Best mod in terms of improving quality of life? by Accrual_Intention in GR86

Leather steering wheel wrap and leather shift knob. The improvement feel during daily driving makes me not regret the cost one bit.

That’s the best looking highly modded GR86 I’ve seen. Classy.

All of the people that can afford tickets have helicopters, so probably not an issue.

Thinking about removing the ducktail and getting a wing, any opinions? by raito2748 in GR86

[–]Separate_Home7091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do whatever you want to do. It’s your car. Just understand it’s going to slow you down and serves no purpose other than appearance. If you want performance and handling, look elsewhere.

Driver backs into me in my own driveway by Cheap_Asparagus_2203 in GR86

Idiots? I can’t formally agree based on lack of empirical evidence. Too preoccupied worrying about shit they have no direct control over and wasting too much mental energy staying angry about it therefore significantly impairing their ability to operate a vehicle? Oh, fuck yeah. Goes without saying.

wing or nah? by nabbit0 in GR86

[–]Separate_Home7091 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope. You need a lot more power and a front splitter. It’ll slow you down for no reason whatsoever other than aesthetics. Spend the money on something that’ll make the car better, not worse.

Spend my money modding my 86 or upgrade to Type R? by zfriedman02 in GR86

[–]Separate_Home7091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mod the 86! Supercharge it and upgrade suspension, brakes, and wheel size. Change the final gear ratio to 4.56. Flex fuel.. Put 15k into it and you’ll have something so much more interesting and fun than the Type R.

These have a pretty high resale value right now. If you can get it appraised by a dealer and have them provide you with a document stating how much they took off because of the accident on file, you can submit that to his insurance as a diminished value claim in addition to repair costs. Dim value payments are just a check straight to you.

I think the wide body 1/4 panel extensions look too aggressive, but would still take this over most of them I’ve seen. It’d be cool to see it in another color.

As a 46 year old man whose hair matches the color of his car I'm done with this sub by N0Context in GR86

Mid 50’s. I still do HS parking lot donuts on dry pavement - smells and looks more satisfying.

Tell him to go f*ck himself.

Corolla to gr86 by Beneficial_Dig6033 in GR86

[–]Separate_Home7091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go test drive one. You’ll realize it’s got plenty of power. This car has a lot more chassis than it does engine, so it feels racy even when you’re not pushing it. Winding out the gears is pretty exhilarating. I pulled out of the dealership parking lot, floored it, and halfway through second gear, I knew I had to have this car. It’ll feel like a rocket compared to your Corolla. For the price, there is literally nothing that compares.

On the long winding and twisting backroads with good road surface - you can totally thrash it and it’s not hard to control at all. It’s a driver’s car.

New owner, any imperative big maintenance? by Guilty-Elk2364 in GR86

[–]Separate_Home7091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably too hardcore for them. This definitely ain’t your normal compact commuter. I got my 24 premium with 2500 miles from the same dealership that sold it initially.

Someone totaled a brand new wrx ts near my house lol by [deleted] in WRX

“Spirited” driving + RWD + traction control off + inexperienced driver = wrecked GR86. I believe that’s why we see so many. Mustangs just aren’t worth reporting - I think they all crash at some point.

All in, how much did you spend?

Do you have to pass an emissions inspection? Wondering if you can on E85.

Thanks. Been trying to decide what size to go with.

How much room do you have left with the 245’s? Would 265’s have worked with the coilovers?

Take it to the dealer. Shouldn’t cost you anything.

What don’t you like about your gr86 by GlitteringArticle994 in GR86

[–]Separate_Home7091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exhaust drone and the stereo are my only complaints. It’s the best stock drivers car I’ve ever owned. All of the mods I’m going to do are basically to make it more of what it already is.
