Probably the last "update" post before the Supra goes into storage during autumn / winter. The Speed Engineering wing won't get fully mounted yet, because i was not able to get an appointment at the paint shop. Why a visit to a paint shop? Well when i took the ducktail spoiler off, i also...

Can confirm what Hasan says. Springs alone are just not harmonic with the dampers. I got my Supra with H&R springs. It looked nice but never truly drove how i wanted it. The switch to a KW3 V3 clubsport suspension was the right move.

Thanks! Lip is from Speed Engineering. Wheels are Japan Racing SL01. More details are in my opening post.

So after the KW suspension got fitted it took me some time to get an appointment for an alignment at my trusted workshop. I used that time to dial in the ride hight, took me some tries but i'm happy with it. Roughly 10mm higher in the front (due to the lip) + 10mm lower in the rear compared the...

If you had said you live in a region where it snows regular, i would have advised against getting a Supra. But we are just talking about rain.... Get the Supra, get good tires, use your brain and don't do dumb things when it's raining / wet.

Not much time left before i have to put the Supra away for winter storage. So I'm trying to make use of the time that is left to put more parts on the car. First one a front lip from Speed Engineering. Straight forward install, although when i did a test run on the street, the whole front...

My Supra sits a lot of the time for 1 to 2 weeks, since it's only my fun weekend / nice weather car, but she always starts up right away. That first little sputter in the video is imo not normal.

Start with the low temp one. Since the engine won't be running you don't need to fear that the high temp one will run dry.

Got two new parts lying around for a few weeks now, that I'm excited about - Rapid Design Diff Brace and a HJS 300 cell downpipe. 🤩 Finally found some motivation to put them on. Thankfully a work buddy offered his lift at home to me for use, which was a big help. The Diff Brace install was...

- try reformatting the USB stick and putting the music back on - try a different USB stick - try the USB stick on a different device and see if the music plays probably

Just hook it up. The blue filter is a replacement for the CCV line, i guess on your turbo inlet adapter is some kind of block of installed. And your catch can is now in between the PCV line. Which in stock form goes from the engine block to the inlet pipe.

The blue marked OUT line goes on to the intake.

Visited a (very) small JDM Meeting, which happened at an museum where they apparently had over the course of one month several JDM cars displayed and today was the final day where you could vote between the top 5 cars. The advertisement for the event made it out to be something big, but when i...

Don't know about the emission / noise regulation + inspection rules in the UK but HJS Catted Downpipe + Milltek Exhaust (OPF Version) should be a safe bet and upgrade.

I didn't mean i don't buy kits if i buy tools That was meant in general regarding the type of work you gonna do on the car. e.g. i don't buy all the tool to rebuild an engine if i'm not planning to do so. But i did buy a set of different e-torx and torx, because like you said it's usually...

That's basically how i approach things. Sure there are tools you want if you work on any kind of car, but why buy stuff that you might never need?

I'm in the boat one time reuse is ok. It would be interesting to have a percentage of clamping force loss with the first reuse. I probably have to change rotors next year and will use new bolts, since i don't know if the previous owner, or a workshop did anything to the brakes before and reused...

I think in another thread here people talked about that a bit. The conclusion was it's kind of unnecessary, since the air is moving so fast that it doesn't really absorb the temps from the pipes. What you should consider is hood vents though.

Toyota did raise the price in the beginning of 2025 for both the 2L and 3L by 10k € and that was a bad move, which cleary shows in the sell numbers. An M2 was only 5k € more then the 3L Supra.... And let's not talk about the 140k for the Final Edition one. 🙃 While i don't care about rarity...

Heatwave going on, i pulled my left shoulder muscle and i have nothing better to do when doing a trip to the Nürburgring for some Touristenfahrten. 🙃 But that is also a great stress test to see how the Supra performs, before the aero and suspensions mods will happen. Overall the Supra did very...
