I don't think mine is the bar itself. Holding on that or pushing it to either side doesn't make a difference. Whatever it is, it seems like it's behind one of the two panels removed here. I might pop those off and see what I can find.

Any chance you could measure the height from the ground to the fenders above the center of the wheel? I'm looking for the mildest springs and those seem like a good fit.

After doing this I still have some sort of vibration right behind the seat I'm hunting down. I've already put foam in the one panel directly behind the seat back but there is something that's rattling about head level it sounds like. Any ideas what that could be?

You can just pull the restrictor plate out of the slave. It's pretty easy.

These seem to have good reviews and are pretty cheap. Someone on the forums got one and said they had good fitment. If I ever decide to go with a duckbill spoiler I'm probably going to try one of these. They have other colors and styles if you look at their company page on Amazon...

Yeah the biggest change from removing the CDV is getting rid of the weirdness in the 1-2 shift. It's been like that since the 90s in manual BMWs. I'm going be taking mine out this week.

I never said Toyota can’t make a good inline 6. The 2jz was good, they just spent way too much money overengineering it and in the process making the car way too expensive. The main reason they’re so expensive today is because they barely sold any. BMW is the king of inline 6s because they...

Now that my engine is broken in I've been doing some full throttle pulls and ran into the traction control a few times. Are you guys that are experiencing slip sure that it's not just the traction control kicking in? It feels pretty similar to a slipping clutch in these cars. I'm not saying...

I'm not a fanboy for either company but let's be real, BMW is the inline 6 king. I highly doubt Toyota would come up with something better on their own.

Just finished this mod today. Huge difference in clarity and volume. I will also say make sure to stuff some foam between the panel behind the seat and the carpet. That by itself eliminates a huge portion of the vibrations I ended up using these links on amazon. You'll end up with way more...

It's way better in real life. It's a really hard color to capture accurately in photos.

Yeah almost none of the pictures of stratosphere/portimao look even remotely accurate to what it does in real life. If you don't like purple, you won't like the color. The only time it doesn't have a purple tint is in direct bright sunlight.

The supra is my 4th manual BMW. I've removed the CDV on all of my previous ones and I am going to for the supra as well. I wouldn't keep doing it if it didn't make a noticeable difference. Until you experience them side by side, you won't realize how much of a difference it makes in improved...

Still slightly quicker, which I wasn't expecting at all. I thought the new M2 was going to be a lot quicker.

Surprised to see the Supra is quicker than the new M2 around a track. On the other hand, it's 500 lbs lighter.

That's correct it's not going to be the same part number. BMW 21526785964 is from the E90 generation cars and is the same thing, it just doesn't have a CDV in it like the version that comes on our car. Either one will work, you just have to remove the CDV on the supra one. Good to know what...

For anyone with the TRD style spoiler, do you have any pictures from inside? I'd like to eventually add one but I'm worried that's going to take up a lot of rear visibility.

I put the ebay kit on the first day of ownership and haven't heard any sort of whistling. Wind buffeting is absolutely still a problem on 2023's. I'm not sure how people aren't noticing it. However, after adding the ebay solution, this car has less buffeting than most I've owned.

2023 was probably the "facelift". There definitely isn't going to be one for 2024 if they're releasing the orange edition looking exactly the same.
