hopefully get the 86 piston from nate89 for my keychain
I'm not investing too much hope that this won't be more than just aero however I am very very happy that toyota at least keeps giving us things to look forward to while we wait for the release of the AS1

Any chance that TRD would offer a ECU tune? Possibly when you purchase an intake/exhaust they flash your ECU and bump the hp a bit more.

for those expecting power gains I'm sure there won't be any.
this will be handling upgrades and brake upgrades which should be very welcome. from what I here the TuRD models never make it to the US anyways so I don't see a problem. |

Lol...... No matter what TRD ends up bringing out we get an opportunity to see what the likes of HKS, VERTEX, CUSCO, TOMEI, BLITZ, APEXI and all the rest who will be showing there expression of the 86/BRZ.....
It will be epic and we r all bitching about what TRD will or wont do.... We get to see all these aftermarket handling, power options and pick and choose before the Toyota/BRZ even hits the showroom floor...... EPIC................... I hope to go down the TRD road for the most part if they meet the standards with coilovers, brakes and a bodykit but id be kidding myself to think my 86 wont get a strong lick from HKS, DEFI, CUSCO, VERTEX and BRIDE..... |
