Hey George. Would you mind sharing your thoughts on the driving results after your PTuning alignment? Is it something you'd recommend?

Thanks!

I really haven't had the time to drive much, however in the little I have done the car is much much better IMO the rear doesn't move around like it did before, feels more stable at higher speeds in a straight line also.

If you think it's great now, just wait when you sink in $2k on sway bars and SPL parts and labor. *cries*

Hello everyone, I have been on this forum for about two months now and have now finally have time to post my A90 Supra!

It's been in and out of shops getting some type of work done so that's why I've never had the chance to really take pictures of my car and introduce myself. My names Sophia and I live in Orange County! Today marks two months since I bought my Supra from Toyota of San Bernardino. I bought it from there because family discount! :D

First mod I did was VRSF downpipes at 800 miles. I couldn't wait for the "break in" period. And have gotten two oil changes once it hit 1500 miles.

Then I got my car lowered on KW V3 Coilovers by Exotics Tuning in San Gabriel Valley. Andrew the owner has been one of the only shops I trusted after being to a few shops with my previous cars... Honesty is key.

Then I got custom TE37s, 1 of 2 sets ever made in this certain specs and color. I will let you know my specs but not my bolt pattern ;)

My car was at Everlasting Wraps in Orange for about 3 weeks to get a whole new color. Jose the owner spent some time but that's because he made sure everything was perfect. He is super picky and will redo something if it's not up to par. Good things takes time, don't rush it!

This is how my car currently looks and sit.

Yes I know, it's very loud but when it's in the shade its a satin grey finish. I was never the type to get something "normal" that's why I didn't get another bmw or mercedes. No girl drives a Supra so I wanted to test this car out myself!

I will be installing the tune soon and taking it to Buttonwillow soon!

I can go on and on about the progress of build but it's best if you subscribe to my youtube channel instead.

Can't wait until I am happy with how my car finally sits and take it out but lets be honest.... the mod bug never stops.

Can't wait to meet all of you guys!

I do my own labor at least, have done a few sets of bars and coilovers over the years on different cars it does add up.

Just FYI, the rear sway bar and upper rear lateral end links does require a subframe drop of the rear. Ask me how I know.
