It's about time. I hope they focus on the discontinued MKIV parts first. My local Supra friend bought the last V160 in all of North America a week before I priced checked one. Now MKIV owners won't be able to post up their brand new unopened MKIV floormats and sell them for $1000... :doh:

Why not just put MKIV badges on and call it a day since they are still available. Your car will be a little bit cooler... not as cooler but close. :rofl:

Kon'nichiwa Go! :D Yeah, the recent Top Gear review was the latest one I saw there they were sliding it. Farah also managed to slip it a little bit before tc kicked in. So no Primacy HP's on the Supra huh. ;) PSS are good tires but what were they thinking with the 86 to put those tires on.

Singer, Gunther, 356 Outlaws are all builders. There's a difference since they are restoring vintage and classic Porsches. They don't make any aftermarket parts available for sale. Sharkwerks, Getty, BBI are some who make up the aftermarket world. 997 and 991 turbos are the car of choice...

Coming from moto racing, the phrase, "power isn't shit without control" was used frequently so I agree with you on that. I guess I'm deviating away from the whole import scene with the whole "mod everything" mentality and more towards Porsche's philosophy. They design their cars to be really...

Now that we've discovered how much power the MKV is actually making, folks are already trying to unlock more power. Tada mentioned that you can always add more power but then you sacrifice the goal of having a balanced vehicle. Then he said that the car is built for the aftermarket tuners. I...

I wonder if they are going to make a single exit system. The HKS Ti for the MKIV is 31lbs.

I mean, golden ratio wheelbase but from the press drives, there were instances where the MKV was starting to get a little tail happy. Yeah they were on PSS and stickier tires would have helped but once you start changing that PWR, there goes that balance.

It's kind of contradictory. Tada-san's goal was balance and achieving that golden ratio. However, he then said the car was designed for the aftermarket tuners. Just adding a tune will transform the car.

I think Tada-San and Toyota had a poker face this entire time. "Gentlemen's agreement V2.0" ;)

I was the one who voted for yes! My basis is from growing up in the an era when Toyota was at it's pinnacle. Toyota made a lot of fun, bulletproof vehicles, design all mixed in with fun and strong marketing. Akio took over in 2009 so that's when his progress started. He essentially...

This is interesting to read and contradicts the whole BMW and Toyota parting ways in 2014. Speaking of the BMW parts that make up most of the GR Supra - a hotly-debated subject during its launch week - Tada-san also gave an interesting insight into a surprisingly late change made to the...

:rofl: Toyota already managed to piss off many with this car. I guess there's still more room on the couch.

I don't know who/how in the right state of mind decided on the pricing for these pieces but it's ridiculous. If these prices are insane, I don't even want to know how much a TRD widebody kit would be. :rofl:

They got my attention when they said "manual"!! So is this the GT4 concept and is it coming to the U.S?

This looks like the BMW tax is slowing starting to set in. I hope they have UV inhibitors or else that beautiful CF will start to match that yellow exterior paint.

Oh yeah! I'm still trying to gravitate to that level! The 997.1 GT3 market is starting to slowdown but the 997.2 GT3 market is still crazy. I know it's a significant delta from a 997.1 C2S to a 997.1 GT3, I would rather have a .2 GT3. I almost shook on a 997.2 GT silver GT3 in AZ for 92K...

I'm not making a big deal and grew up in a household of ol skool compact Toyotas. My point was to take MF's of the ZF 8HP tranny with a grain of salt. Sure the PDK has some issues and MF drove 60 laps on the Supra but until there is a true head-head comparison and data to prove otherwise, the...

He also said the Supra is literally the same size as the 86 but who's counting. :D Listen to his podcast where he's unfiltered and doesn't have to appease the masses that walk the same floor that Tada-san is standing on.

I know, I was just adding to your post. I apologize if it sounded like I was in a debate with your post. That's a great One thing to add and I don't mean to come off as an elite Porsche fanboi but once you own a Porsche, you sort of become part of the "familia". Porsche has so many PCA...
