Wow the TRD kit went quite aggressive. I hope this is something that is offered in the USA this time around!
|
Looks too "organic". Too many complex lines and curves, IMO. My understanding is the changes are due to aero improvements, but sometimes function needs to take a backseat to style...
The Modellista kit is a much better alternative. http://toyota.jp/86/customize/modellista1/ |
IMO There isn't a lip on earth that can make the facelift 86 front look good. Best option would be to rip it off and replace it with the new BRZ front or a 12-15 GT86 front.
|
Looks good to me
|
Way too much going on in that kit.
I was never the biggest fan of the TRD kit originally, but this one is way too much for the eyes. Looks like something a ricer would put on. I think it's not so much the TRD kits fault but just the front bumpers fault. |

MCB seems interesting...
TRD kit looks terrible... but the 2017 86 looks terrible to begin with. |

IIRC one end of the bar has a pillowball and the rod is a spring loaded pull action (I played around with the rods when I first got them). Basically it ties the front subframe to the sides of the chassis, limits the movement of the subframe (can only be used in conjunction with the STI flexible strut tower bar and/or flexible v-bars, not sure about TRD). When cornering, the change in alignment for the front wheels are minimized. When I take a fast corner it feels like the car gets sucked down to the ground a bit (similar feeling when cornering a 4 wheel double wishbone old Honda). http://www.ft86club.com/forums/attac...1&d=1467689075 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/attac...1&d=1467689075 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/attac...1&d=1467689075 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/attac...1&d=1467689075 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/attac...1&d=1467689075 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/attac...1&d=1467689075 |

But I like the rear bumper though. Not so sure about the front lip though. |
MCB is basically this old product right?

Love the aero kit!
|
I'm not a huge fan of any of the new trd kit. everything looks like it has been stuck on with some 3m tape. the black trim pieces that follow the fender vent along the bottom of the windows looks the worst. and the fender extensions are not much better.
the only thing I do like is the look of the diffuser on the rear bumper |

Starting to look like a modern Nissan to me, which is not a good thing.
|
Are these louvers any different from the old style?

Some more wheels and some come with tires too. Also they have SARD and Tom's wheel offerings.
|
I want that modellista rear spoiler.
|
I hope this grows on me like the facelift did :/ The 2017 to me doesn't look as bad on the jp site's pics as it did a few months ago at that first press release.

Looks good, but I'll wait for SEMA and TAS.

FIFY Would you like ichi's old meaning or the right one? On a serious note, the wing is beautiful and if i could afford one (on top of the car) I could care less if it's rice. It is similar to the griffon one and is the one on the 14R. |
Ooo, I like dem wheels.
|
Is it me or is there a diffuser for the rear bumper now?
|
Looks like the diffuser is a detachable part of the TRD rear half-lip. Ive yet to see the new TRD kit in person but when i do, ill try to take detailed photos.
|
but damn that looks good.
|
do those front struts mount to the 12-15 frs?
|
The only thing i am interested is the GT wing.
