I have the Supra because people can have gas (ICE) cars and EVs and enjoy the benefits of both at the same time.
that misconception that Car enthusiasts HAVE to hate EVs or that EV lovers HAVE to hate ICE cars is not very sophisticated.
the Supra in the track, on a Sunday driving.
the...
oh. On this I do have a LOT of experience. I have owned 7 iterations of the Tesla car in 10 yrs and was part of the founders version of the model S. Currently there are 3 Teslas at home (and my Supra)
On the track, yes. They brakes over heat. I installed brake ventilation ducts and that...
I’m definitely including at least one Sebring weekend in 2025.
I’m going to try to do at least 6 - 8 weekends for next year. Not only is a lot of fun, but there is so much that I learn, not only about driving, but about the car and seeing people that have the same interest, but are so much...
That’s a boat load of money which is also something rarely gets talked about . What’s the toll on the car in terms of mechanic failure and need for repairs for three years worth of so many track days?
Is HOD divided into groups and with instructor for beginners?
I’m interested in getting instructed sessions for 2025. (Can’t find mention of it on the site)
You have to pull like crazy and the arm will lower enough.
the spring sits kind of awkwardly but with the car weight it looks perfect.
I helped a friend install and I was tired that day so I brought a spring compressor and it went in 10 seconds
For some reason, The more I’m concerned about hitting the curve, the more I do it.
it’s part of the battle scars of the car. Accumulate some and then get the wheels fixed.
Ha!
so that made the trick of getting power to the Mk3.
then I connected to it and downloaded the presets for the Supra, which got imported,
Etc
then I turned on the car and I’m not getting any channels to show data.
I confirmed and I’m tapping on yellow/black and Yellow/white twisted pair...
I had one fuse and took it out to show I was tapping the empty spot
THIS ???? is the incredibly stupid thing I was NOT doing
im sure is fine, but that would be the next step I for some Magical reason it does not work.
thanks!! ??
it was really awesome to get to know you and get some of that experience.
Riding shotgun on my car was an eye opener! (THANKS!!) I didn’t think a Supra could be driven THAT fast and sharp. Can’t even imagine how it should feel going all out on it! (That felt kind of all out to me tho)
this...
Ok. Here are my connections.
can wires tapped
Ground solid on same place as yours.
but here is the problem:
nothing in that upper right row gives me power
but if I tap anything on the bottom left row, any of the 5 slots will give me power (12.7v measured) and turn on the Mk3, however...
Oh well. I’m stuck in the first step.
found the CAN bus cables. Tapped them. Found the slot on the fuse panel. Added a circuit to it and added the ground.
I can’t get this to power the Mk3. No matter what combination of things I do, the only thing that powers the device is the OBD2...
