  1. MKV Supra G8x LCI Steering Wheel Retrofit

    When you find out the cost you'll probably find it less attractive. I seem to recall over 1800USD and that ones got custom paddles so even more but I may be wrong. Phil
  2. Need help identifying an AC Noise

    No idea I'm afraid. My climate control is never turned off. Why do you turn yours on and off? Phil
  3. Breaking in new 2026 Supra

    I agree with all of this. The running in process is for the driver/rider and brakes not the engine. With modern plateaux honing of cylinders the rings are the only things that need to be "broken in" and that's 90% done by the time you get the car/bike. Every other component in the engine is...
  4. Strange Startup Noise

    Ha 10 deg C is cold? Where are you living Brisvegas? Hell here in Sunny Melbourne we get 0C regularly overnight in winter. In the automotive world 10C is nothing. My friend that spent his working hours testing and calibrating engines in GM's test cell had a test where they cooled the dyno to...
  5. Can't measure oil - have updated oil pump (WAA03)

    Didn't I read that during the oil level test when the ecu elevates the engine rpm for a period of time it establishes that the oil pressure is within certain parameters and then measures the oil Qty? If this is the case then when the oil pump adjuster ring breaks/fails the oil pressure defaults...
  6. Center armrest replacement without cupholders

    Just take the armrest to any decent automotive upholsterer and get it filled and covered. Pretty easy if you hate the holders and the available alternatives that much. You could even buy a new or second hand armrest for when the time comes to sell the car if the next owner wants the holders or...
  7. What did you do to your Supra today?

    GRP has been used as a term for glass reinforced plastic for so long and I think was originally abbreviated that way to separate it from a moulded plastic component back in the day. Now it's a term to also distinguish it from a "Carbon fibre" or Kevlar or Kevlar/Carbon or any other reinforcement...
  8. What did you do to your Supra today?

    The term is GRP. Glass Reinforced Plastic. Phil
  9. RHD interior carbon fiber products vendor?

    CF interior pieces are purely a cosmetic thing and offer zero practical benefit so having established that why not just get the std pieces hydrodipped in CF pattern. It will fit perfectly and you can at least get the weave aligned to the the original CF interior pieces. I mean CF is really just...
  10. Slipping serpentine belt. Broken crank pulley / harmonic damper?

    Even easier if your car is a manual. No need for the starter removal and flywheel lock just put it in gear with the handbrake on. Phil
  11. Looking to Buy a Used Supra – Which Year Should I Go For?

    That cars long gone. I was just interested in how it's all going with the transmission rebuild. You seem to think there's some ulterior motive in the question. Phil
  12. Looking to Buy a Used Supra – Which Year Should I Go For?

    But both are true. Hows the trans rebuild going? Phil
  13. Looking to Buy a Used Supra – Which Year Should I Go For?

    Buy the latest model you can and forget the tuning. I mean seriously, the things are approaching 380 hp stock at the wheels, how much power can you realistically use on the road without ending up in a ditch or in jail these days? This forum is full of people with "tunes" that then spend their...
  14. RHD interior carbon fiber products vendor?

    That console piece looks totally wrong with the weave of the CF cloth going in a completely different direction to the OEM piece. Details sometimes matter. Phil
  15. Official Ricer Thread - Bad Mods & Accessories

    Good door bumpers though. Phil
  16. Oem my23 beadlock torque specs

    I didn't ask for anything. Phil
  17. Got a CEL 3 days after a Tune - Sh****ng my pants

    You know if you're going to "shit yourself" when something like this occurs then you probably shouldn't be playing with "tunes" at all. A mans got to know his limitations.
  18. Braking "Moaning" sound in Adaptive Cruise Control

    It's moaning about having to do the drivers work for him ;) Phil
  19. Oem my23 beadlock torque specs

    Strange instruction to re torque after 20-50 miles when you've used blue loctite on the bolts. A totally pointless exercise after the Loctite has cured which takes about 10min for functional cure.
  20. What to do?

    Impossible to repair without it being obvious in the natural finish. If you paint it a colour then yes a repair is possible.
