If the clutch weren't engaging fully, then yes. But you seem to be having the opposite issue. Your problem would be extra wear on the synchros.

Sounds like the pressure plate is not fully disengaging.

*Memories of hitting my head the first two times I got in*. That was frustrating. Anyway, as soon as someone types "one of..." you know a cray cray price is incoming.

After reading through this thread again, I'd recommend just getting the M2. I think you are subconsciously talking yourself into it by discounting the Supra while also comparing the BMW to two relatively incomparable cars. One is a FWD performance vehicle and the other is a problematic...

Good luck with whichever way you decide to go! I guess I'll consider myself lucky. I'm considering another, so hopefully lightening will strike twice. :headbang:

I did a full season of time attack with camber plates, wheels, tires, brake pads, and brake fluid (every single car ever made needs these, so not a deal breaker). I was faster than every other car in my class (classes based on a points system), including M-coupes, and various generations of M3s...

Those are two of the craziest things I've read on this forum.

The first guy that tuned my car never saved mine. I coulda choked him. Good to know the Supra community possibly has a fix.

These are part of the reason I sold my Evo and Supra. CA was getting good at detecting changes to ECUs and I couldn't confirm that I could put things back to OEM enough to pass the CID/CVN checks. I seem to remember people editing files and/or having ROMs I didn't have access to, so I gave up...

I'm okay with people doing things to negate the effectiveness of flock cameras, based on principal alone. If I could do something simple to block my plates, just to mess with them, I would.

Gotcha. I used Harry's for the lap timer (it was within .01 of my transponder) and to record/overlay video. The GPS gave me a rough idea of what was going on, but not good enough if you are actually wanting to use it as a tool for improvement.

What kind of resolution/accuracy do you need? I used Harry's Lap Timer (Pro, if it matters) and never had any problems with it not reading. I kept my phone on a magnet attached to the windshield so I could view the lap times. I was able to use it to get an idea of where I could improve, but not...

I actually had no idea so many Supra owners also have/had a GT350. That's unexpected considering how different they are.

The front is fine. You use the tie rods to adjust toe. :headbang:

How serious are you getting into AutoX? I grab a helmet and a small ice chest with drinks. I've never had to work on the car, so never take tools. Wait.. there was a season where I competed for local points. I took that serious and so also took my tire pressure gauge.

Depends on how you look at it. Max is a perfectionist. That's how he trains and that's what he wants from his team. If he weren't complaining, how would they know what to change? Nobody progresses when they sit and accept how things are. Every other top driver is also complaining about their...

That's something Hamilton should know, at this stage in his career. And if their mum had balls, she would be their dad. :D I'll say that it is a lot of fun not know who will win each week. Car development is so varied, since it's also so new. With everyone taking different approaches, the...

In your situation, the Supra has to be a no-go. You can't drive it any time you want. If you want to daily it, you can't. Having a $50k car in the garage and barely using it is fine for rich folk, but not us regular guys. Personally, I don't know how they can stand it LOL

An RS3 and Supra aren't normally cars that would be cross-shopped. I'd imagine someone would be solidly on one side of the fence or the other. Seems making the choice would be pretty cut and dry. Are you considering sport sedans from other manufacturers?

Nothing ever happened. Stock exhaust, etc. Maybe if I had a snap crackle pop tune? :D
