  1. Do I really need this at 30k miles?

    Use Top Tier rated fuel and/or simply pour a bottle of fuel injector cleaner that contains high amounts of P.E.A. (polyether-amine) into your tank every few thousand miles. The Top Tier fuels are recommended by various auto manufacturers due to a minimum level of detergents included in the fuel...
  2. Should i get paint correction before ppf?

    While some PPF brands have an integrated hydrophobic layer, ceramic coating over top of the film is the move. This addresses some of the flatness in appearance you get from transparent plastic sitting on top of a clearcoat and adds some additional UV protection. The coating also helps seal the...
  3. A90 Supra Brake Pads / Rotors / Fluid

    Youā€™re looking for ā€œhygroscopicā€. :) This is also exactly why the wet boiling point is so important since the fluid immediately starts attracting water as soon as itā€™s out of the sealed container.
  4. Best exhaust systems in the market??

    Agreed. I became uninterested after I saw that. In practice it seems to operate like two different single exit systems merged together as opposed to a valved dual exit if that makes sense. Definitely looking more at the SHS or the Ark Performance systems now.
  5. Dash Camera Discussion / What Dash Cams are you guys using?

    Viofo A139 Pro front and rear. Works well, but I had known the A229 Pro was about to come out. Wouldā€™ve been nice to have a 2K rear Starvis sensor as opposed to 1080P and the other minor improvements.
  6. Removing A-Frame to wire a dash cam

    The routing illustration shown earlier looks like it drops the wiring right in front of the side airbag. Itā€™s so easy to remove the a-pillar cover, that I donā€™t see any real point in avoiding it. Behind the a-pillar cover, thereā€™s an existing wiring harness behind a metal shield that you can...

  9. Front PPF and ceramic coating in Tulsa area

    Iā€™m using Auto Distinctions to change the color of my roof to gloss black, full front end PPF, paint correction, and ceramic coating. Drove straight from the dealership there. Iā€™ve been happy with their work on a couple other vehicles I own.
  10. Any reason to NOT switch to 5w30?

    These days, Iā€™d think the specific oil wouldnā€™t be the root cause of an issue or itā€™d be rare. The one exception being systems that are hydraulically actuated by oil. From other platforms, thatā€™s stuff like variable cam timing, lash adjusters, timing tensioners. Those or similar items can be...
  11. Any reason to NOT switch to 5w30?

    Just like anything else. Pay to play. You deviate from recommendations or whatā€™s specified by the manufacturer then you accept that you might become your own warranty. šŸ˜‚ I donā€™t advocate fraud, but I suppose you could do an oil change before dropping off the vehicle. Granted, the dealer might...
  12. Any reason to NOT switch to 5w30?

    No, Iā€™ve advocated for using oil analysis as a tool for validating an oilā€™s performance in your particular scenario. If your oil is staying within normal temperature ranges and you have positive oil analysis results then youā€™re probably already at the point of no or diminishing returns. If...
  13. Any reason to NOT switch to 5w30?

    Regardless of the EPA, engine engineering and oil formulation as well as viscosity go hand in hand. There are many valid reasons for running different viscosities, but ā€œbecause x viscosity is like waterā€ or because ā€œgrand pappy ran 60w in his hot rodded Ford Flatheadā€ are not objective...
  14. Any reason to NOT switch to 5w30?

    So many people going against manufacturer recommended oil viscosities just because they ā€œfeelā€ the recommended oil is too thin because they do occasional autocross or track days. Iā€™ll start by saying I have no problem with anyone using whatever oil or other products they want in their vehicle...
