FT86 looking to be in Australia 2012

[ecko]

Wonder if TRD parts keep original warranty?

I can assure everyone there will be a bit more than a small amount of aussie development. I know of 3 shops in Sydney that will have cars within the next month or so, with a huge player on the engine performance side of things, will re open before the end of the year, to again dominate from a hp perspective ( yeah yeah i know BALANCE)

One thing to remember guys Aussie shops dominated the WRX scene for near on a decade. This car is a subaru underneath it all, a marque that is by far the most modiied car on aussie roads. Australia will be at the forefront of development within the next yr or two.

maybe if bought from, fitted by and serviced by a toyota dealer - so I would say not going to happen

So just had a quick look at the BRZ service manual....

Lets just say changing spark plugs will be annoying

[Matt]

an engine out might be easier? There is a few cars like that

[Gunner]

Anyway you can post the procedure up tom?

Why are so many people looking too aftermarket ecus? Its an open ecu, can be flashed tuned, unless you have made some radical changes, I wouldnt recomend straying from the factory unit. Gettig the D4S to run smoothly isnt going to be an easy feat with an aftermarket ecu. And I think we will see alot of blown engine warranty claims too lol the amount of "pro" tuners who struggle with basic set ups are going to pop a few I reckon.

Have to say i was a little upset and the GF was pissed off.

Both looking at buying FT86s both now not due to no turbo model did not help the guy at Brighton toyota kept pointing at the guard vent and saying toyota made this so it was easy to turbo.

how ever he did say TRD was looking at a turbo/supercharger version so now just got to wait and see. but disappointed

Well, not trying to be rude but it's been common knowledge there wasn't going to be a turbo model for quite some time. Also the trd car won't come to Australia and also isn't turbo.

I hope you at least had a drive before writing it off though...

[Nikkojoe]

If someone can host the file I can email it. Otherwise you can get it from ft86club if you look around. Let's just say its more than one page

And yes the engine needs to come out somewhat, but hey I guess plugs are long life so it doesn't need to be done that often.
