Can you tell me if the 0w-20 engine oil specified is also supposed to be fully synthetic?
My dealer wants to use Mobil 5w-30 semi synthetic for my Toyota 86 and i'm sure I read somewhere it's fully synthetic only?

phloozy · 07-10-2013, 01:18 PM

could you just post pics here? if you need posting pics feel free to ask

KGFRS86 · 07-10-2013, 01:30 PM

Yeah emailing for pics is a bit weird...should post them here for the internets.

3_NA_HAF · 07-10-2013, 01:37 PM

Agreed. I'd like to see this. Did you do the piece around the gauges too? I'm thinking about doing this with my hot lava.

DealerFR-S · 07-10-2013, 05:59 PM

Yes only use the 0-20 Full Synthetic. Dont put any other oil in it!! And i would love to share the pics with all of you on here....but im having trouble uploading them! It says that they are too large and i need to resize them. I dont know how to do that. So if anyone could help me, i will post all the pics for yall to see! Also, i have had MANY MANY custum things made for the inside and outside. The one you guys will like the best would probley be the arm rest that matches the inside.

Use photobucket then use the IMG option copy and post te code in a reply to this post.

Interesting. One of the (admittedly crazy) bugaboos I have that's prevented a purchase is the black interior. This seems like it would be a fairly labor intensive job. I'm interested in any insights you might have. Changing the interior to a lighter color (*any* lighter color) would be awesome.

use imgur.com to host pictures. Photobucket images dont always stay around

DealerFR-S · 07-10-2013, 10:30 PM

Well all the cars come with the black and red interior. But i have seen a few people take the seats out and change the inside to light gray suede and make the seats light gray suede with color matching inserts. Or leather. Both look great. But cost wise, you would be looking at 1000.00-3000.00. Depending on how custom you want to go with it! But dont let that hold you back from buying such a bad ass car! FYI....it would be very labor intensive.

I painted my trim with the OEM Firestorm fr-s color. What do you guys think?

DealerFR-S · 07-10-2013, 10:56 PM

Got this arm rest made in Japan. It should have been factory

phloozy · 07-10-2013, 10:58 PM
