What did you do to your Supra today?

[Scoopra]

That's my damn fear and luck that I would break something.

It's actually really easy if you study first. Look at pics of the inside of the wheel. You have to push straight on the spring to move the prongs that hold the airbag on.

might be easier to start on the right side of the wheel to release the two tabs then switch over to the left for the last one.

don't worry, if you grind away the plastic that holds down the spring in your attempts, Optimusprimerib can show you how to rebuild it with jbweld.

Got screwed.

At least it was a Robertson.

Must be painful. Tyre has broken out in a sweat.

This was actually done a while ago but I saw @O_B_S's post and thought I'd chime in and also throw my support behind the wheels supplied by @NitroYellowMKV. From the drivers seat they visually lift the quality of the interior way more than I expected. The impact on steering feel is substantial. To the point where I'd consider this a near essential mod.

Also considered the BMW wheel swaps but there seemed to be a few to many trade offs with reduced functionality and recently there appears that there may be some other issues with maintenance. The large OEM airbag doesn't look so bulky once the wheel rim is better proportioned.

Went for the classy/OEM+ look with all leather rim, stitching and centre line that matches the seats, flat bottom and minimal thumb cutouts. Ignore the marks, that's just post install cleaning product residue.

Same happened to me yesterday. Tires were only a couple months old.

Wheels came in. Too bad they ordered the wrong ones. Nothing like waiting 9months for nothing.
First world problems i know lol

If they can even get the wheels still, as they were suppose to be the 30th anniversary edition which orders ended in Dec for them. BBS USA is gunna see if they can convince Japan to make 1 more set but yeah delivery time would be 6-9months again

Had a similar thing happen with my Works - took 9-12 months to get em, fronts didn't fit, took another 4-6 to get the replacement fronts, had to pay import duty twice on the fronts, and then get the CBSA to refund the duty on the original fronts that were sent back!...

Thank you for the kind words! Wheel came out awesome!

Source for the wheel? Love how the thumb cutouts aren’t too pronounced.

One of mine!

 

[BrettS]

Good luck !!

Ohh it keeps getting worse. Talking to bbs USA, they didn’t see the order till January of this year, which is why they didn’t even question the color as it was months after we had spoken. So either the shop didn’t order then when I paid for them, or the distro dropped the ball. Funny enough January was when I asked for an update on where they were.

Received my DME back from Femto via Garahe Whifbitz in uk. Was super fast service, so bought my BM3 license today and within 5 mins I had downloaded a stage 1 flash from my iPhone and was hammering down the road. What an epic upgrade. For a ‘no mods’ map and just my intake and catback exhaust the car really came alive. I said wasn’t going to tune it…. Now I’m thinking of a turbo upgrade and charge cooler ????
