I am 50 and I really don't try to put an age on cars. I have owned sports cars since I was 16 and to me it's more about how the car speaks to you. The Supra just checks all the boxes for me. It can feel refined and comfortable when it wants. And it can feel like a true sports car and be...

Well to be fair the CVT in the WRX is pretty poor compared to the ZF in the Supra, but I do agree with you that I think there would be a good market for a manual Supra. But it is surprising that about 70-80% of Toyota FR-S/86 sales are automatics and not manuals (while the BRZ is the opposite...

Yeah I have it on the most mild settings. It’s never been an issue. I think the tech is just being overly paranoid.

I recently installed Eibach Z4 lowering springs on my car (so just a less than an inch drop), and I found a recommended alignment shop with an advanced Hunter rack. The tech there told me that our cars have a radar/camera system that are based on the stock ride height. He told me that because I...

I went for a fun drive yesterday and woke up this morning to a flat tire. There was a screw dead center. Tire shop was able to plug it so I’m back in business.

oemaudio+ is great, I installed their system in my WRX. I would talk to them about replacing the stock speakers though as they have tuned their DSP and EQ specifically for the stock speakers.

In the opening where the 4” driver goes. I followed pretty much what Tada did in the link I provided in this thread.

It’s not made in a BMW plant, it’s made by a third party in Austria. I’m guessing the manual gearbox is not made by BMW directly either but by a third party supplier.

Installed some plug and play Eton speakers for the fronts (left+right+center) and also did some sound deadening. Much better :)

I wanted to upgrade the main (tweeters and front mid/woofer) speakers in the car and preferred a drop in plug and play solution. There are a number of options out there from Bavsound and Bimmertech. But in my reasearch I came across a German company called ”Eton” that is very popular in the...

Yeah I would not pay over MSRP, but compared to May when I first started looking new Surpa's are still very low. There used to be hundreds in the New England area. The other big advantage is buying one in winter from a dealer where it is cold and snow. Dealers know these cars will sit until...

“I did it again…”

Man I need this in my life. I just spent several days dealing with jackstands and jacks. The Supra is a little tricky to jack up too since it is low and the jackpoints are fairly hard to get to.

I only pay Paypal goods and services from private sellers. When a seller says they won't accept that form of payment I walk away.

My wife has a wireless charger in her vehicle and it acts the exact same (phone gets warm and it is really not a charger but more of a maintainer). I usually forget to put the phone on the charger in the Supra and it's in my pocket. Love wireless Carplay.

man that’s nice..

Z4 Eibach springs, Whiteline adjustable front swaybar and endlinks, SPL rear endlinks..

Finished the rears yesterday morning. So Z4 springs, Whiteline adjustable front sway bar and end links, SPL rear adjustable endlinks. These pics were right after install (I also have Burger 13mm fr, 15mm rear spacers), so I expect it to settle some more, then an alignment next week. Zero...

It's always been this way with cars dating back to the late 80's when I had an RX-7 and my friends had Mustangs, Camaros, etc. It's just worse now with keyboard warriors and the internet. People just feel the need to try to justify their purchase/decision by bashing others. There's nothing...

Especially with lots of other cars on the road. It only takes one random unmarked police vehicle and your screwed.
