I really want to buy that camera. Can you share pictures of your installation.? The only thing about that camera that is keeping me from buying it is that it's battery life is about 5 mins. Just enough to start it up, and the frz/brz's cigarrets outlet doesn't have power once the ignition is off. I would like my camera to run even if the car is off.

Did you hot wire to constant Power?

Installed a Perrin shift rod bushing. Was a b#$% to get on the rod but worth it. Much less slop and feels great. Was a solid suggestion as a good early mod.

Honestly, I'm not 100% what people mean when they talk about drone. It's an aftermarket exhaust so I expect it to be loud(er). I expect to be able to hear it in the car at all times (idle, acceleration, cruising, deceleration, etc). I'm sure I'm missing something. If so, I'd love someone to explain it to me.

Parked my 86 as I met up with my mates for a quick dinner at the shopping center. There was a massive concrete block at the end of the spot and I thought it was much lower like at other car parks. Got out of the car to see my TRD bodykit literally centimeters away from the block. Freaked the **** out and so relieved I didn't hit it.

Drone usually occours at low RPM, like 2000rpm or so and is more pronounced at high load, like when your in fourth but only going slow and then gas it, the exhaust will drone as it labours. In a nutshell, its that one exhaust note that totally fu#ks with your eardrums lol

I can't imagine the drone with Nvidia etc. catbacks to be so bad, I have a muffler delete and it does definitely drone but it's not too bad at all so I can't see aftermarket pipes with mufflers being too bad

Thanks a lot. I can honestly say I haven't really noticed it. But then again I haven't had it for long, so I've spent most of the time on the throttle just because I enjoy hearing the rumble.
