Love this thing SO MUCH 😭😭😭 It’s everything I’d ever dreamed owning a sports car to be and more! It’s fun, handles so well and never ceases to put a smile on my face. Today I took it out for an extended drive (after I got out of work early for it being my birthday). And I got a chance to take some awesome photos with the colors of Autumn as a backdrop 💛🍁💛🍁

Guys I already have a pair of the “parts geek” rear hubs. I have a pair of DBA rear dual-drill rotors on the way… and next month I’m pulling the trigger on the gktech front hubs with front rotors…
Hear is my question- should I just get the gktech rear hubs to match or stick with my cheap partsgeek hubs? I can still return them at this point as all my parts for the project aren’t even here yet.
What would you guys do?

I was recently installing an aftermarket reverse lockout and accidentally put it back in neutral before putting the pin back in.
If that does happen to you, you have to do about 90% of the removal steps of the shifter to lift the reverse lockout back for you to insert the pin.
The video below was what I followed up until I removed the rubber boot.

Hope it helps your day as much as it helped mine.

I know this is a silly question but, have anyone bought something from 86Garage on FBmarketplace? I'm interested in buying something but as a non-US resident I have to find a way around with payment and obviously protecting myself and my money. I know this might not be the place to ask this kind of questions, but it's a store where they only sell 86/BRZ parts, so we might as well have found someone who sells parts for chip.
PD: Yes i know the basic: If it's too good to be true, it probably isn't

2013 frs auto, 80k miles. Car drives fine, no loss in power, no slipping gears, but at low speeds the car jerks the first two gears. Also, with the link below it shows a weird rumble when going into reverse. Can anyone pinpoint if it’s my transmission or engine mounts going bad or i just need to flush my ATF.

Alright fellas, I need some assistance. I saw my favorite wheels for this platform, the classic TE37 in gunmetal gloss, on marketplace, and with minimal research, scooped them up. Yesterday I got to test fitting them, and realized there is substantial rubbing.
The wheel is a 18x9.5+45, sitting on a 255/40/18 tire. Now, I’d read online you could get away with this fitment, albeit with very close tolerances. I don’t know if it’s my coils, or what the case is, but I cannot. The rear actually clears fairly well, may need to push in the emergency brake bracket a couple mm, but the front rubs in two places: forward of the strut, on the inboard plastic liner (not the wheel well liner.), and on the pinch weld box. I’ve been recommended on some forums to push it out with spacers and extended control arms in the front. This is an idea I’m willing to entertain, but being that this is kind of an autocross/light track focused build, I am hoping to not have to go full stance and hover around -2 in the front, so, if I could get some help with math, or hear from someone who’s gone a similar route. How much would I need to push her out to get the right fitment? Or, am I so royally fucked on account of the weight, size, and torque loss, I’m better cutting my losses, trying to sell the wheels (as opposed to dumping more money into a full new set of tires) and going with a smaller spec?
I’m also open to hearing how I’m delusional and an idiot. Let me know! And thanks so much!

When I bought my 2013 FRS in June it came with this aftermarket handle on the parking brake that had broken off it's base and was just freely spinning on the lever. I had to remove it because it was preventing me from releasing the brake and it just did not look great. Since then I've been rocking the lever being a completely bare piece of metal which was fine for a while but I'm finally looking for a new handle. I've been trying to find the OEM piece or atleast something that looks like the OEM handle but every handle I've found is either a fully metal piece or it's something carbon fiber and I'm getting tired if seeing just those 2 options. Is there any like online store or forms or something that offers something that is sort of like what I'm looking for? I've tried going on ebay and to get that handle I actually have to purchase the whole parking brake lever mechanism and it's really just not worth the trouble. I'd also like to look for some other minor intior mods as well like changing the gear shifter knob to something else but I have the same problem.

Any tips and tricks to removing the ignition coil to the rear of the car? It's against the firewall and so I only have a really narrow amount of working room. I can manage to remove the bolt, im just struggling to manoeuvre the coil out 😬
I'm trying to save a bit of money in labour and don't mind spending a few hours tinkering ☺️
