Anyone in YVR area know this car? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

c8Face · 04-30-2016, 01:30 AM

I just picked up a very lightly used 2016 BRZ Sport-Tech (~2500kms) from a local Mazda dealer (prior owner apparently traded for a new MX-5) that included a number of modifications. I'm trying to track down the build history to find out exactly what has been done to to it (and what shop worked on it). So far I have identified:

1. AP Racing BBK front/rear
2. Ohlins coilovers
3. Eibach anti-roll kit
3. Final drive ratio change (not sure part/brand)
4. 18 inch rims (still trying to figure out model/brand)
5. Yokohama ADVAN Neova AD08 R 265/35/18 all around (I have swapped out to all season Michelin's and am selling the Yokos)
6. WeatherTech mats in front/rear/trunk

Thanks.

That's a nice package that came with the twin, mind disclosing how much you paid?

Wow good deal....

Thanks. My only concern is maintenance with the BBK and the cost of the pads/rotors. I'm trying to get in touch with the original owner (through the dealership where I bought the car) to find out exactly what has been done. It will make getting replacement parts much easier...

I don't know about Vancouver, but here in Ontario we can order a Used Vehicle Information Package at a service center and it will list all previous owners.

Maybe you guys have something of that equivalence if all else fails.

Thanks! I've only had the car for 3 days and this forum has been a ton of help.

It's a private group, so you'll need to join it first to read anything.

You're going to have a hard time finding information for anything YVR related away from facebook. The Vancouver guys avoid forums so hard, their own dedicated website/forum got shut down.

Here's the link to the facebook group

I've never seen before at any of the meets.

@c8Face Someone in the facebook group says he knows the previous owner.
