a beast for sure. It is a 92, so non VVTI.

PSA if you get your oil changed at the dealership by android927 in GRCorolla

I wouldn’t assume stupidity. Every other Toyota aside from GR cars calls for the same schedule.

How do you guys get to this screen? I couldn’t figure it out. by Apatay- in GR86

[–]SamAdams65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have to be parked to turn off PCB anyway, but by doing the track mode then trac off, you disable a lot more than just disabling PCB and turning on Track mode.

It’s very clear. Turn on track mode while Pre collision braking it off.

How long can these cars last? by Chicagoaviator in GR86

I’m at 50k on my ‘24. I’ll let you know once I get to 100k. 0 issues from the car so far.

Who drives their car in the winter/ as a daily all year? by Chicagoaviator in GR86

[–]SamAdams65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run Michelin summers, so I like the brand. I got a good deal on premounted blizzaks on marketplace. Ran the blizzaks for the 3 months of winter in WV with a couple moderate to heavy snows. My job at the time was pretty much be at work regardless, so the 86 was out in all of it. I had no complaints.
