5axis body kit looks much better, imo.

TRD>5Axis>Modellista>Rocket Bunny>Rest for me.

I do like the wing on this one though. Just not for my car.

The original article in Japanese says "5月12日". "12" is the day. Not the year.

Thanks! So May 12 they are releasing the same thing as in 2012? (not doubting just clarifying)

This version was first released in 2012 so not late really. Maybe they had a bunch of parts leftover???

Nur-Spec body kit been available on the internet for sometime now.

I guess the OP didn't know about the availability.

Been seeing 86's with this hideous kit in Australia, ever since the car launched.

It's a great $5000 way to make the car heavier and uglier.

Agreed. The twin has a low-sleek styling that doesn't match a high-profile rear spoiler at all.

I'll clear few confusions.

They release Nur package 86 as limited edi (100 only) in Japan while back. Now, they've release NUr package as FT package an option for this car. & some of you are wondering, yes, it's same body kit as Australia GT-S kit (as we call it Nur kit).

Now, all I gotta say is, I want those 18" wheels... but they're not cheap & their offset isn't aggressive enough... Orz

Looks sexy, but I'd feel like a dork with a massive wing like that on an NA 86.

Apart from the wheels, this looks just like the "High Aero" spec that has been available in Europe for quite a while now, as the most expensive of the 3 option levels.
In Norway this costs ~1500 USD more than the "High" spec and ~4800 USD more than the "Base" spec.

I think they have it....but you had to buy them 1 by 1 from area 86?..........instead of a "package" that you click when you order the car? I mean the thing is in the TRD catalog in their dealer. O.o..

From the way they list on Toyota site, it looks more like a "trim" than a "package". The word "package" is just misleading. There are trims G, GT, and GT Limited now. They are adding "GT Aero Package" and "GT Aero Package FT" as 2 more trims from 5/12/2016. These GT aero package trims have more things added to GT trim. Not to GT Limited trim. So, even though these trims are more expensive than GT Limited trim, they won't have things like leather seats.

Edit: BTW, we call is "trim" in U.S. They call it "grade" in Japan. And they are listing these under "grade". Not under option.
