[Twisted Tuning]

I am still undecided in between mhd and bootmod, but those numbers look really good

just decide on MHD, and be done.

They guy we were quoting has an A90 Supra. Goose's car is also A90 Supra and so is mine. The dyno sheet Goose posted was his A90 Supra so it is A90 and not J29.

Show me a90 in the vin and I will shut up. I can show you a80 in mine and a70 on my old car.

Somebody needs to switch to decaf. Haha I've also owned 2 A80's.

Yeah click on his posts and you can get a pretty good idea of what we are working with here. Haha.

Show me the J29 in the vin.

It is referred to as both A90 and J29 as far as I can see, and as A90 far more commonly in the community and also from Toyota themselves, even the camo car was covered in A90. I reckon the best people to decide if it should be called A90 is Toyota themselves, no?

Why join this forum if this car gets under your skin? It's like purposely pricking yourself but then complain about the pain.

Because SF is dying so the trolls need to find a new platform.

I know right? Toyota has never called a Supra by the "mark" designation, yet I don't think I've ever heard anyone yell out "look, an A80 Supra!" I always have heard "Mark 4 Supra". I would argue that most people probably have no clue what A80 even means lol.

........

I respect the opinions of the og, like ken, theodore, stu etc...but almost everybody else is a keyboard warrior.if I learned something about the mkiv is that for every 1 fast supra there are 10 slow ones(many full of issues and Chinese crap)

Toyota doesn't build fast or exciting vehicles anymore, they are in the market of building reliable vehicles for the masses. Would I have wanted a supra built by toyota? I don't know, Toyota's are heavy, their interiors are crappy...(the gtr are super crappy).

So I am not mad at their decision, I would have been happy with a 2jz with a modern head, and turbos, and have everything else be bmw...

One of the most honest posts I've seen, many that throw tantrums refuse to look at the bigger picture of what Toyota is now vs what they were back in the early 90's. Stock price has tripled, leadership changed. They are the #1 auto manufacturer in the world, they are sticking with what works for the and investing heavily in EV, Hybrid, etc....yes they can "afford" to build an in-house Supra but to make decent sales volume they would risk loss even though the bread and butter cars like the Camry and Rav4 would more than make up for it. Some would say they risked their reputation using BMW for this car but I'm sure somewhere their financial data favored this risk vs in house. I wish it was in house too but I'm over it, I still have other Toyota's in my household other than my MKIV and will continue to buy and support them.

In the UK Toyota called the 'launch edition' the 'A90'. Therefore, I'll call it the A90.
