  1. What did you do to your Supra today?

    Apparently nobody has a sense of humor anymore huh? It's nothing to do with Nazis, just the term coined for WWII partnership of Germany & Japan (yes, I know, Italy too). It applies to this vehicle quite well, and I've never had anybody react negatively before. You of all people should know...

  3. What did you do to your Supra today?

    I have them too, and love the way they look! I do notice that the taper and size of the tip inlet hole inside the tail pipes is smaller, and allows them to catch the water from the exhaust and drain it behind the tip (forward on the car), keeping the parts exposed cleaner than the originals...
  4. What did you do to your Supra today?

    Are those the slip-on BMW tips from Amazon?
  5. What did you do to your Supra today?

    Mine was delayed by several months too, 12/01/2020 order, took delivery 05/31/2021. First off, the front bumper cover got gouged in shipping, and required complete replacement. Secondly, because I'm an insider/employee, I'm alleging they put my order on a low priority status, because it sat at...
  6. Replacement Plastic Fasteners

    90118-WA334, retail price $.29 each
  7. Hood vent samples

    Forgive me, I was only thinking about the air temperatures at the mouth of the airbox inlet itself, in the stock location, while the vehicle is in motion.
  8. Hood vent samples

    It shouldn't have any effect on Intake Air Temperatures, even with an exposed filter element design, but will help reduce the overall Under-Hood Air Temperatures. The vent plugs certainly aren't watertight, and the axle-back sides of the clamshell hood have adequate drainage holes. There's...
  9. Hood vent samples

    The smoke test with my old fog machine is the idea I had actually.
  10. Hood vent samples

    I know EXACTLY what you're talking about, and had the same questions, so I did some rudimentary testing in my garage and found them to be somewhat functional. I've got a more scientific idea for a second round of DIY testing as well, but will have to wait to get it out of storage to try that.
  11. Couple silly questions

    I know for a fact that it isn't the Electronic Parking Brake actuators. The EPB actuators make a very different sound, and the noise I'm talking about comes from the front of the vehicle 75% of the time.
  12. Couple silly questions

    Honestly, I have no idea what all that noise is when you turn the car off and exit. You can trigger it again by closing the hatch or hood. Sounds an awful lot like small plastic gears turning, and can be heard from both ends of the car. The only thing I can think of is the AVS...
  13. Ever seen the BMW 17" winter option wheels for the GR 2.0?

    So these were quite elusive in terms of finding an actual photograph of the *WINTER OPTION 17X7.5 alloy wheels, part number 42611-WAA05, but I had a customer that insisted on driving his DB23 (2.0) all year long, so I put a package together for him. It's a square setup, wearing P225/50R17...
  14. No more Russia unlocks

    Back on topic comrades!
  15. Extra Miles After Service

    They have to give you an initial copy of the work order before they so much as move the car in the drive, and the precise intake mileage MUST be on it. The exact mileage out must also be on the final copy.
  16. Extra Miles After Service

    Ask them point blank about it. It's normal for a post-service/repair test drive for QC purposes, but not a long one. You signed a legal document allowing them to drive the vehicle, but there's a large gray area between what's proper professional and what's joyriding nonsense.
  17. Car and Driver tests a tuner Supra…

    It seriously made me re-think about my suspension changes coming in the spring.
