make them fit!

Looks brilliant! The blue wasn't all that high on my list until I saw this. Toyota/Subaru have had aftermarket in mind when designing the car, so lowering it a bit and fitting slightly bigger rims shouldn't do much harm. This one's obviously had some camber applied to it...

As far as your GTR-spec 17x9s, as I understand it, the stock rims (on GTS grade) are 17 x 7.0, and you can easily use 17 x 9.0s but both the offset and stud pattern of your rims in particular will be wrong - the 86 will need higher offsets and a 5x100 PCD.

Took one for a spin. Love it, was about to put down a deposit but I seriously can't make a decision between white or black. The black looks great in person, whereas in photos it seems to dull the lines. White however really shows the lines, but from some angles it makes it look like a Corolla. I don't know why but it's what i associate the colour white with. I think I need to see one to make a final judgement.

Follow enough white transit vans around Sydney and you'll come to the right decision.

What kind of black Subaru magic is this?

Red looks good, I want a red one, without a doubt they are the best sporty little thing since the 200.

How is the room in the back, OK for kids ?

apparently,seats are only in the rear for cheap rego/insurance in japan.

Here's a little teaser on how my 2 hour drive in the 86 went this afternoon:

    • Me too. Apparently the new version of Invision will allow some customisation so look forward to a 'Love' reaction and a new 'Like' icon.
    • Which injectors are you using? It's likely the fuelling is off also, so as above.
    • Awesome to know. I have a Series 1, and When pulling my front bumper off for the first time i realised my reo/crash bar was a bit worse for wear, and was going to try pick up a better one soon just so i can replace it. Someone is selling a full series 2 front bar and brackets for a decent price, so was going to probably reuse my brackets and install the new second hand reo/crash bar. I also have a genuine Altia body kit to do up, spray and put on, and not sure if that will use the series 1 or series 2 brackets for the front bumper, so having both will be handy, and knowing i can drill holes out to make stuff fit between series is also handy to know!
    • I should also say that the while they are different the only parts that matter are the center headlight supports and center bar from S1 to S2. The center bar will work, but the S1 has holes that clips go through into the S1 bumper. So if you were super cheap you could simply drill the S2 bar. Same thing with the side/wings. They have slightly different 'clips' but can be made to work. The center headlight brackets however, cannot. This is also where the GTR differs, which has a different center bar, and different headlight supports (to either GTT system), it also has different 'wing' headlight supports which is what I am calling under the headlight. However those CAN be made to work with the GTT Reo for a GTR front bar by a small spacer and a drill/tapping a thread into the reo because the bolt positions are slightly different. So people only really need the center brackets to go between GTT S1, GTT S2, and GTR if you are happy to do some tinkering.
    • Indeed  😃  Appears the site is back up now (migrated not updated) - kudos @funkymonkey & @PranK
