Easiest way to negotiate is talk MSRP only (discounted or above it) w/out any junk fees. They know what junk fees are. Itās anything not required to sell you the car. You canāt get around tax, title, tag, dealer fee, etc. So no need to discuss it. Stick to negotiating what they can control only...
No. You only need that if there is air in the ABS system. Which there shouldnāt be. Itās only if you screw up along the way and need to access the ABS to bleed that as well.
You should be able to do a traditional two person method or use a power bleeder just fine...
āFast, cheap, reliable- pick twoā
Truth in that subtext sig of yours! This Supra provided an incredible amount of performance (bang) for the buck. It was hard not to consider it when shopping for more expensive track cars. Add to the fact the ability to mod/upgrade the car, I really hope they...
I donāt know how close Sebring is for yāall, but NASA is having a huge event in January.

You can enter the track for ?. Donāt have to sign up to drive. You just sign a waiver to enter. Then drive around, park near the garages & walk around. Youāll see...
At best 2 weekend per month in Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb. Once weekend in the warmer Oct & March months. Now Iām saving up for seats after being in Gabeās mean machine. Thatāll cost me one less track weekend ?. SPL parts are getting changed out for Verkline $$$, there goes another few weekendsā¦. Maybe...
My car has never asked for oil. I do track it & change it more often. I also use thicker XCess 5w-40. Regardless, sorry to hear youāve had such an ordeal. Maybe you can lemon ? law it and get another?
Was warming up until I saw someone I knew in my mirror. This isnāt for best lap, driving line or racing, just plain ole fun in the FL sun ā We did it for about 3 laps.

Yeah I said too much as usual ?. Neg toe in the rear and zero to a pinch toe out up front is my preference. I was surprised how much better the car felt for meā¦.
Nice bunch of owners as well ?
FARAās HPDE Academy & Chin might be worth considering as well. I really like em
Sebring is also a...
Depends on who youāre talking to. For most of us in HPDE, zero toe up front is fine. Itās more stable and less prone to snap oversteer. I personally love having some toe out up front - coming from a S2000. That thing would start turning as soon as you started looking in the direction you wanted...
Thatās what I really wanted in town and why I bought the thing. Normal automatic mode (before the xHP flash) would shift to 8th gear so quickly & low mph, it was insane. Sport imo should be called track, because it was way too much for in town (especially catless and an AWE track exhaust). Now...
Couple of things, but mainly not overheating or going into limp mode if I push the snot out of her on track. I like that sheās currently reliable and can drive to the track & back. I lack tuning/ software knowledge to self repair or diagnose suff that could possibly come up. Unlike some of you...
Wish I had the mountain viewās like yāall do⦠My only glamor shot of the weekend was just chillin outside the garage at Homestead to fill up ā½ As close as I could get in the shade to my gas cans and no roof overhead ?
I really want a Wagner manifold next. Dammit, after a seat I mean. Man I hope thatās not something else Iāll be needing (wanting) ? I love Verus products! Mega high quality and unfortunately high prices to match ?
Totally hypothetical⦠thinking down the road (after the seat & Wagner manifold...
The xHP stage 2 and stage 3 flash worked flawlessly on track. A buddy did it for me. Had me drive around a bit outside the track just to test it. I worked so well, I actually drove in full automatic on sport w/ nannies off. Was amazed you actually could do that with this thing. Noticeably...
Three things I noticed this weekend at Homestead.
1) Adding some toe out up front helped tremendously on track. I believe the shop added 5 minutes of toe out per side up front (about 0.16 degrees total). It might have been more but I couldnāt remember how much total he said. The rest of the...
I wish Max would have backed off a pinch sooner, avoided the hit, to still been In it w/out the penalty. But youāre right. That woulda been a great battle.
My wife asked what did Lewis win? By showing up on the newly 4th podium spot on TV and getting an historic team switching celebration...
Finally met most of those other Supraās (owners)
A car worth all our Supraās combined (and then some) ? Along with special parking for me on the way home ?
After getting 6 mpg on the track, then 30+ mpg on the highway, felt like she earned a fuel-efficient (rest area ?) parking spots ?
