Is it necessary to do a tune if I want to run a catted DP only?
I know that on other cars I've owned there was concern about running lean due to exhaust upgrades on stock ecu's
So then the OE wheels are pretty good? I have been looking at aftermarket rims but most are cast or flow formed, which is basically just cast + some rolling of the main cylinder of the wheel... Forged aftermarket are pricey $$$
From what I understand, Forged is generally considered the...
Do you guys have any pics on what the inside of the seat looks like? I really hate how the head rest forces my head to tilt downwards.
It looks like it's removable, and been looking for a replacement headrest. Seat frame is shared with BMW Z4, x2, x1, mini cooper clubman, but all those head...
I'm also coming from a long series of MT and was worried about the AT only Supra, but since it's my DD and I wind up stuck in traffic a lot, the ACC and auto modes are great.
The ZF 8HP is nothing like the horrible auto slush boxes that many other cars have. It's crisp in sport mode, and...
Yeah I guess I have long legs is the problem and I like them to be stretched out for better control on the pedals. Think formula car style where your knees are only slightly bent.
But that puts the seat back in a nearly bolt upright position, where every bump hurts when you have back problems...
Hmmm maybe the brackets are strong enough for a harness bar after all...

Although it's almost like Toyota put this here so that the aftermarket could add a harness bar easily... I...
Popped the trim pieces back in (including the little hoop that goes around the bar to keep the other two parts from rattling against each other):

The bar in question: thin walled extruded aluminum tube:

Ah, finally a Toyota branded part in the car:

A single Torx T-50 driver (with a universal joint and extension if you want to get fancy) on either side is all it takes, and I'd say it wasn't torqued to more than 10-15 ft-lbs. Came loose much more easily...
Threw out the back again. Needed to recline more, but the stupid aluminum brace going across the trunk opening wouldn't allow it.
Guess what? It's most likely not a brace at all. It's probably only Cosmetic and is easily removed.
tl:dr: Remove aluminum cross bar piece, gain 2 inches of...
