Any tips for personal removal? I have seen mixed recommendations online about needing to polish it off vs using something simple like alcohol. Probably going to do this at the end of the day. Wasn't even thinking that was an option, but that does sound like the best way to handle it.

I feel like I know the answer to this one before I ask it but I may as well. I just received a A91 knockoff spoiler from A90 shop after giving up on Automodz ever shipping or communicating with me again. I was supposed to have this in my hands and on the car months ago. My appointment for the...

Damn that sucks that they flaked out on you at the last minute. I can’t say from the five weekends at summit I have done I have had excessive bug debris but I get it. I would be down to hang out after Saturday but I think most of the other Supra owners are just a one day thing. So I can’t see...

There are about 10 Supra owners that are going to be at summit point this weekend for the NASA event. Myself and Deadinside too I know are going.

Summit main isn't the biggest course but 21 should be able to spread out pretty well on the 2 miles if people are good about giving point bys. If not, you can always pit in for a minute and let get away from the group. If I recall correctly I don't think there was a restriction on how you used...

Looks like drivers lists and schedules are out. about 21 drivers for HPDE1 and GR experience on Saturday, and 20 on Sunday. Interesting that one person opted to bring their Polestar 2 to the GE event. But I guess they didn't actually specify you had to bring your Toyota.

Ah gotcha, I reached out to NASA and paid them to extend it to both days. Never had something with this level of torque and power so I might sandbag it a bit and take it easy while I feel out the limits. As far as stuff to bring, don’t forget your tech sheet, did that one once before lol, make...

I will be there next weekend with you. Should be a good ol’ time. Have run Summit Main a few times in my Miata, did Shenandoah a bunch in both the Miata and my old Genesis Coupe. Would have preferred Shenandoah but main should be good for the stretching the legs in the first outing of the Supra...

TRD generally stands for Toyota Racing Development. Which was Toyota’s primary racing branch before Gazoo Racing. Most of their TRD brand stuff has moved over to the off road and truck parts now. But it kinda makes sense on a Supra I suppose.

I'll chime in here for a second just because I feel like there is an un-answered question. Chassis Ears are a set of surface microphones you can stick around a vehicle. They are normally wired into a central box the tech has in the car. Then they can switch between the different ones while...

99% of the time randomly pulling codes and hunting for problems when there is no CEL or drivability issues will just have you scratching your hear and running in circles. There would be an check engine light and serious problems if your sensors actually stopped working.

In case anyone shows up later and is curious, it can do this thanks to having both the VANOS and Valvetronic systems, although the Valvetronic is the only part that really matters. By having complete control over the valve lift the ECU/DME can use the opening, or not opening, of the valves to...

I forget the post on these forums, but someone had linked it previously and it does make for some interesting reading on the designs and decisions when making the B58. Even if it is mostly intended as marketing wankery. Luckily it was easy to find.

You could try this link, or google "BMW B58 Information PDF" and the first couple results should have the surface level information on the cooling system you are interested in. https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=1277450&d=1441950445

Where I live requires emissions inspections and I personally have been behind one too many de-catted cars and wouldn't do that to anyone unless this was a pure track/drag car.

Yeah it is one of those things I don't totally hate, but if I could tune the car I would almost be happy with leaving the power the same and removing them on throttle lift if I could. Leave them on downshifts, but keep me from going nuts when I am in some traffic and just tapping the throttle. I...

Only seen one other review/post about someone using this setup so I figured I would add to Apexracer's Review of the ARK exhaust. Just a bit to add as their post/review does a great job of covering all the important points. I personally went with the polished tips, I wanted a OEM+ look, and I...

Tuned or not I can somewhat correlate this issue. Haven’t spent too much time trying to nail down exact conditions or causes but I have noticed what I think is the same stutter. My only mods are an exhaust, no downpipe, and some wind deflectors. Sometimes on a cold start when I am sitting there...

I appreciate the offer, but I probably won't take you up on it. I already have a couple events booked up at Summit, one with the NASA membership, and one through TrackDaze. Dominion also was a little cramped on track for my tastes. That turn 3-4 right next to the wall always sketched me out. But...

That looks like Dominion Speedway. Have had my Miata and GenCoupe there a couple of times. Were you running with a group or was that one of their self hosted track day events?
