You probably mentioned this somewhere but I'm lazy to dig through all the pages lol...

How are the trd coilovers performing on the track? Street? What are your dampening settings? How much lower are you from stock? Were they already at a recommended height out the box? What top mounts did you use?

This project never ceases to amaze me. Still waiting to learn more about that engine though...

14R60 front end(bumper+wider fenders) would really suit you 86. And since you're all about the weight...What about the new 4/2-pot brakes as seen in the latest Griffon evolution(as well as the 14R and 14R60) ? Just saying...

It'd be awesome if you got a youtube reviewer to drive the car to see their impression after all the mods maybe Matt Farah or even TJ Hunt?

Unfortunately 14R parts are not for sale . And I would know because we actually went through Toyota and TRD Japan to petition getting some items from the car for a build here in the US and in the end it got shut down (we got really far though).

Most of the mechanical parts(like the new brakes) are available now...But some fancy stuff like the oil cooler or the aero parts aren't, and seems like never will. Real shame... but i guess they want to keep people from building "replicas".

Yeah we were trying to get the front and rear bumpers and the gt wing. Got 6 of 7 approvals but unfortunately it was the last one that said no

Pardon if you have answered in the previous 64 pages. But where might one acquire the seats and the TRD gauges?
