  1. Yeap, gearbox is rated to 250nm, when you take into account 10% or more safety factor, it should hold up for street thrashing and skids on 225 RS3's. Wise clutch selection is also required, the stock clutch hopefully should hold, if not, a slightly heavier one may be required, but, nothing overly heavy, the clutch will be the fuse prior to the gearbox.
  2. Currently very costly I would assume, lots of extra wiring and shit FA24 is "apparently" pretty much a bored out FA20, so, maybe a viable bottom end swap if/when needed. Not sure of how/if they added strength to the block or internals. Also not sure about oiling. I am keen to see what people do, I'm not going to be one of the first though.
  3. Been thinking, again, bad things happen when I think..........booked in for early September, dooh.... "PULSE BRZ/86 TURBO KIT We have developed a turbocharger kit for the BRZ/GT86 twins that really helps bring the car to life and maximises the platform’s incredible potential. We start with a custom modified AVO kit, which includes a carefully selected turbo, manifold and intercooler combination that provides awesome low-end torque and response with enough top end grunt to see you giving XR6 Turbos a hard time! Our kit comes with all hoses, fittings and mounting components included, and mates to a custom unequal length headers + high flow overpipe & front pipe setup. A nice bonus with the turbo kit and exhaust system is that we give the car back a nice deep WRX rumble that’s missing from factory. A little bit of boost makes the 86/BRZ come alive, and gives the little car a much needed power and torque increase. With our turbo kit and ECU tune its not uncommon to expect a safe 190kW at the wheels on 98 octane fuel, which is quite a dramatic step up over the standard performance of the car (100- 110kW on average). Much of the extra power and torque increases over stock can be found down low and midway through the rev range, which gives the BRZ/GT86 an incredibly usable power band and turns it into a proper rocket of a car that will turn the factory tyres without even trying. We have developed this kit to maximise the power potential whilst preserving a factory appearance and most importantly, a very high level of safety and reliability. TURBO KIT Custom spec billet wheel turbo + upgraded wastegate actuator Oil scavenge pump setup Unequal length exhaust headers Front Mount Intercooler & piping (black) Intake piping to mate to factory airbox (powder coated black, very stock looking) HKS high flow air filter element All fittings & braided lines required Oil breather & catch can setup All labour to install Custom Pulse Racing Tune (Including launch control, flat foot shifting, auto-blip on downshifts – whichever options you desire" And yes, I desire all options.
  4. $545 Give me money for my "boost it" fund.
  5. Love the car Love the work space and tools Looks like your enjoying life Nice work
  6. $570 Hektic Subi rumbles and stuff You buy now
  7. Looks fun. Just need to run a 1/4 now to prove the results. I'll bring the donuts Mmmmmm, donuts
  8. Armor all wheel cleaner is quite good for the price. That would be where I would start. From looking at it, the clear coat is gone and there is pitting. If they are good rims they might justify the cost, maybe at least a couple of hundred each rim to refurb.
  9. Is your Mrs my Mrs? The minister of war and finances
  10. Was that the question? If so, I'll ask my Mrs, she has an answer to everything and she is never wrong...
  11. Cheers, but I'm more of a hookers and coke kind of guy
  12. Just went for a quote, a place I've used before who do top work. $1500, ouch. The cost is due to the amount of prep and processes required to guaranty a quality finish that will last. So, the TRD knockoff (requires paint) costs $500ish, then $1500 to paint. The original TRD one cost about $1500 shipped to my door (no painting required). Looks like the genuine item is the only way to go
  13. Any pro painters out there I'm curious how much this will cost to paint It has a gel coat finish Will require some spray filler Looking at Matte black I'll be looking at getting it painted locally, just need a idea so I don't get ripped off Cheers
  14. Better than the eBay classic of selling something for a typical price, but, having the shipping at $3k dollars https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ROCKET-RB-VER-2-STYLE-FRONT-DIFFUSER-FRP-FOR-TOYOTA-FT86-GT86-FRS-SUBARU-BRZ-/262811183965
  15. Got the SME 2.5" resonated front pipe on. The cabin is a much nicer place to be, exhaust isn't tinny at higher RPM. Shit photo is shit, but it aint going up again for a better pic
  16. It needs a coat of VHT krinkle paint Way to shiny for my liking
  17. Where I can buy tickets, linky me Paypal? Also need SAU sticker to put on my Toyota that is made by Subaru
  18. Don't be scared, don't let fear stop you Put your money where your mouth is, there will be enough clear air for everyone
  19. Yes, as stated previously, good ums need to get out more. Problem is they cost alot now and people are wary of walls. Still........costs me nothing to watch 'n' listen
  20. Crap, I mistook you for Dosepipe. You guys all look the same to me.....................................................
