Was a great picture of an inline 4 off the Toyota site which was "The engine I have". Dealer slapped some paint mismatched TRD aero on a car and sold him a bill of goods. His only references were all the clickbaits that said the 2015s would be turbo/higher HP cars so he had one. I don't think any of his threads survived the resulting purge.

It was a shit show and now he is trying to say he was right all along and his engine was different than all the rest.


He even resurrected an 8 month old thread to dispute a comment and start the whole thing over again.

I am just waiting for the statement to be made here although he has disguised his intent very well so far.

Haha what? I was posting the differences between the old and new model and you're jumping all over me. I havent seen this info anywhere presented in simple pics so I thought you might find it interesting. If this is an exclusive forum just say so and there are other sites where a person can read interesting articles about the car. Its about the car not the op I think. Now its starting to get a bit tiring getting insulted and not retorting which is probably why you're doing it. Now listen here Tcoat the 86 is owned by people all over the world not to america and canada exclusively, your digs at my location etc are not related to the car, you have a problem where a person is located that's your problem as far as im concerned all I see are car enthusiasts. And the info you got wasnt about "a 2014" it was a 2016 model delivered in late 2015 not strange considering the 2017 are out now is it? You need to stop twisting facts around the way you see them. Thats your opinion, in late 2015 zik saw into the future and described to you an updated model in a lot of detail as well, for someone who didnt drive it he sure got a lot of it right, you know it, I know it. Distorting facts, or changing things to help your bruised ego dosent change anything, he was very accurate about the info he was giving you.... Thats all I have to say

Hey did you want the blueprints to the engine? Photo evidence... Rofl, what were u going to see on the photos? The same car? Or did you want unreleased material posted on a forum and how the hell would anyone have that. It was said verbally to him and he conveyed the message. True or not, you have to admit he got a lot of it right.... Anyway you have a great day and enjoy your 86

"His" Trd kit was changed and is now a matching color, that kit is JDM and is worth around 7,000$, I dont recall him mentioning any turbos. purge... Thats pretty dramatic. Ok round of camomile tea all around

No ego bruised here and the location references were simply the fact of where the claims were made and in no way a slam on that location nor the person. I stand corrected on the MY but it remains that was well over a year before the engine was even announced.


Oh and there are visible differences as per the pictures you yourself attached. Please send photo proof of "Zik's" car showing the updated parts and I would be very happy to write a formal apology.


I will not pursue this any further since as before there is no way to convince you otherwise.

Thats the car with the new kit. Now if it is the actual updated version that can be tested and as soon as that info is available you'll be the first person to see it. Enjoy your 86 and have a great day

Hell no! He's perpetuating the lie that he isn't the other guy that got banned with such fervor, he clearly isn't the type of person I want to have a discussion with.


The only other possibility is that he just isn't that other dude, but happens to know EVERY single fact about the guy (Zik was it?) and what he knew/said/thought/felt from a year ago. And that is equally as creepy.
