Aight, it's been awhile since I posted anything here at all...
Buuuuut since last time I posted, I have been to Japan and well I bought some new stuff for my 86, that I hopefully will be get fitted during March, as it got stuck in customs..

I did buy some small stuff in Japan too, that I have fitted to the TRD86, but I will post pictures of that when I get home from the Northsea, then I will also update my build thread a bit too.

I have also ordered new wheels, that are scheduled to arrive sometime in March

I spoke to Toyota here in Sweden and they can sell the car with the Cosworth stuff without affecting the warranty, what is the problem with Norwegian regulations?

I was under the impression that Swedish bilprovningen dislikes 3rd party superchargers and turbos just as much as Norwegian biltilsynet.

Yes they are but if it comes tuned and ready from start i think it will ok, I'm not sure thou. Toyota told me it will be ok. i will look more into it once i hear more about the upgrades

Wow, that's awesome!
That would work nicely in Norway too.
I would be astounded if it happens, though.
I'd trade in my '13 GT86 for a new one with Cosworth supercharger in a heartbeat, especially if it came with the 5 year full warranty.
Please keep us updated on this, someone might try importing one!

Also if it's true, you can get the edelbrock supersharger approved in Norway, due to the CARB approval, which is more strict than TÜV, but need to doubble check with biltilsynet about that first.. :p

So update time!

I finally recived my Rocket Bunny V3 ducktail, that I bought back in November on my lasst trip to Japan, I'm also lucky enough to know Kenji Yamanaka whom painted it, and signed it before he sent it to me.

I have also recived my Work Meisters S1 3P, that I custom ordered with the following spec:
Front 18x8" ET 35 A-disk
Rear 18x8" ET 30 O-disk
Both got Matt gunmetal center, Gold rivets and Bronze lip.

Tires are Michelin Pilot Sport 4, 225/40R18 all around.
Car is lowered on TRD adjustable suspension set, rest suspension is stock, so I need to get some lca to get my camber sorted.
Camber specs:
Front Left: -0,45 Front Right: -0,38
Rear Left: -2,15 Rear Right: -2,29
