What did you do to your Supra today?

[obito]

Haha yea, I've always waved or said hi anytime I see a person in the same car as me. I've done this for all my sports cars, just a nice gesture. It's just unfortunate some car owners are rude haha

I do the same when any nice or cool car is out. Hypes me and other people up. Porsche guys couldn’t give a shit though

Finally got my wheels mounted up, pretty much at the plateau of my mods for this car for now. HKS intake and dual muffler exhaust, AA catted downpipe, Eibach Euro springs, TE37SLs with 305/30 265/30 tires, Verus AOS and turbo heatshield, Visconti tune, Blitz strut brace, Cusco rear power brace, few other cosmetic nick-nacks. It's my daily driver for now and I'm happy with the power it makes while maintaining reliability and driveability. Once I get one of my other projects to a reliable state I'll probably add a bigger turbo/cooling/etc. I may add a flex fuel kit next but I'm pretty happy with it after the Visconti tune and it already struggles with traction so not sure I'd be doing anything other than chasing numbers haha!

I'm mobile dyno'd sooo i don't know my true numbers IF they are true... but as far as MHD, it's solid, i'm tuned by Fabian @ Pureboost, legit tune and tuner too, i would recommend to anyone looking to get MHD..

I'm also tuned by Fabian over at Pureboost.DE. Good guy, easy to work with, and the tune is incredible.

Awesome... Think I'm going to go this route instead of the cloned ecu since I have a post June. I want to get as close to 500 as possible

I'm also custom tuned on MHD through Fabian at Pureboost. I'm custom tuned on E40 and the car runs and drives phenomenally and while I don't have my E40 dyno numbers, I have my MHD 93 Octane numbers, which were 443 WHP and 522 WTQ. With that 93 octane tune, my cars best 60-130 run was 10.3 seconds. With the E40 custom tune, my AVERAGE 60-130 is 8.3-8.5 seconds, and my best runs have been 8.1-8.0. So, it's considerably quicker. If I had to guess I would say the car is probably around the 500-510whp range atm.

Probably the biggest mod of all in the thread.
Used these to keep my phone in place

Thanks man! What all mods do you have done?

Acexxon rear reflector inserts and AMS anti-wind buffeting kit in gloss black installed!

I'm eyeing those rear reflector deletes, how difficult was the install and how is the fit?

Install wasn’t bad. Remove the 2 8mm bolts under the bumper so you can pull it back and see the innermost clip. Used pliers to pop that clip out, then you have enough leverage from the front of the reflector to pull it out.

My car didn’t want to let them go, so I bent a couple of the clips on the OEM reflectors. Overall fitment is solid!

Bumper stays on the vehicle? Can be done on a simple drive-on lift or a 2/4 post?

Yup, bumper stays on. My car is still stock but I had no issue crawling under it.

Changed out my rear brake pads today as I've put in 43k miles on the car. The fronts still have 40% left from the original factory and i was quite surprised that they had that much left. I also had to change out the sensor because well appreantly that too breaks while telling you change the pads.

I had no idea this technology existed as I've only older cars which didnt tell me that, or at least haven't told me yet. My quesiton is if i change the pads at 1,000 exact remaning can i possibly still svae the sensor or is it gone immediately? I know it's only 20-30 dollars but the pads already are expensive every dollar counts Can't believe pads are like 78 dollars for rear but 210 dollars for fronts. Maybe I'm a cheapskate but wow I didn't expect that one.

Thanks!

Yeah, I think you are. ~$330 for fronts & rears & sensors every ~50K miles (assuming that's about when your fronts will need it) seems dirt cheap to me. Then again, every consumable part that's less expensive than tires seems like a bargain on a sports car.

The fronts have much more material than the rears and are subjected to harsher conditions overall - although it's likely the cost is simply due to the fact that there are way more single pot setups than multi-pot calipers... so economies of scale will apply.
