LCD-2 Classic connected to a Topping A90/D90 stack :)

Installed Armaspeed intake today! The day before, I gave it a couple of coats with ceramic coating before installing it.

1) Spacers failed inspection. That means I'm not allowed to run spacers at all atm. So yes, people (police) are going to notice if they ever stop and inspect my car on the road.. But worst case it will only be a 1000 NOK fine (US$90) for a new obligatory inspection if I'm ever caught. Every 2nd...

Took my car to the DMV to get the lowering springs, spacers and exhaust approved. Springs and exhaust got approved, but spacers not, as the inspector claimed the edge of the rear tires where outside off the wheel arch by 1mm. That's 1/25" for you US guys. I'm running 13mm at the rear, but guess...

Fiat Multipla is still the highest one on my list

BM3 claims CustomROM for B58 Gen 2 is right around the corner (source: their own comments on their youtube page) And also their own flexi-fuel kit for the Supra

I did not cut them. There where no new bump stops included in the kit, so I take that as new bump stops or modifying the old one's are not needed if the drop is only 0.8" inch. Pining for the fjords eh? ;) I live in the south-eastern parts of Norway, where everything is flat, flat and flat...

Installed Eibach Euro 0.8" / 20mm springs and 11/13mm spacers today. Now I just need to drive the car for a couple of days to make the springs seat properly and then get an alignment.

I haven't tested it on the road yet, as the car stills stands on the quickjack. But I did start it up just to test, and I found the sound to be a bit deeper than normal, but not much louder. I have a Milltek OPF delete pipe and a Wagner cat-less downpipe waiting to be fitted at a later date...

I found a AliExpress shop that have these in a carbon fiber version: YISO Store I have been thinking about ordering the Max Orido front lip from them

Fitted axle-back system from Milltek today. Quite a popular brand here in Europe and one of few manufacturers that delivers their exhaust systems with EC/TÜV documents. Which I absolutely need in order to make the car road-legal.

I am not running this lip myself, but I'm highly considering gettingboth the lip and sideskirts. Max Orido himself has a YT video that shows the whole process of installing the complete kit.

imo, the Max Orido front lip is the most OEM looking one: https://maxorido.com/max-orido-aero-parts/en-max-orido-akea-90supra-aero-parts This video shows it off pretty good

Looks identical to this one: https://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/product/garage-whifbitz-gr-supra-a90-carbon-rear-spoiler/

Did you bench unlock your DME before trying to upload BM3 firmware? I've heard that trying to flash a locked DME can cause some issues. Did you remove the opf/gfp sensor tube when fitting the downpipe? Cause that will result in limp mode.

Apparently, by disabling the GPF/OPF function using BMW ISTA P, will bring back all the burple/shifting sounds that lacks on the EU version. But I have not been able to find much information about how to do this and I doubt any car dealer shop thats uses ISTA will allow you to do this at them.

My other funride, a 240SX S14 Kouki (EU Spec) that I have owned since 2005. Still superclean, only got 60k miles. Never driven during winter, so body is rust free. And my daily, a Nissan Leaf. I get to charge it for free at my workplace, so it's super economically to own.

One of the first thing I did when I got my car. Even with a stock euro exhaust with opf/gpf that produces almost no noise at all, the difference was immense. I just hated how fake the ASD sounds. Like taken out of a video game.

To my understading, the way to unlocking pre-06/2020 DME's is to use Autotuner and their "OBD Unlock Patch". Sadly, I'm having the same problem here in my country (Norway). Finding a tuner with experience unlocking DME's. So I'm looking at taking my car to Germany next year and getting it...
