@A70TTR have you heard anything lately about a 3 cylinder toyota engine with some good numbers (about 200+ hp) . I have seen magazines saying that a fielder gt four will come with an engine like this.

For some reason I wrote step brothers when I meant half brothers (long day at work). I think that's what describes them the best.
I was thinking of half brothers as well lol

I haven't, but i'm primarily concerned with mostly Lexus stuff now. although I still come across plenty of stuff in the news and from friends sharing stuff with me here and there on social media etc.

Will Lexus offer the V35a in more models for the 2019 MY? I have my eye set on a Q50 if not.

I have the Q50RS and wouldn't hesitate to recommend picking one up (for now). Hopefully that answers your question.

The real question now is if the Non-sport/Silver sport will suffice

I thought about just getting the Silver and adding a tune, but I wanted the extra water pump and dynamic suspension.

You can easily upgrade the Silver to be the same for far less money though...

heh ok i understand. I hope lexus invests in europe too sometime in the future, the brand is almost non existent here . If they downsize enough i believe people will flock to them because of the reliability , but now with these big thirsty engines it is hard to justify such a purchase here.

That is the plan atleast but I may just go with the non-sport. I am reluctant to get a sport model since I despise the sports seats in my G37 in combination with sport suspension and low profile tires. The only the thing I think I will miss is the brakes and paddles, but those are easy upgrades.

I have not; SEMA has been the only scuttlebutt with some validity that I've come across.

I just read in a post on insta by a gentleman claiming to be a Toyota GB community manager to look out for something on October 2, that's why I was wondering... how much knowledge would someone like that have on Supra updates?

Might wanna link his insta or pm A70 so he can give you more clarity on it.

Hi @A70TTR I have noticed something that I'd like your view on. When the B58 came out, amongst the differences to the N55, an additional 20% of boost was mentioned by BMW. Now, the stock boost on the N55 is 8psi odd. That would mean the B58 runs around 9.5 to 10psi. However, I've read that Supra runs 7psi.

I have a few theories as to why it's running such relaxed boost levels but what's your opinion on this :)
