Sh*t 86 Owners Say - Page 12 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

- I just realized I can say whatever I want in this thread, as long as it qualifies as "sh*t", because I'm an 86 owner! How wonderful!

We can joke all we want but nothing beats reality:

"Hi, guys, right now i m selling my 2009 GTR cause i need money, and i plan to get a 2013 brz limited which is my first manual car, hopefully my Chinese drivers license is work for me to daily drive(only can drive manual car to pass test in my city)

i have a few question about the brz right now, so if u mod ur brz/frs already, plz help me:

1.is the OEM suspension good? im thinking change springs only, not the whole suspension system.
2.the first mod i want is brake, i saw AP racing have it and not too expensive, but how about rear brake, only pads are ok? or also change the brake system.
3.i also want to change wheels and tires, the OEM tires are beautiful but... 215/17, motorcycle width..17*9 and 255/40/17 is fine on track?
4. what turbo or SC do u guys use, i think when i change car from GTR to BRZ, i can feel this is like SUV...and 300-450 whp i think is fine, i dont want too much whp and get too much issues, cause i will daily drive it."

Recommend Cosworth supercharger and bagged suspension. So much needed money coming from GTR!

"Hey, I don't own the car yet, but I've read every single article ever written by all the Car mags & Jalopnik, saw the Top Gear episode, etc., so I'm basically a subject matter expert on the 86. I think I may go with a Mustang or Genesis, though, or a used Cayman."
