Race Tracking Your Supra - Information exchange

Nope, 6 port is fine too.

Although now that I look closer at it, looks like it does rub. About a 1/4" gap toward the bottom but not enough to where it won't rub. This is probably the rattle I hear every now and then.

Yes that is exactly where I saw it contact and I will pound it out and re-install.

I pounded it flat in that area with a rubber mallet and now have a good inch or more. It makes no sense to remove it from a functional stand point.

I'll do the same one of these days. Probably sooner than later haha. Need to get the resonator delete too.

Thought everyone might find this interesting, Doteki Auto solutions is developing an oil cooler kit for the A90 along with their LPF system to help fuel starve. If I remember correctly the LPF system is on sale but this is the first I've heard of the oil cooler kit

Does the LPF system completely cure fuel starvation? I only ask because next season I'm going to be on a much stickier tire.

Not liking that they’re adding filter relocation kit with the coolers. Relocating the filter is adding more points of possible failure/leaks with all the extra connection points.

I think on their website it mentioned it was good down to like 15% of a tank? I'd have to check. But I do remember it saying they tested it below half tank and it worked.

Very fair point, I feel like anytime I read about a sandwich plate or some sort of adapter there's always horror stories about leaks. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

I'll definitely look into this

I just saw this post on their insta story, looks like it works quite well. Really curious to see the data!

That would be awesome.

Definitely interested in it if it really works.

+1 would also be interested.

Not to beat on a dead horse but this car really does rotate. I got off track last saturday for the first time I think in 10 years. The track was slick with the drizzle and a corvette that had dumped all 8L of oil on the racing line.

I do lap with VSC/TC fully off (long press) and I am running jb4/dp so the car is extra spicy. Doesn't help that I am on practically destroyed stock PSS. Hopefully once I install RE71rs, I can start getting into the throttle much earlier because anything over 50-60% throttle at this point results in oversteer.

Not sure an RE71RS would be a great track day tire. Even at autocross they get greasy and lose speed after a couple runs on a hot day.

What would be an alternative then while lapping? I cant get Nankang CR-S in the sizes I'd like
