Got at 102k miles and the odometer is at 126k now. Didn't rack up many miles despite being a daily. But this car has been the most solid out of the three I've owned. Never left me stranded and has never had anything fail or break. A little rough on the edges (largely due to it being driven by a teenager), but I know I can rely on it. I'm also quite happy with where it sits mod-wise

Hello everyone, I picked up a 13’ 10 series this past weekend at a pretty sweet price. Catch is, it has hail damage SO bad that it was totaled out because of it (photos genuinely do not show how bad it is lol). Being only 2500 of these things, and this one’s still mechanically solid with low miles, I’m motivated to slowly bring it back while I enjoy it.
Is there any way to source body parts with this paint code? And if not, does anyone know what shade of silver is close to the 10 series paint? Eventually I’ll probably get it all paint matched but there’s a LOT of body work it needs

Going through some old photos and found a few where the sun glare really hits the body lines. Too bad reddit will strip out the HDR from the image

I’m on tein flex z’s and I like the height in the rears but my fronts (which are maxed) I want a little lower. Is there any secret tips or anything for easy ways to get them lower?

I have a 2013 frs I’ve only had the tune for a day but so far all i noticed is the tq dip is way smoother and I don’t have crickets in my engine anymore for some reason. It’s noticeably more eager when u step in the gas but imo it’s not worth it for 600 and ur better off saving towards coil overs or smth. Also the v3 has to be the stupidest version of it because u need to be both connected to the same WiFi signal in order to do anything in the app and u can’t do anything without ur phone

I’m curious on how people feel about them. I always loved the Tom’s tails, so I definitely prefer the look.

They’re Lamin-X btw

Found a deal on a 200k km 2017 brz, looks clean and is cheap since its been sitting on the lot for a while. Its got full dealer history and seems highway driven. I see it as a good deal but don’t want to buy something that will die on me. How reliable are these engines? I do hear good reports from owners with lots of mileage but not sure…

Key fob seems to be fine, all doors are fully closed, nothing in my passenger seat. Even when I just press the button to turn on accessory mode it beeps 3 times very fast. Anyone experienced this before? Can’t find any info online about it. No aftermarket alarms.

Hi all,

I'm close to purchasing a first-gen Toyota 86 with a JDL turbo kit, running approximately 6–7 psi on 98 fuel.

My intention is to use it as a road-registered track car, initially doing occasional track days on 200tw tyres. Longer term, I may move to stickier tyres and more serious track use.

I've been doing quite a bit of reading about FA20 oil-pressure drops during sustained high-G cornering, and it's making me question the purchase.

I understand that oil-pressure drops have been documented, but what I'm struggling to establish is how frequently they actually result in engine failures, particularly on the original FA20 rather than the newer FA24.

I've also looked into baffled sumps, improved pickups and Accusump systems, but haven't found convincing evidence that any particular solution consistently eliminates the issue.

A few questions for those with actual track experience:

1. How common are oil-starvation-related engine failures on track-driven FA20s? Is this a widespread issue or something that gets disproportionate attention online?
2. Does adding a turbo at relatively low boost materially increase the risk, assuming oil temperatures and tuning are well controlled?
3. Have any of you logged oil pressure during track sessions? If so, what sort of pressure drops have you seen, and under what conditions?
4. Have you found any sump modifications, baffling or Accusump setups that demonstrably improve the situation?
5. Would this issue genuinely put you off buying and tracking an FA20-powered 86, or would you consider it a manageable risk?

I'm not expecting a track car to be completely risk-free, and I'm happy to spend money on sensible preventative modifications. I'm just trying to work out whether this is a fundamental weakness that should influence my choice of car.

I'd particularly appreciate experiences from people who've tracked these cars regularly, including those who've run them reliably for years.

Thanks for your help!

Love this thing SO MUCH 😭😭😭 It’s everything I’d ever dreamed owning a sports car to be and more! It’s fun, handles so well and never ceases to put a smile on my face. Today I took it out for an extended drive (after I got out of work early for it being my birthday). And I got a chance to take some awesome photos with the colors of Autumn as a backdrop 💛🍁💛🍁

Got mine today from the dealer.
My dream car for the last 10 years. Now it‘s mine! I‘m sooo happy! 😍 it‘s a 2020 Final Edition.

There is one on each side but flipping them does not seem to do anything also trunk lock switch does not work

I wanna see what my dam or iam whatever it’s called and other info about how the car is running with engine on my I don’t wanna fuck my ecu by doing smth it’s not supposed to with engine in and bricking my shit. Can I safely hit “start” with engine in and what should I press after to see that info

Weather recently changed here, and I checked all the PSI in all four tires and no issues. And the sensor light is not turning off. Is there a manual reset button or do I need a code reader to turn the light off?

Few days ago I had a cam position solenoid go on me so I replaced it, I also replaced a pcv hose running to my catch can at the same time. Now I’m getting random hesitations on throttle where it will bog then realize it is suppose to be scooting. I’ve cleaned the maf and the throttle body, did a throttle relearn cycle and reflashed my tune and it’s still happening.

i’ve done my research and I found out that people usually run 205/55/17’s, just wondering what other people are using for winter

Just wanna know if any one has recommendations on wheel spacers for the 18in trd wheels

Forgot to add the wheels are staggered
Front 18x7 +35
Rear 18x7.5 +35

I’ve been wanting to do this forever, still in the tuning process but holy is this car way cooler

I know this is a silly question but, have anyone bought something from 86Garage on FBmarketplace? I'm interested in buying something but as a non-US resident I have to find a way around with payment and obviously protecting myself and my money. I know this might not be the place to ask this kind of questions, but it's a store where they only sell 86/BRZ parts, so we might as well have found someone who sells parts for chip.

PD: Yes i know the basic: If it's too good to be true, it probably isn't

2013 frs auto, 80k miles. Car drives fine, no loss in power, no slipping gears, but at low speeds the car jerks the first two gears. Also, with the link below it shows a weird rumble when going into reverse. Can anyone pinpoint if it’s my transmission or engine mounts going bad or i just need to flush my ATF.
