What did you do to your Supra today?

[Andrew4Supra]

Did You gain any camber after lowering? If so, how much front/rear?

~ I’m not sure what the original camber specs were prior to lowering the car .8”.

See current stats below.

Cool, thanks, was wondering if springs alone are good enough for -2 up front. What springs brand did U go for? I missed it...

Did an oil change. ~3.4k miles. Went with Liqui Moly 5w30 LL supertech.

Was super easy even though it feels weird not having a dipstick to check.

He went with the EURO Eibach Spec for the Z4. drops .8" all around

Threw on the CTS Turbo intake yesterday. That combined with the catless downpipe has added a good amount of rowdiness to the car.

My next step was going to be a JB4 but... I can barely put this power down as is. Is anyone running a tune also running stock tires..? Seems the factory tires aren't the most capable..

Very good choice, its what I used too. ??

Any idea how much oil you removed after 3400 miles.

I've been doing oil level checks periodically over the past few weeks. Always at max level. So it was completely "full" when I replaced.

I put in the 5.28 quart container, plus an additional 1 quart. Did the oil level check after driving for around for awhile. Still at max level.

I emptied the old oil out into the containers and came out just shy (maybe a third quart) of what I put in. But the gauge is telling me I'm good. So i'll just go with that.

Finally got my wheels on!

very nice wheel setup. Specs on the wheels please. I’m trying to decide if I wanna go 19’s or 20’s.

I flashed BM3 stage 2 on mine last night, the stock 275's are definitely way too narrow to handle that much power. I'll be going 275/285 or 285/295 (4S's).

I have to admit all the burning oil chatter has me a little paranoid. I check the level every time I return from a hot session. Its just so much fun to mash the gas. I’m at 1700 miles with zero issues. Hopefully that helps keep the rings sealing properly.

If ever it drops below max line I will know the exact mileage when it happened.

I'm in EU, so even better as its my go-to part
Did You cut bumpstops on those/did it came with fresh ones? Any clicking noise issues like some experience?

~ Yes I did trim my factory bump stops (one round section) front and rear. The euro eibachs do not come with dust boots or revised bump stops... you simply reuse the factory ones.

I’ve had zero issues with these springs (no noises whatsoever). They’ve been great and I have 600 miles on them thus far.

Getting these installed today! Yea bwoiii!

The springs are H&R. Didn't want to go too low but that fender gap needs to go.

 

[TheKrumpet]

Is your car lowered? I was able to reach the bolts just fine through the wheel well. Its a little tight but manageable

-RJM.

Yeah I was chimping out. Watched a YouTube video it's all "properly" installed now ??
