I have this installed, and went for a drive and hit 86km

Started blacking out my headlights and installing leds. They are white not blue

Drove it through 1" of fresh snow yesterday. Was a lot of fun, got some mild drift/countersteer action going. Even got my passenger to crack a (nervous) grin.

I can tell this car would be a handful in deeper snow though. Would need real snowtires and probably some weight in the rear.

Pretty cool...

Speaking of LEDs anyone did something like this but the original gt86 LED on top angled down..is that possible mod to do or no room?

nice

how much for the carbon wraps? looking to do mine like that.. like the shift ring looks good.. pops out or had to unscrew it?

mangostick · 01-25-2013, 11:29 PM

got it home before the snow and tucked it happily into a nice dry garage

I would have loved to go out and try the winter tires out.. get some donut/drift action in.... but I'm too chicken shit scared of other drivers. Virginia Beach isn't exactly snow central.. and people here are already stupid lol

So, do you have any stats on the true increase in perfomance? I am asking if you ran a 1/4 mi before and after to see direct results? Or something similiar ? Trying to decide if should wait for supercharger kit or try this tune in spring.
Thanks

I installed my Five Axis 5:AD and must say looks pretty damn nice.

I took my son for a drive. Found a parking lot with a little snow, so I turned off the traction control and did some slowmotion drifting.

He thought it was pretty much the best thing ever. Who says this isn't a family car?

Agreed. I'm from Upstate NY originally and it's mind blowing how bad most Virginians are at driving in inclement weather. Rain included.

he! he! he! to be perfectly honest,even here in the northeast,on THIS car ya install the dedicated snows,and hope that if ya get "caught" in the stuff,you are able to get home to lock it up in the garage,and leave it there until the plow guys do their thing! (lol) just sayin'
