I would not pay the same price I would for a brand new car when compared to a brand new car with paintwork no matter how high quality the paintwork is. It is never the same as when it comes painted from the factory. Walk away and start your search again. Don't let emotions about having to have...
I wouldn't go as far as saying "most" but I'm sure there are engine builders that would recommend it. The thing with the 2jz-gte is the age and mileage on most of them now. I wouldn't doubt that a lot of engine builders would recommend getting the internals redone at certain power levels but...
Lol, just cause......
Whatever decrease in rigidity, stress cracks, etc... that occurs with heat cycling the wheels during powdering coating isn't this big prevalent issue.... I've had 2 sets of forged wheels that I had powder coated and owned for over 3 years each without a single issue with...
If you are just putting in 94 with nothing else the ecu should make some minor adjustments regarding timing, not a tuner in the slightest but just based off experience with my FBO r35 and my past/current mkiv supra's, and you should see a few ponies more but it will be negligible without a...
Chances of them making 1000hp with the factory intercooler are slim to none. The question becomes is what are they going to come up with? A front mount? A V-mount maybe? :hmm:
Those are some impressive numbers with just a few modifications. liking what I'm seeing so far! Excited to see how much more can be squeezed out of the factory setup.
With some light weight wheels, titanium turbo back, lighter coil overs and light weight seats; this thing should be very very...
I hear your points but still don't agree that just because each generation of supra looked different so should this generation. The only reason for the rebirth of the supra is because of what the mk4 was and is. It would be different if Toyota had kept the ball rolling with a refreshed supra...
I really don't care one way or the other as looks are subjective. But, IMO, the predominant features of the new supra should have been primarily mk4 related with very very minor ques of prior supras and the GT if they had to be incorporated at all. If the pinnacle of the supra legacy ended with...
Lmao you sound like you have some feelings there. Did I upset you with bringing up the looks?
I personally don't care but was making a simple observation since they were parked next to each other. But since you brought it up, it should matter. The reason the mk5 "the legend" was "reborn" is...
Thanks for sharing!
Its hard to tell in pictures but I really don't see much of a resemblance other than maybe a bit in the hips and a bit in the design of the hood. How did it look for you in person?
Did they seem more closely related in the flesh?
^not so much about the general electronics and more about the actual pressure sensors inside the seats themselves. Only way you could keep your actual airbags working for the passanger side is if you rip apart your factory seat and remove the pressure sensors and install them to your new seats...
I would suggest looking at what other bmw owners have done for their newer cars in removing the error codes and see if it is something that is possible for the supra.
Keep in mind, the passenger airbag will not function and all you will be able to do is get rid of the error code on the...

Also if you search "Supras in Vegas 2019" facebook; a link to the event should be easily view able.
^I'm pretty sure he is implying that he will own the supra for a few years and then "might" trade it on a c8. I don't see any issue with that train of thought.
I think it would be pretty dumb to buy a supra now and then trade it in on a new c8 the second it comes out taking a huge depreciation...
Whats going on guys,
Was curious to know how many, if any of you guys, are planning to attend Supras in Vegas this year? I don't work for, nor am I affiliated with the organizers but wanted to spread the word and gauge the interest of new supra owners actually planning to attend the event...
