Last track day - Sunday 17th October 2013 at Manfeild.

Went backwards into a tyre wall after taking a turn too wide but only got a couple of rubber scuff marks that didn't buff out. When it went bang I thought the whole back right corner may have been stoved in and drove cautiously back to the pits - sooo lucky!

Installed some new TRD goodies today

TRD carbon fender fins
TRD rear window stabiliser/surround
TRD interior boot set (gear lever leather & surround and handbrake leather)
TRD seatbelt pads (genuine , had fake ones before)

Wasn't sure about the fender fins but not too over-the-top, especially on the dark grey. Love the rear window surround - looks awesome.

TRD momo steering wheel still on its way - stuck at customs

The rear garnish window is fantastic. You won't be disappointed - worth the wait. It's one of my favourite parts.

Niice man... Making me jealous :P

Where did you get the TRD kit? Or maybe us Aussies don't get our 86's with it as optional on GTS

Furthermore:
Our optional bodykit for the GTS is the 'Aero'... (Might actually get it ... needs a better wing though)

We also have the factory aero kit as an option but have a TRD model with the TRD kit too.

Our NZ TRD supplier, North Shore Toyota, ships to Oz. Talk to Nick the parts manager there http://www.nst.co.nz/contact-our-tea...ab=subtab_2100

Happy new year to you too! Hope to get some more of your cool t-shirt designs this year.

Only two minor things being the TRD steering wheel and to match the TRD carbon dash kit I got a matt carbon fibre overlay for the silver part on the wheel. Unfortunately the TRD carbon interior kit leaves that part out so had to get a non-TRD overlay off ebay.

My monster mats, android head unit and this carbon part I think are my only non-TRD pieces - oh, and my "TRD" aluminium foot plate that you can see in this photo too.

No the Nur spec wing is not TRD so doesn't fit my car build.

The Nur spec wing is a Toyota part (not TRD) that we get here if we order the factory aero kit.

The actual aero kit specs are:
GT86 AERO KIT - Front bumper under spoiler and spats, side spoilers, rear bumper under spoiler and spats and large boot mounted rear spoiler with black centre.

I think it is around NZ$1,800 and must be ordered with the car as it comes built from the factory in Japan. I was originally thinking of going with the aero kit and then swapping out the wing for the TRS boot lip. But, in the end I splashed out on the more expensive TRD model. Remember, here in NZ we are spoilt for choice when it comes to the 86. We have the following models:

RC86 - stripped out to modify yourself (no air con, radio etc and only 16" wheels and carolla like seats)
86 - as per RC86 but cloth seats shaped like your cars, 16" wheels, air con, stereo
GT86 - as per 86 but fake leather seats, 17" wheels, bigger brakes, heated seats, climate air con, ush button start, HID etc
TRD86 - as per GT86 but brembo TRD BBK, 18" TRD wheels, TRD full body kit, TRD start button, TRD oil filter etc
TR86 - full spec race car including roll cage, tune, changed oil sump, oil cooler, slicks, suspension changes etc

Yep, we have five models from stripped out to full race car with their own race series.

For the 86 and GT86 there was the option of the "aero kit" as an optional extra. They made the wing available as a separate part later as some people were requesting it.

If you go with the aero from the factory here in New Zealand then you can't get the TRD model here as the side skirts, spoiler and trimming are different. They wheels, brakes etc are also different in the aero spec as they are the "normal" 86 parts not TRD. So, the TRD model and the aero kit option are mutually exclusive.

Here's the wing showing Toyota part not TRD
