Oh yeah! I forgot to mention something like that too but I actually thought that was actually normal. Well this is also my first stick shift car that i've had but yeah I really dislike how high the clutching catch point is.

Here's how to just cap the tube off. Total cost, free if you use the outlet cover in the glovebox. $0.79 otherwise.

Here's how to remove everything entirely. Page 3 has cap sizes you need to purchase to make it work for cheap. Total cost, about $6.

Hoping for y'all to search the DIY forum for such. It also leads to finding other gems you might like.

Nah, unless it's a metallic tint but those are pretty much non existent now for the exact reason that they interfere with radio signal.

So even if his windows were tinted it likely wouldn't matter because it's not the "right" material.

Tired of the chirp, had the car for 10 days and it's on and off but very irritating. Can I get a real answer on the problem?

The euro-spec car was about $30.000~$40.000 when the GT86 was released.

The FRS was/is way cheaper.

Most cars with DI bury the HPFP under the intake manifold with insulation
Covering it. The pump is driven off the camshaft and due to the boxer configuration, placement is located at the head which is more open in the engine bay corner. That and lack of insulation due to weight saving considerations makes for a noisy pump..
Nothing to be concerned about... Just some more feedback from the engine bay.. An aftermarket exhaust will enhance the driving experience and drown out some of the cricket noise..

2nd gear isnt smooth first thing in the morning. The traction control is still on even when you turn it completely off (hold the button for 3 seconds). Centre console arm rest is an option in usa only and stupid expensive. Nav is extra cost. 2 piston calipers up front (its 2014 not 1982). Engine is too rumbly and the exhaust is too quiet. Stock stereo is clear but isnt loud enough. Lack of factory subwoofer.

What Europe prices their cars is often not a direct relation to what cars are priced over in North America. The VW Golf GTI for instance, its a $25,000 car in the US...over in the UK its a £26,130 car...convert that to USD and its roughly a $43,000 car. VW Germany the GTI is 28.675,00€, convert that to USD its still about $39,000.

Try to find ethanol free gas if you can. My state doesnt have it, but others do.
