              Works like dream with about 1,500 KM's on it so far.
              Yeah I need to get the name out there a little more and get all of the fanbois on board! Should have one for the 07-15WRX shortly too along with many jap offerings by March next year. I've been working on some longer term marketing that should pay off soon so hopefully that helps build the brand.

              Even my cheap HD replacement seems to be holding 240kw atw happily and keeping cars downshifting to 2nd markedly easier than OE! :D

              Happy to wait! It could be this time next year and i'd be content! (i'm one of those think and plan lots when $$$ involved kinda guys)

                Info on clutch? I'm adding boost and not sure my abused for 60k stock one will last much longer.

                  Stock clutch wont hold 4th. Mantic clutch is a dream. So much feel, unlike the extreme which was like a light switch.

                    What's pricing like on these cars nowadays? Presuming now that demand is dropping off, the early days of "pay full RRP and wait many months" are long gone?

                        We're 4 years in now so it's much easier however the pricing was pretty sharp to begin with so there's not a lot of room to move. Big savings are in second hand market, first deliveries were 3 1/2 years ago so a heap now starting to come off lease so the secondhand market is flooded, there's some good buying there now.

                          Mine's off lease next year, the tough decision is whether to boost it or sell it! On the one hand 350-400hp would be nice, on the other the interior may have rattled itself out by then...

                          About $10k for the Coyoda kit + clutch and brake upgrade maybe?

                            Took forever to sell mine. I really liked the car but at the same time I'm glad I sold it.

                              Toyota website reckons a manual 86 GT is $33,696 driveaway in the ACT based on RRP of $29,990. Would it be too much to expect to get on road costs knocked off? Even then it's probably more than I'd be willing to spend.

                              Agree on the second hand market though - noticing fairly low km 2012-13 cars are plentiful at the $23-25k mark and 2014 cars a little more as you'd expect. $10k off new seems a pretty reasonable (but not outstanding) saving.

                                Why's that? Just bored with it or issues?
