In before Mark (FLtrackdays) comes in with his paragraph-dumping knowledge of track parts, and excessive enthusiasm for the MKV and how hard it punches above its weight. ;) Then Bryan(Briana) comes in and whips the storm..

;)

Definitely one of the more interesting "production mistake?" sagas I've seen on one of these. Can't wait to hear what their conclusion is. Could you DM me the VIN or a photo of the actual window sticker?

<--- Toyota "insider," can confirm that 50 (+/- 10) is the number we've been led to believe this whole time, with my sources, and our own VIN/owner tracking homework also indicating the same production numbers. While the Burnout is the most rare color ever applied to the USDM MKV, it's proven...

Call me rude, but I'm just trying to save our boy some time here... The rear axles are the same parts, by the driveshaft is different somehow. Based on historical data, logic would point to a length deviation..

This is dead right. Without removing the transmission to inspect and confirm the issue, it's literally the equivalent of condemning an engine that "lacks power" without so much as a compression & leakdown test, or a borescope inspection. I'm having trouble imagining something that looks more...

The DH wears P Zero Trofeo RS tires. That's why it stops like it does. Semi-related note, my lifelong dream car broke/held the 0-100-0 record three times ? (but it looks like the 0-150-0 is the new yardstick now)

Fucking hell man, sorry to hear. Not much different than what happened to mine a month ago... Hopefully the insurance company can make you whole again. My payment was quite lucrative, but it still put me back to square one on my hunt for another MKV, which is more of a headache now than...

6 port and suspension TOTAL DOMINATION

Ok, WHY do you need a clutch? What is the symptom here? Engagement issue? Noise? Vibration? Gears grinding due to lack of full disengagement? Slippage? If you actually burned the clutch down that fast, the car would be so permeated with clutch smell it would take MONTHS for the smell to...

That reads like some Florida (or even northern Wisconsin) kinda shit. Inebriated or not, causing senseless property damage IS grounds for a proper ass-whoopin' in my book, and it would have been difficult not to defend my property and/or person. You NEED a dash cam from here on out.

The only people that still live in 1942 are the numbskulls shelling out $50+K for a Jeep Wrangler :doh: It's a long term wear and tear thing. If the vehicle has a legitimate reason to live on stands for a while, so be it. However, unloading the suspension (technically negatively loading)...

I could never understand the extra value in one of those, as they made too many of them :dunno:

Adjusted for inflation, the MKV is significantly cheaper than the MKIV Turbo ever was. Uneducated fanboys will also never wrap their heads around the fact that the MKIV was technically a sales disaster in the US, and the 2JZ-GTE doesn't come with 800 HP out of the box.

I do actually! The factory folding one? DM me!

100% SUBARU engine in that thing. It would been hard for me to not do one of the following: 1. Have him open his hood so I could point to the word SUBARU, proudly molded into the engine cover. Point to it, look him dead in the eye, say nothing and walk away. 2. Gone full petty (based on his...

I'm in that bracket, and I have no idea what the fuck you're saying :rofl:

Could easily be $10,000 in damage here, but shouldn't be close to a total loss. I would know unfortunately, as mine was totaled a few weeks ago. Do you have another vehicle to drive, or will you need a rental car? That will play a big part believe it or not..
