Hello!
I am a Toyota enthusiast from Cincinnati. I've been lurking on this forum for over a year, but I'm excited to be getting involved now! I have a Raven 2016 FR-S that I love, and I would like to possibly organize Subie/Toyota meet-ups in Cincinnati in the future!

Hey FT86 fam :wave: . I'm new here and coming in with a white 2013 (June 13 mfg) FR-S with 76,000 that I just bought. I come from the land of DSMs and my 97 GST will probably see it's last winter here soon as it has 213,000+ miles now.

Been lurking and researching repair and service schedules, and have only been able to find and cobble together pieces from various posts. Found a great service schedule pic in Km from Tcoat to get me started. I'd love any suggested resources for new owners

Glad to be here. :rockon:

Welcome!
Service manual should be here. It's a sticky in the diy section.

The car is REAL easy to do basic maintenance on, other than spark plugs and other head related work.

Ohh perfect! That's exactly what I needed. THANK YOU! I've done everything on my GST from plugs, to clutch and flywheel, to oil pump. So I'm a little excited that my first actual project on this is going to be the TOB, lol. Heck I haven't even washed it yet.

The real learning with this will be RWD over FWD. From what I'm seeing around, we don't have to drain the transmission or differential fluids when dropping the tranny? Hooray!

There is also this which s a bit easier to maneuver through.

New here

Well I've been lurking for years and now just trying to figure out the mechanics for posting. Bought a 2013 FRS new and doing modifications now. Thankfully this place is great to see what others have done. Have to do a build thread once I get this posting thing down.

Hi everyone! Recently purchased a new Halo White 860. Been loving my mountain commute ever since! Looking forward to getting more resources on the car and meeting some fellow enthusiasts!

Btw - stripes or no stripes? Thinking about getting rid of mine.

Hi all of you fellow toyota dudes, wanted to say hi and share my first toyota with you all and hopefully another one here in the near future. No 86 in my driveway yet but I think a 2018 GT is in my future

Can't wait to get to know you all better and start having some fun with the other end of the toyota spectrum.
