I went through the same dilemma recently. I ordered an exhaust during the Black Friday deals and was trying to figure out how to get under the car to install it. I have Rhino Ramps, but they are too tall for this car (I am at stock height). I also have a Daytona 3-ton long-reach low-profile...
I purchased a 17-inch Spare Wheel from Toyota (42611-WAA07) and test fitted on the front and back of my 3.0 Premium (because I also feared it would hit the calipers) and it spins freely, I believe I have the largest OE brakes available. I have also read of others on this forum using 17-inch...
Interestingly Toyota sells a wheel specifically for Winter tires. It is a 17-inch wheel intended for a square 225/50R17 98H tire setup. I haven't looked, but I would guess plenty of winter options in that size, though such skinny tires may will look funny. There is even an option in the TPMS...
I went with All-Seasons for the cold months. I work from home and have no need to actually get anywhere if it snows, but want to be able to safely drive on the many cold-but-sunny days in a Denver-Metro winter. (our other car is a VW SUV and much better for snow, we have Nokian All-Weathers on...
Do the boards from AliExpress not include thermal paste or pads?
If not, I'll need to crack open my computer-tools case to see if I have thermal paste remaining.
It may depend a bit on the tire you are looking at. Most tires will have a range of Rim Widths they support. The OE rear wheels are 10-inches wide, which is usually on the larger side of what a 255-width tire will support, but I looked up some random 255-width tires on Tire Rack (image below)...
OP,
Thanks for this. I was just about to order some expensive ones using a Black Friday discount, but the discount is the same as the total price for these from Ali Express. I'll give these a shot (ordered just now), if they fail, not a big loss.
I called Ark on Tuesday and they confirmed installing the valve actuator without the shield is correct. That is how they do it on their own installs.
Overall I’m very happy with the sound. The fitment is just slightly off with one tip not-quite centered and sticking out a bit more than the...
Okay, but how? The actuator+shield will not sit flush in the ARK bracket because of the lower bracket-mounting bolt being in the way (see photo). The actuator does sit flush without the shield as there is room for the bolt head. Did you cut a hole in your shield to accommodate that bolt?
I...
I actually bookmarked your post months ago planning for this day, and did my best to follow your guidance. :)
I tried using both wobble extensions and u-joints on the top bolt, but I could not find the right combo to get a good purchase on the bolt. It was really tough work in there and...
I did this today and bleeding the clutch afterwards was definitely the most difficult part, I have some guidance below on what method worked for me to bleed the clutch.
Originally I planned to swap in a new Slave Cylinder, but I did not have a good way to remove the top bolt on the OE slave...
Hi everyone,
I purchased an ARK exhaust for my new Supra last week and am working through the install right now. My valve actuator bracket was also bent out of the box like another member mentioned. I just unwrapped it from an undamaged shipping box today, so the bent bracket was provided by...
That didn't work for me on my MY2024. My car was built in June, delivered in August, so maybe something changed (or you got lucky!). The only way I was able to avoid hitting the button each time was to have my car start in Sport - Individual.
For those of you worried about startup noise, when...
