"Luv2Rev" 2020 86 TRD OEM+ build

I picked up a 2020 Halo 86 6MT with TRD handling package in mid-December after waiting for over 2 months.

I've been sitting on a pair of "LUV2REV" plates from 1987, and had them registered to the 86. I was going to put the plates on an AE86, but my AE86 came with 1980s California sunset plates, so I left the AE86 plates alone.

I've already installed OEM all-weather floor mats and Helix clear side markers.

Plan is to do an OEM+ build with TRD parts:

Lowering springs (arrived)
Sway bars (on order)
18-inch wheels (arrived)
JDM strut bar (in transit)
JDM shift knob (in transit)

Maybe:
17-in forged wheels (CS autox build?)
TRD rear lip spoiler (DSP autox build?)

The night I picked up the car.

nice car. Wish your "Luv2Rev" plate was registered in other states so I can register it in California. LOL.

Ha ha. Definitely got lucky with these plates.

I also have the MTEC clutch pedal spring waiting to be installed.

Get the MTEC Transmission springs as well. Really helps with shifter feel.

Damn, been a while since I've updated this. I've had the car a year now, and have some things added.

Installed a TRD replica rear spoiler. Yeah, i know. I couldn't stand the bare trunk. I like how it flows. Color is off, but it'll do for now.

I don't like wheels with too many spokes, plus I couldn't reach the calipers to clean them. So I got a square set of the TRD wheels. 18 x 7.5 +35 offset. Not a fan of black wheels, so these will get refinished in the future.
