Car Mods Australia
 

Hi guys,

Just a heads up, if you need anything for your Toyota 86 / BRZ, I would definitely suggest you get into contact with Daniel from Car Mods Australia. They are based in QLD (I am in SA).

I have just purchased an exhaust from him, and price and service was fantastic! I have been looking at other parts as well, and they are very cheap compared to a lot of other vendors and suppliers (even in the US!).

I have no affiliation with this business, I am just trying to put in a good word for the company because they are a cut above the rest!

Did you get the Perrin? Have you installed it?

Hey mate, yeah got the header back (unresonated). Haven't installed yet... car isn't here for a couple of weeks. What do you have?

Zero ! Car delivery in Feb, waiting to see what XForce come out with, heard a proper cat back vid of the Perrin the other day & I was impressed with the sound, as opposed to previous ordinary clips posted. I have bought stuff from Dan aswell, he VERY helpful & doesn't muck round.

i think the perrin cat back clip also has their front pipe too?

I was so close to picking up a Milltek system from Ian @ Rennenhaus. Ridiculously cheap quote... cheaper than Perrin. It sounded better than the Perrin too, but they haven't released a catted front pipe (which is what I wanted). Perrin already had it.

I ordered my car in July and is being delivered in 2 weeks. When did you order yours? (GTS 6sp manual - Galaxy Blue Silicia)

Thier coilovers are overpriced badly lol

U lucky bugger ! I also ordered mid July, although I stated on the contract a preference for 2013 build if it was going to be late this year. I guess the dealer has done me a favour? I'm OK with it.

Here's the thread with a good sounding link to the Perrin cat-back resonated & unres. I prefer the resonated, sound fine to me. :thumbsup:

I use to work for Toyota, and trust me, December build or January build really makes no difference my friend. All comes down to condition and kms :P

I can also vouch for Car Mods AU. Got a few Perrin goodies from them (shorty, crank pulley, tranny bushing) and it was here basically the next day...

Please let us know how the fitting goes for the Perrin headerback (you might be one of the first to have one down under??)

I have been keen to find out about the Perrin transmission bush? What are your thoughts on it? Any noticable difference?

Haven't got my car yet :P I'll let you know some time early next year haha.

Will you be fitting yours as soon as the car arrives? waiting on results :thumbup:

Dude, I am driving it straight to get it fitted before I get home. I can't stand the DROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE E!!!

Mine is over pipe, front pipe (catted) and non res. catback.

Also, I heard the tranny bush can put stress on the engine because of its rigidity... thoughts?

bought it , not installed yet..i am getting my car sometimes this month. i will let you all know how it feels.

I second that, Daniel is very helpful and informative.

Hey Hawk, what prompted you to buy it?

I'm still waiting for mine to be shipped to me.. damn :(

I ordered my exhaust 3 days ago and will be here in a week :)

According to Daniel, they should be receiving the shipment today and hopefully I receive a delivery notice from them.. already had perrins catted front pipe and overpipe installed, left the catback to complete the set.

The description of it...I mean the purpose of it. The tighter the car, more power will be sent to the wheels. Is not like you are gaining any more power, but you will haved slightly more at the wheels from the same engine under hard acceleration.

Do you think you would gain less vibration at the gear stick?

Also, I heard this can put the engine under stress too... ?

Well, I am wating to see if I can get some engine mounts as well. you need to stiffen both, otherwise you're creating a hard point at the transmission while the engine remains soft which might cause stress.

Here is a link explaining the combination of Perrin part with the Whiteline. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...e+transmission

I have the whiteline part as well that i am thinking to modify to accomodate the Perrin transmission mount.

Whiteline stuff:

I heard the Cusco mount was better than the Whiteline (and twice the price mind you lol).

I've been chatting away with Dan about the cars for a while as well .. we both have brzs going through very similar builds to start with, he is going all out tho! A forged crawford bottom end next year. :eyebulge:

Hanging for my Perrin exhaust, pulley and shorty antenna this week, err and some other misc stuff lol.
