What did you do to your Supra today?

[Blaque Diamond Wheels]

A village where it starts to snow in October. I feel like I'm playing Trivial Pursuit.

Maybe a little too early, but I'm never ruling out its possibility

In California I'd be more worried about forest fires and earthquakes.. I use to live in Socal so I know the risks and headaches. Pretty area nonetheless.

I sold my Supra yesterday and got a 21’ IS350 F Sport. With that said I have a few items to sell if anyone is interested.
Rexpeed carbon fiber paddle extensions. I can supply the 3M tape = $50

American Panda Design nocturnal black emblems with tape already pre-installed = $100

I also have the whole factory air intake and OEM mats that were never used along with the O

Satin black center caps = $50

Put Tein spring silencers on my RS-R rear springs so the "spring slap" clunking would go away. I bet anyone who has rear clunking w/ lowering springs could solve it the same way.

Start at the top, put the silencers on every other "loop" of the progressive spring section. Four silencers per side. Done deal. Quiet as a church mouse.

Got my Seibon goodies today. Thanks to Josh from @Meraki Autoworks for getting this together. We're holding off on the install until the Ings+1 fenders are here. Need to make sure the skirts and hood all line up and fit correctly with the new fenders. Hopefully they are not too far behind.

Can you post a running total of expenses? I'm mostly curious. I keep one, and I'm sure you do.

I learned a long time ago to NEVER total up what you spend on a car...
Just makes you sick...haha..

I did it once for an e36 track car build and swore I'd never do it again....

Each state really has its pros and cons. Dry and temperate, sure. But you'll be dealing with those two that you said. Colder states might not have those, but you got snow and you might end up putting some cars to hibernation until spring

Yeah, at least we are on the right side of the pond! 900sq ft garage is good to have.

a little late but got wheels mounted this week.

What wheels are those? Link? Trying to find some good wheels in a white finish

Na - I like knowing where every penny of my money goes. I keep insanely detailed spreadsheets of every single cent I spent. On everything. Probably going back a decade now. Rarely is more than a dollar or two unaccounted for each year.

I should have been an accountant.

Damn. Y’all makin me feel lazy and cheap.

All I’ve done recently is wrap my headlights (light smoke).

put some A91 style vinyl on the sides. Not really sure if I like it or not yet. Idk. It just looks weird to me. Even on the a91s.

Detailed the hell out of it. Ceramic coated everything that could be. That took me all of 3 days ?

I’m TRYING to find regular Toyota emblems for the front and back. That gloss dome is just ugly IMO. I’ve heard the Camry and the Avalon ones fit but no confirmation yet. Might drive up to Toyota and ask them.

aside from that, I think my next purchase for the car will be one of those pretty custom steering wheels. I’m trying to stick to mods that do not void the warranty but the stock steering wheel is just annoying..

probably wrap or dip the bumpers black. Prob end up dipping. Easier to do. For me anyway.

a cheap one I plan on doing eventually is taking the subwoofers apart and putting some foam in them to get better bass. That should cost all of $20 bucks for the foam and about 2hrs to do.


I need to find a job so I can do more mods! ?

yea. Those wheels are gorgeous! Sure would look pretty on my Red. ?

There's no rush, the car is just fine out of the box

oh I completely agree. I honestly don’t think it needs any performance parts. Not for me anyway. My racing days are long gone. I just like getting to the speed limit faster than others. ?

I just like cosmetic mods. Make it a bit different than the other reds out there.

that steering wheel upgrade is a MUST though. I think my Lexus nx has a better steering wheel than my Supra. It just looks like they pulled it off of a Corolla and slapped it on the Supra.
