Looks like aerodynamics catch-up to the SS at higher speeds maybe? in fairness, a mullet still works in a Camaro, whereas it’s out of place in a Supra.

There is always room for a couple of breasts and a nice thigh. In a bucket or otherwise.

The entire fry team from the KFC came to the drive-through window and asked to hear a rev. They were not disappointed.

It could look odd, but maybe good odd. I just don’t know.

Right, but I’m also interested in the contribution of width and height. Keeping a car a daily driver makes slicks and even many street legal tires not an option.

Im wondering what a 285/40/19 would do. Would that fit, make much of a difference, and have any undesirable consequences (too much flex in the sidewall)?

You keep good company.

Helpful. Many thanks.

I suspect it would be way more power than they can handle. I think helium-like magnets and lightweight paper make them a bit limited.

Gave the thumbs up to a mint Buick Grand National. He followed me into a parking lot to talk to me about the Supra. I remember the Blackbirds from the 80s when I was in high school. I remember the sound of the turbo as the went sailing by. what an oddly wonderful and peculiarly American car...

You can just see the hormones in that photo. 100 octane.

I’ll note that if you search “Is that a…” on YouTube, the top three are variants are of “a Supra.” The remainder are Is that a chicken? Is that alright lady Gaga? Is that a man riding a shrimp? Is that a crab with a top-hat and monocle? I just don’t understand it. I’m not sure why our cars...

Having passed my break-in mileage I’m able to mash the skinny pedal more and have become aware of the propensity of our cars to spin the tires. My question is, holding all else equal (e.g. tire make and model) how much extra grip would going to 305s make? And would it make much of a...

Maybe I can scratch of the date, write in May, and see if that works.

Story of my life… but many thanks for the fast reply.

My apologies if this is clearly articulated here, but over the almost 50 pages of posts, I’m not quite sure. What is the cutoff date for the ECU (not build date of the car) for tunable or not? I have a July build and a 6-27-2020 ECU.

Gas station again today: “amazing car!!!!” Parking lot: “beautiful car.” I did have a scat-pack warrior want to engage in a contest of acceleration. I declined. He strangely started tailgating me, within a few inches of my bumper. I changed lanes and he ended up next to me. At the light, he...

Not sure this helps at all, but input a 15” sub in and power it off an amp that gives the sub 750 watts (rms) and it work fine. So, what you’re proposing maybe isn’t necessary (dunno).

It’s like getting a COVID vaccination for your car. It’s a bit of a chore.

Both Virginia and Maryland dealers gave me the same price.
