Would you mind.. if I.. 86'ed them?

From urbandictionary: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=86%27d
"To get rid of, originally for killing someone. The phrase "80 miles out and 6 feet under" was reserved for someone who had to dig their own grave 80 miles from civilization and then get shot execution-style. All terms for 86'd originated from this, be it alcohol or eliminating."
It's supposed that Jimmy Hoffa was 86'd under the endzone of Giants Stadium.''

Restraunt industry jargon for an item that has been removed, temporarily from the menu and is no longer available to be sold or served. Usually for the reason that the supply of said item has run out.
The deal with the preschool fell through, so the filet of child sandwhich is 86'd.''

From Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/86_(term)
" "86","86ed", "86'd", or eighty-sixed when used as a verb in American English, is a slang term for getting rid of something, ejecting someone, or refusing service.

According to Merriam-Webster's Dictionary, "86" is a slang term that is used in the American popular culture as a transitive verb to mean throw out or get rid of, particularly in the food service industry as a term to describe an item no longer available on the menu, or to refuse service to a customer.[2]
Today, the term "86", and especially its past tense, "86ed" is widely used in American culture and beyond."

Yup, still for sale. But only for local pickup. Not keen to sell to any interstates :/

Did some driver training at the RAC skidpan yesterday with a WRX Owners club of WA and a couple of the 86/BRZ guys in our facebookgroup. More pics here

[stevo_12v]

Clocked over 20,000km last night!



Also some pictures of the floor mats installed. I bought a $4.95 floor mat from Clark Rubber Odin Road to also cover the drivers side floor mat - the Toyota floor mat is too short and dirt/sand gets behind the mat into the carpet.



Modified the other mat to fit with the foot rest.


Getting a custom made over pipe made up tomorrow morning. Then hopefully get a tune this Sunday!

Careful that the mat doesnt get in the way of the pedals

Yup. Still for sale. Do you have a white car too, would be ideal. Otherwise you'll have to paint it. They have a rubber type seal on the top of the pods, so that will be tricky.

Yes, mine is white. It arrives at Kalamunda Toyota Tomorrow!
I also have the trd body kit (front and sides), and some sf2 wheels on order.
I was shocked to see you had the same idea of combining the TRD front and sides, with the Modellista rears. I think it works really well.
I'm looking at getting a brake upgrade but need to find out what's legal here.
Those Buddy Club brakes look good for $3000 but not sure about the quality of them, Plus the name (buddy Club) sounds like a name you would call a gay bar!

Nice!! There's a 'weekly bubble tea' meet up the rest of the Perth guys go to at Myaree Utopia tomorrow night. Join up and check the FB Page for more info:

Also, good! since your car is white it should match up nicely with the bodykit and paint. The double sided adhesive is peeled off from underside of it, but I have some very good 3M VHB 4949 all weather tape that is BETTER than the original adhesive. Also I'll PM you the price too.

Had a custom sticker made up..
It's in a similar vein to those 'Nurburgring' stickers that you see on some Euro/track orientated cars..
