Toyota reveals "86 FACTORY TUNE 001" - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Doesn't cut it for me. I think 18 in wheels are somehow too big for this car. The wing, oh that wing, is just pathetic.

Looks great!! The spoiler fits nicely on this car with the bodykit IMHO.

(To those who think this spoiler is too big and pathetic; wait till you see the "BCL" one...

)

Maybe I'm missing the functional parts?

An "aero" kit that amounts to some nasty looking trim with a cheap badge. An oversized wing. Wheels too large for the car, serving no practical purpose. Brembo brakes for the red splash and name recognition. New tires and some vague suspension change.

I'd hope to see OEM quality improvements on a "factory tuned" car. The STi WRX vs WRX, or the WRX vs Impreza, by way of example. To me that's a factory tune.

This looks like the rice of the day special when what I really want is:

The wheels could use a little less offset.

ichitaka05 · 09-11-2012, 12:40 PM

Isn't the aero is from Aus ver? So finally came to Japan huh?

Also Dunlop DIREZZA ZII has "86" in the side wall too. Cuz of that, I would totally buy it　（I'm talking about the tires) lol

Just plain badass.. like it.

SO MUCH UNOBTANIUM

Actually, I'm really not a fan of the look. Reminds me too much of the grossly over-kitted TRD Celicas from the Fast and Furious era. Brakes are overkill, wheels are "meh" and the wing, which would look good on a widebody or something, is too much on this car. Especially if it still only has 200hp.

oooooo me like those wheels, tires, and brakes

This is the version I want and have been holding out for.

Can't wait to see it here in the US. If we don't, I won't be buying an FR-S for a while.

Stu baru · 09-11-2012, 01:25 PM

Definitely a look you either love or hate. Count me among the latter group. If it's your thing though, enjoy.

Spaceywilly · 09-11-2012, 01:27 PM

The body kit writes a check the car can't cash... pretty much the definition of rice. Sorry. It looks good but without any performance upgrades it's a joke.

DantKR · 09-11-2012, 01:47 PM

I'll take the brakes... and that's it :x
