So I raced my Supra for the first time today and I noticed that the engine started popping when I started braking, is this normal? I put a full tank of gas before so could it be I had too much fuel?
The popping wasn’t like bad or anything and I couldn’t test it further but it only happened when...
Thank you to everyone who took the time to read and reply! You guys helped me a ton and it’s awesome to see I’m not the only one who can be a bit overprotective! Not gonna worry about minor scratches and I’ll only buff out ones that are super noticeable so I’m starting to enjoy the car more and...
I got ceramic because I love the water beading affect and it does look pretty nice! It also wasn’t from the dealer I got it done at a detail shop. It gets really dusty here in WA and smokey so I think it’s actually a good idea to at least get a ceramic coating done if you aren’t going to PPF.
This helped me so much man thank you so much! My girlfriend said the same thing—at the end of the day ITS JUST A CAR. You’re driving around a piece of metal thats fast so enjoy it because they can always be fixed if damaged!!
Thank you so much! I figured it was a stupid question and to even modify body lines you’d need some heavy work done haha but I just get in my own head
I’ll definitely consider it! What about my other questions? Mind answering 3 and 4 whenever you have time so I get some more insight and feedback? :)
Thanks for all the replies everyone it’s making me feel a lot better! Also, the Toys R Us trailer I got for free as when they went out of business they didn’t need it so I just took it LOL.
And about getting PPF it’d be quite a lot for the entire car and I don’t want to spend that kind of cash...
The only scratch I currently have is just that one I uploaded! They did the pillars when I last went and those pics are the after! I don't see any swirls or anything I was just worried it was bad to buff/polish them but as I'm reading they're not coated at all and it's perfectly fine! Seems to...
That makes me feel so relieved that someone else gets scratches too! Thank you so much for taking the time to read/reply! Any input on questions 3 and 4 for me? :)
Here's the scratch I am referring to that is under the door handle! Does it look bad at all or does it look like it's super easy to buff/polish out? Can't feel it too much and it's smaller than the picture shows. About 1 inch.
Thank you so much I appreciate it so much!!! Yeah owning a car in WA is honestly such a pain like ALL the roads are bad it doesn't matter where you go. Bellevue, Tacoma, Auburn, Kent, Tukwila, etc.
100% ONLY hand washing it. I know the basics I researched A LOT and the detailers I go to hand wash it whenever I want for only $10 because my friends are really close with them!
Thank you for reading and for replying!!! Means a lot! I figured some questions were dumb asking I just literally go insane especially since this is the FIRST nice thing I've EVER bought myself. Like I said not sure where the scratches even came from but I'm just assuming they're inevitable if...
Also has anyone else gotten scratches on theirs/had to buff/polish them out? Want to know if I'm the only one haha. I'm super careful so I know it wasn't from another car it was definitely from a tree branch/branches. The car only has 700 miles. Maybe some could've been from rocks on the road...
Hey everyone! Let me start off by saying that I honestly don't know too much about cars and I am also the BIGGEST overthinker known to man and would love any opinions I can get so I can learn more! So the Supra has been my dream car since I was 6 years old and I finally bought one BRAND NEW 2...
