TBK's Time Attack Build: MK-BRX

[TBK]

how is the install and what not for it. i was looking into it but the company isn't really informative on it. i really hate having to connect my mhd just to look at what my temps, afr, and eth content are when driving

Just did the install, worst part is the junction box wiring. There's no room to work and no slack in the wiring.

This is definitely one thing i had no intention of doing myself. There is a not so insignificant chance of the car spontaneously combusting if i get into any wiring work

Getting this installed so i can have access to Android Auto. Expensive, but worth it.

It's about 3 hours of work, and no i'm definitely not doing it for the same reason i didn't install the canchecked. Me and wiring = bad idea

Femto guys were in town, so got my ECU locked. Tinkering with some OTS maps for now. Will get a custom tune a little bit later when more parts are piled on. Doesn't seem necessary to get a custom tune for what is essentially stage 1.

Lucky! they happened to be in town, unlock... geez. the pirks of livin Dubai!

None in Florida either. Both places I’d rather visit or just live in the winter months. Conversely Wyoming, South Dakota or Tennessee don’t have income tax and would be nice in the summer ?. I’m just day dreaming of being a snow bird. Someday….

But you guys have state income tax though, right? We literally have no income tax of any kind. What you make is what you take home.

I used to like summer more than winter....but man summer in Dubai is not OK. Makes Florida looks tame.

We have Federal tax (like everyone) but no State

seems the older i get, the more i despise the cold. i can do anything in the Heat. Not necessarily the same in cold. I'm an outdoor Beach Volleyball player.

Got an alignment yesterday. running about -2.7 camber in the front, which should be enough to clear the wheels/tire combo once the wheels arrive.

Not overly concerned with this 1st go-around, because i know i'm going to visiting the alignment shop quite often to tweak.

Got some new wipers. Stock ones are garbage

Best color imo. Especially with that tan, camel, whatever they call it interior ?

I really don't like my tan interior tbh

Best color on the Supra will for me will always be black. It's a menacing looking car, and so black just works. Blue would be my 2nd favorite. This shade of grey probably third. I like red too, but I was forced into owning a red bike (only available in red and yellow) and so now I have a grudge against red vehicles.

Damn I was hoping you woulda said red was ur absolute fav & want to trade my beautiful matte phantom grey with red interior - for your ugly CU Later grey & tan ?
