  1. Another L for the Z, NISMO edition

    Agree. The 90’s was when the Japanese manufacturers poured money into showcasing their engineering and styling. Personally, the Z32 and Acura NSX (NA1, NA2) are what started my love affair with sports cars. The first time I saw them in 92 on the street, I was in awe and in love.
  2. Mission Tuning at home B58 Gen 1 + Gen 2 unlock via M-Link

    While you wait for yours to arrive, you should read the M-Link User Guide and prepare yourself: https://missiontuning.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/MLink/pages/688383/M-Link A few notes from my unlock experience: Mission had a bad batch of PD power banks to power the M-Link. I didn’t want to wait...
  3. Mission Tuning at home B58 Gen 1 + Gen 2 unlock via M-Link

    The OP probably already answered your question(s), but my M-Link came in yesterday and I did the unlock this afternoon. Before I unlocked it, I backed up my DME via Super Unlock license. It took less than 5 min to backup and less than 15 seconds to unlock. Now, I wait for Mission support to...
  4. Mission Tuning at home B58 Gen 1 + Gen 2 unlock via M-Link

    I just ordered the M-Link bundle (Super Unlock & tune) for my 2022 A/T. šŸ¤ž
  5. Need Some Help With Bimmercode Problems

    Reviving this thread because I only had Comfort & Sport Individual modes (and lost Sport mode) after I did an I-Step update. The HU settings configure what to display in the UI. The BDC settings configure what driving modes you have. In my case, I had to code the BDC this way to get...
  6. Any interest in guide to doing ISTEP update yourself?

    Had the same experience w/ my laptop and Windows 11 Home. I checked the Windows Event Viewer and it logged this exception & stack trace each time I attempted to start ISTA: It turned out that I had Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2015 (x86, x64) installed, but I also needed VC++...
  7. Went from Supra to Gallardo

    I hope you’re joking. The gas cap is solid aluminum with Lamborghini inscribed on it. It has enough performance with a more exciting driving experience.
  8. Went from Supra to Gallardo

    Congrats, I owned a Super G 14 years ago. Listening to the starter whine for a couple of seconds before the V-10 roars to life is definitely something. Word of advice- never put the gas cap on top of a fuel pump when pumping gas. Because if you forget about it, then it’s a $500 gas cap. 😬...
  9. No, I do not want to street race…

    Well, this happened outside my neighborhood late Friday night and killed power in a 1 mile radius. The speed limit on that 6-lane road is 45mph (it used to be 55mph until accidents started occurring more frequently). I’m not saying they were street racing, but you’d have to be going really fast...
  10. Simple Bump Steer Fix?

    FWIW- A buddy and I were talking about this the other day. He rented a Supra and drove it on the Nurburgring back in 2019 and commented about the rear bump steer. Some time later, the owner of the rental company (and Supra) posted this video in his YT channel:
  11. Toyota makes GR cars for track enthusiasts, lol.

    FWIW- My buddy tracked TF out of his 991 GT3. During his ownership, he got a new engine, then about a year later, a new PDK transmission. He recently sold his GT3 for what he bought it for and took delivery of a 992 GT3.
  12. 5w40 motor oil

    FWIW, this is from the B58 Technical Reference Manual from BMW. It makes no mention of oil weight- just LL-01 or LL-04 approval.
  13. Cruise to SIV via Route 66 from Central TX

    I don’t live far from Toyota HQ - got an ETA on when y’all are gonna be there on Sunday? My neighbors own a bar about 15 min north of there, would be a great place for drinks and pizza. My best friends own The Highlander Public House in Wichita Falls. They’re located near the highway. Give’em a...
  14. Oil Change

    Oil should be thin as possible, and thick as necessary. For street driving, I would stick with the factory GR 0W-20. For the the track, I would switch to a 0W-40 or 5W-40. In the grand scheme of things, SN Plus or higher is more important.
  15. 2024 GR Supra 45th Anniversary Special Edition Unveiled

    Typical Toyota marketing dept at its best. This is like the TRD PRO of Supra - give it special color and appearance package and charge a premium. The side decal is reminiscent of the Lambo Super G.
  16. Experiences with temporary paint protection for road trip

    I've used this on my 4Runner to protect the sides from pin striping: https://www.roadwarriorplus.com A buddy of mine used it on his Diablo 6.0 for a canyon run and loved it.
  17. Auto Off Not Working

    Battery may be weak for auto start/stop to function so it’s disabled until it is fully charged by the alternator.
  18. Official A90 Supra life cycle thread: updates, new variants, 2026 final model year?

    Not every consumer has a garage. And crash testing is more involved in financial and other resources from Toyota & BMW, than slapping on a rollbar and calling it day.
  19. Official A90 Supra life cycle thread: updates, new variants, 2026 final model year?

    I’m not confident for a sport roof because of a couple of things: a) crash testing, b) storage of the roof.
