Congrats! How would you compare the Supra vs Cayman on your test drive?

Just wanted to update the thread with my experience. Dealer replaced the oil pump (15100-WAA03). Went in on the 16th of Sep, was ready on 2 Oct. Also had the comms module reflash done, so yay, new software throughout. Dealer said mine was the first one they had to replace the oil pump on...

Mine is getting done while the dealer replaces my oil pump. Curious to see if I end up with 519 or 530.

This is why we can’t have nice things. ? Put good oil in your car and enjoy it. Any plans to mod and/or track your new beast?

I go with Liqui-Moly, based off the opinion of my indie BMW shop.

There’s a loooong history of people debating oil choices on the forum. It’s rather taken on a life of its own at this point and become a source of joy/irritation/confusion all in one. That said, I totally agree - 5w40 is the way with this engine. Beautiful car - congrats and welcome!!

Just the AA downpipe and the stock exhaust sounds pretty good. Even better with aftermarket! Enjoy!

On Monday I’ll be dropping my 2021 off at the dealer to get the oil pump replaced. My ability to check the oil level has gone from frustratingly inconsistent to not working at all. My indie BMW shop scanned the car and it was reporting high oil pressure. 21k miles. Hoping they will “diagnose”...

But at least it’s a “real” Nissan…. ? In a world where 3rd party suppliers make all the components except the engine, subframe, and body panels - wtf does that even mean to the “loyalists”?

Send it as is. Have a good coach ride along for your first several track days. Catalyst and HANS next. Get lots more seat time. Start modding the car when your lap times have dropped and become consistent.

If you bed the new pads in aggressively, you should be good to go. You need to get them much hotter than most people think to do it right.

Every time a new oil thread is created, I lose a few brain cells. ?

Do you think it was from VSC braking the rears a lot?

Looks like a fun little track!

In the engine or on the brake pads?

Are you rocking the AT or the MT, Shane?

I now believe that hell is real. This thread means we’re all actually dead and in hell.

hold on. y’all are giving out advice and no one’s even asked what oil the OP runs.

There’s also the element of what your particular roads are like. On Pacific Northwest roads, I find the Supra’s two suspension modes to be very well judged. When I drove it to SFO, however, I wondered if I could live with it in that city. lol

That sounds like a pair of dream come true road trips in your Supra. Looking forward to any pics or video you may share.
