supra2nv's GT86 (inspired by 14R TRD Griffon, and a lil bit of NSX) - Page 22 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Im curious as to what the stock wheel tire combo is to the TRD...I mean its probably minimal...but for sure will be a difference...and the other lightweight items did you get (is there even one available?) a flywheel? They make huge differences in unsprung weight of the engine

Few more questions :P Is there extra screws needed to order? This along with kneepads are something I am considering, but am still unsure if (per side) $44 for speaker surround +$36 for speaker grill + Having to find Toyota screws from elsewhere from Japanparts.com is worth it to have JDM compared to JPMcoachworks $136 for both sides, one-piece items that fit like OEM USDM.

I just ordered the JDM knee panel set from Luis and he told me it includes everything including the screws... no mention of the speaker rings though...

so is this car going to be worth about 45-50k$

charged86 · 07-10-2013, 06:08 PM

Wow speechless

FiRStsc10n · 07-10-2013, 09:06 PM

Also saw you didn't like the TRD sound tube (red) on your youtube channel, was it bad?

Ohh, I couldn't tell it was your Raven from the video, can only see engine bay. So will you be putting it in your 10 Series, you like it?

Edit: Now that I think about it. The vehicle frame is black and is color coded. DUH!

That's correct. But you get a better sound because of the trd intake anyway, so it's okay.

Fett4Real · 07-10-2013, 11:48 PM

I want the TRD intake but cant justify it...no power gained over a filter?!?!?!

blanco · 07-10-2013, 11:57 PM

Check YouTube - I saw a dyno post 2.5 gain. The sound, name, and aesthetics are worth it IMHO

A drop in filter gives more HP than the TRD intake...

Fett4Real · 07-11-2013, 12:09 AM

Theres so many claims but a filter will net about the same. And Ive owned far more expensive intakes, that looked better but that was a different me...I think with this car its going to be more low key and spending money wisely...a Perrin Filter > TRD Intake cost to power ratio....rather put the money toward a header

ill86 · 07-11-2013, 12:34 AM

Filtration is important as well. Buy what you like. You aren't going to notice anything other than the sound and hopefully lower intake temps.

Also keep in mind you probably don't drive on a dyno everyday. While they can simulate driving, it is not the same as being on track at speed.

I think I will still do most of what i want, but no kit now.
