What did you do to your Supra today?

[S2k]

Today I did absolutely nothing, but did get my snazzy FT-1 Concept die-cast model in the post

VrooOOOOOOM! ?

And…why didn't our cars come with the see through engine cover! ?

How. Much.

For what? The ebay GR badge?

No lol, the custom Supra badge you made. I would 100% buy one

Haven't really considered making another. Kind of a one off since I'm so busy. And it took me forever since I'm a perfectionist.

I'd buy one from you too. If you find a way to streamline it and make the process faster, maybe consider selling them. Might be a good little side hustle for you if the price is right.

True. I would have to refine the process for faster delivery. I already have a side gig that pays for all my toys on its own, no big need for another. Something like this to be done right would need the attention of someone like SupraMod. He could produce this, I’m sure of it.

Installed Rexpeed fourth brake light. I was able to do it without removing the bumper by removing the heat shield. I also routed the two wires (brake and light wire) through a rubber bump stop inside the trunk. The instructions said to wire into one of the brake lights but since it also acts as a turning signal, I wired it up to the third brake light underneath the headliner. This makes it for a cleaner wiring setup. Also wired the other wire into the fuse box as well. overall, I like it better than the stock oem. It gives it more functionality

My thoughts exactly!

One of the best pics of a MKV I've seen in regards to a straight on shot of the rear of the car. How are you liking your exhaust? Any excessive/annoying drone. Thinking of going SP1R myself. That or a RK Titanium. Just cant choose between the two.

Got my wheels painted in satin black Always loved the look of the launch edition wheels but we never got a similar thing in Australia so paint it is! Now to get some spacers...

All done! I think a catback install is harder, solo than a downpipe. If I can do it, anyone can! Took me ~90 minutes of being very careful. Separating from the exhaust was a little tricky. Also, lining the damn thing up with the turbo, by myself without the new gasket falling out! Barely
Louder at idle, but much louder under load. Love my exhaust more and more!

Any drone at cruising speed?

Overall, how’s the quality of the exhaust?

Don’t know why, but I have the AA Catted DP and it’s barely louder than stock. Almost not even noticeable.

Thanks! I love it, really livens up the car and pairs nicely to catted downpipe. It can be quiet in normal mode at low rpm’s but loud in sport. There is some drone around 2k rpm, but if you drive in sport you never really encounter it. In normal you can always downshift to 7th on highway to keep it out of drone. Even with the little drone i love it and would take it all day over stock exhaust, the general consensus is that SP1-R is best looking and sounding single exit, but that’s subjective. I say go for it!

Does anyone know what the fuse for the 12 volt socket Is?

Shaving a bunch of rubber off of my PSSs and learning Lime Rock Park with these guys.

Once upon a time, the Supra had a little wimpy flimsy piece of sheet metal that pretended to be a mighty heat shield. His heart was in the right place, but he simply was not up to task when his other half was removed with the OEM intake

Though he fought the good fight against intake air temperatures, he knew that he just wasn’t strong enough. He voluntarily vacated his spot.

Well what do we have here? Hello gorgeous catless Downpipe! My how your appearance has morphed into these wonderful colors! God bless glorious heat cycling!

Mr. Strong Motorsport grade steel heat shield decided to pick up the slack and flex his muscles! He knew that he was up to the task, was happy to help Mr. Flimsy out, AND if you look closely you can even see that he was resurrected and reused with Mr. Strong! WHAT A GLORIOUS FRIENDSHIP! Thanks Verus Engineering! Mr. Supra is now ready to enjoy cooler IATs with the upcoming summer months!

And that, my lads, concludes our story of the day! Now, I’m ready for a cold fackin lunch beer ?!

Thanks to @Timmy23 for the heat shield!

well yesterday not today

Will say the Garmin is pretty cool. I mostly run with out timers unless doing time trials. Most of my lines come from my butt and feeling out a track and where the car wants to bind up, push, etc.
But i can see the easily where i can shave over a second at this particular track. And I don't have much seat here at all.
