So I can get the Carrillo con rods for £1159 (that includes VAT) from Performance Unlimited but they also mentioned they have some Manley con rods for the GT86/BRZ for £816 (again includes VAT). I've not heard of Manley before but then I hadn't heard of Carrillo until I saw them mentioned in a few threads on here, so I've no idea what their reputation is like. Anyone used them for anything before? |
