The 4-Day Transformation Of Our GR86 Build...

I swear, it doesn't even look like the same car anymore! Just four months ago, we received delivery on our brand new Toyota GR86. We had plans for it but there was a lot of waiting while we collected parts from Japan. It seemed like the project was never going to get started and then boom! All the parts just started coming in all at once! The goal was to get this car to both Wekfest events in California this year so we could showcase the brand new Exceed Japan aero kit for the GR86. As things usually go, the date came out of nowhere and we found ourselves with a short deadline...Just around 4-5 days in fact! So we got right to work and literally had this thing done just in time!
I present to you, the Battlecraft x Exceed Japan Toyota GR86, the first in the country to have the Exceed GR86 it! There's still much to do but the exterior, aesthetically, is exactly the way we envisioned it. The actual wheels for the car are still in a boat coming from Japan so these loaner TE37SL wheels will do for now. And yes, we changed the lug nuts after we filmed this! A huge thank you goes out to Yokohama Tire for always taking care of us and providing us with the opportunity to be one of the first in North America to run the Advan Neova AD09. We want nothing but the best for this car and I think it will show in the final results!

Amazing how the toms pulls it all together. Such a clean build.

[@Camsaccountname]

Car looks fantastic! Awesome work team

[@oh_emiko]

8 Years in so far & change of pace with the new 86 is something I'm looking forward to seeing alot more of 👌

[@1992calebw]

Very clean build. Nice change to see you build a newer platform. Looking forward to the next phase of the build.

[@Garthydude12]

That is such a nice build. Not over the top and just the right amount of mods, classy 🤘🔥

[@RealWheelDeal]

Very impressed with the additional plate and how its shaped from the Voltex Wing. You guys crushed it, wheels look perfect.

[@tomfum]

Looks really smart Joey. Its subtle not over the top, love it.

[@WayneBanga]

Looks amazing! Love the calming music!

[@sherwinyazzie9650]

Looks good simplicity is the best!!

[@garageoneeleven9728]

Damn so subtle but pure perfection! Looks amazing.

[@010720]

Thank you for mounting the tires correctly with the dots lined up to the valve stem

[@specialforceresident]

I just got my premium steel grey. This is the most cleanest one so far that ive seen. Simple and clean. I might do the same for mine!

[@epgonzalez1573]

Looks great!

[@duxz]

Very clean and tastefully done.

[@mochimajo5725]

This is literally my ideal look that I want mine to have! I love it.

[@danarq2558]

Looks amazing !!!

[@GianniAdduci]

The car looks amazing

[@TruREI]

Best I’ve seen so far🔥

[@Pharaoh_The_Great]

Yeah the GR86 is a great platform to have as a nice project. Hondas aren’t going anywhere so it’s cool to see something fresh and new for a change. 💯⛩🇯🇵🎋

[@albertramirez797]

Definitely looks awesome

[@ninjapizza07]

this is perfection

[@gryphon123456]

ThT wing is amazing!!!!😍

[@NeMayful]

Clean AF. Love it!

[@Villajesse]

Much respect for having a San Marcos blanket. Car looks great! Toms pieces were a nice touch .

[@THECHRONICLES]

Lol it’s ruined now

[@hzozafar]

One of the best looking wings out there, especially in its center mount option. Seamless upgrade. I was about to get one but decided that function wins over form. Unfortunately bolted doesn’t add much downforce. I’ll wait for Verus

[@Drew_HBK]

So so nice. Toyota did really well with this car.

[@Murphy252000]

Looks mint mate, props from Ireland buddy. I wanted one of these but holding out for a gr Yaris or the new type r, we shall see but if they are oos from the outset..... As usual please do more vids, love your stuff but I know it takes a lot as I have a few videos myself made. Thanks.....

[@maxf1856]

So clean waow. Baby Supra !!!

[@K1ngR3x]

I'll see you in San Jose!

[@noaaa444]

i want this build so badly for my car, this is amazing🔥

[@grecghenriquez3997]

My favorite 86 out there

[@tomstevens7452]

R&D gives you a pretty wide berth for an activity in the shop. Car looks good

[@eddiesti8840]

Definitely one of the nicest 86’s in the country. Subtle but nice.

[@tommycr-zsportcarssupercar2826]

Super Awesome GR86

[@gryphon123456]

For seats I would seriously look at the AMX performance seats. They make gorgeous seats.

[@angelopaolo]

Looks dope, I'm trying to get the same GR86 in white.

