North America and Asia (Left hand drive market)

they come in 2.0T and a V6 3.8 NA.

Also comes in saloon/sedan with a V8 (380hp i believe), a friend of mine had one and someone rear ended him so he got a used coupe and transplanted the V8 into it!

Pretty nice cars, rear wheel drives, comes with LSD, brembo brakes, nice wheels etc

But they still a hyundai, will i buy one? Hell no!!

Here\'s the Kiwi Rhys Millen in his Genesis setting a world record!

that looks reasonably sedate and the brakes purposeful??? i dont see any stupid road going aero kit on here?

cool that it gets a 4pot rear set up... hehehe me wonders if given the subie 4 pots would go on these hubs - if we could snatch a pair of those calipers front and rear and slap em on our cars...

What size discs are those?

Brakes look good.

No idea on rotor size but those wheels/tyres are 225/40-18.

Wheels looked like Chinese knock-offs, not particularly well finished.

Tyres = middling Michelins.

No big doofus wing because this is the TRD pack, according to the official 86 brochure, the big wing belongs to the Aero Kit (non-TRD ?).

Confusing ?

swap out those rims for something nice and lightweight and slap on some sticker rubber and we\'d have a winner i reckon.

Brakes will be 300mm minimum id say if they\'ve gone up to an 18.. might even be 343mm or bigger.. those look really close to the rims. yummy.

That 86 is owned by Toyota here in palmy (i was told) for show off and as Newsuba said its only a TRD pack (front lip, side skirts, spoiler, rear diffuser, exhaust tips and big brakes kit) don\'t know if there\'s any interior changes!

I\'m pretty certain that the front rotors are 355mm (same as the Legacy STi and the RA-R) and those rotros only come as a 2 piece

Winner until you hit a straight and realise the car is rather disappointing in a straight line. About on par with the original 86 in pace! ;)

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
