I was watching the referenced youtube video from FCP Euro on the B58s. At ~16 min mark they talk about the issue with the plastic oil pump failure. The claim is that if you use the recommended oil 0w-20 you will not have a problem but if you use a thicker oil it will cause the plastic inside the...
I last changed me oil during the winter and probably put on less than 200 miles since but I went in anyway to do a change today. The oil is looking a little red. I don’t know if this is normal and I just never noticed because i usually go longer when the oil is much darker or does this indicate...
Anyone happen to know what PN this plastic cover is that holds the cabin air filter in? It seems that after 4 years, one of the plastic clips decided to break off when removing it.
By any chance does anyone know how to change the automatic map update setting? I’m stuck on a state I haven’t lived in in years. I updated the position but the old state remains (nav-settings-position and software-automatic map updates)
I seem to remember there was a way to select your region...
I need to replace a few of the plastic clips on the aluminum splash field under the engine but having trouble IDing what the part number is. Does anyone know if this is known as the "shield nut"? While it almost makes sense, the diagrams are terrible and are of no help.
Guys,
Anyone have experience with IND powder coated tips? I received them today and they ABSOLUTELY will not fit. I thought maybe pushing them on would take a little extra force because the clamping tabs were fresh but the diameter is totally different and all it did was scrap off some powder...
I had to drop my exhaust this weekend. All went well except the frozen bolts on the cusco power brace. There was no getting them off and i had to sawzall the brace off and drill out the bolts. I am not sure why the cusco power brace comes with the hex head garbage. Nevertheless as i aim to...
Hey guys, have the annual inspections been expanded to cover more than safety and smog? Do they check for sound now too?
Might be moving back to LI, have an AA dp and AWS resonated exhaust. I guess this will be a problem with the new laws now?
Has anyone experienced the “oil reset impossible” while also receiving the “oil service due” alert?
i changed the oil back in august but could not reset because the service was due in september. I didnt drive in september and just started the car now. The service overdue pops up but reset is...
i just shipped my car cross country and my friend took receipt. He alerted me to my locks not working. both the key fob and the lock button on the door would not engage the actuators. He made sure all the doors and trunk were closed (trunk had to be popped from the trunk button). The car started...
anyone out in washington register a car from out of state? I know the smog testing ended a few years ago both for registration renewal and transferring a car but what out moving a car in from another state?

By chance does anyone know the part number for the front tow hook cover? I thought i was good at finding this stuff but apparently 90118-WA396 was NOT the part number
Anyone in the seattle area? What is it like owning a supra out there? Do they come down hard on mods? Is the excise tax a killer? I might need to move out there for a bit and am debating bring the supra out or not.
looking to sell red ftp charge pipe. It is used and there is some scratches and a slight dent from trying to tighten the rubber hose. Everything is pictures, please inspect carefully what you see is what you get. Reason for selling? The problem is that you will get oil in the charge pipe from...
I have some concerns regarding the OEM charge pipe. I reinstalled it and it seems to be solidly connected. But from under the car part of the flange is showing. I do not know if this is normal. No matter how much I pull on it I cannot get it to plug in further.
Can anyone verify if this is ok...
It looks like I just received a second coffee table book. It is the same size and shape as the first one but I only opened the shipping box and did not unwrap the GR supra box inside. The book has an MSRP of 200- I am not sure if this is going out to everyone or just people that bought launch...
Disclaimer, obviously I am not running an MST intake without a cover on it. The pictures are for placement only.
1. We all know by now why the BMS intake is not recommended as it sits in a cover-less stock airbox and will suck in all the hot engine air.
2. It has also been established that...
Has anyone noticed if the stock charge pipe leaks oil? The pipe accumulates oil due to blowby and it is not seen as an issue, but has anyone noticed if the buildup of oil makes it past the quick disconnect seal and drips onto the pan at the bottom of the engine?
the stock pipe has a pretty...
