  1. Engineering Explained: B58 Engine

    If memory serves, the VR38DETT has one or two aftermarket cylinder sleeves available. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
  2. Engineering Explained: B58 Engine

    I'm more worried about the block. More specifically, the "spray on" cylinder liners. If you get a detonation event, bad enough to snap a ring land, then the bore liner is toast (and by extension the block). However, if there's enough meat between the water jackets and the bore, we might be able...
  3. Analysis, Comments & Reactions from the Web about the new Supra

    Blind faith is not always a good thing... that's how you get snatched up by Baba Yaga. LOL ;)
  4. The Development Story of the MKV Supra

    Good video @Guff. You did a great job of packing a lot of good info into the time that you used. Hopefully you won't get flooded with the typical "Buh buh... ITH NOT A THOOPRA!!!!!!" comments.
  5. Analysis, Comments & Reactions from the Web about the new Supra

    I agree with you on Chris Harris. However, even if I were on fire, I wouldn't care about Matt Farah's opinion, even it was about where the nearest fire extinguisher was at. I've spent a portion of my career in the manufacturing sector. Since then I have been fascinated by the way things are...
  6. Analysis, Comments & Reactions from the Web about the new Supra

    Nice piece of backyard psychoanalysis but... no. I've simply spent long enough following cars from concept to showroom to know what survives and what doesn't.
  7. Analysis, Comments & Reactions from the Web about the new Supra

    We all want a manual. But to sell 1 manual, Toyota is going to need to sell a whole bunch of automatics first.
  8. Analysis, Comments & Reactions from the Web about the new Supra

    The funny thing for me is that I did a 180 against the grain. I didn't like the FT-1 but I fancy the MKV a bit. I remember when a co-worker first showed me the FT-1, breathlessly exclaiming about how he was in love. I took one look and said "Whatever... nobody's gonna build that!" I then...
  9. Analysis, Comments & Reactions from the Web about the new Supra

    *I only quote you for posterity, since you have a tendency of going back and deleting your long-winded rants screeds posts... Anyway, doesn't sound like you're much of a fan... guess you'll be moving along now. Take care. :wave:
  10. Let's talk about Colors

    Yep. You can get any color you want... as long as you want black. Or black with read accents: https://www.supramkv.com/threads/take-a-look-at-the-interior-of-the-2020-supra.1502/
  11. Let's talk about Colors

    There's no sense in speculating, the color we are getting is the same as BMW's Mediterranean Blue.
  12. Let's talk about wheels

    I don't know anything about Rotiform, but I do know that I would never replace a forged wheel with a cast one. No matter how much i loved the styling.
  13. Let's talk about Colors

    These days most vendors only photograph the car in 1-3 colors and use image editing software to produce the other colors. This works OK for every color except blue. Blue has a significantly different index of refraction and light emissions rate than other colors in the visible spectrum. What...
  14. A90 Supra engines and parts diagrams (all) revealed!

    As of 1/28/19 it appears that all of the TMC Supra parts have been removed from RealOEM's database. :hmm:
  15. The Lexus LC500 & LC500h, Plus LC-F Talk

    Yep. There's an old expression in the military (and the space industry) that I'll paraphrase as: "...ounces add up to pounds, and pounds add up to a motherf*cker". This basically translates to: unless you're willing to save weight along every single step of the process, there's not much to be...
  16. 2020 Toyota GR Supra Photoshop Thread (based on production car)

    Though I very much respect the time and talent that went into this... I'm not nearly as enamored with the final result.
  17. Take a look at the interior of the 2020 Supra

    I just miss the days when you actually had interior color options to choose from. My '71 Datsun 510 came in 12 paint colors and 9 different interior colors. And that was for an entry level econobox.
