  1. 2025 6MT - numerous bimmerlink errors. Am I making a $63,000 mistake?

    So what I know with my BMW s and other German cars .. battery voltage matters a lot. You have to reset the battery when it is lower vac otherwise it will throw random faults. So reset it now at 80% to see if some of them go away. Also, if you re-coded something that the computer doesn't like it...
  2. Blown rear tire: Looking for advice + Pressure sensors

    2k miles? You still have 7k left? I swapped a continentals to see if I get a little bit better tire wear and so far I don't have anything conclusive. The Continental 02s handle way better and corners where I used to slide I just stick. The pilot sports were a great tire but the Continentals give...
  3. It's been a good run 6 years with the MKV Supra....

    I think it's awesome your looking to change your ride and you have very valid points. I too, actually was looking at an M2, M240i, Supra or Hellcat. The M240i is the most practical of all the cars....in every point, except emotion and fun... (Wasn't looking for a practical car though in my...
  4. Better Solution for an Intake Duct

    VW does the same thing with the GTI's as far as interior sound. But a ram air will not be a problem with an air box. The supra air boxes have weap holes in the bottom to let water out and the water droplets drop out before turning and going up through the filter. The velocity would have to be...
  5. Homemade differential brace...

    Great diagram! Testing....I got to test in-between storms with cold tires....so not the best condition but worthy of testing still. First impressions: Smooth surface road...wheel hop pretty much gone. Uneven surface....wheel hop still but not as violent. Conclusion....need to brace front of...
  6. Homemade differential brace...

    Well thank you for my ignorance. I've been removing the plug and sucking out the fluid the entire time. I never realized you could pull the sensor out to drain it. Because I'm so used to doing it on all my BMWs I never thought any different. That will make it easier in the future. I will...
  7. Homemade differential brace...

    I actually need to take better pictures. I made sure I didn't block the differential plug for fluid changes. I wonder if anybody has measured with a decibel meter inside the vehicle with and without the damper to see if there's any difference in harmonics? Vibrations should come through as a...
  8. Homemade differential brace...

    And for what it's worth... I almost pre-ordered your bracket. I believe you have the nicest one on the market. And I'd be happy to have your logo on my car. I think you just should have added one more bolt on the opposite side but maybe it's not needed...
  9. Homemade differential brace...

    I had a few hours to kill between service calls on New Year's Day... And the Supra has been sitting, so I decided to tackle the task of bracing the differential. $18.XX from Lowe's, a can of black spray paint I already had and some scrap 2" 1/4" flat stock. Everything is welded solid including...
  10. 992.1 Carrera T thinking of Supra

    Congrats on the new purchase. Love the color. Supras eat back roads....it's the whole reason I bought one. You don't have to much with suspension to enjoy it. I run dampers on normal and use correct throttle inputs through corners....very little rear end issues. Only complaint is a tiny wiggle...
  11. CONTINENTAL EXTREME CONTACT DWS 06 plus

    I run these tire on all my cars and my families....very good overall. I have them on an Audi A3, a Bentley, BMW X3 and my brothers GR Corolla. They work extremely well in water. Very good in dry and exceptionally well in light snow. Ice is decent but they are not really an ice tire like a...
  12. Driving feel, excitement level of the Supra compared to other sports cars...

    Mk8 GTI for clarity....I just felt I could push it harder through the turns then the 06 Evo. Evo would destroy the GTI in a straight line and overall race. It really just comes down to driver feedback and security when at the limit. I've been in Lambos but the R8 my friends brother has it pretty...
  13. Driving feel, excitement level of the Supra compared to other sports cars...

    Expirence that I can remember.... 2019 Audi R8 v10 performance package Second or maybe first best handling. Handles like a GTI but on steroids. Never found the limit but I was afraid to...$250k was something I could never afford. 2018 Porsche Carrera 4 S Turbo 600whp probably first best...
  14. Better room with Cusco Harness bar

    I tried searching and could not come up with any real definitive answers....so with that being said, they must only be midgets among us! Im kidding of course. I installed the Cusco harness bar for more room and that's what i got. I'm 6'2' and about 260 lbs. I was comfortable in the car for...

  17. Better Solution for an Intake Duct

    The smooth surface of plastic is not a bad thing. Sign me up for an early prototype tester. I want to buy one. You come up with a fair price and say when
  18. 2025 oil consumption

    I have three vehicles with b58 engines. I have found to go ahead and change them hot so the oil drips out all the way and just put in a full 7 quarts. If you do that you'll never have a low oil message. If you try to get in the 6.7 to 6.9 q for some reason they always seem to pop up. Just my two...
