That's what everyone says until they get carjacked. It's always fine until it's not fine. I hear that from people in LA all the time who say "I drive through south central LA all the time, it's totally safe." Then they are surprised when they get carjacked or shot. I live in an affluent area...
They are still tweaking the tune but I was told that they expect 500whp on 91oct and close to 600whp on e85. One thing they had to do was swap out the stock rear tires for R888R since the car has no traction now and just spins the stock tires very easily.
Evasive Motorsport is in SoCal but would be worth the drive. They have built multiple Supras customers, SEMA, Formula Drift, Global Time Attack etc., and just finished my friendās Supra (full bolt-on plus Pure Turbo upgrade). I also have extensive personal experience with them doing work on my...
So you didnāt run into any weird tranny / shifting / launch control problems? I thought that was a major limiting factor for some of the other builds.
What did you do for tuning the transmission? Isn't that something that a lot of people have problems with? Launch control won't work, or it won't go full boost after 1st gear, etc. Watching the YouTube videos of various people running the 1/4 mile in the Supra seemed to show they all had issues...
Iām surprised people here are ok with just getting a base tune or OTS map. I come from the GT-R world and none of us would take a flash like BM3 over custom tuning with Cobb or ECUTEK. In fact, most of us donāt use OTS maps with Cobb or ECUTEK either. There is too much HP left on the table with...
Donāt forget perhaps the biggest reason to lease a car which is the ability to write off the lease if you own your own business. Everyone that is self employed leases because you can write it off. That makes leasing significantly better as a financial decision vs buying. What I usually do is...
There seems to be a good number of Supras selling for several thousand under MSRP on Cargurus and Autotrader these days. Might be about time to pull the trigger on one of these now.
Iāve had my GT-R since 2012. FBO E85 and 600+ whp. I also have a 2016 M3 Competition. Swapped my M3 with my friendās MKV Supra (with downpipe and tune) and loved it. Great car. Sound was way better than my M3 and it was faster. I didnāt love the auto tranny though. Wish it was a DCT. Overall a...
My apologies to the moderators. I didn't think my thread was posting and inadvertently posted it 5 times. Lol. Sorry. Please delete the redundant threads.
