What did you do to your Supra today?

[Diablo]

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.

@JZSupraMK5 Lowered on H&R springs doesn't rub anywhere and rides pretty much like factory suspension.
F: 19x9.5 +25 265/35-19
R: 19x10.5 +32 305/30-19

Thanks for the quick response...

Took apart and painted center caps in satin black, I like the no chrome look better.

Took her to FD ATL. Anyone else here? Found these two.

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!

Thank you for this. That is exactly what I was looking for from an owner's perspective. I will be getting an MT so it will be interesting to see how the drone gets eliminated through playing with the gears/rpm should I choose to go this route.

I agree it sounds the best from videos i've seen online. The only one I've seen other than this and RK Titaniums that I liked is a MVIV HKS single exit exhaust that was fabbed up for a MKV from Godzilla Raceworks.

If you're willing, could you please post or send me some videos both exterior and interior of your exhaust?

It will probably drone more in 6th gear with a manual, unfortunately.

MBRP exhaust w/ burnt tips:

How's the sound on the MBRP? I was really debating between MBRP, HKS and ARK. Ultimately went with the ARK DT-S exhaust system burnt tips.

Installed a new steering wheel from @NitroYellowMKV
Turned out soooo good. ?

Also snapped some exterior pics in the sunset.

Which car is yours? That 1st one, not my style but adds another Supra niche the Z4 just can’t fill. Poor BMW - coulda, shoulda, woulda (I’m sure they’re thinking we should have just made a hard top ourselves ?)

To this day whenever people drive my car the first thing they say is “Wow this steering wheel is Nice” Phil genuinely makes the best wheels for our cars IMO

Yeah I’ll post some videos when i get the chance no problem. Everyone kinda scared me about the drone on here but once i drove it i was like this not an issue lol. It’s only when you’re applying moderate throttle at 2k rpm does it happen, super limited circumstances imo. You’ll probably be revving it out higher with the stick anyways. The only thing i want to do is flash it for cold start reduction to be courteous to my neighbors! Bc the cold start is fairly loud but the warmed idle is pretty quiet.

Got the exhaust put on last night. Hit the dyno this morning too, but posting that in a different thread.
