Great minds think alike!

I also want a pair but my gf likes how the stock seat feels more than the TRD bucket, especially since it's my daily. I'm hoping to get another one down the road as well, probably when this becomes a garage queen.

Wanted to get this out just before the year ends.
In a few weeks, it will be 8 years of ownership of this amazing car
Looking forward to many more!

Got plenty of new parts since the last update:
- Voltex Type 1S Wing (1480mm)
- TRD Duracon Shift Knob (White)
- TRD Fender Fins (Carbon Fiber) BNIB
- TRD Fender Fins (Carbon Fiber) Used
- GRMN 86 Dash (RHD)
- MTEC Track Shift Knob (Red)
- Gruppe-S Catless UEL

Voltex Type 1S Wing (1480mm)
This was something I’ve been looking at getting later down the road but didn't expect to get it anytime soon.
An amazing deal popped up that I’d be crazy to pass up.
I picked it up within a few days, which I drove 12+ hours and back the same day.
Got it second hand but is in great condition.
I have yet to take this car to the track but definitely can feel a difference in the canyons.








TRD Duracon Shift Knob (White)
Another rare part to add to the collection.
Feels great and was installed with no issues. Gotta love that OEM fitment.






TRD Fender Fins (Carbon Fiber) x2
I didn’t think I wanted to get these since they are a bit pricey but ever since
I got the carbon fiber wing, I wanted some other carbon bits to match.
The first set I got was from another member and they are BNIB.
Since these are already rare, it’s even more difficult to find a brand new pair.
I’ve decided to keep these untouched and fine another set but used.




GRMN86 Dash (1 of 100)
As some of you may know, the GRMN86 is a very limited model in Japan (IIRC only 100 cars were made).
I was able to be swoop this awesome piece. Since this is a RHD part, I would keep it as a display piece.




MTEC Track Shift Knob (Red)
Got this as a Christmas gift from my gf.
I mentioned to her about getting another shift knob to add to the collection.
Something a bit different than the others I have.
It’s very nice to the touch and feels great with spirited driving.




Gruppe-S Catless UEL Header
Been wanting to change up the exhaust set up for a while.
Switched out my FT86SF Catted UEL and JDL FP/OP to stock OP and FP, along with the catless UEL.
It’s about the same volume level but at a little bit lower tone.
Also switched my tune from the Catted Stage 2 to off-the-shelf Stage 2, since OFT advised to do so.

*No picture needed since we all know what catless headers look like.
They're shiny and it makes the engine bay a bit prettier.*

Finally got around to installing the TRD Fender Fins.
Install wasn't too bad; Just needed a heat gun, floss, and a lot of 3M tape.
Glad to add a little more carbon to the car.

The TRD CF aero fins are probably one of the most stunning and gorgeous aftermarket pieces ever made for these cars.

I had a pair on my first twin and I miss them badly!

I'm getting back into an FR-S soon! Hope to see you around the bay area. Do you ever come out to any meets?

Welcome back to the 86 community!
Unfortunately prices for these in carbon have been going up.

I try to attend morning 86 meets whenever they come up. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Had a great time meeting you and talking cars on Sunday.

Thanks so much for answering my questions and showing me all the cool stuff on your car! Really clean build!

It was very nice meeting you and I'm glad that I answered your questions.

Feel free to reach out any time, I'm always happy to talk for hours about our cars

P.S. Really glad to have seen your car. Seen it around the forums but seeing it in person was phenomenal.

Will do! Love talking cars as well. My steering wheel just started officially flaking today, so depending on how bad it gets I may be looking for an aftermarket wheel. Would prefer something OEM-ish like the TRD/Momo one you have. The diameter of that one is a little bit thicker than stock, right?

Thank you for the kind words about my car, appreciate it!

It still kinda feels like Laz's car, to be honest! But the more I do to it and the more miles I log is helping. I think I'm going to order this for it soon, and maybe an alcantara gauge hood as well: https://www.ftspeed.com/part/su003-0...ered-logo-ft86

Can't go wrong with the TRD wheel since it's OEM+. The diameter is a bit beefy-er, especially around the 9 & 3 areas. I do have one for sale if you're interested.

That dash panel is really nice. I believe it's made with the same suede material as my TRD dash. Super easy install and makes a great difference for the interior.

Parts recently installed:
- OEM Frameless Mirror (SU003-07866)
- TRD Fuel Cap (MS360-00001)
- TRD Emblem (B Type,Color) (MS010-00014)

OEM Frameless Mirror
I noticed that the original mirror was starting to de-laminate when I was doing a full interior clean.
Decided it was time to finally switch to the frameless mirror for a more premium look.
Easy install with no tools needed.




TRD Fuel Cap & TRD Emblem (Type B,Color)
Since I ordered the frameless mirror from overseas, might as well add a couple more goodies to the order.
For the TRD fuel cap, because why not?
For the TRD emblem, I always thought it would look really nice.

[KMA KiCKz]

Parts recently installed:
- 14R Engine Cover
- TRD Driving Gloves

14R Engine Cover
OH MAH GAWD
The search is over and sooo happy to have this 14R60 cover.
Edit: These were on the 14R and 14R60; unsure on total made.
Was able to get this from a former 86 owner.









TRD Driving Gloves
Been thinking of getting some driving gloves but can't seem to find some that I really like.
Saw these and knew I had to get themem.
Will use these mainly for the summer or whenever my hands get a bit sweaty.
Had a few hand slips and "Oh shi-" moments.
P.S. Peep the only skyline I can afford

Very nice TRD engine cover!

Have you considered the Perrin silicone inlet tube (and by association, sound generator delete)?

Thanks!

I haven't but it does make the engine bay look a bit cleaner. If anything, I might consider getting the TRD intake but I'm pretty content with the stock one for ease of maintenance.

Have you considered getting the Perrin inlet tube as well?
