GT86 UPDATE | IVE CHOSEN A BODYKIT FOR MY GT86
Its got enough power with Equal Length Headers & a (Pops & Crackels) Tune which takes away the Torque Dip. I’ll Spin my Wheels, doing a Burn Out as I take off & I can easily drift my Car in open Car Parks with lots of room! My 86GTS feels just like my old Nissan 300ZX Z32 Short Wheel Base 2 Seater Sports Car that I had when I was younger but, the 86GTS uses way less Fuel. If you Service it before it reaches 10,000 Kilometres & do the Comprehensive Service every 100,000 Kilometres then you shouldn’t have any problems! I’ll replace my Coil Overs every 5 Years just for safety!
What a horrible car

Wish I had the balls and the finance to start UA-cam! I love cars (in 18 years of driving, I've had over 100 cars!) keep up the good work mate, consider me subscribed 👍🏻
@@mikeplaysthings thank you! 🙏🏻 and honestly you don't need a lot of money at all to start! So if you're thinking about it I'd highly recommend doing it!
@ConnerRhysuk I have a phone and a nail of a 2009 VW Passat CC . . . Not sure that'll make decent content, but thanks for the encouragement 👍🏻🤣

@KaneR33gtr tell me about it! 🤣
What side skirts you using for the 86
they're the HT autos side skirts
@ConnerRhysuk thank you and love youre content
@ cheers dude 😁
Have you found the noise? Don’t sell it.
unfortunately not yet, tbh I haven't had much time over Christmas to have a proper look, however I will be giving into it in the next few weeks
@ The coilover spring shouldn’t be clunking like that once it’s on the ground with the weight of the car is on it, unless the shock itself is completely blown. It’s possible an engine or transmission mount is loose or bad. Possibly inner or outer tie-rod? Test tie-rods with wheel off the ground and wiggle the wheel with your hands on front and back to test for play. Steering rack secured? Exhaust hanger is possible. Battery secured? Your brake caliper should have that movement. It’s designed to float side to side, as long as the main bracket itself it’s firmly torqued properly.
@ awesome cheers for that mate I'll take a look!
You welcome Conner ;)

Welcome aboard, it’s a struggle to start with, I kept stuttering and having brain shits in videos, I tried to keep my videos family friendly but after a while I thought fuck it, it’s not me, main thing I care about it great shots, great music and getting my information across loud and clear and some times let the f bombs drop, we are human.. so are your viewers 🤙🏻
Ps I’ve just restored a mk1 mx5 you might want to check out, may be of interest
I just uploaded my first video it’s a lot harder than it looks 😂 you’ve already got it on smash I’ll defo be watching from now on 👍

what sizes ?
Good luck mate!🎉
Thank you 🙏🏻✌🏻
UA-cam recommended this to me, this is a fire video keep it up🔥
@@grxyCc cheers dude! 😁✌🏻
I have also had one for many years. Even though we always want more, I never had the feeling of lacking power or not going fast enough. The only thing that bothered me was the drop in torque at 4000 rpm. But this is easily correctable (tuning, header, E85...) And once again it is a feeling and I have obviously never measured it...
just remove it
Hey I have old Bentley from 1995 my car engine is not working properly I taken it many times to mechanic but then also my car some times stops suddenly so I bought a engine of an crashed bmw m5 engine now I want to put it in my car so if I put the new engine does it’s mandatory to change the transmission to bmw m5cs one transmission

