Things I wish I could get on my FRS/BRZ thread - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

EvoFanatic · 03-14-2012, 12:45 PM

To clarify for those of you confused on this thread. Post things you want the aftermarket (can be crazy) to make or things you wish Toyota would offer as options! Personally I would like my list to be stock options but I know I would want carbon fiber body kits as an AM option.

1. A turbo
2. A Big Brake Kit
3. A Duck-bill spoiler
4. Wider Fenders
5. More Diffusers
6. Toyota (not scion) badges! (just for looks)
7. Diff. options!
8. Wider stock wheels/tires 245-275 would be really nice maybe even 19s!
9. Stock Camber adjustments! TOE IN BITCH!
10. Stripped down bare-bones version without all the garbage (aka. airbags, back seats, random trim and electronics, ect.)
11. Recaos!!!
12. Quad Exhaust tips (just for looks again lol)
UPDATE:
13. PRE-ROLLED AND FLARED FENDERS!!!!!!!

I'm assuming the price and delivery date don't count.

1. Duckbill Spoiler
2. NAV system (non BeSpoke)
3. Black Badges (don't like the chrome, OK with Scion)
4. K&N Air Intake

86fanatic · 03-14-2012, 01:14 PM

I'd like Xenons on the Scion, and maybe a gauge which tells me how many miles left on the remaining fuel.

FRSDREAMER · 03-14-2012, 01:16 PM

1. K&N Air intake
2. Brembo brake kit
3. TRD exhaust

Turbowned · 03-14-2012, 01:37 PM

1. TRD S/C kit
2. TRD exhaust
3. 4-pot/2-pot brakes
4. Factory Recaros
5. Bilstein adjustable coil-overs
6. Better wheels/tires

Having sat in and seen the car up close and in-person, I can say my list is now different than it may have been prior. I'm also not a pie-in-the-sky sort of dreamer, so my list is rather pragmatic.

*Wheels with more appropriate offset [too much tuck w/OEM wheel]
*1.5" less wheel gap w/out screwing up suspension geometry
*JDM exhaust tips, stainless axle-back exhaust
*UEL headers option
*cleaned up engine bay [i.e. have a German engineer rework the Alternator, A/C, fuel lines, and wiring harness from being so ugly and in-your-face]
*more adjustments designed into suspension: i.e. front camber & caster
*TRD duckbill or Nur/Gazoo basket handle wing in place of awkward BRZ spoiler
*windows up & down with key fob lock & unlock buttons
*ability to lower rear seat back from the cabin
*7-speed manual, same ratios as current 6-speed but with a 6AT-esque overdrive ratio for Interstate cruising.

Just for fun, things I'd keep the same:
*the front seats, ergonomics, seating position
*the steering wheel, the shifter
*naturally aspirated
*tire size and model choice
*modest brakes [DD intent for me]

The fenders are prerolled

Sport-Tech · 03-14-2012, 03:58 PM

The option to have automatic rev matching/throttle blipping on downshifts with the manual transmission (a la 370Z).

Less wheel gap.

Why would you want that?

I suck at it ill admit but its something i want to learn to do properly (and Heel-Toe)

If we keep throwing electronic gizmos at manual transmissions the experience will end up being the same as playing a video game with a racing wheel/shifter setup.....you do nothing but shift while the car does everything else for you.
