What you HATE the most on your FR-S/BRZ/GT86/FT86?

No torque. Even with all the superchargers and turbos out there. Miss my V8. The rumble, miss the rumble..

Might have to change plans and swap to LSx instead of messing with the boxer.

Was thinking about doing it. It shouldn't affect the warranty at all right?

Only if they can prove it caused any malfunction. Those fluids are not factory spec'd weight.

Spontaneous decision. We all make 'em. I blame it on the hype.

I hate how sunken in the factory wheels are, even though our FT86's have big butts and I cannot lie.

I fixed this.
If you look inside the female snap there is a small bronze circle in the center, this is a press point and it has a little play.
All you need is a TINY amount of rubber epoxy here and it is silent forever.

The panel between your windshield and windows on driver side and passenger.