[@nuttylaurel312]

Insanely nice

[@lukekindred1999]

Damn I hope we do end up getting AD09's in the UK. Really really keen to try them

[@Diimelo_David]

Look amazing 🤩

[@cheex9861]

That voltex wing is just the icing on the cake sheeesh

[@reisen-5970]

God damn, I totally forgot about Wekfest San Jose lol I was too busy planning my family camping trip.

[@shimaspec]

TOM’s accessories look great 🤌🏽

[@reversecaoboy]

Damn that looks good

[@pablosimeonbeats7051]

Thats perfect 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@danielwood5510]

WOW! 😍 what are the specs of the TE's?

[@ks-mt7di]

Love the car. Although the wheels are borrowed do you might sharing the specs on the TE37s. Trying to get idea on what spec wheels i should run on my 86.

[@THECHRONICLES]

18x9.5 +40

[@ihsanulkamil1999]

awesome

[@noaaa444]

beautiful.

[@Pallidus_Rider]

Car would be a good fit for the new CA digital license plates 😎

[@theguywholikescars5359]

Wow that is beautiful. Makes me want to complete the whole TOM'S look on my gr86 and funny enough I got halo white as well. If you don't mind what are the specs on the TEs?

[@THECHRONICLES]

18x9.5 +40 I think lol

[@valensi1988]

Looks so good. I’m thinking about selling my S2000 for this one.

[@KiraOniiChan]

For the front bumper nose, does it come with the front plate mount? I live in AZ and we don't need a front so I don't want space there. Any chance do you know if they it without a front plate mount?

[@teamhonzilla]

Any Exceed product for GR Supra? Thanks

[@typeonegsr]

If you have an iPhone you can translate the instructions with the iPhones camera. Car looks sick 💯

[@sysofadown7213]

Any good engine performance mods ??

[@paramjotsingh259]

thats so tough gang

[@tommy_kaira733]

Joel When are you going back to Japan? ?

[@emersonviana6539]

[@THECHRONICLES]

Most likely!

[@maxymillion7480]

What exactly is a festival of Wek?

[@legokingiscool]

what dimensions are your wheels and coilovers? thanks

[@NoDayDreamZ]

How’s your visual with the wing in the back just got my new gr86 and thinking of putting a wing like that

[@THECHRONICLES]

Not bad at all actually.

[@rhkean]

The V may be a differentiation from the side mount version that they also make... Not sure

[@terrancemao402]

Do u know if the type 12 voltex wing fit on a 2013 86?

[@BlackyBrownDestruction9337]

This car looks way better than those new hondas, that's for sure!

[@estefano9e]

Don't like the new type R?

[@samleung4960]

Where did you buy the exceed japan front lip and side skirts from? Are they prepainted? Thanks!

[@THECHRONICLES]

Battlecraft is the exclusive distributor of this kit in North America. No it does not come prepainted.

[@adamjackson867]

I wish some one would make a wide body for 2006 volvo s60r I've see pictures but never find any company to sale 😕

[@jacobosullivan9277]

thank you for not adding a huge ass wing. ur 86 is clean

[@dippeeppeep5717]

Black makes black out. Can’t see any changes even after 4 days hard work. It’s ok as long as you like that.

[@THECHRONICLES]

Maybe you just don't know what you're looking at lol

[@dippeeppeep5717]

Actually you didn’t get it, sorry if I hurt your feelings. And I definitely know what I like.

[@scratchcardsandcollectible7455]

Wheel specs ?

[@pureroadster59]

Love everything but the wing

What size and offset are the wheels?

[@ramonbriones4487]

Just curious on what made u choose this platform?

cause it's fuckinnnn sicccccccccck

You should make a Christian How-To / DIY series

[@Kiret123]

is it me or are the GR86 wing mirrors massive!

[@THECHRONICLES]

They are lol

[@Kiret123]

@@THECHRONICLES as soon as you mentioned getting Craft Square, I clocked the oem mirrors looking like they'd been taken from a pickup truck or something

[@geralrodzlife4440]

Where's Yuta? He left the crew? Gr86 looks just fine 👌

[@jaycray]

Jesus Christ that looks good

[@THECHRONICLES]

You look good

[@SHELBYGT645]

I Was not a huge fan of the nose job piece but after with the lip and rest of add ons it looks pretty fire

[@THECHRONICLES]

We know what we are doing trust us lol

[@SHELBYGT645]

@@THECHRONICLES i know i know lol but they tried to do something similar like that to the 370z it was a nismo s-tune kit and it looked hideous very catfishy-y. but this flows awesome if i had a new 86 would def do this setup.

[@shanec8224]

I wonder what this would look like with a mini 4th gen Supra wing
