0 sadly. After wrecking it late in the 2023 season, it took me many months and many $ to get it repaired. After getting it back I just wanted to enjoy it on the street and not risk losing it again. May give it another go next season.
My only advice is to take her easy and don't push too hard, especially as you gain confidence. It's not worth the cost or the emotional damage if you put it in the wall. Don't ask me how I know.
Y'all are mucking up the thread/issue talking about iMT and anti-stall. This has nothing to do with iMT (auto rev-matching), as it occurs with that turned off . It's also not about the anti-stall (i.e. automatically opening throttle when lifting clutch even if not pressing accelerator pedal)...
Agreed. If I had a paid off M2 I would be happy with it and keep it, and if I had a paid off Supra I would do the same. Don't think the grass is greener on either side of this fence unless there is something you specifically like/dislike about one or the other.
He is saying that Toyota is losing money on each car sold, so they have reduced production of the car to reduce their losses while still getting the marketing benefits for the brand. It's a little counterintuitive because normally there are economies of scale, but it's possible that the nature...
For awareness, the ease of getting the front pads out seems to vary greatly, probably depending on how long you have had them in there or how hot you got them. Some people have no issue, but the first time I tried to swap mine for track pads after ~1500 miles they were a nightmare to get out. I...
Why wouldn't they under the circumstances? If it happens when you used Bimmercode to code out auto start/stop and doesn't happen when you went back to stock, that's pretty strong evidence. The fact that it doesn't happen when you deactivate auto start/stop normally is further evidence that...
Booooooo! As someone who hasn't done the CDV delete yet, I've found the best approach is to smoothly let out the clutch (don't dump it) and feather in some throttle during the last couple inches of travel. Don't want to ride the clutch obviously, but I find that a little bit of slip helps smooth...
Probably a lost cause to try to get this thread somewhat back on track, but my car has been in the shop for 2 months and unclear when it will be out. I asked them to put it on a tender a while ago, but now I'm more concerned about the fuel. Is it worth it to ask them to put some stabilizer in it...
I was very close to being in this position and was going through the same thought process. Fortunately, mine was not totaled ($30K of work though). I think if I did have to replace it, I would look at a CT4-V Blackwing, Camaro SS 1LE, or maybe a F87 M2. I still would rather have a MT Supra over...
Only somewhat surprising things to me are how quickly the Dark Horse stops (given how heavy it is, must be massive brakes and big, sticky tires) and how slow the Type R is (wouldn't have expected it to be so far behind the Golf R and Elantra N).
I've only gotten the Supra up to 140 or so, but I...
I'll be at the NASA event at Summit Point this weekend. Technically not part of the GR group as I already used my freebie, but I'll be running with them (and all the GR86/Corolla traffic) in HPDE1. Red car #84 if anyone wants to come say hi.
Thanks for confirming what I was thinking after @LowRoller 's comments. It seems like the damping in the rear is maybe not quite as buttoned-up as the front, so it is more easily unsettled by bumps than the front, leading to oversteer if you are on the limit and hit a bump. I could see how that...
This struck me as one of the few reasonable and even-keeled responses in this whole thread, so thanks for that.
Can you (or someone) help me understand what people mean when they say the Supra is too soft in the rear and that is leading to oversteer/instability? I thought the conventional...
