Wait, what? My dealer has told me the same thing about my '21 - that I'll likely get new pistons and rings - but I've been waiting almost a year for a fix and now have 22,000km on the car. Ugh, I'm nervous and need to stop reading the forum posts about this haha
Damn, this is a smart mod. I assume they'll feel similar to the magnetic paddles on my sim wheel, which are much firmer and snappier than the stock Supra paddles. I'm in.
Hey everyone, I've done a search and didn't find anything; sorry if this has been covered already.
Are there any Canadian Supra 2021 MY owners out there who have had their oil consumption issues fixed by Toyota Canada?
I've had my car for just over a year now and have 22,000km on it, and it...
To be honest, the dealer that's helping me with the oil issues isn't where I bought the car from - I live in a different town and they couldn't get me a car, so I found one about three hours away. They have been nothing but nice and helpful with oil changes (obviously want them to do it given...
My '21 drinks so much oil that I need to add a ton every 1,600km. Not only that, I've got 22,000km on my car after a year and have now been waiting for eight months for any sort of update or help from Toyota Canada and have heard nothing. Now my e-mails to the dealer are going unanswered. As...
Here’s my setup! Nothing crazy, just a NLR chassis, monitor stand, and seat, along with the usual Fanatec kit and a Chimera digital dash.
After humming and hawing over buying this stuff for years, I’ve had it for about six months and I wish I pulled the trigger a long time ago. I use iRacing...
It's a stone between that thin aluminum inner guard and the rotor, but all you need to do is push the guards inward by a few millimeters so there's just a touch more clearance between them and the rotors. It was happening all the time with my car - there's too much gravel on the road here - but...
3. For those who daily their car, how is it?
I've got over 16,000km on my '21 3L, a lot of it in gross, wet, sometimes frozen Canadian weather, and have done a handful of 2,000 - 4,000km road trips since I bought it last September. It's dinged, curbed, and been clipped, and I drive it like a...
Dude, mine is a rhd from Japan as well. I’ve seen lots of blue ones with white tops from there. Such a fun car!
Thanks for the tip on the dealer - I think I’ll go that route, but was mostly looking for an excuse to get something fancy that’d I end up breaking anyway haha
Ugh, I'm a dumbass and clipped my front-end on a curb during a 5am drive-thru trip while looking at my phone like an absolute idiot. It broke the left-side vertical element off and damaged a good portion of it, but the body is 100% fine. Driving from Vancouver down to Monterey, California, for...
This was happening to me all the time, and especially so after installing sticky tires. There’s a lot of gravel around here and I used to do the ol’ reverse, then forward thing, or go to the car wash and try to spray them out. I’ve had to pull a wheel a few times to clean out some persistent...
After the first month's glow died off a bit and I got on the track at Area 27, I found that while the car was fine for spirited driving, it definitely needed some changes to sort out the chronic understeer and body roll. This sort of ties in with my only real disappointment in the car (besides...
I am all for you getting those and uploading photos and telling us how awesome they are so that I can convince myself to also get a pair. They look incredible!
Have you seen the Recaro Pro Racer RMS in fiberglass (pictured above)? It was a Japan-only seat at one point, I was told, but it...
I use a Sea Sucker on both my old Mini and the Supra and have had zero issues. One thing to keep in mind is roof flex; the Mini’s tin can roof flexes too much and the suction cups can lose their grip sooner rather than later. This isn’t an issue on the Supra, though. I’ve carried DH bikes, trail...
Here's my '21 Supra with a square 18 x 10.5" Apex EC-7R (+13/15mm spacers) setup and new 275/18/40 Yoko all-seasons. I had the A052s on until the weather turned for the worse; we get a ton of standing water here and the A052S are as bad as you'd expect - this is much better. It's also on Ă–hlins...
Oh shit, really? I was wondering where the "heat" I mentioned came from, but now it all makes sense. Is that also what makes all the stinky smoke come out the back? ;)
It's still nice to see the things, especially if the things are fancy.
Wouldn't it be cool if we could see our fancy exhausts? Like how some supercars use different kinds of metal mesh at the rear to help release pressure build-up and heat. I've actually thought about buying someone's old stock bumper and some nicer metal mesh of some kind to see what I could come...
I like their diffuser, but I don't think it'll work with my Boost Logic exhaust. While I'll eventually pick up a diffuser that works with my exhaust, I'm more interested in finding a rear bumper that looks at least a little unique.
I'm looking for an interesting aftermarket rear bumper, but it appears that almost everything out there is basically the same shape as the stock bumper (or close to it) but made out of carbon fiber... So boring. Of course, it's much easier to manufacture a new product that mirrors an existing...
