As per others the 86 is not steer by wire.

I find the difference negligible between this and a good hydraulic rack like in the NC Miata. It is worlds better than most hydraulic steering racks on the road today.

Leather cleaner, I've got a bottle of leatherique and my car is in desperate need of re-application.

Leather shouldn't be slippery and shiny, that's dirt and skin oil sitting on top of the material that needs to be cleaned off.
