When it comes to upgrades for the Toyota GR-86, and the Subaru BRZ many people focus on the wheels, exhausts, and coilovers. These are important, and give you the ride that you dream of, however many upgrades end up being ignored. These two sports cars are known for their exceptional styling, handling, and power, and it is for these reasons that the upgrades we will recommend today will revolutionize your vehicle in major ways even though they are highly underrated. Here are the top 5 budget-friendly and underrated upgrades that will elevate your Toyota GR-86 or Subaru BRZ to the next level.

1. Competition Paddle Shifters

For just $250, you can get these AutoTecknic Competition Steering Shift Paddles for your Toyota GR86 and Subaru BRZ 2022. These paddle shifters deliver nothing but the best in performance and style. These paddle shifters are easy to install and will help you achieve maximum speed while maintaining the utmost safety, control, and comfort. In addition to that these paddles are 40% larger than the OEM version which allows for easier shifting and greater precision, and being the perfect match to your steering wheel’s contours, you’ll enjoy unparalleled feedback for perfect shifts every time.

Fitment:

  • Subaru BRZ 2022+
  • Toyota GR86 2022+

2. Upgraded Shift Knob

Apart from being budget-friendly, a shift knob upgrade is the best one to do for aesthetics purposes. Due to age and use, your shift knob might be the worst-looking part and that’s why it is important to upgrade it. In addition to that the shift knobs in our shop come in different shapes, styles, and colors to suit your car’s interior or your eccentric taste, or both. Performance shifters also offer better grip for sportier driving. A grippier, sportier, and more precise shift knob can actually help you perfect your heel-toe downshifts. Not to mention aftermarket shift knobs look better than stock ones, click the link below to see for yourself.

3. Carbon Interior Trim

We have interior trim parts from several brands you can trust. When it comes to car upgrades, most guys will spend all the time painting the most perfect piece, then sit behind the wheel with misplaced dash knobs, bent locks, twisted door handles, and taped sitting cushions. After upgrading your car’s exterior, it is also a very good feeling to sit inside comfortably inside your car, we have parts to make that happen including dash knobs, dash bugs, gauges, heater, A/C controls, pedal pads, sunscreens, move boots, and much more. If you think the interior panels of your vehicle should look better, you should try out our interior trim kits by clicking the link below.

4. Upgraded Brake Master Cylinder Cap

For an affordable price of $43.95, you can cover the lackluster yellow plastic cap with an anodized piece of aluminum that is US-made. The cap is easy to install, as it can be installed without tools and clips onto the factory unit without the need for double-sided tape.
