I dont plan on changing the rear section anytime soon but I will be getting a Verus rear diffuser so will need something that clears with minimal cutting. Downpipe and tune first tbh, and that would increase the sound a bit as well. I also like the brushed finish tip, while it's still clean :p ...
It's as simple as for example (just making numbers up for J29/G29 development)
1. Project manager and certification engineer dictates that no part of the vehicle may be below 60mm
2. Powertrain team determines 67mm exhaust pipe based on cross sectional area is insufficient for performance and...
I think it's safe to say you can get a 2.0 to at least 320hp with minimal effort, but because you mention the interest in lighter vehicle I suggest you do that first because it may change how you feel about the car and power. Carbon hood, lightweight racing seats, light weight wheels, single...
Just snatched a brand new 2023 3.0AT Stratosphere with 50kms on the clock from Jim Pattison Downtown Vancouver for 5k off MSRP! Delaying delivery to trailer it straight to PPF shop for full car protection, weather has been rough in Vancouver lately
EDIT: They also have a GR Corolla in stock for...
I suggest looking into removing both paddles. Then trim the steering wheel and epoxy in a switch like this used in some family car models. basically 2 switches in place of 1, you will need to figure out the wiring but usually they are just simple contact switches so you could just pin/wire the...
From what I gathered, near stock height is best because when Jackie Ding measured the rear toe change, the toe is pretty consistent until the extreme ends of the suspension travel (full compression and droop). It's fine if you lower it a bit if it's stiffened sufficiently as well.
I think R&T...
Tip, consider buying a new 2023 that's on the lots rn, plenty of AT ones, some dealers already giving discounts. For the normal 3.0 models, there's no difference between the 2023 and 24 in Canada apart from not being able to get yellow paint.
if you have to have that extra 10hp or so then i guess no filter, or can go for an over size filter (aka 800hp flow rated filter if you are making 650hp) and that would help negate losses to some extent
These were the wheels on the mule, off the shelf Braid wheels https://www.braid-wheels.com/en/bpf-02/P-1201?L2VuL3JvYWQtdHJhY2tkYXktL0YtMTQ4NjI=
I doubt they'll use them as I don't ever recall braid supplying wheel at an OEM level. But these wheels should be reflective of the dimensions and...
The whp numbers in NA are mostly uncorrected too hence the "whp". I think the difference between Aus and NA is most of the time different because of the popular dynos used in both regions. Dynos aren't as international as people think. It's mostly meant for calibration purposes anyways so it...
I got into the new G chassis BMWs with the same thought, eh it's an auto, and first impression was nothing, and then I remembered most AT cars bug me to some extent, so that ended up being a very good thing. I've never had to choose between MT and AT back in the day, what a great problem we are...
Great point, I think if we got the UK Pro 2.0 with LSD annnd a MT option I might be tempted too. Afterall, I had lots of fun in a GR86 MT. Jealous about your hair, I'm 26 and I have half as much hair as when I was 13, the math is not great?
I know the drill, don't worry too much about 2021's, 5w30, and don't always trust the sensor. Especially don't let Toyota change your level sensor if it goes kaput:p
Wow lot's of good inputs from experienced ex-MT owners here! Thanks everyone for sharing. I have been hesitant because it'll may be my first Auto car after owning 12 cars of which all are MT with exception of the one that has only one gear :p Seems like I have my answer a little more clear now...
Hi guys and gals,
I've been lurking around the forum every since the announcement of the MT Supra, and before you read more, it's about AT vs MT which one should I buy... And yes I have searched the forum about AT vs MT if not I've already seen it since I'm on here like 7x a day, I know what...

How many spacers did you use with you FLCA?
