Thanks but that probably won't work here the stone chip on our roads is so coarse, we have few asphalt & no concrete roads :(
I get the giggles when I see Guys complaining about the road noise on asphalt, they would never cope here :)
It is open, then when its starts cold or coldish in normal or sport, the valve closes for a wee while (haven't timed it) & then opens once the idle settles
When I took my Supra to the dealership for its first oil change (at my cost) they didn't have a loaner.
I said "there is crappy grey Supra over there I could take" the boss over heard me, (his car & the only other Supra in town), he laughed & said take my Lexus, its out side, I'll get the key...
Yes the back seats are rubbish in the 86, still better than the ones in the Supra though :D
But folded down you can get so much more stuff in the back of an 86
I had to get really creative & take less in the Supra than the 86 to go to Benchrest shooting competitions
That's all the shooting...
I had a play with BM3 yesterday, changed the valving opening setting & unfortunately it made no difference, didn't change the actuation at all :(
I'm going to contact them to see if something is available or if I did something wrong
The GT start up is loud, not sure I will keep it
The GT 86 would be an interesting comparison for the 2.0 Supra
It is less than half to cost of the 3.0 Supra here, 550 lbs lighter, more practical, handles better & has 6 MT
But it has way less horsepower & uses more fuel than the 3.0
I doubt we will get the 2.0 here, not enough sales of the...
Got bored today so had a play with the car after updating the Tune
You can see here an opening into the wheel well, I was concerned with stuff getting up in there & it looks like nothing so far
Here is looking towards the front of the car, you can clearly see the factory air intake, quite...
If I had a Go, Pro etc I could check, but considering there is appears to be no increase in noise open or closed it would probably make little difference.
That is what is concerning me, couldn't stand a rowdy exhaust all the time, the Supra isn't an old VB commodore full of Bro's
Apparently I can change the valve actuation with BM3, going to have a play.
What exhaust did you put on ?
I don't think so, there is a noticeable sound difference on the US car at idle with valve on & off, there isn't on mine
I will have to have a play in the weekend manually operating the valve
When I turn my sport button on & off the flap doesn't move & the exhaust note doesn't change apart from the crackles & pops, thats a tuning input
At idle when my valve is shut & then opens then is no increase in exhaust noise at all
Its like the US one has less baffles than our ones so the...
