  1. A90 tuning Question

    "Knock retard" means the engine timing, how early the spark plug fires, becomes more conservative. In other words: to eliminate the knock and preserve the safety of the engine, the car fires each cylinder's spark plug 6 degrees of crank rotation later than intended. You cannot add timing...
  2. Flex fuel Sensor ERROR need help

    My guess is wiring. I know you said you checked it, but this could easily be explained by a dodgy/intermittent ground or a piggyback harness that isn't quite secured. You could also order a replacement Continental-brand ethanol sensor and try that. Send it back if it's not the issue.
  3. Replacement Headlight Lens

    Sorely needed product. Thanks for doing us all a great service.
  4. Verkline Rear Adjustable Traction Link and Toe Link NVH Question

    My Supra is used on street and strip, so keep that perspective in mind when weighing my feedback. I recently did the full SPL setup except for front caster bushing. There was a noticeable improvement in road feel transmitted to hands and butt. At first, I thought the car felt more "floaty," but...
  5. Car has previous unknown platform stage 1 tune, am I clear to apply new MHD tune?

    I have a 2020, early enough that it did not need a bench unlock. I originally tuned with BM3. Since that time, I simply overwrote BM3 with Ecutek, and overwrote Ecutek with MHD+. Once the car was unlocked and had a tune, I never flashed back to stock and I never had to re-unlock the ECU.
  6. SPL install tips

    Take your adjustable end links to full short, then adjust swaybar pre-load to neutral.
  7. Seibon TV Style Hood

    You may be able to PPF it sooner than 30 days. My trusted body shop uses a newer paint system that cures with UV light like a gel nail manicure, and it's ready to wrap pretty much as soon as you pick it up. Ask them what they think! You might be surprised. :)
  8. Stripped oil pan threads

    You have three options: 1) You can drill the oil pan bung to the next size up, then tap it with new threads. Supra is M12x1.5 thread from the factory, so the next standard size up would be an M14x1.5 plug. You would need a 14mm drill bit and an M14x1.5 tap. Despite your best care, you're still...
  9. Got a flat tire, need to get it towed to a local Toyota dealership, worried about warranty.

    Hi, OP. Your situation is covered in the USA by the Magnuson Moss warranty act. Amongst many things offered by this law, it prevents companies from declining a warranty due to non-OEM replacement parts. Further, it prevents a company from denying a warranty claim unless they can clearly...
  10. Loud popping/backfire

    uhhhhhhhhhhhhh ? Any car is going to run rich instantly coming off 4K+ RPM to nothing. There's going to be overrun. It's going to pop, crackle, bang, whatever. Feel free to spend the next hour of your life pointlessly nitpicking the definition of "loud backfire." ✌️
  11. Bimmerplug - Beware

    If the coupon/promo works, they should honor it. Outsourcing your pricing and CME failures to the customer is a bad look.
  12. CEL 12B701 Active Autowerke

    There's no fix. Warranty replace it with another one.
  13. Loud popping/backfire

    This happens on any sufficiently high-performance vehicle letting off of high RPM. If it happened before you let off, that might be a sign of the tune's fuel mix being a little lean (consult with your tuner).
  14. Disc stone protector.

    These are dust shields. The metal is harder than the stone.
  15. SEIBON Goodness!

    Just bought hood and hatch from Josh. Painless and good price!
  16. Oil pump

    If that's the part number for a G29 generation Z4, yes it will fit. Most likely a sensor will not fix your issue. The early model B58TU motors had plastic components in the oil pump that change the geometry of the pump. This plastic part has probably cracked, and oil level checks stop working...
  17. Rain sensor

    I regret to inform you that it makes the car immediately explode. Immediately.
  18. Proper Procedure for using E based maps

    If your final octane is higher than 93, you're fine.
  19. Wheel Hub Assembly Removal Help

    That would be anti-corrosion compound.
