Got it done at Swickard way back in September (locked, so tuning wasn't an issue). They didn't mind my JB4, downpipe, Cusco brace, or intake. Just set JB4 to map 0 and unplugged it from the OBD2.

Refraction blues going down like flies.

I agree, do both, you'll have better brake feel and better brake feel on the tracks, especially in the late sessions. I definitely felt fade on the stocks a couple of sessions in.

I actually found that for me, the $9 Amazon fix didn't stay on when I was going above 120 or so. It might've been due to bad installation, or it could just be the force of air rushing past overcoming the bonding agent.

I'm going to second Bimtech; they're in Lynnwood now. He's worked on several other Supras here, and I'll be taking mine to him for a laundry list of parts to be installed. He does great work based on the other Supras I've seen.

For me, I also took that time to get the bumper repainted due to some rock chips that were there, so 2 birds with 1 stone. (Had the ignominy of getting rock chips between getting the car and dropping it off for the earliest PPF appointment).

I had tried out bumper plugs (paint matched) but couldn't do it. I am a bit more OCD than you and for me, the nose draws attention and the curved surface makes it clear the plugs aren't meant to be there. It was pricey, similar to what you said for repair + PPF + ceramic, but for me, the...

No to the wing -- the Supra doesn't have the same lines as Lambos to make that wing work. And as for the badges, people should just own up to what they drive instead of pretending it's something else. Applies to this car, Ecoboosts badged as 5.0s, non-M BMWs, etc.

Took the Supra to Cars and Coffee, and happened to see this RK exhaust on a 911 GT3 RS that was in attendance.

Europe's been getting tires like the PS5 and the Continental listed above earlier. I just got the 265 and 295 PS4S tires. Most tire dealers here are having an awful time just meeting existing demand. Who knows when they'll get new tire models in?

Gave it a proper wash before it transforms into a new car over the next 2 weeks.

Video games love using random numbers for pre-release cars. Didn't Project Cars 3 quote something like 3200 lbs, and something like 450 hp and 425 lb ft of torque or something ridiculous?

Dropped off the TS-5s at the local tire shop so they can the tires and TPMS set up. The car will be going in next week to get those put on, and the all-seasons & OEM wheels will go on the tire dolly till October.

I live in a condo with no power access in the garage, so my only option is a DIY garage to do work involving getting under the car. Also between grad school midterms and work, I don't really have much free time to do most maintenance work, so I'm taking it to Ivan up in Lynnwood (don't remember...

D Stuff came up and I needed the car early, so I just got the oil done today. Brake items are now going in with my laundry list of items sitting in boxes, going on for the week of the 14th.

Hoping to get out to the track in April after getting some parts installed later this month. Should be the best test for them.

Realistically though, it makes sure your retinas don't melt like in Raiders of the Lost Ark when you view the page in the dark at 2am.

Car's going in to do the stuff I can't do without a lift: Endless MX72 brake pads, RF 650 fluid (brake fluid flush), and 5k mile oil change.

I'm 5'6" so space inside has never been a problem. Ingress/egress isn't a problem either but it's not as simple as getting in an SUV. My parents struggled a bit with it when they visited since the cabin is low and it's a bit more of an effort to stand up straight exiting the car.
