  2. JB4 caused limp mode and then no-start

    Just had quite a scare on the day after I got the NHTSA safety recall taken care of when I plugged my JB4 back in. Overall, things seemed fine, but after about 10 miles car went into limp mode, I drove it home and parked to figure out what was going on. A few minutes later I tried to restart...
  3. NHTSA Recalls (Aug 3, 2021) - Remedy Available

    Got my Supra back after the computer reflash. Pretty smooth, changes that I see are full-screen CarPlay, and a huge red banner on the backup camera view that says "BACK" as if that wasn't evident. All my radio station presets got wiped out, but my bluetooth settings did not. And I now remember...
  4. NHTSA Recalls (Aug 3, 2021) - Remedy Available

    Really surprised! But the good news is that I'm at Costco picking up a 75inch TV. It definitely wouldn't have fit in the Supra.
  5. NHTSA Recalls (Aug 3, 2021) - Remedy Available

    My Supra is at the dealership today for the recall. They said it was their second one and the first one took 2-3 hours, so they gave me a service loaner. It's a Highlander. It certainly does not accelerate, corner, or brake like a Supra.
  6. Cool accessories?

    Just added a full set of Verus cap covers under the hood: coolant, washer fluid, gas cap, A/C, oil, HE. Adds a bit of color to all that black. Cost about $250. Granted, no one sees it until the hood's up but it's fun.
  7. Any Canadians looking for a Refraction blue A91

    Wow. I'll sell a mine to a Canadian for 10% less than that :p. I only live 2 hours from the border.
  8. PNW Sightings Thread

    I was cruising around yesterday in my Refraction Blue A91 and happened to find a Launch Edition driven by a someone in the middle of a 3,000 mile road trip taking them through most of the Western US. The owner works for a contractor to Toyota USA and was able to pick the # of the Launch Edition...
  9. Stock top speed without vmax?

    I happened to be in a safe, no traffic location yesterday and hit 158 on the dash, but 163 according to GPS. It was still pulling, but I ran out of room and had to slow. I've got a couple of mods on mine, a JB4 with EWG connection running Map 3, and an Injen intake. Also, in my experience, the...
  10. PNW Sightings Thread

    Saw a couple of you guys last Saturday on Ruston Way in Tacoma. One white, one grey. I was headed northbound in my Refraction Blue, you guys were heading south a few cars apart. First time I've actually seen another MkV on the road.
  11. Salvage & Wrecked Supra Registry

    Luckily not mine, whew.
  12. Keeping stuff from flying in the trunk?

    I purchased the 2 Compartment one.
  13. Best Tires For 500-600whp

    Sure glad I live in Seattle where it never rains. No but seriously, I'm getting good info from these responses and grateful for this community's willingness to share their experience and knowledge.
  14. B58 JB Plus Quick Install Tuner ....

    I got a great deal on mine from one of the forum members, so definitely yes. Even at retail, I would say so. The increase in power from map 1 (roughly the same as JB+) and map2 and map 3 is pretty amazing. I also like being able to log and see what's going on with ignition timing and boost...
  15. B58 JB Plus Quick Install Tuner ....

    I had (well still have, but unused) a JB+ installed for a couple of weeks but got the upgrade bug and ended up getting a JB4. My 2021 Supra has a locked ECU so a piggy-back is my only option. I didn't have any issues with it, and while I don't have official dyno numbers, there was definitely a...
  16. Really no way to check oil condition, just electronic oil level?

    The 2021 Supra is my first car with electronic "dipstick" for oil. Without a physical dipstick, is there any way to check oil color/condition? I get that oil level is an important thing to measure, but on my other cars I generally pulled the dipstick every few weeks not just to check level but...
  17. First weekend with free time to play and....

    My first weekend not working in months, installed intake, charge pipe, and JB4 a couple of weeks ago and was looking forward to getting out to a remote road to do logs for Terry @ BMS, and wake up to this. BTW, in my neighborhood the houses were built in the 1900-1910 era, so no garages.
  18. How much do you pay for car insurance?

    My supra is $451 per six months with $500k liability, comprehensive, and collision, all at $250 deductible. I also have a household with a 22 year old son, which makes all coverages expensive. My 2021 Supra replaced a 2013 M3 and the M3 was more expensive to insure. Wife's 2018 Subaru Outback...
  19. Carrying a Bicycle

    I think I found the model for you: SeaSucker Komodo Drift - YouTube
  20. Carrying a Bicycle

    I think a Sea Sucker is about the only thing that would work, and I'm guessing only one would fit. Here's Sea Sucker's website. They have adapters for thru axles and QR, but your front wheel has to go into the trunk. I think a 700C/29er would fit in the hatch area. Disclaimer: I have never...
