    So I usually drive around with all the nannies on. When I take long sweeping turns every now and and gently accelerate into the turn I can see the track to control kicking on. I know this means the rear end is slipping out, but this happens on rare occasions, and the nanny always catches it...

    I have an oil extractor I use in my 944 Porsche turbo because it has a dipstick and I can go down the dipstick tube and extract the oil. Easy Peezy, however, on the Supra there is no dipstick.

  6. Oil pick up

    Correct me if Iā€™m wrong. But is it correct that the oil in the oil pan gets picked up by the pick up and first goes through the oil filter prior to being distributed to the engine?

  12. Question regarding burbles and popping/crackling sound

    So I get the basis of the burbles and popping sound when the car shifts or is decelerating, but once you put on an aftermarket DP and get tuned the pops and crackles can be quite loud. My question is, can these loud, for lack of a better description, explosion of up burnt fuel, cause damage to...

    So I added an AA catted DP a couple of weeks ago and tonight I went stage 2.

Could this be the cells coming apart? Any...

    So I purchased the remote unlock and OTS tune from Visconti. I got in the mail the Ecutek hardware and the remote unlock drive hardware today.

    Itā€™s a bit too loud for me and I could never quite get it to fit properly, but that might have to do with The fact that I was installing it myself and had no help, and with my back problem I was limited to my time under the car.

    So we go to a Toyota dealership to start to look for my kids first car, and sitting out there on the lot is a new supra. So I asked the guy how much was that being sold for and he tells me $68k!
