No I don't see that part

Took me a few hours to install.

These came in during the weekend! They are infamous Work Meister S1 in TItanium Gold (HPG) Supra Spec 19x9.5 +24 / 10.5 +31 they'll be wrapped in Falken FK510 265/35, 285/35 on Wed. After the tires are mounted, I'll ceramic coat them with Gtechniq c5.

I put the decals on

Here's a little teaser:

Ceramic coated both sides of the rims last night. Waiting for them to cure.

(aerofabb 380 lbs @ 120mph, verus 150 lbs @ 120 mph).

Yea, aerofabb is living in fantasy land, so is verus if it's on a close to stock height Supra. The real track boys are spacing the verus splitter down 1-1.5" so it actually does something. I can tell when mine "activates" and it sure as hell ain't at normal height.

Finally did the CDV delete! World of difference!! Highly recommended for the MT bois!

It came out together just like this lol!

Installed this beautiful boost gauge! As an 80's baby I wanted that old school mechanical look. The needle and digital gauge was a perfect mix for a new generation car.

Prosport JDM Series 52mm

2 different color modes were a plus

I ordered some wire harness fabric tape to clean up the wires.

Here's a mini DIY of how I routed the boost line and wires.

-Remove the speaker grill, speaker, and center infotainment screen
-Use a wire hanger to fish wires through the dash to the passenger side fuse panel

-Remove the passenger side dash cover
NOTE: I added blue tape to protect anything from getting pierced by the end of the wire hanger

-In the engine bay passenger side, remove this grommet and fish boost sensor wires through

-This is what you should see in the passenger side under the dash where you fished the wire with a screwdriver.
NOTE: Remove the plastic panel to access this and the fuse panel

-Take that wire tape it on the wire hanger (see below) and fish it slowly through the dash until it comes out through the speaker hole

-For the boost line, I had an existing boost tap from my BOV
If you need one https://www.turnermotorsport.com/BMW-Supra/c-1207-bmw-boost-tap

-Route the hose through here (you'll need to open up that grommet with a blade):

I used fuse taps to connect for power and 16 gauge wires to extend the wires from the speaker area

I used a blade and put a notch in the plastic part that surrounds the speaker so the wires fit through

The wires fit nice and snug at the corner where the grill speaker and infotainment meet.

Adjusted the gauge so it sits closer to the infotainment screen:

I just installed Torque Solutions Transmission Mount Bushings from:

This thread describes 99% of how they feel!
https://www.supramkv.com/threads/review-twisted-tuning-a90-supra-upgraded-transmission-mounts.11981/

All the above plus my perspective in the Manuel, but all relative to your level of NVH:

Negatives-
1. Clutch chatter noise
2. Gear engagements/shifts noises
3. Sounds similar to the straight-cut gears whine

Positives-
1. Raw and connected feel like a 90's to early 2000's manuel
2. Loud racecar sounds
3. Shifting through the gears, instant power/engagement with no lag or slop
4. Better response from the clutch (maybe also because I deleted the CVD)
5. Gears feel much more solid, no mushiness, and less rubbery (More notchy and clicks into each gear)
6. Overall response, feel, and engagement is amazing!

There are more positive than negatives but being older I want more of a GT car. This mod just makes it too loud and hardcore for my taste. This would be great for track or serious street cars IMO. This isn't my daily but I love to get groceries and cruise on the weekends in peace and comfort lol.

Its been a while since I've updated my thread. Here are a few updated mods:

Went from Kenji 200 cell to Fi Exhaust Catless (No CEL). More pops and bangs for sure and a louder turbo spool!

TRD Style side Skirts:

JQ Werks Madtrace hub system en route!

P.S. I'll be changing my oil to 5w30. Only the best organic crisco oil!
