hi guys.. Toyota 86 user from Cebu..

Made my reservation for a white MT back in July 2012 and took delivery nung Dec 2012..
didn't expected the car to arrive much sooner kase haba na ng list when I was filling out the form
But apparently, mas madami nagpa~pareserve sa AT kesa sa MT
kaya maaga ko nakuha yung sa akin..


some pics fresh from the dealer..




put my old jap plates to good use




breaking in the 86 in the weee hours of the morning..
parking on the other side of the road.. :roll:




86 blending in with the locals









I used to own the old 86
here's me having some fun drifting at a mini karting track here in cebu..







with the new 86, power and handling is definitely 100% better in stock form..
marami kase ako nababasa from other threads na kulang daw sa power yung bagong 86/BRZ...
pero if you've tried the old one, the new one is just right to have fun with.

sorry for the long post... 1st post kase eh kaya medyo excited hahahaha

Congratulation to you and your car. Iba talaga kapag naka Japanese plates... nagiiba tingin mo sa auto

I also like the photo of your car on the "touge"... sets the mood for driving

I'm also not sure why people prefer the automatic for this car... I guess its a daily driven car but for purist/enthusiast the manual is the only option.

I would like to try the AE86 but i'm pretty sure it's hard to live with (no power steering and ABS) but that's point of that car... it would teach you car balance and control; that's the reason why I like the new 86 so much.

For people who are complaining it's under powered, it's simple... you're doing it wrong

Good morning guys, got the 86 last January 31 from Toyota Bicutan.
Its black, base model M/T. Milage was 11kms when I got it, and currently at 150kms. Hope to meet the group soon.

*I am from Alabang

Current:
1. Removed rear 'toyota' word emblem
2. Removed some trunk tools
3. Sucked out 3/4 liter of engine oil as it was way over filled from the factory
4. Gassed up with Shell Vpower Racing
5. Breaking-it-in softly via 50-80% throttle until 4k rpm and on an increasing pace as
milage increases. plenty of decelerations to induce vacuum
6. Minor crickets at 850rpm-1.1k rpm on 2nd gear acceleration, usually after bumps/humps (very minimal and I think its normal)

Initial Plans:
1. Paint sealant, Paint cleaner this week
2. Greddy SP Elite axle back (ordered)
3. TRD Shift knob
4. TRD strut bar
5. 18's gram lights silver
6. Smaller plate frame (our cars come with European plate frames which is too long
for our local plates)
7. Maybe a set of coilovers (thinking twice as it might ruin the cars suspension
balance)

Tye300 / TGT 86, I work somewhere in Ortigas and I am pretty sure that the black 86 with TGT plate is yours. I always see your car parked at El Pueblo basement parking in which I park everyday. Your car is a total baddass. I admire the things you did, very simple and elegant -- from rims to interior modifications. Where did you get your parts? We should see each other soon.

Victorb,

Yes that's me. I'm always at El Pueblo because I'm a tenant there. (Archipelago7107) Thanks for the kind words, hope to see your car and meet you soon. I got my rims from Emperor Autokozmetix in Home Depot ortigas and the TRD parts from the Hong Kong distributor Kingston. If you need help getting some parts just let me know.

P.S.
As I said in my previous post, gassing up with V-power seems to make the crickets under the hood appear. In my experience gassing up with Blaze makes it go away.

LonelydriverZN6, I was in Corinthians the other day, I think I saw your car there. Was that you? Also saw a black 86 there too.

Nice! Still can't get over the black TGT 86. I heard you just recently had an FHM show there. That would be a good venue for the group. I am a very technical guy, I would not gas up the tank more than 50% of blaze as it is very strong with unknown additives. From exp, it makes the engine run hot, cold start idle rough and might even make the engine stall (my friend experienced this on his Audi q5 with di). When I reach half tank I'll put in blaze. Will update on how it goes. Hope to see you soon!

My first fill-up was with Shell V-Power Racing. Noticed the crickets soonafter. Been running Petron Blaze for 1,700km now, no cricket sound so far
