Gloss clear engine enamel in a spray can. Easy. Phil

It's about speed V conditions. Tight narrow road with lots of parked traffic in confined area and intersections equals slow and cautious driving not overtaking and accelerating away at speed. Sometimes it's about more than who was technically "in the right" it's about what's the smartest way to...

Cant agree with that. The Supra was being driven by a tool. Phil

16 pages and you still can't work it out. How many times can you re hash the same info. Why didn't you raise the topic at your meeting and get them to work on it:rolleyes: Phil

Changed the wheel colour.

It's actually a higher or taller diff ratio in the Auto and the result is as you outline. It's not a designation of the actual numbers but a reference to the engine rpm V road speed. The Manual diff is way lower than it needs to be with an engine with a torque curve the B58 has same as first...

Is it not self healing? A quick hit with a heat gun to sort out the wiper marks? Phil

Don't try it on a Superbike then. Phil

Either you or he has it the wrong way around. Limit the rpm and make sure the engine always has load for correct ring seal. The combustion pressure generated by the larger throttle openings is what creates the pressure on the rings and the force necessary to push them against the cylinder walls...

First world problems, eh. Phil

Even if someone makes a painted one in the right colour the chances of it being a decent colour match to your particular car is remote. Buy a grp or carbon one and get it professionally paint matched to your car and painted. Phil

For removing lipstick and make up of course. Phil

The wheel has a "master spline" so it can only be installed on the shaft in 1 position. If the wheel splines have been broached incorrectly on the new or replacement wheel with relation to the wheel rim and spokes is what I mean. So although you install the wheel with the master spline correctly...

The wheel can only be installed one way, however the splines are so fine that even if they have been broached a degree out of clock it will make a noticeable difference at the wheel rim. Even a replacement OEM wheel may not be as perfectly aligned as the original that's why it's centred during a...

Unlikely someone has a used set because once they are "snap fitted" onto the OEM caps getting them off again will probably damage/ruin the OEM caps and the Verus covers as well. Once they are fitted they aren't designed to be removed. I've got a used oil filter you can have for free though, only...

The major issue with the supra 1st to second shift is it has a very large ratio jump, much greater than the typical medium duty gearbox equivalent in comparable cars. This means the second gear syncro assembly has a lot more work to do. It's just a characteristic of this cars internal gearbox...

Just a thought. Does it do this with the A/C turned off? Typically most cars will go sub idle for a second or so as the a/c compressor cycles on and the ecu lags a little bumping the idle up to compensate for the additional load. I've not noticed it on my Supra but I have on my other 2 late...

Did the OP check the "wastegate line"? Everyone seems to be going to the WCS. Phil

Yea look I appreciate what your saying. I've just spent years troubleshooting machines like race bikes and commercial jets and I know once a rider or pilot gets focused on some small idiosyncrasy it gets into your head and it's hard to shake loose. Happens to me as well sometimes but I recognise...
