  1. Rant: Dealership Oil Change

    Aren't the free oil changes for 2 years from the date of purchase of a new Toyota? If you have a Supra older than a 2022, you're not qualified, right? Or am I missing something. By the way, a dealership in this county charges $80 for a quart of diff fluid.
  2. Anyone see any orange 45th anniversary Supras on the road?

    I'm very sorry to see this about your medical condition. My day of keeping a car for 20 years are over, also, given my age, but that's why I've rented so many amazing cars. Why limit driving experiences? But you really shouldn't get upset when some other owners don't think the same way you do...
  3. Anyone see any orange 45th anniversary Supras on the road?

    I remember a coworker telling me about the time he was selling his MR2 Turbo. After a month of not getting any interest, he added "bone stock" to his ad. The next day, his car was sold. The majority of sportscar buyers limit their mods so that they can easily bring the car back to stock....or...
  4. Anyone see any orange 45th anniversary Supras on the road?

    So your bet is that the 64 C2s are worth the same as the 63 split windows. You're on!?
  5. Anyone see any orange 45th anniversary Supras on the road?

    Many C2 owners thought that the "out of the ordinary" split window C2 would never be worth more, also. It took some years before they were proven wrong.
  6. Anyone see any orange 45th anniversary Supras on the road?

    Way back in 1963, the C2 Corvettes came from the factory with a split rear window. In 1964, that partition was eliminated. Many 1963 owners had their windows replaced to look like the 64-67 model years. The "split" windows never returned. However, the small block split window coupe's value rose...
  7. What is your ride height on MSS springs?

    Much better than stock!
  8. Keyes Toyota 45th manual transmission MSRP

    When I was searching in October/November, the average ADM was between $5k - $7k. That was getting lower when I found my car, but not MSRP.
  9. 2024 Supra possible diff leak

    I agree. Thanks, Phil. I sent you a more detailed explanation.
  10. What do you do for a living?

    Retired Mfg. Engineer but keep myself plenty busy with hobby business, volunteer tutoring, and local chapter of a professional organization.
  11. Parts Ordering Blues.

    Bryan, I sent you a message about the leak.
  12. 2024 Supra possible diff leak

    Confirmed - driver's side axle seal leak
  13. Parts Ordering Blues.

    It certainly is not just Toyota, and it's no coincidence that it's been happening since the pandemic. Some of it is due to the mass exodus of workers due to retirement. Teachers, nurses, and police officers also left their professions. My car sat at a dealership for 5 weeks before I pulled it...
  14. Windshield wiper knocking

    Just a few possibilities: Inspect the Blades: First, lift the wiper blades up off the glass of your vehicle to get a better angle for inspection. Look closely at the rubber section of the blades. Check for any cracks, tearing, or other damage. If you notice any signs of damage, it’s best to...
  15. Just got my MkV, after 10yrs of driving EVs

    Out of all the sportscars I've driven, the McLaren 570S Spider was the most impressive. That said, I must mention that my Supra seats are far more comfortable. And at 25% of the cost of the 570, the Supra is an amazing bargain.
  16. I designed a simple 3D printed Magsafe phone mount

    I was watching quite a few 3D printing evaluation videos (on youtube), a while back and they seemed to favor both the Prusa and Bamboo Labs' printers. The BL printers were more advanced with cameras and other advanced features that included much faster build speeds. The cost of BLs were close to...
  17. New owner… smoke and oil smell

    I agree with Phil. Having closure is very beneficial, especially when searching for similar issues and solutions. I have no conclusions regarding my diff leak which appears to be diminishing.
  18. I designed a simple 3D printed Magsafe phone mount

    For the majority of applications, ABS can be used between −20 and 80 °C (−4 and 176 °F), as its mechanical properties vary with temperature. Some plastics emit hazardous fumes when 3D-printed. When I do get a printer, it will have an enclosure - maybe Bamboo Labs
  19. Replacement wings for 45th anniversary edition?

    This is what I have on my side skirts. It looks great! I also have the clear STEK on the: front bumper headlight covers hood doors sideview mirrors
  20. Nissan Z vs Toyota Supra

    I noticed that the narrator mentioned that the Nismo differential had overheated and blew out fluid through its vent and onto the exhaust pipe. It looks like our diffs are not the only ones that act up.
