What did you do to your Supra today?

I hate to say it, but Phil's right this time. As long as the locks are out it's fine

Well not really. The Supra has a 50/50 weight distribution. The jacks can go either way.

True but is that with or without a driver? Info I'm finding is it's still front heavy, 3.0, with no one inside vs 2.0

Well I guess if you want to get pedantic about it you can always ask your wife or partner to hop in the trunk while you jack it and work on the car. Add a thermos of coffee and some sandwiches and a pillow for the longer jobs. Shouldn't be an issue with the hours and hours people spend on their mobile phones these days

Bought quick jacks. Don’t fit under car. Comes with a large and small pad. Small pad won’t clear. Anyone buy the low profile ones?? Only on Whiteline springs. Not super low - it’s barely hitting by like 1/8”

I would just park on some plywood or 1x8 board. With the Supra the low pro blocks should be okay becuase the plastic jack points hang down a bit. But with other cars the side sill or plastic trays will hit the frame of the quickjack before the lift point/pinch weld touches the block.

If the tip diameter is the same as the HKS, you should be fine. That was my main concern before I installed mine.

I’ve never had the pleasure of hearing the mythical rock betwixt caliper and heat shield. Thought I blew the car up it was so loud and heinous. Pulled the wheel and found this little fucker wedged in there.

Amazing how something so small can make a noise that bad and loud, isn’t it?

I hadnt heard the noise before and thought something was really wrong.

Alignment check (It's the best speed shop in the area so why even bother getting a sheet?)

Oil change, and rotors. Working with Vredstein tires this week for some demo laps at AMP.

Is that sort of a Firefly quote?

20x9.5 +22

I saw a similar car to mine in their gallery with the same wheels I wanted, got the specs and worked with them to order.
