Does that setup have any effect in bumpsteer at all?

Jackie Ding has mentioned multiple times you can get a proper alignment to have that sorted.

I've only dealt with a bit of bumpsteer in the rear when the car didn't have any modifications on it.

Some updates for you guys.

Had a bit of a mishap at Laguna Seca. Carried too much speed into the corkscrew and overshot it just a bit and bent a few suspension pieces. Tire got shredded and liner caught on fire but luckily not too much damage. Waiting on a harness from Germany but it doesn't affect driving whatsoever. Swift helper springs should be in today or tomorrow so the car should be up and running this week for another event at Thunderhill on 8/23.

Car looks awesome with these TE37s I got through my homie Tom at SpeedImageUSA. Custom spec'd 1 of 2 in Mag Blue with the other set being in Socal.

Big shoutout to StudioRSR for the rollcage and Silicon Valley Bimmer for the install. There's a rear four point trapezoid brace that hasn't been installed yet. It came afterwards and I haven't had time to do it so I'll get around to it soon.

Got my BoostLogic catless downpipe and EcuTek from Marshall. Haven't had the time to install or tune the car yet (probably won't until late September) but Marshall and John both reached out to make sure all was good. Can't beat that kind of customer service!

The guys over at ArtOfAttack will be shipping their old Revamp Composites splitter to me. I was contemplating combining it with the Verus Engineering front lip when it is released but we'll see where that goes. Verus Engineering diffuser and a custom swan neck setup soon after and will be looking into a chassis mount through the trunk.

WOW your car is beautiful! The photos in your first post are wallpaper worthy!

Fancy!

Thanks for the help on the build.

If you guys need some proper fitting 18in TE37 for the Supra, message Tom!

She’s alive from my little mishap at Laguna Seca. Still a few hiccups to sort out but up and running which is all that really matters right now. Decided to widen the rears from a 295 to 315 on Nankang AR1. Alignment isn't fully dialed in just yet but it'll have to do since I'm on a time crunch for a track day.

Ordered a handful of stuff today.

C&R LTR/Heat Exchanger
Verus Engineering AOS
KoyoRad Radiator

First real shakedown at Thunderhill West! Car does still have some issues that I'm working out but all in all, it did well. The rear squats a little more than I like and I'll need to account for aero when it's done also.

ArtOfAttack/Revamp Composites Custom Front Lip - will be paired with Verus once their lip is released
Verus Engineering Washer Fluid Cap
Verus Engineering AOS
PWR/CR LTR/HE
KoyoRad Radiators will be coming in soon

Can you post more pictures and details on the spl parts! Love your build!

Not too many pictures since I haven't been under the car in a bit. They're titanium pieces and I personally think they were worth every penny. They'll give you all the adjustment you'll ever need. I got them through Jackie Ding!

Turner from SPL customer service is amazing also. They're reworking the upper lateral arm and should have it sent out soon.

A few photos from my day at Buttonwillow on 9/12 and a small photoshoot I did with my friend @kebinchow

Car did great and I can't wait to go back and try to hit that sub2!

I've gotten quite a few messages about my TE37 Sagas. They're custom spec 1 of 2 ordered through my buddy Tom at SpeedImageUSA in Fremont CA. I will be putting this set of Sagas up for sale as I'd like to get closer to a square setup.

Let me know if you're interested - they'll be taken off the car in December! Locals preferred but we might be able to work something out!

What happened to the upper arm?

Good looking build! Damn that corkscrew, I lost my m235 comin gout of it and hit the barrier, made a lot more damage than you had

Wheels will be on tonight, CKS Suspension & SPL Catalog all fully installed. Spherical bushings definitely make a lot more noise but the car feels great. We also were able to get the StanceParts tankless cup setup installed giving me 2 to 2.5 inches of lift adjustment.

The StudioRSR rollcage arrived and is being put into the car as I'm making this post. Unfortunately, the additional rear brace wasn't sent with my package for some reason so that'll have to be installed next time. Bummer. I got tired of waiting for the full Eibach anti-roll kit so I just ordered the Cusco front sway (only front as I feel the rear is stiff enough with my current setup) which I'll be installing tomorrow right before an alignment. Straight to the hotel with my friends for the track day weekend.

Aero wise, Angel from ArtOfAttack got back to me and he'll be shipping me the splitter probably next week - I'll have to fabricate some brackets for the install but no issues there. VerusEngineering dive planes and diffuser will be on next week also. Marshall from Visconti offered me an insane price of a DP + tune so I pulled the trigger on that also. Still working on the swan neck so stay tuned.

I'll update this post with photos tomorrow!

What noises are you hearing because of the Spherical bushings ?
