What did you do to your Supra today?

[JRedMKV]

If only I could just get a real tune without russia and several thousand dollars :/

Also - I've always been a jackstand guy but man it's starting to hurt crawling around on my back on the concrete. Can't do it like I could when I was 18 lol

Nothing like having your skull wedged between a frame rail and the ground knowing your harbor freight jackstand could theoretically murder you at any given second

Exactly. I’m with you there. Of course we’ve ALL used regular old jacks and jackstands at some point in our car building lives. Nothing against them and I still use them, just depends on the job. But damn it’s nice having a QuickJack and be able to comfortably get under my entire car without any worry at all that it would fail me and crush me. Plus having roughly 2 feet of space to work while under there is just nice. I’m sure if price wasn’t a factor we’d all love to have one or some kind of car lift in our garages. I’m older now as well and I feel it after working on my car so it’s just nice being able to work on the car this way.

Finally after 3 months rear spoiler arrived, now i'm almost done with appearance mods, still undecided on wheels, Powder coat stock wheels? Gloss Black/Satin Black/Matte Black, or new wheels, thoughts suggestions??? No performance mods yet, will probably wait a year or so after warranty is about to expire.

@RaiderRome where did you get that red volume knob? I've ordered different sets from eBay and all the a/c knobs fit but they were all too small for the one in the Supra.

Nothing exciting since my car is in hibernation, but pressured up my ModernSpare spare tire and rotated it in its carrying bag to ensure it does not generate a flat spot while in storage in my garage.

And routed a new ethernet cable from the server room in the basement to the garage wall for new wifi hardware that is getting installed this week.

I did satin, but I'm finally wheel shopping now that performance mods are nearly done. Lovin your build.

actually leaning toward satin black, since it's between flat and glossy, at least until the budget allows for new wheels, thanks for the compliment

I feel like I have arrived. Just got my quick jack all set up and primed. Has to be one of the best investments I've made in years.

I went gloss black with my stock wheels, but with the brake dust, they look satin most of the time. I've also got some satin black TS-5s, which will be my summer wheels, while the OEM wheels will have the all-seasons for winter.

You can get the whole set on Aliexpress for a couple of bucks.

Yeah, but most of them are for various BMW models. Only a few fit the Supra and I haven't found one...yet.

I gave the Supra some love this weekend. Full wash and wax and a complete interior detail. It looks new again! Also, somehow, I managed to get a season pass to this years race series. Tickets sell out in seconds and its 100% luck of the draw. Apparently today was my lucky day! I finally get to do 12 races this year without having to be on a wait list for tickets and hope I get in.

@Msoupe - am I going to see you out there this year? I know you have snuck in a few nice mods that I am sure you want to test out.

Shipped her off to Seattle ahead of my arrival.
