Hey all,
I need to get a quote for OEM passenger side skirt and one of the jack point plastic pieces, doing quick googling I can't even find a site for official part #s, let alone a method to purchase. I checked the forums search and still nothing, what do you use to get part #s and where would...
Ah yea fair, I've never driven a mid engine vehicle so I don't consider them special but to some people they likely are. Going above the MKV in price would be crazy, but if it was using the GR yaris motor or hybrid or fully EV, I'd pay that price
I'd hope the next MR2 is Hybrid or Fully electric personally, if it's gas why make that over a GR86? Instant power delivery in a small platform (or MKV Supra sized) is such a wet dream of mine, I'll trade in the supra for an electric miata / brz / mr2 / s2000 / many other small platforms, very...
So if you're buying right now, you're either going to pay in one of 3 ways I've noticed:
1. Buy from a dealer TODAY - you pay a dealer markup
2. Waitlist from a dealer, get the car in 3-6 months - you pay with time
3. Buy a good example of a used one now, you pay MSRP potentially (In my case I...
I'd get one of the stickers even if it cost a decent bit for shipping, TRD doesn't make sense to me since this is supposedly a GR car. Is it an M car? I think combining BMW and GR makes more sense than throwing in TRD or M division, but thats nitpicking.
If you're interested in a low effort...
Bimmercoded to start in sport individual:
Sport individual: all sport except damping. Sometimes I turn steering to normal.
Normal mode the smallest amount of time when on boring boring commutes, might even turn on auto engine start stop
Sport+ for fucking around, w/ traction mode if racing...
BRZ was more fun in more corners daily, but wasn't ever comfortable or relaxing. I daily the supra and love things like the quieter ride, more tech, and mainly adaptive cruise. I only have fun for a few seconds at a time when I find cloverleafs or onramps. If you care for comfort the ND or BRZ...
Massive props to all the daily drivers, no matter the miles you put down each day!
Sad but true
Lmao you still daily, give yourself some credit. Plus look at it this way, I bought my car with 11k miles, previous owner was in SD and dailied, since taking ownership of the car I have lowered...
Get a helper to hold the trunk up (and jiggle a bit when installing / removing)
Flathead screwdriver to the existing clips backside to pull them off
Unscrew new lifts and install springs
Use ez lock lever to install new lifts with springs, this is where having the helper jiggle is important
If...
This setup with the alternate springs works. When using the alternate smaller springs you'll have to use 4 of them, I tried 2 and it's not enough. The trunk is now hard to close, and you can't use the internal handles, so I'm now using the top of the trunk to close it, not ideal, but worth it. I...
I get some holler, mostly all positive, when I went to an amusement park several people yelled out compliments lol, the car brings attention, luckily not too much attention.
that things primary function is phone heating (I wonder if this is due to the cell extender we supposedly have and not charging), and yea kinda useless when trying to use google maps / torque
I know for sure that the emergency braking systems engage (and on a lower threshold trigger the warnings) based off the rate you are approaching an obstacle. I've had regular front collision warning trigger both at 5mph and at 80mph simply because the rate I was approaching the vehicle in front...
