    Slack, I got a set of used 17x8 TE's on the way to run semi's. But still haven't done any of the other shit yet either.

    Yeah a mate didn't seem overly impressed with what he saw in those OTS tunes, I wouldn't run them regardless.

    What are you using to get live logging? He normally uses EvoScan but couldn't get live logging going on the 86 with a quick play last night. I'm sure last info I saw on RomRaider was that it didn't support it yet either? Dumps to tactrix SD card is a pain in the arse, so my E85 tune and another one waiting on a turbo will have to wait.

      I've been back in aus so I've been driving I should be back in Japan in a few weeks so I'll start getting bits and pieces then, probably starting with some 18*8.5 TWS rims

            Yep

            Coyote - what tyres are you running, 245/35 PSS's? It disturbs me greatly that we'll have the same suspension and the same rims.

              Explete me - that thing looks pretty damned seriously good!
              Soft roaders represent an excellent compromise between the needs of the hardcore 4x4 user and the convenience of a city hatchback. Its clear to see why they have become so popular in todays society.

                  second best looking coyote! nah mines pretty boring!

                  coyote tuned mine on e85 exclusively

                  it great having more power all over now, it just feels like a bigger engine and it's a lot keener to rev, slight increase in thirst is offset by the cheaper fuel

                    Are you guys finding it much more uncomfortable when stepping up to coilovers and 18's?

                    The ugly stock wheels and 4WD ride height on mine are annoying me a bit, but it's actually my sensible car and I need it to get places. I think I need TE37s and MCAs!

                      Those are 17s on mine above. It's only lowered about 25mm as per josh Cootes recommendations. Ride is fine for me but best have a drive in one to be sure. The new blues are apparently a lot better in regards to comfort. This was to be my sensible at too I still think it is.

                        This is mine - Pictures with 17's and BC coilovers - daily driving is on set of 18's - I set the coilovers to maximum soft and its actually softer ride than stock on the road.

                          What's your L/100KM say regular driving giving it the odd squirt? Are you using EFlex or E85?

                            Last two tanks have been 12.5. Sounds bad but I drive 10ks in ~25 mins to work. Just enough to warm up! It's pretty much worst case scenario.
                            That's nearly all the driving i do in it with 3 young kids. Few track days etc. Before e85 the dash computer read in the 12s using 98. I never bothered to check actual rate because I never worried about fuel consumption. It definitely gone up but it's not as bad as I thought it could be. It's only done 12000 ks since I got it 17 months ago!

                            edit: i'm using caltex e-flex

                              12.5/100 on eFlex is fucking awesome, but are you using a real measurement ie (say trip reads 200KM and put it 25L of e-flex?)

                              If go of the trip meter ie traveled 250 KM i'm putting in about 45-47 L or eFlex (and much much more when at the track about 20L of e-flex per 50KM of track time)

                              So I'm at about 18-19L/100

                                yep real measurements using old school techniques. I filled up 25.5 litters this morning for 210ks.
