Got an idea how that happened in that first picture? Assuming just hard track use that sheared the connection and let it rotate. Also what part is that?
I looked you up on the region page to make sure you were who I thought you were since we've never 'officially' met and just in passing seen each other. Yes I'm running 18's. Enkei GTC02 18x9 +25 for front and 18x10 +35 for rear. OEM specs are 19x9 +32 and 19x10 +40 so its within the 1" width and...
You'll recognize my car from pics in my posts. Glad to see you moved to a supra. You'll have to figure out where you want to compromise or not. Build XA for track and just have fun in autox, or build for B-Street autox and sacrifice maximizing track performance. To put it into perspective, I...
The other guys already answered the other stuff so about dates, for you it probably doesn't matter. Go with whatever fits your schedule best. For guys in the high levels, they would prefer cooler weather so they can push the cars more. April will probably be in the 60s and May in the 70s. I...
I've had fronts on order since 11/6 and they are not shipped yet. They said 3-4 weeks on the day I ordered and they still haven't shipped. I'm not in a rush for them but I don't think they're in stock.
Charge it back through paypal. If you paid friends and family you're screwed. There's literally no reason to buy from an instagram account, chalk it up to a lesson learned. I luckily learned all that when I was in middle school with runescape and I've been skeptical ever since. I reverse google...
Two track days on these (1 wet, 1 dry) and about 1000 street miles. I used them as an in between pad until some others came in. I didn't like they way they dusted so I ended up buying another OEM set to use until my backorder set comes in.
$60 shipped anywhere in the US.
Yup it's 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch tape from Amazon. I did 1/2 inch on mirrors, front lip, side skirts, and the two small vertical stripes on the diffuser. The rest is 1/4 inch. Tip for the long straight portions is to put down one point and then touch down the farthest point and pull it semi-tight...
I always love seeing people looking to get into performance driving. It sounds like you're in the beginning steps and haven't done any yet so money is better spent on seat time before upgrades. Stock pads will not hold you back in autocross. All my local pro Supra drivers who are national...
Finally used up the tires that came with the wheels I bought off another forum member. Really glad to go back to 35 sidewalls and also upgrade to PS4S. A new 7/11 is being built right down the road from work and they're pretty much finished. They haven't opened so nobody is there by the time I...
Really awesome, I've got a much clearer picture of the custom fab and how you routed everything. I was a little unsure of what you were doing in a few places until now. Definitely looks very replicable if you have the means to do metal fabrication and welding. Very nicely done.
I don't keep up...
I don't remember what I did with all the extra wire. I think I either zip tied it to places behind the bumper or wrapped it around the impact bar until there was just enough left to drop it down and poke through. I definitely didn't cut the wire and splice it back together to make it the perfect...
I figured having two different types of instructions could help people between what you're working on and what I did. Are you fabricating a full hitch bar that mounts where the crash bar bolts in on the left and right and then pops the hitch under the bottom of the bumper? I think that's...
Alright I guess I'll finally get around to writing this up.

1. Remove Rear Bumper and unplug any sensors and wires going to the reverse light:
2. To wire the 4 pin trailer light assembly splice into the rear lights as shown below...
I topped off with distilled water. I went to Toyota intending to do a full coolant flush and they told me they needed to get it from BMW and it was on backorder. I ended up buying ht-12 from FCP Euro and will take it with me when I go back for service later.
Happened to me around 30k, seems to be a common "issue" which I wouldn't really call an issue. Just needs a top up. Haven't noticed my levels drop after topping it up 5k miles ago.
