Sort of but that isn't fog lights. They are helogen DRL.

VADER 11-03-2012 08:36 PM

No I mean right under the turn signals.. those are fog lights. the blue light in the other pic next to the projectors are the DRLs

Looks good man! Personally, I'm not a fan of the 86 badge on the rear. Feel like it's too small to be there. But each to their own.

Yes those are helogen DRL for our market. They are not fog lights on our GT spec, only on our GTS spec (which has HID and LED DRL like JDM headlights).

Correct. For Australian markets, the base 86 model, those lights are the DRLs. This as confuse a lot of people.

Looks great, they look like 9.5+38 all round? What coil overs are you running?

Correct, running 245/35/18s all round and they fit perfect. Coilovers are BC RAs.

Paragon 11-04-2012 08:28 AM

how do the BC coilovers feel to you compared to stock? Im still tossing up btw the BC and KW V3s so great to get some local feedback.What spring rates did you go with? Cheers.

Suffa 11-04-2012 09:41 AM

I want those laser headlights lol

jet86 11-04-2012 03:32 PM

BCs are probably my favourite coilover. I had the budget to buy teins and I still got BC. I also run BCs on my RB2634 s13 drift car and my mx5. Have never had a problem with them. ATM their set at number 15 (medium). It is a little bit stiffer than stock but not by much. On their softest setting their softer than stock lol.