Idk if you’ve done this already, but you should try a POV driving session in the day time and night time, that would be sick!
@@therealasim4922 that's a cool idea, might give that a go!
It is RIGHT for Toyota not to put turbo in 86/BRZ. If you want a turbo coupe, GO BUY SUPRA! NA, "LIGHTWEIGHT" and RWD are 86/BRZ selling points. Especially light weight is becoming a very RARE car feature, even Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini and even Lotus are getting heavier. There are only 2(3) light weight sport car that normal people can buy nowadays - 86/BRZ and MX5.
I had a 2013 Scion FRS for 9.5 years. I drove it from 5km to 250000km. Not a single issue just the recall. I never changed the brakes. Drove it in 30c to -40c in Canada. You need good summer tires like ps4s. Now I have a WRX. It's a boring car compared to the FRS.
Hello, "Conner Rhys" I was analyzing your channel and saw that in your channel have some problem, That's why your channel is not much growing and not getting much engagement, If you can solve these problems, Your channel will grow like a storm. If you tell I can tell these problems. Where can I tell? Here or ig or where?
Merry Christmas bro. Wishing you many happy miles
@@markfung5654 merry Christmas to you too! And I hope you have a great new year 😁
The Subaru - Toyota partnership will end in 2025. I don't think we'll see a BRZ variant , but a new GR 86 is rumered , and like other comments here suggested it could have the a de-tuned version 1.6 turbo from Yaris / Corolla GR , or some form of light hybrid. BTW power doesn't make a "sport car" sports cars come in varaity of shapes and sizes , sports car is not a supercar . A light wight , agile , razor sharp to drive car is a sports car , same with Miata , on that fron the Miata and GT86 / brz GR deliver in spades!
As a 2014 BRZ owner (from new) and keeping this little fire cracker for life, It doesn't need more power. I updated the FD ratio to make every gear faster, 1 piece aluminum drive shaft, 17x7.5 Enkei RPF1's with PS5 215 tires, bunch of STI and TRD bracing, Tein coilovers with their active damper system, Crawford power block intake runners for a little more TQ down low and the obligatory STI bling bits sprinkled round. Even did a full Stereo tare out and replace adding a tiny 4 channel amp and super light weight sub to the boot (9kg). As for the latest GR86, have seen how much that pig of a car weighs compared to the earlier gen? It also has less responsive steering feel.
Merry Christmas !
@@Alex770485 happy Christmas! And have a awesome new year 😁
Hopefully Toyota ditch the shit box Subaru engine in favour of the G16E-GTS.
@@whatwoulddarrendo1325 yeah that would be awesome
this is inaccurate, I have been told there will be an GR86 with a yaris 3 cylinder G16E-GTS engine comin soon by a very well known racing driver in Australia. Also it will be a similar weight So i guess we will see.
@@CA18Drifter yeah I didn't know anything of this until I made this video! Lol hopefully I am proved wrong because this would be cool!
It's also about throttle response, you can't get the instant throttle response generally from a turbo, unless you start seriously upping the engineering involved, and that would indeed add lots of cost and lots of weight. The 86 has also been about balance, responsiveness and lightness for handling.
why are you using such a weird filter?
@@mordante01 on what?
@ConnerRhysuk the film. The colours look weird
GR86 is ditching the subaru engine, you dont think they will put in a turbo?
@@Hoop_23 if Toyota ditch the Subaru engine and replace it with something better, that'll be something I'm very interested in
Editing on point bro!! 👌
@@christonrlblackman thank you dude 😁
This car is great the way they are it doesnt need a turbo from factory. Buy a skyline or supra or wrx sti if you want a turbo car period..
Yeah fair, can't argue that
Have you had a chance to have a go in a GR86? They are a level up all round and comparing the peak HP numbers doesn't tell the whole story - under the curve the GR86 is way up on torque, ofc you'll get more from FI mods on either but having tried both the GR86 is an incredible OEM piece of kit. In regards to the no OEM turbo - it's probably fair play on the GT and GR86 - but it's probably worth seeing what Toyota are cooking up with the next iteration, they seem to be breaking ties (or going in different directions) with BMW and Subaru atm. There's a lot of noise about the 3rd gen of this 86 being a 1.6 GTS hybrid - with mules out there running it already but automotive is a weird world and until it's actually announced and on Toyota's website it's never a done deal. Toyota will be announcing something in 2-3 weeks time at the Tokyo Auto Salon but that might just be the Celica and I guess a GRMN revised Yaris.
@@CarAndMechanical Ngl I've wanted to drive a GR86 for a while now, I think they're great looking cars and of course are a little better on the performance side. Hopefully at some point I'll be able to get in one and have a go. I'm really excited to see what they cook up with the newly announced Celica and mr2, can't wait to see those!
GR86 already has more power and more torque. It doens't need a turbo in my opinion.
@@izustun9851 probably not, but it is one thing lots of people say the car should have, hence why I made this video, to kinda explain why, Toyota / Subaru won't do it
Annnnnd you mean Subaru....
@@trn8061 well it's Toyota and Subaru
@ConnerRhysuk yes but a Subaru designed and built engine...
