I'm currently fantasizing about replacing our German cars with a Lexus GX550/Land Cruiser that i could just forget to change the oil in like a dirty dirty girl.

You're loving insane if you want any truck other than that or a Ford Ranger (the OG Ranger, not the current one)

Maybe it's because our family daily driver when I was a kid was a 60s beetle but every car for sale now looks way too big to the point of being highly impractical. The smallest car Honda sells now is the Civic which has to be approaching the dimensions of a Crown Vic which used to be considered a full size car.

Did they discontinue the Fit/Jazz over there? You can still buy them new down here in NZ, looks pretty great in the RS trim too.



Definitely ballooned to the size of what the Civic was ~15 years ago though.

I tried to like Lexus, I looked at an RCF and an LC and whilst the big old V8 motors were selling points they're hardly performant for the engines they're packing and the interiors seemed a bit dated.

I think Lexus is far more tailored for a person like me who thinks that 150hp is "more than enough for the road", thinks all German car interiors feel like the inside of rubbermaid bins with some fake wood trimming and is checking the panel gaps on every model in the showroom. Its very rare I can say this about a product but I am the target market for Lexus lol

How'd you like the GT86? I test drove one years ago when it was still a scion or whatever and I've always thought about getting one in the back of my head

Nice, I've fitted the PP brembos to my 86, alongside TRD engine/gearbox mounts, diff inserts and an oil cooler. Looking to get out on track next month with it. Did also buy a set of KW coilovers but I wanna see how well it works on the standard setup first before I start going down that route.

Funny thing with the brembo setup is that the rear rotor is specific to the 86/brz but the front is shared with a bunch of STi's and I found the brembo pn for them. Except the place i ordered them hosed up and sent me a set of front rotors that are the correct size but they were 5x114.3 rather than 5x100 so somehow they sent me a part that was one number off the one I wanted. Luckily I'm getting someone to re-drill these ones.

Also I like that every oe part I've ordered including the TRD bits has not had a single toyota logo on it, everythings been marked Subaru

Wow. I’ve got top hats, PP shocks and control arms but that’s it I am on the stock brakes with Endless pads.
