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

[PHLonomenal]

That it doesn't have AT LEAST 250 horsepower stock. Still liveable however without it.

The thought of injector seals going sitting in the back of my mind when I'm tracking the car.

Lol! Oh, so I'm not the only one? "Beemer girl" thought I wanted to race because my horrible oem Michelins screamed all the way through the freeway offramp! Her car had to have at least 350hp! It was comical to watch her burn fuel at two traffic lights. I would have loved to have taken her down in some curves.

It's still the tires, I hate!

For me it's the seats. I've had the car over two years and I'm just not comfortable driving this car. I'll give it a few more months before I decide to swap them out..

The stock seats lasted 18 months before I swapped them. There just isn't any thigh support for me with the stock seats. Picked up some Recaro Sportsters and now I can road trip without issue.

Personally I've decided I will always track the car with either:

1) 100 octane + OEM flash (with revised transient ignition retard table)

or

2) 93 octane + aftermarket tune + oil cooler + HFC/cat delete header

If after all that, I still lose an injector seal, then so be it, but I'm not going to let it bother me until it happens.

Not sure I understand how the AT solves this problem. I have the AT Monogram, and when I hit the button to turn the engine off, everything goes off. I can take my foot off the brake and hit the button again to turn the electronics back on, but there is a delay while the stereo comes back on.

This doesn't bother me much, as I rarely want the radio on after I am ready to turn the car off, but there have been a couple times when I was listening to a funny bit on a morning radio show and would have preferred to finish listening without using gas, but didn't want to miss some of the show to hit the button again.

Make sure your foot is on the brake.

Leave the shifter on any setting but park and turn the car off.

Put the car in park.

Enjoy your tunes uninterrupted.

This used to bug me too. Now I know what to do.
Cannot stress strongly enough: Do not forget to put the gear shifter back to PARK after turning the engine off.
Thanks again for the tip.

If you forget to put your car in park, you're on your own.
