New rims/tires Apex SM-10RS in Motorsport Gold Square 18x10 ET30 275/40/18 ExtremeContact Sport 02

Hell yeah!

Thanks B-man made a note to my original post.

You'll need to think of it differently.. You aren't making less power - on the contrary at the same boost levels you are actually making more power on E85 vs Gasoline; but it requires ~25% more volume of fuel to do so (as Bryan pointed out). Because of this, if a fuel pump is flow limited to...

Thnx for the insight Robert - and nice to meet a fellow Austinite. You've probably been on the exact road I recorded the video. I've got new rims and tires going on and then will reevaluate after that. I suspect it will still be there, but hey who knows. Is there a shop in Austin you would...

Actually yeah now that I look deeper into it, there are TWO FK8 entries, and one is nearly ~10 seconds slower than the Supra's entry. The FK8 that is faster was a non-road-legal FK8 that was recorded on a much cooler day than when the Supra's lap time was recorded. I stand corrected! Supra > Type R

What's funny about this is I had someone DM me saying they had no wheel hop when they lived in California, but then they moved to Texas (like me) and now they have wheel hop... Guess the answer is move back to California. (I do quite miss the roads there).

Not a bad idea. I did reach out to Verkline - they said they will be escalating the question to the appropriate people but I haven't heard back yet. I'll probably reach out to a few other shops.

I was going to do this myself - but with the sale they have going on right now it actually brought the price very close to what it would have been on AliBaba :)

Unsure but would something like this be helpful? https://www.amazon.com/Mxmoonfree-Digital-Portable-Power-off-ZMF-500N/dp/B08YJNGVKM/ref=sr_1_4?c=ts&s=industrial&sr=1-4&ts_id=401582011

My personal testing has shown: 1. It wasn't too off from ambient air temps while at speed, but was prone to heat soak when at a standstill 2. It sounds awesome 3. It seemed to pick up a few HP 3rd party has verified it gives around 3hp over the factory airbox if running the OEM tune with it...

That just goes to show how much better the Supra is ;)

Raced a FK8 Civic Type R. Makes me wish I had a camera facing the rear of the vehicle to demonstrate but by the end of the junction I had put a number of car lengths on him. Then similarly again when we did a straight line race a few minutes later. I know on paper they beat a MKV Supra around...

What tire sizes?

Just making this thread to have it easily searchable for those who are curious. POST YOUR WHEEL WEIGHTS!!!!! Apex SM-10RS 18x10+30 Wheels weigh: 18.2lbs (I weighed the Motorsport Gold color but this shouldn't matter at all). Stay sexy.

All 4 rims arrived (2 on Friday and 2 on Saturday, unsure why half the shipment got delayed a day) Apex SM10-RS 18x10+30 Have an appointment with Discount Tire to install 275/40/18 Continental Extreme Contact Sport 02s onto them after all the positive reviews I saw on the tire. Very excited...

Looks fantastic. What's your general method here? (I'm new to washing my own cars being a rally guy) What cleaning sponge or rag do you use? Thanks!

You say you were quoted $1000 to fix the problem - what's in the statement of work for this quote? My guess is the control arm is bent. Could also be something got bent on the knuckle.... or maybe everything is bent lol. My advice is get under the car and check for trueness between the...

When I was a teenager it was entirely illegal for me to have any sort of job - so I sold drugs instead. Saved enough money to buy a drop top 1983 Mustang that I once got so high in I took it through a carwash with the top down accidentally. DeSantis giving teenagers opportunities to legit earn...
