Had the same exact issue recently.
Replaced just rears; was running 265/40/18 MPSS front & 295/40/18 NT555G2.
VSC kicking on in turns that a bus could take no problem. Car also felt speed-wobbly at any speed over 90.
Did that nightmare for a week; got 275/40/18 NT555G2 fronts and now the car...
Everyone I know, including myself, have ran whatever aftermarket exhausts weāve wanted. I personally run Tomei single-exit in SoCal with stock cat.
Unfortunately, it boils down to pure luck and awareness. You can get pulled over even with stock exhaust if youāre in sport mode.
Based off what I...

1. authentic TRD front lip w/ satin PPF
- like-new from Japan for ~$1300
- it is perfect quality like previous TRD carbon fiber parts Iāve ran
- added Slip-lo on the undersidesā itās still a daily!
2. Carbnforme trunk spoiler
- love, love, love the design

Iām almost 99% certain that this particular SP1R catback is just a MK4 Tomei canister w/ new piping. Not necessarily a bad thing since cost is still under $2000.
A couple of our guys are getting this exhaust for 30-40% off after meeting some SP1R reps at GR Movement, so they are nice people...
Finally replaced the stock steering wheel with a VERY lovely handmade, OEM-core-based wheel (thanks @NitroYellowMKV)!
The OEM steering wheel is honestly not that bad, but it certainly does not fit the fantastic driving experience these cars provide.
With this new wheel, I get:

San Diego Cars & Coffee.
We had so many GR Supras that I lead us to the overflow lot immediately.
The hosts, however, had us park right by their shop instead. I believe there was slightly over 20 of us that day
Rexpeed V2 paint-matched canards installed. Unexpectedly, it turns out they are carbon fiber. Paint match is an 8ish/10, which is pretty good considering price & delivery time. Fitment is perfectly flush and even with how I installed them (lots of painterās tape & measuring).
I was a little...
Stokedā particularly for the intake.
Not that it is a deal breaker, but any Interest in getting it to be CARB-legal? I know Dinan has always been seen as OEM+, so figured Iād askā¦

Tomei USA =/= Tomei Japan
(long story, but QC-related)
Tomei USA is actually referred to as āReal Speed Engineeringā when shopping JDM vendors/websites.
One of the reasons I went single-exit Tomei, besides looks & sound, is to avoid dual tip fitment headache.
To be fair, vast majority of...
Finally switched out the heavy ass OEM catback for a Tomei single-exit. I am not planning on switching out the OEM downpipe any time soon, so the aggressiveness of the Tomei single-exit worked out fantastically for me. Cold-starts, surprisingly, are not that bad. I live in a quiet neighborhood...
